Later that night after the whole ball-datingdating' thing was sorted, everyone slept peacefully, everyone that is except the Tabansi's who were all back in their house plotting how they would kill the Jinn family.

"I say we wait till they are outside and then shoot the mother in the stomach!" Ciel exclaimed.

Maida just shook her head. "No you stupid boy! Tahl will probably be surrounded by Jedi!"

Cala sighed as she listened to those to argue. Nardo held her close and then Niobie the only daughter who was 22 and had long black hair declared.

"Why don't we kill the father first? Then his wife will be helpless."

Dagan just smirked as he watched his family argue with one and another until he had enough.

"Silence all of you!" He commanded and one by one they fell silent and stared at him.

"Look we are getting nowhere and besides your mother does have a point, if we do kill Tahl then Qui Gon and Obi Wan and Selena will hunt you down and kill you."

Nardo sneered at his younger brother who looked hurt and defeated and was staring at the ground.

"Then what father do you suggest we do?" Nonie said impatiently her hands on her hips.

Her father chuckled and then replied seriously.

"You all are perfectly strong but you all except Cala in some ways are no match for Jedi."

There was a sudden outburst of negative cries and Dagan held up his hand and glared at his family before continuing.

"That is why you are all going to be training in the Sith arts."

Everyone was silent and at last, Cala spoke up.

"I thought the Sith were all wiped out?"

Maida grinned and replied. "My dear the Jedi don't teach you much do they?"

"Cala the Sith have never been extinct infact the Sith lord is alive and well and a very good friend of mine, when I explained the problem he said he was more than happy to help, you all will be sent to live in the planet Korriban, where you will be trained and when he thinks you are ready we will complete our plan." Dagan explained.

"When do we leave father?" Ciel asked.

"Next week now your mother and I were thinking about having the wedding next Tuesday, that would be three days before you leave." Dagan told him.

The couple nodded and satisfied the family retired to bed.

The next couple of days were a blur for all the Jedi, the ball was in a couple of hours and unknown to Selena, Cala was now a member of the Tabansi family as they got married and the Tabansi children were away to train in Korriban.

"Right Qui Gon you make sure the boys do not enter my room while the girls are getting ready or there will be hell to pay." Tahl threatened him with a sly grin.

Qui Gon winked at her and then ushered Obi Wan, Kit and Rey into Obi Wan's room.

"Remember Tahl we only have 3 hours." Qui Gon reminded her and she playfully glared at him.

"Shame you'll have needed longer to make your self look pretty!" She remarked and Obi Wan laughed and Qui Gon playfully shoved him into the room and shut the door.

"Ok girls you can take your stuff into my room and you can get ready in there." Tahl told the 3 girls as they grabbed their things and went into her room.

"So Bant what colour is your dress?" Siri asked as she fell onto the bed and opened the box containing her shoes.

"Red what about you?" Bant asked as she pulled out the red halter gown and hung it up.

"Blue." Siri replied as she took it out and hung it beside Bant's.

"Siri its gorgeous!" Bant replied in awe.

Siri smiled and Selena walked out from the refresher.

"Ok I'm finished in there."

"Me next!" Bant screamed like a five year old and ran in and shut the door.

"Aliens." Siri muttered and Bant yelled.

"I heard that!"

Siri grinned at Selena and Selena helped her mum get ready. Tahl swept her hair up into a bun and then Selena and Siri helped her change into her green gown.

"Pass me my shoes." Tahl asked Siri and she gave her them.

Tahl slipped them on and told the two girls.

"I used the refresher before you came so I wouldn't have to wait."

Selena slipped on her undergarments and then put her dress on. She then sat down and put her shoes on.

"Ok Jinn what you gonna do to your hair? The unbrushed look was so last year!" Siri teased.

Selena stuck her tongue out at Siri and replied.

"I'm gonna curl it what about you?"

"My hair is naturally straight and I'm keeping it that way." Siri replied.

An hour passed and Siri was still waiting to get into the refresher.

"BANT! YOU'VE BEEN IN THERE FOR AN HOUR!" Siri shouted as she banged on the door.

Bant opened the door and Siri stepped past her.

"I love annoying her; she's so cranky at this time of year!" Bant said happily as she bounded over and finished getting ready.

Meanwhile the men had an easier time getting ready they all wore black dress robes (A/N- like in Harry Potter only not like Ron's! lol) they stepped out into the living room and sat down.

"Master why do women take so long to get ready?" Obi Wan asked puzzled.

"I have no idea Padawan but I'm guessing that they want to look their best." Qui Gon replied.

"What time does this start at?" Kit asked bored.

"20.00 hours." Rey told him.

"Ok they have been in there for an hour and a half and its 18.45!" Kit whined.

"Kit you're always so whiny! Obi Wan teased and Kit used the Force to fling a cushion at Obi Wan who used the force to stop it and aimed it back at Kit. Qui Gon stopped them and chuckled.

"You two are supposed to be 17 not 7!"

At quarter to seven, the four women were ready.

"Ok when we go out there relax and everything will be ok." Tahl told them as she opened the door and stepped out she called.

"Ok we're ready.

"FINALLY!" Kit exclaimed.

The other three and Tahl rolled their eyes at him and when the three younger women stepped out the three male Padawans jaws dropped to the floor.

Siri went over to Rey, Selena walked over to Obi Wan and Bant went over to Kit. They all linked arms with their partner and Qui Gon looked at Tahl who glanced at the chrono and announced.

"Right we are going to the Grand Hall so we better head to the turbolifts before they get busy otherwise we're taking the stairs."

"What are we waiting for?" Tahl asked and pulled him out of the door.

Each of the Padawans who were extremely nervous followed quickly and Selena locked the door.

They all got into a lift and went down to the ground floor. They all were silent and Tahl asked aloud.

"Nervous?"

"Yeah." The Padawans answered in unison.

Tahl just smiled and at last they reached the ground floor. They walked until they reached this huge door and Qui Gon opened it.

The scene was amazing, there was lots of tables with food and chairs, surrounding the tables, there was a huge space for dancing and a table at the very front for the Council. (A/N- Picture the Yule Ball from HP and the Goblet of Fire.)

They all walked into the crowded hall and when they reached the bottom of the stars which led into the hall, Tahl took Qui Gon's hand and replied.

"This is where we will be sitting for dinner." She pointed to a table near the back of the hall.

They all nodded and Tahl and Qui Gon left to talk with their friends.

The Ball started at 8pm and everyone was dancing and enjoying themselves. Siri danced with Rey all night and they wouldn't budge when it was time for dinner at 9pm they had to be practically dragged away to their table by Master Windu and Qui Gon until they realized they could dance after dinner. Bant and Kit weren't as bad and Selena and Obi Wan danced in each others arms all night. Tahl enjoyed herself and she realized she was silly for thinking people would think she was fat. Master Yoda even danced with Master Yaddle! Everyone had watch though as they danced wildly and were so tiny that you would probably kill them if you weren't careful!

When the ball ended, Rey escorted Siri to her room.

"Thanks for everything Rey I really enjoyed tonight." Siri blushed as he grinned.

"So did I Siri." He admitted.

He leaned in and kissed her softly on the lips and then he said softly.

"Night Siri."

"Night Rey." She replied dreamily and waltzed happily to her room.

Bant and Kit were laughing as they remembered Master Windu dancing with Master Gallia.

"Well here's my room." Bant said sadly she enjoyed herself so much she wished the ball went on all night.

"I had fun tonight." Kit beamed and she did too.

"Well I'll catch you tomorrow?" Bant asked.

"Sure." Kit replied and he started to walk away when Bant yelled.

"Kit! Wait!"

He turned around and she ran over and kissed him. When she pulled away she grinned

"Night Kit."

Bant smiled triumphantly and returned to her room. She giggled when she heard Kit yell in delight.

"Kit you rock!"

Tahl and Qui Gon turned in all the dancing made her tired.

Selena and Obi Wan were in her room and she was out on the balcony. Obi Wan crept into his room, grabbed the ring, and slipped it into his pocket. He crept up behind her and kissed her neck; she jumped but then relaxed when she realized who it was.

"I had a great time at the Ball tonight." Selena told him as he turned her to face him.

He smiled. "Me too."

Selena sensed he was hiding something from her.

"Obi Wan what's wrong? You seem nervous." Selena questioned him and he looked at her, took a deep breath, and began.

"Selena we've known each other for 6 months and I love you as my girlfriend but.."

"Oh my God you're breaking up with me!" Selena blurted out tears formed in her eyes and Obi Wan laughed stunned.

He held her close, hugged her, kissed her forehead before holding her at arms length, and wiped her eyes.

"Selena don't cry I haven't finished." Obi Wan grinned and now she was confused until he bent down on one knee she gasped as she produced a small black box and opened it to reveal a beautiful silver ring with three pink stones.

"Selena I was going to say I love you as my girlfriend but I want you to become with my wife."

Selena looked at him and she smiled and cried happily.

"Oh Obi Wan! Yes! I'll marry you!" Selena said through her tears of happiness.

Obi Wan got up and slipped the ring on her finger and she kissed him and then took his hand and led her to her bed.

Obi Wan used the force to shut the door and to turn out the lights. That night Selena and Obi Wan made love for the first time.
