Chapter 3
(Enjoy the moment why you still can, for no one knows what may come next)
It was morning and the world was waking, the Lutiast were shedding their leaves andthe people of Trintonomia were waking to their daily routines. It was the same thing day after day and today was no different. Each citizen woke to the brilliance of one brightly shining sun and slowly made the short trek to the town square located in the exact center of the city. No one was out of place, everyone was exactly where they were supposed to be, doing exactly what the next person was doing, no one was different, no one, but Obi-Wan that is. He was the outsider, the only one that stood out among a sea of robots. Even Qui-Gon seemed to fit in among the lifeless creatures. But Obi-Wan had other things on his mind besides the fact that he stuck out like a sore thumb. The young apprentice was looking for danger because at this particular moment, there was nothing better to do.
This is the dullest event in the history of the galaxy.
Listening to politicians talk was not Obi-Wan's idea of a good time. Obi-Wan understood the ambassador's reasons for wanting to inspire his people, but Gentink's speech was boring. There was no enthusiasm, there was no inspiration to stir up the crowd to rally behind their cause; it was just a normal speech in a fairly monotone and droning voice that lulled Obi-Wan nearly to sleep. Rather than listen to the speech, the young Padawan wanted to fight some evil villains, he wanted to be the hero, he wanted everyone to bow at his feet and praise him for his good deeds. Well, that may have been a little exaggerated, and it wasn't exactly Jedi-like for Obi-Wan to think that way, but he couldn't help it. He just wanted to be appreciated by someone, and if everyone was to suddenly start singing 'For he's a jolly good fellow,' well, Obi-Wan couldn't say that he would mind that. He would relish the attention, but then again, in reality, that would never happen. Reality... There was that damn word that always crushed Obi-Wan's dreams. But here he was again, caught at inattention. What would Qui-Gon say? It didn't matter at this moment though, for this was the moment that began a journey that healed two souls, this was the moment where it all began...
"Get down!"
Sorry for the short chapter, I've been kind of busy, but I will update very soon.
