Chapter 8: Danger on the landing platform.

He felt the wind rush through his hair and ears as he flew backwards, the full amount of force that this women had produced surrounding him and building round him like a brick wall. Speaking of brick walls Obi Wan felt his head collide with the one behind him, the lights popped out his eyes as he saw stars flashing around him, and he felt a small trickle of blood seeping down his head. He looked up slowly to see the beautiful red haired lady walking slowly towards him, a small smirk etching upon her face and her eyes penetrating his heart, his very soul. Obi Wan carefully picked himself of the floor and balanced slowly on both feet, wobbling slightly from the loss of coordination, the lights still flashing round in his head.

"So Master Kenobi, we meet again," Manizra said, bearing her teeth at the Jedi Master. Obi Wan felt a spell of confusion over him. 'We meet again' he thought to himself, 'I've never met this women'. He surly would have remembered the bright red hair, the piercing eyes and the amazing figure this woman had but he didn't. He watched as she withdrew her lightsaber, the curved handle similar to Asajj Ventress's, the blade the blood red colour of the Sith and she positioned herself into Ataru and patiently waited for him to withdraw his own sabre from its latch. He carefully took his lightsaber of his belt and ignited it. The blue blade showing the fire in his eyes as he took on the position of Soresu, his sabre over his head and his arm extended. Then he waited.

She ran towards him, sabre in hand and swung for his head forcing him to duck and roll out of the way of the crimson blade. Her lightsaber came at him again giving him no time to react, only time to parry her blows as they smacked down hard on his lightsaber, she was strong and powerful as he defended himself from her, keeping each area of himself defended. Using the force he pushed her back and regained his stance, whilst at the same time regaining his breath and energy. As she was to collide with the wall her feet hit it, and she delicately back flipped and landed a perfect landing, withdrawing her second lightsaber as she went.

She dragged the sabres across the floor, the sparks flaring up round her as she twisted through the air and slammed her sabres down onto Obi Wan, making his knees go weak as though they had been smashed by a bantha. She twisted her leg round his own and tripped him over making him land on his back, and swung her sabres towards his chest. He rolled out the way just in time to see red scorch marks on the ground where he had been just seconds before. He had to contact Anakin but somehow keep himself alive whilst fighting this woman. He let himself drift of into the force, with no eyes to see his own doings; only the force and he let his bond travel through his blood, through his thoughts, its only wish, to find Anakin.


Anakin felt as his young Padawan parried each of his blows as she defended herself from his lightsaber, the sweat pouring of her face but her eyes filled with determination as she swung her lightsaber over her head and flicked Anakin's sabre from his hand, the clatter of it as it hit the floor and skidded across the surface.

"Ha…beat… you… master!" Ahsoka exclaimed, gasping for air as she held her knees, the sweat dripping of her head in beads.

"You alright there Snips!" Anakin said, laughing at his young Padawan who had fallen to the floor, lying there trying to get her breath back.

"I would be Master if you would just help me up" Ahsoka said, looking up at her Master and holding her hand out. Anakin extended his hand and grabbed Ahsoka's hand, which turned her look of tiredness to a smirk as she held tight to Anakin's hand and pulled him to the floor with an incredible force.

Anakin lay on the floor beside her and began to laugh along with his Padawan, who was now rolling around on the floor holding her stomach.

A sudden lurch in the force sent Anakin sitting up his back straight and his face alert. Ahsoka stopped laughing at her Master's silence and watched him carefully, watching him stand up and look up in deep thought. His eyes suddenly widened.

"OBI WAN" he shouted out and ran out the room, using the force to bring his sabre to him.

"Wait for me Master" Ahsoka shouted after him, running out the room.

Anakin was a couple of pace's ahead of her as she struggled to keep up with her Master. They twisted and turned down the corridor and headed towards the landing platform.

'Why are we heading here' Ahsoka thought to herself curiously as the exited the door into an array of sunshine, the white light blinding them temporarily.

Ahsoka turned round to find her Master, seeing him do the same thing, looking round the area for his own Master.

The sudden sound of lightsabers clashing bought the both of them back to their senses as they ran towards the sound, the grunts and slamming of sabres against each other sounding just like the training session Ahsoka had had with her Master just minutes before.

And there she saw it, before her Master. Obi Wan was fighting with a red haired woman, her slender body giving her agility and flexibility over the Jedi Master who was struggling to keep up with her speed, she watched in horror as she knocked his sabre from his hand, watching it clatter to the floor beside him and grip his neck with her hand, lifting him of his feet and clench her fist more. She saw Obi Wan's face turn red as she increased the pressure on his windpipe, his hands carelessly grabbing at his neck to prize the hand of his neck, with no progress being made. Suddenly the red haired lady went flying as Anakin sent a huge force push towards her, making her loose her grip on Obi Wan's throat and drop him to the floor, gasping for air.

Ahsoka ran to him, the sound of her boots clapping along the marble floor as she went. She crouched beside Obi Wan and lifted him carefully.

"Master Obi Wan are you ok?" she asked, watching as he tried to steady his breathing.

"Fine little one." He said carefully picking himself of the floor and using the force to bring his weapon to him.

"Master" Anakin's voice rang around Ahsoka's ears as her Master ran beside her and gripped on Obi Wan shoulders.

"I'm fine Anakin"

"Pff not likely. I saw how that chick was killing you, who was she?"

Obi Wan thought for a while, still stroking his neck to get the air circulation back into his windpipe.

"I don't know Anakin."

Obi Wan walked over and picked up his duffle bag he'd dropped when Manizra had flung him into the wall and headed towards his ship.

"Whoa Master where are you going"

"On my Meditation retreat."

"Not on your own your not. That woman could come try kill you at any time. I'm coming with you" Anakin said, making it obvious that, that was his final answer.

Obi Wan sighed. The time away from the war that he needed and he was spending it with Anakin.

"Fine, but don't do anything…stupid"

"Me stupid. NAH!" Anakin said, laughing at his Master and giving him a small punch on the shoulder.

Anakin walked towards the twilight and pulled Obi Wan along with him, who nervously turned around to make sure a pair of red eyes weren't watching him.

"Hey Master what about me?" Ahsoka shouted after Anakin.

"Be good"

Ahsoka stared at her master. 'Pff be good, I'm better behaved than you are Master' Ahsoka thought to herself walking back towards the temple, only turning round to see the twilight take of and jump into hyperspace.


Anakin pushed the twilight into hyperspace as Obi Wan sat down into a chair, his face clearly tired and his limbs beaten. That woman was powerful; she'd managed to lift Obi Wan into the air as though he were a rag doll and still didn't manage to beat him.

Obi Wan felt his eyelids close slightly as his brain began to turn to sleep mode, his windpipe still hurt and he whimpered in pain as he looked towards his leg to see a gash from the lightsaber. Anakin turned to him and slowly removed Obi Wan's tunic to show the full extent of the damage. The gash was deep and bleeding loads, and as Anakin placed a bactapad onto his Master's leg Obi Wan felt on fire and passed out, only seeing darkness replaced from the light.
