Oh, did you all think that this was going to be a story which was focused on various characters?...

...I lied.

Mostly, it will be about Obi-Wan. But if you give me a good prompt, I might write about other characters too. *hint hint* ;-)

Bear

The sun screamed; the stars shut down. And in the midst of all the destruction, as hellfire rained down all around, as the world ended, there was a little girl, wailing.

Recklessly, Obi-Wan leaped from cover and dashed out. The child looked up at him with empty, tired, glazed eyes. "Are you all right?" Obi-Wan shouted over the noise of the explosions. The little one clutched her stuffed bear, clinging to that one familiar thing in her uprooted life. Her expression tore at Obi-Wan's heart. "I'm a friend," he soothed as he lifted her, gently. "Don't be afraid. We're going somewhere safe." At least, safer than this, he amended, mentally. The girl looked up at him, trusting. The look broke his heart, yet at the same time, for the first time in weeks, he finally felt that he was doing the right thing.

They left, of course, a few weeks later. The little girl had no family left to go to, but there were kind people at the orphanage. The little one—he never learned her name—was sad to see him go, but she seemed to grasp, without being told, that he had to leave.

She gave him the bear.

He would keep that bear for the rest of his life.
