We're Wizards, Not Warriors: What If
Volume 7:
Chapter 8: Duel of the Fates
We then see the planet of Tatooine.
It's daytime once again.
We see everyone in town is off and about, doing their own business.
There's some tension in the air.
There was a line for some people, as they wanted to get a drink from a beverage stand.
A man was about to get his, when Groff Ditcher pushed him out of the way.
Groff said, "something you wanna say?"
Reva, somehow healed of her injuries, approached and said, "I have something to say."
Groff said, "wait your turn. You can have what's left when I'm done."
Reva then slapped the cup from Groff's hand.
Groff took this as a sign to leave.
Reva then walked to the owner of the beverage stand.
"I'm looking for a farmer named Owen", Reva said.
….
Meanwhile….
Vader's star destroyer was chasing after Obi Wan's ship.
….
We then see inside the Star Destroyer.
Vader was standing near the window as he watched the ship both his son and Obi Wan were on.
Vader said, "fire non-lethal blasts upon the ship. I want my son alive!"
"At once, lord Vader", an officer said.
….
Meanwhile, on Roken's ship….
Everyone was worried.
Sam was hugging his father as he whimpered in fear.
"Hyperdrive's almost ready. Move all power to the rear shields. We'll head for Tessen", Roken said.
Hunter said, "let's hope we all make it there intact."
The ship shook some more.
Sam kept hugging Obi Wan as he whimpered in fear.
Obi Wan asked, "we're not gonna make it to Tessen, are we?"
Roken gave a sorrowful look
Aayla tried to comfort Leia.
Obi Wan started glancing around.
He saw various parents try to comfort their children.
It made him look down at his own son.
He saw Sam was shaking in fear as he kept hugging him.
He knew he couldn't let Vader get his son.
"Dad…. I'm scared", Sam whimpered.
Obi Wan said, "I know son…. I know….", Obi Wan then stood up and said, "I'll be back in a moment."
Sam nods his head as Obi Wan pats him on the head.
Obi Wan then walks over to Roken.
Obi Wan asked, "how bad is the damage?"
"Motivator's shot. Power couplings are bad. I'm workin' on it, but those shields won't last forever", Roken said.
Obi Wan asked, "how much time do you need?"
Roken said, "more than we have."
Obi Wan looks over at everyone on the ship.
He had to do something!
He saw his son sitting next to Leia and Aayla.
KeeKee and One-One were doing their best to comfort Sam.
He saw Hunter pacing around.
Roken said, "that little girl keeps their minds off of it. Maybe I should borrow her too."
….
Back on Tatooine….
We then see Owen and Luke enter a store.
The man behind the counter said, "howdy. What do you need, kid?"
"We need a new belt for the speeder", Luke said
Owen said, "a certain somebody broke the last one."
The man chuckled, "your uncle's a patient man."
"I'm not that patient", Owen said.
Luke rolled his eyes.
That's when Owen heard someone say, "Owen?"
Owen turned to see the owner of the beverage stand.
He said, "there's something you need to know."
….
We then cut back to the chase in space.
Obi Wan was standing before Sam and Leia.
"No dad! You can't go! I won't let you leave", Sam cried.
Obi Wan said, "I'm the one that Vader wants. If I go, he will follow. Especially since he obviously won't order the ship destroyed with you on it."
"No! No way! You can't just leave us here", Leia cried.
Sam said, "we're not letting you!"
Obi Wan said, "Leia, Sam, please."
Sam asked, "what happened to all of us staying together?"
"Roken needs more time to fix the ship. This will give him that time", Obi Wan said.
Roken came forward.
Obi Wan said, "you've spent ten years protecting the Jedi. This is my chance to return that favor."
Roken said, "but we're so close."
Obi Wan said, "Roken, you know this plan makes sense."
"No, we need you", Sully said.
"It'll buy you the time you need, You must get these people out of here. You are all the future. You are the future", Obi Wan said as he stared at everyone, "you're what needs to survive."
Leia and Sam cried, "no!"
They then ran off down the ship.
Obi Wan said, "Sam. Leia."
Haja said, "I think they need to be given space. Just…."
Obi Wan said, "Haja, Hunter, you must promise me that you'll get Leia back to Alderaan, and Sam to Ahsoka Tano."
Haja said, "You have our word. Although, I know the word of a liar and a fake Jedi may not mean much to you."
Obi Wan said, "it's good enough for me."
Hunter said, "be careful, Obi Wan."
"I'll do my best", Obi Wan said as he then walked away.
He had to speak with the kids….
….
Back on Tatooine….
Owen and Luke arrive back at their home.
"All right, go on in", Owen said to Luke, who ran back inside.
Beru asked, "what is it?"
"Come on inside", Owen said.
….
A few minutes later….
Beru asked, "how did she know he was here?"
Owen said, "I don't know. All I know is she's coming, Ben is gone."
Bery asked, "whose fault is that?"
Owen said, "we need to leave, Beru. We need to take Luke and hide somewhere."
Beru asked, "where? In the desert? I'm not leaving my home. At least here we have a chance."
"If we stay, we'd need help", Owen said.
"I'm not putting anyone else in danger, Owen. We're enough. You and me", Beru said.
Beru began to gather some weapons.
Owen asked, "Beru, what are you doing?"
Beru said, "we both knew this day might come. She'll come when the suns go down. Best we get positioned now."
….
Back in space….
Obi Wan walked over to Sam and Leia.
"We talked with them", Haja said.
"Your welcome", Hunter said.
Obi Wan approached the kids.
Leia said, "you said you'd take me home."
Obi Wan said, "I wish that I could, Leia. Really, I do. Please tell your father I tried. I have something for you."
Obi Wan pulled out Tala's holster.
Obi Wan said, "Hunter and Roken found it before we got out. She would have wanted you to have it."
Obi Wan hands the holster to Leia.
"It's empty", Leia said.
"Well, I wasn't gonna give you a blaster, Leia. You're ten years old", Obi Wan said.
Leia looked down.
Obi Wan said, "but you won't always be."
Leia gave a small smile.
Obi Wan then looked at Sam.
Sam had tears in his eyes as he stared at his father.
Obi Wan knelt down to his son.
"Dad. Please don't go…. I don't wanna lose you….", Sam whimpered.
Obi Wan said, "I'll always be with you Sam. I will do whatever I can to get back to you. But if I can't…. I want you to find a woman named Ahsoka Tano. She'll help you."
Sam broke down crying as he hugged his father.
He cried, "I love you dad."
"I love you too Son", Obi Wan said as he hugged his son close to him.
Sam sniffled.
Leia then joined in on the hug.
The hug seemed to last forever.
The three then broke the hug.
"Come back", Leia said.
"Please", Sam said.
Obi Wan said, "I promise."
Obi Wan then kissed Sam's forehead.
Sam smiled for a moment.
Obi Wan then stood up and walked over to Roken.
KeeKee and One-One did their best to comfort Sam.
Sam hugged them both close.
….
We then see Obi Wan holding his lightsaber.
"I have to face him, Master. Whether he dies or I do, this ends today", Obi Wan said.
Roken asked, "are you ready? Drop ship's all set. You don't have to do this, you know. We can still fix the drive."
"I have to go", Obi Wan said.
"You want to do it. It's about you and him", Roken said.
"Just keep them safe", Obi Wan said.
"Keep yourself safe too", Roken said as he walked away.
"Roken", Obi Wan said.
Roken turned around.
"There are not many leaders left. People follow you. Don't stop", Obi Wan said.
"I'm just getting started", Roken said.
….
On the Star Destroyer, a Captain said, "we're tracking an escape craft. There's one life form aboard."
Vader said, "that's him."
The Grand Inquisitor said, "my Lord, we must continue our pursuit of the insurgents. Now is our chance to wipe out this network in its entirety. We cannot prioritize one lone Jedi."
Vader growled, "he is not just any Jedi. Follow Kenobi. Leave my son on that ship, for now…."
The Grand Inquisitor said, "at once, Lord Vader."
The Star Destroyer began to follow Obi Wan's ship. Vader was indeed out for blood….
….
Back on Tatooine….
It was now nearing night time.
Owen and Beru were leading Luke to where he would be hiding.
"Now, Luke, I need you to listen to me. The Tuskens are on the hunt again. They're raiding farms along the wastes. So stay here. If anything goes wrong, you know what to do. You run", Owen said to Luke.
Luke said, "I'm not afraid."
"I know. Everything's gonna be fine", Owen said as he and Beru hugged Luke.
Beru sniffled lightly.
"It's gonna be okay." Beru said, before she and Owen then walked out of the room.
Luke watched as the door closed...
….
Back in space….
Obi Wan then steers his ship to a nearby planet.
The Star Destroyer is right behind him.
….
Vader said, "prepare my ship. I will face him alone."
….
Obi Wan then lands his ship down on the planet's ground.
He then begins to power everything down.
Obi Wan sighs before he hears a light beeping.
Obi Wan then pulls out Lola from his pocket.
Lola beeped as she flapped her wings.
Obi Wan smiled at the droid.
He supposed Leia planned this. To wish him luck, perhaps.
Obi Wan then placed Lola down on the chair as he then sighed.
He then begins to head out as Lola lets out a nervous beep.
….
Back on Tatooine….
We see Reva approaching the Lars home.
She was panting lightly as she walked.
….
Inside the home.
Owen and Beru then heard the alarms go off.
"That's the perimeter. She's here", Owen said.
Beru said as she grabbed a blaster, "it's time."
….
We then see Vader's shuttle land on the planet.
The ramp lowered down and Vader walked down the ramp.
He and Obi Wan stood across from one another.
Vader said, "have you come to destroy me, Obi Wan?"
Obi Wan activated his lightsaber and said, "I will do what I must."
Vader growled, "then you will die!"
Vader activated his lightsaber.
"When I kill you…. I will take my son back to his rightful place", Vader growled.
Obi Wan said, "his rightful place is with people who love him. Care for him. Who won't threaten him."
"He belongs with me", Vader growled.
Obi Wan said, "he is a boy! Not your property! And the only thing you managed to do was to traumatize him even more!"
Vader growled, "you made him afraid of me!"
Obi Wan said, "I spoke the world of you and his mother! His fear came only when he learned of what you became!"
Vader froze at this.
Obi Wan said, "Sam grew up with stories about Anakin Skywalker and his heroics."
Vader began to clench his fists.
Obi Wan said, "he grew up with tales of Padme Amidala spreading peace everywhere she went."
Vader's heart clenched at the mention of his late wife.
He couldn't bear to hear more.
"I will kill you and take my son back", Vader growled.
"If you do that…. Sam will be left with a broken heart", Obi Wan said.
Vader growled, "he will eventually get over it…."
Vader then lunged towards Obi Wan.
The two began to clash blades.
Obi Wan kept defending himself while Vader was going in for the kill. He wanted Kenobi to pay!
The two blades kept clashing against one another. A purple glow emanated from the mix of red and blue.
….
Back on Tatooine…..
We see Reva enter the Lars home and she activates her red lightsaber.
Her eyes scan around the area.
She begins to walk around the homestead.
She is clearly on the hunt.
Then Owen and Beru began to fire shots at her!
Reva ducked for cover.
"Go! Go! Go now", Owen shouted to his wife as he began to throw objects at Reva, who easily sliced them up in half with her lightsaber.
Reva growled in anger as she tried to get closer.
….
Back on the barren moon….
Obi Wan and Vader were still dueling.
They twisted and turned through various stone pillars as they fought.
Vader growled in anger.
He was beyond enraged!
Obi Wan kept avoiding his attacks.
He had improved since their last fight.
Vader kept getting angry every second
His rage was boiling over.
Obi Wan attempted to make a pillar fall on top of Vader.
Vader sent his hand upwards.
"Your strength has returned", Vader said.
He begins to crush the pillar.
"But the weakness still remains", Vader said as he began to throw rocks at Obi Wan.
Obi Wan staggers backwards as he tries to dodge the rocks.
Vader then ran forward and began to clash sabers with Obi Wan again.
He then hits Obi Wan in the face, before tripping Obi Wan.
Vader yelled, "and that is why you will always lose!"
Vader then used the force to make the ground break apart beneath Obi Wan, causing him to fall down.
Obi Wan screamed as he fell down into a deep chasm!
Vader then walked over and he began to drop more rocks onto Obi Wan, as his intention was to bury him alive.
Once there were enough rocks, he growled, "did you truly think that you could defeat me? You have failed, Master. Now I shall go find my son and bring him back where he belongs."
Vader began to walk away….
….
Back on Tatooine….
Owen is holding his weapon as Reva stands across from him, with her lightsaber activated.
Reva then threw something at Owen, causing him to lose his grip on Blaster as it fell to the ground.
"You really love the boy. Like he's your own", Reva said.
"He is my own", Owen said as he grabbed a pipe and began to fight Reva with it.
He was able to hit her a few times.
Beru yelled, "what do you want?!"
Reva growled, "justice!"
Reva then cut the pipe in half, before she pushed Owen out of the way.
Reva ran past him as Owen yelled, "Beru, she's coming!"
Reva then entered the room and she was hit in the head with an object.
"Go", Beru shouted to Luke.
Luke runs off as fast as he can.
Reva then knocks Beru down to the ground.
We see Luke as he runs across the desert with Reva not that far behind him….
….
Back on the barren moon….
We see Obi Wan as he uses the force to prevent the rocks from crushing him.
He groans in pain and exhaustion.
As he does this, he begins to hear voices of past memories….
Anakin.
"This is the end for you, my Master. Admit you are beaten."
Darth Vader.
"You cannot run, Obi-Wan."
Anakin.
"I see through the lies of the Jedi. You're my enemy."
Darth Vader.
"You should have killed me when you had the chance."
Anakin.
"I do not fear the dark side."
Darth Vader.
"I am what you made me."
Obi Wan takes a deep breath as he tries to focus himself.
Obi Wan then sees flashes of Luke, Leia and…. Sam.
This gave him the push he needed!
Obi Wan then was able to use the force to blast all the rocks away from him.
He began to climb back up.
We then see Vader as he was walking back to his shuttle.
He then suddenly stops.
He quickly ignites his lightsaber as it clashes against Obi Wan's lightsaber!
The two were once again trading blows.
But Obi Wan was getting the upper hand and he quickly force pushed Vader into a pillar.
Obi Wan then began to lift many rocks.
He sent them all flying at Vader!
Vader groaned in pain as he tried to defend himself.
But Obi Wan was slowly gaining the upper hand more and more.
….
Back on Tatooine….
We see Reva running across the desert.
Her eyes are bloodshot as she keeps running.
Reva arrives at Beggar's Canyon as she searches for Luke.
Luke is hiding above her behind some rocks….
….
Vader and Obi Wan continue their duel.
Vader is snarling like a beast as he is desperate to kill Kenobi.
Vader grabs Obi Wan's hand as he tries to disarm him, but Obi Wan begins to hit his chest plate.
Vader groans and gasps as his breathing grows ragged whilst Obi Wan hits the plate several times.
Vader then attempts to strike Obi Wan with his lightsaber but Obi Wan blocks it.
Obi Wan throws a rock at Vader who dodges it, Vader runs towards Obi Wan, but Obi Wan slashes his back!
Vader yells in pain as he keeps swinging angrily at Obi Wan.
Obi Wan then force pushed Vader away a few feet.
Vader and Obi Wan then ran at each other…. And Obi Wan slashed a part of Vader's helmet off!
Vader groaned in pain.
Obi Wan stepped back.
Vader then slowly began to rise up.
Obi Wan's breathing grew shaky when he saw the small part of Anakin's face.
Obi Wan began to get emotional as he said, "Anakin."
Vader's voice overlaps with his old self's voice as he said, "Anakin is gone. I am what remains."
Obi Wan said with tears in his eyes, "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, Anakin. For all of it."
"I am not your failure, Obi Wan. You didn't kill Anakin Skywalker…. I did. The same way, I will destroy you! And I will take my son back where he belongs", Vader growled.
Obi Wan cried, "then my friend is truly dead…. Goodbye…. Darth…."
Obi Wan began to walk away as Vader could barely stand.
Vader screamed, "Obi Wan…. OBI WAAAAAAAN!"
….
We then see Obi Wan's ship leave the planet.
….
Back on Tatooine….
We see Luke continue to hide from Reva.
He's breathing heavily.
Luke then ended up tripping and rolling down as he cried in fear and pain.
...
Obi Wan sensed all this.
He said, "Luke!"
He had to get back to Tatooine!
Obi Wan's ship then goes into lightspeed.
….
We then see Reva as she approaches the unconscious Luke.
She has a crazed look in her eyes.
She activated her lightsaber and slowly began to raise it over her head….
….
Owen and Beru were searching for Luke.
Owen shouted, "Luke!"
Beru shouted, "Luke!"
They kept shouting his name before they saw Obi Wan running to them.
Obi Wan asked, "where is he?"
"He's gone", Beru said.
"I'll look in the Dune Sea. We'll search till we find him", Obi Wan said.
That's when they saw someone approaching.
It was Reva!
Owen said, "Ben!"
Obi Wan turned around and saw Reva.
Obi Wan and the couple ran over.
Reva was carrying Luke in her arms.
She placed him down on the ground.
Luke was not moving. Obi Wan and the couple feared the worst had happened.
But Luke began to groan and whimper.
Beru and Owen ran to Luke as Reva cried.
Owen then picks up Luke in his arms as he and Beru head back to their home.
Obi Wan knelt down as Reva kept crying.
Reva cried, "I couldn't do it. I couldn't do it. I failed them. He killed them all, and I couldn't do it."
Obi Wan said, "you haven't failed them. By showing mercy, you have given them peace."
Reva asked with tears in her eyes, "have I become him?"
"No, you have chosen not to, who you become now, that is up to you", Obi Wan said.
Reva then pulled out her lightsaber as she stared at it, before she put it down on the sand.
Obi Wan stands up and offers his hand to Reva.
Reva accepts it as Obi Wan helps her up.
"Now you're free, we both are", Obi Wan said as he sighed.
Reva cries as she is kneeling by Obi Wan.
….
We then see the planet of Mustafar.
Vader sits at a desk, his suit repaired from what Obi Wan did.
Even though Vader didn't need the suit as he was all healed up, he still liked to use it as it caused people to be afraid of him.
Vader said to a hologram, "the probes are tracking every system within range. We will destroy everything in our path until he and my son are found."
We then see that Vader was speaking to Emperor Malakis.
The lower half of his face was covered by a mask made of jagged metal.
He was also wearing bandages on his arms, and he was wearing a black cloak.
"I do not like this plan…. It's best you put your past behind you", Malakis growled.
Vader said, "he will not evade me again. Nor will my son."
Malakis said, "I wonder if your thoughts are clear on this, Lord Vader. Perhaps your feelings for your old master and son have left you weakened. If your past cannot be overcome…."
"Kenobi means nothing. But my son….", Vader said.
Malakis saw Vader's love for Sam as an advantage.
He said, "we'll keep a bounty up for the child. Wanted; alive and unharmed."
"Thank you my master", Vader said.
Malakis smiled evilly under his mask.
The hologram then faded out.
Vader sighed in slight defeat….
….
Meanwhile, on Alderaan….
We see Leia is getting herself all dressed up.
She was truly growing up.
As soon as she finished dressing herself up, Breha walked into the room.
"All right, let's go, young lady. We don't want to keep your….", Breha said.
She was shocked to see Leia all dressed up. She also spotted the holster.
Breha asked, "is that a holster?"
Leia nods her head.
Breha walked over and said, "I love it."
Leia smiled at her mother.
Breha then led her daughter to where they were going.
They soon met up with Bail.
The three then saw a ship land in front of them.
Leia said, "you said there were many ways to lead."
Bail said, "looks like I was right."
Leia said, "if I'm going to do this, I'm going to want to change a few things."
Bail said, "then let's change things together."
Leia asked, "so, who is it today? More cousins?"
Bail said, "not exactly."
The ramp then lowered and out walked Obi Wan.
And Lola!
Leia exclaimed, "Lola!"
Leia embraced her droid as Obi Wan said, "who am I to separate a young lady from her droid?"
Obi Wan then walked over to Bail and Breha.
He hugged Bail.
Bail said, "thank you."
Obi Wan said, "of course."
Breha said, "we can never repay you."
Obi Wan said, "well, she has already done that."
Obi Wan looks over to see Leia holding Lola.
"I missed you", Leia said.
Lola beeped.
"I fear for her future. The Empire grows stronger and bolder", Bail said.
Obi Wan said, "well, if you ever need my help again, you know where to find me."
Bail said, "let's hope that day never comes."
Obi Wan shakes Bail's hand, he then walks over to Leia.
Leia asked, "so, what'll you do now?"
Obi Wan said, "I don't know. What do you think I should do?"
Leia said, "I think you should sleep."
Both laugh.
Obi Wan said, "I think you're right. Leia…. When I said before that I didn't know your parents…. Princess Leia Organa, you are wise, discerning, kind hearted. These are qualities that came from your mother. But you are also passionate, fearless and forthright. And these are gifts from your father. Both were exceptional people who bore an exceptional daughter. I wish I could tell you more…."
Leia asked, "it's okay. You don't have to. Thank you. Will I ever see you again?"
Obi Wan, "maybe. Someday. If you ever need help from a tired old man. Hehe. But we must be careful. No one must know, or it could endanger us both."
Leia nodded and said, "goodbye, Obi Wan."
Obi Wan said, "goodbye, Princess. May the Force be with you."
Obi Wan then walks off to his ship, as he gives one last glance at the Organa family.
He smiled before leaving.
Obi Wan then sits down at the pilot's seat.
The ship then begins to take off into the air, before it heads out into space.
He had one more place to go before heading back to Tatooine….
….
Meanwhile, on Lothal….
We see a small camp.
Sitting on one of the logs was Sam.
He had KeeKee in his lap and One-One sat next to him.
Sam had a worried and sad look on his face.
Hunter sat across from Sam, wearing a brown jacket, yellow shirt and black pants.
KeeKee licked Sam's face in efforts to calm him.
Sam gave a small smile.
"She should be here by now", Hunter muttered.
Sam asked, "who?"
Hunter said, "this Ashoka lady Obi Wan told me about."
"It's Ahsoka, actually."
Sam and Hunter then turned around to see…. Ahsoka Tano herself.
Hunter went wide-eyed and had a deep blush when he saw Ahsoka.
She was a beautiful Togruta woman with a form fitting gray and blue outfit that showed off her ample chest and shapely rear. She had vibrant orange skin, white and blue leeku, white face markings and bright blue eyes.
To Hunter, she was the most gorgeous woman he'd ever seen.
"You are Ahsoka Tano? The Jedi who master Kenobi spoke so highly about", One-One said.
Ahsoka said, "indeed I am. I got your message. Saying Kenobi asked you all to meet me here."
Ahsoka then saw Sam.
She knelt down and said, "you're him, aren't you? Sam?"
Sam nods his head.
Ahsoka smiled and said, "it's amazing to meet you. I was Anakin Skywalker's apprentice."
Sam said in awe, "really?"
Ahsoka nodded with a smile as she said, "I used to call him Skyguy, while he called me Snips."
"Cool", Sam said in awe.
Ahsoka sat next to Sam.
"You look so much like your father", Ahsoka said.
Sam couldn't help but smile at how kind Ahsoka was.
"Obi Wan was right about one thing…. You are adorable", Ahsoka said as she smiled.
Sam giggled.
"Master! Your curse is returning", One-One exclaimed.
Sam gasped as he saw his hand turning green.
He said, "oh no! One-One, give me an elixir!"
"On it", One-One said as he ran to Sam's backpack and pulled out an elixir.
Sam quickly grabbed it and drank it all down.
The green on his hand quickly disappeared.
Sam sighed in relief.
Ahsoka asked, "that's the curse you have? The one Obi Wan told me about?"
Sam nodded.
"I have had it since I was barely a year old…. And my dad still hasn't been able to find out who the cloaked figure was who cursed me", Sam said sadly.
Ahsoka hugged Sam and said, "oh sweetie. I'm so sorry."
Sam smiled sadly as he hugged Ahsoka back.
Hunter looked down in sadness.
Ahsoka then turned to see Hunter.
She asked, "and you are?"
"My name is Hunter", Hunter said.
Ahsoka said, "so you're the Stormtrooper who defected?"
Hunter nods his head.
Ahsoka said, "well, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Sam and KeeKee tilted their heads.
They were a little confused at how Hunter was acting.
"Hopefully I didn't arrive too late."
Sam gasped as he turned around. Obi Wan was standing right there!
Obi Wan smiled and said, "hello there."
Sam jumped up and exclaimed, "dad!"
Sam ran to his father.
Obi Wan picked up his son and hugged him close.
Sam was crying tears of joy.
He cried, "I thought I'd never see you again."
Obi Wan had tears in his eyes as he held his son close to him.
He whispered, "I'll always be with you, my son."
Sam kept hugging his father as tears fell down his face.
"I love you dad", Sam cried.
Obi Wan said, "I love you too, son."
Ahsoka and Hunter smiled at the sight.
It was truly beautiful.
"This is even making me emotional", Revan said.
Sam giggled at Revan.
Obi Wan asked, "what's funny little one?"
Revan said, "might as well tell him, kid."
"You're right, Revan", Sam said.
Obi Wan asked, "Revan?"
"Dad, this curse I have…. It caused someone to enter my mind", Sam said.
Ahsoka said, "intriguing…."
Obi Wan asked, "who?"
"Him", Sam said as Revan appeared.
Revan said, "no-one can see me but you, remember?"
"Oh dang it! I forgot", Sam muttered.
Revan said, "better explain the situation."
"Alright", Sam said.
Sam turned to everyone and began to explain things.
How Revan entered his mind, and how Revan has been helping him with the curse.
It took a few minutes.
And everyone was left in awe.
It was such a shocking reveal.
"The only downside is that none of you can see Revan, only I can see him", Sam said.
Hunter held three fingers behind his back and said, "ask him how many fingers I'm holding up."
Revan looked behind his back and said, "he's scratching his butt with three fingers."
Hunter wasn't. Revan was just messing around.
Sam said, "three."
Hunter's eyes went wide.
Hunter said, "okay, I believe ya."
Sam smiled as Revan stood beside him.
He said, "that a boy."
Sam giggled.
"So I guess you are taking Sam back home", Ahsoka said.
"Yes…. But there is something I would like to ask you, Ahsoka", Obi Wan said.
Ahsoka asked, "and what's that?"
"I want you to help me with Sam's training", Obi Wan said.
Ahsoka went wide-eyed.
"Sam wants to become a Jedi like his father, and who else can be helpful in his training, no one else but you Ahsoka", Obi Wan said.
Sam gave a hopeful look.
"I would be more than honored to train Anakin's son", Ahsoka said as she smiled at Sam.
Sam smiled from ear to ear.
Sam then let out a yawn.
Hunter said, "looks like someone's tired."
"All that running from the empire has made me tired", Sam said as he let out another yawn.
Obi Wan said, "you need a good night's sleep, hmm?"
Sam nods his head tiredly.
Obi Wan lifted Sam into his arms.
Sam slowly fell asleep in his father's arms.
One-One said, "awwwww."
"I agree, that is so adorable", Hunter said.
KeeKee gave a tiny nod.
Obi Wan asked, "I'll be heading back to Tatooine, are you coming, Ahsoka?"
"Not yet, I still have some stuff to do, but let me know once you start Sam's training and I will be there as soon as I can", Ahsoka said.
Obi Wan said, "very well then."
Obi Wan then turned to look at Hunter.
"Thank you Hunter, for protecting my son", Obi Wan said.
Hunter said, "it was no problem, Obi Wan."
Obi Wan asked, "what are you going to do now?"
Ahsoka said, "he could always come with me."
Hunter went wide eyed and asked, "really?"
"I don't mind, besides, I could use the company", Ahsoka said.
Hunter's face turned a deep shade of red.
Revan snickered as One-One picked up a rise in blood temperature from Hunter.
KeeKee tilted her head.
Obi Wan chuckled.
"Well, goodbye", Obi Wan said.
"May the force be with you Obi Wan", Ahsoka said.
Obi Wan said, "and you, Ahsoka."
"Be safe Obi Wan", Hunter said.
Obi Wan nods his head as he walks back to his ship.
KeeKee was carrying Sam's backpack in her mouth.
One-One followed behind Obi Wan.
Obi Wan and his group soon took off.
….
The ship was in space.
Obi Wan had one last stop to make.
He and Sam had to pay their respects to a dear friend….
….
Some time later….
Sam woke up as Obi Wan landed the ship on Jabim.
Sam rubbed his eyes as he slowly stood up.
Sam asked, "where are we?"
"Jabiim", Obi Wan said.
Sam put the pieces together.
The ship's ramp then lowered.
The father, son and One-One exited into the empty remains of the Path's former hideout.
Sam held his father's hand as they walked to a hallway.
They walked down it, looking for a specific person.
"I see something", One-One said.
Obi Wan asked, "what do you see?"
One-One rolled over to the remains of a droid.
NED-B.
Sam let out a gasp.
He ran over to the droid.
Sam then saw the rest of NED-B's remains.
The left arm was completely blown off, as were most of his legs.
Sam then let out a gasp as he saw another body.
Tala.
She lay there motionless, almost like she was asleep.
Obi Wan walked over.
He sighed sadly.
"Let's give her a proper burial", Obi Wan said.
Sam nodded solemnly.
….
A few minutes later….
Obi Wan, Sam and One-One stood in front of Tala's grave.
It was marked with a stick as a grave marker.
"Leia would have been crying if she were here", Sam said.
Obi Wan and One-One nodded.
"Nonetheless, Tala deserves to be honored, she and the path inspired hope for the galaxy", Obi Wan said.
Sam and One-One both nodded.
"Well then, let's go home", Obi Wan said.
As they got back on the ship, KeeKee in her beast form was dragging NED-B's remains on board.
Sam hoped that in the future, NED-B could be fixed.
It would take a lot of work, that's for sure.
As soon as everyone was back on board, the ship then took off into space….
….
Later, on Tatooine….
We see Obi Wan was now wearing new clothes.
A new brown cloak and clean beige robes.
And he had something in his bag, which he was gonna bring to a certain farm boy.
Sam asked, "Dad, are you ready?"
Obi Wan nodded.
The two then head to the Eopie. They were on their way to a certain farm.
When they got there, they saw Owen was doing some work on the farm
Owen saw them and asked, "what are you, uh, doin' here? I thought you were gonna keep your distance."
"And I will. You know, you were right. He just needs to be a boy. The future will take care of itself", Obi Wan said.
Owen then turned to look back at Luke and then back to Obi Wan.
"The only protection he needs now, Owen, is you and Beru. Take good care of him", Obi Wan said.
Owen said, "I will."
Sam and Obi Wan began to walk away.
Owen then said, "Ben? You want to meet him?"
Obi Wan had a surprised look on his face.
He then smiled in joy. He and Sam made their way over to Luke.
Obi Wan had in his hand, the T-16 Skyhopper toy.
Luke looked up at Obi Wan with a small smile.
Obi Wan smiled warmly and said, "hello there."
Sam smiled at the sight.
Obi Wan handed the toy to Luke.
Luke smiled in joy.
Obi Wan and Sam smiled back before they left….
….
We then see Obi Wan and Sam on the Eopie as they head back home.
As they approached home, they noticed a glowing figure.
"Master Qui Gon", Obi Wan said.
The ghost was indeed Qui Gon Jinn, glowing blue.
He said, "well, took you long enough…."
"Beginning to think you'd never come", Obi Wan said.
Qui Gon said, "I was always here, Obi Wan. You just were not ready to see. Come on. We've got a ways to go."
Obi Wan let out a smile.
Qui Gon then saw Sam.
He said, "hello little one."
Sam asked, "are you my grandpa?"
Qui Gon smiled at what Sam said.
As did Obi Wan.
"I am your grandpa, in a way, little one", Qui Gon said.
Sam smiled brightly.
Qui Gon then fades away.
Obi Wan and Sam could tell this was only the beginning of their journey together.

Reviews:
SuperSentai199: same here. I also love how Obi Wan just flat out told her he was nowhere near the temple when Anakin killed most of the Jedi.

And thus we wrap up the events of Obi Wan Kenobi's show.
