Opening my eyes slowly, I find myself on a dark street with flickering streetlights. The gloomy surroundings add to the ill feeling in my stomach. I don't have control of my body as I walk down the road when I feel a force pull me into an alleyway.

I look up on the rooftop, hearing noises from it, just in time to see a figure fall from it.

It seems to happen so fast that I don't have any time to even raise my hand to stop it from happening.

Without being able to comprehend what happened in front of me, I held my breath. My heart hammered against my ribs as I watched the figure plummet from the rooftop. The air sucked out of my lungs. A knot tightened in my stomach, and my legs turned to lead as I sprinted towards the fallen body, each step heavier than the last. I approach the figure on the ground, stop right before it, and finally recognize who it is.

"Obi-Wan!" I exclaimed in horror at what lay before me. My heart drops to my stomach when I see my master on the ground with a blaster wound to his chest. His chest wasn't moving when I dropped to my knees by his side.

Tears start to form at the corners of my eyes as I bring my hands out in front of me to feel his pulse. However, I stopped before I could touch him, pulling my hands back to my chest, knowing it was in vain because I couldn't feel him through the Force.

"Obi-Wan! Wake up! Obi-Wan!" I shout only for no one to hear. My tears now flowed freely down my cheeks, against my will.

"Can anyone hear me? I need help! Please!" I yelled for help, looking out both ways in the alleyway, but no one came. I am left alone. I look back at the lifeless Obi-Wan, pleading for him to wake up.

"Please don't leave me alone, Obi-Wan," I whimper. My tears were slowly soaking my master's robes. I lower my head to his non-moving chest and let my sobs take over. When I finally lifted my head back up, my tears had slowed. Shaking, I bring my hand up to brush the hair out of my master's face. While he had been shot, his face held no pain, only peace.

"I'm sorry I could not save you, Master. Please forgive me." I beg for something I know will not happen. I will never be able to hear his voice or his laugh. I will never be able to see his eyes or the way he seems to mess with his beard.

Looking over his face, my hand ghosts over his features, never truly making contact. As I look over his face, his eyes twitch, and for a moment, I don't believe what I saw.

"Obi-Wan?" I whisper.

Suddenly his eyes opened, except they weren't the blue eyes I'd grown familiar with. His eyes were gray, seeming as if they were clouded over. They were dull, and any sign of life was gone. His hand closest to me reaches up and grabs my neck, pulling me close to his face. I let out a shriek as I met his cold eyes.

"Why didn't you save me?" Obi-Wan asks. His voice is hoarse and strained.

My eyes widen, and I pull back in shock.

I shoot up from my bed quickly, and my breathing is ragged. I placed my hand over my chin, where his ghost of touch left me with goosebumps. I take deep breaths and attempt to steady my pounding heart. When I finally ground myself, I realized I had tears running down my cheeks. I bring my hands up to my face and wipe any trace of tears away.
