• Summary: He knew his name before he knew anything else. My apprentice, Obi-Wan. The words rolled off Qui-Gon’s lips in distaste, as if saying the name was punishment enough. For young Anakin’s eyes, it was nothing. Qui-Gon spoke lowly of his apprentice that Anakin feared to meet the treacherous beast of a padawan. Anakin was met with gentle eyes and a kind smile.
❤️A/N: This is the prequel to My Master. It can be read alone. It’s also set in Anakin’s POV.

He knew his name before he knew anything else. My apprentice, Obi-Wan.
The words rolled off Qui-Gon’s lips in distaste, as if saying the name was punishment enough. For young Anakin’s eyes, it was nothing. Qui-Gon spoke lowly of his apprentice that Anakin feared to meet the treacherous beast of a padawan.
Anakin was met with gentle eyes and a kind smile.
🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️
Anakin was a slave his whole life, he knew nothing else but his mother’s voice would ring in his ears. My boy, you are meant to do something great.
Maybe the greatness of Anakin Skywalker was to be a slave. Maybe the greatness of Anakin Skywalker had yet to be shown.
Bruised, tortured, and abused, was all Anakin knew. Qui-Gon Jinn entered his life.
🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️
Qui-Gon wanted him, he wanted him like Watto had wanted a strong young boy as a slave. Anakin knew what it felt like to be wanted, but never for the right reasons.
He saw her first. She was beautiful to the eyes of a young boy who had never seen anything in her likes. A Handmaiden.
She was easy to talk to, young Anakin realized. She called him ‘Ani’ like his mother before him. She didn’t treat him as the child he was, but rather, the adult he would become. He knew, in his heart of hearts, that he would marry that girl.
He left his mother. He left his mother behind with a beautiful Handmaiden and a powerful Jedi, also a creature that he couldn’t decipher. They made it towards the now fixed ship, where a boy- a Jedi, aswell- stood.
Anakin smiled at him and it was returned. This couldn’t possibly be the monster of an apprentice, Anakin thought, surely not.
It was. Obi-Wan, he announced himself. He spoke to Anakin like Padme, in full sentences and as if he wasn’t a child. Anakin decided that he loved him.
🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️
It is to be noted that on the way from Tattoonie to Coruscant, that after Obi-Wan spoke to Qui-Gon, that the Force shifted. It shifted in a bad turn, and the gentle smiles Obi-Wan would give him now turned into harsh glares. He would ignore young Anakin when he walked in the room and in the night, he would turn to Padme, and ask. “Does Obi-Wan hate me?”
And Padme, she would hold him in her arms, and say, “Of course not, Ani.”
If tears slipped from his eyes, neither of them spoke of it.
