KOUHUN ATTEMPT


The longer I looked at both of them, the easier and more familiar they became to me. The one with the braid was now 6'1 and didn't necessarily tower over me, but he certainly was much taller than when I last saw him and we were the same height. He had grown so much since I last saw him. Like me, his hair had lost all its blonde and now sported a light brown. Spiked up at the top and in a small ponytail in the back, the boy had fair skin like mine as a result of no longer living in the suns on Tatooine all the time.

What really identified who he was, was the all too familiar playful, mischievous, and loving look in his bright blue eyes.

"Ani!" I exclaimed as my face practically beamed with excitement and I tackled him into a hug as a much-needed hug was overdue with my twin brother.

"Look at how much you've grown!" I squealed as I squeezed his neck tight and he just laughed but hugged me back nonetheless.

"You mean how I'm no longer looking you directly in the eyes but instead looking down at you instead?" He joked with me but I was too happy to be annoyed with him. So instead I just pulled back and gave him a playful slug on his shoulder before turning to the next Jedi.

It was so obvious this was the famous Obi-Wan with Anakin. Of course, it had to be, he was Anakin's Master so it only made sense. While he looked much more familiar than my brother did, he did, in fact, look older. He was taller now too at 5'10, just a little bit shorter than his Padawan. His bright piercing blue eyes still remained the same but he certainly had lost his teenage looks. Now, he was sporting a small blonde beard and his hair was no longer short and spiky but came down to his shoulders in a mullet. I couldn't help but let out a slight giggle upon his long locks but he smiled at me nonetheless.

"Obi-Wan," I beamed as he offered me a hand but I simply swatted it away and pulled him into a hug. I couldn't have cared less about formalities right now. I hadn't seen either one of these two in ten years so I was going to greet them the way I wanted to, not the way we were formally supposed to meet.

At first, Obi-Wan jumped slightly surprised but eventually let out a chuckle and hugged me back. When we pulled back I let out another laugh remembering Master Windu's terrible sour expression when he left the Chancellor's Office.

"What?" Obi-Wan asked while Anakin just gave me a curious but humorous look.

"I finally understand why Master Windu was so mad earlier," I simply told them and before either one of them could ask anything else, Padmé thankfully interrupted.
