I sat in the back seat, fiddling with a holo puzzle. 

"are we there yet?" 

"almost. we should arrive in about five more minutes." 

I give a huff. 

"you know patience is a virtue." 

"maybe but still.... hey Obi-Wan, what were the planets like? the ones you and Anakin went to I mean." 

he thought for a minute. 

"well... each one was different and had different problems. some were baron. some full of life. but they were all beautiful in their own way. although I don't think Anakin was too keen on going to some of the desert ones." 

"I imagine not. considering it was our home for a long time. for him even longer than me. I'm glad you guys came back. I missed you both." 

"I missed you too. and I'm certain Anakin did as well." 

"so how does it feel being a master of a padawan?" 

"it can be difficult, but also very rewarding. when you see how your student works hard and accomplish's what they work so hard for. that you yourself taught them. you can't help feeling pride and joy in their accomplishments. just as much as in your own." 

I could tell he was smiling when he said that. I can't help feeling a pang of jealousy. knowing I won't be ever allowed to take on a padawan of my own. but that's just how it is in my situation. the feeling soon disappears, when I think of the younglings back at the temple that I spend time with. those feelings no doubt are the same feelings that Obi-Wan described. although I'm still a little envois of the strong bond you have between master and apprentice. it doesn't really work that way with the younglings. as if reading my mind Obi-Wan speaks up again. 

"although there are some down sides too. like when he's stubborn. and argent. and never listens to instructions. and always, always rushing into something without thinking. that's probably the worst." 

I smile to myself. 

"yeah, that's Anakin for you." 

"who said I was only talking about Anakin." 

"huh, what are you insinuating?" 

"nothing. nothing at all..." 

"no! you were-" 

R-4 suddenly let out some beeps. 

"oh look we're here. and it's right where it should be." 

I huff. 

"you saved yourself for now Obi-Wan." 

as we enter the atmosphere. never ending oceans became visible.  with a heavy thunderstorm that didn't seem like it would let up anytime soon. I look around and see a city in the distance. that was on stilts, to keep it above the water. 

"look Obi-Wan. over there." 

I point over to it. we fly over and land. I push on the glass over our heads to open the hatch, that would let us out. rain immediately stated pelting us relentlessly. even our cloaks did nothing to shield us from it. we walked up to the door leading into one of the a buildings. the doors opened automatically letting us in. I lower my hood. my hair soaked. Obi-Wan in the same condition as me. I giggled. 

"what is it?" 

"you look like a drowned wamprat." 

he frowned at that comment grumbling a bit. I shake my head. I notice someone walking towards us. it was a kaminoan. she was intimidating but also graceful. she wore clothes that fluttered when she walked. but what was most beautiful were her eyes. it was like you could see the stars of the galaxy in them.
