Does Ani find his love? Does he use purely the light side of the Force or does he use the dark side to get his captured mate back?

Rubbing
his beard down, Qui-Gon stared at the bodies that the judicial
had alerted the Jedi order to. Krell and Dibs, both both decapitated
with a lightsaber with Dibs showing no defense wounds which indicated
he was attacked
first with Krell covered in various scrapes and missing an arm.

All
of it lightsaber related injuries.

If
they hadn’t already known thanks to Yan then this would really put
the nail in the coffin that the Sith lord was on Coruscant. And boy
did that stills ting deep in his heart to know that Yan had fallen so
far.

Qui-Gon
still refused to take the man’s call.

But
right now he could not afford to be selfish.

Palpatine
had Obi-Wan and they needed proof to investigate him, needed the
judicals on their side and needed to be able to present their case to
the Senate after the fact to avoid a backlash from the public.

The
kidnapping of a pregnant being would do it but only if they could
prove that Palpatine had Obi-Wan.

‘Which
we still can’t.’ Qui-Gon thought bitterly before looking at the
officer he had been paired with. “Anything?” He asked softly,
frowning a bit.

She
glanced up before nodding. “Maybe. All Jedi are equipped with the
Order’s own specialized
brand of comms right?” Minella questioned before standing up by
Krell’s body to wipe her hands on a cloth, the water from searching
his belt clinging to her hands.

Nodding,
Qui-Gon moved closer. “Yes, they’re boosted to provide
communication when we’re separated
during paired missions. To ensure we can contact each other to
provide aid or to find an extraction point that works for all Jedi.
Why?” He questioned in bemusement.

“Because
Krell doesn’t have a comm and yet Dibs does.” She said with some
grim satisfaction.
“So my question is this, can Jedi comm’s be tracked?” Minella
crossed her arms over her chest, her muscles pushing the uniform.

Eyes
widening at the
implication, Qui-Gon
put his hand over his own comm. “…I don’t know but its no time
like the present to find that out. If you’re willing to come with
the temple with me officer?” He gestured to the car.

“Lead
the way Master Jinn.” She nodded sternly.

‘Hold
on Obi-Wan, just a while longer. Two more days and Anakin will be on
planet too…’ Qui-Gon thought with a tinge of desperation as he
hoped by that time that they knew where Obi-Wan was being kept.

()()()

Whimpering
faintly as he turned his head away, Obi-Wan tried to keep still as
blood was drawn from him by the med droid that
Palpatine had called into his room and had ordered to take a full
blood work sample from Obi-Wan who had been forced still with a Force
grip as the med bot approached the bed.

It
actually hurt quite a bit and he figured that had more to do with his
state at the moment.

Honestly
Obi-Wan had no idea how much time had gone by but so far he had been
feed eight time by a droid who would come by so if he was correct
that meant three meals a day but without a true window or a clock, it
was hard to tell.

Palpatine
came and went as he wanted, clearly living his life outside Obi-Wan’s
gilded cell but he came by often enough to leave Obi-Wan on edge as
he paced his room or went to the fresher as needed.

But
at least the blood sample was all that was going to be taken from him
in that moment.

“Now
the embryonic fluid sample.” Palpatine drawled and Obi-Wan
instantly started struggling to get off the bed only to be pulled
back with a loud yelp and kept still once more.

That
left Obi-Wan with only one option as the droid pulled up his tunic to
get to the swollen stomach, stretchmarks and all in display. “You
may feel a slight sting.” It droned out in a monotone and Obi-Wan
let out a cry as the needle pierced the taunt skin of his belly.

Far
up in space another sat up rigidly in his seat, hearing his mate cry
out in pain and fear. “Obi-Wan!”

Idea I’d quite like to see either as a one-shot or in an existing AU. During the CW, a Jedi gets pregnant. Could be Obi-Wan mpreg, Aayla + Bly’s birth control failed, Depa had a bad time with a sadistic Seppie, Moddy’s choice how it happened. As soon as the Council are informed, they order the mother-to-be out of any combat zones for the duration of the pregnancy. Mother protests they’re still capable, Council points out risk of death. Mother accepts the risk, Council asks, does your child?

Its
a cause for surprise and concern when Anakin notices Obi-Wan
straightening his tunic right outside the medic station, clearly
having come from there with a troubled look on his face.

Especially
since both he and Obi-Wan try their best to avoid both healers and
medics.

Yet
when their eyes meet, Obi-Wan only smiles gently at him and nods
towards the command station, already moving that way himself.

‘What
is going on?’ Anakin frowned to himself, watching Obi-Wan. If he
were to say, it looked like a heavy weight had been added on top of
all the others with the tense way Obi-Wan held his shoulders and
Anakin shot his eyes on Helix when the trooper came out, the medic
looking troubled though he quickly walked away when he noticed Anakin
watching him.

Walking
into command, Anakin glanced about and noted Obi-Wan speaking to Gear
and Longshot as they worked the controls for… wait, were they
comming the council?

Joining
Obi-Wan in front of the holo display, Anakin touched his old master’s
shoulder. “Obi-Wan, what’s going on?” He inquired worriedly.

Glancing
down, Obi-Wan let out a deep sigh before glancing back up. “You’ll
learn in a moment Anakin, I promise. I’d rather not have to repeat
it twice.” He murmured, adding a dry little smile that looked on
the edge of exhausted.

Frowning
deeply once more, Anakin nodded before letting his hand fall as the
council slowly appeared one by one, some of them standing and some of
them sitting and Anakin figured the ones standing must be somewhere
in the field too.

Kit
wasn’t there at all, must be either in traverse or in the middle of
battle as the council had for habit to assemble all together when
Obi-Wan called.

“I’m
sorry to ask for a gathering in such a short amount of time,”
Obi-Wan started, bowing
his head a bit. “But I have news that can’t wait and if I did
wait someone else would tattle on me.” His smile was fond of nature
even as he said it.

“The
council is always willing to listen to you Obi-Wan,” Mace offered
up, leaning forward and was it just Anakin or did the man have bags
under his eyes? “But what has happened?” He
asked with a note of curiosity, reading the same thing in Obi-Wan’s
face as Anakin had earlier and maybe also reading Anakin since he
himself wasn’t upset.

Nothing
critical but something upsetting on a personal level.

Glancing
down at his feet, Obi-Wan remained mute for a minute with only the
sounds of troopers shuffling or beeping machines before he sighed
deeply, shoulders slumping as he lifted his gaze to meet the council
members. “As mandatory of the councils rules, I’m hereby
informing the council that I am pregnant and somewhere around the two
to three month mark though Helix was uncertain to the exact time
stamp and I am not certain either.” He informed with a straight
face.

‘…Wait,
what?’ Anakin resisted the urge to rub his ears as he could tell by
Mace’s dropping jaw and Yoda outright dropping his cane in surprise
that he had not misheard.

Obi-Wan
had just said that.

He
was pregnant.

Oh
my fucking FORCE.

“I…see.”
Mace rasped out,
sitting back in his chair heavily.

Shaking
his head, Yoda summoned his cane back up and settled it on his knees.
“Recall you to Coruscant we shall, safer it is for you to return in
your condition.” He murmured out and Anakin strongly
agreed even as he was reeling in shock.

“I
can still fight!” Obi-Wan lifted his hand to his chest. “I’m
not willing to leave in the middle of a campaign, this is not a risk
I’m willing to have.” He frowned at them.

“You
are in sever danger out there Obi-Wan,” Mace leaned forward again,
stapling his fingers together with his elbows on his knees.  “You
could die.” He frowned at Obi-Wan.

“I’ve
always been willing to take that risk.” The redhead crossed his
arms over his chest, frowning deeply at his fellow council member who
was clearly taking the lead on this.

“Yes,
we’re aware you are willing to take the risk,” Mace narrowed his
eyes at Obi-Wan. “But is your baby willing to take that risk?” He
added sternly.

Obi-Wan
physically reacted, looking as if he had been struck as his foot
jerked back while staring at Mace in
open shock with one hand going protectively to his stomach.

Anakin
reached out, settling his hand on Obi-Wan’s shoulder as his own
stomach rebelled.

“Obi-Wan,”
Mace face softened. “No one doubts your ability. However the risk
is not simply to you here but to the child inside of you. Will you
really accept the risk not only posed to you but your
child?” He asked
quietly.

Squeezing
the others hand carefully as Obi-Wan just stared at the council,
Anakin decided it was time to speak. “Obi-Wan, please… we can
handle things here. I
can handle things here, please trust me?” He added softly, finding
the green eyes meeting.
“Please… go home.” Anakin smiled.

Standing
there uncertainly, Obi-Wan stared at him for a long moment before
bowing his head in defeat, nodding slowly. “I will… retreat to
Coruscant…” He whispered.

Idea I’d quite like to see either as a one-shot or in an existing AU. During the CW, a Jedi gets pregnant.

Eep! Babies! How do the Jedi rest of the vod react after they get over their shock? Do any of the vod go to medics to see if they are also pregnant? Does Cody have some daydreams about a family with a certain Negotiator? *wiggles eyebrows* Er, can Jedi also get pregnant?

Listening
to the deep even breaths of the other sharing the bed, Cody allowed
his hand to slowly drift down to cup the flat stomach of the nude
body pressed
tightly to his own equally bare one, the evidence of love making on
reddened skin finally calming down visible to Cody in the ever so
faint light.

Slowly
his fingertips slowly traced the flat planes of lazily
cleaned muscles and
skin, curious and pondering.

His
mind turned back to earlier
in the day, Boil’s
shocked face and the wide eyes, several of the vode checking in with
Helix and the whispered and hurried conversations held between
brothers before they contacted their brothers elsewhere in the
galaxy.

The
news would be spreading soon
and quickly.

Not
to mention the conversation the General had with the council, General
Rancisis had outright fallen out of his chairs with all his long
coils exposed and General Yoda dropping his cane to the floor.

Obviously
they did not expect it either and Obi-Wan had to send in the medical
evidence of course but…

Undeniably,
there was a baby. Boil was carrying a baby.

There
had been arguments, loud ones, Cody and the rest of the vode had
watched in surprise and shock at how the council had quickly argued
amongst themselves about what to do. Apparently somehow the pregnancy
of one clone… changed things somehow.

Something
about the ethical position of it all and contacting the Senate and
Master Depa said something about the clone rights amendments and
contacting Senator Amidala?

After
that they seemed to realize the comm was still wide open and there
was a hurried rush to say goodbye before the holo was finally shut
down but with the silence after that… well now Cody had time to
think, spooning his lover and holding around him.

If
a clone could carry a baby and father it as the baby was clearly
Waxer’s… was it possible that… could Cody just maybe…

“…I’m
on birth control Cody,” Obi-Wan suddenly mumbled sleepily and Cody
jumped guiltily, his hand possessively
flattening down on Obi-Wan’s flat stomach to pull the Jedi more
firmly into his own body before relaxing. “I should have mentioned
that earlier but I forgot.” He yawned tiredly, seemingly
oblivious to the others shock.

Pressing
a light kiss to the back of Obi-Wan’s neck, Cody grunted in
understanding but kept his hand on the others stomach as he felt
Obi-Wan drift off once more with a sleepy little mumble even as his
heart seemed to beat a rapid tattoo inside his chest.

Because
that meant that Obi-Wan could
carry.

And
while sleepy and not really all that aware, he didn’t seem adverse
to maybe some day in the future…

It
made Cody feel giddy as he pressed into the others warm body, despite
the war going on, despite never having thought about a adiik, a child
of his own…

Now
there were possibilities that had never been considered before.

But
it was too late right now to consider those possibilities really and
Cody eased his possessive grip into something lighter and settled,
one of his legs trapped between Obi-Wan’s and his hand loosely
resting on the stomach of his lover.

He
could figure things out in the morning, maybe while getting dressed
and eyeing up Obi-Wan’s rear and the play of muscles as he got
dressed heh.

Certain
perks to an easy attire that you just pulled on and then snapped on
with magnetic tech.

Who
knew, maybe Cody could even give a helping hand here and there with a
few belts.

Eep! Babies! How do the Jedi rest of the vod react after they get over their shock? Do any of the vod go to medics to see if they are also pregnant? Does Cody have some daydreams about a family with a certain Negotiator? *wiggles eyebrows* Er, can Jedi also get pregnant?

Maybe in burning bird Palpatine’s henchman get a little greedy and it leads to Obi being able to escape?

There
he stood in all his hideous glory, a gloating smile on his face as he
stared at Obi-Wan.

Sheev
Palpatine or Darth Sidious, whatever name you called him by it was
all the same to Obi-Wan as he huddled up against the headboard with
his arms going protectively around his middle as if he could protect
his rather large stomach.

Even
the hip pain from his softening cartilage is ignored in this moment
as Sidious steps slowly into the room, his ostentatious robe trailing
the floor. “I was wondering if you would still would be asleep my
pretty birdie, Pong got overeager with the sedation to the point I
wondered if you would actually miscarriage.” The Sith purred as he
closed the distance between them, the
heels of his boots making no noise on the soft carpet of the room.

Obi-Wan
said nothing even as he tightened his grasp around his little birds,
safe as they were in the womb while his eyes flickering quickly to
the door that had closed behind the man and then back to Sidious,
noting with trepidation that the man settled a knee on the bed.
“…Where are they?” He rasped out.

Sidious
stopped his progress, cocking his head a bit before standing and
moving over to a display he placed his hand to which brought out a
terminal that he typed. Good as his vision was, Obi-Wan could see he
was ordering beverage, water jug and an iced tea without caffeine.

‘Avoiding
hot liquids I can throw at him…’ Obi-Wan gnawed on the inside of
his cheek as the man turned back.

“Disposed
off, they have served their purpose as I could hardly have them
lingering around to alert the Jedi council where to find you after
all my pretty bird,” Sidious languish returned to the bed, higher
up towards the headboard and Obi-Wan inched away as best he could
without actually leaving the bed. “Krell
did go down harder than Dibs but then again, four arms does do the
trick for wielding more sabers but a burning throatsack is a
deterrent to stop a besalisk.” The man chuckled cruelly.

There
would be no escape for Obi-Wan but his reluctance would be apparent
still in his desire to not be close to the Sith.

And
then he couldn’t move at all as he was held still in a Force grip,
Sidious raising his hand to grasp the star birds chin and slowly tilt
Obi-Wan’s head back and forth, pale avaricious eyes examining him
closely before the hand settled on his cheek for a moment in a
testing touch before it slowly trailed down Obi-Wan’s neck,
lingering ever so slightly at the throat where the pulse beat a rapid
tattoo and then continuing down slowly over Obi-Wan’s chest until
it rest on Obi-Wan’s bulging stomach.

If
he could move he would be vomiting for sure as he stared at the pale
eyes locked on his stomach, the greed and victory in those eyes
making him sick.

“A
star bird all for myself and soon your mate will come along to try
and free you. He’d do anything for you… and these.” Sidious
sneered, pressing his hand lightly in until Obi-Wan’s stomach hurt.

A
flutter of rage and fear spiked through Obi-Wan before he managed to
let go as Sidious pulled back as the door opened, a droid rolling in
with a tray of drinks and even some snacks. “Well, let not say I
starve my captives.” Sidious chortled, standing up and waving the
droid over.

Utterly
helpless as he sat against the headboard with the collar shining
around his throat, Obi-Wan stared at the man before bowing his head
and begging forgiveness of his children for the danger they were now
in.

“I
suggest you both eat and drink,” Sidious voice, his tone oozing of
smug satisfaction. “You’ll be needing the strength for both
yourself and your little one as I have appointments for you… after
all, I know the power of a star birds blood.”

Head
snapping up, Obi-Wan stared at the other in horror as Sidious smiled
at him with too many teeth, the disguise of grandfatherly parental
worry long abandoned with his pray captured and helpless, like a cat
playing with an overwhelmed bird between its paws, just waiting for a
little twitch for a little bit more amusement.

A
cruel game, that was what this was for the other man.

Reaching
out slowly, Obi-Wan accepted the water of the droids tray. ‘…If I
become weak I will never escape, he’s at least right about me
needing to keep up my strength.’ Obi-Wan stared at the old man as
he drank, shivering under the gaze as it flickered yellow in the
Sith’s avarice.

Maybe in burning bird Palpatine’s henchman get a little greedy and it leads to Obi being able to escape?

There
he stood in all his hideous glory, a gloating smile on his face as he
stared at Obi-Wan.

cruel game, that was what this was for the other man.

Reaching
out slowly, Obi-Wan accepted the water of the droids tray. ‘…If I
become weak I will never escape, he’s at least right about me
needing to keep up my strength.’ Obi-Wan stared at the old man as
he drank, shivering under the gaze as it flickered yellow in the
Sith’s avarice.

Heya! For the SeerHorder what do the other Jedis or the Vods think of Obi-wan’s powers? Are they filled with awe or terrified of what hidden monstrous thing is in Obes pocket? 😂

There
are mysteries of the galaxy that will never be answered.

Where
did the star birds go?

How
did life start truly?

What
is the Force in all honesty because not even the wisest can claim to
really understand the Force.

The
vode would like to tack another question to endless list of questions
that will never really be answered.

What
does Obi-Wan Kenobi keep in his pockets.

Bat
wings?

Maybe.

A
piece of string?

Perhaps
but its more likely to be a piece of electric wire.

A
ring?

Well
there was also a possibility though slim but then again, Cody had
seen the man pull a necklace from his pocket and hand it over to a
man that had taken it with such gratitude before rushing to his
intended to propose so maybe.

Or
that time General Jinn had grumbled about missing his remedy tea that
aided with the pain only for Obi-Wan to reach into his pocket and
throw a bag at the older man without looking at him, still plotting a
tactic with Skywalker and Cody.

That
was the thing, you could never know what in the galaxy the damn Jedi
kept in his pockets like the time he had pulled out the exact
motherboard they needed for the transport shuttle to get it working
again like it was another rainy day and not disaster with bombs
falling around them.

Or
the time he had pulled out a bacta bomb of all things that he
detonated on the field to save Ghost company.

At
this point Cody was warily assured that there was a damn super nova
hidden in Obi-Wan’s pocket that the man had picked up or a black
hole shrunken to pocket size.

Well
maybe that was a bit unfair.

After
all, Obi-Wan adored them and was doing his best to take care of his
troopers and provide them the rights they should have as sentients
that the Senate was being obstinate about with so many of them not
understanding that he clones were exactly like them, living,
breathing and feeling
people who bleed and mourned.

Of
course sometimes even when you expect the unexpected…

Well
Cody had quickly come to realize when Obi-Wan was getting the Force
probings that meant that something was going on.

He
gained a peculiar look on his face as he stared
at Boil before reaching into his voluminous pockets of his robes,
searching around. “Boil, come here a bit.” He called out calmly,
glancing to make sure the trooper heard him before continuing to
search.

Sending
Cody a small frown, the clone moved over with a curious look on his
face. “Sir?” He questioned with some confusion.

Humming,
the Jedi finally drew out a box from his sew in pocket and held it
out to the man.

It
was a some kind of pill box Cody noticed, his frown growing with his
confusion as Boil accepted the box and read on it. “…Prenatal
vitamins?” Boil blinked heavily.

“We’ll
have to remove you from the front line, maybe send you back to
Coruscant.” Obi-Wan hummed, stroking his chin even as the
implication sunk in for the troopers around.

Boil’s
eyes went wide and he stared down at the pack in his hands before his
knees buckled.

Luckily
Waxer was there, catching the other and holding him up against his
body while whispering soothingly.

“Lets
get you to Helix, come on cyare.” The bald trooper murmured with
worry before leading
the other away as Cody ran his hands through his short hair, the
Jedi turning back to the display to write up a message for command to
ensure the safety of Boil and the baby on the way.

Because
apparently
babies came out of
his General’s fucking
robe at this point.

No no no no nooooooo, just how PISSeD is Palps going to be with delivery of his ‘package’? Is the ‘package’ going to arrive or is an intercept in the cards? A rescue or a really bad wake up? Which will BurningBird result in?

‘I
knew it… I knew it, I had a bad feeling the moment they landed. But
this!?’
Anakin stood like a statue as Jango fussed over the unconscious Boba,
the child sporting a bad head wound and saber injuries to his side as
the boy must have tried to protect Obi-Wan despite it all and coming
out of it worse for wear.

But
nothing life threatening at least.

Boba
would come out of this with scars yes but he would live, there would
be no permanent disabilities
like the loss of an arm or a leg.

“I’ve
spoken with the Jedi council,” Anakin jerked to at the grave voice,
turning to look at Yan as the man entered with a serious look on his
face. “They’ll be on guard but there’s not much they can really
do without alerting the chancellor. The clones will have the ship
ready in ten minutes time, are you ready?” The austere count
questioned.

Nodding
firmly, Anakin turned to the former Jedi. “Yes, I want my mate back
and I’ll scorch Coruscant for Obi-Wan.” Fire flickered to life
over Anakin’s body at his words before suddenly stifling and dying
when the blond took a deep, sharp breath.

Yan
watched that, blinking slowly before reaching out and cautiously
touching Anakin’s shoulder. “Easy…” He rumbled.

“I
know, Obi-Wan would not approve if I let go.” Anakin breathed
deeply before shaking his head. “Lets go, I need to get off this
planet, I need to feel like I’m doing something or I’m going to
go nuts.” He grunted.

There
was a shift and they both looked over to where Jango stood, the
mando’a face the picture of rage. “I want to come with. They hurt
my son and I want revenge.” He growled ferally.

Trading
glances, Yan and Anakin hesitated before Yan moved over to the bounty
hunter. “And your son? If he wakes without you here?” He
questioned in a none-confrontational tone.

That
had Jango hesitating, glancing down at Boba who had yet to open his
eyes. “He…arrg…”
He growled and rubbed his face before sitting down heavily on the
bed. “…Pong Krell and Prosset Dibs huh? I’ll remember those
names.” He took Boba’s small hand in his, holding onto it with a
conflicted look on his face before he outright laid down in the bed
and wrapped himself around his son, stroking Boba’s cheek gently.

Watching,
Anakin swallowed, hoping his hatchlings would be alright, that his
mate would be alright before turning sharply, hearing Yan follow
quickly.

‘Hold
on Obi-Wan, I’m coming. Just… hold on.’

Refusing
to open his eyes seems so childish but Obi-Wan will not open his
eyes.

Not
yet.

He
can feel a soft bed beneath him, softer than anything he’s really
comfortable with and silk all around him. And worse than that… a
weight around his neck.

Tight
and clinging, pressing into his skin.

A
collar that blocks him from the Force.

‘I’m
on Coruscant… he
has me now. Oh Anakin please come.’ Obi-Wan quivered, unable to
stop himself.

After
a moment of nothing happening he opened his eyes slowly to look
around the room.

A
fourposter bed with deep red draping canopy’s that could be pulled
down to darken and create a warm little cave, the bed covered in
black silk sheets and a ton of pillows.

Worse
than the bed though not as bad as the collar was the fact that
Obi-Wan’s clothes had also been changed, now sporting a silky almost
sheer blue robe that did nothing to hide the bulge of his pregnancy swollen stomach and Obi-Wan pushed himself up and sat back against
the headboard, staring at the door he suspected was the way out as he trembled at the thought of someone pawing all over him to change his clothes into this.

‘Anakin…
Anakin please…’ He tensed up, the door shifting open as Obi-Wan
clenched his hands into the sheets. ‘Anakin!’
