A Shadow and a Threat

[restoresbalance.livejournal.com]

Luke sat  crosslegged on a couch on the observation deck, staring out into the Bleed, lost in thought.  Things had quieted down on the ship and for that he was glad.  Laater, Luke had resolved to go find Tycho later on and make sure he was doing okay (he'd heard of the other's injury), but until he did that, Luke had come up here to think.

There had been a strange darkness at the edge of his mind--not a dire threat, nothing to send his danger-sense into full alarm, but enough to make him worry.  It could mean that a Sith had woken up, and if that was so, it couldn't be anyone good.  There were several names that came to Luke's mind, and none of those were ones he particularly wanted to put faces to again.  With each, though, he was more worried for Ben's safety than his own.  Ben had had enough dealings with Sith already.  Luke didn't want to put him through that a second time.

But for now he meditated on this strange shadow in his mind, and wondered what he'd do when he ran into the source of it.

Vestara was very, very thankful to find Luke without Ben around for the time being. Interacting with both Skywalkers at once was entirely too irritating for this hour of the day.

"Master Skywalker," she bowed. "I'm delighted to find you undamaged."

Obi-Wan's presence was unobtrusive as always. He hovered politely at the edge of Luke's perception until he felt it had been long enough to be noticed and moved slowly into the room. After all, the view was, as always, breathtaking.
