The Arrival 47 Obi-Wan's Plea

Obi-Wan knew what that would mean. He was very familiar with Mandalorian customs. The winner could do what he wanted with the loser of such a challenge. He had to make it to the emba.s.sy as quickly as possible. Hopefully he could plea for a bit of mercy on Satine Kryze part. If that failed he would atlest try and get her put of their even if that ment he would never be allowed back to the jedi.

He would save her or die trying. Obi-Wan's speeder quickly landed at one of the many landing platform at the building. Mandalorian guards also noticed his arrival and moved to intercept. "Ident.i.ty yourself and state your business!" One of the guards yelled, but time was of the essence so he tried to use the force to mind trick the guards into letting him pa.s.s. "You dont need me to identify myself, and you will take me to see Mand'lor."

If this had been a guard that Coruscant normally provided for an emba.s.sy this would have worked, but Jack did not trust most on the planet so he brought his own people here to guard their emba.s.sy. The guards were Earth born Mandalorians. That trick was not going to fly on this people not one but as one of the guards brought his weapon to bear on Obi-Wan.

"Your d.a.m.n right we are going to bring you to Mand'lor, but not for the reason you think. Trying to pull that jedi mind trick on us you have lost you G.o.d d.a.m.n mind f.u.c.king jedi hands on your head right now!" Obi-Wan was shocked this was not going how he planned but before he could act 20 more guards came pouring out of the building. All of them had weapons drawn. If he did not comply it would be likely he would not even make pa.s.s the front door.

Slowly he rised his hands and placed them on his head. The guards quickly arrested him a d took away his lightsaber. The cuffs they place on him seemed to inhibit his ability to use the force which was another red flag, but there was little to be done now. As he was marched right inside and straight to the Mand'lor. It was not long before he found him self standing front of a large door all the guards surrounding him still had weapons trained on him just in case he made any attempt to free himself.

On of the guards. .h.i.t his holo com and Jack's voice could be heard, "What's the problem Mandalorian." "Sir we had a jedi attempt to enter the facility using the force we have brought him here for you." Jack could be heard sighing, " Very well you may enter." His voice then cut off and the doors began to open. Obi-Wan was greeted to a large open field on the sides weapons were lined up against the walls and Jack was sitting on the floor in the middle of the room with Shaak Ti right next to him.

Jack saw the jedi in question and smiled, " Thank you gentlemen but you can release that jedi I happen to know him quite well he is no threat." The men followed his order and Obi-Wan had the cuffs removed and his weapon returned to him. The guards give their Mand'lor a salute then quickly exited the room. " So what can I do for you knight Ken.o.bi.

Obi-Wan prepared himself then spoke, " I know that Dutchess Satine Kryze has challenge you and lost I am her to ask that you grant her mercy. I will be forever in you debt if you do." Jack laughed and Shaak Ti giggled at the side, "Well now this is a refres.h.i.+ng surprise. To think Obi-Wan Ken.o.bi the jedi who use to have a stick up his a.s.s has fallen in love and with a Mandalorian no less. Oh I will definitely have to tell father about this."

Obi-Wan was startled he didn't know what to say in this situation. Before he could say anything in his defense Jack continued, "Fear not my friend I have not killed Satine Kryze I simply stripped her of her t.i.tle and all benefits she has received from it. I planned to move her back to my home world and place her under house arrest for a few years while I separate her old power base and scatter them throughout my systems, but I could have her station here just for you if you like. She would still be under house arrest but with you visiting her I am sure she will feel better about it."

The worry that had been plaguing Obi-Wan visibly faded, and he let loose a breath he didn't know he was holding in. It was Shaak Ti that spoke next," Let's do that dear and quickly inform father that his old padawan is following in his footsteps. Like father like son I suppose." Obi-Wan quickly looked at Shaak Ti, "Father what do you mean?" With out missing a beat Shaak Ti showed Obi-Wan her left hand and on the ring finger was a ring with a sky blue diamond with a besakar band wrapped around it. "As for 10 minutes I have been engaged and will soon be Shaak Ti Skywalker wife to Mand'lor and Mandalorian myself."

For Obi-Wan this was great news as he had come in a moment when Jack would have been his happiest so giving out mercy would not weigh to heavy on his mind." Well then let me be the first to congratulate you two do you have a date planned for the wedding." Before Jack could Answer he received and emergency holo call from Sharia code black. He looked at the data she had sent him and his happy face quickly turn into a frown.

"Obi-Wan do you happen to know a Jedi Knight called Vam." Obi-Wan nodded, " I do he is one of the jedi senators why what's wrong." Jack did not answer immediately but then followed up with a question, " Do the jedi council have complete oversight on the jedi that enter the Senate or do they let them do things on their own." Obi-Wan was not sure he liked this line of questioning but answered Jack as best he could, " The council at most gives jedi a general direction to head in, besides giving out occasional missions and holding promotions ceremonies they largely leave jedi to their own devices outside of the temple."

Jack seemed to relax a bit as he mumbled to himself, "Good then it is unlikely that his act was on the orders of the jedi council...more than likely he is acting alone or with his group of senators. I need to bait them out just to be sure, and confirm with the jedi council that he is acting without their orders." Obi-Wan could not hear what Jack was saying but felt he need to interject some what," If you need any help I am here I did say I would owe you a favor that I would never be able to pay back, atlest let me start paying it."

This brought Jack out of his thoughts as he looked at the man, " Well then can you see if you can get Master Windu and Master Yoda to meet me here in three days time I need to discuss something with them, and if they ask just tell them it is of great importance. For now I need to go and visit Chancellor Valorum to finish our attack plans so I will have to bid you farewell for now. Do come and vist more often father and mother will be returning to Coruscant in a few days and it would he him well to see a friend."

With that Jack turned to leave with Shaak Ti in toe as they headed to the Senate building to meet with the Chancellor in his office. Obi-Wan also took this moment to leave and head back to the jedi council to deliver the message he had been given. He did not know what was bother Jack but if it had something to do with the jedi then it was not good. More and more Obi-Wan was starting to see the flaws in the way the order had been operating. More and more he was beginning to see that his Master decision to leave may have been the correct one.

Jack and Shaak ride to the Senate hall was a quick flight as they quickly made their way to the Chancellor's office. After a check of identification they were brought in to see the man. On his desk lay stacks of paper as they could see the man furious going through them as fast as he could. Jack could feel the fatigue the man possessed. As Valorum slowly looked up from his desk to see who had entered. " Ah Mand'lor to what do I owe this pleasure." Jack cut right to the point, " One of the Jedi senators has betrayed the Republic he has sent information from the Senate session four days ago to some one on Neimoidia about an hour ago."

Chancellor Valorum paled at the news, " The jedi have betrayed us...?" Jack shuck his head no, " I do not believe it was on the orders of the Jedi council, I believe he is acting alone or with the help of his other jedi senators. I have a meeting with some in the council I can trust in three days to confirm. Of it is was the council who ordered it I will deal with the jedi personal, but again I doubt it will come to that. What I have come here to do was to inform you of the information leak as well as to formalize the next steps we will take."

Valorum nodded, " Then what steps should we take Mand'lor." Jack smiled, " Bait the trap and catch the traitors. So let's call a session meeting were we discuss the plan of action tell the Senate that in 9 months time the fleets will be a.s.sembled and ready to attack then on the 10 month we will launch the a.s.sault. However the truth of the matter is we will be ready in 5 months and launch the attack in 6 and this will only be known to you and me that way if the jedi sends the session information it is unless and we have our evidence."

The Chancellor agrees and the plan was set a day after he confirmed with the jedi council they would have their session and would lay the ground work for the opening move of the war.
