===========================
From a Certain Point of View
===========================
Qui: Obi-Wan! You breathe a word of this to ANYONE...I will kill you. Understand?
Obi: Yes Master. I understand completely. I will not tell a soul, you have my word on that. But can you tell me where you got those? You think the girls would like to see me in those? Can...I...
Qui: OUT!! GO!! NOW!! I don't want to see you until dinner.
Obi: Yes Master. But you have to admit, they are very unique, and this is very funny.
Qui: Kenobi? Don't make me kill you know.
Obi: Sorry Master, I am going now.... (Obi ran, laughing hysterically as he flew out the door.)
========================
(Obi-Wan walks towards a group of friends standing near the entrance to the gym.)
Bant: Obi? Where ya been?
Obi: Hi guys. Um...just doing a little sparring with my Master.
Bant: Yeah. We heard something a bit more than that happened. Come on Obi...give us the scoop.
Garen: Spill it Kenobi. And we want the whole story, not the watered down version.
Obi: Okay, okay. Well, Master Qui-Gon and I were sparring. I was winning of course, something he will never admit to. I threw out a couple of low blows, has him pushed back. I was incredible right? But then...he starts getting mad.
Garen: Come on Obi, your Master doesn't get mad. He just gives you that evil...stare. That's bad enough.
Obi: Live with him for a bit...he gets mad. Anyway, he starts losing it...swinging his saber every which way. There was no logic to the attack. I catch his weakness and pin him on the mat.
Reeft: No way Kenobi...you had him pinned? He's like 8 feet tall.
Obi: And strong!! Yep, I pinned the great Jedi, Qui-Gon Jinn. He was thrashing about, yelling at me to let him up. Even tried to force push me away, but I was much to overpowering.
Bant: Obi...you were not...liar. He let you win.
Obi: Oh no, Bant. And the story does not end there. I did eventually let him up though.
Bant: Or, he forced you too.
Obi: I LET him up. You can only embarrass your master for so long. So, he got up and started swinging again. I, of course, blocked everything that came my way.
Reeft: Of course.
Obi: I did Reeft. I don't lie.
Reeft: No, but you exaggerate.
Obi: Maybe a bit. But not about this. I swear to you that all I am telling you is true.
Reeft: Whatever you say Kenobi. So...go on.
Obi: Okay, now...we are sparring again. It's going good. I am matching him at each attack. Then...he takes a step back and flips high in the air...somersaults over my head...not the most beautiful of moves mind you...I need to teach him a thing or 2 about those tricks...
Bant: Obi !! WOULD YOU SHUT UP ABOUT THE SHOWING OFF BIT!!! WHAT HAPPENED?
Obi: Jeez Bant, be a little louder next time. I don't think the people of Alderaan could hear you.
Garen: Obi? Back to the story?
Obi: Oh, yeah...okay...flips and as he lands, he slips and does this kinda splits thing, and all I hear is this loud ripping sound. He straightens up, turns around and there they are, as plain as the ears on Master Yoda's head. I couldn't believe it, my Master actually wearing something like THAT!!!
Bant/Reeft/Garen: WHAT!!!
Obi: He had on, a pair of white boxer shorts...
Bant: That's not funny Obi.
Obi: No Bant, you don't understand...white...boxers...with...with...little...with little...HA!!...with...
Bant: Little what? Obi!!!
Obi: He had...little...lightsabers all over them...little, itty bitty, multicolored, lightsabers...and ...and...
Reeft: And?
Obi: They light up!! Tiny twinkly lights that light up. I think they glow in the dark too.
Bant: You are lying.
Obi: Bant, please...give me a little credit. You shoulda seen them...blue, green, purple, yellow...even a red one!! Oooooo...a Sithly saber.
Garen: So then what happened?
Obi: He grabbed me by my braid, told me to shut up and stop laughing. I was, of course, unable to do that. Then he pulls me to stand directly in back of him. He say's to stay right there, then he yells to another master to bring him his robe. But...they all are laughing so hysterically, they can't do it. So he tells me that if I move, he will kill me.
Bant: How'd you get out of the gym?
Obi: We started inching towards the exit...which looked very professional by the way. An 8ft tall Jedi Master with a 5ft apprentice glued to his backside.
Bant: Obi, Master Qui-Gon is not 8ft tall.
Obi: Close enough. So, we were cruising to the exit. Everyone staring at us...and I mean EVERYONE...they start applauding as we are leaving. My Master's face turns Sith red. I have never seen him so embarrassed.
Reeft: And you are loving every minute of it.
Obi: Well, almost. Anyway, we made it to the gym exit, and standing on the other side is...guess who...Master Yoda.
Bant: No way!
Obi: Yes way! Right there! He asks Qui-Gon why I am stuck to his butt and why he is pulling my braid out of my head. Qui-Gon say something to the effect that we were having a Master/Padawan bonding session. One thing I can say about my Master...he lies well.
Garen: That must be where you get your ability from.
Bant: Quiet Garen...then what Obi?
Obi: We get to the changing room, and I chase everyone else out. They all are laughing as they leave the area. Gossip spreads quickly you know. Qui-Gon tells me to sit down and shut up. I knew he was still mad that I beat him in our sparring match, so I did as he asked.
Garen: Obi? You are good with a saber and all, but you can drop the ' I beat the greatest swordsman in the galaxy ' line. You did NOT beat Qui-Gon sparring. So deal with it.
Obi: You're just jealous Garen, that you didn't get to see it. It was beautiful.
Bant: Good...now back to the boxers with the lil sabers.
Obi: HA !! Right. I asked him where he'd gotten the shorts from. Now mind you, all this is going on after he told me to sit down and shut up. Okay? So, he is NOT a happy camper at this point.
Bant: Hey Obi?
Obi: Yeah?
Bant: Shut up and get to the rest of the story.
Obi: You 3 lack patience, you know that? Sith, I sound like Qui-Gon...that can't be good.
Bant: Obi!!!
Obi: Got ya! He said he got them from a ' friend.' I asked him who the friend was, he wouldn't tell me. Kept saying it was just a friend and that is was none of my damn business.
Garen: Who do you think it was?
Obi: I haven't figured that out yet. What I want to know is...WHERE do you buy something like that, and WHY do you buy something like that?
Bant: I bet they are kinda cute.
Garen: You would. So, he didn't tell you. And I would assume that you are not supposed to be telling us about this incident either right?
Obi: You got it!
Bant: And you punishment for telling us?
Obi: Death. He's gonna kill me.
Reeft: I knew that was coming. Well, it's been nice knowing ya Kenobi.
Obi: Come on guys, he wont find out that I told you. Besides, half the temple already knows about it.
Bant: They know what they saw, not your distorted version of it.
Obi: I tell you the truth Bant. This is how it happened, from...my point of view.
Bant: Well, I bet that Master Jinn sees the incident from an entirely different point of view, and if we ask him...it's a WHOLE 'nuther story.
Obi: We all see things differently Bant. Have no fear, the saga of the boxers with little lightly lightsabers on them will live on for a very long time.
Bant: Uh huh...I bet...in your little world at least. I'd like to hear Master Jinn's version of how all this took place.
