She had seen it in his gaze as he had wordlessly hugged her and took her hand as they left the lower levels and headed up to the main floors. She had kept her hand tightly in hers until they reached where the other padawans were. Neither said anything from hat point on. It was clear that, while she had been through a lot down there by herself, so had he. The question was, what exactly? What was bothering him so badly? She hadn't seen him like this since the first day he had been left with Luke and herself. It bothered her to see him like this. But she kept quiet. She knew how he was when he needed to think and didn't want to bother or upset him more than he already was. It was out of respect for him that she left him be, sitting there while all the other padawans talked excitedly amoungst one another about all they had seen and found. She herself stood against the wall, listening quietly until Master Luke stepped up and began talking to all of them about all that would need to be done once they got back to camp. He had to be aware of the tension his two eldest padawans were giving off. But she also didn't expect him to call them out on it or discuss it with them in front of the younger ones either, so she assumed that he would speak to them about what happened later on. Yet, it seemed Ben wasn't going to wait that long. She jumped a little, turning her attention to Ben as his broken and crackling saber lit up and he slashed angrily at the stair well, staring at him wide eyed with worry as he spoke, telling Master Luke how he felt and demanding to hear 'the truth'. What truth exactly was he talking about? Just what had happened here at the temple to make him so on edge and to suddenly act like this. It...scared her. Luke didn't jump. Didn't flinch. And if what Ben had done surprised the old man he didn't show it. He merely turned calmly to the lad and after a long moment gave a nod, [color=yellow]"Very well, Ben. If you wish to know the truth, I will tell you. But know that, once you hear what happened here and what it has to do with our family, you won't forget it. It is a heavy burden on those descended from the Skywalkers. One not to be taken lightly. I will tell you, follow me."[/color] [color=deepskyblue]"Master?" [/color]Odette spoke up, [color=deepskyblue]"Should I take the others to where we set up camp while you two discuss things?"[/color] Luke looked to her, for a moment in thought, before he shook his head,[color=yellow] "No. Let them rest here for now. We all we head there after I speak to Ben. And you as well." [/color] [color=deepskyblue]"Me?"[/color] Odette said in confusion, shrinking back a little at the thought of having such a serious talk with the Master, wondering what all this had to do with her. [color=yellow]"Yes, Odette. What happened here has just as much to do with the Kenobi family as it does the Skywalkers. Besides, your tension ever since you and Ben returned has been just as clear as his has. Now come. There is a long story to be told."[/color] Then, after instructing the others to stay where they were until the older three returned, Odette walked beside Ben, following Master Luke down the long halls of the Jedi Temple.
