Chapter 11
Satine and Anakin sat nervously in the waiting room. The medics had taken Obi Wan into an operative room, and they had been waiting for almost a day. No one had come out to inform them on how it was going, and they were slowly panicking.
Satine shifted in the chair she was sitting in. She couldn't believe what had gone on the last few hours. Obi wasn't dead. He was alive! But, how had he survived? That was the question she had been pondering on as she waited for any news about Ben. Suddenly, a nurse came rushing out of the operative rooms and said " Family of Obi Wan Kenobi?" Both Anakin and Satine stood up, but Anakin quickly sat back down. "Anakin, don't you want to see Obi?" Satine asked. "Of course I do, but I'm not family, I'm just his padawan...well ex padawan" Anakin responded " Anyways, that way I'll tell everyone else outside that he's out of surgery and he's your fiancee anyways...I wouldn't want to be a bother" Anakin said, thinking of how he was going to face his master after he had jumped in front of him. If he's not the same anymore, it's going to be my fault. I couldn't be able to live with that Anakin thought.
Satine gave Anakin a small smile. She could only guess what could be going through the young man's mind. She touched his arm, causing him to look up and said "Stop this nonsense, Anakin. You are family. You're Obi's brother and mine too. Don't ever tell yourself otherwise. And of course you wouldn't be a bother. And as to telling the others how Obi Wan is, you can inform them after checking on him yourself"
Anakin smiled a bit, and nodded. He stood up and he and Satine followed the nurse through the many corridors until they reached a door that had a sign that read "Post Operative Rooms" They walked past many rooms until the nurse stopped at one particular door and turned around.
"Here he is" she said. "I do want to inform you on his condition though" Satine started to panic as she heard the seriousness in the nurse's voice. "He had multiple injuries and it's a miracle he's still alive. He has a shattered leg and stitches on his forehead, his torso, and his leg" the nurse said. "Now...his right arm was literally hanging on by a thread...we did our best but..."
Satine started to cry. Anakin looked at the nurse, he felt his fear creeping up his neck, but he managed to ask "What happened to his arm?" He demanded. The nurse was startled as she looked into Anakin's fiery gaze. "We were forced to...amputate his arm. I'm so sorry" Satine gasped, and started sobbing softly. Anakin felt tears sting his eyes. He looked back at the nurse and asked "Is there anything else we should know, or is that it?"
The nurse sighed and said "There's one more thing" Both Anakin and Satine braced themselves for more bad news. "He's not awake, and won't wake up anytime soon. He's in a coma" she said. Those words were spoken and the world came to a sudden stop. Anakin looked down and started to cry and Satine collapsed into the nearest chair. She cried and cried as she stroked her bulging belly and thought What am I going to do?
