Summary:

Considering that he had picked up what was probably a Sith artifact, promptly passed out in the middle of a war zone, and apparently woken up twenty years in the future with Obi-Wan having taken up residence in his head, Anakin thought he was entitled to have a few questions.

Obi-Wan fell silent as they trudged through the swamp. Eventually, he said, “I told Yoda that I had found a Jedi who had fallen through time, but I didn’t tell him who it was.”

Anakin blinked, surprised. “But Yoda knows me.”

Obi-Wan’s voice was soft. “That’s what I’m worried about.”

Anakin frowned at him. “What’s that supposed to mean?”

They stepped out of the inch-deep water they had been wading through and onto solid ground, which didn’t look any different to the naked eye, but was at least less likely to contain poisonous amphibians. Anakin hoped so, anyway. Obi-Wan might be dead, but Anakin still had to worry about getting eaten alive by indigenous wildlife.

“Ow!” Startled, Anakin slapped at his stinging cheek, expecting some kind of biting insect. “What the – ow!”

Obi-Wan threw up his hands, the Force swelling around them as a barrage of small rocks bounced off the barrier he had created. “Master Yoda, wait! It’s all right, he’s with me.”
