This will be a series called: The Blind One. Normally I don't write Star Wars fanfics, but since I have been in the Star Wars mood I began writing this. Here is chapter one of The Blind One. Please note: I own none of the Lucasfilm characters or planets. Sanar is an OC I made up. Enjoy!

It was quiet in the Jedi Temple. Master from all over the galaxy walked up and down the halls talking to one another about future missions and their padawans. Among all these other Jedi, the Council was holding a meeting in the Council Room. Inside, the Jedi gathered in their chairs to speak of a matter that Master Kenobi brought up. Unfortunately not all the Council members were available, so holo-projections of themselves took their places. Soon as everyone quiet it down, Mace Windu began the meeting.

"Master Kenobi has brought up a matter in which all of us need to discuss." Mace Windu began the discussion.

"Speak of the matter, you will." Master Yoda chimed in.

"Of course, Master. Kenobi wishes to bring on another padawan, even though he has Skywalker as his apprentice. I think it would be difficult to have two people to teach the way of the Force. But he wanted us to give our opinions on his wish." Windu explained.

The masters whispered among themselves, pinging their opinions of one another and asking if it's lawful for a master to have an apprentice and an padawan at the same time. Yoda looked around the room of all the master, watching them converse with one another and not with Windu or himself. He feared that the masters don't have enough faith in Master Kenobi for him to have two people under his wing. Although it can be done, it's just very rare when a Master asks for another padawan, especially one who has an apprentice.

"May I say something?" Master Mundi stepped up.

"Speak if you will." Yoda stated.

"I have known Kenobi for years, and if anyone has faith in him and in how he teaches, it's me." Mundi beamed.

With that being said, the other masters nodded in agreement to Mundi's statement. That only lead to one thing: Yoda had to agree and pick a padawan for Kenobi to train. Windu looked down at his master and waited for his response on the matter. Knowing Master Yoda, his agreements were quite easy to predict, but this one was a little harder to see happening.

"Wise Kenobi is. A challenge we shall give him. Padawan I will choose." Yoda stated.

"Excellent! When can I tell Master Kenobi?" Windu asked Yoda.

"Tomorrow, you can." Yoda replied with a little smile.

Anakin Skywalker was busying himself in the training room. He was alone, and a little upset. He has been having these nightmares of his mother off and on, and it has made it harder to fall asleep and focus on missions. As he began his saber training, a young woman entered the room. She was not that younger than Anakin was, but her height was obviously different than his. Anakin watched her as she walked over to the other side of the training room. Anakin couldn't take his eyes off her. The woman started her training with hand to hand combat, hitting invisible targets in front of her and making hand movements with each hit. Next she brought out her saber initiated in combat with the training bot. The color of the crystal was extremely rare for padawans, something even Anakin has never seen. A purple lightsaber.

"She's good." Anakin said to himself, as he continued to watch this woman's training.

"Are you done staring at me, Skywalker," the she asked.

A deep red shade colored Anakin's face. She found out that he was watching at her, taking in every move she made during her training. He turned around to face her, but came to find out that she wasn't even looking at him. The woman's gaze was upon the wall across from her. How can she do that, without seeing Anakin?

"I sensed your gawking presence," she stated.

"Oh really?" Anakin said with attitude.

"Indeed. I felt your gaze upon me, that's why I stopped training. It was most disruptive," the woman replied with the same attitude.

Anakin grinned softly at the woman, as she sheathed her saber and made her way over to him. As she got closer, Anakin could make out her features. Her hair was a black that reach over her shoulders. Her skin; tan as the Tatooine earth he grew up on, and her face was rounded with high cheek bones.

"A pleasure to finally meet your acquaintance, Skywalker," she smiled and stretched out her hand.

"The pleasure is all mine. Your name?" Anakin shook her hand gently.

The padawan grinned. She wasn't going to give him her name up that easily just yet; anticipation was key for this padawan. Anakin looked at her weirdly, he was unaware as to what her plan was.

"I'll tell you my name, sooner or later. Just not right now, Skywalker," the padawan smiled.

Without another word, the woman left the training room. Anakin watched her in bewilderment, as to who this padawan was exactly and why were his thoughts now only revolving around her.. He needed to know who this padawan was, what her name was; it was going to bother him if he didn't find out.

After training was finally over, Anakin went to the library to search for the padawan he met, hoping she would appear in the records. He took a seat in front of one other computers, and started typing in the padawan's description. But nothing he typed in, linked towards this mysterious padawan in the training room.

"Who are you?" Anakin mumbled to himself.

"Can I be of any assistance, Skywalker?" Jocasta Nu asked politely.

"Hmm? Yes, I met this padawan in the training room this morning, and she didn't give me her name. Would you mind searching for her?" Anakin asked with a gentle smile.

"I'm afraid I cannot, Anakin. If you don't know her name, then I cannot help you." Nu apologized.

Anakin sighed. He was afraid if that. Whoever this padawan was, she sure was a mystery to him. With a bow, Anakin left the library and made his way to meet up with Obi-Wan in the council room with Master Windu. As he made his way up there, his mysterious padawan was outside the council room talking to Master Yoda. He couldn't help but watch her again, even though he should've been inside the council room with his master; she truly was a mystery to him.

"Anakin, council room, now." Obi-Wan ordered.

"Coming, Master." Anakin replied, as he entered the doorway to the council room with the roll of his eyes.

"Thank you for meeting me, Master Kenobi, Anakin." Windu stated.

Obi-Wan and Anakin bowed their heads slightly, addressing Master Windu in the proper manner, and then they took their seats.

"I suppose you two are wondering why you're here." Windu asked.

"I am wondering…" Anakin replied rudely.

"Anakin…" Obi-Wan glared at his apprentice.

Anakin was about to apologize, when the mysterious padawan entered the council room unannounced. A smiled was painted across her face as she walked by Anakin, and seated herself next to Master Winder. Anakin's eye widened at the sight of her being in the meeting with his master. Obi-Wan smiled big, he knew exactly what was going on here and he couldn't help but thank the council's agreement for his wish to come true.

"Obi-Wan, Anakin, meet Sanar Tallev." Windu introduced the padawan.

A smirk spread across Anakin's face when he finally knew the mysterious padawan's name.

"A pleasure to meet my new master." Sanar bowed before Kenobi.

Anakin's smirk disappeared when he heard the padawan say 'master'. Master Obi-Wan was this woman's new master? Was Anakin getting a new master; this was all very confusing for the apprentice.

"Master Kenobi asked for another padawan. So, we gave him Sanar. She is very talented...for a blind Jedi." Windu explained.

Blind? She was blind this whole time? Anakin couldn't even tell that she was blind. Not even in the training room when she sensed him looking at her. That explains why her back was turned the during her training time.

"I'm blind by birth. I see through the force. That's how I could tell, Anakin was watching me in the training room this morning." Sanar explained.

Obi-Wan's smiled grew bigger. He knew that Anakin and Sanar would become fast friends, it'll just take getting past each others ego before breaking the ice they both have built up. Windu smiled too. This is going to be a start of a beautiful friendship for these two.
