	Timeframe: Pre NJO Genre: humor Characters: Mara Jade Skywalker, Luke Skywalker, OC Summary: Mara Jade Skywalker is staying on Yavin and Luke decides that she needs to teach a class. Notes: This is in response to the Newbie challenge: write a “first” for a character. First: Mara’s first time to teach a class. “So you’re really going to be on Yavin for a while?” Luke asked his wife in disbelief as she scurried around the room, unpacking her belongings. “Yeah, I am. Karrde said that I could work from here for a while.” Mara smiled at her husband of three years. Had it really been that long? Sometimes it was hard to tell. Ever since they had been married, Mara spent more time away from Luke then she did with him. She had spent the last three years transferring duties to other members of Karrde’s organization. Finally, she was left with only a few responsibilities, and could spend time with her husband, even if it was at the Academy. “You know Luke, I really am glad that I will get to spend more time with you, don’t get me wrong, but do we really have to stay on Yavin? You know we have a perfectly good apartment waiting for us on Coruscant.” It was true. Their apartment in Coruscant was much better, in Mara’s opinion, then their rooms in the Academy. At least at Coruscant you didn’t have to worry about wild animals, or snakes, or pests, the extreme humidity… Unless, of course, Leia and Han’s children where home. In that case, you had to worry about the three pests that tended to act like wild animals, and who would occasionally bring home snakes for pets. “Mar, you know I can’t leave the Academy just yet.” Luke smiled at Mara and helped her unpack some of her belongings. “There are still some young Jedi that haven’t been paired with Masters yet.” Luke, in the past few years, had been changing the teaching style at the Academy. There were still classes being taught, but after a certain level, the student would then be paired with a Master to continue their training, much like the Jedi Academy of the Old Republic. “Can’t Tionne do it?” “You know good and well that if I left Tionne in charge here, I would never get away from the Holocom.” Mara couldn’t help but laugh. She finished hanging the last bit of clothing in the closet and went to sit on the bad. Luke followed. “Fine, I’ll stay on Yavin,” She sighed in defeat. “So, in the meantime, what can two bored people do to pass the time?” Mara smiled seductively. She turned to Luke and started to nuzzle his neck. “I’m not bored Mara, but maybe tonight.” Luke stood, leaving Mara to fall, “But if you’re bored, you could always try passing the time teaching a class. We need a new Galactic Economics teacher. The class starts tomorrow after lunch. I’ll get you a class agenda.” He winked at her, and walked out the room. Mara lay on the bed, at a loss for words. By the time she recovered, Luke was gone. “Thanks a lot Skywalker.” TBC

	Cute beginning! But what is up with Luke? Mara has the right idea... Can't wait to see Mara teach... Unless, of course, Leia and Han’s children where home. In that case, you had to worry about the three pests that tended to act like wild animals, and who would occasionally bring home snakes for pets. Dang Solo kids. Love this line, perfect!

	Great begining, CM! “So, in the meantime, what can two bored people do to pass the time?” Mara smiled seductively. She turned to Luke and started to nuzzle his neck. “I’m not bored Mara, but maybe tonight.” Denied! But it was really funny! “But if you’re bored, you could always try passing the time teaching a class. We need a new Galactic Economics teacher. The class starts tomorrow after lunch. I’ll get you a class agenda.” He winked at her, and walked out the room. Ugh... I agree with the title of the chapter.. never get bored! I can't wait to see how Mara handles this... it should be interesting to say the least! I can't wait for more! Would you mind sending a PM my way when you update? Thanks! -----signature----- We don't love the people we love because they are perfect, we love the people we love because they are. http://whiteknot.org -because everyone should be able to tie the knot! ~ "I love that your heart is bigger than your very annoying brain."

	On the Job by CelinaMarnniss Chapter II – Planning Session Mara sat at her desk, looking at the material that was scattered there. Luke had been good to his word, and by the time Mara was back from eating supper at the Academy Cafeteria, everything a person could possible need to teach a class was laying on her desk. There were holo text books, several datapads’s, a teaching manual and the answer guide. That will be helpful. Luke had even thought to give her an Ithorian blue skinned apple, but why Mara needed that to teach Economies, she had no idea. Perhaps a snack? Grabbing a datapad that was on the top of the stack, one that was marked “Important,” Mara found a list of teaching instructions left by Luke. “So now, I guess, he doesn’t think I know how to teach, and that I need instructions? How hard could it be to teach a bunch of Jedi wannabes?” She read over a couple of the instructions: 1. Everything you need to teach is in the teaching manuals. Use this manual to plan and prepare for your classes.[/li] 2. Everything in the holo text books must be covered by the end of the semester. You can, and will need to create the schedule of what you plan to teach the class on what days, to get through the whole book.[/li] 3. Homework is very important to the students and I can’t stress hard enough how important it is to assign the students homework as much as possible… “This is boring Skywalker,” Mara said to the datapad, not even bothering to finish reading the rest of it. She then grabbed a datapad marked “Student Role & Grades.” According to it, there would be exactly fifteen students, roughly around the age of twelve. Isn’t that around the age of the Solo twins? She looked for Jacen and Jaina’s name on the role, but they were not listed. “That’s probably for the better.” She picked up the holo text book and started skimming through it. “According to this, there are twenty-seven chapters in the text books, and we’ll have thirty days of class to cover it. Well, that’s a no brainer. I’ll make them read a chapter a day, and then well will even have a few days left over.” Mara piled everything into a neat little stack at the corner of her desk. “Well, that was easy.” She turned on her computer. “Lesson plan complete! And Luke thought this would be to hard for me.” Mara spent the next few hours playing Spider Solitaire. Finally, around twenty-three hundred hours, she turned off the computer and headed to the sleeping quarters. Luke was already in bed, bare-chested, and covered with a sheet. “Hey Mar, what were you doing?” Mara could tell he had been waiting for her. “Oh, I was just getting my lesson plan together,” she lied. She changed into her night shirt and laid down on her back, on her side of the bed. Luke turned over to her and started to place feather kisses along her neck and jawbone. “Not tonight, Farmboy.” She turned onto her side facing the wall, with her back to Luke. “Big day for me tomorrow, you know. I need to sleep.” Payback’s a witch, ain’t it Skywalker, Mara thought with a smirk, remembering earlier that day. She heard Luke sigh in disappointment and shift back to his side of the bed. “Goodnight Mara,” he told her. “Goodnight Luke.” TBC

	She's evil! 3. Homework is very important to the students and I can’t stress hard enough how important it is to assign the students homework as much as possible… But Luke wins this round. I get the feeling that her "easy" lesson plan is going to fall apart... -----signature----- "If you expect a kick in the balls and you get a slap in the face, it's a victory."

	I think Mara's going to be in for a rude awakening... And poor Luke. Turnabout is fair-play, I suppose... -----signature----- ginchy's gambit: http://boards.theforce.net/beyond_the_saga/b10477/29089731/p1 ** Ready for 2009.
