What if you woke up one day and could use the Force? This is a round-robin, set in the Jedi Apprentice time period.
Post your character's (or characters') bios before you begin.
Have fun.

RRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNGGGGGGGG!!!
Clare clicked on the 'post' button just as the bell rang to announce the end of recess. Hurry up, hurry up, she thought irritatedly at the computer. Why can't the school get better computers with faster Internet connection speeds?
Finally, the page loaded and she could log off. Grabbing her bag and file, she dashed out of the computer lab and headed for the Geography classroom.
Taking her usual place at the back corner of the room, Clare set her bag down on the floor and pulled out a Star Wars novel.
Her classmate peered over her shoulder. "What are you reading?"
She turned the book around to show the cover, knowing what her friend's reaction would be: 'Star Wars again?'
"Star Wars again?!"
Clare just grinned.

Amanda turned on the computer dropping her bag discarded on the floor as she entered the house. She really should take it to her room, but that could wait neither of her parents would be home for hours.
She logged on to the net and into the boards. "dookey dookey do....I really wish this thing went faster." She muttered standing up and walking into the kitchen for a snack. Coming back she sat down. "Hmmm....new postys...."

Name: Julius
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Physical characteristics: Black hair, with a few streaks of blonde, and a very strong jaw. Standing at 6 foot.
Country: U.S.A.
Other: Play basketball for freshmen team at highschool and has an insatiable desire to read anything pertaining to Star Wars.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was a hot Spring day and his coach had been running Julius hard for about 3 hours.
"Alright! Get your ugly mugs on the yellow lines, hussel!" Shouted the coach as if we were deaf.
"Are we finally gonna scimish?" asked some stuck up point-gaurd.
Without even looking up the coach said, "Gilman, go take a lap."
The young man shook his head with anger and jogged out of sight.
After the teams had been made, and the tip off taken by the opposing team, Samy had begun to ware down, throwing air-balls and playing horrible defense.
The coah called for a water break and signaled me over to him. I nodded and jogged over.
"Whats up coach?" I asked.
"Look son, I am making up the roster right now, and if you don't start showing somekind of improvement you're off, got it."
Julius was a very introspective person and looked straight into his coach' eyes and turned on heel and jogged back into the game.
After about 3 or 4 minutes Julius had posesion of the ball and was running as hard as possible on a fast break. Suddenly his knees gave way and he was about to fall. Then, using somekind of Force he levitated himself up and dunked the ball so hard it shattered the glass.
/Amazing/ he thought to himself, he had never gotten so high. He shot his coach a look, how immdiately began erasing something on his roster sheet.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thats it for now! Hope you like it!

I love Sci Fi - let me know where you want to go with this too
Dunno yet, but I was thinking the characters meet up with Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan (duh), and they affect the outcome of TPM. Any suggestions?
Nope, not all of them in the same country...that's where the fun lies - getting them together. 
< > < > < > < > < >
Clare put away her book and picked up a sheet of scrap paper from the desk. Crumpling up the sheet of paper and aimed for the plastic dustbin in the corner of the room.
Beside her, her friend Angie tossed her paper ball towards the bin. It landed a few centimetres short. "Missed!" she groaned.
Clare threw her paper ball. Even as she watched it sail through the air, she knew it was going to miss. She should've thrown it with a bit more strength -
She blinked her eyes in disbelief. Were her eyes playing tricks on her, or had the crumpled paper bounced in mid-air to land in the bin?
"Did you see that?" she asked Angie.
"See what?"
"The..." Clare trailed off as she realised how ridiculous she would sound. "Never mind."
The door to the classroom opened, and the Geography teacher entered. It was a good thing that Geog lessons consisted mostly of taking down notes. Clare couldn't concentrate on what the teacher was saying. Her mind kept replaying the scene of the paper ball changing its downward course to jump into the bin.

Name:Adela
Age:11
Gender:Female
Country:Singapore
Physical Chararistics:Super brown long hair.Chinese about 5"2
Other:In Primary.(Pri5) Prefect. Good in English.Bad in Maths. Hates dresses.
Well it would be interesting to see how pple with such a huge age gap get together......
`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~
12:30
"Hey Adela,time for your duty." "Yeah, give me a minute okay. I need to stuff this thing in my bag." "Meet you in the canteen then......and don't be late!"
Sigh..
12:31
The canteen was busting with pple. Trying to chase them up to the hall would be terrible.
Adela approached 1 of the boys and said in a firm voice "Go up to the hall now.". "Get lost!Idiot!" was the reply.
She focused on the guy's brain and said "You will go up to the hall now." "I will go up to the hall now." replied the boy in a dreamy voice.
Adela blinked her eyes. Did she just used a Jedi mind trick on the boy???
Have you got a problem,the force does not exist in the world. she told herself.
Pushing the incident behind her, she continued to do her duty.
2.30
"Adela,would you mind picking up the marker for me? "
"Yes Mrs Ho."
Immediatly the marker flew to her hand away from the floor.
"Huh?"
"Oh good you picked it up fast.Back to your seat now I'm going to teach now."
"Did you see what happened?" Adela asked Kristy her best friend in a low voice.
"No why?"
"Nothing.I think i just imagined it."
"Good now don't disturb me I'm trying to pay attention to the old parrot. "
Through out the lesson Adela just could not take the memory out of her head. It was the second werid force thing that happened.
`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`
So how is it? I'll continue later.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Amanda leaned back in her chair and sighed as she finished up the board she was reading. Standing up she took her plate back to the kitchen and put it in the dishwasher.
"Oh sith!" She muttered as she made a grab at the bag of chips she knocked off the table. "NO!" She grabbed at the bag and was surprised to see it seem to stay still in the air for a moment before falling to the ground.
**OK Amanda, that's it, you're definantly loosing your mind.**

Age: 14
Gender: female
Physical characterstics: a lot of hair, brown hair. quite dark complexion, easily mistaken for another race other than chinese.
yea right clare...i see it's been a while since someone posted anyhing here...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Mrs Yap's here!" someone shouted. I quickly stuffed the tube of mentos i had been holding into my bag...only to feel it slip out of my hand and roll on the floor. Another classmate, Angie picked it up and put it on her table. "haha, it's mine now." I frowned at her and pretended i didn't care though i so obviously did.
My geography teacher started giving out worksheets. I tried to reach across the aisle to grab my mentos back, when i realised that mrs yap was looking at me. "What are you doing?" she asked. "Oh nothing much...just waving my arms about." i muttered. i was thinking only about the mentos, when suddenly something flew across and landed into my hand. "cool!" I heard clare saying behind me. Angie turned and gaped. she could only wonder how the sweet went back to its rightful master.
PS clare...angie?

kimbilili-k-s - Okay, okay. She was the only person I could think of who would be lobbing paper balls into a wastepaper basket! 
And, ah...could you edit your post and take out some of the ~~~'s? 'Cos it's stretching the page and making the posts a little difficult to read...thanks
Darn...it's weird writing about yourself in the third person. I'm gonna switch to 1st person POV and hope it doesn't turn out weird.
< > < > < > < > < >
I felt a funny...twitch? surge? ripple? at the back of my mind -- and the tube of sweets flew impossibly through the air and into Kim's hand.
I gaped in shock. What the -- ?
Then my Star Wars-obsessed mind made the connection.
"Cool," I whispered in awe, and was reminded of the paper ball...
Reality snapped back a moment later. For Force's sake, Clare, Star Wars is a movie. Get a grip. The Force doesn't exist.
Does it?
I couldn't pay attention to the teacher's droning. My body just seemed to go on automatic, eyes taking in the black lines and curves of words on the whiteboard, fingers gripping the pen, hand moving to copy the lines down into a notebook. I was going to regret not listening later, but my mind was just too shocked to register anything.
"...that girl in that corner." Mrs. Yap, our Geography teacher, pointed straight at me.
I gulped, almost panicking. Sithspawn. What question am I supposed to answer?
Then --
It was weird. Plain freaking weird. All of a sudden I could remember the question. One moment my mind was a blank, then next the question popped into my mind. It was like I had subconsciously reached into my memory and extracted it...
"I...uh..." I stammered, then looked down at the blue scrawls on my notebook. I had never had neat handwriting, and still don't have it now. "Uh...ships face the hazard of running aground due to a narrowed channel and a faster flow of water." I rattled off a few more of the consequences listed on the lined paper.
Satisfied, she turned her attention elsewhere, looking for other inattentive prey. I sighed with relief.
Not two minutes later, my mind began to wander again. I was elated. I could use the Force!
Hold it, Clare. Just a few little incidents and you're jumping to conclusions.
Okay, if I tried lifting something, maybe that whiteboard marker -- no. I was not going to alert the whole class to what I could do -- if I could do it. I might have been hallucinating.
Well, in that case, was going to have to talk to Kim -- and Angie; she must have seen it too -- after this lesson. Identical hallucinations don't occur in pairs.

Name: Yan Yan
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Physical traits: short black hair; dark brown eyes; chinese; abt 1.7m
Country: Singapore
Others: same school as JediClare and kimbilili-k-s, netballer, would prefer to describe myself as sporty
lalala, decided to add to the post...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
School's such a bore. Weeelll, geography was fine, it was all copy copy copy and no brain work. I would be copying notes labouriously to make Mrs Yap THINK that I was really paying attention to her voice droning on and on and on, if it wasn't for the small fact that I was desperately trying to get some feeling back into my numbed fingers.
Shavit, I forgot to bring my jacket AGAIN. The room is always so cold, its like the north pole or something.
I decided to give up paying attention to Mrs Yap since she had been going over the subject many times and started drifting off into space, dreaming about what Obi-Wan would really be like in person.
I had been happily visualising the very interesting conversation that I would be having Obi-Wan when out of the corner of my eye, I caught something unusual happening.
NO. It can't be. Get a grip on gurl, there is no such thing as the force or whatever brain power to make things move. Is there?
There was no way I had imagined the scene that played over and over again in my mind. THE TUBE OF MENTOS HAD FLOWN THROUGH THE AIR TO KIM'S HAND!!!!! I was so freaking out. I heard a barely audible "cool" behind me and turned around to only spot Clare with her jaw dropping to the floor. I decided that I would find her later to discuss that. I guessed that she was either the one who MADE the tube fly through the air OR at least she had witnessed the gravity-defying act.
For now, with my dreams going up in smoke, I had to turn my thoughts reluctantly back to boring old geography lesson and wishing that the clock would read 1.50.
GASP!
The clock was really pointing at 1.50. I shook myself and stared again at the clock. I stared at my watch on my hand which only read 1.15. There was no doubt about it. The clock's long hand was pointing at the 10 digit and the short hand was pointing somewhere close to the 2 digit.
"...Yan Yan, what is so interesting about the clock?"
Oops, busted, might as well make use of this once-in-a-lifetime chance.
"Erm, Mrs Yap? It's 1.50 already."
Time to escape from this hellhole.
"Is it?" She turned her head briefly to look at the clock. Then she looked at the watch on her hand." Strange, I could have sworn that it was working a few minutes ago. Never mind girls, We will continue this topic the next lesson, please remember to finish your graphic organisers and bring them for discussion the next lesson."
I guessed that whatever power that I had recieved had made her watch stop ticking.
The whole class was jubilantly packing up their bags and were eager to get out of school and celebrate the weekend. I shook myself out of my stunned state and turned behind quickly lest Clare escaped from my questioning. I looked at her suspiciously and as she noticed my look, only said innocently,"What?"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
There's my contribution for now.

Announcer: We interupt this broadcast to bring you an important announcment. Last night, at around 11:00, the family who lived at 1181, Switston drive, was robbed.
Inside i was thinking 'HOLY S~~t'!but all i could dthink of to say was,"whoa, creepy"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Amanda leaned against the counter. **This is too wild.**
Walking back into the computer room she picked up her bag and ran it upstairs to her room.
**No more fan fiction for you tonight.** She told herself turning on her radio. **Homework time.**
Turning over he bag she dumped the heavy books onto her bed and sat down and the desk picking up the first one.
**Health YUCK!** She thought but opened the book and dutifully began filling out the worksheets.

< > < > < > < > < >
I glanced at my working watch, then back to the blue-and-white classroom clock on the wall. My eyes were not deceiving me. The clock definitely had suddenly and inexplicably sped up. It had read 1.10pm just five minutes ago, but now the minute hand pointed to '10'!
I knew it wasn't because of any faulty mechanism. Just before Mrs. Yap had singled out a classmate for her paying more attention to the clock than to the lesson, I had felt a sort of ripple in my mind, similar to when Kim had called the Mentos sweets to her hand with the Force -- the Star Wars fan in me was convinced that it was the Force -- but not the same feeling. The two ripples were alike, but not identical.
I was sure that the rest of the class knew something was wrong with the clock, but no one spoke up. We were all tired, having first had a strenous P.E. lesson, then a test after that. Everyone just wanted to go home.
I looked up from stuffing my books and stationery into my school bag, and saw the classmate the teacher had called, Yan Yan, looking suspisciously at me.
"What?" I asked her, and wondered if she had used the Force to move the clock hand and stop the teacher's watch. I certainly hadn't -- unless I had done it subconsciously, but I hadn't even been thinking of the time.
The rest of the class and the teacher began to file out of the room, with the exception of Kim and Angie, who were making their way over to us.
"What happened?" Angie was asking Kim in her usual excited way.
"I don't know!" Kim said exasperatedly.
"How did that Mentos fly into your hand?!" she asked in a loud voice.
"Ssshhhh!" I shushed her and shot a look at the open door of the classroom. I was given a curious look. "Look, just...don't announce it to the whole world, okay?"
"But how? What happened?" she persisted. "Don't tell me it's the Force!" she said half-jokingly, but I could tell she was shocked and shaken.
I grinned uneasily. I didn't want anyone else, like her, knowing about it.
Wait. Anyone else? It was then that I realised that I had already unconsciously classified us into two groups. Force-users -- Kim, Yan Yan and me; non-Force-users -- Angie and the rest of the class. Anyone else.
Somehow, I knew that she wasn't a Force-user. She just didn't feel like one.
I decided to try something. May the Force be with me, I thought, then grinned inwardly as it occurred to me how appropriate that phrase was right now.
I focused on Angie's mind.
She hasn't noticed anything. She hasn't seen the flying tube of Mentos.
"You didn't see anything," I said with a wave of my hand, chuckling a little to laugh it off as a joke if it didn't work.
Her mind seemed to...twist. Bend. No, not as strong as that. Waver would be more accurate.
Her face went slightly slack, and she repeated in a monotone, "I didn't see anything."
Force. It worked. It actually worked!
I could see Yan Yan's and Kim's eyes widen in astonishment. Then the former made a casual gesture, much like mine, and said, "Nothing happened."
A ripple.
"Nothing happened," Angie repeated dutifully.
Now Kim gestured. "You will leave now."
Another ripple, but slightly different.
"I will leave now." Angie turned and walked right out of the classroom without even a single glance back at us.
This is unbelievable.
I gave both Kim and Yan Yan a broad, excited grin.
This was a dream come true.
