RE: What if you woke up and could use the Force? RR (JA)
OOC: hehehehe. Great post, Fanficfan!
Andi
Andi sat very still, as she realized she was in the gardens, with nothing but a sheet with her. She was a long way from her room, and for minutes, she had trouble focusing her thoughts. The sun was setting, but realizing your naked, tends to take away from the beauty of a sunset.
As she sat there, trying to figure out what had happened, and what she would do next, she caught movement nearby. Andi yanked the sheet tightly, startled, as she froze, trying to see who was moving about. Andi went three shades of red, as she realized with horror it was not another Jedi, but the man that had chased them eariler. Same day? Wow. What was his name...? Vask. yes, that was it. She squinted her eyes as he came a bit closer. She was NOT going to move.
Vask suprised her. He quickly removed his jacket and offered it to her.
"Do Jedi Padawans normally show up in the gardens wearing just a sheet? Or are you trying to start a trend?"
Andi felt her cheeks burn even more, as she made a face. She wished she could simply dissapear. She then shrugged her shoulders, and shook her head. "Start a trend, of course!" she replied, trying not to sound so embarrised. "Not that there is much diffrence from the tunics they wear around here ... thought I'd try something diffrent." She was NOT going to try and explain it. She had no clue what had happened, and she sure as heck was not about to admit it. She took the jacket he offered, but then froze..as she tried to figure out how to put it on, without him seeing even MORE of her than what was already showing. A few quick ties, and twists, and she managed to wrap the sheet in such a way, that it covered what was needed. She quickly slipped on the jacket.
"Thanks..." She said softly, as she now carefully stood up. She wobbled a bit, and she shook her head. "Sorry..." she murmored. "Not quite myself, just yet." Andi looked up, and then over to the side of the gardens. She reached her forhead, rubbing the temples a moment, before she spoke once more.
"Ummm. I think, I should head back to my quarters...and change clothes. Enough of my fashion show for now." She looked over at Vask. "Have you eaten yet?" she asked him.."I think I could use a cup of Cafa right now.." Andi closed her eyes for a moment, as she suddenly remembered she was not the only one feeling off. She tried to see if she could feel Mynn's presence back within the Force. Doing so allowed her to feel anothers presesnce. Andi opened her eyes and smiled. She then laughed softly.
"Excuse me. I need to return to my quarters for a moment. Last thing I need, is to explain to the Masters why im walking around Toga style."
Andi took a few careful steps. She felt better as she walked. Taking a big breath of air, she began to make her way out of the gardens, pausing ever so often to get her bearings. She was trying not to think thoughts of revenge to a certain being, once she made her way back to her quarters. At her pace, it was going to take awhile.
Elon
Elon stood near the entrance of the gardens. He had been running, but stopped, once the strange sensation from Andi subsided. He knew the calling card feeling well. But showing up in the gardens, well that was something new. He felt her embarrasement, as she came to realize that she was quite naked underneath the sheet. Elon was simply happy that she remembered to bring the sheet.
He stopped, listening to Andi speak to the new person, Vask. Elon was not sure how he felt about the young man yet, but Master Yoda seemed to be taking him at face value at the moment. He felt Andi's tenative check within the Force, searching. He sent her back a wave of assurance.
Elon would hang back for now. No need to interupt just yet.

Vask
"Starting a trend indeed," Vask chuckled. Then turned away to give her some privacy while she... rearranged herself.
After a few moment she spoke again,
"Thanks,"
He spun back around to find her up on her feet, she wobbled slightly and Vask was about to reach out a hand to steady her but she recovered quickly.
"Sorry... Not quite myself, just yet.
"It's no problem, you had quite the day today."
"Ummm. I think I should head back to my quarters...and change clothes. Enough of my fashion show for now." She looked over at Vask. "Have you eaten yet?" she asked him.."I think I could use a cup of Cafa right now.."
"A nice cup of Cafa and a decent meal would certainly go down well about now."
He gave her a slightly bemused grin when she started laughing,
I didn't say anything funny did I?
Vask thought to himself, as she continued.
"Excuse me. I need to return to my quarters for a moment. Last thing I need, is to explain to the Masters why im walking around Toga style."
"Well, the Toga is good enough for the Alderaanian philosophers. Besides, it looks good on you." As soon as the words were out of his mouth Vask wanted nothing more than to take them back,
nice going Hutt-drool. Real slick.
"Uh, you go do what you gotta do, I'll just meet you in the dining hall... If you still wanna get that Cafa... Uh, yeah..." With that he headed for the exit, striving to look casual but probably failing miserably. As soon as he rounded a corner he sprinted away from the gardens until he found a nice quiet area somewhere higher in the temple.
"Nice one Vask," he hissed to himself as he stepped into a recessed niche. "Why don't you just invite her into your bed next time you stupid nerf-herder? She's a Jedi for kriffs sake. An hour ago she thought you wanted to kill her, two hours ago you were following her around an amusement park. You know nothing about this woman except that she comes from some practically unknown world beyond the Outer Rim, and you don't even know her name... Stay the hell away from her."
He wanted nothing more than to punch something, but knew that the polished stone surface would only give him cause to spend more time in the medical ward. He compromised by punching his leg, then started making his way back down to the dining hall to meet up with the Jedi, if she bothered to show.

OOC: Glad ya like!
Andi
Andi was glad when Vask turned away to give her some privacy while she rearranged herself. After a few moment she spoke again, "Thanks," He spun back around to find her up on her feet, she wobbled slightly and Vask was about to reach out a hand to steady her but she recovered quickly. "Sorry... Not quite myself, just yet. " she said softly.
"It's no problem, you had quite the day today."
Andi gave a nod. "Ummm. I think I should head back to my quarters...and change clothes. Enough of my fashion show for now." She looked over at Vask. "Have you eaten yet?" she asked him.."I think I could use a cup of Cafa right now.."
"A nice cup of Cafa and a decent meal would certainly go down well about now."
He answered quickly. Well, at least the one called Vask seemed normal. She still didnt quite trust him, but she was at the temple now. And she really COULD use a bit to eat.
"Excuse me. I need to return to my quarters for a moment. Last thing I need, is to explain to the Masters why im walking around Toga style."
Vask was quick with the reply.
"Well, the Toga is good enough for the Alderaanian philosophers. Besides, it looks good on you."
Andi stared at her feet, trying not to let the grin she felt reach her face. Her cheeks flushed again.
"Uh, you go do what you gotta do, I'll just meet you in the dining hall... If you still wanna get that Cafa... Uh, yeah..."
With that he headed for the exit. Andi noticed he seemed to be moving rather quickly. A few seconds later, he was gone, and she could hear rapidly moving footsteps. She stood for a moment, quietly musing what that was all about, before her stomach reminded her it was in need of food.
With a wobbly step, she turned, and made her way to the edge of the gardens...
To be met by Elon. She looked up, too tired to even say anything else. She just shook her head.
"I take it, our friend is back." he stated gently, as they began walking back to their quarters. Andi gave a nod. "I REALLY hate his little tricks.." she muttered.
Elon grinned, but wisely decided to to respond just yet. He simply walked with her back to their quarters. Only when entering the room, did he make a comment.
"Nice clothing. Glad you remember the sheet."
With a small shriek, Andi bounded off for her room, pausing only long enough to toss the jacket she had borrowed towards him.
Elon laughed, as he heard the door quietly swoosh close. He then picked up the borrowed jacket. He gently laid his hands on it, using the Force to find out more about its owner, while Andi got dressed proper.
He was quiet for many long moments, until he heard the doorway open once more, and Andi re-appeared, this time more properly dressed, but in civilian clothing. He raised an eyebrow, but said nothing.
Andi took the jacket. "I should return it to him.." she stated, shrugging her shoulders. "Indeed." Elon replied, giving her a knowing look. Andi gave a slight yawn. "I wont be long. Still kinda tired."
Elon nodded, as he watched Andi leave, heading for the smell of Cafa. She felt like she hadn't eaten in a week. That was strange. Probably had something to do with why she felt so tired. Oh well, easy to take care of.
Andi entered the meal area, and began to look around, as she grabbed a tray.

Vask
Vask had made it to the dining hall and he'd managed to grab a decent selection of food and found a table when he saw the woman enter and grab a tray. He waved to her to show where he was sitting and waited while she got some food, idly picking at his own in the mean time. He stood as she approached and pulled a chair out from the table for her, "we didn't exactly meet in the best circumstances so I propose a fresh start. My name is Vask, Dernan Vask, bounty hunter and merc for hire. Currently employed by the Jedi Order."

Andi
Andi walked into the meal area, and grabbed a tray. She had just barely began to start picking items, after pouring herself a cup of Cafa, when she spoted someone waving to her.
Vask.
She finished picking out her foods, wondering why she was eating with him. She was starving, true, but she couldnt figure out why she had asked him to join her. It was the most strangest feeling.
Andi approached the table, and pulled a chair out from the table for her. Andi looked up a momment, before she took a seat
"We didn't exactly meet in the best circumstances so I propose a fresh start. My name is Vask, Dernan Vask, bounty hunter and merc for hire. Currently employed by the Jedi Order."
Andi nearly choked. The Jedi Order? What had that green toad done now?!?! Andi sat down, and shook her head.
"Now, thats something you dont hear too often." she said, trying to give a smile, as she reached over, to take a huge gulp of her coffee. It was so surreal. After waking up in the gardens, everything felt funny. And she still had not heard from Mynn yet. Master Elon was no help either. With a long sigh, she put down her cup.
"Im Andi.: she said, mumoring slighlty. How does one exactally break into conversation with someone who had been chasing you not so long ago? Andi gave a slight grin. "Sorry..dont have quite a interesting title as you." She paused, taking antoher sip of coffee. She then looked up straight at Vask and asked. "There was antoher guy there. Did you see him too? Was he working with you?" she asked.
As Andi waited for a response, she gently started to pick over her food, deep in thought. Something was going on. Why did Master Yoda trust him so? Had to be something to it. Andi began to bat a berry around her plate, as she drank her cafa.
Andi stopped suddenly, her head came up slowly, as she looked over to a set of doors not to far away. She had the distinct feeling they were being watched.

"Not that's something you don't hear too often."
Vask chuckled as the woman sat down, "it's not something I say very often."
"Im Andi,"
she murmured, grinning slightly.
"Sorry..dont have quite a interesting title as you."
"What do you mean? Andi, Jedi Padawan isn't a title?" He shot back with a grin on his face.
"There was another guy there. Did you see him too? Was he working with you?"
Andi asked, wiping the grin off Vask's face.
"Yeah I saw him, and no he definately wasn't working with me. That rancor spit took a chunk out of my shoulder with a lightsaber when I went after him." She'd been playing with some of her food while he spoke, then her head came and she turned to watch the doors.
"What's wrong? Was there someone there?"

Andi
Vask chuckled as the woman sat down, "it's not something I say very often." he replied to her eariler comment. "Im Andi," she murmured, grinning slightly. "Sorry..dont have quite a interesting title as you."
"What do you mean? Andi, Jedi Padawan isn't a title?"
He shot back with a grin on his face.
"Not the same.." she murmored softly. She then spoke up once more, this time serious. "There was another guy there. Did you see him too? Was he working with you?" Andi asked, wiping the grin off Vask's face.
"Yeah I saw him, and no he definately wasn't working with me. That rancor spit took a chunk out of my shoulder with a lightsaber when I went after him."
Andi heard him, but something was catching her attention. She turned to watch the doors.
"What's wrong? Was there someone there?"
she heard Vask ask. She started to reply, when again she felt a much stronger pulse. Andi put down her fork. It wasnt Elon.
//Master, Im picking up something ... strange.. It feels like...//
Andi stood up now. She looked over slowly at Vask for a moment. "Something is wrong." she murmored softly as she looked out over the doorway. "Someone is here...that shouldnt be..." she added, as she loked back out over the doorway. Andi turned, and then began to head off towards the doorway.
Andi reached the doodrway, and looked both ways for a moment. She ignored Elon's mental call, as she looked down the hallway. She then took off running down the corridor.

Master Yoda sat next to the bed in thehealer's ward keeping guard over the sleeping padawan. Concern crossed the anchient features, the terran's presence stil couldn't be felt in the force. Why? The question tumbled around in Yoda's thoughts, while he reviewed the decades..centauries of knowledge contained within his memory. The Force was guiding him ina manner that to him was a bit...unusual. It was risky.
He rested small green hand on her forehead, his eyes closed in deep concentraition. It'd be only a matter of time.
--------------------------------------------
A small figure in a much too large over robe wandered towards the cafeteria, poked it's clocked head inside, eyes scanned the room, then left, deciding maybe getting the caf at this time of night would be a tactical error of epic proportions..
I'd never go to sleep. Last time I drank that, master was climbing the walls.
A little muttering,the figure sat down on a bench next to a fountain. With a snort, a mild growl, and a lot of digging through folds of fabric, a hand extracted the small global link from a pocket and sent a text message.

Hi Andi, Ya' doing alright?

It was very scant second before the responce came.

Vask
Vask continued watching Andi while she put down her fork. For just a moment her eyes met his before they slid away again, searching for something outside the doorway.
"Something is wrong,"
she mumbled, so quietly that Vask almost missed it. "What is it?" he whispered back, "what' wrong?"
"Someone is here... that shouldn't be."
Vas kwas about to respond, suggest they contact Yoda or one of the other masters, when Andi stood and headed for the door, "or we could investigate ourselves..." he muttered to himself as he got up and followed the woman. And reached the door and looked both ways, paused for a moment, then took off running just as Vask reached her.
Oh not again?
his mind wailed as he ran after her,
these Jedi are gonna be the death of me.

RE: What if you woke up and could use the Force? RR (JA)
OCC: And their OFF and running..!!...weeeee!
Elon
Andi had called out to him, while she had been out with the new person, Vask, in the meal area.
//Master, Im picking up something ... strange.. It feels like...//
Elon tried to reach her, to ask what it was she felt, but he was not getting a response. Elon sighed. Sometimes, Andi could get so preocupied that she ignored everything. But this didnt feel the same. Her mind was focused. Almsot painfully so.
Elon turned, and left their quarters, and began moving, heaing in the general direction where he could sense her. He pulled out a comlink, and
called another, as he began to move. If there was something going on, it would be easier, with the help of another.
He picked up his pace as he moved, as he now felt She was now running.
Andi
Andi reached the doodrway, and looked both ways for a moment. She ignored Elon's mental call, as she looked down the hallway. She then took off running down the corridor.
Andi felt a vibration. She reached down, and pulled out her comlink, but didnt respond. Not yet. She scanned the area. She was searching the corridor. The sensation she felt, seemed to get stronger in one direction. She kept moving, just vaguely aware that Vask was nearby.
She turned, and came to a dead stop. She was staring down a corridor. A DARK corridor. She frowned. This corridor should not be dark. She didnt quite recognize the area. Her frowned depened. That didnt quite make sense either.
She didnt move, but instead waited for Vask. The vibrating comlink begged for her attention. She read the text, and typed in one word.
'ok'
She continued to stare down the corridor, and she asked Vask when he caught up to her.
"What do you see?" She paused. "Or better yet...what DONT you see?" she asked him softly.
She swore she smelt something sweet, while they stood in the hallway. Okay. This was officially getting wierd. And still the strange sensation. Right on the other side of the corridor. Almost like it was waiting for her.

Vask
Even running flat out, and Vask was, he couldn't keep up with Andi. It was all he could do just to keep her in sight before she turned a corner or entered a doorway. So it came as some surprise to the Mercenary when he found her standing, quite calmly with the sort of gentle breathing that suggested a light stroll in the gardens as opposed to a flat out sprint through half of the Temple.
Bloody Jedi,
Vask thought, not even bothering to shield his thoughts,
I'd like to see her do that without the Force.
As Vask came to a halt just behind her, Andi's comm unit pinged to signify a message successfully sent. Before he could say anything she caught his attention, "what do you see?" she asked. "Or better yet... What DON'T you see?"
It was a bit of shift from where he'd expected the conversation to go, but Vask was an adaptable man. He quickly looked around, noting the lack of people and the darkness of the corridor...
Why is the corridor dark? I thought the Jedi liked to have lots of light...
"There's no lights on," he murmered back to Andi. "No lights and no people around. And..." He took a deep breath through his nose, "cleaning chemicals never smell that sweet. Trust me, I did 3 months as a janitor once trying to track a bounty."

RE: What if you woke up and could use the Force? RR (JA)
OOC: YAY! Another Micheal post. Not really happy with the ending though
Micheal
Several days had passed since Nejaa and I had spoken of my idea to organise a revolt, and in that time I had barely seen the Jedi Master. I was beginning to suspect he was trying to avoid me when I got a message from him.
Meet me at the Skipray hanger, 1530.
I quickly checked the chrono on my datapad, checked the message again. "Bloody Jedi..." I muttered as I jumped to my feet and ran for the door.
Twenty-five minutes later I sprinted into the massive hanger, nearly 10 minutes after Nejaa's appointed time, to find two dozen people waiting for me. I skidded to a halt as Nejaa stepped forward smiling, "You're late..."
"You gave me fifteen minutes to make a 40 minute speeder trip," I shot back. "I think I did quite well."
"Another one of your infamous Padawan tests Master Halcyon?" one of the group chuckled.
"No no, young Micheal here is not my Padawan. He is rather, an accomplice." The Corellian master glanced around at the confusion etched on nearly ever face, "perhaps I'd better let Micheal explain, he tells a better tale than I do."
I was finally beginning to realise exactly who was in this hanger with us. I gently opened myself to the Force, slowly lifting the walls Palpatine and Dooku had taught me to create, before very quickly slamming them back down again.
Bloody hell Nejaa, you're gonna pay for this, very dearly.
"Am I to assume, Master Halcyon, that I will be addressing Jedi knights loyal to their planet?"
"Oh yes, and Masters too. I believe there is even a Padawan here somewhere."
"That'd be me." A gentle voice called out from near the back of the group, a delicate hand shooting into the air and drawing my eyes down to a vision of perfection.
Ok, Micheal, I don't know if you realise this, but now probably isn't the best time to go all drooly, ok?
Oh shut it. I'm not drooling.
Yet. Not drooling yet. But what you are doing is staring vacantly towards a rather attractive young lady while you chat to the voice in you head. Didn't you have something to share with these Jedi?
Oh bugger...
"Ah, well." I coughed slightly cover my brainlessness.
Don't think it worked though...
"I don't suppose Master Halcyon told you anything about why you're here? Or who I am?" None of the assembled Jedi said anything, content to wait till I realised they hadn't been told
anything
. "Right, well. The first thing you really should know is that I'm not a Jedi. I was trained in the use of the Force by a Dark Lord of the Sith."
As I'd expected that little bit created a bit of a stir, one of the Jedi even pulled out his saber, but a look from Nejaa had him replacing the weapon. "Let him finish," the attractive Padawan called out from the back.
"Thankyou." I paused a moment, waiting for the muttering to die down. "I said that I was
trained
by the Sith, not that I was one. I made my escape from his apprentice when I learned who they actually were, as well as where and when I was."
"What do you mean by 'where and when?' How could you not know when it was?"
"Because I did not grow up here. I wont go into detail because you wont believe me anyway."
"Why don't you try us?"
She's not just a pretty face Micheal, could be a good girl for you.
Shut up.
"Maybe I will. But not today. At the moment I'm not ready to share and you don't need to know. What you do need to know is that the Sith are preparing, and if we can't change things then within 20 years to Republic will fall, and the Jedi will go with them."
"How could a couple of Sith topple to Republic? The Jedi Order is the strongest it's ever been. One Sith Lord couldn't possibly hope to take on 10,000 Jedi."
"He wont. The Sith will never openly reveal themselves to you. That's not the way they work anymore. They operate from the shadows, manipulating events. They will never willingly come out and fight you, but you will always be fighting against them. Fighting and dying. And you will never even know who it is."
"But you do. You know who the Sith Lord is, you could tell us. We could end it before it begins."
"No! It doesn't work like that. If I just tell you what happens then it doesn't solve anything. It puts a bandage on the wound when what you really need is a bacta dunk. The problem isn't that the Sith are active. The problem is that they have evolved, they have learned, they have studied their enemy and they have planned. For years upon years the Sith have been planning the end of the Jedi. And what of their enemy? What of the Jedi? How has the Order grown in the last thousand years? You have not. Since the defeat of Bane the Jedi have been stagnating, too firmly rooted in their traditions to evolve. And now those traditions will kill you all. Unless we can change it."
"You keep talking about changing things, like it's already happened. And you said before that you didn't know 'when' you were. Care to do a bit of explaining?"
She's very sharp Micheal. I like her.
"Not particularly. But for the sake of being believed let's just say that I know the past, and I've seen one of the possible paths laid out for the future. And with every last breath in my body I'm gonna do everything I can to make sure it doesn't happen like that."
"How do you plan to do that?"
"Am I ever so glad you asked that. And I'd like to say, it's nice to see someone other than our resident Padawan asking intelligent questions. I doubt you'll actually like much of my plan, Nejaa didn't when I first told him and I doubt he likes it even now. Here we go though."
"Ok, the first thing you all should know is that if things don't change then the Jedi will die. I don't mean individual Jedi, I mean the entire Order. This happens for many reasons, but the main ones are the stagnancy of the Order and the Sith's ability to predict the actions of the Jedi and the Republic. Therefore what we really need to do is shake things up a little, both among the Jedi and in the Senate. I've already spoken to Master Halcyon and with the director of Corellian Security, Rostek Horn, about what I think we should do and we believe it'll be possible."
I took a deep breath before I continued, knowing that the future could hinge on the reactions of these Jedi, "I want to arrange a secession."
"What?! You want Corellia to secede from the Republic? You're crazy."
"Actually, I'm completely insane, and secession isn't even the half of it. Not only do I want Corellia to leave the Republic, I want them to take as many other planets with them as possible. And..."
Here's the hard part...
"... And I want the Corellian Jedi to support it."
I'd expected a bit of a reaction. I hadn't expected total pandemonium to errupt in the hanger. After a few fruitless attempts to regain order I turned to Nejaa, "err, a little help here if you would be so kind."
"Certainly young Micheal. SILENCE!!!" His yell echoed not just throughout the suddenly silent hanger, but through the Force as well.
Neat trick, you should get him to teach you that.
Quiet. Now is not the time.
"Thanks," I murmed to Nejaa before facing the assembled Jedi again. "I know that this is probably the craziest idea any of you have heard in some time, and given that you're Corellian that's saying something, but I am not suggesting we become Dark Jedi. I am not suggesting we abandon the Jedi Code. I am not suggesting turn against the Jedi Order. What I am suggesting is turning away from it, forging our own path so that the Republic might be saved. I have seen many possible futures for the Galaxy. Dozens, even hundreds, of "what-if's". None of them were pretty. None of them saw the survival of the Jedi Order, not in it's current state. The Order needs to change if it is to survive, but I don't think that the Council can be made to realise that in time. So we need to create the change, if we wont then who will?"
"How do we know you're telling us the truth?"
"How do you know I'm not? Listen to the Force when I speak and you will hear the truth in my words. If the Jedi don't change, they will die."
"I believe you."
It was simple statement, said in a quiet yet confident voice as the young Padawan made her way towards the front of the crowd. "I don't know how much use I can be, but I'll do what I can."
"NO! Tahlia you cannot turn your back on the Order like this."
"You can't stop her Elise, this is her choice." Nejaa stepped forward again as he spoke, his tone calm and controlled. "If it is Tahlia's decision to join us then you cannot stop her."
"Really Nejaa, 'Join us,' you said. Are you seriously believing the words of this Sith?"
"He's no Sith, Master," Tahlia cut in. "Reach out, you can feel the Force in him and it definately isn't dark."
"It isn't light either. He is no Jedi"
"That doesn't make me a Sith, Master Jedi. I follow neither the light nor the dark. I do not do what is 'right', or what is 'wrong'. I do what is necessary."
"And how do you decide what is necessary? Pick things on a whim?"
"I follow the Force's guidance. And so should you. If the Force guides you away from this rebellion then so be it. Far be it from me to question the Force in this." I turned away from Tahlia's master and addressed the rest of the Jedi, "that goes for all of you. Don't go with what others do, or what your think you should do. Reach into the Force and
feel
the right path for you. You've heard my words, and you've heard those of Master Elise. I'm not asking you to decide now, but the sooner you make your choice, the sooner we can act."
I took one last look around at the assembled Jedi, smiled at Tahlia when she glanced up at me, then headed for the exit. The Jedi would make their decision, I could only hope they would help me.

Such a sweet little boy,
so innocent,
Who would of guessed he'd grow into...
A bloody cry baby,
And a wife basher.
