Poof has a love-hate relationship with the Saga. On the one hand, it’s where he has his shinning moments as a Jedi Knight on the Jedi Council. On the other hand, he dies during the Saga era, and that wasn’t much fun at all.

I know I am late with the new post, sorry guys... I have been out of my mind with the wedding stuff. I will try my hardest to get something up this weekend, though, I promise.

In the meantime, to tide you over, here is a tiny snippet of the upcoming post:


"I know this sounds crazy..." she said quietly.

Old eyes lifted to her face, full of wisdom that had not come without a price, and she trailed off under Yoda's gaze, not knowing what else to say.

What could she say, really?



Thanks for bearing with me guys!

Jedi Temple, Coruscant



Silence hung over the room.

It was an endless sort of silence, full of gravity and weight.

There was no rushing this kind of thing, it was a matter that required both delicacy in its delivery and a flexible period of time for it to be comprehended, and so she merely waited.

Slivers of light poked through the covered windows, slanting across the tiled floor.

The room was small and plain, the walls and floor both a neutral gray, adding to the sterile feel of the environment, and the dimness of the room gave off a cool, meditative impression. It brought to mind the barren bunkrooms of the old Imperial base on Nirauan, where they'd briefly taken shelter from the Yuuzhan Vong.

Mom would hate it, Jaina Solo thought with a touch of bittersweet amusement.

In truth, she wasn't too fond of it herself.

She had known coming into this situation that the Jedi Order of the Old Republic had been very different from the Order that she'd been raised in, but she'd still been startled by how dull and bland the rooms were. She'd been expecting something more, or at the very least different, from the living quarters of the Grand Master of the Jedi Order, she supposed.

But the aforementioned Grand Master didn't seem to notice that his room resembled a medical facility more than a home, so she kept that observation to herself.

At the moment, Jaina was purposefully avoiding looking at Yoda.

It hadn't been easy to have this conversation, to say the things that needed to be said, things that would strike the diminutive Jedi Master as surely as if she'd just stabbed him in the chest with her lightsaber, and she didn't want to see the pain in his expression as he came to terms with the terrible fate awaiting his Order.

Mostly, though, she didn't want him to see the guilt in her own eyes.

Because as bad as the news she'd given him was, there was more that she was keeping from him, most of it even worse.

In the final days before Danni's success on Ossus, Jaina had struggled with how much to reveal to the Jedi once she made it to the past. There was so much that could change everything, and she had no idea how much they needed to know, and who needed to know what, but she was certain that she could not come right out and just unload every bit of knowledge she had into their laps.

The results could have been catastrophic.

Instead, she was playing a game of dejarik with the fate of the galaxy.

Picking and choosing which pieces to move at what moment, trying to plan out her moves several steps in advance, all the while taking into consideration every possible outcome of situation after situation.

You're talking about gambling with the lives of billions of beings, Jaina.

Not that she'd needed Tahiri to tell her that.

Jaina had been all too aware, from the moment the idea was first proposed as nothing but a hypothetical theory, of just what kind of risks it would entail. What the cost might be to everything and everyone she'd ever known, both on a personal level and on a broader scope.

Husbands and wives might never meet.

Children might never exist.

Victories that had secured peace and justice for so many might unravel.

Every action that she took or didn't take could have serious consequences on the future, could drastically change reality as she knew it.

Why, I might even unmake my own existence, Jaina mused wryly.

She tried not to dwell on that possibility, tried not to think about all the people whose lives she was meddling with and how easily she could screw things up for so many people without even realizing it. So many of her friends might never cross her path now, that is if any of them managed to be born at all after she changed the direction of the galaxy.

Would Tenel Ka's parents ever meet?

Would her own?

It was difficult not to think about all the thousands of ways that things could go wrong, but Jaina had long since made up her mind to let go of that responsibility and entrust it to the Force.

There was no other way to keep her tentative grip on her sanity.

A soft giggle from the other side of the room drew her attention, and despite the heavy burden on her shoulders, Jaina smiled faintly at the sight of Ben seated on a small, cushioned ottoman and happily distracted from "adult things" by his levitation toy.

The collapsible structure was metallic and flexible, made to bend and twist in just about any direction a young child could think of, with a dozen rotating spheres attached to its appendages.

It had been a gift from Jacen, who'd built it for their little cousin while they were on the run from the Yuuzhan Vong.

The toy served a dual purpose, though, not only did it keep Ben occupied for a while, it also continued to hone his skills at the same time.

Little Jysella Horn, who had inherited her family's lack of talent for telekinesis, had loved to sit with Ben on the dirt floor of whatever ramshackle hideout they'd found that week and watch him move the toy through the air. She'd been especially fond of giving instructions on which piece to swing, which to bend, which to spin.

They'd been good friends, Ben and Jysella.

It had been difficult for Jaina to tell him that Jysella, like her mother Mirax and grandfather Booster, was gone after the destruction of the Errant Venture.

That same news had all but destroyed Corran and Valin.

My Mom is dead, Jaina... how can she be dead? And Jys... she was just a kid, just a baby...

So many mothers had lost their lives in the face of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, so many children's lives had been cut short, snuffed out like nothing more than a puff of smoke in the rain.

Where is the Force now? Why has it forsaken us?!

Near the end, the younger ones had begun to break, to lose their faith, and Jaina couldn't blame them. She'd had no words of comfort or consolation for young Sannah that day, as the girl stood before her covered in the blood of friends whose bodies they had been forced to leave behind. There had been no Jedi platitudes or wisdom that she could impart, for she had no answers to the questions haunting Sannah.

Not when they haunted Jaina, as well.

Forcing herself out of the past, lest its icy clutches sink claws into her flesh and take hold with a grip that she could not escape, Jaina focused her gaze on the diminutive being seated across from her.

"I know this sounds crazy..." she said quietly.

Old eyes lifted to her face, full of wisdom that had not come without a price, and she trailed off under Yoda's gaze, not knowing what else to say.

What could she say, really?

"Crazy, yes," the great Jedi Master murmured with a weak chuckle, but there was no amusement in his voice, only the distinctive cracking of a being who knew the horrible, inescapable truth. "But believe you, I do."

Jaina's shoulders sagged in relief.

Until that moment, she hadn't realized how desperate she was for him to understand. She didn't know what she would have done if he'd thought her words to lies, or worse still, the product of a deranged mind. What proof could she offer to him of the dark future she prophesied?

A blood test would confirm her identity, but little else.

"Dark is the future you herald," Yoda said lowly, voice thick and brittle. "Understand, I do not, how fail to foresee this we did..."

"The dark side clouds everything," Jaina offered, sympathy lending an uncharacteristic gentleness to her words.

After all, her own Order had failed just as greatly as its predecessor in the end.

"Yes," Yoda agreed, nodding his head somberly. "Long the dark side has been in the shadows at work. Always just out of sight lurking, seeking an impossible victory..."

"Not so impossible," Jaina pointed out evenly.

"No, so impossible not," Yoda murmured, his head bowing as if he could no longer hold it upright, too heavy was the weight that now rested upon his shoulders.

Now you know, Jaina thought grimly. Now you understand why I've come.

And what she had to do to prevent it.

She felt some measure of pity for the wizened old Jedi Master, regretted that she had to crush his spirit with news of what the future- the one that had given birth to the Sword of the Jedi, a sword forged in fire and stone- had in store for his beloved Order, but it would have been impossible to keep him in the dark.

If her plan was going to work, she needed Yoda in her corner.

And so she'd told him everything- almost everything, anyway- in grim detail.

That she was the granddaughter of Anakin Skywalker, from a future he would not have recognized. That his Order had been purged in the fires of the Sith and the Republic that he held dear burned by the Empire; that after over two decades, the Rebellion had toppled the Empire and built a New Republic once the Sith were destroyed; that the dark times had returned in the form of an alien race bent on conquering the galaxy and reshaping it in their own image.

An alien race that didn't exist within the Force.

The disbelief that had registered on the diminutive Jedi Master's face was one Jaina could relate to all too well. It had been hard for the Jedi in her own time to comprehend it, as well. How could the Yuuzhan Vong be alive and yet cut off from the Force, which was life itself?

Of course, now she knew the answer, but it was too late.

Zonoma Sekot, the best hope the galaxy had to restrain the Yuuzhan Vong, had been killed as much by the Alliance as by the Yuuzhan Vong.

Alpha Red had been the galaxy's damnation, just as Vergere had claimed it would be.

The mention of the Fosh Jedi Knight who had both manipulated, tortured and sustained her brother during his time as a Yuuzhan Vong captive had sparked recognition from Yoda, as Jaina had suspected it might. When Vergere surrendered herself to the Yuuzhan Vong in order to spare Zonoma Sekot, her disappearance must have left the Jedi Order baffled.

Now they knew what had become of their lost Jedi.

Jaina wasn't sure which she'd expected to be more difficult for Yoda to come to terms with- the Yuuzhan Vong threat, or the terrible fate awaiting his Order- but his ability to accept both convinced her that he could be trusted with the one secret she was prepared to protect and safeguard with every ounce of fierceness inside of her.

Too much rested on that knowledge to share it with just anyone.

"My grandfather was a good man," she pronounced softly, but with a tight firmness that made it clear she would have words with anyone who spoke otherwise. "A good man with good intentions. But, as my Aunt Mara was fond of saying, 'the road to hell is paved with good intentions'..." her throat tightened a little of its own accord, both at the mention of her aunt and mentor, and at the painful subject she was disclosing. "He fell into darkness and became a plague on the galaxy."

"A plague, yes," Yoda agreed darkly, but did not say more than that.

"But he came back," Jaina pointed out evenly. "The love of a son for his father, and a father for his son, was enough to pull him from those dark depths. And he fulfilled his destiny in the end, bringing balance to the Force and shattering the darkness with light."

"Undo his crimes, one sacrifice does not."

Jaina pursed her lips, biting back the sharp retort on the edge of her tongue.

Attacking the Jedi Master's opinion would only serve to further alienate him from her cause, if she was going to sway him over to her line of thinking, she needed to get him to sympathize with her, to understand where she was coming from.

She'd learned something from her mother's political disposition, at least.

"No," Jaina agreed. "It didn't. Nothing could have erased all the evil he'd done as a servant of the dark side. But in that same regard, not even all the evil he did could have erased all the good- and there was a lot of good, both at the beginning and end of his life."

Yoda did not respond, and she chose to take that as a good sign.

"I know this is difficult to accept," she said carefully. "You're in the midst of a war and here I arrive bearing news that your worst fears came to pass, that you were betrayed by one of your own, but Vader and Anakin are not the same man. The dark side... it devours you, it eats away at everything good and strong inside of you until there's nothing left but an empty husk for it to inhabit."

"Know of this intimately, you do," Yoda observed, his eyes narrowing.

Jaina met his knowing gaze head-on, without so much as blinking. "You have no idea how intimately," she responded in a neutral tone.

For a long moment, they regarded one another in silence, and Jaina wondered idly what the venerable old Jedi Master saw when he looked at her. Did he see the things she herself saw when she looked in the mirror? Did he see the scars, both those on the inside and on the out? Did he see the shadow in her heart, that only her will and trust in the Force kept buried?

"I know what he's going through," she said softly, with an inexplicable quiver to her voice that she dismissed as exhaustion from the trip through time. "I know what it's like to stand in his shoes. To feel the darkness stirring inside of you, to know it's ever just under the surface... and to be afraid of what might happen if you were to let it loose... or what might happen if you didn't."

And she did know, better than perhaps anyone.


"Don't go down this road, Jaina. You've been here before, you know what it will do to you. Nothing good can come from the shadows."

"Good? Who said anything about 'good', Kyp? Look around! The Yuuzhan Vong have won! Uncle Luke is dead, the Alliance is dead, the Jedi are dead, the whole stang galaxy is dead! I don't give a kriff about 'good' anymore. What I want is payback. I can't stop the Vong, I can't keep them from decimating the rest of the galaxy, but I can sure as hell make them pay for every inch of it with blood!"



There was something weary in Yoda's eyes now, something almost sad, and his ears drooped slightly.

"How expect to save him can you," the diminutive Master asked quietly, with something akin to pity in his voice. "When in need of saving yourself, you are?"

"I don't need to be saved," Jaina replied flatly. "I've faced the demon inside of myself and made peace with what I found. There's darkness in all of us, Master Yoda, even you... it's not about banishing that darkness or containing it, because that's just not possible, it's a part of the Force, of life itself. It's about finding something that overpowers it. Something good and pure and full of light."

She glanced again at Ben, who appeared to be playing innocently with his levitation toy, but she knew his sensitivity to the Force was picking up on the undercurrents in the room.

"My something is that little boy over there," she murmured. "And Anakin's something is going to be his family."

"By your own words, enough to keep him from the dark side they were not," Yoda said shrewdly.

"That was then, this is now," Jaina replied without hesitation. "And things are going to happen differently, I'm going to make them happen differently. My mere presence in this time could affect events more than I can begin to imagine."

"Arrogance, it is, to assume so much."

"Not arrogance, Master Yoda," Jaina assured him. "Reality. Every breath I draw here could change something in the future, and there could be disastrous results... why do you think I haven't told you the identity of the Sith Lord who's pulling all the strings? We both know that I have the answers you seek."

At the mention of what she was withholding, Yoda's eyes darkened.

"The deaths of many Jedi this knowledge could prevent," he spoke lowly. "End this war, it could."

"It won't end the war," Jaina replied, but did not deny she was condemning many a Jedi on the front lines to the fate that the Force had dealt them the last time around.

For the greater good, sacrifices would have to be made.

"If anything," she said. "It will only heighten it." Sensing that Yoda was about to argue, so she cut him off. "What do you think would happen if the Sith Lord discovered the Jedi Order was onto him?" she inquired. "He wouldn't flee, he would wage an all-out war on these halls- open war, not this covert bantha fodder you're dealing with now."

"Prepared to meet this threat, we are."

Jaina snorted, unable to contain her mirth. "Like sith you are."

The idea was laughable, really, in a bitter and ironic sort of way. Maybe the Jedi's confidence about their ability to handle the Sith wasn't so much arrogance as it was naivety- they had no idea their greatest enemy was already seated on his throne, biding his time before seizing the crown.

Only one man had a chance of stopping him, and Jaina's job was to ensure he did just that.

"This Sith Lord knows his enemies, he knows your weaknesses and your strengths, and how to play them both accordingly," Jaina explained bluntly, putting the full-weight of the Force behind her words to make Yoda feel the grim truth of them. "He won't underestimate you, so don't be foolish enough to underestimate him. He's had decades to plan for this, to prepare for every possible course of events."

Pausing for a moment to let that sink in, Jaina then arched one eyebrow pointedly.

"Don't you think that it would be wise for the Jedi to at least take a few months to prepare themselves?" she asked, unable to keep a slight twinge of sarcasm from creeping into her voice.

"Concerned with preparing the Jedi, you are not," Yoda responded after a few seconds of silence, and once again his eyes seemed to bore right through her. "Came here for young Skywalker, you did."

"You're right," Jaina admitted without remorse. "I did come here for Anakin, and he is my first priority. Everything else, including the preservation of your Order, is a secondary concern. The Jedi have served the Force for twenty-five thousand years, Master Yoda, but the galaxy has changed around you, and you haven't adapted at all. That's why you were so easy to pick off last time, and that's why the Yuuzhan Vong will plow right through your ranks when they come- that is, if your Order is still around... my grandfather will have to decide that."

Once, she might have gentled her words, if only out of respect for the diminutive Jedi Master, but the gentleness had long since been driven out of Jaina by the war.

She had a job to do, and she'd do it by any means necessary.

"So certain you are, hmm, that save him you can?" Yoda murmured, and though his words were spoken softly, they were clearly meant as the sharp rebuke she took them as. "When fail others did before you?"

"I know there's darkness in him," Jaina said evenly. "I know that you've seen it, that you've felt it, that you've worried over it since the day he first set foot in this Temple. But Vader doesn't exist here yet, and he's not going to. Last time, Anakin was vulnerable to the Sith's machinations. Even surrounded by those who loved him best of all, he was essentially left to face them alone."

Though you stand tall and alone...

Pushing aside the ghostly whisper of the words that had branded her as surely as a lightsaber burn, Jaina pursed her lips in quiet determination. "This time I'm going to make sure that all those weapons the Sith turned against him are neutralized before it ever comes to that."

Yoda gave her a curious look, prodding for an explanation, and she paused for a moment, trying to figure out how to best word what she was saying.

"Secrets breed like poison," she said at last. "They hook themselves deep in the core of you and slowly twist your insides, deeper and deeper, until it feels like you're choking in them." Her jaw clenched and her eyes narrowed, pulling the scarred skin at the corner of her right eye taught. "I'm going to bring those secrets to light, drag everything that needed to be said a lifetime ago to the surface before it's too late. I don't care what it takes, I am not going to let his soul go without a fight. I can save him, I can keep him from falling, I know it. But I have to do it my way, on my terms, or we could lose him just as surely as you did the first time around."

The diminutive Jedi Master studied her intently for a long moment, little hands folded in thought.

"Believe in him, you do," Yoda observed at last.

"I don't have a choice in the matter," Jaina replied evenly. "We need him. And I'm not just talking about my family or the Jedi Order or even the Republic. When the Yuuzhan Vong come, and they will come, Anakin may very well be our only hope."

"Perhaps yes, perhaps no," Yoda said, nodding his head absently. "In time, revealed it will be."

"In time, all things are."

For the first time, Yoda smiled, though she could not have said why. "Tired, you must be," the Jedi Master suggested, grunting as he hobbled to his feet, and Jaina followed suit, rising in one fluid motion. "Find empty quarters for you, we must, food to fill your stomachs. Later, the Council I will convene, and talk more of these things we will."

"But not of Vader," Jaina reminded him of their agreement.

Yoda nodded, reaching for his gimmer stick. "Yes, yes. Of Skywalker's fate, no council will I keep. Between the two of us, this knowledge will remain."

"And one more thing," Jaina said flatly. "My identity."

"Wish to conceal it, you do?" Yoda inquired with a frown, clearly disapproving.

"No one else can know who I am," Jaina insisted, leaving no room for argument. "Not the Council, not Obi-Wan Kenobi, and especially not my grandfather. Tell them I'm the only survivor of the future Order, tell them I drew the short straw among the refugees and got elected to come, I don't care. But Anakin is not, under any circumstances, to know I'm his granddaughter."

Yoda stared at her pensively. "Uncover the truth, he will in time," the diminutive Jedi Master warned.

"Maybe," Jaina conceded, and promptly ignored the small twinge in her chest at the thought. "But he'll have to figure it out on his own. There's too much on the line, too much at stake, to risk revealing things he doesn't need to know. I have enough future complications to worry about as it is. Who knows what trouble my identity could cause?"

Sighing, Yoda shook his head. "Disagree with you, I do, but respect your decision I will."

"Thank you," Jaina whispered.

"Now," Yoda said with a hoarse little chuckle, turning his attention to Ben and hobbling toward her cousin. "Come, younglings, hungry I am."

"Me, too," Ben declared, his levitation toy now forgotten.

"Then eat we must, hmm?" Yoda surmised, and gave Jaina an impatient look, tapping his gimmer stick on the floor to make a point and eliciting giggles from Ben.

Rolling her eyes, Jaina followed them out of the room.

She had a feeling that this was going to be a very long day.

Yay, you udated! grin

And that post was well worth the wait! Poor Jaina, poor Yoda... loved how Jaina is playing the game, she's the one in control and she let Yoda know it w/o going too far. So Yoda alone knows the full story about Anakin/Vader, only Jaina knows about Palpatine, and now she's going to keep her identity a secret? Wow, this is going to make things complicated, I imagine!

Yoda can get so annoying at times, can't he? Just because he's nine hundred years old doesn't make him all knowing. And his pessimism can get quite annoying.

AngelofDarkness great job in capturing Yoda. It's brillent.
