The Sith Rising Again( JA FanFic)

I liked it, I liked it. I was gone for a while and thrilled there were so many posts to catch up on!!! Kind of funny how Mace assumed it was Obi-Wan that needed the healers!

Hope we get more soon!

 

Ok everybody I've got major writers block. I would appreciate some more ideas as to where you want me to go from here. I don't care how stupid the ideas sound.

 

Gosh, this gets off the first page fast. Come on people I can't write anymore if I don't have any ideas.

 

DOESN'T ANYBODY CARE!!!

 

I care I care! I just have no talent for writing these things, nor do I have any good ideas for you.... Sorry! I am sure given time you will think of something great!

 

I care too! It's just that I don't have ideas to contribute right now.

 

Just a notice to everyone. I'll be posting soon. NOt like a week from now, more like today, as in a hour or so. Thanks for being patient and thanks to Talyn for giving me some ideas.

 

Good news Ibis!

 

Sorry I know it's been more than an hour. I got side tracked. Here's another post.

***********************

Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan waited outside the healer?s room in the temple, only this time they had the company of Mace Windu and Master Yoda. The two council members hadn't asked any questions yet but it was obvious they would have to explain later. The head healer, Jasd, entered the room.

?She is going to make a full recovery, but it will take a while. I don?t expect her to even regain consciousness for a few days and it will be at least a week before she can get out of bed. You got her here in the nick of time, any longer and she might not have made it.? he said.

?How long will it take for her to recover completely?? Qui-Gon asked.

?I said she would recover, however it could take up to a month before all of her injuries are completely healed.?

?What kind of injuries has this girl sustained?? Mace asked glancing at Qui-Gon.

?Now that?s an interesting question.? Jasd said. ?There is evidence of internal bleeding, but that has already almost completely healed. There are also many bruises that she sustained, I?d say a week ago maybe more. The bruises coincide with the internal bleeding and three cracked ribs, indicating she received them at the same time. In my opinion this girl was beaten, badly.?

?We?re aware.? Obi-Wan said grimly, remembering what Raya had looked like after Lord Sidious found him in her room.

?Really.? Jasd said lifting an eyebrow. ?Any way those injuries aren?t the ones that have put her in this condition. The ones that have are much more... interesting.?

?Tell us of these injuries you will.? Master Yoda said.

?She has a lightsaber burn in her side. It went through her bottom rib, not to mention several inches of muscle. She?s lucky it missed her vital organs. Now to my knowledge, Qui-Gon, you and your apprentice were the only ones on the planet that had lightsabers in their possession, so how did this girl get wounded by one? She?s incredibly young, I?d say fifth teen.?

?Her name is Raya, and she?s sixteen, not fifth teen.? Obi-Wan corrected.

?Alright, sixteen. That doesn?t explain why she has a gash burned into her side.? the healer said.

?It is your job to heal her injuries, not find out how she got them. I will explain that to the Council.? Qui-Gon Said sternly.

?Know she is alright you do. Tell the Council exactly what happened right now you can. Go to the Council chambers we should.? Master Yoda said. With that the four left, Qui-Gon trying to ignore the smirk on Jasd?s face.

Did you like it?

 

Hi everybody I'm starting school on Tuesday. Finally I'm not a freshmen anymore! I'm going to be really busy but I'll try to keep posting regularly. Like every other day and I'll probably post more of the story today. Bye!

 

No feedback? Isn't anybody interested anymore?

 

All I want is just feedback from one person. Is that so much to ask?

 

Feedback? Nah. Encouragement? Yes!!! Yes!!! Please continue the story. I know you can write intriguing characters and Obi-pain. I want to know if Obi and Raya become best buddies, teach each other's fighting moves, and yes, even fall in love!! Will this be a tragedy or a happily-ever-after AU?

Please post the rest of the story. Pretty please??

 

Thanks for the encouragement I can't write everyday because of my stupid teachers so here's a longer post to keep you going.

*******************

Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his apprentice Obi-Wan stood in front of the council. ?Like to know what happened on your mission and why you brought the girl back with you, we do.? Master Yoda said.

?The first night we arrived we were attacked by a mysterious figure who fought with a lightsaber. The attacker escaped after wounding Obi-Wan?s arm. Obi-Wan was put on bed rest for the next three days. The next night the attacker sent Obi-Wan a letter to meet me in the gardens. Not knowing that I hadn?t written the letter he went out to the gardens and after a brief fight was captured by the attacker and held hostage. The attacker, which I believe was a Sith tried to use Obi-Wan to maneuver me into a trap. I refused to go along and with the monarch?s help tried to find Obi-Wan. A few days later Obi-Wan returned to the palace with the girl I brought back. He could barely walk and needed Raya?s support. After speaking with Obi-Wan I discovered this girl had saved him and helped him get back to the palace. The monarch gave Raya a place to stay in the palace so he could have time to think of a proper reward for her bravery. A few nights later we all took a walk in the gardens and were attacked yet again by a Sith. I was trapped, leaving Obi-Wan to fight the Sith alone. It knocked the lightsaber from his hand and prepared for a death blow, but Raya distracted him and freed me. Unfortunately the Sith attacked her before one of us could get to her. Then he ran off and we brought Raya back here.? Qui-Gon finished. There was a silence as the Masters considered what they had just been told. Qui-Gon glanced at Obi-Wan, he was the only other person in the room who knew that while Qui-Gon spoke no untruth he did leave out certain parts.

?Why did you not leave this Raya on Mejdul?? Mace Windu asked.

?The healers there did not have the resources to heal her, she would have died. I thought that since she saved our lives she should have a chance to survive.? Qui-Gon answered.

?How did this mere girl rescue your apprentice from a Sith?? Ki-Adi-Mundi asked.

?I never asked her. Obi-Wan was not well at the time, he may not remember.? It wasn?t a lie and Obi-Wan hadn?t yet told him exactly what had happened. The Masters nodded in acceptance, they wouldn?t know until Raya got better, or so they thought.

?More to tell us you have, I sense.? Master Yoda prompted knowing there was more Qui-Gon intended to say.

Qui-Gon waited a moment to collect his thoughts. ?I learned some useful information about this Sith. It isn?t much but it might give us new insight. Apparently the Sith Master has a residence here on Coruscant.? There was a quiet gasp though the room. ?He has a high political position in the government and he has recently lost his apprentice.? There was a long silence in the room, it was a lot to take in all at once.

?This information, where did you get it?? Mace Windu asked. Suddenly all attention was on the Master.

?A reliable source. It was from a person who had nothing to gain if they lied and all the reason to speak the truth.?

?Trust this person you do?? Master Yoda asked.

?Yes.? Qui-Gon answered.

?Yet this person you give no name to.? Yoda responded.

?You would not benefit from knowing the name.?

?On the contrary. If we knew the name of this person we could then find them and question them as to how they got this information.? Ki-Adi-Mundi said.

?I am sorry,? Qui-Gon said, ?I can not tell you. I would loose the trust of this person.? It was obvious the council was not pleased with his decision, but they could do little about it.

?May the Force be with you.? Yoda said, ending the meeting and Obi-Wan followed Qui-Gon as they left. When they were gone Mace leaned back in his chair.

?He didn?t tell us who the person he gained the information from for a reason.? he said.

?Agree I do. Hiding something he is? Master Yoda agreed, but none in the room

 

Hey! keep going. I won't quit reading, although I won't post as often as I used to because of school and everything, you know, But keep going, this is a really great story.

 

More please!! I am really enjoying this!!

 

It's been awhile I'm sorry. Never take A.P. Europeon History when you're in tenth grade. You'll never have the chance of having a life out side of school.

*********************

Raya?s eyes slowly opened. She was in a white room she didn?t recognize. She started to sit up but a jot of pain in her side made her quickly lay back down. She felt terrible. She didn?t even know it was possible to fell so bad at one time. Her whole body felt like it had been jolted with an electrojabber. She looked to her left and saw an IV in her arm. She didn?t like things being injected into her without her permission. She looked down and saw white bandages through a hole in her tunic. Where am I? she wondered. She remembered blacking out after being hit with the lightsaber, but everything after that was fuzzy. She heard a door open and saw someone come in. She propped herself up on her elbows to look at the young girl who had walked in. The girl stopped upon seeing Raya awake and stared back at her, surprise written on her face. Then the girl rushed out of the room, leaving the door open in her haste. That was weird, Raya thought. A few minutes later, what Raya thought must be a healer walked in, escorted by the young girl.

?You were right Leena. I?m sorry I doubted you. You can go now.? he said to the girl who immediately left the room. The healer turned back to Raya. ?You must forgive her for her reaction, we weren?t expecting you to awake for at least another three days. My name is Jasd, I am the head healer here.? Raya stared at him for a moment, not sure of what to make of him. ?You?re Raya, if I?m not mistaken.?

?How do you now my name and what am I doing here?? she asked.

?Well you?re here because you nearly died and frankly in your condition I don?t see how you could even be conscious, not unless you were a Jedi, which judging by the way you?re dressed you?re not. And as for how I know your name, Obi-Wan told me.?

Raya visibly relaxed. If Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon brought her here than it must be a safe place. ?Where is here??

?The Jedi Temple of course.? At those words the relaxation Raya just felt evaporated. The Jedi Temple! She couldn?t be here. If they found out what she was... Raya?s fear was quickly building.

?Where?s Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon?? she asked barely able to keep the fear out of her voice.

?Speaking with the Council. They will most likely be back with in an hour. For now though you should probably change into a hospital gown and since you probably can?t do it yourself I?ll send a female healer in to help you.?

She felt another jolt of fear run through her. She had a dagger hidden in her boot and another strapped to her forearm. She almost always relied on her lightsaber, they were only there for emergencies. But if the healers were to find them which they almost certainly would she would have a lot to explain. ?Do I have to?? she asked.

?Yes you have to.? Jasd said. ?It?s healers policy.? Some how she doubted that. She also knew that he was most likely force sensitive so she couldn?t just use a mind trick.

?I?m very modest.? she said putting on her sweetest most innocent face. ?I don?t really have to change, do I?? with the last part she used the force to lightly brush his mind, so lightly that he didn?t notice. She silently prayed it would work.

Jasd looked undecided for a moment. ?No, I guess I could bend the rules this once, but if you make a fuss over anything else forget it.?

Raya relaxed slightly. She had avoided one obstacle but she was still in the Jedi Temple, that was bad enough. Another healer poked his head in the door. ?Master Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi are here.? he said.

Jasd looked annoyed. ?You think they spent enough time here already now one of them isn?t hurt and they still come back. Very well, let them come in.? A few seconds later the two appeared.

?You?re awake.? Obi-Wan said, surprised. Qui-Gon too looked startled. Raya was relieved to see them.

?Surprising isn?t it.? Jasd said. ?I?ve only seen Jedi who can put themselves into a healing trance awa

 

Great!!! More.

 

Like your story just read the whole thing today.

 

Listen everybody, I'm having a real bad day so this post might not be too good. If you don't like it just say so and I'll re do it.

***********************

The next few days Raya stayed at the healers. Qui-Gon had kept his word, one of them had always stayed. She was feeling much better now that she was receiving the proper treatment, better than a normal person should. She?d been putting all her energy into two things, healing herself and learning more about her new friend, Obi-Wan. She found herself telling him things she never thought she could say to anyone or even admit to herself. Talking to him made her feel at ease even though she was in the Jedi Temple. Obi-Wan was feeling the same towards Raya. He enjoyed the time they spent talking. He was drawn to her even though he wasn?t exactly sure why. She was beautiful, he couldn?t deny that, but he doubted that was the reason he liked her so much.

Qui-Gon arrived to take Obi-Wan?s place to allow him some training time when Master Yoda walked in, nearly bumping in to Obi-Wan. ?Excuse me, Master Yoda.? Obi-Wan said slightly embarrassed.

?Alright, it is.? Master Yoda replied. ?Qui-Gon, go you may.?

?Forgive me Master Yoda but I told Raya someone would always stay with her. She isn?t comfortable here.? Qui-Gon said.

?Go you will. With her I shall stay. Keep her company I will. Questions for her I have.? Raya visibly stiffened at this. She didn?t want to be alone with the oldest Jedi in the order.

?Master Yoda, Jasd has said that she shouldn?t be doing anything strenuous or anything that might upset her.? Qui-Gon tried again.

Jasd stuck his head inside the door. ?Please Qui-Gon, she and Obi-Wan talk for hours at a time while he?s here, a few questions aren?t going to hurt her. Besides she?s doing better than she should be. I saw her walk over to the window earlier to point out a building to Obi-Wan.? Qui-Gon gave Jasd a lethal look. ?Wow, if looks could kill I?d be rotting in the ground by now.? he said as he walked away.

?Go now you will Qui-Gon.? Master Yoda said. Obi-Wan gave a concerned glance at his Master, but they both left. Raya was not happy and she got even more nervous as Yoda pulled up a chair to the side of her bed. ?Lay back you should.? Master Yoda said in a gentle voice. ?Hurt you I will not.? Raya did as she was told. ?Ask you many questions I will not.? Raya relaxed some what she wouldn?t have to make anything up on short notice. ?See your memories of the events on Mejdul I will.? Suddenly all of her fears came back. As Master Yoda touched his hand to her forehead she put her mind shields up with all her strength. She felt him draw back surprised. ?Strong in the force you are. Few can block their minds as well as you do without training.? Inwardly Raya was beginning to panic.

?Let down your guards you should. Wish to help you we do.? he said. Raya started to believe him, his voice calmed her and made her loosen her mind shields slightly. She knew what he was doing, he was using the force to persuade her to put down her mind shields. She fought back against it and again she saw his surprise. Her strength in the force was to strong for someone so young that had no training. Raya may have been healing but she wasn?t completely better, her mind shield wavered for a moment and allowed Master Yoda to see her mind, but only for an instant. He immediately backed off and Raya felt relief wash over her. ?Tell Qui-Gon he may return, I will. See you later I shall.? he said as he left.
--------------------------------

Master Yoda walked back to his quarters deep in thought. He had seen her mind for just an instant but it was enough and he didn?t like what he saw. The girl?s mind was a vortex of misery, guilt, and fear. She hid her emotions well, but he had a feeling Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan knew how she felt. There was darkness in her but also some light. Her fear was centered around a person, most likely the Sith who had attacked her. But he was far away, why should he still frighten her... The realization hit him, Qui-Gon had said the Si

 

I like it...I really do. Please don't redo it, it's great the way it is! Please keep going!

 

Heehee, do I detect a fledging romance in the works?

 

I know, I know it was longer than two days I'm sorry. School work is getting in the way. I'll try to be better.

******************************

Obi-Wan was with Raya. They had been talking about lightsaber moves. Obi-Wan made a quick glance at the door to make sure no one was around before he asked his next question. ?Where did you get your lightsaber??

?I make it, just like you. Can I have it back??

?Sure.? he said handing it to her. ?What?s it made of??

?Metal and wire. The outside is a casing made of onyx.? She answered.

?You carve it??

?Yes.?

?How? It?s so intricate, I never seen anything so detailed.? he marveled.

?I just started carving and that?s what resulted.?

?What kind of animal is it?? he asked.

?It?s called a dragon. They?re spoken of in old legends that originated before the republic existed. They came in lots of colors, but the black dragon was said to be the most cunning.?

?Do you know any of the legends??

?I know one or two. Would you like to hear one??

?Sure.?

Raya closed her eyes for a moment, thinking of a legend. ?There was a black dragon. She was young as dragons go and while she was stronger than most her age she wasn?t the strongest. She was evil and worked hard at it. She torched towns and killed many people. No one dared challenge her. She was feared by all who crossed her path. But one day a young human challenged her. He drew a sword and told her he wouldn?t let her hurt anymore people. She laughed at his challenge and with a swish of her tail disarmed him, but he didn?t run away. He kept fighting even though he was unarmed. Eventually he was hurt to badly to continue. The dragon then carried him off to her lair to eat him. When they got to the cave where the dragon lived she dropped him and opened her mouth to gobble him up. But he didn?t scream or beg for mercy, he just stood the and awaited his death bravely. This touched her in a way she couldn?t describe so she sparred him for the moment. That moment became days and weeks. All the while she was caring for his injuries until finally he was well again.

?The man as well was beginning to like the dragon and when she finally offered him freedom he refused to go. He wanted to protect the dragon from other humans like him because he believed that the dragon wasn?t really evil. Finally after some persuasion the dragon convinced him to leave, but he swore to return.?

?Well what happened?? Obi-Wan asked very much interested.

?There are two endings to this legend. In one the young man returned with a magic potion, which the dragon drank. The dragon then was transformed into a human girl the same age as the young man. They married and lived happily ever after. In the other the dragon was visited by another dragon who told her the man had tricked her and was on his way back with an army. The black dragon then flew to where the man was and killed him in a rage for his betrayal. Then she found out he really wasn?t bringing an army to kill her and she jumped off a cliff onto sharp rocks a thousand feet below to end her pain over killing the only person she ever loved.?

?I think I like the first ending better.? Obi-Wan said.

?Me too.?

It would be nice to know which end you all like.
