StarWars
"Nayr, what is wrong with you!" Mirr asked as they walked out of the bar. The Wookiee stopped.
"That Jedi, he’s following us!"
"What if it was just a coincidence!?"
"IT wasn’t."
"How do you know?"
"I don’t…but I do… just, arg! Come on."
"YOU! Wait!" Nayr and Mirr turned around as one of Jubas’ henchmen ran out of the Casino.
"Oooh, come on! Can this day get any worse!" Nayr yelled as she ran… straight into another henchmen. "Obviously it can…"
He raised his fist, and hit Nayr over the head with it.
Obi-Wan sauntered out of the Casino, only to see the strange girl and mirr, the Wookiee, surrounded by men. The girl was barely standing, she looked dizzy, and Mirr was roaring. All at once, the girl leapt onto the back of one of the men, and kicked two others as a third hit her hard in the back. She gasped and fell over onto her back.
Mirr punched two men, and tripped another.
"Hey!" Obi-Wan called, and ran forward, igniting his Lightsaber.
"Look, it’s Jedi."
"Run for it!"
The men scattered, leaving the girl on her side, breathing heavily, and the Wookiee hunched over, paws on her knees.
"What was that all about?" Obi-Wan asked as he neared them, placing his Lightsaber back on his belt.
"nothing." The girl said harshly, struggling to her feet. She took a deep breath, groaned, and toppled over into the Wookiee’s arm.
Obi-Wan shook his head.
"A bit foolish, isn’t she?"
"Yeah well, Nayr’s got spirit, I’ll give her that." Mirr muttered. Picking the girl up. Obi-Wan wondered over.
"She seems to have something against a lot of people."
"Nope, just the Jedi."
"The Jedi?"
"Uhhuh.."
"Why?"
"Long story."
"Oh."
"Hey, would you happen to know of any place I can take her? She’s really out of it this time. She normally manages to stay standing until the attackers come back."
"Yeah, sure.. Follow me." Obi-Wan took off at a slow pace towards the Temple, Mirr following, caring Nayr.
Nayr, Obi-Wan thought, why does that name sound fammillar?
"master?" Obi-Wan asked as he, mirr and Nayr entered the Temple. Obi-Wan knew he had heard the name Nayr before, and he also knew the healers here could help her.
They rounded a corner, and nearly walked into Master Qui-Gon and Master Yoda. They turned to look at them.
"Yes Obi-Wan?"
"Who is this?" Master Yoda asked, pointing to Mirr and Nayr.
"Uh, does it matter?"
Obi-Wan looked over at Mirr.
"This is Mirrewell and Nayr," Master Yoda’s ears lifted and Qui-Gon Jinn raised his eyebrows. "She’s in need of the healers, master."
"Hmm, all right. This way." Qui-Gon jinn lead the three towards the healers section of the temple.
Master Yoda shook his head, and muttered something under his breath with a ‘humph’, and turned into a separate room.
"Master, what have you decided to do about the Sith?" Obi-Wan asked eagerly as he followed his Master.
"Well, as far as Master Yoda can tell, the Sith here is the apprentice, we have not yet encountered the Master."
"That’s not good."
"No, it isn’t. Put her here." Qui-Gon Jinn said, pointing to a bed. "I shall go get the healers."
"yes Master." Obi-Wan said respectfully.
Mirr sat down.
"Obi-wan?"
Obi-Wan turned around to see Master Yoda.
"Yes Master Yoda?"
"I would like to speak with Mirrwell please."
Obi-Wan turned to look at Mirr, she grunted, and stood up, giving Obi-Wan a glance, and walked out to talk with Master Yoda.
Obi-Wan looked over at Nayr, he walked over, and sat on the floor beside her.
"Nayr", he mumbled. "Where have I heard that name?"
"She is Indoan-Adoy’s child." Obi-Wan turned around at the sound of Qui-Gon’s voice. "I knew the name as well."
"How has she managed to stay hidden all this time?"
"I do not know."
"If she is like her father, we could have made a great Jedi out of -"
"No!" Nayr said, sitting up quickly. "You won’t." She got out of the bed, and left the room, passing Mirr talking with a small green alien, Master Yoda, she remembered him.
As she passed, she gave Mirr a glance. Mirr and Yoda watched her descend the hallway. Mirr sighed, and left after her.
Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi walked up behind Master Yoda.
"What did she say?" Qui-Gon asked yoda.
"Much, very much. Come, tell you I shall." They turned and talked as they walked down the hallway.
The next day, Yoda was walking around the temple impatiently.
"Where is Centara…" He muttered.
"I am here Master Yoda, I was just visiting my home."
"Come Centara, much to tell you we have." Yoda turned and Centara followed.
"Mirr, I - I don’t know what it is. I just know something very, very bad is going to happen sooner or later."
Nayr muttered as she and Mirr walked down the street the next day.
"OH! I know, I’ll ask the senate if I can borrow a ship to fly to Tatoonie to ask a friend of mine what she thinks!"
Mirr sighed, she didn’t agree with this, she hardly ever agreed with Nayr’s plans, but she wasn’t in the mood to argue.
Nayr stormed down the hallway, furious. Slamming the door behind her. Turning down a hallway, her long braid of orange hair slipped from her cloak as she left the building. Looking around Coruscant didn't calm her nerves at all. Nayr slammed the door behind her as she walked into the city. Mirr approached her, and grunted waving her hands in the air.
"No Mir, I didn't. They said it was too dangerous a mission. Leave it to the Jedi he said, they'll take care of it he said. HA!" The Wookiee shook her head, and grunted something. Nayr nodded.
Mirr grunted something as they neared the place they were staying. Nayr nodded.
"I agree. But what else can we do? I still think something bad is about to happen, no matter what they say! 'Leave it to the Jedi'. Ha! I'll leave it to the Jedi..." Nayr kept mumbling as she and Mirr went to their room.
Mirr gave Nayr a strange look as the rebel tossed the old cloak onto the bed, and picked up her blaster. The Wookiee grunted a question as Nayr holstered her blaster.
"Yeah you missed something. I told you, something bad is about to happen." Nayr stormed out of the room leaving the Wookiee bewildered and confused.
Mirr caught up with Nayr as she stormed down the streets of Naboo.
"I'm telling you they have good reason to trust only in the Jedi! " The Wookiee mumbled. Nayr stopped suddenly, and looked up at her friend.
"Now your on their side hum? Figures! Everyone is with the Jedi! Well you know what, I'm not." Nayr pointed at the Wookiee, and stormed off.
"So what if they've treated you bad in the past. These new Jedi might be promising."
Nayr didn't even turn to look at her friend. Nayr and Mirr created quite a scene in the streets of Naboo. The Wookiee always at least five feet behind her friend would say something, then Nayr, letting her temper get the best of her, would shout at her friend, point, poke, scream, then take off at a fast pace again. Mirr frowned, and stopped. "You are starting to frighten me, Nayr. Never in the years we've been friends have you acted like this. What's wrong?" Nayr skidded to a halt.
"What's wrong? WHAT'S WRONG! I'll tell you what's wrong! I can't do anything to help this forsaken planet because of the JEDI! Everyone loves the Jedi! Well I DON'T! They retreat to simple hand waves and lighted swords. I could do twice the damage of five JEDI!" Nayr gave a scowl to a passing lady.
"Nayr, now you're talking non-sense. You know the Jedi are talented. They could-"
"I don't care what they could and couldn't do Mirr! I'm tired of it!" Nayr glared at the palace. "She's on their side isn't she, the queen I mean."
Mirr frowned, she couldn’t believe how Nayr was acting.
"Now you are really starting to scare me Nayr. Since when do you talk about the queen that way? What if she were to walk by and hear you? She could chop off your head! Please, just calm down." Nayr laughed.
"Calm down!? I'm perfectly calm my tall, furry friend. Just a little.. upset." Nayr frowned, and sighed. "Ah what the heck, I should just give up."
Nayr sat down on the sidewalk, Mirr looked around anxiously then sat down beside her friend.
"Nayr? Still feeling uneasy?" Mirr asked kindly.
"I'm telling you Mirr," Nayr said, running her hand over her braided and bunned up hair of orange. "Something bad is about to happen. Whether the Jedi think so or not." She folded her hands in her lap.
Mirr and Nayr stood back up, and Nayr changed direction, heading back towards the place they were staying.
"Where are you going now?" Mirr mumbled, catching up to her friend.
"Back to the place, I forgot a few things.." Mirr groaned, and followed her friend through the busy streets.
Centara left the Jedi temple exhausted, but satisfied. She had done well on the exercises Master Yoda had told her to do. She walked around Coruscant, hurrying to the abandoned building where she had lived in hiding ever since her siblings had turned to the Dark Side, and she’d lost her guardian. Centara was now in a cave that she knew nothing about, carrying only her lightsaber. Master Yoda had told her to enter. She heard a noise behind her and whirled around. She saw a dark form. Her first instinct was to ignite her lightsaber, but instead, in peace, she asked, "Who are you? What do you want?" The dark form remained quiet.
"Then I leave you in peace." Centara said, realizing that whoever/whatever it was did not want to fight. She left the cave. When she walked out, Master Yoda told her to remove her apprentice cloak. As she did so, she accepted a knight’s cloak in return. Her heart raced with excitement, she turned and bowed respectfully to Master Yoda.
In other part of the temple Nary Orian came out of her meditative trance and smiled serenely at the wonderful feeling of peace she felt. Carefully she stood up, and walked out of the chamber. Still in awe, she was aware of the others around her and the presence of so much emotion. She then felt something that finally did make her leave that feeling of calm-it was something sinister and dark-and dangerous. She turned around and went right back in the Temple, trying to calm herself. She hoped none of the Masters would be alerted to her distress.
"They must sense it." She thought.
Sith Apprentice Redav hid in the shadows outside the Jedi Temple. She hid well visually in her black cloak, but she was afraid that the Jedi would sense her presence, the ripples she caused in the Force. She had reasons for being there. Her master had told her to report on the number of Jedi Knights, Masters, and Apprentices that lived or visited there often.
Redav, hiding in the shadows again, jumped in surprise. A Jedi was leaving the temple. Redav could sense the person's identity, and new it was Ieram-Centara Anja. But what shocked her was the robe. Robes of that type, she knew, were only worn by knights, her sister was a Padawan. She would have to report that a new knight was promoted immediately.
Centara, sensing trouble, looked to her right. She saw a person disappearing in around a corner. When she looked no one was there. She went back into the temple to report the Sith to Master Yoda.
Centara walked into the temple, and began to search for Master Yoda.
She rounded a corner and saw Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi standing outside of the training room.
"Master Qui-Gon," Centara said, bowing her head politely, Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon returned the bow. "Have you seen Master Yoda?" Centara asked.
"yes, he is training a young Padawan." Qui-Gon said.
"He will not be finished for some time. Obi-Wan and I were just getting ready to leave. We have reports of a Sith around Naboo."
"Yes, that is what I had come to tell Master Yoda."
"You’ve seen the Sith?" Obi-Wan asked.
"Yes, this way." Centara lead the two outside, and began to explain what happened.
What is going to happen? Has Nayr lost her marbles? Is Redav planning murder?
