| Luke and Mara were laying in bed when Luke felt a disturbance in the Force. "Do you feel that?" He asked. "No." Mara replied. "I'll be right back." Luke got out of bed and put his Jedi robe on. As he walked out of the door he clipped his lightsaber to his belt. Luke felt the same thing back at his room as he walked down the hall. What was that? He thought. He walked outside and he could hear the distinct sound of lightsabers clashing together. Luke ran to where he thought he heard the sound. He looked down every alleyway and side road till he saw two figures fighting with lightsabers. One with a dark blue blade and the other with a yellow blade as bright as the sun. Callista. He thought. Luke ran as fast as he could till he could run no more. Just as he got close enough to identify that it was Callista fighting with a cloaked figure. The cloaked figure plunged their lightsaber into the chest of Callista. "NO!" Luke screamed. Igniting his saber. Later that evening Chera was sitting down wondering what she could do when Sydnee walked up to her, "I'll see you later, I'm going for a walk." Sydnee said "OK, see you later." Chera answered, "By the way I think I saw Jerik sitting on a bench outside" She couldn't resist adding that little tid-bit. "Oh will you get off of that" Sydnee exclaimed blushing "I don't need a new relationship right now." "Okay..." Chera began, "but he really does like you alot." "He does?" Sydnee said sounding slightly more willing to get into a new relationship then she had been just five minutes ago "Oh yeah, couldn't you see the way he watched you all during supper?" Chera said to her now extremely interested friend "but I thought you didn't want to get into a new relationship?" "Of course I don't!" Sydnee said now suddenly embarrassed, upset, and maybe... something else. "I just was curious that's all" "OK," Chera said, "I'll see you when you get back."Assuming you don't just stay with Jerk and let me has my own room. She felt compelled to add, but she decided against it, seeing how Sydney and Jerik couldn't know what she saw in the future for them just yet. Cheer watched the other woman slip through the door and watched it close behind her. Chera took a deep breath, counted to three, and stood up. She walked to the door and peeked outside; she could just see the figure of Sydney standing next to a bench. Chers felt tempted to enhance her senses just enough to listen to what they were saying. But no, even they deserved their privacy, even if everyone else knew what was going on. Chera went and laid down on her bed. She was tired but instead of sleeping she focused on something, on the future she had seen for her two friends, it had popped up earlier after the cantina episode. She saw something evil, something dark blocking the way to their happiness, but then she saw past it, to a wedding, children maybe, and a love for each other she had never felt in two who were still unaware of it. That was why she hated dealing with smugglers and mercenaries, they never knew what they were feeling, they had this facade built up so high that even the smallest change in their sense and everyone who was force sensitive within a mile knew about it. But they didn't because they had it build up so high that they even fooled themselves. Jerik and Sydnee both had them, and both would loose them or else loose each other. Chera wanted to help them desperately, but this was something she knew they would have to face alone. She took a deep breath, and closed her eyes, and somewhere in there, she fell asleep. Sydnee had decided to go for a walk. Instead of taking the lobby door she wanted to take the side door. Sitting on a bench just outside the door was Jerik. Chera had told her about him. Like what his name was and where he was from. Sydnee walked over to Jerik and introduced herself. "Hi, my name is Sydnee." holding out her hand. Jerik took her hand. "My name is Jerik. It's nice to meet you Sydnee." he replied. "What brings you out here tonight?" Sydnee asked. "The stars, they are beautiful. Aren?t they?" "That they are. Mind if I sit down?" "No, please do." "So, I hear you are from Irdonia." "Not originally. See I was orphaned as a child. My parents died when I was young. So a friend of the family took me and raised me as one of their own. I was brought up on the planet of Bespin till I was 16, then I moved to Irdonia." "You don't know about your parents?" "Not really. My foster parents didn't tell me much about them at all. What about your parents?" "Well, my parents were Imperial dignitaries that worked under Palpataine. When I was conceived my mother went into hiding until I was born. Then they sent me to live with my brother, Whillis. He was a pilot with the Alliance. He died in the Battle of Hoth when the Imperials attacked the base." "How old were you?" "I was about 3 or 4. But when he died I was brought up by a couple that worked in the medical field with the Alliance. They traveled a lot. Jip and Milly were their names. When one left the other would stay with me on Yavin 4." "Wow. What a life, and I thought mine was cool." Sydnee laughed. There was something in the air that night because Sydnee fell in love with Jerik. With a snap hiss the green blade came to life. Luke ran at the cloaked figure, blade in hand. The figure stuck out its hand and Force pushed Luke. He stumbled and fell on the ground, giving the figure enough time to escape. Luke stood up and walked over to Callista's slain body. "Why dammit, why." Luke trailed He wiped the tears away from his eyes and picked up Callista's body. He walked what felt like a hundred miles to the edge of a wooded area and buried Callista's body. Kneeling at the foot of Callista's grave, Luke muttered "I'll be back for you." Sliding the key card in the slot to his room, Luke walked into the room with Mara pacing in the room. "Where have you been" Mara demanded. "And why are you all dirty and sweaty?" "Callista is dead." Luke mumbled. "What!?" Mara said as she embraced Luke. "That's what I felt. Them fighting." "How did she die?" "Her and another Jedi were fighting and the cloaked one put their saber into the chest of Callista." Luke started to cry. "I'm sorry Luke. Lets get you into the tub." |
