XD I hope they do to. It would scar him.

Hey, btw, do you ever get emails when someone posts or anything? Because I haven't gotten any emails from anything what so ever.

Star Wars: A New Force

@Renny Can you blame him? He's got a pretty messed up family. Can you imagine his reaction when someone tells him his mom kissed Uncle Luke? XD

@Renny

Odette frowned lightly as Ben began going on about how he barely knew anything about his grandfather and how he stated he didn't care about what his own grandfather had done in comparison of how her grandfather's history was worth diving into so to speak. She watched him as he stood up and opened her mouth to speak but didn't get the chance because R2-D2 beeped chiding at Ben. She could feel the tension in the room. She was not as keen as Master Luke was, but was still rather in tuned with the Force, and for some reason, very much so when it came to Ben.

She could feel his anger or sadness whenever it was getting to be too much. She hated it when he felt that way and whenever she did feel it, she would normally try to make an attempt in cheering him up if Master Luke wasn't around. But for the most part, whenever Master Luke was there, Ben's anger always seemed to go away and she wasn't sure if that was because Luke calmed him or if it was because the emotions were being hidden. Either way, she felt as though there was something there that neither of them would tell her during these time. But, she never pushed and never persisted. As long as everything was going okay and no one was getting hurt she was fine to leave people to their private emotions and feelings.

"What? Why do I have to do everything when it comes to the padawans?" She huffed in annoyance, crossing her arms, "I may be the only girl in this forsaken Order, but I'm no babysitter." Yet, she sighed in defeat, knowing she was more likely to watch after the others than Ben was anyway, "Fine." She said in exasperation as she walked into the next room where the other padawans were and stood up straight, speaking calmly to the other seven, three of which that were running around, two that were still looking out the window, and another two that were playing a game with a ball by throwing it back and forth using only the force to throw and 'catch' it at high speeds,

"Alright everyone." When she spoke, the ball the two had been shooting back and forth whipped past one of them and she caught it in her hand with fast reflexes and ease, tossing it back to the boy, who sheepishly looked at her as she spoke to him, "Remember what Master says about using the force to move objects. Focus and block out all distractions."

"I'm trying." The boy said with just the hint of a whine in his voice, making Odette grin,

"Do or do not--"

"There is no try." All the padawans seemed to say at the same time with grins on their faces. That saying was spoken many times by their Master, apparently words from the great and wise Master Yoda when Luke had trained with him. Those words were engraved into their brains and had somewhat become a joke between everyone after hearing it for so long. Odette wished she could have met the Masters of old. They had bee so full of wisdom and ways of the Force. Not that Master Luke was a bad Master, but it woudl have been nice to learn from others as well. More Jedi Masters meant more knowledge and more ways of learning the Force.

"Master Luke wants you all to prepare for landing. Sometimes landings are not very smooth, so I need you all to have a seat." Once they were all seated she nodded in approval, "Once we are all down on Corascant there is something you must remember. Corascant has been abandoned for may years and so some of the areas and buildings might not be stable. It is best to stay to areas the Master allows you to visit and to never go off without someone going with you and without either Master Luke, Ben, or myself knowing where you are going to approve. Master Luke will be letting us know what we can do first once we land."

With that, she nodded to them and moved back into the commons area to sit down once again. By now she felt the ship preparing to land and once it had smiled brightly, standing up, walking outside with Ben where they stood just outside of the temple with the other seven padawans, in front of Master Luke, who smiled at the nine of them, "I know you all are very excited to explore this Temple. And we will be exploring it soon, but there are some rules I must lay done before we head in. You all must travel with a partner for safety and stay with your partner at all times. Once camp is set up, I will give you all four hours to have an initial look around, but make sure you are back in those four hours, or else I will come looking for you. We will explore it more in depth tomorrow as well. I want you all to be on your best behavior and to not get into any trouble." It was clear all of the padawans were bubbling with excitement to check this place out. And so, they went straight to work with helping Ben and Odette setting up camp. With everyone's help it didn't take long to get it set up and the padawans of course the moment it was done went on to ask Luke if they could go explore now. After a pause he sighed and nodded with smile, "Well, go on then." With that, all the padawans were rushing off with their partners (and one group of three), Luke calling out to them to remember that they needed to be back at the ship in two hours before he himself headed off.

Odette smiled when Luke gave them the okay and soon had grabbed the sleeve of Ben's robe, laughing as she half dragged him into the halls of the temple, a huge smile on her face as he let him go and looked around, "Look at this place! To think, we're in the place that all the Jedi once trained and learned! It's even more amazing than I thought!"

Even though she and Serix seemed to just want to get out of here and back to their room to get some peace and quiet, away from any humans that might want to cause trouble, it seemed the other half bloods didn't have that in mind. Soon, they had both been stopped by Emily and Conner, and though she knew these two were not so much likely to cause trouble with them, Cassie still would have liked for she and Serix to be left alone for now. Especially Serix. Yet, what Emily said was quick and Cassie said a quiet 'bye' to she and Conner before walking back down the tunnel and toward their cavern.

Once there, she nodded and sat back on the bed, lightly squeezing his hand with a soft sigh, "I'm glad to say it wasn't as bad as I expected either. I was worried one of them might try to jump you with the looks some of them were giving us." She leaned up, softly kissing his lips before letting out a small sigh, "We just...need to be very careful from here on out. Keep to ourselves for now and interact with people we know for sure we can trust." Of course, those people were limited. She trusted Emily fairly well. Jacob was one of those people too. Maybe Ray and Quincy. But other than those four, she didn't really trust anyone else fully and wouldn't put it past any of them to try something.

"We also need to make sure you go no where alone with anyone else. We can't have a repeat of what happened at the bonfire that caused all this trouble. We need to make sure that I go with you, no matter what. They can't say anything against you if I was there with with you as well." She kissed him softly once more, "I know it will be difficult. But once all of this is cleared up and what Hunter did is brought to light, then things will get better and people will start trusting us more." She hoped. Some people still might be wary, but at least not everyone would believe that Serix was trying to destroy this little colony here.

She took a bit of an apple, causally eating as she leaned back, "We have the rest of the day to rest." She said, looking over at him, "At least no one can bother us until dinner time."

Coolio XD I time skipped three years, to where the other padawans there have been there for about a year.

Three Years Later

The feeling aboard the Mon Calamari class transport was one of uncharacteristic jubilance amongst the Jedi, many of whom had not been off-world in some time, let alone ever visited a world quite like Coruscant. To Odette’s recollection, the old Jedi Temple had not had a living Jedi step foot in it for decades. The planet gleamed through the cockpit window, where Odette tried to watch the approach behind two New Republic pilots who had been chartered to ferry the entirety of the Jedi Order to the ancient temple, but the other padawans were excited and quickly moved as well, not leaving much room to see.

In the prior three years, Ben and Odette had become close as friends and as Master Luke’s senior students had become responsible for directing the other students. None of the other students had constructed a lightsaber, the others lacking the knowledge and Odette and Ben lacking the kyber crystal necessary to construct one. The only reason she herself had a light saber was because it had belonged to her grandfather long before her and had been given it when she first arrived to train with Master Luke at the young age of seven. But it still wasn't 'hers'. She hadn't made it. And as much as she treasured her grandfather's saber, she wanted the honor of making one of her own.

Outside of Odette and Ben, there were 7 other padawans training under Master Luke, three of which were human, a Mon Calamari, a Rodian, and a Twi’lek. All were bright and exceptionally talented, and after their initial adjustment period, had proven to be dedicated and willing to learn. Odette had to admit it was nice to have company, although it was nice that it was just Master Luke, Ben, and herself in the first smaller home and the remainder stayed in another that was constructed when more Jedi were going to be initiated into the Order. Master Skywalker had trained the others well, but Odette always had the impression there was much missing from their training. Most of what Luke was teaching was based off of the training he’d been taught through Master Yoda and her grandfather, both of whom perished before Luke could complete his training. While he was by far the most talented and knowledgeable Jedi alive, Odette could often sense his frustration from not having all the answers. Coming to Coruscant had many motives for the Jedi Master; if there were any answers or secrets of the Jedi to be found, it would be hidden somewhere in the Temple’s halls.

Making room for the other padawans to have a look at the rapidly approaching planet, Odette returned to the common area where she’d found Ben. She wondered if he was excited about all of this as she was. When she had heard they were going to be heading off planet to take a visit to the old Jedi Temple on Coruscant, she was more than excited. For the first time since she was seven years old she would finally get to go see another planet. The sixteen year old girl was ecstatic and of so ready to get there.

The question that was in the back of her mind as they made the trip though, was why? Why were they heading to the old temple? Was there something there that the Master was searching for? Or was it just a trip for them to experience the old temple first hand and see even just a glimpse of what the old Order might have been like. Some of the other padawans had been whispering about the idea that maybe Luke was getting ideas to build a new temple on their own planet. It was an interesting idea, and who knew, maybe there was some truth to it. After all, with the growing numbers of padawans they really did need a proper area to train and better their skills.

She continued to think this over, book in hand as she sat at one of the tables. Before the planet had been in sight she had been reading silently. Knowledge was a gift that she did not take for granted and often in her free time was never found with out a book, learning about something new. But right now, she was too excited to read and so was joining Ben where he was. Ben had in the past three years become her best friend and he meant a lot to her. Even when the other padawans had showed up a year ago they had still remained closer than anyone else. They helped each other train and talked to each other when things got rough. Of course there were times of disagreement and frustration, as well as trying to show each other up in training, but it was a good friendship that she wouldn't trade for the world.

Smiling brightly, sat with him and spoke, "It's very exciting. I can't believe we're going to see the old temple. The very temple our grandfathers trained in." She began pulling her long blonde hair into a braid, knowing they would be landing soon and she didn't want it getting into her face during this first mission of theirs, "I hope we find something having to do with them. it would be really cool. Though I'm more excited than ever to go down to the old library. Who knows what they'll have down there. Maybe even some books to help us master more of the force, or even a history on the old Jedi Order."

Leaning forward a bit to whisper to him, she smiled, "I heard some of the other padawans speculating that maybe Luke is looking at the temple for references in building a temple of our own back home. Do you think its true?"

Star Wars: A New Force

@Renny
So I was thinking that perhaps after we're done with them being this age, we can time skip to where they are a little bit older (say 15 or 16) when they are a little closer as friends and a few more padawans have joined them? I was thinking we could have them take a trip to the old Jedi Temple on Corascant? Perhaps Luke hopes to build a Jedi Temple on their planet and so wishes to see what it is like? And maybe at the same time she and Ben can find the cyber crystals to make their own Light Sabers there? (yes odette has one, but its the blue one her grandfather had, not the purple one that I plan to really be hers. She will likely loose it or it will be destroyed somehow when they go to the temple). Anyway, what do you think?

Star Wars: A New Force

Odette couldn't help the small giggle that escaped her at his mention of how the Jedi robes looked like sleep wear, though put her hand over her mouth to hide the giggle, yet it didn't stop Luke from noticing and giving her a look when she did, yet she knew from his chuckle even he at least found it silently funny himself. When Ben left to go change, she looked to Master Luke and smiled, nodding when he mentioned the Rock Test. Oh yes, she remembered it well. When it came to levitating objects and using the Force, Odette had always been more skilled with that than she was with using the saber and fighting.That was why a lot of her own training was revolved around her saber because it was where her skills lacked.

Her first time with the rock test had still been difficult, though she had managed to at least move it a good distance before it had dropped heavily back to the ground. Now it was much easier for her, but she also had years of practice and skill to help her out with that too. She waited patiently by the rock for Ben to come out after changing into the Jedi robes and once he had, Master Luke began speaking, a smile on his face,

"Now, Ben, we will start you off with a few tests to see how your abilities with the Force are so far. This first test is very simply called the 'Rock Test'. I just want to see how far you can move the boulder using just the force. Odette will demonstrate for you and then once she is done, you can give it a try." He looked to the girl and nodded, "Odette, you may go ahead."

With a small smile and a nod, she looked over to make sure Ben was watching and once she saw he was, she turned to the boulder and took a deep breath in and out, honing in on the Force and calling herself to put all of her focus on the boulder. Once she was perfectly relaxed and unaware of many of the distractions around her, she reached her hand out, putting that focus on the boulder. The giant object began to shake and temple before lifting a good few inches from the ground. She wasn't nearly as good as Luke was with this, and clearly struggled somewhat with the amount of concentration it took, but as also very skilled with it, much more so than someone her age should be, as told to her by Luke.

After she had moved the boulder a good distance she let it drop and let out a heavy sigh before smiling again and looking to Luke. Master Luke smiled back at her and then looked to Ben, "Now, it is your turn. Give it a try. Block out everything else and put all of your focus on trying to move the boulder."
