I head over to the hanger, only to be stopped at the doors by the temple guards. 

"my lady, it's the middle of the night. it's not safe for you to go out alone." 

"huh?" 

I look to the window to see it's dark outside. 

"oh sorry. I didn't realize, I guess I lost track of time." 

"forgive me my lady, but how did you manage to loose track of time?" 

"I was training and I didn't realize how much time passed. but that aside, why are you both calling me lady?" 

"it's the new title you received from the council." 

"when did that happen?" 

"a couple days ago. they will be announcing it soon. so everyone will probably start calling you that soon instead of your other titles." 

"I see.... thank you for the information, please excuse me." 

I bow changing my coerce to visit my old master. who had come back from the battlefield not to long ago. I was about to knock, but the door slid open before I could. he must have sensed me coming. heading inside, spotting him on one of his meditation cushions. 

"Master." 

I bow. 

"troubled you are." 

I blink, looking away. 

"but not the reason you have come." 

"yes... I was wondering master, why did I receive a new title?" 

"heard have you?" 

"yes, from a temple guard while passing by. they didn't say why though, only that the council decided it." 

Yoda frowned. 

"master what's wrong?" 

I take a seat across from him, on the other cushion facing him. he closes his eyes. 

"agree with the council on this, I did not. foolish I think it is." 

I felt worried. my master hardly ever spoke outright his thoughts on disagreeing with decisions involving the council, or showing his emotions very much either. at least not as clearly as right now. I wait for him to continue. 

"the council decided on the new title because of your standing." 

"what do you mean?" 

my master sighed. 

"a Jedi you are, yes. a padawan you were, yes. a archivist you became, yes. the rank of Jedi knight you have received, yes." 

but he paused. he didn't seem to know the right words to use. 

'ah.. I see.' 

he never really knew how to use the right words to say, when it came to this subject. 

"it's because I'm different." 

he didn't say anything. that pretty much meant I hit the nail on the head. I knew he didn't see me as different then any other Jedi. weather I was more powerful or weaker then others. he see's me as me. though in the eyes of the public and other Jedi it I would be different. especially after the stunt I pulled at the arena. but being different isn't something I'm not used to. besides it's enough for me that my master, Obi-Wan, Anakin and no doubt padmé would see me as me. so I don't feel upset by it. besides it be boring if everyone was the same.
