The Daughter of Kenobi (A Star Wars Fanfic)

Part XXIII: Lightsaber Competition

{3rd Person} {Millennium Falcon}

Seemingly frozen in the small holding area, Luke stood there. The blue lightsaber hummed in his hands as he raised it over his head. Obi-Wan and Jaydin watched hum from far away, studying the moves. In Jaydin's case, judging them. Han on the other hand, seemed smug as he watched.

"Wrong way farmboy." Jaydin muttered, getting her lightsaber. She was getting tired of seeing the multiple mistakes he was making. Han glanced over at her and snickered. Jaydin gave a simple glare back. Both turned their attention back to Luke, watching him with a hint if smugness.

{Han POV}

'Wait. I thought she was a farmgirl? Aren't most people from Tatooine farmers?' I thought in confusion. 'Guess I'll just ask her in a little bit...' I shrugged it off, glancing at the girl before focusing back at the boy.

'Now that I think about it, the two did look like siblings. Maybe twins?'

{3rd Person}

"Remember, a Jedi can feel the Force flowing through him." Obi-Wan chimed in.

"You mean it controls your emotions?" Luke questioned the old Jedi. Jaydin rolled her eyes in slight annoyance.

"Partially. But it also obeys your commands." The father and daughter said identically. Jaydin grabbed the small "seeker" droid she had earlier, walking over to Luke.

"You expect me to go against two?!" Luke exclaimed.

"Yeah because you've never done any of this before I'm going to make you go against two... No I'm doing this with you." Jaydin said sarcastically. Luke let out a breath he didn't know he was holding in.

"Thank the Maker." Luke muttered. Jaydin rolled her eyes and faced away from her best friend.

"I swear on the Emperor's black bones, if you hit me when you swing that thing, you won't see the princess again..." Jaydin hissed in Luke's ear as a warning.

"G- Got it." Luke stuttered. Jaydin smirked at his response before taking one last tense breath.

The two stood back to back. One of them was standing there tense while the other seemed relaxed. Slowly, the two "seeker" droids rose in the air and up to eye level. They began to float from one side of the persin to the other, seemingly studying the person. Jaydin closed her eyes, the deadly, blade of her lightsaber now a few inches from her face.

Two blood red blaster shots flew threw the air and at the two best friends. One hit Luke in the leg, causing him to tumble over while Jaydin blocked hers, reflecting it away from her. She stepped back slightly, now taking on both droids.

Again, two blaster shots came at her. Once more, she reflected the bolts. Slowly, she began to dance around the small area, a blue beam of energy circling and twisting around the girl's smaller form. Blood red blaster shots flew threw the area, having been reflected by her.

At some point during her "dance" she fluttered her eyes open. Her blue eyes were like the calm Naboo ocean that she had heard so much about. Her mind was calm and focused on the task at hand. Jaydin wasn't even realizing how tired she was getting or how she had almost hit both "seeker" droids multiple times.

Then the sound of metal hitting metal met her ears. She had hit and downed the droid. Now only Luke's was left. The exhastion was beginning to set in and everyone could tell.

Jaydin's strength was weakening as she took one last swing at the incoming "seeker" droid's blaster shot. The shot reflected perfectly. A small zap was heard and then the droid fell to the ground. The blue blade retracted into the gold, silver and red hilt.

Jaydin smiled softly before she fell to her knees. Her long locks of hair covered her face as she lowered her head to the floor.
