"Get back here you little shit!" Came the booming voice of one of the vendors littering the streets of Coruscant, as Jason bolted away. Speeding off with a bag full of food in hand, there was no way he was going to stop for anyone. Racing through the streets as fast as he could, Jason soon found himself grabbed as he rounded the corner and pulled into a small alleyway. Watching as the vendor bolted past Jason breathed a huge sigh of relief, before he turned to face the all too familiar face of his friend. "I owe you one Towa." He hunched over trying to catch his breath, before looking back up at his blue skinned Twi'lek friend, a bright goofy smile on his face. "You're lucky you're so loveable you goof." She retorted, a smile creeping on her rather serious face. "Come on, the others are waiting for this." She beckoned him to follow, and he was only too happy to oblige. Picking the bag up, he carried it through the alleyway and into their little city of Orphan's. Little did the two of them know, that someone was following them.
"Hey gang! Guess who's back!" Towa shouted out, as one by one more and more youngsters appeared from out of the woodwork. Some far younger than Jason and Towa were now approaching the two of them, with Jason crouching down and handing each of the kids a piece of fruit, and some bread. It wasn't much, but it was more for the kids than himself. He could go hungry, as long as everyone else was fed. "Are you not eating Jason?" Towa asked, as she too was slowly eating the food she was given. "As long as you guys are fed, I don't care about me." Towa slapped the back of Jason's head, looking at him with a angry gaze. "Idiot! You're gonna eat and that's final!" She then stuffed a piece of bread in Jason's mouth, as he attempted to stop her. Until their peace was shattered by an unwelcome visitor....or two. "Well now, what do we have here?" As quick as a cat Jason hopped up onto his feet, and turned his attention to the people before them, with Towa moving shortly after. But there was something weird about the two people before him, the young Twi'lek looking girl had a bright blue....well 'aura' about her, whilst the man that was next to her, had a light blue 'aura' as well, his had a hint of darkness inside of it, but it still shone brightly however.
"What the..." Was all he muttered out, before the young female began speaking. "Nice job evading that vendor, but you can't evade a Jedi." She said triumphantly, hands on her hips. Whilst the older male, looked down at her disappointingly. "Now now Ahsoka, Pride leads to the Dark side." The girl now named Ahsoka who must've been no older than seven years old, looked down at the ground. "Sorry Master Plo, I'll be sure to keep my mouth shut next time." Master Plo smiled behind that mask of his, and looked down at Ahsoka. "Just be mindful of your words young one, especially when you become a Padawan." Before either of them could react, they heard the unmistakable sound of a lightsaber activating, and when they turned their heads they were met with an eye opening sight. Plo Koon immediately reached down to his lightsaber, which was nowhere to be seen. "Now. How did you do that I wonder?" Plo reached his hand out to call his lightsaber back to him, yet was met with a sizeable resistance, as Jason through some kind of invisible force held onto the lightsaber. "Force sensitive.....how curious." With a final 'yank' with the force Master Plo Koon pulled the lightsaber back into his hands before deactivating it. Towa, the young orphans and even Ahsoka looked on almost in awe at what Jason had done. To go force to force, with a Jedi Master was something no one expected, especially one so young.

A short while later, Jason found himself before a room full of older men and women, whom were all seated as he stood in the middle of the room. Hands in front of him, as he twiddled his fingers nervously. Those he cared about were safe for now, having been brought into this...temple? He had no clue what to call it, with him. "Strong in the force you are, your name would you tell?" A little green man asked Jason, looking at him quizzically. Like he was trying to assess him, and what he was capable of. "I....I'm Jason sir. Jason Willsaam." The boy finally spoke, taking in a deep breath at the all eyes watching his every move. "Sorry, but where are the people I was taking care of? Are they-" Before he could finish he was interrupted by a bald headed man, who had a serious look on his face. "You needn't worry about them, it's yourself you should be worried about." Jason looked at all the people before him, taking in each and every one of their appearances. Once again, he noticed the 'aura' surrounding each and every person around him. How had he not noticed this before? What even was he looking at anyway?"Confused you look. Something troubles you, I sense." The little green man once again spoke to Jason, and Jason almost felt compelled to reply. "It's...hard to describe, but I can.....I guess your aura? It's hard to explain." The Masters all looked at each other, a worried yet almost expectant expression upon their faces. "Aura's you say? What colours do you see?" This time it was Master Plo Koon who spoke to the youngster, who turned his head ever so slightly. "Well...you Sir have a bright blue aura, with a hint of red, whilst Uhh....Master Yoda? Has a brilliant blue aura, whilst the Master next to him, has a purple like aura." Windu looked to Yoda, and then to Plo Koon, who both simply nodded their heads. "Trained you will be, in becoming a Jedi. Prepare yourself you will, for training will be difficult."
