The sun was shining brightly on Crouscant. A city-covered planet with four rotating moons around it. Coruscant is the vibrant heart and capital of the galaxy, featuring a diverse mix of citizens and culture. It features towering skyscrapers, streams of speeder-filled air traffic, and inner levels that stretch far below the world's surface. It held 2 trillion people, 68% of them were humans, 32% were different types of sentients. But all this information didn't matter to two kids as they ran across buildings with laughter.

"Come on Cal!! Im winning!!" The 7 year old brown haired girl yells to her partner. She laughs as she briefly looks back and sees the 7 1/2 year old boy turn red with frustration. He hated that nickname.

"Not for long!" The boy yells as he runs past the girl.

They both ran on-top of the building, they both were approaching the end of the building as another begins. They could hear the chatter of the people on the ground walking around. The jump between the two buildings were some feet apart and would usually stop any sane person from jumping, no less children. But these two jumped off from the building roof onto the next with little hesitation. Both laughed loudly as they kept racing.

The part of Crouscant they lived in was what one would call the poor district. Rundown house complexes, trash littered the streets. But this didn't stop any of the residents from trying to make this community a safe one, or a happy one for that matter. These two children were born here, they played here, they laughed together here. It was their home.

Both children jumped to another building and stoped as they got to the next jump sight. This one they never jumped before because of the large gap. Over 8 feet they would have to jump.

"I think today's the day Caleb." The girl turns to her partner in crime in confidence.

"Your crazy Rebekah! We can't jump that! Your Dad will kills us!" Caleb turned to her but all he saw was a glint in her light brown eyes. Even though they were only 6 months apart, he knew enough to know that there was no stopping her when she had that glint.

"He won't know if we don't tell him!" She jumps in her spot as she thinks about the achievement they would have after finally jumping it. They've been wanting to do so for so long, but both were afraid.

"He'll know when I have to tell him his crazy daughter got sent to the medical clinic after trying to jump that!" Caleb pointed towards the big gap.

"Come on Cal!! We've been waiting to do this! I know we can make it! I just feel it!" She tells him as she starts walking away a good distance to have a running start. She turns and looks at the jumping gap in determination.

Before Caleb can make a move she takes off and starts running. It all went so fast yet so slow.

"Bekah! No!!" His voice rings out as soon as her first foot touches off from the building.



Thats when he woke up.

Kanan sits up as he recalls the dream. He looks around his little room that he sleeps in on the Ghost. It wasn't much be he kept it clean and neat like he was taught at the temple. He had his blasters and green shoulder plate on the chair besides the built in desk. He looks at the time on the holopad that he had next to him. He must have fallen asleep while reading the next mission they have. He sighs as he sees its past 8 in the morning.

"Whos Bekah?" A voice scares Kanan and makes him hit his head on the top bunk.

He groans as he rubs his head and looks to Ezra who jumped off the top bunk and smirks at his accomplishment of scarring his Jedi Master.

"What?" Kanan grunts as he gets up and starts to put on his belt and blaster, getting ready for the day.

"Bekah. You were mumbling her name over and over. 'Bekah! Bekah!' So who is she?" Ezra mimics Kanan before looking back at him.

"Uh..what are you doing in here?" Kanan changes the conversation as he walks past Ezra and leaves the room with the padawan following closely.

"Hera said we were going to go on a run for supplies and asked me to come and get you. But.... You were asleep." Ezra explained as they both walked to the kitchen/dinning room.

Ezra took a seat next to Sabine who was eating some cereal and reading something on her holopad. Zeb was just walking towards the table to start eating some of the food he made, when they both came in.

"So who's Bekah?" Ezra asked again as he tried to steal a bacon strip from Zebs plate who slaps his hand away. This made Sabine and Zeb look to Kanan who stiffed up when he was pouring some coffee in his cup.

"Hera make a list of what we need to get?" Kanan brushes it off again and turns to the three of them as they all wait for an explanation.

"Yea I have it. Who's this Bekah we're talking about?" Sabine raised an eyebrow at Kanan as she looks to Ezra and back at him in confusion.

"Can we get everything in one go at the market? Or do we need to split in to twos again?" Kanan rolls his eyes as he trys to change the topic once again.

"Wait a minute. Your changing the topic, that means you don't want us to know. If you dont want us to know then it's pretty important to you. Who is she? She ya girlfriend?" Zeb chuckles as he leans against the table and smirks at Kanan.

A brief memory of the girls face pops in his head before he shakes it away.

"No! Shes someone I knew once upon a time, the end. When you three are ready and grown up come find me so we can leave." Kanan sternly tells them then walks out to head to the cock pit to be in peace.

The three of them watch him leave quietly. When he was gone they look at each other before in union they talked.

"Girlfriend." They all said at the same time before Sabine and Zeb finished eating. Ezra looked back at the door in wonderment.

"But why haven't we meet her? Shouldn't we have known about her by now?" He turn to the other two as they look at him in confused that he would ask.

"None of our business if he dose or doesn't tell us." Zeb says as he stuffs the rest of his food in his mouth and gets up to put his plate in the sink.

"Yea but how come we never heard of her before now?" Ezra looks at them.

"Maybe its too painful. She might be gone Ezra." Sabine looked at him then gets up herself to put her bowl in the sink.

Sabine and Zeb walk out as Ezra looks down in shame and wonder.

If she caught the attention of a Jedi, she must have been something eles, Ezra thought before leaving towards the others.
