"You're- how did- how are you even-?" you try to ask, your mind racing with numerous questions as you look upon your former master.

"There's no time to explain. Quick, let's get out of here!" he says, quickly grabbing you by the arm.

"But he can't just leave!" Lop interjects. "He needs to rest and heal up from his wounds!"

"He'll be fine, woman! Now come on, let's go." he assures her, trying to pull you away.

"No, she's right. I... I can barely even walk properly..."

Your master sighs, before suddenly pulling out a large needle and sticking it deep into the injured leg.

You wince at the sudden pain, and Lop gasps as she sees it happen.

"What the hell are you doing to him!?" she shouts, forcefully pulling the needle back out. "You can't just-"

"Watch." he interrupts her.

The large scar on your leg immediately begins to fade away, as the wound somehow closes itself up and heals before your very eyes.

The pain quickly subsides, and after a moment your leg looks completely unscathed.

"That's... that's just incredible!" you say in disbelief.

"Indeed. Now let's go!" he shouts, leading you out the door as Lop follows close behind.

You went from not seeing this guy for literally years, to him basically trying to kidnap you.

You really don't know how to process all of this.

"Okay, okay, just... what's even going on here?" you ask in confusion.

"Honestly though, who even are you?" Lop asks, clearly angered by the whole situation.

The old man sighs, reluctantly coming to a stop in the middle of the hospital's hallway. "So many questions..."

"Well, yeah!" you say. "I haven't even seen you in, what, years? And you decide to just suddenly pop back into my life, saying we're all in danger. Like, what the hell?"

"I... I felt a great disturbance in the Force, and it led me here. A huge rebellion... many dead... and the Empire suddenly abandoning the entire planet."

"I guess news travels fast through the Force, then." you sarcastically mutter.

"It does!" he says with a frown. "And you'd be just as sensitive as I am if you actually tried practicing your abilities, every once in a while."

"'Practiced his abilities'?" Lop asks in shock. "(Y/N) saved my life! He even trained me on how to wield a lightsaber!"

"Well, it's a wonder you didn't accidentally cut off your own arm or something." he says with a dismissive wave. "(Y/N) still has much to learn."

"You do too! Learn some manners!" Lop angrily shouts.

You gently place a hand on Lop's shoulder. "It's fine. Don't take what he says to heart. He's just... he's always been like this."

"Like what? A realist?" he asks.

"An annoyance." you chuckle. "Anyway. What's this 'big danger' you were saying our planet is under?"

The nurse from earlier walks up to your party of friends, looking up at the former Jedi master. "Excuse me sir, you're not allowed in here."

"Yes, I am." he says with the wave of a hand.

"Yes, you are." she says, before quickly turning back around and heading outside.

"...perhaps, it would be best to explain from my ship. Without prying eyes." he says.
