I woke early the next morning, the room was slightly cool; unlike the heat we endured the day before. I flipped over in the bed, to see Revan still in a deep sleep in the other bed. I did not know what time of day it was, Jedi never really kept track of time in the first place. But I assumed it was a bit before sunrise. I kicked the sheets off my body, and sat up, letting my feet dangle over the edge. I carefully let them fall flatly on the cold floor, I slowly pushed myself off the bed, as quietly as I could; in hope of not disturbing Revan. I walked across the room, to where Revan had placed our supplied and food. I reached into the sack of food, and pulled out my tiny portion of morning eat. I picked up one of the plump fruit, and squeezed it above my mouth, letting the sweet juices trickle in. The windows were turned to dim, and I could barely find my way around the room. I stumbled around trying to find my boots, and my Jedi clothing. Hunched over, I stubbed my toe on the side of the bed, which made a loud noise. I cringed.
Revan sat up, and looked in the direction of the noise. "Turn a light on in here." he said, sounding half asleep.
I stood up, and found my way to the dim windows, and turned the tint off. The room brightened up, and I spotted my boots, and clothing.
"Good morning, Master." I said, while slipping on my boots.
Revan nodded, and peeled the bedding from his body. He rested his face in his hands, he seemed quite tired. When the bedding slipped off his body, he was left bare, with nothing but his pants. I quickly looked down at my boots, I fiddled around with them until I was sure Revan had slipped on his everyday Jedi robes. I slowly let my eyes lift to his direction.
"What are the plans for today, Master?" I asked, while wrapping my belt around my waist.
He stood up, and reached over, grabbing his dark robes to pull over his tightly bound shirt. "I think by midday we should head towards the Cantina, we're wasting time here." He said, as he secured his belt around his waist. "And you're coming with me this time."
I nodded, "I'm looking forward to experience my first Cantina." I said, half sarcastically.
Revan smiled, "Well then, grab your stuff and we shall be on our way."
I tightened the sacks which carried our food, and grabbed my lightsaber off the counter and attached it to my belt. I picked up one of the sacks, and wrapped the rope around my wrist. Revan grabbed the other, after gathering all his personal belongings. and we both exited the small room, locking the door behind us.
The city had not yet grown lively, it seemed to be quite early in the morning. My spirits lifted at sound of the peaceful city. There were no loud obnoxious people, and no animals running between your legs. The only sound that was heard for miles was that of the whistling morning winds and the thumps of our boots atop the stone streets. We walked around watching as merchants sat up their stands on the edge of the streets, preparing for the mid-morning shoppers that come by in a rush. Revan and I bought a few more supplies from a couple stands, and stuffed it in our backpacks. As the crowd began to rise, and more people came pouring through the streets, Revan declared we would head to the Cantina. A small knot began to form in my stomach, I was a bit nervous. I wasn't used to Revans lifestyle; and I feared I wouldn't grow accustomed to it. Revan led me to a loud section of the city, people were already stumbling about; most of them leaving from being there the night before. I wrinkled my nose in disgust. "How could people let themselves act in this manner?" I asked myself, silently judging them. Revan laughed under his breath at the fools stumbling around us. I did not understand how he thought this was funny, I thought it was quite stupid. I could never let myself be seen the way they were acting.
I stayed close to Revan, dodging the people laying about on the street around us. We walked to the door leading into the Cantina, and Revan pushed the green button off to the side of the door, and it slid open.
