Two week has passed and I haven't seen a single ship nor a planet. At least they have put some food bars in this floating prison. Probably so I could only suffer more. It was so boring in here and the only thing I could do was watching the stars. The first two days it was beautiful, the stars, the galaxy, but after watching the same stars every day it looses it's beauty. So here I sat against the wall, lifting some food bars with the force. There were like 3 of them left so it really was no challenge. 1 Per day is supposed to be enough, so 3 days to go. I have tried doing handstands too, on one hand of course. I also switched off the gravity a couple of times just for fun. Yup, I really was bored. Doing those things and talking to myself helped but today, I just gave up. I will die in three days anyway so what does it matter if I have fun or not.

"This is Ranna Fallon, do you copy?" A female voice said over the holo. Did I really heard that? Or am I hallucinating? Probably the last one.

"This is Ranna Fallon, do you copy?" She repeated. Am I not? I ran towards the holo. I saw a twi'lek somewhere in her forties probably.

"Kara Nightshade here, I copy" I said. I looked around in space and saw a ship. It looked like a republic ship.

"We're pulling you in" She said.

"Thank you" I replied. I felt the pod being pulled in. When I entered the ship I was greeted by three people, the twi'lek from the holo, a human male around my age and a togruta child who was like 5 years old. There was something familiar about the twi'lek though I couldn't place her.

"It is you" The twi'lek said almost hugging me. "Your species has a really long lifespan, you don't look a day older" She looked at me very happy but also very confused. "I thought you were dead, how did you survive order 66?" She said. Does she never stop talking?

"I'm sorry, I don't think we've met?" I said confused.

"You don't remember me? Ooh Ranna Fallon is just a code name. I am Charlena Dan'sor." The twi'lek said. What? That doesn't make sense.

"No, she is way younger" I said bold. She looked at me very confused.

"Time passes you know?" She joked.

"Yeah I know, but you don't age 20 years in one month" I replied frustrated. I don't like it when people are dying.

"One month? Kara, it has been 20 years" she said. She looked very worried.

"No, I spent 2 weeks in that pod and I don't know how long in carboni- Wait, I have been frozen in carbonite for 20 years? That can't be.." I was mostly talking to myself. I looked to the ground, processing everything. "How is that possible?" I asked Charlena.

"We'll talk about this later, you've gotta eat something other than food bars first" She said looking at me, she probably noticed how thin I had become.

"I totally forgot to introduce them by the way. This is my padawan, Zana Kahn" She said while pointing at the togruta child. "And this is Jason Starr, he just became a jedi knight"she said pointing at the human male. I nodded at them.

"Jason, show her around will you?" Charlena asked Jason. "Oh and call me Ranna, I don't want the imps finding out about me" she said. Jason walked away and I followed him.

"So, what did I miss?" I asked him. He stopped walking

"Kind off, A lot.. You missed order 66, Chancellor palpatine is now a sith emperor, and the republic no longer exist" he said looking down. "And all of that on my third birthday" He added.

"What is order 66? Ranna mentioned it earlier"

"It was the great jedi purge, all of the clones turned on the jedi and destroyed almost all of them. Darth Vader destroyed most of the jedi temple, it is nothing but ruïns now" He said. "My parents were killed on that day".

"I thought jedi aren't supposed to have children?" I asked.

"They weren't but there were a lot of secret marriages" He explained.

"Who is Darth Vader? He was there when he unfroze me out of the carbonite" I said.

"I think you knew him, you were obi-wan's padawan, right?" He asked. "Ranna, told me a lot about you. Actually, everyone did"

"Yes I was, but I don't want to talk about him.." I replied.

"Darth Vader was Obi-Wan's padawan before you, Anakin Skywalker" He said.

"He is Darth Vader?" It should be hard to believe but I have felt his dark force before, I could feel it everywhere. The last time I saw him, he was already dark.
