THIS WAS THE first time Aruna had ever stepped foot in the council room
She had followed her master inside as both of them were summoned by master yoda to reveal her trail results
Was she nervous? She was practically trembling, she really wanted to know if she passed the trails- then Aruna would get to be a true jedi knight and not rely on her master as a padawan
Of course, nothing was ever wrong with master fisto, he was great. But they both knew deep down that Aruna was now ready to be more than just a padawan, she had the maturity and knowledge to be able to do it
The meeting began, as master fisto took his seat in the council to prepare this long awaited news. As she stood in the middle of the room surrounded by master Jedi's she tried to keep her composure the best of her ability, even though she was internally freaking out inside and it didn't help that their eyes were watching her every move
"So, padawan souza, you have completed your jedi trials and we have discussed your results with the council..." master windu spoke for everyone else in the room, Aruna looked at her master for support and he gave her a encouraging nod as her gaze turned back to master windu
"You have been an exceptional apprentice to master fisto, completing all of your missions and succeeding, your hard work has been recognized by the council and your master. We are proud to say that you have passed your jedi trials.."
Her heart nearly sunk, hearing those words were like the air she needed to breathe. Aruna couldn't believe it, she was going to be a jedi knight, after all of her years of training and studying she have finally made it
Aruna couldn't hide how happy that made her, as a big smile crept on her lips
"And master yoda will know knight you, you may cut your padawan braid off."
One of the droids came and handed her some scissors, she has always wanted to do this, after all these braids were such a pain in the ass to deal with and she was more than glad to cut it off
As she gave the droid her braid, it placed it in a plastic box and closed it shut as it retreated back
Aruna bowed down to show her respect to the council, "thank you so much master windu, master fisto and everyone who saw the potential in me to make this final decision."
Master yoda came waddling to her with his cane, looking up at her and smiled, "congratulations, proud I am, grown you have."
Aruna bowed to master yoda, " thank you, I've really worked hard to get to this point"
Master yoda lifted the cane and knighted the girl, lightly tapping both of her shoulders
"Promoted you, I have." He declared as he waddled back to his seat
"Now that you are officially a jedi knight, we expect you to be on your best behavior" master windu says
"I'm always on my best behavior master.."
"Just because you're a knight know doesn't make you any less of a kid, remember you're just as young as any padawan and you're vulnerable to make mistakes."
She sighed, "but I'm better than a padawan, I won't make mistakes."
"Souza, that's no way to talk to your superiors.." master fisto warned, making her slouch her shoulders a bit
"Sorry master, but it's true! You know my abilities and I'm far exceeded from a padawan, that's why I passed those trials, isn't that something no other padawan has done in my age?"
"You forget a minor fact souza, you're not the only young jedi knight." Master windu stated, making her raise her eyebrow in confusion
"Really? Who else is could be reaching the same advanced level as me?"
"Anakin Skywalker." Master windu finished, suddenly her gut churned and her blood boiled, of course it's that cocky bastard, she should've known
It feels like she always is trying to prove herself that she's better than him, but he always finds a way to surpass her and it pisses heroff
How did she let skywalker become a jedi knight before her, she thought
To be fair, he did fight a Sith Lord which is something Aruna hasn'tdone at all. That doesn't make him any less better than her
Whatever the case is, she is still determined to be a better jedi knight than he is, doesn't matter who's the one who got knighted first

Sorry, she's a bit unlikable right now but I promise it'll die down
