One day, several years later, when I should have been ten (in case your wondering due to my strong connection to the force I only age 1 year for every Ten years of life and my body actually changes ages to fit whatever circumstance I find myself in and I will eventually stop aging all together.)

I was being held by an elderly orphanage worker who was taking me to a new location when the transport was boarded by imperial officers.

"This is a passenger ship. We were granted permission to take off."

"I'm afraid that it's been canceled. As fortune would have it, you carry a cargo of interest to the Empire." Said a woman all in black suit with red stripes.

After searching the ship they still hadn't discovered what or who they were searching for. "This is a ship full of Jedi sympathizers. Kill them. Kill them all." A Sister orders with a wave of her hand. One by one each passenger was shot until they came to the woman who was holding me. The man looked over at the woman who had given the order to kill the passengers.

"Please, no. Keep away." The woman holding me whispers pulling me into a tighter embrace. The seventh brother and his female companion paused. She opened the shield that covers her face.

"Fear not old one. We wish to make friends. But first we have some business to attend too." With that the Seven brother took out his round circular lightsaber and threw it down the corridor instantly killing everyone in it's path. They then turned their attention back to me.

"Now, what should be done with you little one?" The Fifth brother states as I begin to wail.

"You already know the answer to that brother." The Seventh sister replies as they placed me in their ship while they went in search of their other prize.

Luckily, I was rescued by some rebels. Unfortunately, the group wound up surrounded by empire troops. "Tell the Inquisitors that we have located the infant."

An imperial officer by the name of Richard Leeson decided to speak up. "Sir, forgive my boldness, I know that I should never question my superiors but she's just a baby what do these Inquisitors plan on doing with her?"

"What they're intentions are for this child is not our concern. These Inquisitors outrank everyone. You know this Richard."

"Not everyone. I think we should inform Governor Tarkin or Grand Admiral Thrawn about this child and await their orders."

"If I know Governor Tarkin, and believe me I do, he will order that the child be returned to the Inquisitors. So I suggest that you do not become attached to her."

"Understood sir." Richard replies. As he turned to leave he almost crashes into Grand Admiral Thrawn. "I am so sorry sir."

"It is fine. You seem to have your hands full."

"Yes sir. Though I am not sure for how much longer."

"Oh?"

"This child is not mine. She was on a transport that the Inquisitors boarded. The transport they boarded held no valuable supplies. They killed all of the passengers on board except this sweet innocent infant. They left her alone on board one of their ships. I found her in the hands of some rebel kid. He was being chased by the inquisitors. I told him that I could hide the child. He was extremely reluctant to do so but then eventually did hand her over to me before taking off followed closely by the Inquisitors. They evidently wanted and still want her. Though I don't understand why they would have the slightest interest in her. She's just an infant."
