The Blind One

Nice Going, Skywalker

Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Sanar stood in the middle of the council room before all the Jedi. Master Yoda had a mission for the three of them that was of the utmost importance; the protection of Senator Padme Amidala. A bounty has been placed on her head by Nute Gunray and the Trade Federation after the recent death of Corde. It was vital that her life is in the hands of those who can sense danger and keep the senator alive at all costs.

"The three of you, to Padme's apartment, you will go," Yoda ordered.

"Yes, Master Yoda," the three said in unison.

The three bowed, left the council room, and went to prepare to leave for Padme's. Sanar was quite excited to be on a mission, it had been a while since she was on a mission with a master. Plus, Amidala was an old friend of the padawan's, and it's been a few years since she last saw the newfound senator of Naboo.

"Nervous?" Anakin teased.

"Not in the slightest, Skywalker. But I sense you're nervous." Sanar stated.

"I-I'm not nervous." Anakin lied.

Sanar laughed. She could tell that there was obviously something between Anakin and the senator for him to be so nervous about this mission. Anakin glared at the padawan for laughing at his statement, no matter how true it was.

" Are you two done arguing over who is nervous and who isn't?" Obi-Wan asked.

"Who said I was arguing, master," Sanar said, as she winked at Anakin.

With that being said, Sanar departed from her master and Anakin to prepare for the mission. Soon as she was out of sight, Anakin stopped his master in the middle of a hall to ask about Sanar's past and where she originated from. He was quite curious that the Council gave Obi-Wan a blind Jedi padawan; let alone another person under his wing.

"Master, what is padawan Sanar's whole story?" Anakin asked.

"Master Windu said everything he needed to say about Tallev, Anakin," Obi-Wan stated.

"But that's not her true story, is it, Master?" Anakin asked with persistence.

Obi-Wan sighed. He guessed it was time to tell his apprentice about the padawan's past because he knew for sure that if nothing was said; then, Anakin won't stop asking.

It had all started when she was a little girl, she was originally adopted from an orphanage because her homeworld Katarr was gone, but her parents loved her very much. In the middle of the night, Mandalorians who lived on the planet terrorized and murdered the inhabitants. When Sanar was eight years old she witnessed her parent's death by a Mandalorian in green armor; that was the day she first saw death and blood. He shot her parents in cold blood and then burnt the house down to the ground with a flamethrower; that's when she thought her life was over. But a Jedi who was doing a mission for the Rebuplic at the time took her in, saved her from the Mandalorian that was going to abduct her, and then brought her to the homeworld of the Jedi Council. There Sanar was taught by Mace Windu, who took great interest in her talents, no matter what her disability. Master Windu is the one who built her the purple lightsaber and trained her to be very powerful and to sense force auras.

Her past was never written in the records in the library because she didn't want younglings to endure her tragic past. It was for their benefit so that they wouldn't be led down the path of the Darkside and thirst for revenge.

"So that is how she became who she is, Anakin," Obi-Wan said.

Anakin looked down for a moment. He thought his life was a nightmare all on its own, but after hearing about Sanar's past, he felt the need to take pity on her.
