Star Wars: The Jedi Chronicles:Enter The Shadows (Books 1-4)

Chapter Two Finish the Fight

A week has gone by since Shain went home, and almost everyone has mostly recovered from their battles. Josh Sietsma, Jordin, Anthony, DJ, Eve, and Jacklinea are on the Dantooine system, planning their next move.

Josh S.: Alright everyone, it’s time we start our mission.

DJ: Josh is right. Shain isn’t coming back; we need to move forward and stay focused.

Eve: What about Cassandra? She hasn’t said anything since Shain left. Who’s she going to go with?

Jacklinea: I say we leave her here. She’s not tough enough to handle one person leaving. Besides, we’re supposed to be able to let go of our friends and family.

Eve: None of us will ever just forget about Shain! He’s not dead; he just can’t take the stress of everything.

Jacklinea: He’s weak, and doesn’t deserve to be here!

Eve: Then none of us do! I don’t know about you, but the rest of us are scared out of our minds right now. You should be too!

Everyone else, at this point, is standing around not knowing whether they should walk away or interject.

Jacklinea: Fear and not letting go of attachments leads to the dark side!

Eve: Like you have room to talk? You’re full of anger, hatred, and fear! I don’t know what your problem is, but you need to get over it!   

DJ: Oh-kay! That’s it! You two need a break! Cut it out now!

Josh S.: DJ, we two are going after your sister. Eve, you can go after Jacob and Jordan. And Anthony… you wanna go after Andrew?
Anthony: Sure.

Jordin: What about us, Master?

Josh S.: I am sending you to go talk Shain into coming back. Stay no longer than one month. Cassandra, you can go with him, if you want.

Cassandra says nothing.

Jordin: I guess... she’s coming?

Josh S.: I guess.

Anthony: We’ll meet back up here in a few days?

Eve: Sure thing.

Everyone climbs into their ships and head off their separate ways.
