Star Wars / Two Halves

3 : Giving in to Darkness

*Upon Returning to Luke's Training Facility*

Everyone was showing off their new lightsabers when we arrived. I didn't really care to boast about how cool or lame my lightsabers was, but of course Markus was all over everyone's ass showing off his dual blade lightsaber.

Markus:
"Yeah that's right I have a DUAL blade lightsaber, are you guys jealous or what?"

While he was bragging about his new lightsaber, me and Kira sat at the other end of the room, trying to figure out what Ben Solo might want with us.

Arek:
"It doesn't make any sense, I've never said one word to him in my whole life and suddenly he wants to have some secret meeting with me to meet some mystery man I don't know about".

Kira looked like she wasn't even paying attention to what I was saying as I saw that she was staring across the room.

Arek:
"Are you even listening to me?"

She looked over kept staring off into nothing until she finally spoke up.

Kira:
"Ben's been staring at us ever since we got here, haven't you noticed?"

I looked in the same direction as her to see if she was right, and sure enough, he was. As soon as I looked toward him however he quickly looked away.

Arek:
"Okay now i'm creeped out"

Kira:
"Why don't we just head up to our dorms for the night and see what he has to say tomorrow?"

I agreed with Kira and we parted ways to our dorm rooms, as I was walking to my dorm rooms I could sense that I was being followed. I turned behind me but saw nothing.

Arek:
"Who's there!?"

I grew a little worried with each passing second, I heard footsteps approaching as my heart pumped with every step I heard.

Ben:
"Is that you Arek?"

Arek:
"Ben? Don't scare me like that, what is it you want?"

He came up to me with a nervous look on his face as if he worried someone would catch us.

Ben:
"You got my note right? You haven't told anyone except the other two?

He looked very anxious, he kept fidgeting with his hands, looking behind his back, was he doing something he shouldn't be doing?

Arek:
"Yeah I got your note I only told them, where did you want to take us? Who is it that wants to see us?"

I felt like I might be asking too many questions but hey I wasn't the one acting mysterious.

Ben:
"I can't say yet, but you need to grab your friends, we have to go now"

I was confused, why were we leaving now? He clearly said that we had to meet him tomorrow.

Arek:
"Hey what are you talking about? You said we had to meet you tomorrow"

Ben:
"Change of plans, he wishes to see you now before Master Skywalker can find out"

Why would it be a problem if Master Skywalker found out? What the hell have I dug myself into...
