New Beginnings

Chapter 11

Maya POV

Later we arrived back to the temple, I headed straight to my room, however on the way I saw Alexa and Rendal talking. I wasn't in the mood to talk to them so I tried to just walked passed them, but then I heard my name.

"Maya wait up!"  I stopped and I turned around. It was Alexa. I gave her a small smile.

"Hi Alexa."  I sighed.

"Hi Maya."

"I heard the mission was a success! So what did you think of your first assignment?"

"It went ok I guess."  I shrugged.

"Where is Dooku? Did he escape?"  Alexa asked.

"No."  I shook my head.  "Skywalker killed him."

"What?!"  She stared at me shocked!  "No Anakin wouldn't kill him! I know he wouldn't!"

"Well he did Alexa, I told him not to kill him and the chancellor told him to kill him. Skywalker listened to the chancellor and he didn't listen to me."  I replied as my anger bubbled up inside me.

I'm angry with Skywalker, and I'm upset with the Chancellor for telling Skywalker to kill him!

"Well I'm going to go to my room, I'm quite tired. Bye Alexa."

"Bye Maya."  She replied and I headed to my room.

Once I arrived their the metal doors opened and I walked in, hearing the doors closed behind me I put my hand in my pocket and took out count Dooku's lightsaber and stared at it.

Why did I take it? But it is good to have. Did I do the right thing to take this?

My mind was telling me that I did the right thing but my gut was saying I was stupid to take it.  If someone found out about it I would probably end up getting in trouble for taking Dooku's lightsaber. So, I put the lightsaber in the closet.  That way no one would find it without having to do a deep dive into the back of my wardrobe. I then sat on the bed briefly and looked around my room. The place was a total mess again.  So, after heaving a sigh, I got up off my butt and started tidying up.

When I finished tidying up my room and my stomach started growling. I'm going to get some dinner the metal doors opened and I walked out of my Room and walked to the mess hall I saw Alexa and Rendal. I called their names.

"Alexa! Rendal!"  They stopped walking and turned to look at me I ran over to them. 'Hey.'

"Hey Maya."  Rendal smiled.

"Where are you two off to?"

"We were going to get some dinner."

"Same here. Can I join you two?"

"Yeah sure Maya."  Alexa nodded.

"Thanks."  I gave them a big smile.

When we arrived at the mess hall we went in the line and got a tray. Once we got the slope on the tray we went to find a table.

"There's a empty table over there."  I said.

"Ok let's sit there."  Rendal suggested.

So we sat down at the table and we started eating, the food was horrible but I tried not to think of how disgusting it is. Rendal Alexa and I talked and ate, which was good as we've never had a right conversation before.

"Well I need to go to the bathroom anyone else need to go?"  Alexa asked.

"I'll go with you Alexa."  Rendal replied.
