New Beginnings

Chapter 20

Alexa POV

I went to Yoda's private meditation room and knocked on the door.

"Enter."  Came the voice and I walked in then sat down in front of the distinguished green Jedi Master. The room was dimly lit and silent, just the way a meditation room should be, I sighed and crossed my legs.

"You wanted to see me Master Yoda?"

"Yes, want to see you I did. Been watching you, I have."

"Watching me Master?"  I asked confused.

"Mhm. Watching how you have helped Young Skywalker's padawan. Good with her you are and teach her things you did."

"Thank you, Master Yoda, but-"

"Want you to take on your own padawan, I do."

"W-What?!"  I asked shocked as I swear I felt my jaw hit the floor. Yoda chuckled.

"Heard me, you did. Your own padawan I think you should have, good for you it will be and help you become a Master it might."  He flashed me a smile.

"T-Thank you, Master."

"Welcome, you are."

"When will I get my padawan?"

"Meet the padawan soon you will, worry do not."

"Very well Master, I thank you again."

"Hmm.... Dismissed you are."

I nodded then stood up and walked out. I needed to see Rendal and Anakin, I need a major reality check!

When I found him he was at the room of a thousand fountains talking with Rendal, as soon as I saw them I ran as fast as I could straight over to them.

"Alexa, what's up?"  Anakin asked, a little concern evident in his voice.

"I.... Just.... Got.... A...."  I tried to explain between pants.

"Woah, slow down a bit, Alex. Just try to catch your breath then tell us."  My boyfriend instructed and I listened to his advice. Once I felt good enough to talk I tried again.

"Now what is it?"  Anakin inquired.

"Master Yoda just told me that I.... Have been assigned a padawan!"  I cried as the boys looked at me stunned.

"What?!"  They asked in unison.

"It's true!"  I nodded.

"Alexa that's great!"  Anakin stood and hugged me!

"I can't believe this! That's awesome! Good job, Alex!"  Rendal kissed me as soon as Skywalker let go of me!

"Oh my gosh! I am so excited! I am actually going to have my own padawan, my own student! Ah!"  I started jumping up and down slightly.

"We have to celebrate!"  Rendal stated grinning.

"And I know just the place."  Anakin smiled.

"Wait we need to tell Maya."  I reminded him.

"Of course and I have a feeling I might know where to find her."  Rendal said and we went to find Maya talking with Jay in her room.

"Hey Maya."  Anakin said as the metal door slid aside to reveal Maya and Jay sitting on the bed.

"Hi Anakin, Alexa, Rendal. What's going on?"  She asked, looking rather surprised to see us.

"Well, we are going for a little celebration and we thought you might like to join us."  I explained.
