Star wars: a mirrored life (legacy book 1)

Chapter 9: your thoughts on this, padawan?

"Valerie, wake up."

"Valerie....."

Valerie woke to find her new friend Techla at her side. It had been a week since her crashed, her wounds had nearly fully healed. She had been having the same visions all week and had sought the help of Techla, who enlightened her with knowledge of the sith empire.

"Lemme sleep." Valerie said in annoyance.

"Valerie, you have to wake up. We have a meeting with the council regarding your visions." Techla stated.

"Say what now!?" Valerie exclaimed, she was shocked to hear she had a meeting with the council regarding her visions. What will she say? What will THEY say?

"It starts in a short while." Techla said bluntly.

Valerie quickly jumped up as Techla left the room, she quickly got dressed and brushed her hair and ran out of her room. Techla was outside leaning on the wall next to her door.

"We are late." Is all Techla said before power walking down towards the turbo lift.

Valerie struggled to keep up but eventually caught up with her friend when they reached the turbo lift.

Valerie's mind was racing so fast she didn't realise that they had already reached the top floor. The two padawans stepped out if the turbo lift and into a small waiting room. There, standing near the door to the council chamber was none other than anakin skywalker the supposed chosen one.

"Is this the person that would betray us?" Valerie thought to herself.

"Hello padawans, the council is waiting for you" anakin said as the doors opened revealing the entire Jedi council already seated.

Techla and Valerie entered, with Techla almost pulling Valerie to walk until they where in the center of the room. Anakin quickly stood beside the doors, this time inside the council chamber looking as bored as ever.

"Padawan Jamari has told us you where having strange and threatening visions padawan maraan, is this true?" Mace windu questioned Techla.

"Yes master" Valerie replied.

"Tell us, will you?" An ancient voice replied from the other side of the room, Valerie could see it was master Yoda.

"Well, I was having strange visions of the temple." Valerie continued

"In my visions there was no one in the temple. It felt as if everyone had died. The temple looked distraught; there where blaster marks scattered across the walls, graffiti and my meditation garden had been destroyed.

I wen to run outside but there was someone at the door. It was a young twilek girl who I have the lightsaber of. She told me that the darkness is coming and that the chosen one was to betray us."

Valerie finished, not proud of what she just said.

"Have you seen this twilek girl before?" Master windu questioned.

"Yes, when I was on Korriban I had visions of her. She appeared to be a sith apprentice. I found her lightsaber, she was in the temple and...."

"And what where you saying about the chosen one? That he or she would betray us? Padawan what evidence do you have?" Someone burst out from behind Valerie- it was anakin.

"You think they would fall to the darkside?" Anakin said angrily.

"Anakin!" Obe wan reprimanded anakin.

"Let her speak, these are only visions." Shaak ti responded.

"I have no... Nothing else to say.... I must go.... Now..." Valerie stuttered as she ran off down the corridor.

"Valerie!" Techla yelled.

When Valerie reached her quarters she sat down on the cold floor.

"They didn't believe me...." She said aloud as she drifted off to sleep.

*bang*bang*

Valerie could hear blaster fire, like in a distant battle. She could sense confusion. But all she could see was the colour black.

Darkness like that she saw on Korriban.

Then suddenly her vision became hazy- she could see someone standing across the room from her... The twilek girl.

She saw the girl walk out of her room into the corridor.

There was a battle raging- the clone troopers where fighting against the Jedi.. And killing them.

The twilek Jedi elegantly cut through clones making her way to the door.

Valerie tried to cut down the clone troopers but they where not really there but a vision so they didn't notice her.

When the twilek Jedi made it to the main entrance she muttered to Valerie-

"Follow me, get out of the temple before it is too late young one."

That's where the vision ended. Valerie sat of in her quarters.

"I have to go." Was all she said before running away to the hangar bay and boarded a ship.

The ship she hijacked was a scout class vessel.

"What am I doing" was all she thought as she punched in the coordinates to go to the planet tython.

Valerie felt she should go there as tython was the Jedi homeworld. It's where the original temple still stands. It's where the twilek girl told her to go in one of the visions she had earlier.

"Master lornetta is going to kill me."
