I pulled up the cloak of my hood as I exited out the temple doors. I watched as a group of younglings were playing with a ball, throwing it to each other. They were a little too close to the edge of the huge platform that the temple resided on. There was plenty of space near the temple for their game, why where they all the way over there? Well, time to shut this game down before they get hurt, or possibly go over the edge of the platform.
As I walked over to them, one of them went to catch the ball, a Togruta girl with light pink Montreals, peach skin, and bright orange eyes. She was at least 5 years old, the other two kids seemed to look around her age. The ball instead knocked into her and knocked her over the edge of the platform.
Rushing, I ran over to them, my hood coming down in the panic. With each step I took, the floor seemed to vibrate as I used the force to see how far she had already fallen. At the same time, I outstretched my arms and used the force to pull her back up to the platform we were on. Time seemed to stop as I lifted this girl back up to the platform we were on. I didn't notice as everyone's eyes were on me, as that wasn't my priority. As soon as the girl was safely on the platform and away from the edge did I realize how drained I felt from using the force like that. I fell to my knees, my arms the only reason I haven't fallen down completely. I felt an arm on my shoulder as I looked up to find the person that the arm belonged to, another Jedi. A padawan that was in my beginning class when I first joined the Jedi, I never did learn any of their names though. As at the time, I was shy and mostly kept to myself.
"Are you alright, Nova?" One of them asked me.
"I'm fine." I replied to them. I took their outstretched hand and they helped me up. I then turned back to the kids, in which were being scolded by another Jedi. This Jedi didn't have a padawan braid, so they where at least a Jedi Knight.
As I aproched the group, I heard the Jedi say, "Why are you all way over here when there is a safer place to play that's near the temple?"
"We aren't allowed there." I heard one of the boys tell them.
"And why's that?" I asked them.
"No one will let us play there, even if no one is playing there." A 10 year old human girl says.
"That's ridiculous." I told them. "Come on." I told the group as I took off in the direction of the small area near the temple that the younglings are supposed to play in. When I felt no one following me, I turned around and motioned for them to follow me. Hesitantly, the group of 3 kids followed me.
Once we were in the area, I turned to the other kids who were hesitant to enter this area. "Relax." I told them. "No one's gonna hurt you."
"Easy for you to say." The boy tells me as he looks down to my two lightsabers. "Why do you have two?"
"More blades to protect myself with." I told them.
"Or to get you cut in half better." The human girl tells me.
"Not if you know how to use them." I told them. "Say, what are your names?"
"I'm Xander, and this is my sister Tami." The boy tells me.
"Her name is Lily-la." The human girl, Tami, tells me after Lily-la doesn't answer my question.
I used the force to lift up the ball they where just using and asked, "so, anyone want to play?"
"Here?" Tami asked as she carefully looked around.
"Nothing is going to happen." I told them. "Besides, I'll help you if something does happen."
~~~
It's been at least 20, maybe 30 minuets since we've started to play on this field and nothing has happened. Maybe they were making a big deal out of nothing, or maybe not as I saw three kids walked onto the field, a dark blue twi'lik male, a human male, and a light green twi'lik female. The human looked about a year older than me while both twi'ilks looked around Liliy-la, Xander, and Tami's age. The girl twi'lik looked older than the male twi'lik though.
"Nathan." I heard Lily-la whisper.
"Oh no." Tami says.
"Well, look who we have here." The human male says.
"Looks like a bunch of rats to me." The twi'lik girl says.
"Careful you two, Nova's Yoda's Padawan." The twi'lik male says.
"She's probably just as pathetic as them if she hangs out with them." The human boy tells his friends.
"Just leave us alone, Nathan." Tami tells the human boy. So, he's Nathan.
"I thought I told you low counts to beat it off the field at one time." Nathan tells them.
"Low counts?" I asked, not following the conversation at all.
"These three have some of the most lowest midichlorian counts." Nathan tells me.
"And you pick on them because of that?" I asked them, I have my right hand hovering over my lightsaber in case I may need it. "That's not right."
"They are weak and will always be weak." Nathan tells me. "They are a disgrace to this order."
"Careful on your thoughts." I warned him. "For they will betray you." I told him as I felt the littlest bits of darkness within him.
"You are a disgrace just by associating with them." He tells me.
"By your logic, I'm far from that as my count is higher than even Master Yoda's." I told him.
"No one's is higher than he's, so you're a liar." He tells me. I rolled my eyes at his comment, I can't believe that he is so blinded by anger to think that I may have told him the truth. "No, I won't tell you again. Beat it before I make you!"
"Oh, I'm so scared of you." I sarcastically told him.
"We should go. While he's not quite in the mood to hurt us." Tami tells me.
"And just let this jerk continue to walk all over you?!" I asked them.
"Who are you calling a jerk?" Nathan angrily asks. I can just feel his anger radiating off of him in waves as he grabs his lightsaber.
"Now, now, now." I told him. "Let's not do something that you may regret later. Your emotions aren't stable."
"Yes they are!" He tells me as he pulls out his saber. Well, things have gone down hill. I concentrated and sent out waves pulsing threw the force, asking someone to come and help asap. "Now beat it." He turns on his lightsaber which emits an orange color.
I grabbed one of my lightsabers with my dominant hand, which is my right hand, and an icy blue came out of the hilt. "You want to do this?" I asked them.
"If you want to." He tells me right before he charges at me.
