Brandon found not only Sam at the Jedi Academy, but Tumok, Ituor, and Hothok. He walked over to them. He told them what Yoda said to him about Daniel's discovery.

It was Sam who said the biggest WOW!
"All this time, and I didn't know a thing about this.
Surprisingly, Dad knew none of this."
She said with amazement.

"After all, it was many years ago. Even the Jedi Knights of today, don't know that much about their history of that era. Yoda is right by saying,
'We learn from history that we learn nothing from history,'"
Ituor said.

Tumok commented,
"This must change, and it must change now! We must contact
these Asgard people and learn all we can before it is too late."

Sam looked at Brandon and said,
"Yoda is correct, we must have you trained. It will be a heavy
burden for you. Be very careful of the Dark-side. If the Ubaids
are out to destroy the Jedi Knights of yesterday and today, then
they might try to take you."

Hothok came up and said to him,
"As everyone has said, the Jedi leaves no one behind. We'll
be helping you through your difficult training. You're very
strong with the Force, as was Anakin Skywalker. You can
become an apprentice of some other Dark Jedi or even become
a Dark Jedi yourself."

"The Dark-side is simply what Yoda told you. It means
to conquer and dominate. There's no good quality to it.
It has an allure to appear to be an easy and quick path, but it only
leads to evil and corruption. Even with your strength of the Force,
you won't be able to break from the power of the Dark-side.
It will consume and destroy you. Remember the ultimate
goals of the Ubaids are to eradicate all Jedi,"
Tumok said.

Brandon thanked them all for their advice and any help
in his future training. He also commented,
"Yoda has not yet told me that our conversations are at
an end. I am sure I can get great wisdom and any other training."

Sam said,
"We can start your training right now."

"Great, where do we start?"

"You will start your lightsaber training."
She asked Tumok to start up the remote. She said to her Padawan,
"I'll show you what you need to do."

Tumok asked his Padawan,
"Are you ready?"

"Let it go."

The remote just hovered in the air for a second or two, then it fired a few laser bolts out at her, and she blocked every one of them
with her lightsaber.
"Remember, I asked you to practice reaching out with the
Force while the rest of us were on Earth. I want you to do
the same thing, but this time, I want you to concentrate on
this remote." She handed him a lightsaber.
"This is a Jedi's weapon. It's important that this is with you
at all times or close beside you. We aren't asking you to sleep
with it or have it with you in the shower, but you might need it
even at those times. Now let's see what you can do."

Padawan Brandon Bowers held his lightsaber firmly, its vibrant blade humming as he stood in focused concentration. He opened his mind to the Force, letting it flow through him, heightening his awareness and guiding his movements. The remote hovered before him, its spherical form darting unpredictably as it fired rapid stun bolts. With a series of swift motions, he managed to deflect three of the incoming bolts, the energy beams ricocheting harmlessly into the air.

However, his focus faltered for a split second, and the fourth bolt
struck his upper left arm. The sting made him wince as he let
out an audible,
"Ouch!"
He adjusted his grip and stance, determined to improve.
Despite the setback, he felt the Force urging him to continue,
to trust its guidance and refine his connection. The training
was demanding, but each sting was a reminder to remain
vigilant and attuned to the flow of energy surrounding him.
