The Wolf Jedi

The Wolf In Me

Hey everyone! This is a continuation of "The Lone Wolf Saber" Enjoy!

"One. Two. Three..." I counted.

I swung and slashed the Lone Wolf Saber as I counted, trying to get the feel of it. I was up before the Atollon sun, training.

I haven't used the Lone Wolf Saber in battle yet, so I wanted to get accustomed to the weight and power before anything else.

Using a boulder as my training dummy, I practiced all my forms and techniques, not wanting to break the boulder.

I already did that five times before...

With one final swing, my lightsaber rested right next to the boulder. I panted slightly and smiled.

"I think that's good enough. I'll practice more with you this afternoon." I said, looking down at the lightsaber.

I deactivated my weapon and leaned against my training boulder. I looked up at the Atollon sky and sighed. The sky began turning from dark blue to orange in the most beautiful way.

If I'm going to be stronger than Crowvern, I'll have to practice every day if I have to...

I got off the boulder and tied up my hair. I activated my weapon and began training again. With every swing and slash, the Lone Wolf Saber began getting lighter and easier to handle. When I brought down my weapon, a jolt of electricity went through my arm. I dropped my lightsaber and clutched my arm.

What was that all about...?

"Hello Zelara." said a voice.

I looked all around me but didn't see anyone.

That's not Bendu's voice...

"I most certainly am not Bendu," the voice said.

"You can hear my thoughts?" I asked.

"Of course."

"Who are you?"

"I'm you. Well, another part of you."

"Another part of me? What, are you the Dark Side of me?"

"Not at all."

"How do I know you're not lying?"

"I'm you, and if I know you, you're not that good of a liar."

"Guess you do make a valid point..."

"Of course."

I leaned against the boulder and continued talking.

"So, what do you want with me?" I asked.

"We both know why you are training so hard and vigorously," the voice said.

"Crowvern..."

"His power grows with each passing day."

"And his apprentice?"

"They seek to become more powerful."

"But don't know the trouble and danger that awaits them in the long-run."

"Precisely..."

The two of us were quiet for a short while.

"So, what made you start talking to me?" I asked.

"My, you sure ask a lot of questions, don't you?" asked the voice.

"You're me. What'd you expect?"
