Pain ... nothing but pain. I slowly opened my eyes. Where am I. Around me were dark walls and a steel grille, which gave me a view of a corridor and other cells like mine.

Steps. Someone came closer. I need to know where I am. "Get up ... prisoner" A rough and deep voice came from next to me. When I turned my head to the side and I saw a trooper dressed in black. A purge trooper...
When I managed to get myself up I walked a bit towards the grille
"Where am I, and Why am I here?!"
"Shut up!Nobody asked you to speak. "The Purge trooper went on and left me without any answers. I wasn't feeling too well. The headache is still killing me...

I looked around and saw two more cells in front of me. They were empty. The room in which the cells stood was also quite dark. A red light emerged from the floor.

Why am I here ... I couldn't remember anything that happened before my captivity. All I knew was that I was here and I couldn't get away ... I was captive.

After a few minutes or hours the trooper came back with some food.
"Eat." He threw the tablet at my feet. It wasn't really there yet. A bottle of water and a bowl with some porridge-like in it.

That's how I think it went every other day, morning and evening. More prisoners came and went, but I didn't know where they went.Why am i staying here.
After eating, the trooper took the tray again and left without saying another word. I walked towards my bed  and tried to sleep. I closed my eyes and slid over to sleep.

"Get up prisoner. Food!"My guard hit the bars to wake me up
I've been here for quite a long time now. Still ignorant why. I knew that I was an enemy in their eyes because I had joined the rebellion years ago. But how I got caught remained unclear to me.

More days passed ... I couldn't assess it exactly, my sense of time was gone. It felt like forever.
A door opened and the guard came in. "Cell control" The trooper opened my cell and let me stand against the wall with my back to him. They did this every day to make sure no one was building a knife or anything. As if it would bring something, as they are armored ...
I hate this place. I don't want to be here anymore...

Suddenly... a heard a loud noise. It sounded like a blaster shot ... and then a loud whir. I couldn't pinpoint the noise because I had never heard anything like it before. The main entrance opened and I saw the guards in front of the door lying dead on the floor with their hands off. Shit, what's going on now?!
A boy entered the hall. He had red hair and a small droid on his back. He was holding in his hand ... a blue lightsaber. He is a Jedi ... Or he took off the lightsaber of a corpse ... But how should he know how to use it for his protection and in combat.
"Hey you, down here!"

I try to draw his attention to me

I try to draw his attention to me. He'll definitely get me out of here fighting the empire. His droid noticed me first and beeped excitedly at him.

The boy looked around and asked "Where?"The droid beeped again and the boy looked down at me."Here" I replied and smiled pleadingly."Get me out of here, please" I looked at him for help.
"Sure, I just have to find the control board."I point to the end of the aisle."It is there in your right side. You have to press the button with the three on it." The boy followed my instructions and helped me out of my cell.

"Thank you ... damn it, I wouldn't have been able to keep it up long ... "I looked at him gratefully." By the way, I'm (y / n) "I held out my hand to him. He happily accepted it and said" I'm Cal, Cal Kestis and that", he pointed at the little droid on his shoulder, "that's BD-1."
The little droid beered at me.
"Why are you  here on Zeffo?" Cal looked at me questioningly, walked towards the exit and asked me to follow him. "Actually I can't remember..." As we walked through the corridors of the Imperial Building I looked through the windows I had a brief view of the surroundings outside the building.
While we were walking I took a closer look at my "savior".  He was a little taller than me.  Red hair, broad shoulders... He already looks really nice. "Sorry for asking, but how are you?" He turned " "I just told you I" " Yeah I know that your name is Cal Kestis, but my question was 'Who are you?" "Well I as you probably allready noriced, I'm a Jedi. And who are you?" "Like I said before, I can't really remember...All I know that I once was a part of the Rebellion." "Well than I'm sure you'll be a big help in our cause." He smiled and turned back around and keept on walking.Cal started talking but since I walked behind him I didn't quit understand what he was saying, but  something about a Mantis...Whatever that is. "We need to move on if we want to get to the Mantis as soon as possible." "Sorry...but whats a MAntis." He laughed and put his hand on the back of his head" You'll find out soon enough."

On the way back Cal became more and more nervous. "Something is wrong." So when we arrived at an area with a door and it was also covered by a large rock. Also ther was a strange looking Droid how was waiting for something. He is was not controlled by a human being."(y / n) Hide ... now "Cal looked at me with tension. I did as I was told and hid myself. The fight started. Cal fought his way through but then his opponent was a grenade that gave off the electronic noise. He beat in ko He grabbed me with ease and carried me to his ship, only to get me to sleep there too.
