It was a normal day so fare on Nar Shadda, the traffic noise and the many people walking around the streets not to mention all the criminal activities.
Many people would call Nar Shadda a bad place... which was true... but for Lukas, it was home. I was here he has lived since he could remember. He was 12 not that old... but he could handle himself. He didn't live a specific place... that was why Nar Shadda was not just his home planet, it was, in particular, his home.
He slept everywhere, the streets, roof even sometimes in the sewer systems, but he didn't go there very often because it was quite smelly. In the night he went to the cantinas not to drink but to listen to the stories. He heard all kinds of stories, about the Jedis and the Siths and the war which was going on between the Empire and The Republic.
Lukas found it fascinating, not the war but the Jedi's and Sith's and the way they were different from each other, Jedi's who were blocking their emotions... while Sith was using their emotions. Lukas was also fascinated about the light side and dark side of the force, but unfortunately, he couldn't find out much about it.
After a long night hearing story, he went home... but then a shot fired and it hit Lukas right in the leg. Lukas could hear voice behind him saying "Take him!" Lukas was helpless he couldn't run... he just laid on the street helpless. He had never been in this kind of situation before... and why was he even attacked?
He heard the man coming closer... Lukas closed his eyes ready to face death, but then he heard a man saying "Stop right there!" after that everything went black for Lukas...
Lukas woke up opening his eyes he saw an old man with long grey hair, "Where am I?" Lukas asked. The man looked at him and then smiled, "You are on board my ship." Lukas didn't understand... what did the old man mean? "What do you mean by on board of your ship?"
"You were attacked by a bounty hunter... I saved you from him and saw you were injured I took you to my ship to heal you." the old man said calmly. Lukas looked down at his leg and could not see the injury anymore... how did he do it? "How did you heal me?"
The old man smiled and then said "With the Force" Lukas got even confused at this point what did that man mean? "What do you mean by "The Force"? " The old man raised his hand and closed his eyes focusing on the bed Lukas was in, and within second the bed raised with Lukas in it.
And then it hit Lukas! "Are you a Jedi or a Sith?" Lukas asked. "I'm a Jedi Master, Lukas Jedi Master Humayun and I was on Nar Shadda for a mission to stop a famous bounty hunter I could use your help on the mission I have a feeling that you know Nar Shadda pretty well." the old man said. " I do know Nar Shadda well I have lived here for a long time, but how do you know my name?" Lukas asked. "Great, now get some sleep Lukas you need it" the old man said completely ignoring Lukas last question.
"Well, goodnight..." Lukas said and then he fell asleep.
