I stay up with Ciren for most of the night and finally return to my room to sleep for a few hours. The alarm wakes me up and I stretch and roll out of bed. "Morning guys. Ready for the big day?" Hren rubs her eyes and nods whilst yawning. Jalena and Trene also nod and we freshen up fairly quickly before walking out the door. "Follow me guys. We're going to the common room to meet up with the boys before heading out to the meeting." We all walk into the common room where I see Ciren, Brenak, and Jolens. "Morning!"
"Hey good morning." Brenak responds. Seconds later, we are called to the Jedi Council Chamber. We walk there with a droid as our guide. We arrive outside the gray door with flashing lights on the outside.
"R2-49." Mace's voice says from the inside. "Send Jalena in." I cross my fingers, sending a small smile towards Jalena who nervously walks inside. I hear muffled voices under the door, sometimes going higher pitched meaning Jalena was answering some question. She walks out moments later with a lady with an orange face and blue chevron lines on two horn like things. She smiles at me and walks off. "Brenak and Trene." The same things occurs. Brenak walks off with a strange creature who is white and a straight growth on his head. Trene walks off with a blue lady. "Jolens and Hren."
"Good luck Hren." Moments later, Hren walks out with a woman with a green face who appears very kind. Jolens walks out with another woman, who has strange things coming out of her head.
"Ciren."
"good luck Ciren. Please be careful."
"I always have been, Kiria." He enters and I hear a few whispers and then questions. Finally, Ciren walks out with Mace Windu!
"Kiria." My name. I take a deep breath and walk through the gray, foreboding door. I look around the room to see strange creatures and humans sitting in rather comfortable chairs. Windows overlook the planet where cars are flying in air. I step into the middle of the room and gasps are heard from everywhere.
"Yoda, could she be the one?" The person who had called my name asks. Yoda nods. Then the questioning begins. "How old are you?"
"17."
"When did you discover your powers?"
"I discovered my powers when I turned 13. I knew something was different about me when I was able to call my phone to my hand by just thinking about it. From then on, I began honing my skills to what they are today."
"and what are your powers?"
"I can levitate, move things with my mind, influence people, read minds, learn extremely fast, have complete accuracy with weapons, make people forget their past or alter their memories, see people's souls and intentions, call things to my hand, and prophecy the future. I can also see events through others' eyes."
"Do you have any attachments to people?" I hesitate. If they know...
"I miss my parents on earth." They nod, understandingly. "But one attachment I have here with me." One eyebrow raises. "Hren. She is my best friend and I care deeply for her." I decide to hide my attachment with Ciren. The jedi all whisper together, conversing about me while I try not to satiate my curiosity.
"Kiria Shano. You are clearly powerful. I have never seen The Force so powerful in one individual. Your clothing is clear. Black and white is a clear sign of what we have been waiting for. You will work with Master Yoda, the Grand Master. I bow low to the Jedi Council. "Kiria, you must be careful. Evil forces will want you. There is a reason we hid you on earth. That is one place that no one would look. Al-Semar and Sharna hid you there for us." I nod, not getting any of this at all. "You are different and more powerful than the rest of your friends." My eyes widen. "You are one of the foreseer's."
I'm a what???? My brain rings with a thousand questions. "Th-Thank you." I follow Yoda out to the hall. "Master? A Foreseer?"
"Calm, you must be. Explain, I will." Yoda pauses for a moment. "A Foreseer, you are. A purpose, you will serve. But, the force, first you must learn."
"Yes master." I follow Yoda down the halls I had traveled only an hour before. We walk without speaking, passing several young jedi who stare incessantly. The halls seem hallowed now, as if there is a measure of things in them I cannot even begin to understand.
"In here, please come." A dark door with a symbol of a crystal stands out in the hallway. Yoda opens it with a wave of his hand, and we enter. It is dark, except for the glow of what seems like a thousand crystals! "Make your lightsaber, you must. Find first, your Kyber crystal." I nod and walk towards the center of the room. "Sit and concentrate, padawan. Come to you, it will." I sit in the middle of the room and close my eyes. Just like I do on earth, I concentrate on nothing but peace. I feel a power flowing through me and soon two things fly into my hands. I hear a gasp behind me and as I open my eyes, I stare down at what I have. Two crystals. One is pure white and the other is a swirl of blue and white.
"The prophetess, you truly are. A sign, this is." We leave the kyber crystal room and walk into an adjacent room with multiple parts. "The same, you do here." I nod, close my eyes, and concentrate on fitting each part of my lightsaber together. When I finish, I open my eyes. I now have a pure white lightsaber and a double blade lightsaber that is blue on one side and white on the other. I try them out, calling them to my hand.
I'm the one that is supposed to protect, fight, and prophecy the future? Ok, here we go!
