My Heart Skipped a Beat
Note- this is my first story, it takes place during "Heroes on Both Sides". I plan on a new chapter every week or every other week, depending on my schedule. Please Read and review! Every comment will be taken into consideration. Thanks so much!
Chapter 1- The Arrival
Lux's P.O.V
I couldn't believe it. Mother had finally done it. Republic people, in our home! A senator and jedi. Oh, lucky us. Mother claims they go "way back", "before the war", "very close friend", blah, blah, blah. That will never change what the Republic did to him. War or no war, they are the enemies, scum.
This war was about to heat up. Mother has been talking about some bill that will provide more droids to win the war. And she goes and INVITES some senators to come. They could tell the senate and they could create more clones to go up against the new droids.I just don't know what to think anymore. My whole world has gone upside down since this war has started.
I stood at the top of the stairs, waiting for them to arrive. I saw it inching toward us in the distance. The ship landed, and the door opened rather loudly. Mother walked out ahead, followed by four women, two of them maids, and called me.
"Lux, come down here and help our guests with their luggage, please."
I stood up and started walking down the stairs. Not happy that they were able to get here without causing trouble. I saw the Togruta female stop and stare, obviously just as unhappy as I was.
A brunette, most likely the senator, walked out in a orange dress and a hood on, carrying baggage. Mother gave her a little side hug.
"Padme, it so good to see you."
"Yes, how thing have changed since the last time we meet."
" Let's go inside, there's much to discuss."
"These are what Republicans look like? And a senator too! Well Lux, what did you expect?" I asked myself.
I bowed slightly.
"Please, allow me."
I reached down and took her luggage out of her hand. Mother put her hand on her back and walked off.
After her came a togruta female. My heart skipped a beat when she walked out. She had big sparkling blue eyes. Her smooth orange skin could have been passed almost for deeply tanned skin. She had white tattooed eyebrows that went up the middle of her forehead in a zig-zag all the way up to her head tails, on each side were two white diamond shapes, along with a shape on each of her cheeks. The white matched perfectly with her head tails, which were striped blue and white, and came down just below her shoulders. She had hard fingerless gloves on, reaching all the way up to her elbow. And on her arms over that were strips of fabric. All a rusty red coloring. She wore the same colored, sleeveless dress on. The collar when up her neck, and there was a opening over the middle of her chest, nothing too reveling. Her dress was more of a mini skirt, and she wore black leggings underneath. A belt hung from her waist, and she wore rusty red boots that came up to her knees. She had a purple patterned strip of cloth that hung from the middle of her belt and it came down a couple of inches below her skirt. A light saber hung from her belt as well.
She can't be a jedi. She's too…. innocent looking.
I practically lunged my hand at her baggage-
"Please, allow me."
I reached for her hand to take the luggage, brushing her hand slightly. Only for her to glare at me-
"I think I can handle it."
Oh Force. What did I do now?
She kept walking, following my mother and the senator. And I followed them inside. I had a feeling that this was going to be a very, very long week.
Note- Next week i'm going to put up this all from ashoka's P.O.V. Tell me what you think! :)
