Memoirs of a Jedi

Prologue
Three months before..
Sky tossed the rag down as he finished polishing his new ship, The Masenko. He had built it himself, from various parts and the layout of an old Noobian Fighter. The frame was almost exactly the same, except it was larger. He had not added a trench for an R2 unit, but had cleared that space out and added room for passengers. Behind that room, was another, smaller one. In it, was the secondary gunnery controls. He had added a retractable ion cannon under a panel in the tail. As he began to head back up to his quarters, his hour of free time almost up, Sky glanced over at his beat up old X-Wing, The Spider. He couldn't keep himself from smiling, he and that X-Wing had been through a lot.
"Come on, Sky, we gotta report back in two minutes!" his best friend, Kat, called. She ran up the flight of stairs and looked back into the hangar.
"Hold on.. I just wanna see something.."
"I wanna find Jake before we have to start!" She protested.
"I still don't know what you see in him, but whatever floats your boat.." Sky humoursly replied.
"Hangar Door... Transparent." He commanded.
The Hangar Door shimmered and became clear to reveal the vastness of space, dotted with twinkling stars. Many ships floated nearby, hanging in the space above Coruscant.
"What a view..." Sky said. He was always impressed by it.
"Take a photo, it'll last longer... plus you can look at it during training. Come on" Kat instructed.
Sky walked slowly up the stairs, peeling off his flight suit to reveal his training robes. He glanced back down and his belt floated up to him. Sky tied it around his waist and secured the lightsaber hilt, the hurried down the hall.
