Hello. Here's a new story with my one of my newest OCs, Jesse Minata. Hope you enjoy.

Jesse's POV

My name is Jesse Minata, I am ten years old and I live on Shili with my father. He has always been around for me and my aunt was the only mother figure in my life. I always wonder about my real mother: what she looked like, what she was like, everything. My father never told me about her. He just walked in.

"Hey, Jesse. What are you doing?"

"Nothing really. There isn't much to do. Without Auntie Jen, I haven't been told to do so many chores at once." My aunt, Jen, died when I was eight. She was nice, but she always told me to do so much stuff at one time.

"Jen was a saint. Bless her heart.

"Yeah." I thought I might ask him. "Dad?"

"Yeah, son?"

"I want to ask you about my mom."

"I've told you a lot about her. What's left you to know?"

"Well, you never told me what she even looked like or how old she is. I want to know." He walked over to his chair and sat down. I sat in front of him.

"Your mother was a beautiful young woman. You have her blue eyes. Her montrals were a little darker than your and went a little past her shoulders. At least when I last saw her they were. She always wore red. It was her favorite color. She wore a short red dress with grey leggings. Your mother was beautiful. In many ways, you look like her. Everytime I look at you, I see her. Reminds me how young she was when she had you. Only fifteen years old. Still a child. She doesn't know how lucky she really was to have a son like you."

"Why did she leave?"

"She had to. She wasn't allowed to have a child. She left to protect you."

"From what?"

"That's something for when you're older."

"You always say that. How long is older?" He stood up.

'When the time is right, I'll tell you. But for now, it will have to wait." He started coughing.

"Are you okay, Dad?"

"I'm fine, son. You're old man is just getting older. I have an appointment with the doctor. Make sure your room's clean when I get back."

"Alright."

"Good boy. I'll be back before dinner."

"Bye." He left. I tried to picture the description of my mother. I saw a woman with sparkling blue eyes, blue montrals, a short red dress that covered her neck and a gold necklace. Her dress went to her hips and grey leggings with holes along the sides. She had red boots that went up to the middle of her calves. She wore a belt with two metal things hanging from it. I didn't know what they were or why they appeared in my vision. There was a knock on the door. It was my neighbor, Mrs. Talze. She has always brought us dinner since my aunt died. She was a lonely old woman, but I liked her. She has always been so nice to us and we didn't want her to feel lonely.

"Hi, Mrs. Talze."

"Hello, Jesse. I brought dinner."

"I see. Let me help you with that." I took two of her baskets while she kept the last one.

"Thank you. You're such a nice boy. You remind me of your darling mother everyday. She was so sweet."

"Mrs. Talze, did you know my mother well?"

"Yes, darling. I took care of her while she was pregnant with you. She was so sad to have to leave you. She loved you so much. It broke our hearts."

"Do you know why she left?"

"Oh, yes. She couldn't keep you. She left to protect you from harm. She knew how dangerous it would be if you were to go with her."

"But why did she leave? Why was ir dangerous?"

"Oh, calm down. There's no need to get testy. Your father is to tell you that." She paused for a minute. "I see you still have that necklace she gave you."

"Yes. I never take it off. It's the only thing I have of her." The necklace she gave me was a thick black string with a green crystal. I've had it since I was born. I haven't taken it off since.

"She made that necklace herself. She wanted you to have something of her besides her looks."

"I wish I would've met her. There's so much I want to know about her."

"One day, you will meet her. I know so."

One Week Later

Mrs. Talze died a dew days ago. A lot of people in my village are getting sick, including my dad. He's been on bed rest for a week. I'm afraid he'll be next to go.

"Jesse, come here." I stood next to his bed.

"Yeah, Dad?"

"I fear I may not have long to live. I think it's best I tell you the truth... about everything."

"What do you mean?"

"I'm not your father. I took you in when your mother left. I'm her brother. I promised her I would raise you right."

"If you're not my father, then..."

"Your real father is dead. His name was Jan Minka. He was killed by an akul before you were born. He never even knew your mother was pregnant. He never knew about you."

"What about my mother?"

"Your mother may still be alive. When I am gone, I want you to go find her. You should be with her."

"But..."

"Listen to me, Jesse. Your mother is on Coruscaunt. Her name is Ahsoka Tano. She's a Jedi."

"A Jedi?"

"Yes. That's why she left. Go to Coruscaunt, find the Jedi Temple and you'll find her. There, you will find Ahsoka."

"What if she doesn't believe I'm her son?" He reached out and lifted the crystal on my necklace.

"This is all the proof you need to convince her. She made it for you. She'll know."

"But, I don't know exactly what she looks like. I've imagined her, but they're not good outcomes." He took the key he always kept around his neck and handed it to me.

"Open that cabinet." I unlocked the cabinet and saw a lot of stuff. "Get that holorecording."

"I took it out and handed it to him. "What is it?"

"I recorded this after you were born." He pressed the button and played the recording. There were a few people I knew and others I didn't. Mrs. Talze, my friend Lena when she was about two years old and my dad, or whoever he really was. Mrs. Talze and Lena were asleep. The camera set on a woman sitting up in a bed holding something in a blanket.

"Ahsoka, over here." She looked up at him and sighed.

"Put that away, Manny. I just gave birth."

"That's why I want to document this. You're lucky I didn't record the birth."

"Leave me and my baby boy alone."

"Well, what are you going to name him?" She looked at the baby in her arms.

"What Jan would've wanted: Jesse." The baby was me. He moved over me and I saw myself as a baby.

"Hey there, Lil Jesse. Welcome to the world. I'm your Uncle Manny. I'll be taking care of you from now on."

"Not by yourself, Man. I'm staying."

"What about the Jedi?"

"He's my baby. He's more important to me than the Jedi. Nothing's going to change that." The recording ended.

"Unfortunately, she had to go back after we were attacked by Separatists. They knew she was there, so she had to go, but she loved being with you."

"How old was I when she left?"

"Six month. She loved you and she still does. I want you to find. You belong with her now. And when you find her, tell her I love her."

My uncle died a few days later. I wanted to find my mother badly. He told me about a shuttle station a few miles from our village. He said it would take a few hours to get there. I took the credits he left for me and headed for the station.

And so the journey begins. Will he find her? Look out for the next chapter. R&R and vote on my poll for Best Villan.
