The Fire Girl Saga: Book One: The New Padawan

Here it is folks, my new series, The Fire Girl Saga. I'm not sure how far the series will go, depending on the reviews. Anyway, please enjoy and review!

Chapter 1

Obi-Wan sighed as he stared out the window of the Resolute. The Jedi Council had gave him and Anakin a mission, to rid the Sepratists on the planet Umbara. Once again, the enemy managed to regain control of the planet. Of all the planets he could have gone to, he was stuck with this planet… again.

He sensed his former apprentice walk up to him. "Can't believe we're back here again. This is Geonosis all over again!" (Watch season 2!) "As much as I don't like it either, we still have a job to do, we just have to be extra careful," Obi-Wan explained, the planet Umbara in front of them.

"Well, the Council wishes to speak with us right now," Anakin said. Obi-Wan turned around as his former padawan turned the communicator hologram thingy on, revealing Masters Windu, Yoda, Kit, and Plo. "Arrive at Umbara, have you?" Master Yoda asked. "Yes Master, our men are ready for battle as we speak," Anakin explained. "That is not all, Master Kenobi, we are sending you your new padawan right now." Master Windu said.

"Wait, padawan, we're getting ready for a battle, I'm not sure this is the best time!" Obi-Wan argued. "Dissagree with you, I do. Strong in the Force, she is, a great warrior as well too. Meet you on the surface of the planet, she will Master Kenobi," Master Yoda said in his old riddle voice. Obi-Wan sighed. "Very well, we'll meet her at our rendevouz point, make sure she has our coordinates." The Masters nodded, there holograms disappearing.

Anakin snickered behind him. "I hope your new padawan won't cause any trouble for you Master!" Obi-Wan groaned, remembering the trouble Anakin caused him. "Yes, but the question is, who is she? Tell our men to prepare for landing, we'll set up a temporary base until she arrives."

She sighed, waiting patiently for their ship to get out of hyperspace. She would finally get her new master, what was more amazing was that her master would be The Negotiater. She had heard the stories about him in the Temple, but she never thought she would become his apprentice. Their ship finally got out of hyperspace, revealing the planet her new master was waiting for her.

" Admiral, thank you for getting me here, I will take a gunship down now," she said, flipping her long red hair behind her. She walked down the hall to the hangar, thinking what her new master would think of her. She finally reached the hangar, entering the gunship that would take her down. "Pilot, take me down to coordinates A3-78- B7," she commanded.

Obi-Wan stared at the sky, watching for the ship that would bring his new padawan down. I hope she's nothing like Anakin, he thought to himself. All he knew was that his new padawan was female, strong in the force, and a great warrior. He then saw a ship approaching him. "I wonder what she's like?" Anakin asked, standing beside him. "We're about to find out," he said as the door opened. A figure jumped out, the ship leaving.

When she started walking toward them, they had no idea she would look like this. She was extremely tall, about 6 ft 8, making her taller than both of them. She wore black heeled combat boots, along with black track pants. She also wore a black spaghetti strap, not even bothered by the cold. What really stunned her was her hair. She had it in a tight ponytail, reaching at least to her butt, but the color stunned them the most, for it was this bright red, matching with her black clothing. She had two lightsabers on her belt, which was a light brown.

She now stood in front of them, towering over them. "Hello Master Kenobi, I'm your new apprentice, my name's Serena Mandre, it's an honor to meet you."

Obi-Wan stared up at Serena, looking into her bright green eyes. This is my new padawan? He thought. He read her report, she was a top notch padawan, always got good marks in class, he also heard that she was an amazing duelist, her skills almost matching Anakin's. "Well, it's nice to meet you at last, Serena. We're just getting ready to move out," He said. He noticed she wore an oval silver locket around her neck. Anakin then blurted out rudely. "Hey, don't the younglings call you Fire Girl?" Fire Girl? That was a strange nick name, Obi-Wan thought.

Serena smiled. "Yeah, believe me, it's a pretty reasonable nick name when you see what they mean."

She walked forward, turning to look at them. "Shall we get the men ready for battle?" She asked, continuing to walk forward Obi-Wan sighed. This wasn't going to be easy.

There you go, in the next chapter, they engage in a battle against the enemy, and Obi-Wan gets to witness Serena's combat skills, also her special ability, giving her the nick name Fire Girl. Review, or I will find you! (Goes on Internet and googles someone's name!) P.S: You say Serena's last name like this, MAN-DRE.
