Chapter I
The Young Jedi Knight
How long it had been… When she accepted to be part of the Republic's army she had not realized they had wanted her to be in charge of special operations. She had lost seven clone troopers and now had only three of them left. She accepted the offer she was given to have non-clone member who wanted to fight for the Republic join her team. There were now fifteen members of this spec-ops force including herself.
Shara Kall paused in thought.
Her colonel was himself a former Jedi. Pock Zin had left the Jedi Order because he knew that the life of a Jedi was hard and also felt that it was not meant for him, but because he was close to the Jedi he was allowed to visit them at the Jedi Temple whenever he wished. The Council also allowed him to join them in the war. Then there was Maxx, her commander, who was the most unusual of the clones. Maxx was not only a former member of the 501st legion, he was the only Force-sensitive clone trooper in the entire galaxy, and, even more than that, her closest living friend. She may have even felt connected to him in some ways but she couldn't afford that kind of attachment… Especially because she was a Jedi.
"Shara…"
It was Pock. "I'm sorry Pock is something wrong?"
Suddenly she remembered where she was: in her room in the Jedi Temple.
"No, I just wanted to be sure you were ok," he paused. "You seemed out of it like you were lost or confused."
Shara sighed and said, "No I was just thinking."
"Ok. By the way I came up to see how you were doing today. Maxx said that you were shot twice in the leg yesterday."
Shara and Maxx along with five other members of the team had captured a Separatist base on Mirial for Master Windu. She was the only one who had serious injuries from the battle no one else was hurt.
"Yeah I'm fine though."
The next morning Shara met with Master Yoda to discuss some problems she was having as a general, a JedI, and a friend.
"Interesting this is," said the green, ancient, small, grandfather-like Jedi Master
"Master, I'm not sure but I think I may be starting to feel attachment to and fearing for some of the people I'm fighting along side of."
"Shara, attachment and the fear of loss is a path to the Dark side… jealousy you cannot have as a Jedi."
"How do I avoid attachment Master Yoda?"
"Train yourself to let go of all loss you fear."
Back in her room…
Shara looked at her things. Her light saber that was one of a kind referred to as the "blue dark saber" because it was in many ways the same as the dark saber that had been stolen from the Temple long ago when Master Yoda was under 700 years old.
She had been given this saber by the Jedi Master who trained her, Master Mace Windu, after she completed the Jedi trials. Master Windu had received the blue dark saber from Master Yoda after he was placed as the second highest in rank only to Master Yoda on the Jedi High Council.
She looked at holograms that had recordings of her now dead friends.
In the dining hall…
Shara was eating with Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, young Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, and Pock.
"So Shara, how was your mission to Mirial?" asked Skywalker.
"It was hard… there were only seven of us fighting there, and we destroyed every droid in that base."
"Don't forget you were shot," said Pock. Obviously not concerned with the fact that she hadn't said anything about that for a reason.
"You were shot?" asked Master Kenobi in surprise.
"Yeah but it's no big deal, I recovered within a day," she said giving Pock a small glare that only he could notice. Then continued with her meal.
In Pock's room…
"Pock, why did you tell them that I was shot?" Shara yelled. "I thought that after the incident with where Tol Skorr almost killed me you had learned not to tell details of my missions that I don't talk about!"
"Shara I'm sorry I won't let it happen again." That was the one thing Pock did that always really ticked her off, he always showed control over his emotions even though he was not a Jedi, even if every one around him was angry, sad, or afraid, he never showed signs of emotion. The only emotion that he ever showed to that the Jedi forbade was love. Unfortunately when Pock showed love it was almost always to her. It sickened her because he knew that she could not act on her feelings for him, she did love him, but she always told herself that it wasn't true, she did not love him.
On Gwori…
Not two days ago Shara was given orders to take her entire team to Gwori to search for three of Count Dooku's Dark Acolytes: Asajj Ventress, Jaxim Strall and Kaxin Paadd. These three Dark Jedi had caused a whole bunch of trouble for this team alone. Strall had sworn to bring Shara down as she had sworn to bring him down.
Don't worry. There is more comming. Please review. Please suggest ideas for later chapters.
Thanks, jaxist
