The Force of the Heart
Chapter One
Aeriellia stepped out onto her balcony as she gazed at the night life of Coroscant. Ah, her home city was truly lovely. Still, as much as she loved the view, she could sense that something wasn't right. There was an odd disturbance in the air tonight, but she didn't know why.
She heard her automatic doors open and her Jedi master, Jonac Scout, stepped into the room. She gave him a small smile.
"Hello brother." she said, turning back to the lit up city.
Aeriellia and her brother Jonac shared some of Aeriellia's traits. Same brown hair, same thin figure, but their eyes differed greatly. Jonac has brown eyes that were like deep pools of a dark abyss. Aeriellia, however, had eyes that were a deep blue, dark and vivid at the same time. Eyes that both soothed and warned, healed and hurt, trusted and pushed away. They were uncertain, much like Aeriellia Scout herself.
Jonac walked out on the balcony to stand at his sister's side. "You weren't at the temple. You never reported in from your mission." he said flatly.
Aeriellia frowned, gazing out at the city lights that streched out as far as the eye could see. She sighed, "No master."
"Do you want to tell me why?"
"I said NO, master." Aeriellia said firmly.
There was a pause as hovercrafts zoomed past each other in the distance.
"Aeriellia..." Jonac sighed, turning to her, "What's wrong? Why didn't you report in? This isn't like you."
"I know..." Aeriellia said, pushing away from the balcony, annoyed with herself. "But it was a simple mission. They should know I got it done." she reached into the pocket of her brown cloak and pulled out a piece of paper. She read it aloud. "Cargo ship escorted. Took route to secure space. No incidents."
"Your missions are important to the council." Jonac insisted.
"No they're not!" she snapped, throwing her report to the ground and the air around her growing tense, "I'm an errand boy!"
Jonac took a careful step towards her. "Aeriellia...the council is just causious with you. You're still young and they think at times...unstable."
She frowned. It was true at nineteen Aeriellia was one of the youngest Padowan to graduate from the Jedi Achady. She was also one of the nose emotional Jedi the Council had seen since Aniken. Normally, that would only be a minor problem. Since showing feelings were against the Jedi code, many Jedi were able to learn to supress their feelings. But with Aeriellia the Force was strong. VERY strong. The Council had both been proud and worried since she enrolled in the achademy.
"Unstable..." Aeriellia repeated bitterly, "Just because I show how I feel. I'm not going to be the next Sith Lord."
"Master Skywalker is just causious." Jonac said with a shrug, "But please behave little sister. I went through alot to pursuade the council to allow me to train you. Please don't - are you listening?"
Aeriellia had turned away, staring at the dark sky that had no stars due to the light from te city.
"Aeriell-"
"Shhh!" She hissed. She could feel it. A disturbance in the Force. Something was wrong. "Don't you feel that?" Jonac frowned and before he could do anything Aeriellia was looking at him with a panicked expression. "Where's Master Skywalker RIGHT NOW?"
