Authors Note:

I make zero defence, this very well might turn into a Mary Sue, PwP and likely self insert. I have no shame left. I do also wish to add that as of TLJ, the location for the Temple Luke trained Ben and a dozen others was never disclosed. Due to the lovely ability of Wookieepedia, I am making an assumption that it is on Gatalenta. There isn't much detail that I have been able to find about the planet, so everything I describe of it is pure speculation.

Now on with it!

Minute spelling errors, page breaks, and repetitive sentences fixed.

Little Bri always dreamed of visiting the stars or delving into oceans deep. She dreamed of places beyond her own, and the technology was growing around her to develop her dreams into a reality. Little Bri, tender at the age of 8, was the daughter of a technological mastermind of Earth, and although unorthodox, often would volunteer herself to no avail. Until one night, her father woke her from a deep sleep.

"Bri, babygirl…" She groaned back. "Bri-Bri, baby. Wake up, Daddy has something important for you." She lolled her head over to look at him, eyes cracking open as she was picked up from bed. She remembers the feeling of him running, of being carefully, albeit haphazardly, thrown into a car and being buckled in place. "You know how you always wanted to help Daddy's experiments?"

Little Bri nodded sleepily. "Yeah, Daddy." Her quiet voice reminded him of bells as she spoke.

"Well, Daddy needs your help. Daddy's new machine, remember the one that I said would change the world as we know it?"

"Yeah."

"Daddy's bosses doesn't believe it will work. I need your help to prove them wrong." Her head cocked to the side in curiosity.

"But Daddy, I donno. I am not as smart as you are, what if I mess up?"

"Don't worry Bri. All you have to do is sit there." The car rolled to a stop, and she remembers next being snuck inside of the Government facility he worked at. Bri remembers being sat down on a platform with some machine hanging above her. To her, it looked like a big blue ring that grew to have a growing black circle in the middle.

"Daddy…? I'm scared. What are we-" And then, darkness. Darkness, and wind...Wait… Wind? And waves? Bri heard crashing of waves nearby. She felt mist sting her eyes the more she blinked. Groggy, she called out, "Daddy?" She couldn't hear his voice.

She panicked. She screamed, and cried and looked around. It was cold. Where was she? How did she get here? Her voice became more and more hoarse the more she cried. She couldn't see, it was too dark. She heard voices. Unfamiliar voices, but it was someone!

"Please! Help me! Daddy!" Her sobs became uncontrollable as the voices went silent for a moment.

"Calm, young one." A voice said. She turned her heard around in as many directions as she could before she seen a tall, male silhouette with a hood. "Calm, little one. Easy now." She listened to the voice. It was a little deep, but full of wisdom. Suddenly her tears stopped as a wave of something she couldn't describe wash over her. "Calm, little one. Are you alone?"

"D-Daddy! He put me on a table an' - an' now I am here!" She tried to level out her breathing, her nerves eased now that she was found by someone.

"What is your name? Do you know where you are?" The voice asked.

"N-No. My name is Brianna Smith. I wanna go home!" She started to prattle off the address down to the state, just like Mommy and Daddy taught her, when the voice cocked its head at her. All was silent for a few moments save for her ragged breathing and she started to feel fuzzy and woozy. "I wanna go home, please."

"I don't know if I can help you get home right now. It's too dark. It will get colder soon. I will carry you to my home, and we will rest there until we can look in the day. Alright, Brianna?"

Bri nodded largely. "Please, sir. I just wanna go home."

"We will find a way, Brianna. Have faith in that." The voice picked her up, his arms warm and thick. But one hand felt funny. It felt cold, and thin.

"Sir, what is your name?" She asked, propping her chin on his shoulder, tired as though she missed every nap she ever had in her life.

"You can call me Luke, Brianna. Luke Skywalker."

"Thank you, Luke." And with that, sleep overcame her.

Luke, along with his students and nephew, Ben, began making the trek back to their Temple, when a bright flash of light beamed down not far from where they were just night-fishing.

"Uncle - Er, Master Luke. What is that?" Ben stopped dead in his tracks, being the first to notice it. "Look, there's light." Young Ben, who stood barely chest high on Luke, tugged at his robe to stop him, and pointed. The beam was still there when Luke looked, and his wild brows furrowed. His students started speaking among themselves, young as they were, with confusion and excitement, making guesses as to what it was before the beam of light dimmed away.

"Padawans, continue onwards to the Temple. Stay silent and stay vigil, when you get there continue preparing the meal." He started walking, and noted that they were frozen for a few moments. "Go, go now." He urged them as he started making a jogging pace towards the shore.

He found a weeping mess of a young child, not too much younger than his nephew, with light brown hair, pale skin, and a sharp button nose. Through the puffy eyes and tears he seen hazel eyes with green specks. He used the Force to soothe the child, piercing through her sadness, confusion and fear to get to the heart of her worries and dove into her mind. He had never heard of a place called Washington, let alone a street called Apple, but he seen that she had truth in her words. They were real to her, but how? There was not a place in the Galaxy he knows of similar to what he seen in her head, not even the most remote and far off planets. He carried her to the Temple, a dangerous decision, but Luke sensed something inside of her. He sensed the Light within her, untouched and innocent. He couldn't leave her now. What he sensed shook him too deep to leave her there. It reminded him of someone…. She fell asleep as soon as he picked her up.

The others were confused, but he ordered them to be silent, and to not worry. But Ben knew better. As he was typing a message on his datapad, Ben approached him.

"Uncle. I know you are not telling us something." Luke sighed and tried to come up with a response, but was cut off by young Ben. "I see it too. She's good, why are you scared Uncle Luke?" His dark eyes lit up with curiosity and hope.

Luke knelt down to meet his nephew eye level. "The Force works in strange ways. I have to make sure what I do is what the Force wants. And right now, the voice of the Force is silent when I seek answers about her. I am scared because I do not know what I should do."

Ben seemed to accept this answer with a nod, and went back to the group for dinner.

Luke meditated as he awaited a response on his datapad. He sent message to his confidant, Lor San Tekka, and his sister Leia for guidance. He told them everything he knew, everything he felt and saw. Who was this child? How did she get here? It seems whenever his path seemed clear, albeit daunting, there's yet another task thrown at his feet.

He came here to train his students, and his young nephew. The humble place he had built here was protected and hardly anyone knew about the location on this planet, Gatalenta. As far as he could ensure, no one knew they were even there. Deep within a cave, there was a clearing among the cracks in the layers of the planet. Quiet and secluded, he knew it would have been a perfect location to train the would-be Jedi. He built hut after hut, clearing after clearing, with the aid of his padawans, for his Temple. Thinking upon all his progress up to this point in his life, he looked down at the chip of the Great Tree that hung around his neck. Sighing, he looked back at the strange girl sleeping on mats along with the others as his datapad rang.

It was his sister. He stepped outside and answered the call. "Well, what do you think?"

"I think she was put here for a reason. Whatever the cause, whatever the reason, this girl needs your guidance. You know I do not know as much of the Force as you, brother, but I do know it does not do things needlessly. Do you know if she knows about the Force?"

"Not from what I could see. When I read her mind, it had no trace of knowledge of this planet, this island, let alone the Force. It is as if she came from another Galaxy entirely." Luke said in a hushed tone.

Leia hummed, thinking. "She needs your help more than I thought. I heard once, in my own private research, about those with the Force using it to wipe memory and replace them with their own made up memories, but in some cases the original memories eventually come back. I do not know of a person with enough power to do so alive now. Have you thought of speaking to the Council of Mothers?"

"I have. But I am trying to do that as a last resort. This girl has much power within her, I do not wish for it to go unchecked and untamed. She has potential." Luke looked back at the group. "As much potential, I feel, as Ben."

"Do whatever you think is best. I am afraid I do not have any advice I can give you, as someone who can feel the Force. But, as a mother, I do know she needs her parents. She is afraid and in a place totally alien to her. Be patient with her. I will send a ship with supplies that might help you with her. You mentioned she had nothing of her own on her, correct?"

"Yes, not even a bag."

"I thought so. I will keep it simple, since I know you will be training her alongside your other students. You did allow them a few personal items, so will she as well." Leia had a smug smirk on her face.

"How do you figure I will train her?" He raised his brows at his sister. "Am I that predictable?"

"You're my brother, Luke." Leia tilted her head to the side, giving him a look. "Of course you're predictable to me. The ship will arrive in two days, hopefully she will be alright that long."

"Fair enough." He smiled and bit back a small laugh. "I will inform her when she wakes. I am awaiting a transmission back from Lor San Tekka, and hopefully he will offer some further guidance with her. Rest well, sister."

"Rest well, brother."

The transmission ended, his sisters face faded from the datapad. He leaned back against the wall of the hut, looking up to the sky above. "Master Yoda, if only you were here. You'd know what to do." His datapad rang again, this time it was a written message from Lor San Tekka.

"Jedi Master Luke Skywalker,

With the information you have sent me, I can offer no council. I am at loss what could be done, but be vigilant and careful. We do not know what Darkness may have brought her, or what her purpose is. If she has as much Light as you say, she could be the future of the Jedi Order. Keep me updated about her, and I will try looking for anything in the old Jedi texts for guidance.

Best of Luck.

Lor San Tekka."

"Well, that is that, I suppose." Luke sighed and went to head back inside for the evening meal. It appeared he had no choice but to train the girl, and offer her what support he could.

The next morning, Luke awoke before anyone else, and walked over to Brianna. He gently woke her, asking her to walk outside with him.

"Mister Luke, am I going home? Have you found Mommy and Daddy?" She looked up to him with hope in her eyes, just like Ben did. Luke had to swallow, preparing himself for what he was about to tell this little girl.

"Brianna, I can answer those questions, but first I have to ask you some of my own." He stroked his growing beard. "You really don't know where you are, do you?"

"No…" Her voice was quiet, and meek.

"I will tell you. You are at a place called Gatalenta. I know you haven't heard of it before, young one, so be at peace. I do not expect you to know all of what I say, so do not worry." He assured her. "Gatalenta is a planet." Her head tilted to the side and her lip started quivering. "I do not know what your father was doing with the machines he was building, but I can tell you it was the machine that brought you here. I do not know what the machines purpose was, nor how it works." He watched as her lip quivered, and eyes welled with tears. He reached out with the Force to enforce the calm environment he was trying to build with her, and was met with no resistance. "There is much that you do not know about this place, and I will teach you. I will show you how to survive, and how to fend for yourself. I will show you how to protect yourself."

"But… But…" Confused, Brianna had no clue how to respond. "But Daddy…."

"Daddy sent you here with the machines. I think he wanted you to experience this place. This world and what is has to offer. I will guide you, but you have to trust me. There's lots of other kids here who can be your friends, and help you learn…." Luke took a deep breath. "Brianna, do you trust me?" He outreached his hand to her. With sweaty palms, she reached and shook his hand as he hoped he would.
