Suffering can be worse than death. Waiting for the sentence is worse than the most cruel tortures.
The young girl was laying on the sofa in one of the many living rooms in Serenno Manor, pretending to be asleep. In the armchair next to her head was sitting a handsome white skinned woman, watching something on the mobile HoloVid.
Girl opened her eye. Asajj's hand automatically kept her lightsaber. The girl slowly sat and looked on the sparkling monitor, on the slim models presenting the newest fashion from Coruscant.
Please, something happen!-she thought
It haven't been long time since she had left safe Jedi Temple to become a healer in one of the battle hospitals, far away from Coruscant. Everyone knew that she was too young to act so responsible role, but war had taken so many Knights that padawans had to take their places without proper training or trials.
She was excited. In her imagination she saw herself saving thousands of the Republic's soldiers, helping citizens and fighting with enemies or convincing them to change their minds. She nearly saw herself coming back as a glorious Knight or (thinking about it she dropped a tear) as a beautiful and sad memory of her brothers in arms.
In fact she deserved for that. She was a talented healer with head full of ideas, and even the most bloody battle couldn't break her. With the same devotion she helped private and general, citizen or soldier. She would have been embarrassed if someone had told her that interview with her become a hit in the HoloNet. Jedi Star Healer was mentioned in Senate's debate and even Supreme Chancellor personally congratulated the Council so amazing appearance. Republic really needed a young, innocent hero. In her own opinion she didn't do anything special. She wasn't good in negotiating or combat o she tired to fulfill duties of the Jedi Knight as she could.
The war in the region ended, her RIMSU was moving to the next planet. She was staying on the trap of the spaceship when little girl ran to beg for help. Her family came back too early and her mother was injured by a separatist's straggler. It wasn't a long way but young healer had never come back. When she went on the backyard of the ruined house she really saw injured woman lying on her back. Her eyes was wide with fear. The injury wasn't serious, but the woman wasn't shoot.
-Ok, act quickly and don't move too fast. I really don't want to kill anyone.
She turned slowly to face Asajj Ventress, White Sword of the Sith. Woman was staying casually, keeping crying girl.
-Your sword for that girl.
She gave her what she wanted, preparing herself for a death.
-Not so easy Star Healer- she switched her blaster- sweet dreams!
It was a week or day ago?
Asajj, please, tell something, or I'll start shouting!
-You shouldn't wear brown, you looks like your own aunt. There's nothing special for me this season, but that pink dress would really suit you, wouldn't it?
