I am back! Yes I am here again with my next story! Alright so with this being my final week of school and I decided to pleasure you all with what will probably be the longest story I write… yet. At the same time, I know you guys have expressed concern for Sasha always getting hurt and such. In this story, we will see how her allergy becomes either her greatest weakness or her greatest strength during this mission! Oh also, I will be doing something new where I will provide a short summary of the chapter before and a bit of a sneak peak of the chapter you're about to read. But it will start in the next chapter.
Now read, enjoy, and review! (RER)
Chapter 1- The Incident
Going swimming in the summer is the best way to beat the heat and the best part of the year, but on Coruscant all pools are indoors and year round, plus it never gets hot enough outside anyway. However in this time of war, the Jedi are lucky to have a day to chill at the pool. Today is one of those days for Jedi Masters Obi-wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, Jacen Par, and their padawans.
The group was at the Temple's pool. Jac, Anakin, and Cayden, in plain colored board shorts, were having a diving contest off the jumping rocks. Sasha, in a purple swim top and black board shorts, and Ahsoka, in a beige bikini, were sitting on the edge, feet in the water, watching them. Obi-wan was sitting on the jumping rocks in blue board shorts psyching out the others and distracting them from their dives.
Anakin was about to do a front flip when Obi-wan made the call of a Gundark. Startled, Anakin slipped, grabbed Obi-wan's wrist, and yanked him into the pool after him. The others laughed. Resurfacing, Anakin glared at Obi-wan.
"You messed up my dive!" Anakin cried.
Obi-wan smiled. "And it was worth it."
"Vape you Kenobi," Anakin said before splashing him.
Obi-wan laughed then splashed Anakin before swimming away.
"Oh no, you don't." Anakin chased after him.
The others continued to laugh. They swam in circles. They came to a halt Obi-wan almost kissed the boots of their visitor. Looking up, Obi-wan and Anakin saw the pale skinned, long neck Jedi Master Irin Dak'win.
"Master Kenobi," Dak'win said in a sophisticated accent.
Obi-wan pulled himself out of the water and stood.
"Master Dak'win, is there something you require?" Obi-wan asked in his council manor.
"Yes, may we speak alone?" Irin asked.
"Of course." He turned to the others. "Excuse me."
Dak'win and Obi-wan moved away from the pool.
The moment Sasha saw Master Dak'win she knew what was to come.
"Hello Sashy," a perky, high pitched voice said above Sasha.
There's only one person who calls me that. "Hello Aurora," Sasha grumbled as she looked up.
Aurora Nittet, Master Dak'win's padawan, is a skinny girl with blue skin and purple hair. She was a Pantoran. Ever since they were younglings, she has picked on Sasha. Thankfully though, her posse spilt up after they were picked for padawan hood. But Aurora continued to pick on her. Even on the two missions they went on together, she picked on her. After the second mission, Master Zane found Sasha crying because of Aurora. She barely saw her much after that. But her annoyance of Aurora was still there.
"Can I talk to you?" Aurora asked. She looked at Ahsoka. "Alone."
"Nah, I think I'm good here," Ahsoka said. Sasha had told her what Aurora had done to her. Aside from Zane, she's the only other one who knows.
"It's okay Ahsoka, I can handle her," Sasha said.
"Alright," she said. "I'll be right over there if you need me." She dove into the water and swam to Cayden.
Sasha stood. The last time she saw Aurora she was about an inch taller than her. Now Sasha towered over her. Sasha smirked.
"Look who's grown," Aurora joked.
"Look who shrunk," Sasha shot back.
Aurora glared then sighed. "I am so tired of all this bickering between is. I think it's time we put all of it aside and become friends."
"Friends?! You've bullied me since we were five! Why now do you decide to apologize, and not back after the incident during the bomb mission?!" Sasha exasperated. "Or when you gave me food poisioning?! Or how about when you replaced my shampoo with purple hair dye!?"
Aurora giggled. "We were children back then and I have matured over the past few years. As well I seen the error of my ways. And I'm sorry." She sounded like she meant it. "And as a token of my apology and hopeful friendship, I made you this."
She pulled out a necklace from her belt. It was a beautifully hand made one at that. It had a slight greenish color to it, but other than that it was rather nice. Sasha wanted to believe this is a trap, but sadly she was sort of drawn to the handmade jewelry.
"Here I'll put it on you," Aurora said.
Before Sasha could protest Aurora came behind her and placed the necklace around her neck. Stepping away to look at it, Aurora smiled.
"It looks beautiful on you," she said.
"It kind of itches," Sasha stated as she scratched at the skin around the necklace.
Suddenly the itching became burning. Sasha gasped as she tried to pull off the necklace. It burned her hand too. Next thing she knew she was falling then SPLASH! Her lungs were on fire as she struggled to get the necklace off, and the water entering her system wasn't helping either. Before she knew it, all of the world was black and the sound of a distance splash.
I know I'm evil for ending the first chapter with a cliffhanger. But I promise that with story I will update as often as I can, since well summer is here. PLEASE REVIEW!
