Chapter 1

A Jedi or a Sith?

Once again the sounds of lightsabers clashing echoed through the rolling hills of Adumar. Adumar was a lush farming planet in the outer rim territories mainly untouched by the Empire and even the Old Republic. A young human girl with long blond hair and hazel eyes lied on the ground straining with her green saber glowing inches from her face. Standing over her was a tall man with light blue scaly skin, he had dear like amber eyes and long white hair. His purple saber bore down on the girl as she struggled even more to keep her saber in the air as her strength waned.

"Please Master Jine you've won please stop!" the girl called out.

"Yes, yes, alright," the man said pulling away from the slightly injured girl. The man dropped the blade to his side but did not dare turn it off. Jaek Jine knew his padawan well and would never dare let his guard down about her. "Mala the force is strong with you, I feel it, you must use this strength to your advantage in combat," Master Jine told her. "Again!" he called once again readying himself for combat. Now having rested for a few moments Mala pushed herself to her feet. She waited a moment before attacking she let the grass of the field caress her bare feet she began by walking towards him and slowly speed up. Abruptly the sound of her naked feet scrapping across the damp grass stopped as she propelled the force through her body out her feet into the ground sending her flying over Jaek. She landed gently on the ground as Jaek turned surprised from head to toe Mala raised her blade to his neck.

"I win," Mala whispered to him not daring to take her blade away.

"That you have my apprentice," Jaek said turning off his blade and attaching it to his utility belt.

"Mala! Master Jine! Supper is on the table now you both come in and get it before it gets cold!" Mala's mother Mila called to them. The two walked inside Mala's father was reading his news pad. "You know dear the senate elections are coming up!" Mila called to him as he sit at the dinner table.

"Yea, well both of um are from the City and you know how I feel about them city folks!" Mala's father Famgi called back.

"Yes dear, it time for supper eat up before it gets cold," Mila called to him. Famgi put down the news pad, he was a tired old man you could see it in his eyes, cold dark eyes that seemed like a deep pool, not like his daughter her eyes were young and full of life. He had long dark hair that he pulled back into a ponytail. Mila then entered the dining room. She was carrying a large pot of stew, her arms were frail and it was difficult for her to carry the large pot, though her body never trembled her eyes showed her strength failing. Her long hair was pulled back in a bun and though she was only 40 she looked more like a 60-year-old woman.

"Let me help with that Mrs. Laga," Jaek said using his force powers to lift the pot out of her hands and onto the table.

"Thank you very much Master Jine," Mila said taking her seat.

"It's not a problem at all Mrs. Laga," Jaek said they were all very quiet during the dinner and it continued even after words.

"I'm going to take a shower," Mala said as they lounged around in the living room. She left to her room, as she entered the room she began to remove her clothes, first her vest, then her shirt, she admired her body in the mirror she was becoming very fit since her training with Jaek. She then removed her utility belt and then her pants. Finally she was in only her underwear she once again began to admire her own body feeling the firmness of her muscles. She removed her bra and panties and added them to the neatly folded pile of cloths and entered the shower, she began with cold water caressing her body it slowly heated loosening her knotted muscles. As the water pulsated over her tired body scraping off the sweet and dirt from her the door to her room opened standing in the door way was Master Jine. Mala had had a crush on her master for sometime now and the fact that she was now completely naked in front of him made her like him more maybe because of the fact that he could just walk in on her and not care about the consequences.

"Hello Mala," Jaek said to her upon entering the room.

"Master Jine!" Mala stuttered as she noticed him. In his culture this kind of meeting would be completely acceptable but obviously to her she was very surprised that he was there.

"I'm sorry should I go?" Jaek asked turning toward the door.

"No, it's fine master can you just not look at me it is a little strange in my society, for a man to just walk in on a woman bathing," Mala said stepping out of the shower alcove.

"Oh I'm terribly sorry for my people this meeting would have been totally acceptable," Jaek said softly.

"Oh, no it's not that this is unacceptable, it's just surprising," Mala said. She quickly toweled herself off and slipped on a robe. "I'm ready you can turn around," Jaek turned to see her.

"You look wonderful," Jaek said, as he looked her over.

"Master! Jedi cannot love," Mala said very surprised yet also happy he would say such a thing.

"I didn't say I loved you I said you look very nice. The reason I came was to make sure you are feeling alright, any problems at all please tell me," Jaek said walking up to his padawan.

"To tell the truth I have a stiff shoulder," Mala said sitting on a pillow that sat in the floor of the room, without speaking Jaek moved up behind her and slowly and pulled gently on the shoulders of her robe. Though hesitant Mala allowed her master to lower the robe off her shoulders. The shoulders of the robe fell to Mala's elbows as she held the robe to her chest. She felt Jaek's hands on her neck though scaly, his skin was warm and soothing on Mala's tired muscles. Slowly she felt his hands slip off her neck onto her shoulders and slowly work a knotted muscle. Without really thinking about it Mala let go of the robe and allowed it to fall off her upper-body. Jaek's hands continued to move lower and lower on her body finding knots in muscles she didn't know she had.

"Are you enjoying yourself?" Jaek asked Mala softly.

"Oh, yes master very much so," Mala moaned back as he finally worked out her last knot. "Thank you," Mala whispered pulling her robe back up to her shoulders.

"You're very welcome Mala, now get some sleep we have an early day tomorrow," Jaek said smiling at her. As he stood to leave he turned to Mala expecting the normal kiss on the forehead that was part of her cultures greeting and good bye, but rather Mala lifted herself onto her tip toes grabbed around Jaek's neck and kissed him softly on the lips they held the position for about a minute as Jaek slowly raped his hands around Mala holding her close. "What was that for?" Jaek asked softly holding her even closer. Mala couldn't speak she was far too embarrassed and even a little frightened to admit to her Master she loved him. "I told you, you can tell me anything, anything at all," Jaek said softly into her ear.

"I love you," Mala whispered. Jaek heard her very clearly but wanted to hear her truly admit it.

"What I couldn't hear you," he said back pushing her a little farther away from his body but still keeping her only about 3 inches from him.

"I love you," Mala said more clearly this time.

"You what?" Jaek asked pretending to be surprised.

"I love you. I'm deeply horribly madly in love with you. You, and only you, I want to spend the rest of my life with you," Mala said as pulled herself into Jaek's body and began to cry.

"Don't cry Mala," Jaek said pulling her away from his body and lifting her head.

"But, I can't love you its ageist the laws of the order," Mala said wiping away her tears.

"Ageist the laws of the Jedi order not ageist the laws of the Sith," Jaek whispered to her, "Now get to bed," he said lifting her setting her in bed and walking away before she could even speak. She was up early the next morning when Jaek came down the stairs with two large containers. "I have your things we're going," Jaek said to her as she exited the kitchen with a glass of water.
