Hello there! This is a partner story to my other stories: In A Jedi World: Book 1 and In A Jedi World: Book 2: The Sith Lords.
I would advise you to read them first as this may make no sense other wise.
This story takes place in KOTOR 1. It's a Self Insert. Again, please read the other two books first, if you haven't already.
ENTRY ONE:
Dear Diary.
Mission gave me this Datapad so I decided that I would make it my diary for while I'm here. Today was my first day at the temple and I met a few padawans my age, and my new Jedi Master.
I was standing in front of a doorway. I was wearing a Jedi Padawan robe that I was given. I was standing outside the door of my new sleeping room. I was trying to work up the courage of opening the door up and walking in.
I guess you could say that I was nervous. I couldn't help but wonder what they would think of me. It's not every day that a new girl comes to the Jedi Enclave and joins them, considering I'm kind of old to join the Jedi, being 14 and all.
I took a breath and held my hand over the door pad. I just had to press the button and walk in. Meet the other Jedi padawans and just pretend that I'm from this galaxy. Easy peasy, right?
Yeah. Sure it is.
I was about to press the button on the door (or at least planning to) when the door opened by itself. Well, not really. Someone was standing there at the door inside.
It was a togruta girl. She looked like Ahsoka from the Clone Wars series but different still. She orange skin and had white patches on her cheeks and around her green eyes.
"Oh, hello?" she said to me, not sounding surprised.
I suppose that she would have already sensed me standing there. I can't wait until I learn that!
"Hi…" I started, feeling shy all of a sudden.
"I haven't seen you around here before." The togruta said to me.
"Yeah. I'm new. I'm supposed to stay in here." I told her waving my hand at the room. She was standing in the doorway and I couldn't see if there were other people in there.
I really need to learn how to sense for people.
"New?" The girl asked, her voice curious, "Oh, come in. I'm Lianna. Lianna Tosk." She introduced herself.
"Nice to meet you, Lianna. I'm Reese, Reese Aryen." I told her and when she moved out of the way, I could see in the room.
There were a few other people in there but Lianna grabbed my wrist and led me over to a bed that had two other people sitting talking.
One was a girl who looked younger than me but not by much. She was human and she had a greyish hair colour.
The other was a boy Rodian. He had green skin and big black eyes.
Lianna made me sit down on the bed and she sat down next to me.
"Guys, this is Reese Aryen. She's new to the enclave." Lianna introduced me.
The girl smiled and said, "Hi. I'm Sinah Quell and this is Toman." She told me.
"Nice to meet you." I said to them.
"So who's your master?" Toman asked me in basic.
"Umm… I'm not sure yet." I answered.
Jiniah tilted her head, "What do you mean you don't know yet? Oh! Did your old master die? I'm so sorry!" she gasped.
"What?" I asked her then it hit me. They thought that I was from the Jedi Temple on Coruscant! "No! No. I mean that I am actually new here. To being a Jedi." I explained.
Lianna frowned, "Aren't you a bit old to start Jedi Training now?" she asked me.
I pushed a few strands of my brown hair from my face to behind my ear, "Yeah. I guess that Bastilia convinced them to train me some how." I told them.
Lianna nodded but I just got the idea that she was still curious. Sinah also looked curious, but… I just got a bad feeling off Toman. I don't think he liked me.
Suddenly the door opened and a human boy walked over to us. He had short black hair and green eyes. He looked at me and smiled. He looked to be my age.
"Hello." He said to me as he walked closer, "I'm Jonah Smith." He introduced himself.
Smith? That's an awfully Earth sounding name.
"You must be Reese Aryen." He continued. How did he know that? At my nod, he continued, "Sasha Ortiz wants you." He told me.
"Oh. Ok. Where is she?" I asked him.
"In the court yard. She's waiting for you." He told me. I nodded and he went over to a bed on the opposite wall and opened a footlocker up and was doing something.
I waved a good-bye to Lianna, Sinah and Toman. They waved back, except Toman, and I left the room. I knew the way out because I was shown and the game had shown me too.
But when I got out into the court yard I realized something. I had no clue what so ever who Sasha Ortiz was. I don't know what she looks like. She could be human or an alien.
I glanced around the courtyard and sighed. Well. This was just great. Then I heard a kind voice behind me saying, "You seem a bit lost."
I turned around to see a male Jedi. He had grey hair and was wearing blue robes. I recognized him to be that Jedi Nemo.
I smiled and gave a laugh, "Yeah, I am. I'm looking for a Sasha Ortiz." I told him.
Nemo nodded, "Ah, yes." He said and then he looked over to my left and he pointed to a woman that had short brown hair and looked as though she was waiting, "That's her over there." He told me.
I thanked him and walked over to this Sasha.
She looked at me, "Hello." She said. Her voice was friendly.
"Hey." I greeted her, "I'm Reese Aryen. You wanted me?"
Sasha nodded, "Yes. I've been assigned to be your Master."
I nodded, I figured that was the case. Why else would she want me?
"We'll start you training tomorrow." Master Ortiz continued. I think I might just call her Sasha. Master Ortiz seems so… formal.
"Ok, thanks!" I smiled at her.
She nodded her head and dismissed me. I walked away and decided to go to the Ebon Hawk. I walked around to the ship and up the ramp. I went to the room I hid my stuff in.
Luckily no one was in there as I opened the panel up and grabbed my bag. I put it over my shoulder and walked out of the door.
"Reese?" I heard some one say.
I turned to see my blue Twi-Lek friend.
"Hey Mish." I greeted her.
"What are you doing?" she asked me.
"I'm just getting my things and then I have to back to my… room? I think that's what it's called, anyway. You wanna come with?" I asked her.
Mish looked hesitant, "I would love to, but I promised Carth that I would stay here for a while, until everyone gets used to us." She sighed, but then her eyes lighted up, "I could sneak down with you!" she said, enthusiasticly.
I shook my head, "Nu-uh. If Cartheh boy told you to stay here, then you'd better stay." I said, "When things are settled, you can come by, though?" I asked her.
"Sure!" she smiled, "So what's been happening in the outside world?"
"Not much. I met some other Padawans and my Master." I said, making a face as I said 'Master.' I had nothing against Sasha Ortiz, I just don't like calling people 'Master.'
"Cool. Hey, I have something for you." Mission told me as she handed me a data-pad.
I took it and looked at her, "Thanks, what's it for?"
She shrugged, "Anything, really. You could use it as a diary?" she suggested.
I smiled, "Thanks, Mish." I told her, "I gotta go. I'll come back later."
"Ok, see ya." Mission waved to me.
I laughed and waved as I left and headed back to where I was to sleep.
When I walked into there, only Lianna was in there with someone who I didn't know. The other person was a young girl and by young I mean about five years old. She had curly blond hair and she had bright blue eyes.
Lianna looked up at me, "Hey Reese." She greeted. The little girl hid herself behind the Togruta.
"Shh… It's alright, Des." Lianna comforted the girl. I came closer and sat down on the bed next to Lianna's bed.
"Des, this is Reese, my new roomie. Reese, this is Destiny." She introduced us.
"Hey sweetie." I smiled kindly to the girl.
"H…hi?" Destiny said, hesitantly to me, "You're different.
I tilted my head at the small girl. What did she mean by that? Then I glanced at Lianna. She shrugged.
"Well, it's a pleasure to meet you, Destiny." I said to the small girl.
I slid off the bed and opened up the foot-locker. It was empty and it was mine. I put my bag in there and then put the Data-Pad that Mish gave me on the top.
I shut it and locked it. I sat back on the bed. So far for the first day at the Jedi Enclave has been good.
I hope the rest will be good too.
There it is. It won't be as frequently updated as the IAJW series, but which would you rather updated more. This or IAJW:B2?
