Prologue Force Awakens
Luke sat in the small room. Short kept hair curled around his ears.
His legs were folded under him and his hands were on his lap, facing upwards. Blue eyes tightly closed, he breathed deeply and tried to calm his spirit, but to no avail. The haunting words returned to him over and over…
The republic will fall and it will be the beginning of a new Empire.
His eyes flashed open, allowing a single tear to trace down his check. Everything he had fought for, everything his family and friends had fought... and even died for, was about to be swept away.
And there was nothing he could do about it.
The evil was from within, and the force was too uncertain and council was too uncertain. He was not given the power he needed to perform arrests of the believed Sith. It was as if the senate expected him to be a statue like a piece of history. The Jedi were over, time to move on.
But he couldn't move on. They couldn't move on; he couldn't let them.
The force was all around them, whether they liked it or not. He couldn't give in to it; the Republic would fall if he did…
But then, it might fall anyway…
Luke closed his blue eyes again in aggravation. There was no one to fight beside him and he felt completely alone. He could turn to Leia and Han, his sister always said he could, but he hardly wanted to. Leia was too busy at the senate, trying to keep it under control. Han was part of the military council so he too was busy.
The time they weren't working themselves to death, they spent with their children, Jacen and Jaina. The twins were barely a year old and already they were full of vinegar like their parents.
Luke smiled at the thought of his niece and nephew, but it didn't change the situation. If he didn't act quickly then they wouldn't have a republic to grow up in. He wanted that for them, but he was at a loss of what to do…
Please, he pleaded into the force. Help me, or at least send me someone who can…
The galaxy stood completely silent for a moment, as if everything was taking a breath. Then suddenly a wave like effect occurred within the force. The galaxy shuddered and went still.
Ten pairs of eyes opened to view the worlds, eyes that had not done so with breath in more then half a decade…
Yeah, I know it's short, but it's a start.
