Star Wars: Revan's Bloodline
Ch. 1
Thirteen years before the Clone Wars
On the planet of Coruscant, inside an average apartment, a not so average family of three, a husband, a wife, and their son, were in their living room, spending as much quality time together as possible, because it was only a matter of time before a Jedi arrived to take their son away. Two things informed them of this; first was the fact that their son had an extraordinary connection to the Force, and the second was the fact that the family's ancestor had told them so. Not many families could speak with their ancestors, but not many families were filled with Force Sensitive's; and this ancestor is a very important figure in both the Jedi Order, and the Republic itself; his name, is Revan.
As the two parents played with their son in living room, they were interrupted by the appearance of Revan, in the form of a Force Ghost, who had arrived to give the family a message.
"The Jedi will be here at any moment." Revan said, and the two parents stood up, and were immediately depressed.
"Must they take our son? You've protected us from the presence of the Jedi for almost three millennia's; why do they need one from our heritage now?" The father asked, the one that had Revan's bloodline in him.
"This doesn't bring me any joy or happiness Evnar, but he has a great destiny he must fulfill, to protect both the Jedi, and the Republic, and to do that, he must be trained by both the Jedi, and myself." Revan said, and the mother stepped forward.
"But why must it be him? Isn't there another way?" The mother asked, a former Jedi that left the Order so she could be Evnar.
"No, I'm taking a risk by making it Anver who fulfills this destiny; I should've made it Evnar to begin with, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. But now, I have no choice; it must be Anver." Revan explained, and Evnar stepped forward.
"I understand Revan, I just ask one thing of you; please protect Anver." Evnar asked, and Revan nodded.
"Of course. However, there is…one thing I must do before the Jedi arrive." Revan said, and reaching out with the Force, he brought a knife forward, and stepped over to Anver, and bringing the knife to his "hand", he put the blade on Anver's hand, and cut it, much to his parents shock. Anver immediately began crying out in pain, and his mother picked him up and began rocking him, as the blood from Anver's cut arm dripped to the floor. Revan then reached out with the Force again, and the blood turned to mist, and floated to Revan before disappearing into his ghost.
"What did you do!" The mother demanded, and Revan put his hand over Anver's wound.
"I used an ancient Sith technique to bind my spirit to him. I cannot risk the Jedi Council interfering in my plans by making it impossible for me to be around Anver. With me being bound to him, there is nothing the Council can do." Revan explained, and when he removed his hand, Anver's wound was gone, completely healed. "There, like it never happened." Revan said, and suddenly, there was knock on the door. "He's here. I must go now, but rest assured that I will always be with Anver. May the Force be with both of you." Revan said, and he disappeared as Evnar walked to the door and opened, and a Jedi Master walked in.
"Greetings, I am Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn. I am here to take your son to the Jedi Temple, where he would be trained in the ways of the Force."
When Anver was brought before the Council, Qui-Gon explained to them that he sensed that Anver had a very strong connection to the Force, stronger than he's ever seen. The Council was about to respond, when they suddenly sensed a third presence, a powerful presence.
"Show yourself, whoever you are!" Master Windu demanded, and before, appeared Revan, much to the Council's shock. "What are you doing here?" Windu demanded.
"I am here to keep an eye on Anver. I need to make sure he's trained properly; he is my descendant, after all." Revan explained, and the Council was taken aback by the announcement.
"Anver's….your descendant?" Ki-Adi Mundi asked, and Revan nodded.
"This does explain Anver's strong connection to the Force." Kit Fisto said, and the other members of the Council nodded.
"That doesn't mean you can include yourself in Anver's training Revan; you are supposed to be one with the Force, at peace. Not worrying about one of your descendants." Windu said, and he tried to use the Force to dismiss Revan, but he didn't disappear, surprising the Council members.
"I have taken the necessary precautions to make sure I am always near Anver. You won't be able to send me away so easily." Revan explained, and the Council knew what he meant.
"You have bound yourself to Anver! Do you have any idea how dangerous this is? That is Sith Sorcery you're using Revan!" Windu said angrily.
"I am aware of that Master Windu, but I did what was necessary; I must remain close to Anver at all times. It's not just your teachings he needs to fulfill the destiny set before him, it's my teachings as well." Revan said, and Windu was about to respond, but Yoda held up his hand to stop him.
"A destiny, you claim Anver has. What is it?" Yoda asked.
"I can't give you the full details, but Anver will play a very important role that will determine the fate of the Republic and the Jedi." Revan said.
"That is not enough proof to allow you to intervene in this child's training!" Windu said, but Yoda stopped Windu before he could continue.
"The truth, I sense in Revan. Allow him to play a part in Anver's training, we will." Yoda said, and the Council knew that Yoda's word was final.
"Very well, but we will keep a very close eye on Anver, and you Revan; if you try to teach Anver any forbidden Force Powers or techniques…" Windu said, but Revan raised his hand.
"I understand; I'll make sure Anver stays to the Jedi Code." Revan said, and the Council dismissed them.
"Come along Anver, I'll take you to your new room." Qui-gon said, and Anver looked towards his ancestor, who motioned him to follow the Jedi Master.
Seven years later, six years before the Clone Wars
Anver was in the library, resentfully studying the ways of the Force, and the Jedi, with his ancestor looking over his shoulder, making sure Anver was paying attention to what the holo-book was telling him. If you were to ask Anver, he'd quickly tell you that he'd rather spend time with his friends in the cafeteria, rather than spend hours studying. Revan, however, wasn't going to let Anver leave the library until he completely understood the meaning of the Jedi Code.
"Now Anver, translate the first tenet of the Jedi Code; There is no emotion, there is peace." Revan said, and Anver took a deep breath.
"A Jedi must understand their feelings, otherwise, they may not be able to confront them, and achieve the peace we deeply desire. In other words, we shouldn't allow emotions to take away our peace." Anver said, and Revan nodded.
"Very good, now, the second tenet; There is no ignorance, there is knowledge." Revan said, and Anver rolled his eyes.
"A Jedi must be open-minded, and look for wisdom wherever he can, that includes being more than just rational, but also intuitive. A Jedi accepts other cultures and peoples opinions, without trying to impose their own thoughts on others." Anver explained, and Revan nodded again.
"Next; There is no passion; there is serenity." Revan said and Anver began thinking of an answer.
"A Jedi always keeps a calm mind, and keeps his emotions in check. He looks for other alternatives, other than violence, to solve conflict. You don't let you passions blind you, rather you see things the way the Force does." Anver said, and Revan gave his approval.
"Excellent. Now for the forth tenet; There is chaos, there is harmony." Revan said.
"Everything in the universe is connected and interdependent. Nothing happens by chance or accident. Experiencing things such as failure, inconvenience, disagreement, and disappointment is inevitable, and should just be accepted as a natural part of life. Tragedy is also a part of life, and a part of the Force, and when a Jedi accepts this fact, it will lead him to harmony." Anver said, and Revan nodded.
"Correct. Now for the final tenet; There is no death; there is the Force."
"The Force exists in all things, and it continues to live on in someone, even after that person has died. It is a Jedi's duty to accept and celebrate death, in order to celebrate life. A Jedi also doesn't fear death; they accept it. Nor does a Jedi mourn the death of a close one for too long, they accept the fact that death is a natural part of life, for neither can exist without the other. A Jedi also accepts that, when someone dies, they become one with the Force, and live on through us." Anver said, and Revan nodded finally, causing Anver to give a sigh of relief. "Can I go now? I'm starving, and I haven't talked to my friends all day!" Anver asked, and Revan nodded.
"Very well, but return to the Library as soon as you're done; you're going to learn about the origins of the Jedi and the Sith." Revan said, and Anver just rolled his eyes.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever you say." Anver said, and he took off towards the cafeteria.
When Anver got into the cafeteria, he picked up a bowl of soup from the food bar, and quickly found his best friends, sitting at a nearby table, laughing. At the table were two Zeltron's, twins, brother and sister, the boy had deep crimson skin, while the girl had light pink skin, but both had blue hair. Both ten years old, like Anver. The girl's name was Luxa Duare, and her brother's name was Marruc. There was also an eight year old Togruta girl, Ahsoka Tano, with them as well. The three Jedi befriended Ahsoka a few months ago, but they quickly grew close. Anver sat down next to Ahsoka, across from Luxa, and greeted his friends with a smile.
"Where've you been Anver? We were starting to miss you." Luxa asked, and Anver gave an exhausted sigh.
"Revan wouldn't let me leave the library until I learned and explained the Jedi Code to him, perfectly." Anver said annoyingly, and Marruc rolled his eyes.
"Sounds rough, but hey, I'd love to be taught by a great Jedi like Revan. Heck, I'd love to have your bloodline and strength in the Force." Marruc said.
"Trust me Marruc, if you were in my position, you wouldn't want this curse. I'm constantly being hounded by my ancestor to increase my knowledge of the Force beyond what is required for the other padawans. Not to mention the Council is constantly breathing down my neck about making sure I don't fall to the Dark Side, I mean, they'll lecture me if breathe wrong!" Anver said, and Ahsoka smiled.
"Who knew a dead person could be such a tough instructor?" Ahsoka said, and the twins laughed, but Anver just focused on eating.
"When I'm done with lunch, Revan intends on teaching me the origins of the Jedi and all that stuff. I just wish I could be a normal youngling; I can't stand this constant training and studying!" Anver said, and his friends groaned in disappointment.
"Aw man! But you were supposed to play with us in the courtyard today!" Luxa said, upset, and Anver nodded.
"I know, but I have to do what Revan says, no matter much I would rather spend time with you guys." Anver said, and as he finished off his soup, he reluctantly got up, and returned to the library like Revan had told him.
A/N: So what do you guys think? I hope I did good job depicting Revan's personality, and showing Anver's character. I have a question for you guys; if you like this story, would you like to see other Kotor characters to appear in this story? Namely HK-47, and maybe even T3. What do you think?
