The Past Always Catches Up
Chapter 1: Questions
Grey stormy eyes flew open the moment the dream was over. The woman in the bed gave out a loud gasp. It was hard for her to breath. It felt as if someone had punched her in the stomach or as if she died and somehow was brought back to life. She tried hard to slow down her breathing, feeling the pain slowly drift away.
'What was that all about? Who were those people?' She wondered as she continued to slow her breathing and lay there.
Slowly getting up, she began to look around "Where am I?" She said out loud.
Suddenly, the door flew open, revealing an untamed man with brown hair and stubble on his face. He was wearing black paints, black boots, and a hideous orange jacket. The woman observed him, noticing his worried and exhausted look.
The man didn't even notice that the woman was awake until he heard someone clear their throat. "Oh, I see you are awake. How are we feeling?"
The woman continued to look at him not sure whether to trust him or not. "Where am I?"
"Do you remember anything that happened?"
"Like what?" 'Not sure what he is talking about. But maybe something can jog my memory.'
"Do you know who I am?"
The woman cocked her eyebrow "Should I? And you still never answered my question."
Rubbing the back of neck as a nervous habit, the man replied "You must have hit your head harder than I thought." He looked over a t the woman, her questioning glare still on him. "You and I were on a star cruiser called the Endar Spire. We were attacked and boarded by the Sith. Unfortunately, we are the only ones who survived the attack. You hit your head on the way down. So, I took you in this abandoned apartment room and scouted around for a few days. I am Carth."
"Why were we attacked?" 'And why was I on the Endar Spire?'
"We were escorting a Jedi and her team. I am hoping that she has survived as well. I heard that another escape pod was seen crashing on this planet."
"How long was I out?"
"You have been out for at least a few days."
"What have you found out about this planet? And what planet are we on?"
"We are on the planet Taris. And so far I have noticed that the Sith are occupying this planet."
"Who is this Jedi?"
"Her name is Bastila Shan. And she is the key to this war. That is why the Sith want her. We need to find her."
"If she is a Jedi, couldn't she take care of herself? What makes her so special?"
"There is a technique that helps us with the war. Which makes her a Sith target. The Sith occupy this planet. If we can find her we could help her get off this planet somehow. Will you help me?"
The woman glared at him trying to process about what he said. She didn't really want to get involved, but for some reason, it felt as if she needed to help this man. She felt as if there was something she needed to know about herself and wouldn't find out unless she did get involved with this mission. Something important was on this planet, and she wasn't sure why.
"Okay fine, I will help you. My name is Aisha."
A/N: What does she need to know? Why does she need to be on this planet? Is it Bastila? Or something else? Until next time!
