This is a work of clone wars fanfiction. OCs mostly. I do not own Star Wars.


As soon as I left the training room, I turned to Cecily. "Master Koth was not very pleased with you." I tell her.

She shrugs, not looking particularly bothered. "He never is, not really anyway." She replies.

"That stunt you pulled on Fish was impressive, although very impulsive. You need to learn to control that." I tell her, doing my best to keep up conversation. She's not exactly the friendliest person on Coruscant.

"I know." She replies before falling quiet. She seemed to be content with observing the surroundings.

"So you were up on the rafters the whole time?" I asked, rather amazed. Not many people could balance on the thin beams that ran across the ceiling.

"Yeah, I fell asleep about an hour before I was supposed to meet you. I then woke up a little before Master Koth came in." She replied.

"Not many people could sit on the rafters, let alone sleep on them." I said, hoping to get at least a half-smile from her.

No such luck. "Well, I like high places. And besides, Master Koth said I have the balance of a lothcat." She said, still very serious and guarded.

I stared at her, trying to figure out how a 13 year old could be so emotionless. Maybe she was upset about what happened with Fish. "Look, I'm sorry about Fish. He can be a bit overwhelming at times." I tell her.

She just looks at me and shrugs. "I'm not upset over anything, I just prefer to be quiet."

I frown. There is something off about her, but I let the conversation fall flat.

After looking at ends upon ends of identical doors, it was a relief when we got to my quarters. As I opened the door I turned to Cecily and grinned.

"These, are your new quarters." We both stepped into the room and thankfully I had remembered to clean it. "Your room is the first door to the left, and the 'fresher is opposite."

"Thank you." Was all she uttered before she left, probably to find her room.

I sat down and waited, trying to meditate. I got about 5 minutes in before I heard a very loud

"KRIFF!"

Cecily came rushing in the room 2 seconds later. Just before she left the room I stopped her.

"First of all young lady, watch your language. Second of all, where are you going?" I sked.

"Yeah, sorry about that. I forgot everything back at the dorm." She said. I nodded.

"I'll come with you." I was actually fairly interested in seeing the difference between the dorm rooms now and the dorm rooms when I was a youngling.

As it turned out, there wasn't a difference. You'd think they would update the rooms once in a while, but nope. It was still the same gray common room with stairs to the left and right.

"Okay, just give me a second to grab my bag." Cecily said as she ran up the stairs to the right.

I shrugged and sat in the common room.


Where is it? That bag had everything important in it. My lightsaber, the hanging supports, everything! And now I can't find it! As I was just about to give up, I saw it. It was under the bed, of all places. I quickly grabbed it and went back downstairs.

Upon getting downstairs, I saw my new master talking to Master Koth. Moving closer, I cleared my throat. "Master, I got my bag."

"Okay. It was good taking to you Koth." My new master said.

"And you, Ferre." Master Koth replied.

We turned out of the room and went back to our quarters. I opened up my bag and pulled out my lightsaber, leaving it on the table.

Master looked confused, so I explained. "I'm trying not to forget it. I have to do one thing, and then I should be ready to begin training."

He nodded and I went to my room. As soon as I got there I quickly got to work. I was going to make a hammock out of the bedsheets, and I needed the supports to do so.

I got out my super strong glue as well as a couple of nails. I attached to supports to the ceiling using them, then stripped the bed. I tied the corners of the sheets together, effectively creating a hammock, and strung it up on the supports. Jumping in it a couple of times, I decided it was strong enough. I then went back out to the main quarters.

"Okay, I'm ready." I announced.

"Good, we'll head down to the training center." He got up and walked out the door. I grabbed my lightsaber and followed.

When we got there he turned to me. "What have you gotten to with the remotes?" he sked.

I tried to think. "I'm pretty sure I can get 2 on hard, 3 on medium, and 6 on easy." I say.

"Well then let's start on easy." He said.

He started off with one. I got into the starting form for Soresu, my second favorite form, and waited. I was able to block every shot with up to 4 remotes, only get shot once or twice with 5, and an average amount on 6. Then he turned them off.

"So you did pretty well with that, but I'm assuming Soresu isn't your favored form." Master said.

I nodded. "I prefer Makashi, but that form isn't the best for blocking shots. It's more of a dueling form."

"Well then, I guess we have to duel to assess your strengths." He grinned and then got into the starting form for Ataru.

I sighed, then got into the starting form for Makashi. Master leapt at me, and I raised my blade to redirect his swing, and countered with a jab of my own which he easily parried. This went on for a few minutes until I was caught in a saber lock. I was easily overpowered, and I shut my lightsaber off.

"Your balance is incredible, as well as your control of the blade. The only problem is that you're not quite strong enough, and you don't quite see any openings left. From what I can remember, those are pretty important to Makashi." Master said.

I gave a curt nod. I don't take to criticism well.

"Now how about we try that again. And this time, look for openings in an attack." Master said.
