A/N: Hello again, my friends! This is something that I will definitely work long-term on, and I really hope that you guys think that it turns out as I think it will!

Something to keep in mind as I go on in this story: everything is from the cameras being pointed at Elizabeth unless I say otherwise.

Italics are thoughts, regular text is regular text, bold is my author's notes, and the underlined text will be when the cameras are not on Elizabeth.

Timeline-wise, this is right before the Battle of Skarif in Rogue One, and Elizabeth doesn't realize it yet, but the next time that she goes away to that universe she will not return to Earth - at least, not for a large amount of time, so there won't be too much college stuff after this. I like to add it for character development on Elizabeth's part.

Let's start the chapter already! Please review and tell me what you think!

Elizabeth, now 19 years old, looked at her new college campus and smiled, thinking, Man, I hope that this is the year that I become a Jedi.

It had been five years since she had first met Obi-Wan on Tatooine, and she was excited yet nervous for the coming year. This was the year when Luke would find the droids and have his life changed forever. She knew that it must happen, for the galaxy's sake. She just hoped that she would not be too involved in the story. Too much involvement could alter the course of events.

She was broken from her train of thought as her mother bumped into her as she got Elizabeth's things out of the car. Elizabeth had taken control of her Jedi training in the past year and took the year off from school to stay with Obi-Wan to train 24/7. Although her mother at first did not approve, she eventually gave in. Elizabeth was 18 now, and it was time for her to make her own decisions about what to do with her life. Elizabeth came back in time to apply for college and try to live as normal a life on Earth as a Jedi Seedling could.

THAT was easier said than done. She was the chief tactical advisor for the Rebellion now, and she had become very close friends with Leia Organa, the whole time keeping the identity of Leia's twin brother a secret. She knew that the Rebellion was planning an attack on the Empire right now, and she would be needed either that day or the next for the planning sessions to add her thoughts to the strategy.

It didn't help that she was a genius when it came to Battleship, chess, and other strategy-related games on Earth. It also didn't help that she was a very powerful Force-sensitive. She had managed to keep her magic on Earth down to a crawl and mainly unseen by the general public. Only other Seedlings and her family knew about her secret powers.

When she began to use her Force abilities to help herself get a few things up to her room, some of the other students looked at her in awe. She was carrying a mini-fridge all by herself, and it usually took the strength of two male students to carry it to someone's room. She realized that they were staring and hurried as fast as the Force would take her to her assigned dorm room. There she met a girl who looked a lot like Leia, but whose name was Maria. The girl was also a Seedling, and she recognized Elizabeth's powers right away.

"So are you a Seedling, too?" Maria asked right off the bat after they introduced themselves.

"Yes, I am," Elizabeth replied, happy to know another Seedling but unsure of her intentions.

"Coolio! You have no idea what it's like to be the only Seedling family in a whole community of humans!"

"Actually, I'm the only Seedling in my family."

"How-wait-what?"

"No one has ever been able to figure out how that is. All I know is that most of my abilities are self-taught."

"Don't you mean magic?"

"No, I mean abilities. I'm learning not only magical-like abilities but mainly Force abilities."

"Oh, then I guess you're some big-shot Jedi."

"Somewhat, but not yet."

"Okay, girl, you are cray-cray."

"Whatever you say, Maria. Hey, I have to go later today to a meeting. I'll be back before dinner."

"Okay. I'll be waiting in the dining hall." Maria paused before saying, "You know, I could help you be popular. Everyone's going to be talking about how you've used your super-strength to carry that mini-fridge here. I can make that a good thing."

"Thanks, but no thanks. I have NO intention of being popular. Being popular is exactly the opposite of what I need right now. I've got a lot of battle strategy to figure out."

"You joined the game club then?" Maria sniffed haughtily at such a thought.

"Not exactly. It's about the meeting I'm going to later."

Elizabeth finished placing all the boxes in her room and hugged her family goodbye. She and her sister both held out their holo-comm units as a promise to keep in touch. Elizabeth then used the Force to decorate her side of the room exactly how she wanted it: her bed lofted, her desk by her mini-fridge and dresser, and the wall covered in what was going on in the Rebellion and the Empire as best as she could render it, including the current plans that she had for the upcoming attack on the Empire.

"Wow, nerdy much?" Maria sniffed again. "No wonder you've no desire to be popular. You've never tasted it in the first place!"

"Even then, I didn't exactly want anyone to know I was a Seedling. I like to be mysterious as the Force itself."

"Whatever, loser. Forget the popular offer."

"You know that I had no intention of accepting that, anyway."

"WHATEVER... major loser."

Elizabeth was slightly hurt, but focused on the strategy that she was going to propose to the Rebellion. She checked it for weaknesses again and again until she was satisfied with the whole thing.

She then went out to a secluded area of the school and was about to teleport to Yavin IV when a security guard walked by and dragged her out. Apparently that area was where a lot of on-campus crimes were committed, and he was only looking for her best interests and safety. She carried her battle plans carefully so as not to let anyone else see them. Unfortunately, two Seedling bullies who were around found the plans and took them away from her roughly, using their abilities to make it hidden somewhere on campus. Elizabeth grew in anger but used a Jedi meditation technique to drive it away. She spent the whole afternoon looking for it, and once she found the plans she looked for a place on campus where she could teleport herself without being dragged away by a security guard or having the possibility of the plans being stolen again.

She finally found one, but by that time it was time for dinner. She sighed in frustration before hurrying to the cafe to grab something to eat. She saw Maria smirking at her with pride and realized that Maria had set the whole thing up. Her anger grew, but she used the same technique to calm herself before a boy with a chess set walked over to her and asked her, "May I sit here?"

"Go ahead!" Elizabeth replied. "Wanna play?"

He took a minute to realize that she was speaking of the chessboard, and he accepted her offer. She beat him in under 20 moves, and he asked, "How are you so great at this game?"

"Strategy, my friend. What's your name?"

"Diego Mundo."

"Elizabeth Langford."

"Very nice to meet you, Elizabeth Langford. You are indeed a worthy opponent in chess. Wanna play Stratego later?"

Knowing full well that she couldn't go to a meeting for the Rebel Alliance until the next day, she said, "I accept your challenge. I warn you, though, I'm very good."

"We'll see."

Later that night, she beat him in every game he challenged her to. After a while, she began destroying him in their battles.

"Wow, you're the best strategist in the world!" he praised her after being utterly beaten.

"I wouldn't say the best. I know a few in the Rebellion that are better than I am. I'm just an advisor."

It took both of them a full minute to realize what Elizabeth just said to Diego.

"Rebellion? Is that some kind of Star Wars fan club?"

"Yeah, totally! It's really awesome, you should check it out sometime!"

She ran to her room and shut the door quickly behind her, glad that the plans were hidden somewhere in the room before Maria came in. Elizabeth breathed heavily, fear filling her whole body. What was I thinking? I just nearly told him my secret!

She then checked to see if the plans were still where she hid them. They were, and she sighed in relief that Maria had not found them yet. Maria wasn't back from a night of partying yet, so Elizabeth turned in for the night, hoping that Maria would not find her secret battle plans.

The next day, she quickly got her plans out and went to breakfast before finding her special spot again. She closed her eyes and held her hands high above her head. She focused on the massive Massassi temples of Yavin IV and felt the Force transporting her to her desired destination. As she was disappearing, she opened her eyes to see the earth disappear in a swirl of light. She smiled as she saw Maria looking her way, jaw practically dropping to the floor.

Elizabeth then reappeared at the hangar bay area of the temple, Princess Leia waiting patiently for her.

"Where were you yesterday? We were getting worried that you might not come."

"Sorry, Leia. Some students found the plans and hid them well enough to make me look for them all afternoon. I've got them here now, though, ready to present to the Council," Elizabeth explained.

Her friend smiled as she said, "Don't worry about it. Come on, we're waiting for you."

Leia led her to the battle room, where everyone greeted Elizabeth kindly. It was like being with good friends, which in a way they were.

"Ah, Elizabeth! There you are!" Mon Mothma greeted her kindly, wearing beautiful white clothing that matched her position of power in the Rebellion.

The Alliance showed her their current plan for battle based on Elizabeth's previous battle plans, and Elizabeth showed them her plans and saw that the two were almost exactly alike. They learn so fast, she thought to herself.

She made the changes necessary to make the mission a success, and she was happy with their progress. Explaining that she was needed back on Earth, she bid them luck with their old saying: "May the Force be with you all."

She then went outside and teleported herself back to her secret spot at school. Maria was waiting for her.

"What was that?!" Maria asked, flabbergasted at what she just saw occur. "What did you just do?"

"It's a long story, Maria," Elizabeth replied, "and not one I should tell to you. Because of you, I was a day late. They're getting ready for the plans tomorrow! Besides, your jealousy has been nothing but cumbersome."

"Elizabeth, I'm sorry! I didn't realize that you weren't joking when you said that they needed you. I didn't realize that were working for an actual Rebellion! I didn't know that you were a military strategist!"

"Not so loud! I've been trying to keep this a secret for years! Do you want the whole campus to know that one of their students is capable of planning the most deadly attack ever seen on the face of the Earth? Do you want them to know that there is a student with such abilities with the Force that she can take herself away to a galaxy far, far away?"

Maria shook her head, ashamed and yet still flabbergasted. "I'm sorry, Elizabeth. I didn't realize that those plans were real. I thought that you were just kidding, or that they were not for some video game."

"You looked at my battle plans?!"

"Yes, I did! I put them back unchanged, though! I thought that they were just a joke! I didn't realize... I didn't think..."

"Maria! It's okay. I forgive you. You did leave them where you found them, unmarked. I'm sorry for bursting out like that. It's not the Jedi way. I'm going to have to tell Obi-Wan now..."

"So the Jedi, Star Wars, the Empire... it's all real?"

"Yes. I first got there five years ago when I first learned to teleport myself to other places. I was excited and scared, mainly because I didn't know where I was. That day, I began my training with Obi-Wan Kenobi. It would be about five years for Luke to get the droids and change the face of the galaxy forever. Those five years are up. It's coming, very soon."

"So what's happened, movie-wise, so far? What episodes?"

"1, 2, and 3. Episode 4 is about to take place, and it will put the galaxy in the biggest adventure of a lifetime."

"So are you Luke?"

"No. Luke and Leia are still real. I'm actually friends with Leia, and she's really cool. There's a reason I do not seek popularity on Earth. I already have that and responsibility in that galaxy. I am the chief tactical advisor and strategist in the Rebellion. I am training to be a Jedi Knight. My life there is as crazy cool and complex as my life here, maybe more."

"Oh, okay. I didn't-"

"I make it a goal to let no one know, so please tell no one about this. Please. It's hard enough training without my powers being visible to the humans and Seedlings; I don't need anyone knowing that I'm a Jedi-in-training."

"I understand, Elizabeth. I won't tell anyone. That's a promise."
