The whole briefing gone smoothly. All necessary information, location of pirate base,… We were provided with everything to guarantee complete success. I smelled a death vrelt. A long-dead one. But we were Jedi dispatched to do biddings of Senator Nya. If the Force will show me the end of this assignment at certain time, I will walk away no matter what. But the Force had other plans.
" Knight Na'ab, may I speak with you privately?"asked me Senator Nya after our briefing. I clearly felt curiosity of my student through our bond, but I sent him clearly: Not this time. I will tell you on our way, what's the matter. Go to the ship and prepare for take-off. And don't forget our equipment for infiltration to the base.
He answered me with obedience, but I felt his resentful mood behind: As ordered, master.
I can read you so easily, that it highly disturbs me, padawan. Be careful about your mental shielding, you drop it. Again.
Sorry, Master.
" Senator Nya, if I understand this clearly, this is not about stopping pirates in your system, isn't it?"
" No, it isn't. They kidnapped my daughter, Gema. Or to say it more clearly, I held a strong suspicion about this matter. I'm very ashamed because my spies discovered proofs, which suggest her possible support of them. That she wanted to become one of them. She is my only children and only heir. I feared that she might be in danger as I told to your Council. They agreed to dispatch you and your student to bring her back. I supposed you were not aware of that, weren't you?"
" No, Senator, I was not." I just mentally thought something very unpleasantly about entire Council and gripped my teeth. " But I will complete this assignment. For now, goodbye."
" Knight…I believe that your order used to say: May the Force be with you. I strongly wish this for you and your padawan. And...Thank you."
" Jedi lives to protect others, even from consequences of their mistakes. Especially when they are made in young age. " I smiled wryly. " But we are not able to be available every nanosecond."
Not a long one..but it starts. Please, enjoy...R+R mostly aprecciated
Great acknowledgments for Elemarth for review
