Foreword: So we left off with Seth just finishing his first day as a Jedi. He was dead tired, and fell asleep.

Chapter 4: The New Day

Seth woke up the next morning feeling like he had just chopped his legs off. He was feeling exhausted from the previous day, and was starving. Seth realizing that he had fallen asleep in his training clothes changed his attire for something more comfortable.

Seth closed the door behind him, and started to work his way to the dining hall. He had a vague impression where the hall was, and couldn't wait to bite into some food. He was just about to enter, when he heard a familiar voice.

"Seth, hey Seth! Wait up a minute!"

It was Joplin as Seth came to realize, he was wearing a traditional Jedi clothes, and looked extravagant.

"Hey how are you?" asked Seth.

"Not bad, how do you like your Master," said Joplin.

"He's spectacular! He taught me a lot yesterday, and I can't wait to learn more!"

"Hey do you want to eat breakfast with me? Then we can talk more in detail," asked Seth.

"Sorry I can't I said I would meet Kyle by the training area. He said it was something important."

"Oh… ok that's fine." Said Seth disappointed.

Seth bid goodbye to Joplin, and continued to find the dining hall. He looked outside to find a beautiful morning, with exotic birds singing, Jedi doing early morning calisthenics, and the world waking up to a new day.

Seth unrelenting to find the dining hall finally found it after a half an hour search. Seth became lost numerous times, and stared in awe at the extravagant and intricate temple.

Seth finally found the dining hall, and sat down at a table to eat. He sat there wondering what Joplin possibly could be doing.

"He had only been here one day, what could possibly be so important?" thought Seth.

Seth then decided to dismiss the idea, in not to worry about such things, and continue eating his breakfast.

After finishing his food, Seth deiced wonder around the grounds of the temple area, to become more familiar with them. Seth took a leisurely walk around the corridors, finding new areas, placing a mental map into his brain where everything was.

Seth was walking down a hallway, when there was a rustling of leaves, and the howl of the wind. He looked outside to see if the weather had changed. He expected to see luminous looking clouds, and the land becoming slightly darker. He was astonished to find that it was a perfect day outside with the sun shining blindly.

He wondered what had caused this phenomenon, and saw at the other end of the hall a menacing looking droid holding a blaster rifle. The droid was bulky, and looked as if it could tear Set apart. Seth, out of instinctive behavior, sprinted into a near by room. He found this room to be a storage area, and knew that if the droid found him, he would be easily blasted.

He had dashed from the room, and took coverage behind a bookcase. He had to think quickly before the droid came to shoot him. He realized that he could use his Jedi pushing ability to push the droid down. Seth closed his eyes, and used all his strength to push the assassin droid. It fell to the ground with a loud thud, and became motionless.

He was just about to approach the droid, when he heard a new voice.

"Congratulations Seth you have completed your first task as a Jedi."

Seth was startled at this new voice, and looked behind him to find a familiar face. It was Suc'a.

"Wait, I am how did you get here," asked Seth.

"At the Jedi Academy, it is more than just learning force powers, and studying diplomatic relations, your skills should be used in life threatening situations. You have demonstrated this skill with distinction. Once you saw the threat, you took cover. You realized that staying in that closet, could be your last move. So, you used your Jedi ability to knock the droid down."

"So this was all just a test? But that droid could have killed me!" said Seth confused.

"Yes, even if you had failed, the droid's gun was set to stun. If you were shot, you may have had minor paralyzes around your body, but it would go away."

"Oh that makes sense then, but how did you know that I would be here at this time?"

"Quite simply, I used the force to detect your presence, and followed you."

"Great" thought Seth.

"Yes it was pretty cunning," said Suc'a jokingly.

"Did you just read my thoughts again?" asked Seth.

"Sorry, it's a habit of mine," said Suc'a apologetically.

The pair then walked out to the training area, for another day of vigorous exercises and force powers.

After another long day of training, Seth met up with Joplin in the dining hall for dinner.

"Hey how did that early practice with Kyle go?"

"Well, it was a trap. He surprised me by sending out two CIS Super Battle Droids. I was about to move, when I tripped on my long robes. I thought that I would have been dead just then. They ended up shooting me, but there weapons were set on stun. So, I was very numb for a couple of hours. Kyle said that this was a test for new Jedi."

"Wow, the same thing happened to me. Instead it was an assassin droid."

"So I guess this is a test of strength and wits for early Jedi," commented Joplin.

"Must be."

After dinner, Seth went back to his room to mediate, and practice his new Force power moves. He had been at it for hours, and began a hurricane of all his belongings rotating in a circle, around his room through the manipulation of the force.

Seth had been in deep concentration when he heard a knock at the door. Seth wondered who would be up, at this time of night. The sun had been down for hours, and Seth could hear the hum of the fireflies, and the cricket of the grasshoppers.

"Come in," said Seth.

Seth looked to the door, setting down all of his possessions in a mishmash around his room, to see the Jedi Master Luke Skywalker approaching him.

"Hello Seth, how do you like it at the temple," asked Luke. He spoke in a much more cheerful voice now that he was alone with Seth. He remembered Luke's impressive voice, and the dignity of which he stood.

"I am really enjoying my time here so far. I believe that learning the Jedi ways can lead me to do great things in the galaxy."

"You have concluded correctly, but I have some distressing news. Your Master, Suc'a, had to be called in for an urgent mission at her home planet of Ryloth. She was very disappointed not to continue her training herself, but she was compelled by her duty to complete tasks. Therefore, you have been assigned a new Master. His name is Jedi Master Jaden Korr. He has just recently become a Jedi Master for his excellent skills for striking down a powerful Sith, and saving a fellow Jedi's life."

"When will I meet my new Master," asked Seth questionably.

"You will meet him tomorrow morning at the edge of the forest. I believe he has something to show you."

"Tomorrow morning… no problem. I'll be there."

"Great, then I will leave you to your mediation."

With his last comment, Luke left the room. The door shut leaving Seth to compile thoughts about his new Master, and the approaching day.
