Two days ago Jedi Grandmaster Yoda and Master Mace Windu were discussing the blockade over Naboo when all of a sudden there was a flash of blue light.
After the light dissipated, there lie two humans who were unconscious.
One of the humans is a light blonde haired, pale woman who was wearing a green cloak and has a lightsaber hilt on her belt. The two masters believe she is a Jedi from the orders past.
The other individual is an ash-blond man with a slight tan. He was wearing the standard issue armor of the now extinct Republic Military with the symbol of the elite Havoc Squad. Further evidence of them coming from the past is the fact that the soldier has an outdated slugthrower rifle and an ancient blaster pistol along with a cannon, an E-313 Heavy Repeating Disruptor, and the legendary AC-15D Dantooian Defender: a blaster rifle with a 32 inch long barrel capable of firing five hundred shots either on semi or fully automatic and the stock is made of Dantooinian Blba wood. It was popular amongst Scouts, Force Recon units of the extinct Republic Marine Corps and those who wanted sniper-like accuracy out of a rifle, but also wanted to retain automatic capabilities.
The masters then scoured through their archives to discover the identities of the two individuals. They only came up with the name of the soldier: James Mayer, famed brother of Jedi Battlemaster Daniel Mayer. The woman, however, was not in the records of the known individuals of the Jedi Order, which is why the two highly respected members of the Jedi Order went to interview once they heard that their unexpected guests are awake.
The two masters approached the room and they heard laughter coming from inside the ward:
"So let me get this straight. When you were younger you released a flock of Coruscanti hens inside the Jedi Temple?" A strange feminine accent asked him in an amused tone.
"Sure did Lana. It was all worth it to see the faces of the Council." A man in a Dantooinian accent with slight hints of lower class Coruscanti stated.
The masters entered the room and saw that indeed they are awake. But something is off about the woman. There are hints of the dark side in her and the Force is telling them that despite being trained in the Darkside, she can be trusted.
The two individuals then turned to face the two masters.
"Greetings. Welcome you to the temple I do. Name is Grandmaster Yoda. Current head of the Order I am."
"I'm Master Mace Windu. The current head of the Jedi Council."
The pair became suspicious, albeit for different reasons.
"Current head of the Order? I sure don't know what trick this is but you Revanite scum won't get away with it because there is no Master 'Yoda' nor a 'Windu' in the Order Hut'unn."
"Calm down. Revanites we are not." Master Yoda pleaded. He had never heard of these 'Revanites' thus some further research is in order.
"Well if you are not Revanites and that is a big if… You mentioned that we're at the Jedi Temple. How long were we out and is Darth Marr here because I do not believe that the Jedi would willingly allow a Sith here unless an alliance was formed after Ziost?"
At the mention of Darth and Sith, Mace became alarmed and judging by the looks of Master Yoda, he is too, but Master Windu also believed in what the Force told him.
"Yes you are indeed at the Jedi Temple, but… The Korun master trailed. "Nearly three thousand years past and neither the Sith nor the Empire exists."
The two 'guests' looked at the two Masters like if they're insane and Lana did a light probe, but the Jedi are telling the truth. James Gray-Blue faced towards the Sith before turning back to face the Jedi.
"Are they telling the truth Lana?" The Republic Soldier asked the Blonde.
"Unfortunately yes."
The conservation didn't go unnoticed by the two Jedi. It appears that the trooper deeply cared for the Sith woman, but the masters couldn't tell if the Sith was indeed one because of her Jade Green eyes.
"Question I have. If Sith you are, why are your eyes green?"
The woman calmly answered the Grandmaster. "Because I do not use the Darkside unless absolutely necessary Master Yoda. But if you need proof, I'm willing to show you." She then blinked a few times before her eyes became yellow.
"Act like a Jedi you do. But Sith you are. Undeniable it is."
Before she could reply, James spoke up for her. "Lana Beniko is probably the only Sith I trust. When I first met her on Manaan, I couldn't believe that she's more compassionate than some of the Jedi Masters I know. If you are going to lock her up, treat her like an animal, and or harm her in any way, I will prevent it."
It was official. The ancient soldier deeply cared for the Sith and there is more than just mutual respect for one another.
"Love each other do you?"
The two individuals sitting on the separate beds blushed.
"*Cough* Yes, Lana and I… have an affection for one another. You can call it love at first sight. It was hard seeing her leave after defeating Revan on Yavin IV, but we reunited on Ziost before it was…"
"Devoid of life." Master Windu interrupted. "Even though your relationship is considered treason, the Sith Order were completely wiped out nine hundred and sixty-eight years ago. After the Rusaan Reformation the same year, the Republic Military was disbanded. I do not think that you can be charged anymore, but we also don't know what to do with you."
The statement came as a shock. How idiotic were the damn politicians? Disbanding the military?! And the Sith were wiped out?
The four went back and forth with Lana and James learning about recent history. When they learned that there is a blockade at Naboo, James is angry, to say the least.
"And now we have the Trade Federation invading a peaceful planet and your response is to SEND IN DIMPLOMATS?!"
Surprisingly it was the Sith who calm him down this time. "Love? Please calm down."
The soldier then took a deep breath and apologized. "I'm sorry masters. It just that I just went from fighting against a madman trying to extend his life in an apocalyptic and evil way to waking up to a changed galaxy over three thousand years in the future."
"Understand we do. Apology accepted it is." Just then Lana had an idea that would change the galaxy forever.
"Master Windu? You mentioned that you're going sending in two Jedi to negotiate with the Trade, right?"
"Correct." The dark-skinned master not seeing where this is going."
"What I propose is this. How would you like to have two experienced fighters in case said negotiations went wrong?"
The two masters glanced at each other, using telepathy to discuss the proposal before they turned back and Master Yoda spoke up.
"Agreed I do. But cover you will need. Might be open to working with you we are Lord Beniko, but the rest of the council. Not open they might be."
"Understood. However for future reference please do not call me by a title. Lana or Miss Beniko is fine and I just don't like titles."
There were a few more discussions about the cover identities before it was agreed that the story is that Lana is from a long lost sect of the Jedi Order that disagree over the issue of Love and James is a mercenary born on Dantooine and has formed a relationship with her after a mission on Duros.
Only the Jedi Masters inside the room knew the truth and they will reveal it to the rest of the Order in time.
As Yoda always said 'Always in motion. The future is.'
