Jacen watched as his cousin meditated. She was becoming stronger every day, probably driven by the need to protect herself from this enemy. Poor kid. Nobody should ever have to go through something like this. She was the closest thing he had to a sister, and it made him angry that someone wanted to hurt her.

His grip tightened on his still active lightsaber. He didn't expect trouble, but he was smart enough to realize it might come for them. Hours went by, and Alayna just sat there, unmoving. Only her breathing changed every once in a while.

Suddenly, Jacen heard the unmistakable sound of a ship, or rather ships, landing outside the cave. He ran to the entrance and sure enough, three ships were landing just in front of the Ghost. Jacen turned and quickly closed the entrance to the cave, then stepped out into the hot Mandalorian sun. The golden blade of his lightsaber hummed in front of him as a black cloaked figure stepped out of the first ship. He was quickly followed by two more. Above them, another large transport ship circled. Jacen had no doubt that it carried more of these Sith, or whatever they were. The first man approached him as the others stopped and activated their lightsabers.

"Stand aside or die, Jedi scum." The man said. "No matter how far you run, we will always find her."

"Leave her alone!" Jacen yelled. "Why do you want her so badly?"

"Our master requires her, and her power." The man replied.

"What power?" Jacen asked. "Everyone keeps talking about this power that she has. What makes her so special?"

"You really don't know, do you?" The man asked. "Of course not, why would you? It's her family. The power found in her family tree."

"What do you mean?" Jacen asked. "What's in her family tree?"

Alayna

Alayna opened the door in front of her and found herself in a massive room. All around her were glowing shelves of holo books. There were a few people walking around, and a few more looking at computer screens

"Woah." She said in awe.

"Impressive, isn't it?" Qui Gon said, appearing beside her. "Welcome to the Archives. Before the Empire, this room held more knowledge than any place in the known Galaxy. If a Jedi had a problem, they would usually start their search for answers here."

"But where do I start?" Alayna asked.

"Where does your gut tell you?" Qui Gon replied.

Alayna closed her eyes and let instinct guide her hand. She looked up to where she was pointing, and approached the shelf. She repeated the process until she found the holo book she needed. Qui Gon showed her to a computer where she could read the data, and she sat down and began to read. She read for what seemed like hours, until she came across some information that caught her eye.

"The family tree of Bastila Shan." She read aloud. "Who's Bastila Shan?"

"She was my wife." Revan said, appearing next to Qui Gon. "When they discovered we had a child, they decided to keep tabs on our family tree. Just like they do with all powerful Jedi who have children."

"Why?" Alayna asked.

"Because powerful Jedi breed powerful Jedi." Qui Gon said. "They wanted to ensure that power never fell to the dark."

Intrigued, Alayna began to read. With nearly 4000 years worth of descendants, it took her awhile to reach the bottom of the list. Suddenly, she stopped, and her eyes widened as she read the name in front of her.

Jacen

Jacen blocked another swing, then used the momentum to kill yet another Sith. Breathing hard, he looked around him. There were still twenty enemies left. He had been right about the transport ship. Now they were toying with him, sending one man at a time. He strength was was starting to go, but he could feel something keeping him going. No, not something, someone. He raised his lightsaber again as another man stepped forward.

Suddenly, there was a high pitched whistle, followed by two large explosions that killed half of the Sith. Through the smoke flew five Mandalorian warriors, all wearing the distinctive orange and black of the new Royal Guard. While the man in front of him was distracted, Jacen lunged and drove his lightsaber into the man's chest. More explosions rattled the ground as the Mandalorians circled overhead. Their leader landed a few feet from Jacen as he stood and deactivated his lightsaber.

"You're kidding, right?" Jacen asked. "You show up now? Not when three hostile ships enter your atmosphere?"

"You're welcome, Jacen." The Mandalorian said as he removed his helmet. The young man smoothed back his red hair and grinned at the Jedi. "Admit it, I saved you."

"And how many times have I saved you Kallin?" Jacen asked.

"More than I'd like to admit." Kallin replied.

The two stared at each other, then Jacen began to laugh. Kallin followed suit, and the two shook hands.

"It's been a while." Jacen said.

"It has." Kallin replied "What did we do last, win the Neimoidian civil war by ourselves?"

"Yes." Jacen replied. "Those were the days, weren't they?"

Jacen had never told his cousin, but he and the Mandalorian prince had spent years roaming the Galaxy together, doing whatever it was the Republic thought it was too good to dirty it's hands with. They had saved each other countless times, and Jacen couldn't think of anyone who was a better friend.

"So what brings you here?" Kallin asked.

"Alayna." Jacen replied.

"She's here?" Kallin asked, eyes getting wide. "Kriff, I haven't seen her in over a year."

"Yeah, she's in trouble." Jacen said. "There's some ancient Sith entity that's after her."

"That would explain these guys." Kallin said. "Where is she?"

"She in that cave over…" Jacen began as he turned, but stopped when he saw his cousin running full speed out of the cave.

"Jacen!" Alayna yelled. She stopped in front of him, gasping for breath.

"I figured it out." She said finally. "I figured out why they want me so badly. I know what kind of power I have."

"What?" Jacen said. "How?"

"What do you know about the Jedi Revan?" Alayna asked.

"Revan the Conqueror?" Kallin asked. "He's a legend, a ghost story for young Mandalorians. They say he slaughtered armies and destroyed the entire Mandalorian armada during the Mando-Jedi wars."

"He did that and more." Alayna said. "He was a war hero, a super powerful Jedi, then was tortured to the dark side, slaughtered thousands, but was redeemed. He fought the original Sith Emperor."

"Where are you going with this?" Jacen asked.

"I getting there." Alayna replied. "Revan was married to another Jedi named Bastila. She had this rare ability to strengthen her allies in battle. The two had a son. And that son had a son, and so on and so on. Eventually they fell off the radar of Force sensitivity, but every once in a while their power would come back around. Then about fifty or so years ago, a young woman who was a direct descendant of Bastila and Revan married a merchant on the planet Lothal named Ephraim Bridger. They had a son, who married a Mandalorian and had a daughter. Me."

Alayna watched as shock spread over Jacen's face. "Wait so, you're saying you…" He stuttered. "You're a descendant of Revan?"

"Yes." Alayna replied. "And somehow I managed to inherit all of the Force abilities of both Revan and Bastila. That's why the Sith want me. I'm one of the most naturally powerful Jedi in almost a century."

Suddenly, the ground began to shake as a deep laughter echoed all around them. The temperature began to drop, and a wall of black smoke rose out of the ground. It opened like a curtain, and a shadowy figure made of smoke stepped through.

"Very good, child." The figure laughed. "Now come, let us end this pointless game. Come to Mustafar, and your true power will be realized. Then I can take my place as ruler of this pitiful galaxy."

"And if I don't show up?" Alayna asked with a defiant growl.

The man waved his hand, and Alayna nearly screamed as she saw her parents, bloody and unconscious, suspended in containment fields.

"Then I'm afraid your parents will have to die." The figure said. "Which would be a shame. They would still make good soldiers. You have three rotations."
