Jedi Code.

Chapter 37

Nadia slowly woke up to her boyfriend's touch, he was stroking her hair and watching her. She turned her head and smiled sleepily. "Morning."

Luke let out a small grin but she could he was troubled. "Morning Nadie." He whispered. She yawned and sat up against the headboard. The covers fell down from her chest to her waist and she looked at the time. 8:24 am. She looked back at Luke who was looking at his new hand and he seemed to be in deep thought. She coughed, "Are you okay?"

He nodded, and looked up at her. "I need to tell you something about what Master Yoda said."

She furrowed her eyebrows. "Master Yoda?" he nodded, "The Jedi Warrior I went to find. He trained me."

"Your training isn't complete already is it?" She asked. He sat up against the headboard and turned to her. She noticed his scar from Vader on his chest, she touched it softly. "No it's not." He replied, as she traced the scar with her finger. He sighed, and took her hand.

"Nadia there are some things I need to tell you." He said with a wave of his hand a book came flying into his hands. She was startled for a moment as it was unexpected. He never usually used the force like that, probably because he wasn't so much experienced but now was different. She tucked her hair behind her ears. The book he held was at least hundreds of years old.

HISTORY OF THE JEDI It read. She thought. "Luke what is it this?" He handed her the book. "Here take a look through it." His face was unreadable. She took it and went through the pages slowly. There was thousands of words that didn't make sense to her. Pages on the history the great Jedi Knights, the clone wars, and how the Jedi worked. She came to a stop on the Jedi Code. Nadia realized what he was trying to tell her as she read all about the Jedi Code, and what it meant. For them.

There is no Emotion, there is Peace.

Ignorance, yet Knowledge. There is no Ignorance, there is Knowledge.

Passion, yet Serenity. There is no Passion, there is Serenity.

Chaos, yet Harmony. There is no Chaos, there is Harmony.

Death, yet the Force. There is no Death, there is the Force.

It felt like a lifetime before she actually closed the book. She sighed and turned to face Luke. He was trying to figure out what to say to her. "Luke does Master Yoda know about us?"

He nodded, "Yes Nadia. He does know about us. He told me that if I wanted to become a Jedi, we would have to break up." She closed her eyes at that last sentence. This is was what she was dreading.

"He said love is forbidden and that it's dangerous. If something ever happened to you or anyone else I care too much about, the pain and anger I would feel would consume me and I would be more vulnerable to the dark side."

"Loving someone as much I love you, could turn me to that path. It could turn me like Vader. Vader must have loved my mother so much for him to turn to the dark side. That's the only way I can explain it. Or he must have went through something. I don't know." He rubbed his face. "I just can't understand why Yoda or Ben never told me."

Nadia didn't know what to say. Was he saying that we can't be together anymore? "Luke, you don't know what happened with your mother and Vader. Anything could have happened to make him turn. Maybe Ben thought you weren't ready to know. I wish I had the answers for you." She whispered trying not to cry.

Luke took her hand in his. "Yoda didn't tell me anything about Vader being my father. I need to go back to the Dagobah and ask him myself."

She nodded slowly understanding and looked down at their hands, and thought about what that meant for the two of them. She would let him go if that meant he would become a Jedi. It would hurt her like crazy and she wouldn't know how to stay away from him if they did. But it wasn't just about her, it was about others. It was dangerous for them to be together.

"So what are you saying is that we can't b-be to-together anymore?" She stuttered trying to hold it together and clutching his hand. He refused to meet her gaze, he couldn't bare to look at her and see the heartache in her eyes. He could feel it in the force, the pain she was beginning to feel.

"I love you Nadie. You know that, and I want to be with you more than anything but I want be a great Jedi like my father was before me." He said confidently. She was about to pull away from him, but he tightened his hold on her hand. "Listen I don't want to choose between you and becoming a Jedi. I also don't want to become like my father was and many other Jedi before me, I will not let that happen. Not this time."

She blinked tears away and cupped his face in her hands. "Luke you don't have to explain it to me. I know being a Jedi is important to you-"

"Nadie, you are important too and it kills me to say this but I have to make the right decision on what our future will be like." He pulled her hands away from his face and held them gently and looked at her in the eyes.

"So what are we going to do?" she whispered again, she had to accept what will happen next. It will break her heart but she couldn't be selfish.

They looked at each other for a few seconds before he blew out a breath. "Nadia I think that-"

BEEP! BEEP! She looked beside her on the bed side cabinet to the comlink. She sighed, and picked it up.

"Yes?" She said, and looked at Luke who was getting up out of bed and pulling a tunic on.

"Nadia. Could you and Luke come up to the deck we need to talk about Lando and Chewie." Leia said.

"Sure give us about fifteen minutes?"

"Okay." She clicked the comlink off. She got out of bed too and pulled on a new tunic while Luke was getting dressed.

"So where do we go from here?" She asked walking up straight to him looking in his eyes, wanting to get it over with.
