"Why did they stop?" The droids outside stopped pounding on the doors. By now Moff Gideon's expression had completely changed. He had this look of genuine fear- real terror in his eyes. This was something I'd never seen before, and it made me wonder if he knew somehow… Everyone still stood at the ready, but there was no need. Both my and Moff Gideon's suspicions were confirmed when this hooded figure dawning a black cloak appeared on the screens. I saw his image and gave an invisible grin. So he's come… he's come for me. Not that I'm surprised. I just spent the last of every day of at least three months with him…. I knew he'd come for me eventually. The others however….

"A Jedi?" False-Mandalorian lady let out a gasp. This caught Mando's attention, who turned on the spot to look at her. But I wasn't looking at her or any of them. My eyes wandered back to the shut doors. No one noticed right away as I stood up out of the chair, slowly making my way towards the barrier. Only Gideon observed this, and the biggest wave of anxiety and dread rolled over his sinister face. The tingliness wouldn't stop creeping up my arms and all over my body. As I approached the doors, Gideon shot me an intense, desperate glare. "Saoirse!" He shouted, trying to grab my attention.

Well, that did it. Now everyone's eyes were on me and him. Meanwhile I merely peered back at him from over my shoulder before turning my head back to the doors. Moff Gideon snatched this gun I didn't know was on his person and aimed it at me. This was stopped however by Mando shooting at his arms. The blast didn't go through Gideon's flesh but it was enough to make him lower the blaster. Carl wasted no time rushing in there, pointing his own weapon at Gideon's head. "Drop it!" He scanned around before lifting the barrel to underneath his chin. Well Carl was having none of that, knocking it back down before he could pull the trigger. He hit Gideon under the chin for good measure. Then they all looked to me again.

"Saoirse! What are you doing?! Get away from there!" The ex-shock trooper exclaimed. I kept my eyes fastened on the doors. "He's coming….." I remarked quietly. Only Gideon seemed to know what I meant by this. "Saoirse! Saoirse, don't let him in!" The man who once tried to kill me pleaded. Well, I'm not sure if "pleading" is the right word; this was more of a stoic command which he expected me to obey, for some reason. This caused me to blink to him though, a bit stunned. "Really? You're more scared of him than all these guys? Of him?" I motioned to scarred face man with my arm. Gideon scowled at me but didn't give me an answer. Instead his resolve stayed firm. "Do not let him in," this definitely was a command. I simply gazed from him back to the closed doors.

I think the others were beyond confused by now. "Let who in? Who are they talking about?" The other woman asked no one in particular. The only ones who didn't say anything were Mando and scarred face man; they were both watching me attentively. The tingliness in my body got very, very strong, and then- out of the blue- suddenly stopped. I shut my eyes, taking in a deep, cleansing breath. My lips parted on their own accord.

"Open the doors." "What?!" Carl and the Bo Katan gasped shocked. I said this, but no one did anything. Mando's helmet tilted downwards a little. "She said open the doors." "Are you crazy?" The other lady questioned angrily. Not wanting to waste any more time, I held up my hand to

use the Force to open the sliding steel doors. Mando, Carl, and scarred face man came to standing very near behind me as they slowly pulled to the sides. While they were all anxiously waiting for what would happen next, I stared out with kind, welcoming eyes. I'd be lying if I said there wasn't this intense feeling of happiness swelling inside me right now.
