Disclaimer: Disney and George Lucas own Star Wars. I don't. Thus, I don't make a cent off of this work. The only thing that is mine, is the plot and my original characters (OC). This goes for the rest of the chapters, too.

Chapter 1. Another Gone
The Jedi Council was waiting. Their strict faces were rather unsettling. Well, maybe to everyone else.
Fortunately, Cheri Stardust wasn't everyone else. She briefly wondered how the Jedi would take this announcement. /Nah. Who cares anyway?/
She walked into the council room. She showed absolutely no emotion.
"Knight Cheri Stardust, you may say you announcement."
/What did they think I was going to do? Shout the ABCs?/
"Thank you Master Windu. Due to some major problems I have come across, I am leaving the Jedi Order."
The masters in the room gaped. And gawked depending on which one. She was leaving?
"Young Knight, why would you do this? You cannot come back once you have left," demanded a master.
" What did you Master say about this? " cried another.
The Knight smirked. "My master gave me her blessing. She was quite proud of me."
" What?! "
Her almost perfect unemotional facade fell. "I'm getting married!" She was happy and at peace which considerably confused more of the masters.
"Attachment is not allowed!"
" Duh. Why do you think I'm leaving? " by now she was laughing pretty hard.
"Marrying whom,are you?" Asked Yoda.
" A person. What? I'm just being cryptic like the rest of you. "
She chuckled.
Mace was furious. "You will need to return your lightsaber immediately."
Cheri cheerfully held out her lightsaber. Master Yoda's pointed ears drooped. "Change this, you can. Willing, you are not."
"Master Yoda, I know what lies ahead of me if I continue with the Jedi. It may be my children's destiny to be here, but it is not mine."
" Part of the Lost you will be. "
"Thank you masters. I will miss the Jedi. I will be willing to work with you if the time comes. However, my wedding is in 12 hours so I must be on my way. " she grinned as she walked toward the doors.
"Cheri, may the Force be with you." offered Plo Koon.
" And you Master. "
The doors slide shut. Another Jedi was gone.
