Jedi Temple Library 21 BBY.

*Flashback

Sean currently had free time to study after training with another Padawan he knew. He was reading a journal which belonged to a long deceased and respected Jedi Master. His quiet time was interrupted by an elderly female human Jedi Master, who approached him.

"I see that you have found Master Qui-Gon's journal, Padawan Dontor." The Master, also known as Jocasta Nu said.

"Um, Madame Jocasta!" Sean nervously greeted as he quickly closed the journal and placed it on the table.

Jocasta took the journal from the table and examined it, before she turned to Sean. "Where did you find it?" She asked.

"I was looking for something to read, when I discovered it in the back of the shelves." Sean explained.

Jocasta put the journal back on the table. "He was one of the wisest Jedi Masters I had the privilege to know." She smiled, sadly.

"His methods always had me intrigued." Sean smiled before he sighed. "I wish i knew him."

Jocasta smiled and placed a hand on Sean's shoulder. "You remind me of him in many ways." She said.

Sean looked at her confused. "What do you mean." He asked.

"Well... For one example, his opinion was always out of steps with the decision made by the Council." Jocasta explained. "He was one stubborn Jedi. He always did what he thought was right, and that usually frustrated the Council and his former Padawan, Obi Wan Kenobi." She then explained while smiling towards Sean. "Like you."

Sean had a surprised look on his face. "Really?" He asked.

Jocasta nodded and then gave the journal to Sean. "I know that you will one day be a great Jedi Sean, but be careful if you decide one day to challenge the Council's decisions." She advised.

"I will." Sean smiled and got up from the chair with the journal in his hand. "Want me to put it back Madame?" He asked.

Jocasta shook her head. "No, keep it. I believe you were meant to find it." She told the Padawan.

"Really?" Sean asked with a smile. Jocasta nodded. "Thanks a lot!" Jocasta nodded and left to do her work.

Sean opened the journal and began to read it, while strolling out of the library. But not before a certain Togruta Padawan bumped right into him. With both him and the other Padawan tumbling onto the floor.

Sean groaned and rubbed his head as he turned to the Padawan. "Watch where you're going." He said. "You could've gotten us hurt, are you blind?"

"Well you shouldn't read while you're walking!" The Togruta Padawan scolded as she glared at Sean.

Sean got up and glared back at the Padawan. "And you shouldn't hurriedly run around the temple!" Sean snapped back at the Padawan. He got up and helped her up. For being sixteen years old, Sean was pretty tall. He towered almost a head over her.

Sean looked at the ceiling, before he turned to the Padawan. "Okay, this is not a good first impression. Let's start over." He suggested.

The Padawan Nodded. "Good idea." She agreed. "You go first."

Sean cleared his throat. "My name is Sean Dontor." He started.

The Togruta Padawan smiled. "I am Ahsoka Tano." She said as he shook Sean's hand.

"Ahsoka Tano." Sean pondered with a hand on his chin, before he turned to Ahsoka. "Master Plo has spoken highly of you." He then complimented.

"And he also told me you were a great dualist." Ahsoka complimented back before she remembered something. "Oh No! I was supposed to meet Master Skywalker at the Jedi Council chamber!"

Ahsoka was about run again, but Sean put a hand on Sean's shoulder. "Don't hurry like you did last time." He advised.

"But I'll be late..." Ahsoka started to explain, but Sean held his and up and cut her off.

"Judging from your pace, id say that you are late no matter how fast you get there." Sean explained as his communicator went off. Sean went to respond.

Plo Koon: Sean! Can you hear me?

Sean: Loud and clear master.

Plo Koon: Report to the Council Chamber immediately!

Sean: Will do master. Oh, and tell Master Skywalker that i found his Padawan.

Plo Koon: I will, just get here... And hurry!

Sean: Yes master.

Sean turned off his communicator and headed towards the Council Chambers, with Ahsoka following him.

New Mobotropolis. Secret Freedom Fighters HQ. 8:22 AM.
Day 233.
Year 3237.

An auburn-haired squirrel sat at the briefing table, pondering over how his wife and his infant daughter were doing. Would they be joyed when he returned. He then remembered hearing the news about his sister, Sally's return. His thoughts were interrupted, when an elderly Mobian Owl entered the briefing room.

"You seem to be concerned about something Elias." He said as he approached the Squirrel.

The Squirrel known as Elias Acorn, turned to the Owl. "Sorry Director Who. I was just thinking..."

"About your sister?" Harvey asked with a smile. "And please, just call me Harvey."

Elias sighed and turned to Harvey. "Yes... Yes i was." He said.

Harvey went over to Elias and placed his feathered hand on the squirrel's shoulder. "Elias, be grateful that Sonic and his team returned her home to us. Sir Charles is doing everything he can to get her back to normal. I assure you that she is going to be fine." He said in a wise tone. Elias smiled and nodded "By the way, how did the mission go?" Harvey then asked.

Elias got up from his chair. "Me and Agent Joker couldn't find Naugus anywhere." He explained as he put his hand on his chin. "It's like he... Vanished."

Harvey raised an eyebrow. "As far as you know, Geoffrey St. John has taken upon some of Naugus responsibilities, and we can't let him go without supervision now can we?" He asked as he went over to the nearby monitors while gesturing Elias to come over.

"Is there something you wanted to show me?" Elias asked as he approached the monitor. Harvey gazed at Elias for a second before he activated the monitor. The monitor showed Sean Dontor fight the Dark Egg Legionaries on his own with his green Lighsaber.

"After i received a message from Agent Queen of Hearts, I told NICOLE to hack into the local Dark Egg Legion base and she shoved me this." Harvey explained.

Sean deflected blaster-bolts back on the legionaries and even force-pushing them before he escaped into the jungle.

"Since Silver left for his own time and that Agent Jack is unable to perform for the team." Harvey started. "I think this Overlander could be our new Wildcard in our sleeve against Naugus, don't you think Agent King?"

Elias pondered over what Harvey had just told him as he continued to watch the footage of this Overlander. He only had one thought over this. Could this Overlander be trusted?

With Sean 8:30 AM.

Sean was sleeping silently in his bed and his droid, RB stood in the corner of the room on standby mode. RB woke himself up and made a few beeps while looking at his surroundings. The astromech perked when he saw that Sean had woken up. RB beeped something to Sean and rolled over to him.

Sean turned to the astromech. "Morning RB." He smiled as he got up from his bed.

Sean went over to a nearby table and put his Jedi robes on, along with his brown Jedi cloak. As Sean put his lightsaber on his belt, there came a knock on the door. Sean headed to the door and opened it, and there stood Marcos with a bright childish smile on his face.

"Morning Sean!" Marcos greeted with a smile.

"Morning Marcos." Sean greeted with a smile on his own. "Are you ready for your first lesson?"

Marcos nodded and smiled with excitement.

Sean went out of the room and gestured for Marcos to follow. "Come on then, step into my office."

Sean, Marcos and RB headed to their designated training spot.

"Did you have any breakfast?" Sean asked, suddenly.

Marcos nodded. "Yes, but why are you asking?"

"Cause i didn't." Sean admitted.

The training field 9:15 AM.

The Wolf twins were sparring with each other with their sabres, when Sean, Marcos and RB arrived at the training field.

"Alright, this is the place where your mother wants me to train you in the opening lessons." Sean explained.

"Um... Okay, but why?" Marcos asked with an unsure tone.

Sean gestured for Marcos to come over to him. "There were a few conditions i had to accept in order for your mother to let me train you." He further explained before he turned to Marcos. "But before we begin, I will need something from you."

"What do you want from me?" Marcos asked.

Sean knelt down to Marcos' height. "I'm gonna need your full commitment. You will need your most serious mind into this, work hard and when you fall or go down, you gotta be able to get up again." He explained. "I swear if you don't, then I'm out."

Marcos pondered over what Sean had just told him, and nodded with a serious expression. "I am committed. This is what i want." He said with confidence.

Sean smiled and stood up once again. "Then let's begin."

The twins stopped sparring and watched their conversation from a distance.

Leeta turned to Lyco. "What do you think they are talking about?" She asked.

Lyco shrugged. "I don't know." She responded. "But I'm curious." She then said as they approached Sean and Marcos. They stood at a safe distance from them so they wouldn't disturb them.

Sean instructed Marcos to sit on a nearby stump before the cub turned to his master. "Are you going to tell me more about the my powers Sean? The force is it?" Marcos asked enthusiastically as Sean knelt down in front of him.

"The force is not a power you possess Marcos." Sean corrected while Marcos frowned. "It is not something you can extract from an object. It's the energy between all things that surrounds and penetrates us, and you are strong with it."

Marcos looked confused. "I don't understand." He said.

Sean took hold of Marcos' hands and placed them beside him on the stump. "Your first lesson will be to connect with the force and open yourself to it." He explained.

"And how do i do that?" Marcos asked.

"Close your eyes." Sean instructed. Marcos did what Sean told him. "Now... breathe... And reach out with your feelings."

Marcos started to breathe softly for a few seconds, when he once again had that same strange feeling from yesterday, flow through his body.

"Sean, i have that weird feeling again." Marcos said with an uneasy tone.

"Stay calm." Sean instructed. "The force is trying to show you something."

"What's it trying to show me?" Marcos asked.

Sean placed his hands on the cubs shoulders. "Calm your nerves, and you will be able to see it." He said.

Marcos did what he was told. After a minute, Sean saw Marcos' facial expression change.

"Now... What do you see?" Sean asked.

Marcos began to see pictures of a jungle through the force. "I see... A forest." He explained. "No, a Jungle."

"And?" Sean asked.

"And i see an underground fossil and flowers, growing."

Which means?" Sean asked.

"The fossil feeds new life to the flowers." Marcos said.

Very good... What else is there?" Sean then asked.

"There is warmth and cold." Marcos said as he saw the sun, then Windy Valley. "Peace and violence." He then saw a mother bird caring for her baby birds, before he then saw a tree fall onto a nest on the ground, with eggs inside the nest.

Sean then stared at Marcos while his hands are still gripped to his shoulders. "And in between?"

"Balance." Marcos responded after a few seconds pause. "Some kind of energy that surrounds me. A force.

"And inside you?" Sean asked.

"The same energy." Marcos responded, before he opened his eyes and looked at Sean.

"The force is more than just a power. It's what binds all life together in balance." Sean explained. "An energy that continually speaking to us, telling us the will of the force."

Marcos looked confused at first, but what Sean just told him made sense. He smiled in understanding. "I understand now." He said softly.

Sean then stood up, turned around and gestured for Leeta and Lyco to come over. "Good, then let's begin the real training." Sean smirked as the twins appeared next to him.

Marcos only gulped at what Sean might have in store for him.
