Jordyn found herself shortly after walking through a corridor with Obi-Wan
and Mace Windu on either side. She was dressed in the same brown robes that
swept the ground, as her escorts, which was a great deal more comfortable
than a white hospital gown. They were at a temple on the planet coruscant,
far away from her home planet, of which she had no memory. The Jedi council
had requested their presence as soon as they arrived. Who they were and
what they wanted was a mystery to Jordyn, but she was eager to find out.
She still had no idea what these titles meant as she had not been told
much. "Answers will come in time" was her answer, when asking this. All she
had been told was that she was a Jedi Apprentice- a Padawan Learner, and
that she had lost her memory in a battle. She had no choice to believe
them, but a feeling in the pit of her stomach told her to trust them. She
felt nothing but respect for them. The way they spoke, the way they moved,
told her that they were highly respected by a lot of people and she was
thankful that they were looking after her. Everything they said sounded
neither strange, nor unbelievable. She had no memories of her past, but was
told that they would flood back in due time. She hated the feeling of
constant mystery and confusion but everything she was told felt right. But
she knew something was missing. Not so much something, but someone, She
felt that someone important to her was near, but, like everything else had
no idea who it could be.
She stood in the centre of a circular room. The walls were glass, showing a panoramic view of the world outside. She was surrounded by, what she guessed as the Jedi Council, watching her every move and listening intently to the answers she gave. She felt as thought they knew more than what she was telling them, as if they could read her thoughts. Yoda was questioning what she could remember and what she felt had happened.
"I don't remember anything before waking in that white room, where i first saw you Master."
Yoda shook his head. "Trust your feelings you should, what you feel, you must tell."
Jordyn thought about how she felt. As he had asked, she told them. Confusion, mystery, but strangely calm and relaxed. As if she had known all this before. A mutter spread through the room as she was dismissed.
Waiting outside for her was Obi-Wan with a smile. "From the look of the council, you are accepted once more. Anakin will be glad to here of your return."
"Anakin?"
"You will know soon enough. Now you must get some rest, you have a long day ahead of you tomorrow."
She nodded and followed him to a small star cruiser that was docked waiting for them. They boarded and headed towards a larger star ship, home to hundreds of Padawan Learners while in training. Once on board, she followed him to her room.
Before she entered she turned and asked, "Can you tell me something?"
He smiled. "Of course."
"Who am I? I haven't really gotten any answers and I know that I might be out of line, but I don't understand. What are Jedi? What is our Purpose?"
Obi-wan sighed. He motioned to her to sit down and closed the door. He sat, closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He knew she would ask, she was always very open and straight to the point. If she wanted to know something, she'd ask. It was a strong point of hers, but at certain times, it was a flaw. She still had much to learn, and if her memory did not return soon, she would have to begin again. He sat silently for a while as if trying to find the right words.
"Jedi are keepers of the peace for the republic. You, Jordyn were an apprentice to the late Master Lily Satine. She was a good friend of mine; we spent many years together training on this very ship. Unfortunately we lost contact just over a year ago. She travelled to many Galaxies bringing peace and order to all who met her. And during this time, our paths hardly crossed. She was greatly respected and dearly loved by all. You were lucky enough to have her wisdom. She will be missed."
He stopped for a moment, as if to gather his thoughts once more.
"You both were on a mission to the Centax system to offer a treaty to the queen of Cenovis. On arriving, the trade federation had invaded and you were held as prisoners for many days. A few Jedi, including Master Windu, my Padawan Anakin and myself rescued you. They discovered us upon leaving and a battle emerged. Master Satine was killed and you were injured. Anakin and myself cared for you for many weeks while you were in a coma. He would've been there when you awoke, but he was called into a meeting with the Jedi council that morning. When you awoke, however, as you have realised, you had no memory of the past. This of course is temporary. The Jedi Council requested your presence to evaluate your state of mind. They have accepted you and your training will continue until your memory has returned. I will take Master Satine's place. It is vary rare that a Jedi has two Padawan Learners, but this is an extreme case. Both you and Anakin are close to your trials, well you were. Once your memory has returned, you will take them, if you're ready. I will help you with your training and guide you, while Master Yoda will meet with you once daily to help you meditate. Now i must go, you need your rest. The rest will be explained tomorrow, you already have enough to deal with."
He stood, bowed slightly and exited the room leaving Jordyn to her thoughts.
