Hello all u crazy people still reading this! Criticisms are always welcome! ^. ^
At Mos Eisly spaceport they docked their ship and went looking for a place to eat. Jessi was a little nervous, having never seen so many different creatures in one place, so she kept very close to Luke. They ducked into a cantina for something to their empty stomachs.
Jessi eyed a creature with three eyes coming toward her. She slid a little closer to Luke. The thing didn't look friendly. Jessi tried to staunch her fear and look confident. She took a deep breath, and suddenly felt... something. A certain power she couldn't place. All she knew was that it helped calm her down and she was thankful for that. The alien moved closer and balled a three-fingered "fist" at her. Suddenly it swung towards her head. She threw her arms up instinctively for protection, wishing with all her being that the power she felt would throw that creature away from her. She never thought it would do any good. A crash reached her ears, but no blow came. Hesitantly, she opened her eyes only to see the world blur as she was pulled out of the cantina. Half running, half being pulled by Luke, they rushed down a street, around a corner, then ducked into an entranceway. Thankfully, nobody had followed them.
Panting, Jessi slowly became aware that Luke, also out of breath, was staring hard at her.
"What?" she asked, still disoriented from the ordeal.
"How did you do that?"
"Do what?"
"Push the alien into the wall."
A light came on in Jessi's head, not helping the dizziness. Her eyes grew wide and her mouth dropped open. "I did that?" She paused, then grinned giddily. "Whoa!"
"Yes. I want to know how. Did you feel anything different?"
She paused, and then slowly nodded remembering the feeling.
"Can you get it again?" He asked eagerly. "Try closing your eyes. Relax."
Jessi closed her eyes. She tried to concentrate, but she was tired. She sat down and leaned against the wall behind them. Soon, in her sleepiness, her mind started to play tricks on her as she tried to focus. Her tired mind slipped from that focus, and feel into the power. Delighted but exhausted, Jessi let herself lie there in the feeling, the... living web, she concluded. She felt motion beside her, and realized she could "see" Luke. She could also see other people if she tried hard enough, but it was much more difficult. If she could only "see" Luke, then what... The answer hit her like a wave of cold water and she sat up with a start. No. It couldn't be. Not her. But yet...
Luke watched Jessi lost in another world, her back against the building. Her expression suggested that she'd found what she was looking for. He smiled. From what he had seen, she should make a good Jedi.
