Author's Note: I've had this fic for a while I wasn't going to post it until I got another part finished but I figured "what the heck." So here's another installment, with maybe more to come. Not that I expect people to be dying for this fic. ^.^ This goes out to Dawn and Regeane, cause that's who I'm writing it for. ^.^
Disclaimer: I'm sure I put one in the beginning. Go check it out.
Telepathy
It was a normal day at the Academy. Savanna, Dawn and Regeane were on their way to lessons. It wasn't very often that the Academy held group lessons, preferring the Jedi to learn on their own, but every once in a while a new skill had to be taught. Today they were going to learn telepathy and the three girls were very excited.
"Can you imagine the amount of trouble we could get into if we could speak mind to mind," Dawn said gleefully, a large grin on her face.
Savanna grinned back, "Oh yeah, no more having to go into hiding to make our plans. Right Reg?"
Reg looked pensive, "I don't know. If it was that easy people would be doing it all the time." However, there was a jovial light in her eyes.
They reached the clearing where the lesson was being held and joined the gathering of students. They waved to the few people they knew, but they weren't really all that close to any of the other Jedi trainees.
"Attention! Listen up!"
The call ran through the group and silence descended, leaving only the sounds of the jungle behind.
A tall humanoid stood up on one of the large flat rocks. He was wearing the normal Jedi robe and had a lightsaber clipped on his belt. The large almond shaped eyes and pale green skin gave off a delicate appearance, while the muscular build and graceful movements gave off the opposite.
"All right. I have to warn you that as simple as telepathy sounds it is, it is not. To speak mind-to-mind is much different than, say, controlling a mind, or misleading somebody. Now you must partner up with somebody you are very familiar with. In order to reach the mind you must understand it."
Savanna, Dawn and Regeane glanced at each other and moved away from the other students. Soon, all the Jedi were paired up with somebody they felt they were very familiar with. With coaching from the Jedi, Dawn and Regeane attempted the telepathy first.
Dawn closed her eyes and concentrated, calling up memories of Regeane and trying to get a feel for her mind. At the same time Reg was attempting the same thing. Savanna watched silently.
Dawn felt like her eyes had been closed forever, concentrating on Reg. Her brow furrowed, there was an annoying hum in the back of her mind. After a few moments she realized it was a song, a very familiar song to be exact. In fact, it was Reg's favorite song. The song continued to run through her mind, and she soon become overcome with an urge to hum it out loud. She attempted to think of something else but everything she tried was over rode by the annoying sound of the song.
Finally Dawn opened her eyes in aggravation. "Reg, what the hell are you thinking about?"
Regeane's eyes opened and she flushed, "Opps. Sorry, I kind of had a song running through my head."
Dawn's eyes narrowed, "Yes, I noticed. Since its now running through my head as well." She turned and glared at Savanna when a small chuckle escaped her. Savanna raised her arms in surrender, and Dawn turned back to Reg. "Well, it worked. Thanks so much for the lovely song," she said sarcastically.
Regeane laughed, "Sorry, guess they were right about it not being easy. And you're very welcome for the song."
Savanna laughed and Dawn turned to her. "All right then. Your turn."
Dawn and Savanna closed their eyes and concentrated. Reg watched in silence, she jumped suddenly when Savanna's foot lashed out to kick Dawn in the shin.
"Oww!"
Savanna opened her eyes to glared at the startled Dawn.
"What was that for?" Dawn complained, while she rubbed her shin.
Savanna snorted, and aim another kick which Dawn dodged. "That's for getting the stupid song stuck in my head now."
Dawn stared at Savanna, taking in the disgruntled expression, then burst into laughter. Regeane wasn't far behind. Savanna glared at her two friends and they rolled around on the ground. The laughter slowly tittered off and soon they were all silent.
"Well, we all know what we have to do now," Reg said.
The glanced at each other, climbed to their feet, marched away from the training area, and broke out loudly into song.
