CHAPTER TWO
Anja stood on the landing platform near the Jedi Temple on Courscant 12 years later. Tall and huge buildings surrounded her and sparkled non- threatening in the sunlight. Her eyes shifted back over her shoulder, smiling gently at the sight of her home, the Jedi Temple, that she loved so much and that she had shared with all of her friends. Master Ianol Eoni was arriving any minute on the platform, eager to interview the newest candidate for her apprentice. Anja was excited as well. It was every student's dream to become an apprentice, but only half were worthy enough to have someone choose them.
Her eyes quickly side-glanced to the other Master, Tei-Lon Autoia, who had walked with her out to the platform to help greet her older friend on her return home. Tei-Lon was the one who suggested Anja to Ianol, and had ushered her back to the Temple to decide if she was to choose her. Ianol had not had an apprentice in a long time. She was saddened that her own apprentice had grown to the Jedi Knight stage and was no longer in need of a Master to train her. After all those years she decided to pick up again and become a team with a new apprentice. Suddenly her strawberry-brown hair was whisked away from its neat brushing against her back. It whipped around her face furiously as she looked up with a squint to see the sleek and glistening ship that was gracefully landing before her and the Master. The landing ramp lowered with a sigh from the hydraulics and a tall, slender woman gracefully headed down the platform with a warm smile to greet her new apprentice. Anja turned to face a woman who looked to be in her early fifties. She had a kind and wise face that showed off many years of her strong Jedi training. Ianol nodded to her gently and her new apprentice returned it with the respect glowing in her gray eyes. "My friend, Ianol. May I introduce, Anja Theteve?" Tei-Lon gently bowed her head with a soft smile down at Anja, giving her a slight nudge forward. Anja bowed deeply before the respected Master. "Greetings Master Eoni, I am very much honored to have been chosen as your apprentice."
"I have heard of your promise in the Jedi ways. And I am grateful as well, to have you as my new Padawan." Ianol smiled warmly down at the young girl and Anja smiled back.
