Stormravyn-Part 3
Disclaimer: I have taken most of these characters out of the tool chest that is Star Wars. I will return them, good as new, when I have finished building my story.
Setting: As I'm sure I said before, this is about 20 years after ROTJ
YAVIN, THE 4TH MOON
It had been three months since Stormravyn deWinter had come to the academy. As of yet, she had no really close friends, except perhaps Tenel Ka. Surprisingly, those two got along almost better than Jaina and Jacen. At the moment, Jaina, Jacen, Lowie, Tenel Ka, and Stormravyn were all sitting in a grassy clearing a few kilometers away from the Academy itself. Jaina was looking up at the stars, thinking about Zekk, and his quest to redeem himself as a bounty hunter. Jacen was looking for wild things (as usual) and Lowie was climbing trees (as usual.) Tenel Ka and Stormravyn were skipping rocks in the water, and talking.
"Where do you come from, Stormravyn? You've never mentioned your family."
"That's because I don't know precisely who they were. All I know is that both of them were high-standing Imperial officers. That's all the man who raised me would tell me. At least, about my parents. He told me a great many things, most of which I doubt the truth of."
"Oh, I see. Do you wish you knew your family?"
"Sometimes, yes, sometimes, no. I'd like to know who they were, and as to wanting to meet them, I don't know. Sometimes I long for a mother's love, and others, I wonder if an Imperial officer could have such love. I just don't know."
They sat in silence.
"Tenel Ka?"
"Yes?"
"Do you...like your family?"
Tenel Ka looked at her, surprised. "Well, I don't quite know how to answer you, Stormravyn. Sometimes I do, sometimes I frankly do not."
"Oh." They lapsed into silence once again.
Jaina looked at the stars, wondering where Zekk was, and how he was doing. Then she heard a shrill whine. Everyone jumped up. All reached for their lightsabers, except Stormravyn, who was still in the process of building hers. She reached for a rock to throw.
Three TIE fighters landed in the center of the clearing. They opened, reveiling two stormtroopers, and someone who was hooded, so they couldn't see the person's face.
"01863, 05123, leave immediately." the third figure said. A deep-toned, yet definately feminine voice. "I wish to speak to the young Jedi alone."
"Lady..."
"Do you dare question my orders, 05123?"
"N-no, Lady.""Go a ways away, and await further orders. Make sure you cannot hear me, and set your comlinks on the ground so you cannot hear what we are saying."
"Yes, Lady."
"As you wish, Lady."
As soon as the two stormtroopers were gone, the woman removed her hood. She had sharp, calculating blue eyes, and very long white hair. But she didn't look old. Far from it. Excepting the hair, she could have been sixteen.
"Who are you?" Tenel Ka asked.
"Who am I? Sometimes I myself do not know. Now, they call me Lady Grisabella, Admiral and High Intelligence Officer of the fleet of the Remnants of the Empire, also known as simply the Remnants. Many years ago, I was much, much more. Now, tell me if I am correct in my guesses." She pointed at Jaina. "You are Jaina Solo." She pointed at Jacen. "You are Jaina's brother, Jacen Solo." She pointed at Lowie. "You are Lowbacca of Kashyyyk." She pointed at Tenel Ka. "You are Tenel Ka, princess of Hapes. Am I correct in those guesses?"
"Yes," Tenel Ka said. "Why do you wish to know?"
"The Dark One has a great.....interest in all of you, especially the twins. I had to make sure I had the right people. Whatever you have been told about the Empire, you must know that some of us are just."
"I have no reason to doubt that. But the Empire, as a whole, was evil."
"Even I cannot deny that. And I have served the Empire since I was very young."
"To the point, though. You didn't guess our companion."
"I don't need to guess. I know."
"Then who is she?"
Lady Grisabella turned to look at Stormravyn.
"She is Kirjava, or Kirajava, Princess of Darkness, Queen of Shadows, Heiress to the Empire."
