((AN: Yes. Uh-huh. I don't own star wars, but Zayn, Nadde, and Meldra are
mine! Mwahaha! clears throat and I own Quanah, too.))
FUTURE, PAST AND PRESENT: CHAPTER TWO
It grew dark as the sun began to lower under the horizon, and they huddled closer under the blanket. They did not want the Jedi to find them.
Quanah, the Jedi, walked over to a puffy blanket. She sensed...a large amount of the force, here. She walked over, yanking up the blanket to reveal the three children. They hid their faces and whimpered.
Her throat was dry. The sight of the poor children was too much to bear. She calmed herself, after reciting the Jedi code in her mind.
"I am...here to help," She said, and her throat was still raspy.
"Are you...a...a Jedi?" Meldra asked, taking her hands off of her face and staring intently at her.
"Yes. How did you all get here?" she didn't want to pry, but she needed to earn their trust, at least.
"We...don't know. We just...met and found this place...we've been here since I can remember, and I'm...six now." Zayn explained, muffled by her arm.
"Come on. Let's get you all out of here." She tossed in a bit of the force, just in case they did not want to come.
"Yes, we should. Are the Jedi nice?" Meldra went on.
"But...we've been here...so long..." Zayn looked around. "But I know that living with the Jedi will be much better..."
Quanah sensed the force in this girl. 'It is very strong...and she is so young! The Jedi could probably mold her around...' She looked at the three, who were now standing up, the blanket still awry around their slim shoulders.
"My name is Quanah. I am a Jedi Knight." She stated, before beckoning them to follow her.
"A knight? I heard only the really good Jedi can reach that level..." Nadde spoke to himself. Quanah smiled a little bit, and led them out. She put her finger over her lips, pressing against a wall.
She turned into an alley. They crept behind her.
"Why are we being so sneaky?" Zayn whispered.
"The Sith—" she started, but then she pushed all three children into a small crack. "Stay." She commanded, looking up at the rooftops. She felt a tremor in the force. A BIG one. The children quieted, and a dark Jedi jumped down.
"Quanah, you have caused enough trouble as it is." He said. His voice was deep and throaty. He ignited a red lightsaber, while Quanah took out two green ones. He was dressed in a large black cloak, and his face was partially hidden by a scarf.
"By doing what? Turning a few of your Lords to the Lightside here, a bit of Sith killing there...?" She smirked. "I'm getting sick of you assassins." He lunged for her.
