FUTURE, PAST AND PRESENT: CHAPTER 4

Quanah walked to a small metal plate next to the door. She pressed it down with her hand.

"DNA confirmation complete. Welcome, Quanah." It announced, and the hissing sound of the doors echoed down the alley.

Inside, there was a tall ceiling, with many lamps and such hanging from the beams. On the floor, a small starship was parked. It probably could fit about ten people, at most. It had a circular shape to it, and it was silver and blue.

Quanah walked up and lowered the ramp, and they all went in. Most of the interior was brown and black, but the common room was brightly colored, with carpet. Zayn looked at everything in awe, and Quanah walked towards the cockpit.

Zayn, Meldra, and Nadde almost fell over when the ship jerked up. Quanah sat in the large seat, pressing several levers up and pushing some buttons. The ship turned, and went out of the slit in the building. Zayn perched on the co-pilot seat, watching as they soared ever higher above the Tanoak skyscrapers. It was night, and the lights were starting to turn on.

The ship was caught in conflagration from exit, and was going extremely fast. Quanah typed in some code, and got up from the chair.

"How long of a trip is it to...The Jedi place?" Zayn questioned

"It'll be about two days, maybe less if we don't run into any pirates," Quanah said, looking at the controls as they slipped into hyperspace. Zayn almost fell over, but fortunately she was holding onto a pole.

Quanah walked over, beckoning Zayn to come to the common room. Meldra and Nadde were sitting on a big couch, and they also asked the same question. When they heard two days, Meldra sighed and Nadde got up.

"I'll show you guys the quarters." They followed her, and stared into the room.

"So much room," Nadde mumbled.

"Yeah..." Zayn agreed.

Pretty soon, Zayn was bouncing on one of the beds and had a small number of belongings on the dresser. The only clothes she owned were the ones she had on, and that applied to all three children.

Quanah looked in some old bins that were lying around, and she found some of her old clothes. It was mostly the fashion of Rankin, the planet where the best Jedi academy on the outer rim was.

Zayn threw on the smallest outfit, which fit her perfectly. It consisted of a beige shirt with frills, along with black pants that barely reached her calf. She also had on a large-rimmed hat made of the white grasses that grew on Rankin.

Nadde had on a tight navy-colored vest over a plain white shirt, with baggy blue pants. He also had on sandals, made of the same material as Zayn's hat.

Meldra had on a similar outfit to Zayn, but the shirt was light green.

As the ship banked on a turn, They all gathered at the bridge and watched as the stars flew by.
