Consciousness came slowley for Wedge Antilles.

"Easy there Wedge, you just fainted." Corran spoke.

"Uh, I think I was halucinating." Wedge still seemed dumbfounded.

"No, Wedge, you wernt. Wes does have Jedi potentel. And as scary as the thought is, Luke is going to train him."

"I need a drink" Wedge was stil in deep disbelief. Gavin spoke up.

"Lets go to this nice little tapcafe I found. The Whyren's reserve there is of a particulary good year.

"I'll buy. Gavin, Corran, is this real ?"

"Yes Wedge it is. Youre going to have a bump on your head from that fall to prove it ."

"Sith Spit. Wes is going to be using Jedi tricks to pull pranks on us now."

Corran snorted in an attempt to keep from laughing. Wedge and Gavin stared at him with annoynce.

"Guys, the 'Jedi Mind tricks' as you call them, happen to be my specility. I'll be immune to them, unless Wes is exceprionly good at it.

The three friends went drank several bottles of Whyren's, and were still disturbed by the newest Jedi trainee.
"Corran, how are you going to pilot this shuttle with a hangover?"

"I'm not going to pilot it Wes, you are. In return I'll give you a little instruction on the way to Yavin."

"Ok, I'll pilot it."

"Good padawan"

"What did you call me ?" Wes seemed mainly curious about learning what he precived as a new curse word.

"Padawan. Luke recently found some records of the old jedi order. Padawan was the rank of a trainee before he beacame a Knight. Actualy, my father was a padawan when the purges forced him to go underground ." the shuttle jumped to hyperspace.

"Ok, Wes. Lets go to the ships hold." They walked into the hold and corran set a small coin on the ground and they both sat down on the floor

"Ok Wes, I'm very weak with telekenitcs, but I can demostrate how to move this coin." The coin slowley, and irregulary, moved foward across the floor until it hit Wes's boot.

"Ok Wes. Imagine the coin, now see it moving foward across the floor." Wes stared hard at the coin, nothing happend.

"Awww, I was trying to throw it at you."

"Thats why it didnt work Wes. You have to focus. It's not easy but can be done." Wes tryed again, concetrating so hard that he begain to sweat. The coin moved, barley.

"WoooHoooooo I did it I did it I did it I did it" Wes envolped Corran in a massive hug, knocking him to the ground.

"Uh, Wes. My wife would be jealous."

"Oh, uh, sorry Corran."

"Now Wes, keep pratcing on it for a few more hours. I'm going to go to bed. Try to not make that much noise.

"Aww, cmon Corran. Besides, I doubt I'll do much more than I've done so far."

"Maybe. maybe not. One thing is certain, you are trying to hard. Let the Force flow through you wes dont force it, let it guide you. Think of it like youre balancing a plate on a stick. If youre slow and careful it will work, but if you try to move to quick or force it to work it wont work for more than a second before breaking, and once you have praticed for a long time you can run along with the plate on the stick like a clown." Janson appeared mildly annoyed at the end of the analogy." Just focus and relax into it, instead of forcing it."

"Ok, Corran. I'll try. If anything, I ought to be able to pull pranks on Wedge. Night Corran"

What the sith was Luke thinking in deciding training Wes as a Jedi was Corrans Final thought as he went to sleep.
