Chapter 12: The Beginning of Padmè's Training
A/N: No school for four days, so I have decided to get to a major night of writing. I'll be updating quite a bit of my stories, including this, Battle of the X-men, possibly a parted family, and I will start The Return of Vader 2: A Sith Empire Vanquished. Sorry if my writing is a little rusty. If it is, please throw out some constructive criticism. I hope you like all the updates!
Padmè woke up after a dream of her being a Jedi. She got dressed quickly, and went to the Transport Room that Mace had showed her earlier, and was their right on time. She got in the land speeder, and sat quietly during the ride to the hospital. She, Yoda, and Mace all entered the hospital.
She went to his room to see him sitting on the edge of his bed with his cast on his left shoulder and arm, looking painful. His face brightened when she entered, though.
"I got a mental message that I am your new Jedi Master," said Anakin, standing up.
"I can never surprise you, can I?" asked Padmè jokingly.
"Nope. But I can surprise you," replied Anakin.
"Can you really? And how would that be?" asked Padmè.
"Well, for one, I will only have this cast for a week. Barriss Offee, a skilled Mirialan Jedi Master, cam here last night and used her healing powers to make my arm heal faster. The second way is this..." Anakin said.
He wrapped his right arm around her, and pulled her into a deep passionate kiss.
They left the hospital, and got to the Jedi Temple. Anakin immediately led Padmè to the Meditating Room.
"The most basic skill with the Force is the simplest to achieve. You must clear your mind completely. Let every thought go, and you will be in a meditation state. This state starts your connection with the Force, and will later on not have to be used to make the connection," said Anakin. He continued, "I find it easier to let everything go if you close your eyes. It also helps to just focus on one single thing. You must concentrate all your brain power on that thought. Then, your brain will temporarily and unconsciously forget all of your other thoughts. Then you can let go of that one thought, and you will enter the meditation state. Try it."
Padmè started focusing on the final play of that football game. She focused very hard on it, and then slowly let it fade away. She started to feel a rushing force go through her brain. It was unstoppable. At that moment, she noticed how strong the Force really was.
