Erin has been waiting for this day for her whole life, she never thought it would come so early. Most apprentices do not become Jedi knights until they are much older than only sixteen (which by the way is how old Erin is). Just two months after Erin heard Master Yoda and Master Windu talking about her.

–Flashback–

'Master Yoda?'

'Yes Windu?'

'Master, do you really think it wise to have Erin take her trails at such a young age? I mean I was just twenty seven when I took my trails, and I was considered young.'

'Yes Windu this I know, but to prove her worth to her father is what she wishes to do'

'You mean Erin knows who her father is?'

'No, but feel it she does'

–Present–

-Erin's mind-

' I don't know what Master Yoda and Windu were talking about, I've never met my father. Have I?'

-Outside world-

It is just hours before Erin is to be called in front of the jedi council and given her mission, for some young jedi their last mission.

-Jedi Council-

'Erin you have spent many years training harder than we have ever seen. It has finally paid off, Erin we have called you here to give you a mission, a very dangerous mission. Tomorrow morning you will be on your way to a planet called Naboo. You will be the queen's personal bodyguard. Do you understand what I am saying?'

'Yes Master Windu. I do.'

'And do you except this task Erin?'

'Yes Master Windu. I will expect this task with great honor.'

'Very well then I suggest you say your good byes and get some rest.'

'Yes Master Windu.'

Erin bowed then turned and left.

-Later that night-

'Master Qui-Gon? Have you seen Obi-Wan anywhere?'

'No Erin, I have not, Why?'

'I wanted to say good bye before I have to leave.'

'He should be in his room Erin'

'Oh thank you Master.'

'Your welcome.'

Erin turns to leave then as if remembering something turns back around and says,

'Good bye Master Qui-Gon, I'm really going to miss you.'

Erin runs up to Qui-Gon and kisses him on his cheek, then leaves.

'Good bye........... Erin.'

Qui-Gon's words, though were not meant to be heard by Erin, echoed in her ears. His voice seemed to have pride, sadness, and some anger in the tone.

-Outside Obi-Wan's room-

Erin was just about to knock on Obi-Wan's door when she realized that she did not know what to say to him. Does she just say good bye, boast on the fact that she could be the youngest jedi knight in ever the jedi history, or should she not go in, not say good bye? No she had to say good bye Obi-Wan is her best friend she owed him at least that much to say good bye. Besides she will not be gone forever, right?

Erin made up her mind she was going to say good bye. She knocked on his door and heard someone say come in. She turned the door knob, and closed her eyes.

-Erin's mind-

'Well here it goes.'
