Lightsabers hummed all around. Apprentices and padawans practiced their skills. One pair in particular drew attention from many in the room. A tall teenage boy and a younger teen age girl sparred over on a corner mat. The boy seemed to be enjoying himself the girl though was struggling to keep up and parry her friend's strikes.
"You've been practicing Levan," the boy said when the two locked in a cross of blades. They were green and blue snakes fighting for control over the other.
"Thanks for noticing," Levan replied ", Still it appears that I'm still not at your level, Anakin." She and Anakin broke apart and landed near the edges of the mat. She Force pushed Anakin he almost fell out. "Careful," she said with a grin ", you don't want to fall out." Anakin let out a laugh flipping towards the center he charged Levan. He quickly took the offensive.
"And you might want to keep your talking to a minimum my friend," he replied slashing down. Levan ducked to the left pulling her lightsaber down and right at Anakin's ankles. He jumped up and back. Levan slid to the inside of the mat gaining back lost ground, but as she got up she saw blue right in front of her face. She turned off her lightsaber and dropped it on the ground. Anakin then turned off his and bowed. Levan did the same. The group around started to disperse.
"You seemed to put up quite a show, young ones." The two turned to see Master Obi-Wan and Master Yoda standing before them. The two bowed in respect.
"Quite good, both you young ones are. Improving, yes," Master Yoda said with a smile.
"Th…thank you Master," Levan said amazed to receive such a compliment from a Master.
"Yes, Master thank you," Anakin said, although not with as much respect, almost as if he had expected it. Levan was surprised, but she didn't show it. Anakin was close to becoming a knight, but he should still show respect.
"Anakin," Master Obi-Wan said", you will need to come with us. We have an assignment. Master Yoda will brief you on the way." He nodded towards Levan and walked out. Master Yoda floated on his hover chair next to Master Obi-Wan's shoulder. Still stunned from Master Yoda's compliment Levan decided to go meditate. She walked out of the training room and into the halls of the Temple.
