A/N: Thanks for the reviews! :) I really appreciate it.
Tinuviel Undomiel: Yeah, I always thought that Kotor II should have had a greater link to Kotor. Just having the Exile be someone that followed Revan was unexceptable xP
Chapter 4: Where the journey begins…Who was I?
Was I Oliver? Kyros Orion-Jedi? Or simply the Exile?
I had spent the last four years wandering the Outer Rim, constantly in pain and confusion, cut off from the force…as if I was cut off from life itself…
I sit here on top of bed in my current living quarters, asking myself that question. Also, thinking…thinking of a lot of things actually, My parents and Master Onasi in particular.
Who were they?
I always had the impression that Master Onasi knew more then he was telling me.
Whenever I asked him about them, he simply told me that
"They...they were good people." But the look in his eyes told me more about his relationship with my parents then he ever would...
When I was fourteen, I had come close to finding out the truth…so very close…
Flashback: Jedi Enclave, six years ago.
No padawan was allowed to be roaming the enclave at night…
I had snuck out of my chambers, and went for a walk around the enclave. I saw Master Onasi, and I immediately ducked out of sight by hiding behind the giant tree in the middle of the garden. After making sure that he didn't see me, I got ready to turn around and head back to my chambers, having had enough adventure for tonight, when I heard Master Onasi speak. I looked closer and saw that he was speaking to some sort of a hologram, I couldn't see who my master was speaking to, because the figure had worn a cloak over to cover his face. However, I was pretty sure by the sound of the voice, that it was a man.
"So you're going to go?" Master Onasi said.
"I have to." The guy in the hologram answered.
"How's she taking it?" My master asked.
"She doesn't know..."
"What are you going to do then?" Master Onasi asked.
"I...I...I'm just going to go...I'm not going to say anything...I can't. It'd be too dangerous if I did."
"Will you be careful?" My master asked, clearly worried.
It was funny to me at the time. My master, the great Master Onasi, always so strong and confident, seemed like a small boy when he talked to the man in the hologram…perhaps that man was his father?
"Of course Dustil. Don't worry." The man answered, his face still concealed by the cloak.
"So...when are you going to leave?"
"In about a week." The man answered.
There was a pause. A few moments later, the man spoke again.
"Dustil, my son…how is he doing?
"Good. He's quite brilliant…He'll be becoming a Jedi soon…" I heard my Master answer, with a slightly proud look on his face.
Wait…were they…were they talking…about ME? They had to be, I was the only Padawan under Master Onasi…but…the man, he said SON…
If they were talking about me…then…could it be? Could the man that Master Onasi was talking to, possibly be…
Before I could finish my thought, the man continued to speak.
"Dustil, take care of him..."
"Of course, do not worry, I always will…"
"Good…" the man, said. "I have to go, remember, you can't say a word...Goodbye Dustil..."
"Of course, farewell Master…"
This is it, I thought to myself, I will finally have a name at least, a name of a man that might possibly be my father.
But before I could actually hear the name, I heard a rather loud ahem come from behind me.
Startled, I turned around so fast, I thought my head would have fallen off.
"Ma..M..M..Master Vandar?" I stuttered, quite shaken.
"Hello padawan Kyros, enjoying a nice walk on such a fine night like I am?" He asked me, with a twinkle in his eyes.
"Ye..Yes master."
"Good, nothing like a nice walk around the enclave on a beautiful night such as this…however, it is getting to be quite late…don't you think so young padawan?"
"Yes sir." I replied.
"Good then, best to be off to bed now don't you think?" He asked.
"Yes master, of course." I replied, as I bowed.
"Goodnight then padawan." He said as he walked passed me, and continued down the halls.
Before I headed back, I turned around to see if Master Onasi was still there.
Much to my disappointment, he had already left, headed back to his chambers.
I sighed in defeat as I headed back to my chambers…
End flashback…presentI had learned nothing that night. The only thing that I did learn, was that they were still alive…
"Heh, not much has changed has it?" I asked myself.
That is what makes me continue to move forward, to travel from place to place, never able to stop in one place for too long.
I won't rest until I find them…I felt that something was here. Even without the force flowing through me I could sense it, it was something…strong.
I feel that it is here, where the journey to find myself, and my parents truly begin…
That is why I went aboard the Harbinger in the first place.
FINALLY!!! I had a MAJOR bad case of writer's block. So, sorry if this chapter wasn't really good . This was by far the HARDEST chapter to write. It's because I had to write something that doesn't happen in the game.
Oh well, good news is that I already have the next few chapters figured out, just need to get em typed out and posted . Also, this chapter was hard, cuz everything that happened here has to lead up to everything that happens in Kotor II.
A/N: Revan and Bastila don't know where the enclave is, Dustil has just been being a bad Jedi… He calls them to update them on Council current events and to answer their questions about Kyros and what not. I mean, it's the least he could do after taking their son away from em. Don't ya think? xP
Well, R&R plz :)
