Chapter Two: Awakening

Obi-Wan Kenobi and his 18-year-old apprentice, Anakin, were standing in the council chambers giving the report on their latest mission when suddenly a loud noise was heard. Looking up, they saw a purple vortex opening up only for Anakin to catch something, or rather, someone in his arms. The vortex closed up and all of the Jedi were baffled by what had just happened while Anakin just stood there with a young girl in his arms.

"What in the blazes just happened?" Obi-Wan asked. The council just stared at the girl in Anakin's arms as he kneeled down to sit her limp body on the ground. The young girl stirred quickly as she felt cold flooring against her bare back.

Opening up her eyes, the young girl quickly sat up and took notice of how she wasn't at her home outdoors in the sunshine any longer. Standing up slowly and rubbing her head gently, she inquired, "Where am I?" The Jedi just looked at her before Master Luminara Unduli decided someone needed to speak.

"What is your name, youngling?" She asked Mikana. Mikana startled. She turned around and faced the older Jedi woman.

"Mikana. Mikana Knox, that's my name. Now answer my question. Where am I?" Mikana spoke with slight irritation to her voice. The Jedi Masters scanned her quickly to determine what she was feeling and what she was thinking. Mikana sensed this and blocked her mind as best as she could. None of the Jedi masters answered her question, but Anakin did.

"You're on Coruscant. In the Jedi Temple." He said. They all watched as Mikana did a double take.

"Meaning I'm no longer on my home planet. The last thing I remember was chasing my little brother and him jumping into the pool and passing out as I'm falling. Next thing I knew, I was here and I don't know how I'm supposed to react to this twist of events in my life."
