Chapter 1

The crowds went into an explosion of cheers and whistles as they saw there "hero" approach above them. For once they could see the very woman, the one who saved the galaxy, with the help of others up close. They waved their hands out to their idol, they whistled with joy. They would often chant many different sayings along with other people holding banners and signs that said mutable things. Few ships flew about in this section of Corusant, for it was restricted for today. Quite understandable for people of great importance were at this ceremony and so, they needed the best protection this planet wide city could offer. For there were senators, Republic army leaders, Republic leaders, Jedi that survived the final battle on the Star Forge and the Jedi that survived the whole Jedi Civil war as well were gathered here today.

Among the Jedi that were there for the Ceremony for the former Darth Lord Revan was Master Kavar, Master Vrook, Master Vandar, Master Atris, and last of all, Master Selwyn with her apprentice Yuthura Ban by Master Selwyn's side.

As Yuthura Ban stood beside her new Master she looked around and noticed the one that everyone was cheering at, the one that everyone paid so much attention to was the very woman that had snuck into the Korriban Sith academy, who befriended her, and helped her see the light, to see that the Sith was not the path for her. The one that defeated the Sith academy's master, Uthar Wynnwith ease. The very woman who she had fought against and was defeated, but was spared by the woman who actually was the former Dark Lord, Revan. Now, Yuthura respected Revan, the woman who was standing in front of her, waving to the crowd. As her thoughts went elsewhere, instead of the now, she thought "If somehow, I can repay her for the kindness that she showed me…….To help the former Sith Lord as she had helped me…."

"I'm so glad this is the last of this "Show 'n tell" that the Jedi Council are making me do. Though, perhaps I shouldn't be so hard on the crowed. It is kind of understandable considering this has been dark times and the Republic is in a struggle. Everyone needs a "hero" to look up to every once in a while. I'm sure I would do the same thing in their shoes." Revan thought these thought's as she waved to the crowds below her. Her smile was wide and showed joy. Though deep inside she really didn't want to be here, she wanted to be in her apartment, just sitting in one of her very comfortable chairs, watching the sun set over the beautiful sky scarpers of Coruscant, or taking a nice long shower in the fresher. Revan's thoughts came back to the now as she heard someone speaking over the cheering crowd. Her hand still waving out to everyone, her smile still bright, but her jaw was getting rather tired. "All I want right now is to slip my hand into the hand of the man I love…..Carth." Giving a quick look at his handsome face she gave a small wink to him, though quickly returned her eyes to the man speaking up ahead. It was Master Vandar giving a small speech to the multitude below him.

"I present to you today, Revan, the Jedi that was redeemed. That saved the Republic from extinction. She was the one that destroyed the threat of the Sith destroying the Republic for good and put an end to their attacks, and now, Revan once again is a servant of the Light and no longer clings to the title "Darth Lord of the Sith."

Once again the crowd went wild and cheered on their "hero" once again. Though they quickly went silent as Revan, their hero began to speak.

"I would like to thank everyone one of you that has come to this ceremony. It brings me great joy to see that so many are still alive because the Dark Lord Malak is no longer living. I wish peace and harmony and the rebuilding of the Republic to begin!"

The crowd went feral and threw up some of their hats in agreement to what Revan had just stated.

Carth stood there next to Revan and his thoughts began to wonder. "I wonder how she does it. How can anyone stand the constant waving, smiling, and the same speech over and over again and yet seem so joyful about it?" Carth looked at Revan, or also known as Alora Derrin as well. His eyes had a hint of joy in them and a small smile etched across his face. He wanted to kiss her, he didn't care if it was in public or not. But no, Carth had more integrity then that. He continued to stare down at her in an admiring way. Hopefully they would be able to spend some private time together soon.

Finally after a few more hours of rally's and speeches the day was over and there would be no more parading about, at least for now. But the day was not completely over for Revan just yet.

Revan had just made it to her apartment and was leaning over to insert her security card when she sensed, and heard someone behind her. Rising up she turned from her door and saw it was Bastlia. Trying to hide her disappointment and whatever emotions she was feeling at the moment she spoke to the younger female that was almost in front of her. "Hello Bastlia. What is it that you would like to speak to me about?" Alora asked in a kind calm matter.

Bastlia was quickly walking towards Revan and just as Revan finished her question the young female spoke up "The Jedi Council would like to have an audience with you….now" she said the last word with greater strength then the other words. She knew that Revan wasn't in the mood to meet the Jedi Council and would most likely try to find a way to avoid meeting them now and do so later.

Sighing Revan said "Very well." Alora began to head her way to the Council, when reaching them she bowed to them in respect and said "You wished to speak to me?"

"Ah. Padawan Alora, It is good to see you again, we do have something to ask of you."

"Yes? What is it?"

"We would like to conduct a study on you. To make sure you no longer hold the thoughts of the former Lord Revan. To make sure you are truly redeemed."

Revan thought about this and said "How long would this "study" take? What is it you want me to do?"

Master Vrook then spoke up and said "It will take about two weeks. You would be held in a jail that most of the people do not know about. Are you willing to do this?"

Once again Alora continued to think about it and finally said "Yes, though I wish to inform my friends, so they know where I am."

"I'm afraid that is not possible. This is to be kept secret. We will start this study now." These words were spoken by Master Kavar, and so, the decision was made. Alora would go in to solitary confinement for two weeks. There would be no delay, no interruptions, no nothing.
