A/N: Hey ya'll I'm back with a new chapter for this fic. Much thanks to xInuyashaxAngelx for helping me, hope you update your fabulous fics soon.

On a side note, I think I'm going to try to start each chapter with a part from the past, like when before Kala is born and afterwards while she is growing up just to give you guys an idea of how she came to be the way she is. I hope you guys like this idea.


What He Left Behind

Chapter 2: How Do You Talk To An Assassin Droid?

"The council has come to a decision about what is to become of the two of you."

Revan and Bastila stood before the Jedi Council. It was not long after the mission of the Star Forge, the mission that had changed their lives forever.

"These feelings between you two are against the Jedi Code; therefore it is our decision that it would be best to separate you until said feelings are no more."

"No you can't possibly…" Bastila began, but Revan put a hand on her arm to stop her.

"And if we decide that we do not wish to be separated?" Revan asked.

"Then you cannot remain in the Order."


"Why must this happen to us, why is the Force so cruel to us?" Bastila asked when they had left to their apartment. She was crying at the hopelessness of everything that had been said.

All Revan could do was hold her until she had calmed. "Things will be alright," he said in an effort to console her.

"I don't understand them anymore; I'm beginning to see why you left the order all those years ago."

"What happened to you preaching about the wise teachings of the Jedi Council?" he said trying to crack a smile.

"I fell in love and they rejected it."

He sighed, "We knew that it would be near impossible to convince them not to separate us, now we have to decide what to do from here. Do you want to stay with the Order and their decision or not?"

"What can we do? I want to help the Republic and I want to be with you, why can't I have both?"

A gleam flickered in his eye, "Who says you can't?"

She gave him her famous are-you-out-of-your-mind stare, "The Jedi Council."

"No, they said we can't remain in the Order and be together, who says we can't help the Republic together."

Her eyes narrowed, "You mean, leave the Order but still be a part of the Republic military?"

"Yeah, be on stand by for another mess the Republic gets into, shoot we could help Carth and his crazy idea to reestablish Telos."

She seemed to think about it for a moment, then a smile graced her features, "And we would do these things together and we wouldn't have the Council stop us."

"No, we wouldn't, we would be saving the galaxy under no rules or codes or regulations."

Happiness filled her heart as she fell into his arms again knowing that since they could get past this hardship they could get through anything.

………………………….

The next day Revan and Bastila went against the Council's decision and left the Order.


"I know you believe waiting for him to come is the best thing for him and us, but I can't do that anymore. I'll find him mom and I'll bring him home and we'll be happy. You'll see."

The holographic image disappeared leaving Bastila staring at the space it had filled. Her hand covered mouth as tears spilled down her cheeks. Her face that had not lost its youthful beauty was creased with worry. She turned to look at the figure beside her.

"Why couldn't you stop her?" She asked.

"She's stubborn; once she puts her mind to something I can't change it any more than you can."

"Carth, she's gone on this foolish mission, what if something happens to her?"

"She's a fighter like her father, she'll pull through."

"What if she doesn't? She's the only thing I have left of him. If she leaves too, I'll have nothing left to live for."


I'd been in Hyperspace before but never alone. I thought I was going to go mad!

T3 I could take but what was my father thinking when he made HK!

I tried to make polite conversation because his vocabulary was beyond beeps and chirps, but he is crazy!

I had asked him if he was excited to go on this mission and he replied.

"Answer: I am ready to kill as many organics you require Mistress, but serving you is not what you would call exciting."

That kind of offended me, "Why are you here then?"

"Answer: Because Master Carth said by serving you I would be serving my first Master Revan."

"Query: I do not understand why serving you would be serving Master Revan."

Oh so that's how Carth got the demonic droid to follow me. "I guess because Revan is my father."

"Query: What is a father?"

I was rather shocked by that question. "You don't know what a father is?"

"Explanation: My primary functions are assassination and interpretation, learning the ways of meatbags is not something I would know."

"Ok umm, a father is …uh…I guess you could say Revan made me."

"Statement: If Master Revan made you and that makes him your father, than because he made me, he is my father."

"What? No! Look, Revan you he is your creator, a father is different."

"Query: How is a father 'different'?"

"Revan is my father because we share the same DNA. You know what DNA is right?"

"Exclamation: Of course Mistress Kala!"

"Ok, ok because we share the same DNA it means he is a part of me or I'm a part of him, which ever way you look at it."

"Query: But how does sharing DNA make Revan your father?"

"Ummm…you see Bastila is my mother, that's like a father only she's female. So uhh…Bastila and Revan fell in love and…by their actions made me."

I had no clue what I had just said but HK seemed to understand.

"Exclamation: Now I see, Master Revan and his mate Bastila performed mating rituals and indirectly formed you. Therefore Mistress Bastila is your mother and Master Revan is your father, which makes you a direct descendent to my master."

MATING RITUALS! I just nodded my head and said, "Yeah…I guess that is one way to look at it."

I mostly tried to avoid talking to HK after that.

I spent a lot of tine in the cockpit thinking about my parents and the stories my mother had told me growing up. I thought about my dad a lot and tried to imagine what it would be like when I saw him.

Somebody will lead me to his residence that is as grand and spectacular as him. He will come and ask who I am and I will tell him that I am his daughter. He will be so happy; he will hug and exclaim that he had only dreamed something like this would happen.

He will be more than ready to come back to the Republic with me. On the way back I will show him the bag I brought, the bag that is filled with pictures and holovids of me growing up. I will tell him stories of my childhood and laugh over my mischievous nature.

My mom will be so excited to see him again and he will be reunited with his friends. Soon after that my parents will get married and I wouldn't be illegitimate anymore.

I smiled over my imaginings knowing soon it would come true.

I fingered the two pictures I held in my hands.

One of them was of just my father. Hair a golden brown and piercing green eyes just like mine. He's smiling and you can tell that he is happy with who he is, it hurts to know that eventually he stopped. I like to look at that picture looking to see resemblances between us, but it is only the eyes.

The second is a picture of both of my parents. The stood together, his arm around her and one hand on his chest and the other grasping his. They were smiling at each other and you could see the love they shared reflecting in their eyes. I liked to look at this picture when I'm frustrated or have given up hope of a happy ending. But always one questions always remains in my mind, will I ever see them look at each other that way now?

A buzzer broke me out of my thoughts. We were nearing Jalven, the first planet on my list.


Jalven was a pretty planet, pretty dull that is. It had grasslands and more grasslands, no real technology from what I saw. I ended up having to land in one of the plains.

I wondered what my father would be doing here; this place wasn't exactly a swinging place to be. But on the safe side, I took HK with me.

I hiked down into a lowland area and soon caught the presence of someone near. My hand rested on my lightsaber but I sensed no real danger. And I was correct when running from behind the tall grass came a girl, or at least I think it was a girl.

The alien had leathery skin that was violet tinted and its hair was thick like many snakes twisting from her scalp which were a deep purple. The dress she wore was a dark shade of indigo; I guess violet shades were what this alien race was about.

She started stammering to me in a language I had never heard of; in fact it wasn't even in the Republic.

"HK, do you understand what she is saying?"

"Answer: Of course Mistress Kala, I learned this language when Master Revan took me here years ago."

"That's great, could you tell her that I'm not going to hurt her."

HK began to speak in the Alien's language and I watched her face, which seemed to calm, then she spoke again.

"Translation: She wishes to know why we have come here."

"Tell her that we have come to find Revan and ask if he is here."

HK did as I asked and then she smiled-showing teeth that were slightly blue- and jumping around while exclaiming words I, for the life of me couldn't understand.

"Translation: The strange meatbag apparently has heard of Master Revan and is wondering if he has come back, she apparently wants to meet him."

"Umm…tell her Revan isn't with us but does she know where we can find him?"

After HK relayed what I had said, the alien became somber and then spoke again.

"Translation: She says she has no idea where Revan is but that the leader of their group may"

"Suggestion: I believe that she may be lying and suggest that we blast her apart right here, I would enjoy watching her blood spill."

Yuck! "Umm…no HK we will not kill her, lets follow her so that we may find out where my father is."

"Resignation: Yes Mistress."


Apparently not all of Jalven was grassland, when you go deep into the valleys they have some technology.

The girl led us through the streets of the small city, rather like Anchorhead, from what I have heard of it. The city was small but there were people milling around and of course staring at me. It was no small wonder why, I was the only one who wasn't purple skinned.

She led us to the grandest building their and started conversing with a much older adult their. They talked in their alien language and soon she left, leaving me alone with this strange alien.

"Hello stranger, we are not used to seeing your kind around here." He said in perfect Basic!

"You're speaking Basic!" I said just like an idiot. But the man just smiled.

"Yes, Revan taught me the language so that if we ever wished to trade with the Republic we would be able to communicate, I'm slowly teaching the other Jalvens the language as well."

"Forgive me for being so rude, my name is Jakunesh, and I am the leader of these free Jalvens."

"My name is Kala Shan; you said you are the leader of the free Jalvens?"

"Yes, for centuries the Sith have been in control of the planets beyond the Republic, that is until Revan came and began to teach us the ways of freedom, he was the one that has freed us and now we are strong and can defeat the Sith."

Wow, I had no idea what my father had been doing the whole time he was here; he was saving another part of the Galaxy.

"Now, Sewanna says that you are searching for Revan, by your appearance I can tell that you are from the Republic and the weapon you are carrying tells me you are in fact a Jedi. So I must ask why you have come to find our savior."

I stared at him, not really knowing what to say, "Umm…well, first of all I'm not really a Jedi, I mean I am trained in the ways of the Force but my mother taught them to me."

"But that does not answer my question," Jakunesh stated.

Just spit it out I told myself, "Revan is my father."

Jakunesh was genuinely surprised by this statement, "Revan never mentioned he had a daughter."

I smiled sadly, "No he wouldn't because he doesn't even know I exist."

Jakunesh nodded his head, "I see…Revan never talked much about his past. We knew of his coming before when he was taught by the Sith, when he was evil like them. But he did mention someone who saved him, someone who gave him another chance to be good."

I smiled again this time proudly, "My mother." I informed him, as I remembered all of the stories my mom had told, of the times my father had said those very words, she saved him.

"Well then Kala, Revan keeps in close contacts with the people he has saved, always checking to be sure the Sith do not take over once again. The last we heard from him was a few days ago, he contacted us from the planet Resuun, there is where you may find him."

"Thank you," I told him, "I hope everything turns out well for you people."

"Good luck," He said to me before I walked out of the building, knowing my search might end soon.


Resuun was not a planet you would go to on vacation, the first thing that entered my mind when I saw it was forbidding.

Much of the planet was covered in a deep dark forest that seemed to beckon people to their death. I landed in a clearing I was able to find; once I did I felt the dark side of the Force pressing around me.

I had never felt anything like that before in my life, living on Coruscant and Telos did not educate you on darkness, and since the Sith had been driven out, wielders of the dark.

I was worried that the only way I would find my father was if he accidentally stumbled upon my corpse.

"HK," I called to the droid, "Stay behind and guard the ship, don't let anybody near it."

"Statement: Yes mistress, if any one comes near I will destroy them easily."

I was about to tell him good job, but then the thought occurred to me, What if he killed any men who are working for my father?

"No HK, better not, just knock them unconscious until I come back."

"Resignation: Yes mistress."


Walking through the forest was like walking in a nightmare. I heard the calls and growls of foreign animals; I was constantly in the state of alarm. I began to wish I had someone with me, preferably my mother, who had been through places like this countless times.

Suddenly I felt it, the presence of another life form coming. It was then that I heard the sound of and igniting lightsaber.

Three humans dressed completely in black, holding red lightsabers came charging in from the brush.

Sith-spit there are Sith here! I thought and in a second had my own purple lightsaber ignited.

I knew how to use a lightsaber well, I had sparred with training droids, Jolee, Juhani, Dustil and of course my mother. But I had never fought an actual Sith, let alone three. I was surprised by how much hatred they directed at me, and how easily the dark side of the Force ebbed from them.

The odds were against me, but I continued to parry one and then the other, attacking one but then swinging my saber behind me to block a blow from behind. They surrounded me, silently taunting knowing they had the upper hand.

Be strong, the voice of Jolee filled my head, you are the child of two Jedi who are both strong in the Force, that makes you stronger than anyone I know and stronger than them. Do not fear and you'll be all right.

I attacked them again, catching them by surprise. Because I momentarily had the upper hand, I was able to run my lightsaber through one of them easily. Now I only had to face two.

Blocking and lunging I worked furiously in order to defeat this battle. I called on the Force and used lighting in order weaken one, while placed the other in stasis.

Because one was frozen, I was able to kill him quickly, but the second one was stronger than I had assumed. Thrown off guard, I blocked his blow, but his blade hit my hilt which sent it flying from my hand.

I started to use the Force to call it to my hand, but he was quicker, using the dark side to push me across the clearing. Now he stood over me, an evil smile on his hooded face. I knew there was no way I could escape this one, I was going to die.

I'm sorry I never found you father, I thought, but the sound of another lightsaber igniting broke my train of thought. Great another Sith coming to watch me die.

But then another battle began between the remaining Sith and a man wielding a green lightsaber. He was very strong and very good, and had killed the Sith in a matter of about two minuets.

I just stared at the man who had saved my life, while he walked over to hand me my fallen lightsaber.

"Hey, are you OK?" He asked me.

It was then that I got a good look at who he was and my heart skipped a beat. All I could do was stare at his green eyes in shock. The same green eyes that mirrored my own.

My father's eyes.
