Chapter 4 Back Attack

Starlette made her way for the garden. She could have sworn she had just seen that stupid ninja. Now where did he go?

Unknown to her; someone was coming up behind her.

"When I find that stupid assasion I'm going to chop him into a million pieces! I'll teach him to-"

She stopped short when someone pounced her from behind. The two tussled on the ground. While they rolled along she snatched her lightsaber from her belt. (She had changed into her Jedi robes before she went out.) and turned it on. She was able to see that her attacker was undoubtably her enemy. It looked like that ninja before only it wasn't the same one. This one had two red lightsabers.

As they rolled along Starlette realized they were getting very close to the small pond in the garden. Instead of rolling along until they splashed into the pond she decided she would use the Force to send him flying. Unfortunately the assasin had the same idea.

The two wound up sending eachother flying. The assassin fell into the pond and Starlette hit a tree.

The asassin quickly stood and continued to attack. For a moment Starlette was knocked out but she quickly snapped out of it. But when she did the assassin was all ready flying through the air toward her. She reached for her lightsaber but it was gone. As the assassin came down she lept out of the way. The assasson wound up flying flat into the tree.

Starlette looked around frantickly for her lightsaber but she couldn't find it.

"Oh no.." she said out loud.

"Oh, yes," a voice from behind her said.

When she turned she got kicked in the forehead. She fell back hitting a rock as she hit the ground. For an instant she was dizzy then she was back to normal, not that it mattered. The next instant she was lifting into the air, the assassin was force choking her! Her fingers wrapped around her throat. Things started to darken around her. This is it...

The next moment she fell. Her eyes didn't open to see what was happening. She heard a lightsaber buzz to life and someone scream.

Then it was silent. Then someone picked her up. Great.. She thought. Obi-Wan saved me and now I'm going to get a lecture.. Her eyes opened a little... it wasn't Obi-Wan!

The person who held her was a handsome young man with black hair and red eyes. He wore a dark brown Jedi robe and a red sweat band around his forehead.

She was silent. Her eyes looked down. He held a red double bladed lightsaber in his hand.

She gasped. A Sith! Wait.. If he's a Sith why is he wearing a Jedi robe?

"Are you all right?" he asked.

"I-I'm fine.." she answered quietly. She blushed slightly.

Starlette looked around. The assassin lay dead on the ground.

"What are you doing out here?" the Jedi asked.

"I was-"

"Starlette!" Called a familar voice.

No sooner then the voice had called the owner of it appeared.

"M-Master Yoda!" Starlette stammered.

The old Master said nothing, he only eyed the young man suspicously.

"I-I-I." Starlette's face turned beet red as she realized she had been caught in a rather ackward moment. "P-put me-me down!"

Starlette scrambled out of the boy's arms and stood to her feet.

Yoda still said nothing.

"M-Master Yoda this is, uh, uh.."

"Damean." the young man answered. "Damean Calidad."

"Damean?" Yoda repeated, "Told me so much about you, Obi-Wan has."

Damean bowed, "I am flattered I have been mentioned to such a great Jedi Master as yourself."

There was long silence between them all, Yoda's eyes strayed to Starlette. This made her extremely nervous.

"Well um, now that we all know each other, I think I'll be going." Starlette made an attempt to walk away.

"Have a word with you, I would like." Yoda said to her.

Damn. She thought. "O-ok."

When they came to Yoda's appartment the first thing she asked was, "Am I in trouble?"

"Yes," Yoda answered, "but not in the way you think."

Starlette fidgetted nervously, "What do you mean?"

He didn't answer at first. He just sat there quietly, making circles in the air with his stick, "After you someone is." he finally answered.

Huh? "What? Me? Why?"

He didn't answer.

Silence.

Then he spoke, "Move you to a different room, we would like."

Why did he avoid my question? "Why?"

"For the safety of the others, precautions we must take."

Is there something wrong with me? "O-ok if that's what you think is best."

Yoda nodded.

Or... "Where's my new room?" she asked. is there something...

She was surprised by his answer, "Here."

...He doesn't want me to know?
