Chapter Two: Formation of a Solution


The Jedi Council was more in an uproar than ever before. The results of the Lab Test were finally in; it had taken three days to analyze the sample. The results were outstanding.

Yoda stood up from his chair, and stood in the middle of the room, to address the council. Nobody really knew what was going on, so Yoda was forced to brief everyone on the situation. "Unexplainable, the results are," Yoda started. "Gifted in the ways of the Force, the child was." The council had already accepted this fact, but were still clueless on what the big deal was, why the kid was so out of control, and so powerful. Yoda turned the attention over to Qui-Gon, who went into detail about the child.

"What Yoda says is true. However, this is no ordinary child. This child's midichlorian count is off the wall, in the 20-30 thousands. Not even Master Yoda's count is that high. How this happened, we do not know. We only know that the child was created essentially from the Force itself. For some reason, the Force created life in the child. However, this is not the only case."

The council was stunned. More children meant more destruction, and more of their utter involvement in the crisis. It was beyond doubt that the galaxy would blame the Jedi Order for what is happening, what will happen in the future.

Qui-Gon continued, "There was another incident late last night, in the Bolvarian System, and another this morning in the Cryll System. I recommend that we make a permanent team that will study this phenomenon, and protect the children from the destruction they can cause."

Mace had a stern look on his face. But he finally spoke. "I recommend that Qui-Gon lead this team. He is very knowledgeable in the Force, and seems to know more about this than we do. He and Obi-Wan should monitor the children, and help them any way they can. The council agreed, and Qui-Gon nodded. "Obi-Wan and I will leave as soon as possible, for the Cryll System. The child in the Bolvarian System died earlier this morning. A sad loss, but we still have time to help the Cryllian child." The council agreed once more, and the meeting was dismissed.


Obi-Wan was happy to hear that he was on this assignment. He hadn't had many field missions, and was happy to be able to help the children. "Master, what was it that the Bolvarian Child was able to do? I mean, they are all different, are they not?" Obi-Wan was very curious, a sign that he was becoming impatient.

"Yes, my padawan, they are all different," Qui-Gon answered him. "The Bolvarian had extreme Telekinesis. He had total control over any object. In his rampage through the Capital City on Bolvaria, he pulled the planet's moon towards the planet, flooding the entire planet, and eventually crashing down, ripping the world to shreds. The planet is now barren, and destroyed. No survivors." Qui-Gon went silent for quite some time after that, most likely grieving for the billions of lives lost.
