Star Wars

Reincarnated as a Tooka

A isekai Star Wars story

Part 3d – Stathe Manor

The Force may have helped me come back from death, but right now, it is simply just confusing me

- Undryl Stathe, Corellia 21 days before battle of geonosis

Upon exiting the ship, Undryl saw a droid, and a human with it, standing there waiting for either herself or Baozi, it didnt matter. "Is something wrong ?" Undryl asked out of the blue. The man was briefly startled at the fact a Tooka was talking to him and he could understand her in perfect basic.

What unnerved the man entirely however was the mere fact that the Tooka in question was wearing the exact same outfit Undryl wore when she was killed. He composed himself and spoke. "The droid spoke of a code being used that hadnt been used in three years, the code checked out but when the Jedi code came through we allowed you to land here."

"Is that a problem ?" Undryl asked the human, it wasnt often she had to look up at a fellow Corellian, but this was too much

"It is, that code was reserved for Lady Undryl Stathe, and she is dead. So excuse me if an alarm was raised, but how can a dead womans code still work ?" the man asked

"Do you question the Jedi ?" Undryl asked in reply.

"I do not, that is why we let the code clear once the Jedi gave her own passcode." The man replied to her. "So I must ask you, who are you ?"

"I am simply known as Master Vanvaris, my cousin, Jedi Master Baozi Vanvaris, will speak with you shortly, he is here to attend an invesdtigation concerning my... Undryls death and to find the attacker." Undryl had to correct herself, the last thing she wanted was her parents head of security informing her parents she actually was alive in spirit but now as a rather adorable looking Tooka woman.

When the man at first did not reply to her, she looked at him confused. "Is there something wrong ?"

"There is," The man replied.

"Well, out with it then," Undryl said simply.

"To put it bluntly, you are wearing the same clothing pattern, color and design, that Lady Undryl Stathe was killed in. Showing up here while wearing this design clothing will bring unwanted attention to you Master Vanvaris" The man told her quite bluntly. At least he called her Master Vanvaris

Undryl counted to ten, and then spoke. "You said it yourself my good fellow, that I am indeed Master Vanvaris, my cousin is here to perform an investigation into who killed Undryl Stathe and why. I am here to aid him in that investigation on his request." Undryl smirked a feline smirk, "As to where I got my dress and outfit as a whole, I saw the holonet, and I liked the pattern, so I had my tailor make one for me. Was I wrong in doing so ?"

"No, you were not wrong, it is merely that trouble may arise and mistaken identity may occur when people meet you. They may mistake you for the deceased with that outfit on." the security officer replied. Undryl simply smirked at him and nodded without a word for a moment.

Finally she spoke a moment later. "I will be fine. I do not need a guide, I will find my own way. If you have any issues with me wandering the estate freely, take it up with Master Vanvaris, my cousin." Undryl said, it was a lie, but it was the cover story they had came up with on the flight there.

"Very well, I was about to send a droid with you but then I remembered, Undryl had requested her bodyguard, Shenniah Twang to take the droid to the Jedi Temple to give to Master Stardrifter." The security offer said, that made Undryl smile, so Shenniah did follow her last request. But did she leave the relic ?

"Where is Master Stardrifter now ?" Undryl asked.

"Last I heard she was in seclusion due to the death of Undryl Stathe, one could hardly say the two were close friends growing up. Master Stardrifter took the loss quite hard." The security officer then explained a few brief things concerning eating times and the current state of the family. Undryl, as much as she wanted to speak to her father and mother in person, knew better then to do so just yet. It was painful, but once the funeral was over, she was going to have to figure out something with her future.

"Thank you. That will be all, if you have any issues, speak to Master Vanvaris, he will be here soon and I have things I must attend to myself." With that, Undryl left him alone and headed for her old bedroom as the manor loomed before her.

Briefly looking about before opening the door to her bedroom. Undryl stepped into her old bedroom, everything was just the way it was. Tapia's scent was all over the room, and the bed looked slept in as well. Which meant that the Nexu was nearby and by look of things, was still very well kept.

Waving a hand at the door she heard the lock activate. The Force was useful. Now where did she hide that relic again ? Oh that's right. Scampering to the desk she felt around in the two top drawers before finding the button and pressing it. The nearby bookshelf slid apart down the middle without a sound.

A safe was behind it. Thankfully it was just a number lock, nothing too fancy concerning a palm scanner. Undryl wanted something that should she need be, certain others could unlock it. If they could find it.

Going to the safe, Undryl, now a Tooka realised she had a problem, being a Tooka meant she couldnt reach the safe controls on her own. Looking around the room she smirked, a chair could do it nicely! Using the force she pulled the desk chair to her side and set it in place before climbing up it like a cat tree and activating the safe control board.

The four digits were entered in proper order before the door slid open.

Undryl breathed a sigh of relief. The hilt laid within the safe untouched for the twenty years since she had found it.
