Chapter 2, "The slicer."

POV: Jason

A day passed after the briefing.I was asleep in a room when a ship arrived and landed, waking me from my sleep. I proceeded to turn over to try and get more sleep as I had lost some of it due to my wound.

I heard the door slide open and a voice say "Wakey wakey! Time to get up, Skirata!".

joi Yoan...The slicer.I thought, remembering who she was. I groaned, turned over and sat up. I went over to a chair and put my shirt on.

"Oh same shirt as yesterday, nice!" Joi said sarcastically.

I sighed, "Soldiers don't usually have the liberty of a fresh pair of clothes.".

She shrugged her shoulders, "I guess...".

I walked past her and she followed behind me. There was a silence as we walked down the corridor to the armory.
"Soooo. Why'd you join the rebell- I mean how are you?" She stammered, trying her best to start a conversation.
I gave her a look. "Sorry... I'm not good at improvisation or small talk." she said.

I chuckled and said "No, it's probably because I make myself seem unapproachable. Maybe I am.".

Joi laughed. "So. Why did

you join this rebellion Joi?" I asked her.

"My father was found out to be a rebel sympathizer...When the empire came for him, my mother hid me in a closet. They took my father but one of the imps wasn't satisfied. He grilled my mom then just said she was a rebel sympathizer too. And then off they went…" She said her voice getting quieter as she spoke.

"I'm...sorry." I said. We entered the amory.

"No, it's fine." she responded. I moved over to where my armor was.

"You know, I never had a father. It's always been just me and my buir. That's at least what she told me…". I started to put my armor on. "But I think you should know your father would be very proud of you, for doing the right thing.

If I was in your situation I most likely would have gone to the opposite side." I raised my hands and pointed to my armor, "As you can see.".
She smiled and said "Thank you. That means a lot." She put her hand on my shoulder "And you may think you're a bad person, but as you have shown me over the past

few weeks, people change." She said.

I half smiled and said, "Thanks for thinking so, but everything I've done wasn't on that file, one good act doesn't fix that." She turned to walk out, "Alright , get ready. We need all the time we can get. She said.

"Also, Try to do that vaporize thing more, it'll save us time." She told me. "Well I can't really do that on command…" I responded. "Learn!" she shouted, walking further away. "Will do…" I said sarcastically.

Chapter 2, end.
