Hello everyone. Sorry for the long wait. Here is chapter 8 and I hope that you will enjoy it. :)

While Nightfly began walking over to Obi-wan, Xander was curious about why the legendary Jedi master wanted to have a word with Nightfly. He was becoming more curious, knowing that it must be important as he decided to focus on training himself. He activated his Lightsaber, before he began to do some slow-motion swings with the weapon.

He also began to think about Shaak Ti, his former Jedi master as he thought more about how she had died on that terrible day. He wasn't sure, although he began to wonder if there was more than one Sith inquisitor involved in her brutal murder. He remembered possibly seeing two Sith inquisitors, the second being very trick to identity so far.

Meanwhile Nightfly has reached the Jedi Master, which led to Obi-wan requesting Nightfly to sit down as the teenager did exactly what he is told. He still wasn't sure about why Obi-wan wanted to talk to him of all people as he hopes to find out. Soon enough Obi-wan Kenobi began to talk to Nightfly, which led to the two having a big discussion.

"I can feel the force in you, Nightfly, it has always been inside you" said Obi-wan as he smiled at Nightfly. "You just need to learn, on how to embrace it".

"Yeah, well, it is easier said than done, it's going to take practice" said Nightfly as he nodded his head. "But still I have the force in me?, I don't understand".

"If I had to take a guess, your parents were Jedi themselves, too" said Obi-wan as Nightfly was shocked. "They clearly fell in love, got married and had you".

Nightfly was surprised at hearing his parents are Jedi, he couldn't believe his luck as he had a big smile spread across his big happy face. He felt touched at the fact that, they fell in love with each other, got married and had him being brought in their lives. He felt the urge to learn more about them, although he decided to just be patient for now.

"Whoa, my parents are Jedi too?, that is so amazing and awesome" said Nightfly as he smiled happily. "So, I bet that they've used Lightsabers, too?, right?".

"That's right, except, there is more to being a Jedi than Lightsabers" said Obi-wan as he smiled again. "A Jedi's real power is the force, always will be, young one".

Nightfly nodded his head in understanding, at the fact that the elder Jedi master is right about there being more to a Jedi than a Lightsaber. Despite hearing this though, he was still curious about his parents as he wanted to know more about them. He decided to ask Obi-wan Kenobi, hoping that the elder male Spix Macaw can tell him a story.

"Also Obi-wan Kenobi, can I ask you something very important?" asked Nightfly as Obi-wan nodded. "Well, it's about my parents, can you tell me more about them?".

"Your parents were some of the best Jedi, that I've ever seen" said Obi-wan as he smiled at the thought. "They were very skilled, they always fight together as one team".

"That's incredible, it's amazing that they fought together too" said Nightfly as he quickly became curious. "Did they also fight in the clone wars?, I heard about that war".

"Yes they did, they helped the Jedi gain important victories" said Obi-wan as his expression turned sad. "Unfortunely, near the end of the war, order sixty-six happened".

"That's terrible, what was order sixty-six all about exactly?" asked Nightfly as he became very worried. "Also, I take it, that my parents managed to survive that order?".

"It is an order for all clone troopers to kill their Jedi generals" said Obi-wan as he turned to face Nightfly. "Your parents, who were teenagers, survived it by getting away".

It is a news that brought both sadness as well as joy for Nightfly, who felt sad about the fact that the clone troopers were ordered to kill the Jedi. He felt joy at hearing, that his parents had managed to survive order sixty-six as the news made him sigh in relief. He held out the hope, that they are out there somewhere in order him to find them.

After hearing about his parents from Obi-wan Kenobi, he heard his name being called by Xander as he wanted to teach him Lightsaber combat. Obi-wan gave his permission, while also taking the time give his own personal Lightsaber to the young teenager. He watched the young Nightfly, who managed to hold the weapon in the correct manner.

The two teenagers activated their Lightsabers, which quickly led to the two practicing the art of Lightsaber combat for the first time together. They started off slowly, before they sped it up as Nightfly got more and more used on how to use the weapon. They continued the training, until Xander showed his experience by knocking Nightfly down.

Admitting that he made a mistake somewhere, Nightfly got himself back up as he and Xander continued their training while Obi-wan watched them. It's clear to the old Jedi Master, that Nightfly is still getting constantly knocked down as his inexperience shows. So he decided to give Nightfly a piece of advice, that would help him in the training.

"Remember to feel the force, flowing through you, young one" advised Obi-wan as Nightfly nodded in understanding. "Stretch out with your feelings, trust the force".

This allowed Nightfly the chance to close his eyes, while he took the time to relax himself as he began to feel the force flowing through him. When he was finally ready, he opened his eyes as he faced Xander with new determination before they fought again. This time however, it was Xander who got knocked down to the floor of the Falcon.

Obi-wan was impressed by what he'd seen, although he knows that Nightfly still has much to learn in the ways of the Jedi and the force. Luke Skywalker himself was impressed by what he'd seen from the two as he liked the Lightsaber combat. Xander was happy for his fellow teenager friend, acknowledging that he will get better in time.

Nightfly couldn't believe what he'd done, he was happy by the fact that he has finally learned on how to use a Lightsaber in a fight. Although he does admit, that there has been times where he has been knocked down to the ground a lot in the training. Promising himself to get better, Nightfly decided to rest as he watched Luke being trained.

It proved to be exciting for the young teenager, who watched as Luke was being trained in how to block blaster shots. It's very clear to him, that the young male Black Macaw is proving himself to be capable of using a Lightsaber as he continued block the incoming shots. Deciding to join in, Nightfly joined Luke in blocking the incoming shots.

The two continued to block the shots, until they were both shot by the Marksman-H combat remote that they were using. Obi-wan Kenobi decided to have the two train, by covering their faces with an blast helmet with the blast shield down. Luke himself was confused by this idea, until he learned to avoid trusting his eyes, but, trust the force.

Facing the Marksman-H combat again, the two activated their Lightsabers as they braced themselves for any incoming shots. They were briefly shot again, until Obi-wan told them to stretch out with their feelings as they began to follow his instructions. Luckily for the two teenagers, this led to them both blocking three shots in quick succession.

Xander was happy by what he'd seen, knowing that Nightfly and Luke Skywalker could become powerful Jedi if they keep this up. Nightfly himself was happy, before he handed back Obi-wan's Lightsaber back to the old Jedi Master as he sat down next to Xander. The latter congratulated Nightfly on his successful training as the two hugged.

Nightfly has every right to be happy, he has successfully fought with a Lightsaber and managed to block a few shots with the blast shield down. Although his training was just getting started, he decided to take the time to enjoy the moment as he heard Han Solo mention that they are about to reach Alderaan, which has got his interest instantly.
