Death's Chosen Knight

Chapter 2

Rattatak, 47 B.B.Y.

In a cave on the war-torn world of Rattatak, two people were inside a cave training with green glowing blades. The first was an older human male with brown hair, dark green eyes, pale skin with tattoos on his chin and the sides of his nose. Next to him was a young teenage woman who appeared to be human, the only difference was that she had grayish-white skin, ice-blue eyes, silver-blonde hair, and purple-bluish tattoo-like markings on the side of her head and near her mouth. She is a humanoid alien known as a Dathomirian.

The human male was a Jedi master, who was currently training the young woman as his padawan. The young woman soon began to feel dizzy and she stopped to regain her composure. The Jedi master turned to his padawan and asked, "Are you alright Asajj?"

The young Dathomirian looked at her master and said, "I am fine Master Narec, I just got dizzy is all. I am probably just hungry is all."

Ky Narec looked at his padawan in concern but nodded and went to prepare them something to eat. Ky had thought about how he found young Asajj after the criminal and slave owner Hal'sted had been killed in a raid from Weequay Pirates. He had watched in shock as a scare young Asajj Ventress had used to force to push the pirates off of a cliff in self-defense and he knew that he needed to train Asajj. Since then, Ky had come to see Asajj as a daughter over the past couple of years. Ky watched in the distance as a small pirate vessel landed and wondered if he should steal the ship and get both him and Asajj off of Rattatak and move them to Coruscant instead. He pushed the thoughts aside for a moment as he finished making the meal and brought it to Asajj. He watched as she got up to grab the food, only to collapse to her knees from another wave of dizziness.

Ky dropped the plates of food and ran to his padawan, and check on her to make sure she was okay. When he was able to determine she was not in immediate danger, Ky ran off to the ship to steal it so he could take Asajj to Coruscant and get her checked out in the medical wing of the Jedi Temple. He quickly made his way to the ship and saw it was barely guarded and decided to quickly take out the guards to acquire the ship. Once he had the ship in his possession, he quickly flew it back to the cave where he quickly got Asajj into the co-pilot seat and loaded up what little they had of their possessions. Once everything was set, Ky took off and immediately set course for Coruscant, hoping that Asajj would be okay.

Coruscant, 47 B.B.Y.

It had taken a few hours, but the ship finally dropped out of hyperspace and Ky immediately piloted the ship towards the Jedi Temple. Ky quickly got in contact with Coruscant Control and warned them that he was in need of immediate clearance to land in the Jedi Temple hangar because his padawan was in need of medical attention. He heard the voice who identified themself as a fellow Jedi Master and once the Jedi Master verified the identity of Ky Narec, the request to land at the Jedi Temple was accepted and the Jedi Healers, as well as the Jedi Council, were alerted to meet them in the hangar.

Ky sighed in relief and began the landing procedure on the landing pad for the Jedi Temple. He immediately grabbed Asajj and picked her up and moved to meet the healers on the landing pad. As soon as they were out on the platform with the rest of the Jedi, a Mirialan woman stepped forward and said, "My name is Jedi Knight Luminara Unduli, I am a healer with the Jedi. Would you permit me to take her to the healing ward? I would also ask that you accompany us to give us any information on your padawan."

Ky nodded and let the healers take Asajj from him, hoping that the healers could help Asajj. He began following the healers, while the council followed closely behind them. Luminara looked at Asajj before looking at Ky and asked, "I need some basic information about your padawan, such as her name, age, species, height, weight, and similar information. Also, can you tell us what caused your concern for needing her to be brought to us?"

Ky nodded and said, "Her name is Asajj Ventress. From what I know about her, she was born among one of the Nightsister clans on Dathomiri. She is seventeen years of age and for her height and weight, I would say she is 1.80 meters tall but I am not sure for her weight as we were living on minimal rations on Rattatak. And as for the concern for her health, she had complained that she was dizzy and she believed it was because she was hungry. I was bringing her food when she passed out and I feared the worst, so I brought her here."

Luminara nodded and quickly took Asajj into the healing ward, asking Ky to wait outside while they ran tests to find out what was wrong with Ventress. Ky reluctantly nodded and walked over to the rest of the council, hearing the Jedi Grandmaster, Yoda, ask, "Meet young Ventress, how did you?"

Ky Narec sighed and said, "I met her after her former master, a criminal and slaver by the name of Hal'sted was killed in an attack by Weequay Pirates. I witnessed Asajj use the force to protect herself from the pirates. Since then, I have been training her as my padawan."

The council nodded and a male Cerean Master asked, "What can you tell us about her training and her connection to the force? As she is a Dathomirian, her connection to the dark side of the force is supposedly stronger."

Ky looked disgusted at such a suggestion and calmly replied, "Master Mundi, Asajj has a strong connection to the force and she uses the force only to help, never once has she used the dark side."

Ky and the council waited for the next couple of hours for any word on Asajj. Soon Luminara approached the group and said, "We ran many thorough tests and we know what is wrong. First off, she is dehydrated. We have her on an IV drip and we also are giving her nutrient supplements to help take care of the dehydration. But that is not all we found. We triple-checked the results we found and all three times they came back the same. Your padawan is pregnant Master Narec."

Upon hearing that, all the Jedi masters were shocked and Ky felt as he might pass out. All of the Jedi had thought running through their heads, wondering how the young Dathomirian padawan ended up pregnant.
