Sorry that this took so long. *sets head on keyboard* I wasn't sure if Jaina and Jacen were acting according for their age and if I was making them a little too immature for their age. I hope that I haven't butchered them too badly but you can tell that they can be a tad bratty.

If they are too immature let me know and I will do my best to cut back on it.

It was a week later that Tenel Ka found herself adjusting to Temple life. The younger members of Akul Clan sometimes had different classes then the older ones. She was lucky she guessed to be with her age mates and those close to her age.

She felt that she was getting along with her teachers. She had only annoyed one of the flight instructors her first class when she refused to get in the cockpit of the simulator. He had picked her up and strapped her in before starting the simulation; she had 'died' two minutes into it. Most of Akul Clan seemed to find it amusing that she had been treated like a child. Thankfully Jaina and Jacen didn't comment on it when they sat down for lunch the next day.

Part of Tenel Ka wished that Jaina shared a dorm with her so that she would have a friend. Once she thought of it she didn't know which dorm Jaina slept in at all.

Well both Jaina and Jacen mentioned that they have siblings. What if their parents are Jedi Knights or Master? Tenel Ka wondered with some trepidation.

Her grandmother had tried to cast doubt in her mind about coming to the Jedi Temple. One of the things that she said was that some of the students were children of the Jedi in the Temple and that she would never fit in because she hadn't been there from the beginning.

What if Jaina and Jacen decided that they didn't want to be her friend?

Tenel Ka believed that she could deal without having friends at the Temple since she didn't really have any friends back home. But her mother had told her that a life without friends would be a lonely existence.

Tenel Ka sensed Jaina and Jacen approaching her table. She looked up from her datapad and watched as they walked towards her.

"May we sit with you?" Jaina asked. Tenel Ka nodded and the two sat down.

They ate in silent for several minutes.

"Tonight we have to go to a political party." Jacen said. Tenel Ka blinked several times. Why hadn't she been informed about this party?

"Don't worry," Jaina said. "Only Jacen, Bail and I are going with our parents. You aren't expected to go."

Tenel Ka sighed in relief. She really rather not go to any parties while she was training as a Jedi. She rather not be treated differently then her peers here at the Temple just because she was a princess.

"So why are you two and your older brother going with your parents, why not your whole family?" Tenel Ka asked. "Anak, Kayla, Renee, Shmi and Galen are too young in Mom's opinion to go. Besides our parents have some enemies that would love to snatch one of us and threaten them with us." Jacen answered.

Tenel Ka wondered who Jaina and Jacen's parents were that their enemies would threaten them with their children.

Jaina shifted impatiently. Her grandfather was wasting precious time telling them about battles that took place years before he or his great grandfather was born

"Jaina, can you tell why the Battle of Druuston was important?" Her grandfather asked.

Jaina jumped and then racked her brains about Druuston and why it would be important. Truth be told there were too many trade routes and so many planets along said trade routes. It was hard to remember them all.

"It was on an important trade route." Jaina answered at last.

"No Jaina, Druuston isn't part of any trade route. If you had been paying attention you would know that Druuston was the place of a battle that even though it had no clear victor marked the turning point in the war. With the Sith now fighting among themselves it was child's play to nearly destroy them." Her grandfather said. "Pay attention next time. There is more to life then flying. If you can't learn from the past you will be doomed to make the same mistakes that they made."

Jaina lowered her head.

"Now, let's see how well you guys can recreate the Battle of Druuston." Her grandfather said.

Jaina lifted her head. Hope rising in her chest that she would be picked to lead one of the fighter squadrons.

"Rayner, Padmé and Tenel Ka you are the side that represents the Republic and the Jedi. Annika, Pter and Ric will be represent the Sith and their allies." Her grandfather announced.

Jaina lowered her head a bit. It hurt that her cousin was chosen to lead a squadron but she wasn't.

"Do you have a problem with my decision Jaina?" her grandfather asked. "No sir!" Jaina yelped.

Rayner swallowed as he climbed into the cockpit of the simulator he had been assigned to. It was hard to believe that one o the Temple Guardians had chosen him to be a squadron leader. He didn't consider himself very good in the simulators but others said that he was better than he gave himself credit for.

He just hoped that he was good enough to survive most of the class this time.

Jacen watched as Padmé and Annika smiled at each other. They had lasted pretty long in the simulator. Almost as long as Jaina.

Personally he couldn't quite understand why his grandfather chose clan mates that weren't the best pilots to lead the squadrons.

Sorry that it's kind of short but at least it's longer than my chapters for Far from Home: those can be pretty short.

If you want to see something cute check out my youtube channel: JediLadyMisty. You want to look at the ones with the kittens. Lily is really cute. Sadly Mom doesn't want to put up the Christmas Tree until Christmas is closer because she's afraid that the kittens will knock it over or climb the branches and knock off the glass ornaments. :(

And I am wasting your time once again.

Please leave a review and let me know what you think since if there's something wrong I can't fix it unless I know what's wrong. :)
