The Book of Time

Chapter Four: The Unknown Jedi

Padme stared into the distance, at the tiny dot speeding vastly fast towards her. She knew who it was but she was afraid. Then it all came too quickly , his face like stone Padme flinched at his piercing blue eyes as he dismounted the speeder. But then she realised he was not staring at her but at a man standing behind her.

Anakin glared at the dark cloaked man standing behind her. You are coming to kill me now? I don't care anymore. Kill me. The man was cloaked but not hooded. His young face, showing creases of wisdom beyond anything Anakin had seen before.

But what interested him most was the back gloved hand half-hidden by the sleeve.

In that instant, Anakin flicked his lightsaber and made a lightening strike at the man expecting to cut him down. But he did not expect him to block him simultaneously with what he guessed little effort. As he tried to tire his opponent he began to realise how good he was, the man was brilliant using blocks and strikes similar to Yoda's style of fighting.

Then after a clumsy strike the man let his lightsaber fall and said to him.

'Darkness and light to befall you, I will not strike you down, Anakin'

Manoeuvring, his lightsaber it flashed up into the air and fell into his belt, it was off.

Turning away, he inclined his head once to the woman near him before walking off, his cloak billowing behind him. Padme and Anakin stared in amazement at each other and turned to where he had gone but he was not there. Only the vast plains of sand reaching to the ends of the world.

Who is he?
