UPDATE! Gah, finally I did it. The way I manage my time is terrible! Oh, and I have an announcement to make! *Cues trumpets and drumroll* I am now… in Middle School! Dun dun dun! And here's another announcement! *Cues in trumpets and drumroll again* I am now accepting requests for new stories! YAY! Anyways, keep these things in mind, and enjoy my peeps!

A week had passed since Ashley had first met Ahsoka in the flesh. During the week she had come to visit Ahsoka in the Healers Wing again as promised. But now that Ahsoka was released, she could no longer sleep at her bed. In other words, she had to be assigned to a clan and given proper Jedi training. There was just one problem; Ashley wasn't completely Force sensitive yet!

By now, the effects of her galaxy's sun was starting to wear off, but it still didn't make much difference right now. "Master Kenobi?" She asked. Ashley was walking with Obiwan toward the training rooms. The Council didn't tell her which clan she would be assigned to from here, but she figured that she'd be fine with anyone. "Yes kid?" He replied. "Um, are you sure training me as a Jedi was a good idea?"

"Yes. Why?"

"Well, first of all, I'm super nervous"

"Go on"

"Secondly, I haven't gained my complete Force sensitivity yet"

"Well you're starting to. Besides, none of the other younglings have unlocked their full potential yet either"

"Thats not what I meant" Ashley explained, "I'm not completely Force sensitive". "Do you have Sith emotions?" Obiwan asked. "Yes!" She screamed. "Name them" Obiwan replied coolly. Ashley sighed, "Fear, anger, hate, confusion. All signs of becoming Sith". "Well OK kid. Just try not to have sudden bursts of emotion and you'll be fine".

The rest of the walk was spent in silence. By now, they had made it to the training rooms to meet up with Ashley's new clan. "OK kid. Lets se what your new clan is..." Obiwan said smiling. It was clear that Obiwan was hiding something. She just didn't know what. The moment Obiwan opened the door, a great surprise awaited...

It was Master Yoda! "Greetings young one" he said, "Come and join us, will you hmm?" It was the Mightly Bear clan! Ashley looked around. To her surprise, she recognized some of the members! There was Ashla, the Togruta girl who first appeared in Star Wars: Attack Of The Clones, Liam was there too... also from Attack Of The Clones, and some other kids she knew.

Come to think of it, all the kids she recognized were from Attack Of The Clones! "Hello" Ashley said nervously walking into the room. "Come now" Master Yoda said, "Ashla's new partner you are. Please, grab a helmet and a stick will you hmm?". Yoda pointed to a helmet rack and a small half open closet with wood swords, sticks, and daggers. Ashley quickly grabbed a helmet, put it on, and got a stick from the closet.

The stick went from her waist to the ground, and was about two centimeters thick. This made it easy to hold in one hand combat. The kids looked well trained. Luckily, Ashley had tried this at home by stealing a big knife from a guard in her village and using it to cut some bamboo and practicing stick fighting with the stick she had cut out.

"Reverse grip, the first lesson of today it is" Master Yoda explained, "The enemies that use this, not many there are. Very useful, this technique is". Yoda paused for a moment, than continued, "Your usual partners, you will be with. Ashla, from now on, work with the new girl, you will". Ashla nodded, and Ashley did the same.

The younglings formed into pairs around the room, as not to crash into each other. "Ready" Yoda said. Ashley got into stance like all the other younglings. Everyone nodded. "Go!" Yoda said. Ashla struck first, from the side. Ashley blocked it quickly. Ashla struck again, this time aiming for her neck, where as Ashley, on the other hand, ducked and tried to hit Ashla's legs.

Ashla was a really good opponent for this kind of thing. The two fought for around 10 minutes before starting to get tired. They were obviously equally matched and it was hard to even say that one would win the battle, even if they tried their best. "A word of advice. Use the Force you may. Make you stronger, it will" Yoda said. "What?!" Ashley struggled to concentrate.

Too late! Ashla did a powerful Force push that slammed Ashley right against the wall! "I'm sorry Master, but I can't use the Force!" She yelled. "Why not? Wrong, Master Kenobi was. Use the Force you can. But know how to, you do not" Yoda replied calmly. "Wait, Master Kenobi was-" Ashley was cut off by the sound of something hitting the wall. It was Ashla! Then she noticed her left hand was held up. Unbelievable. Ashley could use the Force!

"Oops" she said, staring at the Togruta girl. Luckily, Ashla was fine, and she was laughing! All the other kids burst into laughter, along with Ashla. Soon, Ashley was laughing too. It felt as if it was contagous! The younglings continued their training, and Ashley had earned their trust.

At 12:00 standard time on Coruscant, all of the clans went to the mess hall. All of them were chattering with excitement. Ashley didn't exactly know what was going on, but she figured a big event was coming soon. Ashley sat down next to Ashla with a tray of food. "Hi" Ashla said shyly. "Hi" Ashley replied. It was ironic that their names were so similar, and yet, they had ended up becoming partners for the rest of their training.

"I uh, I never got your name" Ashla said shyly. Ashley hesitated. Ugh! Again with the name thing! she thought. Thinking quickly, Ashley managed to come up with a name that didn't have anything to do with her real name whatsoever. "Nyriss" she said, hoping Ashla hadn't read The Old Republic history books. "Nyriss" Ashla repeated. Then she thought for a moment. "You're lying" she said mischievously.

"OK… Nathema" Ashley said trying again. "Stiiiillll lyyyyiiiiinnggg" Ashla said stretching out the words childishly.

"Meetra?"

"No"

"Surik"

"You know I can sense the truth right?"

"Scourge!"

"Scourge is a man's name"

"Argh! Fine! My name's Ash" Ashley said cooly. Ashla thought for a moment, processing her tone and emotions. "Okay, I believe you" Ashla said finally, "You know, its kinda weird that our names our so-" "Similar" Ashley finished off for her, "Of course. Why do you think I would try to hide my real name in the first place?". "I don't know… Randomness?" Ashla replied awkwardly. Ashley sighed, "I'm just gonna shut up now" she said. "Yeah, me too" Ashla agreed.

After their training, the younglings decided to do their own things. After all, they had a lot of free time from then until 8:30 pm. Some decided to go to their cabins early and play on their Data Pads, others decided to hang out with the younglings in other clans, and so on. Since Ashley had nothing better to do, she decided to visit Ahsoka. But the moment she left the area where she and Ashla had been playing with some other kids, a Jedi came up to her.

"Excuse me" the Jedi said. It was Padawan, Barriss Offee! Ashley had never seen Barriss in person, but she didn't necessarily like her anyway. After all, she was supposed to betray Ahsoka in the future. "Yes?" Ashley replied. "Have you seen Ahsoka anywhere? I need to speak with her" Barriss responded in the same, freakishly passive voice she had always used. "No" Ashley said crossing her arms. For a moment there, Ashley had thought about telling Barriss where she was going, but she decided to let the matter slide.

"OK. Thanks anyway" Barriss said. Then, she turned on her heel, and left. Ashley let herself breath a sigh of relief. Phew! That was just way too close! Ashley thought. With that, Ashley continued down the way she was going. She had to admit, it was a beautiful evening. The lights in the Jedi Temple were amazing! Hmm… Kinda like morning, I guess Ashley thought. Being overly peaceful one of the Jedi ways. It made them seem amazing… but also kind of strange in a way.

The Jedi knew many things… but not all. If they did, then a great majority of them would have survived order 66. But they didn't, and that was a weakness that was completely exposed.

After literally swimming through a pool of thoughts, Ashley managed to get her senses back. Luckily, she had already reached Ahsoka's shared quarters with Anakin; and Anakin wasn't home. This meant that the girls could hang out in peace and without Anakin listening. A fortuitous bonus. Ashley knocked on the door. "Enter!" Came Ahsoka's voice. She quickly opened the door to find Ahsoka sitting on her bed. The room was only lit by Ahsoka's bedside lamp. Perfect for the occasion. "So. How was your training?" Ahsoka asked. "Fun" Ashley replied dropping herself on Ahsoka's bed.

Ahsoka lay down next to her, just for the heck of it. "So. How's your shoulder?" Ashley asked. Ahsoka stared at her with an annoyed look on her face for a brief moment. But then, decided to ignore it. "Better" she replied cooly. "You know, I can sense something different about you" Ahsoka continued after a short pause, "Is there something wrong?". Ashley sighed. "You promise you won't tell your Master?" she asked sitting up. "Word as a Jedi" Ahsoka replied.

Ashley closed her eyes, taking in the atmosphere. "I got my Force sensitivity" she said, her eyes slowly opening. Ahsoka's eyes widened. "What?!" she responded in a sharp, but somewhat confused tone. "You were able to get your Force sensitivity? Er- How?". "Okay, Okay" Ashley said excitedly jumping off the bed as Ahsoka was sat up. "So first thing in the morning, my clan had combat class. We fought with sticks" Ashley explained, "Master Yoda reminded us that we were allowed to use the Force. I told him I couldn't".

"Wait, quick interruption. You made it to the Bear Clan?"

"Yes!" Ashley exclaimed, "Anyways, I'm gonna continue". "Go ahead" Ahsoka said, making a hand gesture. "So, when Master Yoda responded, he said that I could use the Force and that Master Kenobi's so called 'diagnostics' were incorrect" Ashley went on, "Instinctively, I put my hand up to protect myself. And when I did, I… Force pushed my partner onto the wall" she finished. Ahsoka just stared. She was way too powerful of a youngling to be kept in a clan for long. She would have to become a Padawan soon if the Jedi wanted her to unlock her full potential.

Ashley looked at the chronometer. "Sorry Ahsoka" she said, "I have to get to my cabin before Master Yoda finds out I'm not there. See you tomorrow!" "Okay. Good night!" Ahsoka replied. And with that, Ahsoka turned off her lights and Ashley ran back to her cabin. Younglings Ahsoka thought to herself smiling. I hope this never ends.
