And final chapter! And like I said in the previous chapter, I have started the second part to this series (Which I call the 2000 series. Not sure how long it's gonna end up being though! But I have a tonne of ideas! If I ever get to writing them all). So if you really want the second part just review or send a message because the more reviews I get the more likely I'll update faster (though it's not 100% guaranteed to be honest).

To crayontesla (and I suppose everyone else is curious about this): YES Artoo will be appearing in the sequel to this! (creatively called 2002 ABY. I'm so great at naming my stories). And if memory serves me correctly, he appears early on. =D

Disclaimer: Is this really necessary anymore? You guys already know, right?

Chapter 8: The End you say? Begun the journey has!

Skess and Alessa decided to wait until morning to go back home. Most of Skess' scratches looked better, but her deeper wounds would need a little longer to get better.

They took a bus back to their homes, and Alessa told Skess about the vision she had had the night before.

It hadn't been a bad vision, not of pain or suffering. It was Padme and Anakin, and for the first time, Alessa was right there, right in front of them and not at a distance like in her other visions. They were on a balcony, looking out into the city of Coruscant. She couldn't hear what they were talking about, but that was okay. She took in their appearances.

Alessa had the same exact eyes as Anakin, and he also had a scar on his right eye, she noted, just like hers. He had the same sort of hair as her own father and appeared to be the same height. Alessa realise she had the same colour hair as Padme, exactly the same shade, not the same style though. Alessa came up to about the same height as Padme, but Alessa was just a little taller. Padme was very beautiful and Anakin incredibly handsome.

Alessa couldn't help but notice Padme was pregnant, and she wore a necklace too. It wasn't a particularly nice looking necklace in Alessa's opinion, but maybe Padme thought so? Alessa also realised that Anakin had a metallic hand and she could only wonder how he got that.

She couldn't hear what they were saying. The only word Alessa heard in the vision was 'Angel' and as she looked out into the city, the vision faded and she woke up.

"That just sounds amazing," Skess said once Alessa had told her.

She just shrugged at Skess' remark, "Padme looked incredibly kind…and Anakin looked like…a bad boy."

"A bad boy?" Skess asked, a grin forming on her face, "That sounds dirty!"

Alessa hit her friend in the arm, "As in a rebel!"

Skess laughed, "That's just cute," she said.

"I don't see how that's cute," Alessa said and punched her friend playfully in the arm again.

Skess just laughed.

Skess was the first to get off the bus at her stop, so Alessa was alone for the ride until the next stop, which she got off at.

She walked just a couple of minutes, and then started to jog and before she realised it she was running. And for a moment she felt like she ran so fast that everything blurred around her. The force was once again making her do something she thought wasn't possible.

Then she fell over.

Alessa tripped over her own feet and stumbled onto the hard concrete. She sat up and realised she scraped her knee. Lovely. She stood up and limped the rest of the way home.

Alessa entered the front door and Calon came running to her.

"Alessa!" he said, and was about to hug her, but stopped and stared at her face. "What happened?" he asked.

"I fell over yesterday and scratched my eye on a branch," Alessa said.

"What about your leg?"

"I was running, and fell over again just then," she replied.

Calon shook his head, "I never knew you to be clumsy."

"I'm not clumsy," she said and before Calon could say anything else she limped up to her room and put her bag down. Her father and mother came into the room and her mum hugged her.

"Are you okay?" her mother asked, "How was the trip?"

"I'm fine," Alessa answered, "And so was the trip."

"What happened to your knee?" Her father asked.

"I just fell over while coming back," Alessa said, "I'm going to go put a bacta patch on it."

"Just a moment," her father said, stopping her from leaving the room, "while you were gone," her father said, "We installed an alarm on your window."

"Say what?" Alessa asked, shocked.

"So that you won't sneak out anymore," her mother said.

Alessa opened her mouth to object but her father quickly said, "You brought this upon yourself, so don't get angry at us."

Alessa closed her mouth, and knew they were right. Alessa then just nodded and went down stairs to put a bacta patch on her knee.

Calon came over to her.

"I had another vision," he said.

Alessa just nodded, "what was it about?"

"It was…Padme and Anakin, I think. I couldn't hear what they were saying, but I could see them really clearly."

"Were they on Coruscant?" Alessa asked.

Calon nodded, "Anakin looked kind of like dad, and you had the same eyes as him."

"Did he have a metallic arm?" Alessa asked him.

Calon nodded, "did you have the vision too?"

"I did," Alessa said.

"I know you know how we're seeing all these things," Calon said, "And I know you know a lot more than you let on. I don't know how I know that you know."

Alessa smiled, "I know how you know."

Calon laughed, "maybe we should just have a whole conversation with each sentence with the word know…"

Alessa laughed. Then turned serious, "Unfortunately I can't tell you what I know."

"It's okay," Calon said, standing up, "I don't think I want to know…yet." And with that, he went back to his room. Alessa was surprised by that, usually he would want to. She didn't say anything though, as Luke said he shouldn't know yet and she stood up and went back to her room.

She walked past her father, who stopped and asked, "What is that on your belt?"

"It's a lightsaber," Alessa replied, "an ancient, formal weapon that Jedi used to fight off their enemies. Not as clumsy as a blaster and more skill than simple sight required to use it. An elegant weapon and a symbol of the Jedi."

She had no idea where those words came from.

Her father stared at her silently before saying, "Right," and then walking off.

Well it's not her problem if he didn't believe her, was it?

Alessa came to her room and locked the door. At least her parents hadn't decided to remove the lock or put cameras in her room, which would cause problems.

She took the holocron out of her pocket and activated it using the force. Master Krimson appeared again saying "Welcome, my children. How may I teach you today?"

"I want to learn the basics of being a Jedi, the basics of the force and using a lightsaber. What people first learn when becoming a Jedi," Alessa asked.

The lessons started, and Alessa listened intently, and occasionally decided to write down some notes.

At one point her com rang and she had to ask the holocron to pause, if it could. She answered her comlink and it turned out to be Skess.

"What's up?" she asked her friend.

"Are you coming to school tomorrow?" her friend asked.

"Maybe…I'd like to see if I can stay home and listen to the holocron. There's some pretty interesting information," Alessa replied.

"Okay, that's fine," Skess said, "Dad also asked about the Naboo Queen, and if you wanted to come for lunch there too. We were thinking maybe going in a couple of weeks instead."

"I'll ask my parents, hang on," Alessa said and left her room to find either her mother or father.

She found her mother doing work in the study.

"Mum," Alessa said.

"Yes," her mother said.

"Skess and her father invited me to go to the Naboo Queen in a couple of weeks."

"I don't see why not," her mother replied, "As long as you come home before dark."

"Thanks," Alessa said. Her parents never had a problem with her coming back at dark before, but she knew it had to do with what had happened at the races so there was no point in complaining. At least they were letting her go out.

"I can come," Alessa said to her friend.

"Awesome, so I might not see you tomorrow?"

"Maybe," Alessa said and then looked intently at the holocron, wanting to get back to listening to it.

"You really want to be a Jedi, don't you?" Skess asked.

"The first one in a thousand years," Alessa said.

"Better get back to your training then," her friend said.

"See you," Alessa said.

"Bye."

Alessa disconnected and went back to learning about the ways of the force.

A couple of weeks later...

Alessa, Skess and Skess' father were standing in line at the Naboo Queen to get a table. Alessa had been practising her force abilities and lightsaber abilities and learning about being a Jedi. And she told Skess everything enthusiastically. Her friend listened just as eagerly.

Alessa also told Skess of any visions she had (and she told her brother as well who also told her if he had seen anything, but he doesn't have as many visions as she has). She had also started having visions not just of Anakin/Vader, Obi-Wan, Padme and Luke, but as well as Leia (Luke's twin sister he failed to mention), Han Solo, Chewbacca, Threepio and Artoo and they all started to appear commonly.

She learnt that Han was Corellian in one vision and couldn't help but realise how much he was like Baven. She also felt uncomfortable about his last name, Solo, which kept reminding her of the crime lords, the Solo's, who Brak had mentioned when she first met him. Brak also said the Solo's claimed to be ancestors of the Great Wizards, perhaps it was true? But as soon as Alessa thought that, she dismissed it. Unfortunately, it sometimes came back to mind and she had to keep pushing the thoughts away.

They got a seat outside on one of the balconies. Alessa couldn't help but notice the place was familiar, and so was the view they had.

"I'm going to the bathroom," Skess' father said, "I'll be right back." He got up and left.

"This is familiar," Alessa said to Skess once her father was out of sight.

"Maybe it's nothing," Skess said.

"No…" Alessa said and thought harder. Alessa stood up and walked to the edge and leaned against the railing. Then, after a moment, she turned around to face Skess, her eyes shining.

"Padme and Anakin!" She exclaimed.

"What about them?" Skess asked surprised.

"Remember…I was telling you about that vision I had. Padme and Anakin were just standing on a balcony or something and looking out into Coruscant."

"You're not saying this was the balcony, are you?" Skess asked.

Alessa nodded, "It is, I'm sure. It used to be an apartment. I wonder how it became a restaurant," she mused loudly.

Skess shrugged, "I don't know, dear, but maybe you should sit down."

Alessa went back and sat down, but she couldn't help but look at the view from where she was sitting, it was so similar to the one in her vision.

"Anakin called Padme his angel," Alessa, surprisingly figured out why the word angel had been said in her one vision. Of course it was obvious, in the stories they say that Skywalker falls in love with an angel.

"Sorry?" Skess asked.

"Never mind," Alessa said.

"Okay," Skess said. She looked at Alessa in confusion for a moment, before deciding to completely forget it.

"When did this place turn into a restaurant anyway?" Skess asked "if in your visions it was an apartment?"

"I'd like to know why they named it the Naboo Queen," Alessa said.

They both pondered for a moment before Skess said, "Maybe she was the Queen of Naboo at one point?"

Alessa stared at her friend for a moment before laughing and said, "That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard!"
