Chapter 2. Meeting The Librarians.
After she entered the the place that she did not recognized it at all, Starlight flipped forward and she landed with a hard thud, but landed on her feet expertly, the Force of her landing caused the shaking somewhere. It was daylight here somewhere, but it was night time when she was in Kashyyyk. She does not know where she was at this point. Something or someone had brought her here for a good reason. She looked around before she unstrapped her bag pack and she placed it down onto the ground and she pressed the button to fully automatically unfold her Jedi protective gear.
After the metal moved itself as it folded into a small box like onto her hand before she placed it into her pocket to keep it safe when she may need it again. Starlight then picked up her bag pack and she wrapped it around her shoulders securely in place. This planet had acres of trees, a gravel road, a bridge above a stone looking building and some tall lanterns. Starlight carefully walked onto a gravel side walk towards the stone building. She took out her 2 lightsabers, but she did not ignite them just yet in case for anything unwelcome that would come at her. Then, she sensed that she was not on Kashyyyk any more. This was something beyond it to Lola 'Starlight' Marek. This was very new to her indeed.
Meanwhile inside the Library's Annex, Jenkins, Cassandra and Eve were at a table that was near the back door where the Librarians go on their missions and go any where they would want to go and they were doing some research while the rest of the Librarians, Ezekiel, Flynn and Jacob were on a mission to uncover the secrets of an ancient powerful artifact with no trouble at all. Jenkins walked down the stairs with a certain book in his hand."Well, Colonel, I believe that this is the book of ancient Egypt you were looking for on this sort of a certain artifact... Here you are." He said as he walked over to his beloved Cassandra and he wrapped his arms around her waist tenderly and he kissed the top of her head lovingly. Cassandra leaned into his arms feeling content and feel loved by Jenkins himself.
Eve looked at them both and she smiled. She knew that both Cassandra and Jenkins were meant for each other when all of a suddenly, the Annex trembled a bit and some of the things that were on the tables fell to the floor, but thankfully, nothing was broken. All that shaking was coming from something or someone outside and it got everyone's attention clearly when Cassandra flinched and gasped as she turned in the Immortal Knight's arms. Jenkins wrapped his arms protectively around her. "What the hell was that quake shaking feeling outside you, guys?" Eve asked them with wonder.
Cassandra looked around with curiosity and she looked up at Jenkins, who still held her in his arms and then, she looked at Baird. "I don't know, Eve, but we need to know what caused that shaking in here and it sounds like it's coming from outside." She said, feeling a bit scared of what was outside at this moment.
Jenkins pulled back from her before he took her hand in his as he and his Cassandra walked around the table where the monitor was at. "Perhaps we should look to see what caused this trembling in this Annex. Shall we?" He asked as they looked at the screen where this person was outside.
Eve learned how to do the cameras through the monitor computer like from Ezekiel. She pressed some letterings on the keyboard when something on the screen came to life. Jenkins, Cassandra and Eve looked on when they saw someone was outside, wearing odd looking clothes and she was carrying 2 objects in her hands. "Oh, my God." Eve whispered. Both the Immortal and Cassandra looked at her with curiosity. "We need to get out there and see who and what she is. And she is not from around here. We need answers from her when we meet her out there." She added as she walked to get her warm jacket to go out.
Jenkins looked at the screen in puzzlement while Cassandra went over to get their sweatshirts. It was a bit nippy and chilly outside. It looked like that this person outside had no effect of this weather. Jedi were trained to do that, but when it came to extreme cold weather, they have to wear heavy clothing to keep warm. Cassie gave her Galahad his coat and after they put their coats on, they walked out of the Annex for the moment.
Outside, Starlight carefully looked around and she then heard the door opened and 3 people came out towards her. Lola sensed that they are good people. But Baird was always cautious. Eve spoke first. "We need to know who and what you are and what brings you here?" She asked and they wanted to know who Starlight is. Cassie and Jenkins stood behind Baird.
Lola looked at them as she placed her lightsabers on her belt waist. "Madam, it would be best for me to answer all of your questions when we get indoors. You will find your answers there." Starlight said to Eve. Lola sensed that both Jenkins and Cassandra agreed, but Eve reluctantly agreed as they all walked inside the Library. After they walked into the Annex, Starlight gathered Cassandra, Jenkins and Eve around the table when she placed her bag pack down on the table and she unzipped her bag. "I will show you all of where I am from and who I am." Lola told them as she took out her hologram device.
Eve, Jenkins and Cassie all seemed amazed at Starlight's gears and weapons of lightsabers that Lola had brought out to find her hologram device from her bag. Cassandra looked at Lola's lightsabers that she wields. "Are those what I think they are, ma' am?" She asked as she pointed her finger towards the lightsabers. Eve was astonished at this. She needed to know about Starlight's weapons. Baird needed to tell the boys when they get back from their mission and bring the artifact with them.
Starlight looked at them with a smile. "Yes, madam, they are what I call lightsabers." Jenkins had never heard of it before, but he was interested into them and he had never used 1 in his whole Immortal life. Cassandra looked at her in amazement. "Feel free to ask your questions." Lola looked at the 3 of them. She sensed their curiosity within their minds.
They were shocked at her words. 'How does she know that we were going ask her?' Jenkins and Cassandra thought with wide eyes. Eve stared at Starlight in the eyes. Baird, Galahad and Cassie noticed her eye color that they were absolutely golden brown. "If you don't mind me asking you." Starlight nodded, letting them ask. "What are you and where are you from originally?" Baird asked the Jedi.
Lola calmly sighed as she stared at Jenkins, Cassie and Eve. "I am known as Starlight. I am unknown to others. I will show you all in my hologram when everyone arrives here momentarily. I am what every being calls us the Guardians of the Peace and your questions will be answered there." At Starlight's words, Jenkins, Cassie and Eve looked at her in confusion and they were about to reply when the back door opened up. Lola stood and waited patiently for something or someone. She sensed that they are coming back with that artifact.
Cassandra, Galahad and Baird turned around and just then Flynn, Ezekiel and Jacob stumbled into the Annex, carrying the powerful ancient artifact in with them. Lola sensed the power within the artifact that brought her here into another world. Flynn held the artifact in his hands. She looked at Jenkins. "The book of ancient artifacts that you have on the table over there." Galahad stared at her like, 'how do you know about this?' look on his face. "Can you please bring it over here. There is something about that powerful artifact in that book." She said as Jenkins went to get the book.
Galahad brought the book over to the Jedi and he placed it in front of her. Cassie and Jenkins stood on either side of Lola as they read the paragraphs. "Who the hell are you? What are you doing here?" Flynn was the first to speak. Ezekiel and Jacob walked over to where Eve, Jenkins and Cassandra were at with the book with them. The back door immediately closed right after they walked back into the Annex.
"Sir, I introduce myself as Starlight. Your questions will be answered through my hologram." Carson looked at Lola with puzzlement when everyone was gathered at the table. Flynn stared at her like, 'what?' before everyone gathered at the table.
Jenkins, Lola and Cassandra read a paragraph from the book. "Mr. Carson, can you place the artifact on the table please. This is very important." Starlight said. Flynn asked why. Everyone's focus was on the Jedi. "This artifact that is on this table here is the reason that I am here." She told them. She sensed the artifact was the key that brought her here to the Annex.
Cassandra and Jenkins gazed at her in confusion. "Madam Starlight and everyone here. This book tells about the artifact that it is very powerful and it also said that it can also bring a warrior here." Galahad told them. Carson was flabbergasted as he looked at the artifact that the boys found in Egypt. Everyone in the Annex was shocked. Jenkins and everyone got their eyes on the Jedi. "Are you that warrior, madam Starlight?" He asked.
Lola looked at the Immortal and the librarians with a small smile. "I am that warrior and I will show you all. This is part of the answer of telling you all my name." She told them before she raised her hand to use the Force to dim the lights. They all looked at her like, 'What are you? What kind of warrior are you?' They thought. Starlight then turned on her hologram to show them her answers. There were the planets from another galaxy, the lightsabers that she had with her, the Imperial troops were closing in on the surviving Jedi, including her. It also showed that after Galen and Lola were born, they were separated at birth and that brought a bit of tears to Cassandra's eyes and Galahad held her in his arms. Lola looked at them and she sensed that both Cassie and Jenkins are in love with each other. She smiled at that. She would be happy for them. She was human being, but a powerful 1 at that.
After Starlight showed them the rest of the archives that she had gotten what she could from the Jedi Temple in Coruscant, she turned off her hologram and everyone in the Annex looked at the Jedi in shock and amazement. For 1 thing that the Immortal and the librarians were very glad that they have a Jedi among them. They introduced themselves to the Jedi. She told them her real name was Lola Marek and she told them that she had a twin brother. The librarians went home for the night after their missions to retrieve the artifact and it's powers. Lola followed Galahad and Cassie to the Jedi's new quarters to stay. Starlight knew that she could not go back because of the Sith and the Empire. Lola walked into her new room, so she could meditate
Cassandra and Jenkins walked into their bedroom to get ready for bed for the night. Cassie dressed in her night gown and she climbed in under the covers and she waited for her love. Galahad walked out of the bathroom to freshen up before bed, walking towards their bed where Cassandra was at. As soon as Galahad climbed into bed with her, Cassandra moved closer to him and she rested her head on his chest. Jenkins lifted his hand to stroke her hair and his other hand to caress her cheek. "We all had a very busy day with a Jedi Knight staying with us. It's a good thing that we have a Jedi with us.. Didn't we, Galahad?" Cassie asked quietly to him.
Jenkins turned his head towards and he kissed her forehead lovingly. "Indeed we did, my love." He said as he heard her say 'I love you, Galahad' to him before she fell asleep while listening to her heart beat lulled her to sleep. "I love you too, my heart." Jenkins whispered when he smiled tenderly down at her when he felt her deep breathing while she slept. Galahad closed his eyes as he held her into his arms when they sleep in dreams of their future together.
