Time together.

Some time passed and The beacon students were finally done with their weapon upgrades. There was still at least 3 days before they were ready to take on the empire.

Jaina watched as Blake was testing her new weapon. She was skilled fighter, quick and agile, she was using her faunus heritage to her advantage. But most of all she was very beautiful. Jaina had never felt like this for someone she barely knew. There was just something about the young cat faunus that made the sword of the jedi's heart beat faster.

Finally making up her mind, Jaina waited until Blake was done with her training, to approach her.

"Hey Blake!" Jaina said after she reached Blake.

"Oh, hi Jaina! What's up?" Blake asked.

Jaina tried to keep her nervousness in check and asked "I was wondering, if you would like to hang out? I mean we will be going to war soon, so better use the time to relax while we can!".

Blake though for a moment "That's a good point! Sure, why not? Getting to know eachother will make it easier to work together".

Jaina smiled "Great! Where do you want to meet?".

"Well I need to take a shower first, so how about we meet up outside my room?" Blake suggested.

Jaina tried to fight of the mental image of seeing Blake in the shower "Sure, I'll be there in a hour!".

Blake nodded with a smile and walked away. Jaina blushed, at least this was a start.

Up in space, Lana was still training Ruby. Her training has begun to yield results. The young Rose was getting stronger and her power became more easier to bring out. Lana smiled, pleased with the progress. Soon enough Ruby would belong to her forever. She felt confident to move on to one of the biggest tests.

"Ruby!" Lana said, making said girl look at her "It's time for your first big test!"

"Test?" Ruby repeated.

"Yes, it's time to take your first step towards your destiny!" Lana said before holding up something shaped like a pyramid.

"What is that?" Ruby asked.

"A Sith holocron!" Lana began to explain "Sith holocrons are devices used by the Sith that were capable of containing information. Now to open it you must channel your raw emotions in to it!Feel the power within you and the secrets within this holocron will be yours!"

Ruby took it, she took a deep breath and began to focus. She continued to try and focus her emotions in to it. It began to move a little, but then it closed back up again.

"I... I can't do it!" Ruby said, only for Lana to grab her chin and made look her in the eyes.

"Yes you can! Don't you dare quit on me now. Try again and focus!" Lana demanded.

Ruby looked back at the artifact in her hands, before closing her eyes and focuses even harder than before. The holocron began to move again and Lana watched with alot of anticipation in her eyes.

Then it finally happened.

The holocron opened.

"Yes!" Lana said with a big sinister smile on her face.

The holocron closed again and Ruby fell on her knees, breathing hard.

"You did it Ruby! You took another step torwards your destiny!" Lana said as she helped Ruby up.

"I did it! I really did it!" Ruby said, sounding like she could not belive it.

"Indeed you did my love!" Lana said lifting Ruby's face "You deserve a reward for this!".

Before Ruby could ask what it was, Lana kissed her right on the lips. Lana proceeded to life Ruby up and carried her to the bed.

Lana then removed Ruby's clothes before taking of her own. Ruby blushed at the sight. Lana then place herself over the smaller girl and kissed her again while pressing her naked body on hers.

Back with the republic, Jaina walked to meet up with Blake. Blake was outside her room as decided, waiting for her.

"Blake!" Jaina called out making the faunus girl look at her.

"You're here! So were are we going?" Blake asked.

"There is a bar inside the base! We can go and grap some drinks, and don't worry, there is no alcohol in them!" Jaina explained before Blake could say anything.

"Oh, good!" Blake said "Let's go".

They reached the bar, ordered some drinks and talked for a bit.

"You are called the Sword of the Jedi?!" Blake asked.

Jaina smiled "Yeah! It's a title given to me by Luke after I helped stop a potential Sith uprising! But as you can see, it only prolonged the inevitable".

"Still, that's quite the title! I guess there was a ceremony?" Blake asked.

Jaina nodded "There was! And to quote my uncle's words: "I name you the Sword of the Jedi. You are like tempered steel, purposeful and razor-keen. Always you shall be in the front rank, a burning brand to your enemies, a brilliant fire to your friends. Yours is a restless life, and never shall you know peace, though you shall be blessed for the peace that you bring to others. Take comfort in the fact that, though you stand tall and alone, others take shelter in the shadow that you cast!".

"Wow!" Blake said, impressed by the speech, but then she remembered something from it "Wait! Never know peace? Dose that mean you are not allowed to have a life?".

Jaina laughed a little "No, it's not like that! It's just as the sword of the jedi, I must always be on the frontline when ever there is a battle. It's my sworn duty and I carry it with pride!".

"Still, it just don't sound right!" Blake admitted.

Jaina smiled "Don't worry about it Blake. I would not have accepted the title if I didn't think I could live with it!".

Blake said nothing. She admitted that Jaina made a good point, but she still couldn't help but to disagree with how Jedis train their warriors. They talked a little longer until Jaina wanted to show Blake something. She took her to a hill just out side the base that had an amazing view.

"It's beautiful!" Blake said.

"It is isn't it? I come here when I need some time to be alone and think!" Jaina said as she sat down.

Blake sat down next to her and they watched the view together "Jiana! Thank you! I had alot of fun today!".

Jaina blushed a little "Your welcome!".

Blake placed her hand on Jaina's "I mean it, thank you. You are a good person Jaina!".

Jaina blushed more as Blake yawned "Hey Blake! I know this is a bit sudden, but I wanted you to know that I love-" She stopped when she felt a head on her shoulder.

She looked and saw that Blake had fallen asleep on her. Jaina blushed even more, but also felt stupid that she had failed to notice how tired Blake had gotten.

"I guess it can wait a little longer!" Jaina said as she allowed Blake to use her as a pillow.

They sat like that for a while, Jaina wanted to enjoy the feeling a little longer before she brought Blake back to her room.

Who knows? She just might have a chance after all. One can always hope.
