Chapter 79 – New Student

They all head towards the Ines's bedroom and of course, the girls started running, which made Luke sighed and called them.

"Girls!"

The twins stopped and looked back at their father, who couched in front of them and made them looked at him.

"What?" they asked.

"You don't run inside the hospital. That is not nice."

"Why?" Alli frown.

"Because a hospital is not a place for running and playing. This is not the Jedi Temple or our home. There are people here who are sick and need to rest, and not having kids running around laughing and screaming. We need to show some respect."

The girls looked at Luke and nod.

"I'm sorry, Papa," Padmé said, with Alli nod right away too.

"Good, now let's check your mother," he said, walking towards his wife bedroom, getting a little surprise when he saw 2 people inside the bedroom, having a conversation: a Twi'lek and a 10 years old boy with green hair but look like human.

"Oh, there he is," Ines said when they entered the room.

"Hello, is everything alright?" Luke asked looking at Ines and then to the Twi'lek.

"Oh yeah. You know General Hera Syndula, right babe?"

Luke gasped and shook Hera' hand.

"Of course. I heard your name many times, but I don't think we have the chance to meet you, unlike my sister."

"Senator Solo, is a good friend," Hera smiled.

"And who is this?" Luke smiled to Jacen.

"This is my son Jacen."

"Nice to meet you Jacen," Luke said smiling at the boy.

"Are you a Jedi like aunt Ahsoka?" Jacen asked right away, making Luke giggle.

"Yes I am."

"I want to be a Jedi too, like my father."

"Your dad was a Jedi?" Ben asked approaching Jacen, who looked at the 6 years old kid.

"Yes. My father was a Padawan in the old Jedi order, and was one of the survivors of the purge."

"What was his name?"

"Kanan Jarrus," Jacen replied, which made Luke and Ines looked at each other.

"Caleb Dume was your father?" Luke asked looking at Hera, who nod.

"What?" Jacen frown.

"Your father real name was actually Caleb Dume, but he change after the purge so, nobody would know who he was and that he was one of the survivors," Hera explained. "But we all call him Kanan, that was the name he chose and that's what we called him."

"My grandpa was a Jedi too and so his my dad and mom," Ben said, "And I will be their student next season. What about you? You are like me and siblings."

Jacen looked at his mother and Hera smiled.

"Well that is why I'm here, to talk about your Academy, cause well, I was transferred to Coruscant after this battle. And well Jacen always wanted to be a Jedi, and knowing that Ahsoka and now Ezra are teachers in you Academy, he keeps talking about how he want to join your school and be a Jedi."

"Well of course. It will a pleasure to have Jacen as our student." Ines said looking at Hera, while running her fingers to her baby, who was sitting on the bed next to her, sucking his pacifier.

"But I have some questions, first."

"Of course," Luke nod.

"I know this is a new Jedi Order, but back in the day Kanan told that they took them from their families and they never saw each other again. I don't to be away from my son. And that is one of the things that concerns me the most." Hera said with a worried look on her face.

"I know that the old Jedi Order was like that. But not this one. After all I'm married and have kids, and can see them every time. It would be very hypocrite from me being with them, and the rest of the families couldn't. So no, that part change."

"You see Hera, family is important. So my husband when created the new Jedi Order he made a few changes. One of them was people are allow to married and the families will always be part of the students lives."

"Really?" Hera asked.

"Yes. Of course the students who lived in different systems, need to stay in the Temple, but they go home during the Life Day and New Year's vacation and during summer vacation. The students who live here, go home after classes ended, like a normal school student." Luke explain.

"They only need is to have lunch in the Temple with the rest of the students. But when classes end at 5pm, they go back home, like all the students who live here in Coruscant." Ines confirmed.

"See mom." Jacen said with a smile.

Hera looked at his son and smile back before she looked back at Luke.

"He is 10 now. Can he entered?"

"Of course. Some of our first students were much older than him. If you want, he can entered next season?" Luke explained.

"Can I, please?" Jacen begged.

"Alright. Seeing that you can be home, I will allow to become a student."

"Yes," Jacen smile.

In that moment Dr. Lina entered with supplies on her hands.

"Good afternoon. It is time to change the bandage." she said.

"Oh we are about to leave. Thank you and hope you can recovered fast. Let's go Jacen." Hera said and saying goodbye, they left, while Dr. Lina approached Ines and waited until the nurse remove the IV from Ines's left hand.

After the nurse leave, she pulled the covers down and pull the hospital gown up, showing the bandage.

"What are you doing?" Alli asked, when Luke sat on the bed cause the twins wanted to see what was going on, while he pick up baby Luke.

"I will change your mama's bandage. Want to see?"

"Yeah," the twins said at the same time.

"Can we help?" Padmé asked.

"Well you can watch and when your mama's get home, maybe you can help your Papa."

"Okay," they nod, and watched careful while the doctor, removed the old bandage and they gasped when they saw the scar. Seeing the kids face, Dr. Lina smiled.

"Don't worry, it looks pretty fine. Now we passed this solution to clean and then we pass this Bacta Gel, and then put clean bandage like this. And that's it." the doctor said.

"Really?" Alli asked. "That' easy!"

"It is," she said and look at Luke. "You do this twice a day. In the morning and late afternoon and in a week the scar will disappear and your mama will no longer have a scar." she smiled at the kids.

"Can mama be at home today?" Padmé asked her.

"Well sweetie, I still want her here for today, but tomorrow afternoon she can go home."

"Okay," the girls said.

Leaving the room, the Skywalkers stayed a little linger together, before Amidala arrived to pick up the kids back home. They knew that tomorrow at that time they would be all together again in their home.

So Jacen will be another student in the Jedi Academy. What do you think of that?
