I have started a new job and I had a family member pass so things have been crazy so I am sorry for the late chapter but believe me they will keep coming. NOW ON WITH THE SHOW.

Jedi Temple

After dropping off the delegation at the senate building Naruto headed over to the jedi temple to meet with the grand council. He sighed when the grand entrance came into view, this was going to be a nightmare. Word had already begun to spread from Mandalore of what he had done and no doubt the council had summoned him for answers. He finally stepped into the temple and began his mission to the council chambers. He was surprised when jedi that wondered the halls stopped and watched him walk. As he looked at their stern gazes, he found something he had never seen before. Recognition.

The jedi present all had various reactions to his presence. Some gave him curt nods of recognition; some even gave him a small smile as he walked the halls. Of course, there were those who still looked at him with caution but that was better than looks of distain and mistrust. He made it into the elevator that run up to the council chambers and he began to feel nervous. What where they going to say to him, he had not only killed someone, but he was fully clad in battle armour that was not befitting the order. No doubt there was going to be punishment for what he had done. He was broken from his thoughts when he finally heard the hiss of the door before him open up.

Taking a deep breath, he stepped into the council chambers and walked to the centre of the room. All the council where there and he could feel their stern gaze watch him as he walked to the centre of the room. He bowed and looked to Yoda in the centre. "You summoned me masters." Yoda smiled and pointed at him with his cane. "Indeed Naruto, much to answer for. You do." Windu leaned forward and placed his elbows on his thigs and frowned. "The peace talks went well, and duchess Satine spoke of you highly when it came to keeping the peace between both parties. However, we are here to discuss what happened when it came to the assassin."

Naruto sighed and tugged a bit of his robe to try and cover more of his armour. Mace then pushed a button on his chair and a hologram appeared in the centre of the room. Naruto watched as security footage from the palace played in front of him. He grimaced when he watched as he was getting electrocuted, he could still remember the pain of the lighting coursing through his body. The masters' eyes grew wide when they saw Naruto form a lighting ball in his palm and launch it at the sith. When it came to an end he looked away, not wanting to think back on when he had killed the sith.

The lights turned back on, and the hologram shut off. Windu looked back to Naruto and sighed. "To think the sith have once again revealed themselves. It was a good thing you where their Naruto, or we would be at war right now with the separatists. You have done the republic and the jedi order a great service." Ki adi mundi cleared his throat and caught the attention of everyone in the room. "Be that as it may, he gave into his emotions and used force lighting. A technique that is not allowed in the jedi order. He should have captured this sith so he could be questioned. Instead, he gave into his anger and killed him. Now we have no clue where he came from."

Plo Koon finally decided to step into the brewing argument that was about to happen. "Be that as it may Master Mundi, we cannot fault Naruto for wanting to end the threat that was before him. We cannot allow the sith to roam the galaxy freely. When it comes to his lighting technique, there are no rules when it comes to lightning. Of course, it is well known as a sith ability, jedi too can learn this ability."

Yoda nodded before looking back to Naruto. "What's done is done, move on we should. Only in time, we will learn where the sith come from." Naruto sighed before pulling out the red holocron from his robe. He used the force to hold it out in front of the masters. All the masters' eyes widened in shock when they saw the holocron before them. Some even leaned back in slight fear at the item. "When I killed the sith, I search his body for any clues to who his master was. The only thing I was only able to find was this holocron."

"Naruto, please tell me you did not look into the secrets of the holocron." Naruto shook his head and looked to Windu. "No, I did not, I don't even know how to open it. I took it thinking it would hold some clues as to who the master is of the sith who I killed." Yoda used the force to take the holocron off Naruto and he frowned when it was in his clawed hand. "Dark is the knowledge, these things hold. Ancient they are, powerful in the right hands. Very good it is, that you brought this to us."

Naruto smiled and bowed to the master before him. "It was no problem master Yoda. I take it that holocron will be locked in the grand archive." Yoda smiled and nodded, Naruto pulled out the siths sabre and presented to the council. "What are we to do about this Master Yoda." Windu didn't let Yoda answer and chose to answer himself. "That lightsabre will also have to be locked in the grand archive with the holocron." He held out his hand to take it from Naruto, but Naruto did not hand it over. "Actually, master Windu, I was hoping I could keep the crystal inside."

Windu frowned and shook his head. "It's forbidden for Jedi to take trophies young one. We cannot allow that to happen." Naruto scowled and gave a dry chuckle. "I don't plan to mount it on my wall master, I intend to bleed it" Yoda tapped Windu's chair and chuckled. "Let him explain we must." Yoda gestured for Naruto to continue and smiled. "I was reading up on the Sith and how they acquire their sabres. I have studied that one can heal a red kyber crystal by sifting through the emotions locked into the crystal. I'm sure you all can feel the hate and anger locked in this crystal. It cries out to be healed and I would like to give it a try."

Yoda looked over to Plo Koon and pointed at Naruto. "Believe your student can do this, Master Plo." Plo tapped his fingers on his mask and nodded his head. "Naruto has proven he can do anything once he sets his mind to it. I believe we should give him a chance. With my supervision of course." Yoda smiled and leaned back in his chair. "Very well, keep the crystal you can. Hope you succeed I do, rest now you should. Summon you again soon, we will." Naruto let out a sigh of relief before bowing. He quickly turned and headed for the exit of the council chambers. Mace turned to his fellow council members once Naruto left and sighed.

"It seems he has come to terms with his Mandalorian culture, tho it does concern me. The Mandalorian creed is the polar opposite to that of the Jedi code." Shaak ti smiled and shook her head. "While that is true, I am sure you all felt the force around Naruto. It has calmed now and it seems he is more at ease. I believe this journey was indeed needed for him." Saesee Tiin frowned and looked to his feet. "You are right Master Shaak, however this could be his downfall. We of the jedi are meant to leave behind our world and culture for the jedi order."

Mace leaned on his knees once again and gave a rare smile. "There are actually no laws when it comes to one's culture. Many in the order keep their traditions and customs of their home worlds. It should be no different for Naruto."

Yoda nodded and looked to his fellow masters in the room. "Observe Naruto more closely we should, closer he has become to his Mandalorian culture he has. Preparations we should make" Mace simply nodded and pushed on his com link. "You can send them in now, make sure we are not disturbed."

"What we are about to do could very well be the downfall of the jedi, I hope our suspicions prove to be false and this will be forgotten about. Are you sure you want to do this master Yoda" Yoda grunted and looked to the floor. "For the sake of the order, I must do this. To do this I wish not but do it I must."

Back with Naruto, he began to walk towards the living quarters of the jedi temple. Now that the whole business with the council was over, he could finally set out on his personal quest. He finally reached his destination and knocked on the white door that was Infront of him. He only waited a moment before he heard someone say "come in. "

The door slid open, and he found Obi Wan sitting on a mat near his bed. Obi wan looked up at him with a splash of confusion before fully standing up. "Naruto, it's good to see you again. Might I say congratulations are in order for your defeat over the sith." Naruto grinned at him and rubbed the back of his head. "Thanks Obi Wan, I aint gonna lie I was scared out of my mind."

Obi Wan put a hand on his shoulder and smiled down at him. "Be that as it may you still performed admirably, I am sure Master Plo is very proud of you" Naruto blushed slightly at the praise and looked out of the door. "Yea I sure hope he is, may we talk in private Obi Wan." Obi Wan stepped aside and gestured for him to fully step into him room. He closed the door behind him and watched as Naruto Stood by his window.

"Might I ask what this is all about Naruto, I am sure you would rather be resting after your travels than small talk with me." Naruto sighed and pulled a letter out of the inside of his robes and held it in front of Obi Wan. "During my time on Mandalore I got familiar with Duchess Satine. She spoke very highly of you; she asked me to deliver this letter to you in private". Obi Wans eyes grew wide for a second before taking the note out of his hand. He awkwardly looked at Naruto then back to the letter. "I don't know why Duchess Satine would write me a letter. Of course, I worked with her in the past, but we are not that … familiar."

Naruto grinned and shook his head "Really because by the sounds of things she is very familiar with you. The way she talks about you it sounds like you harbour the same feelings for her as she does you." Obi Wan shot Naruto a fierce glare "I have no idea what your implying Naruto." Naruto sighed and looked out of the window "Look Obi Wan, I don't care what relationship you have with Satine, I too hate how the order stops us from expressing emotions. I understand what you are going through."

Obi Wan looked at Naruto with Confusion. "How could you possibly know what this is like." Naruto looked to the floor and gave a weak smile. "Because I too have been charmed by a Mandalorian princess, she is a galaxy away and I cannot express my feelings openly." Obi Wan looked at Naruto in utter shock. "You mean Satines sister Bo Katan." Naruto nodded and got off the wall he was leaning on. "Yea, man what a lady she is, look you have my word that no one will hear of this. I always keep to my word" Obi Wan watched as Naruto made his way to the door, just as he was about to open it, he spoke one final time. "Naruto, thank you and I can assure you I won't tell anyone of your time with Bo." Naruto just flashed him a smile before exiting his room.

With Naruto finally gone, Obi Wan looked to the letter in his hand and opened it up. He sat on the edge of his bed and began to read its content. My dearest Obi Wan. Forgive me for I have not had much time to contact you. It seems you're not the only one trying to keep peace in this galaxy of ours. I have given this letter to Naruto in hopes you will read it and remember that I am always thinking of you. Many nights I stare up at the stary sky and wonder what you are doing, where you are and if you're safe. I often think back to our time together, that night I slept in your warm embrace. It warms me on cold nights and is a memory I will cherish forever. Naruto tells me one day he will be the grand master of the order, his first change will be that jedi will be able to form connections and loved ones. I hope he does so soon. I will wait for the day I am able to hold you once again my dearest Obi Wan. Forever yours Satine.

A lone tear fell out of his eye and landed next to Satines Name. He rubbed his eyes dry and smiled. "Satine, I too hope that one day Naruto will change this order. I think of you every night and it hurts knowing I will never get to hold you again."

NARUTO

Naruto sighed thinking about his talk with Obi won, it was a shame a nice guy like him couldn't live his life with a woman like Satine. He made his way down the dorm rooms to find his bed but stopped when he found someone waiting outside his door. "Aayla, what brings you to my dorm at this hour?" She looked away from the hallway window to him and smiled. She pushed of his door and walked over to him "Naruto, its so good to see you. I heard what happened on Mandalore. I was worried" Naruto grinned and placed both of his hands on his hips. "What's this now, Aayla Secura worried about little old me." She frowned at him and stepped closer. "I am serious Naruto; I was worried about you. You fought a sith alone and nearly died." Naruto huffed and shook his head, "Look Aayla I am fine, to be honest I don't really wonna think about it. I haven't stopped since I left Mandalore, I just want some rest."

Aayla grinned and placed a hand on her hip. "Well, that's a shame, because I thought I could buy you a drink to celebrate your victory and success on your mission." Naruto perked up at the mention of him and Aayla going for a drink. "Really, you wonna grab a drink. It's pretty late and am sure us padawans are meant to stick to the curfew." She turned and started to walk down the hall, she stopped and looked over her shoulder at him. "what's the matter Naruto, don't tell me your gonna start following the rules now." She began to walk again, throwing an extra sway in her hips as she did. "H-hey Aayla wait up am coming."

The Electric Dance

Tonight was booming, the music was up to the max and the best dancers where out on display. Naruto and Aayla were sat in one of the booths in the corner, both nursing their drinks and laughing. "Wait, wait master plo really had to crawl inside of a gundark." Naruto laughed and took a swig of his drink. "Look when it gets that cold you will do anything, his robes stunk of gundark for months." They both laughed again before being interrupted by someone approaching the table. Naruto looked up to see Mili place two drinks on the table for them. "Here you go Naruto, from those bounty hunters over on table 12" Naruto looked past her to the table and watched as two bounty hunters raised their glasses to him.

Aayla grinned and looked to Mili. "Seems Naruto is pretty popular round here" Mili looked at Naruto and smiled. "Well, it's safe to say Naruto is well liked by those who come here. It helps when he can help them earn a few credits." She placed her hand on his shoulder before walking away, flashing Aayla a look. Naruto grabbed his drink and smiled weakly at her. "Sorry about that, Mili is just a friend of mine." She looked into her drink and frowned. "You don't have to explain anything to me Naruto, its fine." She looked back up at him and looked him in the eye. "Naruto, are you sure your ok. After everything that you have been through, I am worr-

"Aayla I am fine, don't worry ok. What's done is done, besides I thought we were here to celebrate. Not sulk in the corner." She watched him stand and walk over to her, he held his hand out and smiled down at her. "Come on, I am in the mood to dance. Besides I wonna show everyone who I am here with." She huffed before smiling and taking his hand. He dragged her to the centre of the dancefloor, and they began to do an awkward little jig. They where smack bang in the middle of the dance floor and they could both feel other people bouncing up against them.

Somone shoved Aayla a little too hard and she fell into the embrace of Naruto. He looked down at her and she blushed slightly, she placed her hand on his cheek and smiled. "Naruto, no one can know of this." He looked at her in confusion before his eyes went wide when he felt her lips on his. He couldn't believe it, him, and Aayla in the middle of a dancefloor. Kissing. He closed his eyes and leaned into her more, now fully aware her deepened the kiss. He felt her pull away and he looked at her once again in confusion. "Let's go somewhere more private." She grabbed his hand and started to pull him through the crowed on the dancefloor. All the way through he grinned like a mad man.

Jedi Temple

Mace looked at Yoda with concern and sighed. "Do we have confirmation" Yoda grunted and nodded. "Yes, in place, is our agent. Begun it has, this mission of ours." Mace stood and looked out of the rooms window, watching the air traffic fly by. "I hope this mission will proves useless master. We are taking a big risk in doing what we are about to do. If he finds out, it could be disastrous." Yoda hobbled over to the rooms door and stopped before leaving. "Make this decision lightly, I did not. For the sake of the order, this is. Grand master I am, hard choices I must make." Windu closed his eyes and nodded; visions flashed before him. He could feel so much anger, blue eyes turned red, red sabres danced across his vision. Blaster fire and screams could be heard, and a feral growl flooded his ears.

"I am still against this master; you are the grand master and I respect your decision. But I cannot support it, I will help you keep this from Plo Koon. But that is all." Yoda nodded before finally leaving the room. Mace rubbed his bald head in frustration and looked back at the window, looking at his own reflection in the glass. "A boy with blue eyes will bring balance to the force, or he will plunge it into darkness."

Hey guys, sorry if this chapter seems a little less action packed. However, it is important to the story. It's a bit smaller them some chapters but this is just a warmup while I am getting back into writing. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it and let me know your thoughts.
