Corbenic

[Roku]

Approaching the science wing, Sable made a B line for the infirmary. In the past few months she's matured well past her years. Seeing her brother turn, knowing she would probably never see him again. Savard had come home with a small sword scar on his face, and the toils of war were upsetting her. She didn't agree with what the jedi were doing. So she approached perhaps the one man who would understand her viewpoint.

[Crazy O]

Elisa walked through the Corbenic feeling like she as finally home. She had spent so much time back at the Jedi Temple on Corescant that she had come to miss this home. She was ordered her by Master Rhea to take a padawan. He said she was a difficult head strong but extremely talented.

Elisa headed towards the medical ward where Sable had been spending so much of her time. Elisa walked into the doorway of the medical ward and looked on Sable. Elisa believed that it was these times that spoke volumes about a Jedis true character. "Can you forgive him?" She said softly.

[Roku]

Sable couldn't find the man she was looking for. The child's head tilted and glanced up at the lady before her. She raised an eye brow at the comment from this woman she hadn't yet met before. "Forgive who?" She asked calmly. She turned fully around now, staring up into the eyes of the jedi knight. There were a number of people she could be referring to, but Sable wasn't one to hold grudges.

[Crazy O]

Elisa looked at the girl and spoke softly. "Those that your mind wonders back to." She said. She knew the emotion that Sable was feeling. She knew what it was like to wonder if she was going to see someone that had gone a separate path. She wondered what the young woman's response would be. She was reading her emotions with her with her species natural empathic abilities. She wanted to judge her new padawan's emotional response. It was an excellent way to evaluate her without the restriction of master padawan relationship.

Shifting her eyes to a different focal point every few seconds, Lenne took quick, staccato steps through the hallway. Sometimes walking was difficult for her, for no reason other than the fact that it was done so monotonously. Right, left, right, left, right, left, and try not to trip. This was her life, and no amount of social privileges or lack thereof would change the fact that things were inherently the same; life is inherently meaningless. Although she had eventually made her way to the med bay several times already, each distinct visit felt like a new obstacle on an unfamiliar route.

Her eyes were exhausted and her lips breathed out hot air as she mumbled something comforting to herself. The comfort came in sounds, in the feeling of her lungs compressing, rather than what words were actually spoken. In her habitual release of sound from mouth, she was preoccupied, and met her body accidentally with that of a little girl's. She looked down as if suddenly coming out of a daze and fixed her eyes plainly on the little girl in front of her.

"Hellooo," she chirped with sudden, though not genuine, cheer and alertness. "Sorry for bumping into you! I just feel a bit lost, is all. I guess. Ooh, you're so small!" She paused, jerked her head back slightly and then side to side. "Oh, am I interrupting something?"

[Roku]

"This is my brother and dad we're talking about... It's not as trivial as you make it sound..." She told her with a frown. Sable was nearly run over by an older girl, and she fell down on to her butt. "Ouch..." She muttered to herself in impact, and she looked up and saw nothing but stars.

[Crazy O]

Elisa looked at the young woman. "It is that trivial because one must be able to forgive them in order to let go of the negative emotion which these people can produce." She said before she crashed into a girl. "Always pay attention to your surroundings. This will be critical when you accompany me on missions padawan." She said walking over to her hand extended her hand to give the young girl a hand up.

Elisa thought about the girl said. Elisa remember what it was like being Sable's age, but she did not know about the Force so it was much more of a normal childhood. Or it would have been if the memories were real not just an implanted before she was pulled from the tank. She hoped that the pressure of the Jedi Order did not crush this young girl.

[Anova]

Lenne stood in the same place with a dumbfounded expression on her face. When she knocked the little girl over, she took a step forward to help her up but backed off as the older woman helped the girl off her feet. She shuffled her feet a bit, then took another step forward as to walk away and not to interrupt further. She then figured that was rude, and put her foot back to its original position. She looked at the little girl.

She opened her mouth once to speak, but then closed it again. She felt bad because she was so much larger than the little girl, and wanted to say the right thing to her and the older woman. She had never seen these people before, and wanted them to accept her and like her.

The tone of her voice went from generic to genuine. "Hey, I'm really sorry for knocking you over.." she said to the little girl, getting down on one knee to be closer to her. She turned her head to face the woman. "I meant no harm," she continued. "I feel really bad."

[Roku]

"I'm just worried, you know? I could be like all the other Jedi, reserved, apathetic. Not know or even care about my family. But I'm not a proper Jedi. I only live here because my parents are dead and I was brought here. I hope that doesn't bother you when training me, Master..." She said, as she used Elisa's assistance to help pull herself up. She turned to the other girl. Her equilibrium was still a bit off, but she offered her a smile.

"Such a thing happens." Sable told her. "I won't fault you for it." She told her. "I'm Sable Wingston." She told her.

[Anova]

Lenne listened to the girl as she spoke. She lost her parents, too, she thought. She shifted and stood her body up, looking forward with slightly glazed eyes. In many ways she felt that she was similar to this little girl, for she too lacked the reserve that characterized a proper Jedi. She looked at the little girl now, eyeing her as if to capture her soul in a jar. She was astonished at how mature the girl was for her age, and remembered that she herself had lacked that maturity until very recently. Finally she managed a smile.

"Hi," she started, "I'm.. well, my name's very long, so please call me Lenne." She pushed a small amount of air quickly from her mouth, like a forced chuckle. "I've never seen you around here or anything." She turned to the older woman, "Hello, I believe I'm unfamiliar with you as well." Her voice trailed off.

[Crazy O]

Elisa looked at her young padawan and shook her head slightly. This was a headstrong one for sure, but at her age it was to be expected. "I did not ask you to be reserved and apathetic or for you not to care for others young one. I myself believe in the importance of others in ones life. It can give one strength." Elisa said to her. She did not want to go into a lecture about this topic, but she wanted to make it clear were she stood. "In my exerance however one must be in control of their emotions so that they do not drive. You can care for someone deeply as long as that does not drive you to do something unreasonable in their cause. One can be mad at someone as long as they allow those emotions to subside rather then linger and fester. You may worry about them but you have to put that worry behind you when you need to focus." She said trying to drive home the idea that she was not asking her to be an emotionless automaton, but that she would need to rise above her emotions so they did not control her.

Elisa then turned to the eighteen year old. "My name is Elisa Sedna, Jedi Knight and sister to Princess Kitana of Zeltros. I am also Miss Wingston new Master." She said. It was partly a lie, she was in fact Kitana's clone, not her sister. However only a few people in the galaxy knew this fact, among them was Zilfer of Shadows, Jor, Jennie, Drake, the Jedi Council and Kitana herself. "And do not worry about knowing me. I have not been back her sense the Jedi Library was moved back to the newly constructed Jedi Temple on Coruscant." She said hinting that she was something of a bookworm. Elisa was in fact the primary librarian of the Jedi Order up until a two years ago when the Jedi Council assigned the task to a master of the Order. They felt that Elisa was just not ready for some of the information contained in the library.

[Roku]

"It's nice to meet you Lenne. You look so nervous...we're all friends here. I've lived here my whole life." She told her, and then turned to Elisa.

Sable paused for a second, taking everything in. Care, but don't let someone else's actions control your own. You are your own person, not a slave of emotion. What the master was saying sounded very reasonable to Sable. And she nodded. "I think I understand. This advice would have been nice to give to my brother before he went off... You should know that I'm not happy about all the violence. You don't need to worry about me doing anything too terribly dangerous..." She told her. "So why have you come here?" She finally asked, the flat obvious question.

[Crazy O]

Elisa looked at the young girl. "I thought you understood by my comment to Miss Lenne. I was assigned by the Jedi Council to train you in the way of the Force so that one day you may join the ranks of Jedi Knights." She said with the greatest hope for this young woman to one day become a great Jedi, after all the younglings of her generation were the future of the Order after the old timers like Jor and herself became one with the Force.

Elisa took a step towards the door. Please accompany me back to my shuttle. I think it is time for your formal training to begin." Elisa said leading Sable back to the landing pad and her T-70A Specter-class Yacht. Elisa had all the equipment she required back on her shuttle for training a padawan and she felt the best way to teach was in the field. So Elisa was going to take her on a dig to Ossus.

[Anova]

Lenne was surprised at how kind these people were to her, especially after having knocked over the little girl. She was embarrassed that her nervousness showed on her face. "Thank you, Sable," she said pleasantly. Then looking at Elisa, she said, "It's nice to meet you too.. Princess Elisa." She wasn't sure what exactly to call the woman, hence the hesitation. She gave a welcoming smile and began to position herself to walk away.

[Sir Lord Ash]

Suzuka finished her meal and eventually left the defac. She was on her way back to the library when she had a feeling that she forgotten something. After checking her pockets, she realized she was missing her comm-link. She went back to the defac, only, after some searching and asking, found out it wasn't there.

After leaving, she rushed to her room, where, sitting on her desk, was her comm-link. It's red light was flashing, indicating that she had a message. She smiled hearing the voice on it, and began to ready herself for a trip. She removed her robes, throwing on a simple, sleeveless white blouse with a gold armor breast piece over it, tight, dark blue shorts, a short battle skirt, and some simple arm bands, mainly for looks. She finished checking her looks, packed her pack, and was gone, locking her room behind her.

The next place Suzuka needed to go was the science/medical wing of Corbenic. She stepped off at an easy walking pace, but had to stop, and there was a nice conversation between a couple of people going on here. It took her a minute before she realized that she, at least partly, knew two of the three people here. Before she could talk, Master Elisa and Sable left, leaving the third woman here, who looked to be about as old as she was.

Hi there. I don't think I've seen you around. You new here?
