The meeting

Hello everyone,

This is the start of my journal as a padawan learner. I started writing and i couldnt stop myself from doing it, so the story came up larger than i first thought. I took the resolution of spliting it up into two parts (cause i know nobody reads a large story hehe sly wink

).

Anyways i hope you like it.

Cheers.

Suddenly without even realizing it, he was standing in the door of the mining outpost in Dantooine.

- How the hell did i get here??

The curious thing was that he remembered everything he had done. He could close his eyes and picture every second it passsed through the last 4 hours of travel it took him to get from Mos Eisley in Tatooine to the place already mentioned.

His face was a mix of intrigue and self dissapointment since he would have liked to know what was exactly happening.

He started to look around as if looking specifically for something ....... or someone. He didnt understand who or what he was looking for but it was like if he could not control any of his movements. It was like one of those holo-stories that he used to watch when he was a child, in which you see the things happening but just cant do anything at all to prevent them from doing so.

Without much time to think he suddenly realized that his eyes were fixed on someone. It was a beautiful woman, dressed in blue with simple clothes nothing really out of the ordinary, but there was something that cought his attention and he wanted to know what was it. Her hair was long and soft to the touch, or so he thought, and her eyes were amazingly fixed on him for some reason. She had a smile on her face as big as the hug a happie wookie might give to a long time friend. Big smile.... but still something mysterious about it. It was not a normal smile since it was hiding something, intentions, a secret, who knows ..... maybe no one will ever know.

The thought of a long kept secret flowed through his mind like a lightning bolt and it striked him with fear. He had secrets, well kept secrets, long time kept in the lost places of his mind so they could not come back and hunt him, and now this woman seemed to be able to even read his mind. She was staring at him as well as he was staring at her, performing a dance like the shadow of the fire burning on a fireplace. Yes, they had their secrets but right the first minute he saw that woman he knew he was in danger. In danger of being discovered, in danger of being forced to live once more the terrors of his past, in danger of becoming once more what he despised the most, in danger of letting go of all the fear and anger he had inside and had been keeping for so long in his heart.

But why was he feeling all this now?? what did this woman have that made him feel this way. It was some kind of unseen power, some kind of magnetism that made the feelings inside him change and move wildly towards chaos. He did not know what it was, but he was sure as hell that he did not like it.

Time stoped for a couple of seconds and during that time the only thing that managed to move was the woman coming towards him. He could not move, he could not speak nor even think straight and without knowing when it happened he saw himself bow respectfully to this woman who he had never seen before....... or maybe he had??

Sudden memories of dreams came to his mind. Dreams he had when he was only a child and was discovering the frightening truth that he was "different" from the other kids. Dreams that showed him a field full of grass, with a peaceful melody in the background as if to settle him down when he was afraid. She wwas there, he could remember it now, she was in the dreams he had. She was guiding him trhough the field, she held him by the hand and urged him to walk forward and follow her to places he could never see in his dream. Then the dream used to stop and he woke up, not scared, not uneasy but calmed and cheerful.

And there she was, the woman of his dreams bowing now to him respectfully.

- Greetings milady - he greeted her

- Greetings - was the only answer she gave him.

A couple of uneasy seconds passed untl he couold think of something to say and when he said it it sounded so stupid he could not belive it.

- Im sorry to bother you but for some reason i dont know how i got here, but i knew i had to speak to you. Do i know you from somewhere??

- No, im afraid we do not know each other but i was here waiting for something or someone. I was not sure, but now i believe it was you - she said with that particular smile on her face that helped him to relax.

They introduced each other, him as Tsarg Karr from Coronet in the Corellia system and she simply introduced herself as Safia Storm. She explained something about this meeting that was meant to be. She then invited him to follow her somewhere because she had something to show him, and the images of his dreams came back in a flash to his mind. He could see himself following her by the hand and before he kew it the dream had ended and she was whispering to his hear the name of the place they were going to so he could buy the ticket for the shuttle. He didnt ask anymore questions, he simply did it. He bought the ticket and got inside the shuttle leading to an unknown place in Dantooine.
