Star Wars: Legacy of Rella/Part 1

Chapter 1 - Dantooine
A small ship landed on Dantooine in front of the Jedi Enclave. Out came many Jedi students that just had come from Yavin IV to be transferred. The Jedi Enclave was rebuilt and new, it had five towers in a circle around a larger, more prime tower.

It was made with a shiny copper that would be found on a new protocol droid. On the tops of the towers were golden domes. Around the circle of towers were tall walls of red and dark orange. It had gates on four different directions.

The students were amazed of the beauty of the enclave and were allowed to go inside to the courtyard. The courtyard was mostly grass, and had some trees. Around every tower were vibrant orange tiles. It had some benches and paved areas to rest or practice.

Even though all the students were mature in age, one was in her early teen years at the age of fourteen. Her name was well known of the students as, Rella Sonata. She was a strong Jedi Sentinel, who new much of the force and lightsaber skills.

Another Jedi in white garments comes to the girl. He has auburn hair, and a two-handed lightsaber one his belt. He then said," I am Jeremy Solo. My father has asked you to come and visit him in the Council Chamber."

"Which tower is it in?" asked Rella.

"Middle tower, top floor. I think you could find the rest on your own," he said.

Rella started for the center tower.

"My gosh," she thought," not even escorting me to the chamber."

She found her way to the turbolift and pressed the top floor button. It took a bit to get there, but it didn't matter to her. She looked out the big window to the fields of Dantooine. After she saw past the tall wall, she saw the green grass and a blue and orange sunset just grazing over the green ocean.

The door opened showing a big room that was domed up and had glass for the roof and walls. It was circular and had the New Jedi Order insignia painted on the floor. Around that had white and blue chairs around it. Rella counted about nine.

All, but three of them were being sat on. The others were empty. She came to the center being signaled by the Jedi on the very top of the insignia.

"I am Han Solo II. I believe you are Rella Sonata?" he asked.

"Yes, I am," said the girl.

"I hear you were sent here to give us an item," said the man.

"Yes," she said pulling a lightsaber from her belt. She handed it to the man," I wonder why I had to be under guard through the whole trip."

"You have no idea why, do you," said Han," Master Mark hasn't told you?"

"About what?"

"This lightsaber was Darth Nihilus' from way back in 3,951 BBY. During the Great Jedi Purge. The sith are trying to get it," he said standing up.

"We need to decontaminate it from his DNA on it. The Sith are trying to clone him," explained a Twi'lek Jedi.

"How did it get his DNA on it if others have touched it?" Rella curiously asked.

"The red of the ruby on his lightsaber holds inside his blood," said another Jedi. As he said that the boy from earlier, Jeremy Solo, came in.

"Jeremy, my son, please escort this lady to the women's dormitory," Han said.

"Yes, father," he said with a little groan too. He went into the turbolift, Rella soon followed. He pressed the button to the bottom floor.

"Is Master Han your father?" Rella asked.

"Not biologically, he is my adoptive father, he found me on Tatooine as a slave and bought me so I could be free," he replied.

"You don't seem very grateful your free," Rella said.

"Oh, I am, very much. It's just since my father has been appointed Grand Master he has been to caught up to have time with me," he replied doubtfully.

"That's terrible. What about your mother?"

"She has been on a tight schedule of missions lately."

"Oh."

The door opened to the outdoors and walked through the grass to one of the towers.

"I can't go in there, but the head mistress will help you find your room. She is on the bottom floor," Jeremy said.

"Thank you," Rella said.

"For what?"

"Escorting me to the dormitories."

Rella eventually found her room and slept till dawn at morning. She woke up and got in her clothes and went into the courtyard.

She found only the Jedi Masters and Jeremy scrambling around. They were trying to get all the kids to the ships. Jeremy spotted Rella and said to her:

"What are you doing here?"

"I woke up and I came out here to refresh myself," she said.

"Did you not here the siren?" asked Jeremy.

"For what?" asked the girl.

"The Sith are at the East Gate attacking," said Jeremy," We are trying to hold them off."

Master Han ran up to the two and handed Jeremy the lightsaber," Jeremy, do not let the Sith have this. Take Rella to the Noble Raider to the secret Jedi Academy on Telos," he soon found a republic pilot and said," Take these kids to the Telos Academy."

"Yes, sir," replied the pilot. Jeremy charged to the Noble Raider ship and they got inside. The door closed and they got out of the Dantooine system.
