Some rotations passed, and Lexi was getting impatient with nothing to do. She knew the jedi council was preparing and discussing the outcomes of the war happening around them. It's almost been a month since she left Kamino. Left the clones she met, new and old friends.
Rubbing her temples, her eyes stared at the many young kids in front of her. Basic training. Why did I get stuck doing this?
Holding back a groan of frustration, Lexi walked around the room of kids who used a stick to deflect. Using the force to sense it by not seeing. The most basic training all Jedi go through when about three to five years old.
Lexi thought about the conversation she had with some younglings. She heard that they would be appointed as padawans. She hoped whoever became their master would train them well—sighing softly right when doors opened to reveal Master Yoda entering the room. All eyes turned to the grand master who was ancient and well respected. Lexi smiled at the small green figure who dipped his head back in her direction.
Master Yoda addressed the younglings who listened well as he told them important information. Lexi wasn't focused on his words, she was in a mind of her own to ease her tiredness. Lexi looked at the kids who varied in species and age. Each has a unique personality that will shape who they are and how they adapt.
"In deep thought, you are, hmm?" A voice questions causing Lexi to see Master Yoda before her. Dipping her head in respect for the older jedi before her, he had a smile she never understood on the man.
"Yes I am master," Lexi admits to the green creature who tapped his wooden stick on the ground. "I never got to ask, why did you assign Master Plo to me?"
Yoda smiled at the young girl who stood before him, stroking his chin in deep thought. "Guidance I sensed, a new perspective you shall receive."
Lexi examined Master Yoda who spoke in a riddle, something she had gotten used to throughout 18 years living at the temple. Guidance? Lexi was doubtful of what advice Master Plo would teach her throughout the remainder of her jedi training. She believed Master Das taught her everything she required, but now she was uncertain.
"The force will guide you," Master Yoda told Lexi with a tone of firmness and confidence in the force around them.

Gasping for breath, her eyes shot open as yells screamed across the temple. Lexi threw on some clothes right before stepping out into the hall. She scanned the area to see what the problem was, Lexi saw clones running in a direction. However, it was quiet compared to the yelling she heard earlier.
"Trooper, what's going on?" Lexi questions a clone who pauses to focus his attention on Lexi. "Sir, we are reporting to General Windu."
