Star Wars: Rebels of the Stars (COMPLETED/BEING EDITED)

Chapter Thirty-Nine: Healing

I was deep in a meditating trance, as I focused on the Force. I had my hands on Z's forehead and chest as I was trying to help him heal.

Rather than focusing on training with my saber, I decided to further my training in the Force as I tried to connect more with it.

I of course had asked Z permission to do it one of the rare times that he was awake, which he was glad to as it was helping me too.

I was currently in one of his memories of his childhood, as he wanted me to know more about him.

His home on Swoth was the focus of today.

The forest was far-reaching, wet, and thriving. Its canopy was reigned by hundreds of different trees, who allowed adequate light to pass down for an overabundance of bushes to rule the foliage riddled soils below.

Curling tree limbs waved from the occasional tree, and a range of flowers, which grew all over the place, protruded from the thick view.

A discord of beastly noises, belonging mostly to birds and the carnivorous plants trying to lure prey to their doom, reverberated through the air, and were heard with the sounds of a fight over dominance between larger animals.

Thin vines dangled from a couple of trees, and a medley of flowers, which were seen occasionally, stood out against the varying forest grounds.

A medley of wild sounds, which were caused by rummaging critters, added life to the forest, and with the raging river currents clashing against boulders was a small village which was Z's home.

The village was surrounded by a small fence to keep out unwanted critters, and the dome like homes made of giant leaves and mud were kept up by a wooden frame. Children of all ages ran around, playing tag or some other game.

Z was a small child. Maybe five or six years of age, he was still shy, and hid behind his mom.

"Zart, do you not want to go play with the other kids?"

"No..."

"Why not?"

"I don't want to run around."

"How about we go play with your cousins?"

"Ok...." He clung to her as they went to the house nearby.

But then it went black.

I opened my eyes and saw that Z had woken up. "Hey Z." I whispered softly.

"Hey Mi. Sorry. Did I interrupt?"

"No, you are fine. How are you feeling?" I asked worried.

"A lot better than a few days ago." He slowly sat up as I helped him.

I gave him some water.

"Thanks." He drank it.

I smiled. "Want to try to walk today?"

"Yeah. Didn't think a shoulder wound would limit my mobility." He tried to joke.

I helped him up, and helped him walk to the pilot's pit, seeing Wen and Anoles in there.

"Hey Z. How are you feeling?" Wen smiled softly, turning off the holographic game he and Anoles were playing.

"A lot better. Ready to take on the Empire." He smirked.

Wen laughed. "Good to hear it kiddo."

"Let me do one more check up on you." Anoles gently took him from me and sat him down, doing her routine check up to make sure he was ok.

I heard beeping and looked at Greenie who was piloting the ship in cruise mode with his little joystick he controlled with his arm. "Hey Greenie." I patted his head as he chirped.

"Yeah I know you are having fun." I chuckled, as his head spun around, him beeping happily. Khau was working on the engines, so the two couldn't torture each other.

I patted his head again and decided to do some training. Going to my room, I pulled out my lightsaber, but then put it down on my pillow, and walked to the center of the room where I sat down, crossing my legs.

I started breathing deeply, as I turned my focus into the future. It was not smart to see too much of your own future, but I wanted to make sure that everyone I cared about was ok.

I first focused on my Master, Amalia Vulkri. When she saved me, she became my master, as we believed that my master was dead.

She taught me so much. And I just left her there.

I focused on her, seeing her smiling face, her tired eyes, and the shoulders that carried the world upon them as she refused to let others help bear the burden, and her iris purple saber.

I saw her relaxing a little, drinking her cold water in the hot desert. Then she was on a lush planet, wearing her traditional Jedi clothes with pride. Sitting in a council.

I opened my eyes as I felt a smile creep onto my face. She was happy.

I then focused on Wen.

He was with other clones, laughing and having a drink. Fighting, doing what he loves.

I went to Anoles next, but heard a knock on my door.

"Hey, Gor was wondering if you wanted to learn some new words." Anoles poked her head in.

"I'd be happy to." I got up and walked out that way.
