NARRATOR ON

After being escorted to the Jedi Temple by the Clone Troopers squadron, and searched to ensure he was free of weapons, he found himself in the meeting room of the Jedi High Council. Surrounded by some of its members, including the holograms of some of them, as they were away from Coruscant at the time. Among those in attendance were: Jedi Grand Master Yoda, Jedi Master Mace Windu, and Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. And the one known as: "The Chosen One" was also present. Annie Skywalker. The female version of Anakin Skywalker.

Casma: Thank you all for coming. Although some only by hologram.

He said.

Casma: I'm here with a message.

Windu: What message?

he asks, somewhat curious about the masked visitor.

Casma: Let it be known that I am not an enemy of the Republic or the Jedi. Nor am I of the Separatists or the Sith.

Annie: So what do you want?

She asks, being annoyed at having her quiet moment interrupted.

Casma: The answer to this question is simple.

He said turning his gaze to Annie. Smiling under the mask.

Casma: I seek to spread balance across the galaxy. Just what my ancestors sought in their last years of life.

He said, drawing the attention of those present.

Obi-Wan: Your ancestors? And who were they?

Casma's smile widened beneath her mask.

Casma: The ancestors I speak of, both were once members of the Jedi Order, but both were also once powerful Sith who returned to the Light Side. I mean Revan and Bastila Shan.

This took many of those present by surprise. For most of them knew the history of both. The only exception being Annie, who was never very interested in the ancient history of the Jedi.

Yoda: So, their descendant, you are.

Casma: That's right. Even though I have reasons to fall to the Dark Side, I know my late parents wouldn't have wanted that for me.

This took most by surprise.

Casma: When the people on my home planet found out, they tried to eliminate me by burning down my house, with my family inside. I managed to survive, but my parents weren't so lucky.

He said, turning his gaze to the ground and clenching his fists, with everyone present feeling his power with the Dark Side, with some putting their hands close to their Lightsabers, in case of an attack. But the same never came, because Casma took a deep breath and calmed down.

Casma: I'm sorry. Talking about this incident brings back bad memories.

He said. When his face got serious under the mask.

Casma: But I also came to give you a warning.

He said, his serious tone being noticed by many.

Casma: Someone you trust is not who they appear to be.

This got everyone's attention.

Windu: Are you saying that there is a spy among us?

Casma: Yes. But you can rest assured. Not a member of the Jedi Council.

That reassured them a bit.

Casma: But a member of the Senate.

This took everyone by surprise.

Casma: I also had a vision. The Jedi Order being slaughtered by their own troops, being manipulated by a Sith Lord.

This caught the attention of the members present.

Annie: So the spy is a Sith Lord? But this is impossible.

She asks/says.

Casma: Almost nothing is impossible, for those capable of using the Force.

He said.

Casma: Anyway. That's what I meant.

Windu: We were informed that you had a proposal for us.

Casma: And I do.

He said. Soon removing the hood and his mask. Revealing her face to everyone present, surprising them due to her young age. With the same noticing a slight blush on Annie's face, making him smile inside.

Obi-Wan: You're younger than we thought.

Casma: I may only be 18 years old, but I already have a lot of experience. And I'm as strong as a Jedi Master. Or a Sith Lord.

He said, without any hint of arrogance in his voice. Making most of those present realize that he wasn't bragging, but speaking as if he was sure of it.

Annie: I'd like to see it for myself. If you do not mind.

This caught the attention of those present. Casma simply smiled and replied:

Casma: Fine with me. It will be good to gauge the Chosen's abilities.

Annie: So you've heard of me?

Casma: Of course. I heard that you have great combat skills.

He said, making Annie's ego swell a bit.

Casma: But I've also heard that she can be a bit moody and undisciplined at times.

This made Obi-Wan have to stifle a laugh when he saw his former Padawan's reaction.

Annie: I admit it. I can be like that sometimes, but I always act that way thinking about the good of others.

Casma: And that's why I admire you. And I can't wait to face it.

And with that, the meeting ended, with all present preparing to see the duel between a possible ally, Casma Scnov, and The Chosen One, Annie Skywalker.
