Coco had never been the kind of Jedi who was good at letting others down. She was always helping, volunteering to help and almost always had a smile on her face.

Her voice is as gentle as that of a loving, beautiful flower. Coco was like a blossom about to grow into a beautiful flower. With her brown eyes she immediately enchanted. The aura she gave off was calming, surrounded by kindness and warmth.

She often wore her shoulder-length brown hair in a beautiful updo. Coco's brown eyes shone when you looked at her. Although there was a Jedi Code, which Coco held dear, she often found herself acting out of emotion.
It used to be like that.

Coco had watched her master closely. valued him. Detected his wisdom, be careful when he told her something. She did as he said, no questions asked, and learned pretty quickly.
Coco was not only very attentive, observed people and their behavior closely, but also learned very quickly.

If you explained something to her, she understood it. It hadn't been easy, but she had managed to overcome her shadow. Keeping calm, sticking to the code and now she had risen to a master herself. A master with a great deal of wisdom, knowledge of the Force. She mastered the martial arts of a double lightsaber. She was now ready to pass on this knowledge, her wisdom and martial arts.

Adopt a Padawan and train them as their Padawan. Teach him the wisdom that her master taught her. She would be strict as her Master has been to her. She would remain calm when her padawan is shy and lacking in self-confidence, just as her Master did with her. She would give her Padawan assignments, train them, and teach them all that she knows and can, as her master did with her. He might get stronger than she did, but that didn't matter to Coco. It was important to her to have successfully trained a Padawan student. to have trusted him.

Coco wasn't the strongest and she never claimed that. She would never be as good as Master Yoda or Master Windu. But Coco also knew that she was strong if she really wanted to. Because whoever looks at her not only feels the warmth, but also that she is a good person and they don't have it easy. She wouldn't kill them, but she would protect the Order.

Coco had received her first assignment as Master directly from the Supreme Chancellor. She should work with Qui-Gon jinn and his Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi to solve a conflict. Talking was her thing and she believed that was why she should come along.

Coco was good with words, doing business and holding decent mature, mature conversations. She always knew what she wanted and what not. She was able to assess herself and situations and act accordingly. Coco's abilities blended well with the fact that she is a Jedi and one with the Force. Because she had an extraordinary strong will and a strong mind.

She was looking forward to going on this mission with Qui-gon Jinn. He had been one of the first people in the Temple to recognize the power she radiated. She had great admiration for the Jedi Master and now standing by his side herself and embarking on a mission with him filled her with honor. For according to Master Yoda, it was Qui-gon whom she considered "Wise" and "Strong".

He was very wise and a very strong and good Jedi who was better at using the Force than the martial arts of the lightsaber. It didn't mean he was weak. Coco would be lying if she said that. In fact, he was very, very strong and very, very wise. He exuded a pleasant calm and kept a cool head even in difficult situations and acted shrewdly.

Coco had observed many masters. Yoda, Mace Windu and many other Jedis who sit on the council. She has learned something from each of them and appreciates each of them very much. They were all strong, wise and an example to her. Now to be a Jedi Master herself and to belong to them filled her with pride.

Really a lot of pride.

She stood in her quarters, put on the gray cloak and put on the shoes that were there. She clamped her lightsaber to her waist, put the cloak over it and wrapped some beads in her hair and then pinned it up. The Fresh Jedi Master looked down at herself with satisfaction.

It wasn't her first mission, of course, but it was her first mission as a Jedi Master. Once that mission is complete, she would go in search of a Padawan.
Her mother had once had a padawan too.

Yes, her mother had been a Jedi who had violated the Jedi Code. She gave birth to them and then was banished. Coco understood and didn't blame the Order for what happened. She thought it was right. Because when a Jedi starts loving someone, he starts acting out of emotions. That doesn't make him the keeper of the peace he's supposed to be anymore.

Already at a very young age she understood what it means to carry the power within oneself. She tried very hard, learned a lot and quickly. She got along well with Obi-Wan Kenobi since she was a child. He was sort of a best friend between all the youngsters who didn't particularly like her because of their ability to learn and understand things quickly.

Coco had never had a problem making friends. She was open, helpful and nice even to people who weren't nice to her. She treated them well, not allowing emotions like hate or anger. At least not most of the time. Her master had taught her not to let something like that happen.

She and Obi-Wan had always been friends, hit it off, and often tangled, but that was quickly resolved. When they had gotten their stone for their lightsaber, she had been one of the first ones to be outside again. When it was built, however, it was the last one to be finished.

It wasn't because she was weak, but because she was too excited and her martial arts were far better than her power, which was nonetheless strong. At 13, she caught the eye of Jedi Master Mace Windu.

She had been the calmest. She had an aura that had been surrounded by calm and sensitivity. Mace Windu had felt that the young girl was something special and that with the right training she would become a strong Jedi.

She learned from him the wisdom she possesses, the skill to negotiate as well as some fighting styles she learned from him. The Young Jedi had always done what her Master told her to do. He was strict, but that was good. He taught her many things and that brought her to what she is now. A Jedi who was recently promoted to a Jedi Master.

She was known for her empathy, warmth and kindness to every being on this planet and for being quite good at fighting. Coco, however, found that the people and especially the young men who took the young woman as a role model exaggerated. She felt very different from how others felt about her. She was calm in person and yet she often struggles to push back and suppress her emotions. Especially when those emotions are tied to a very special Jedi. She knew and honored the code and would never break it.

One last time the Young Jedi Master checked if everything was right, if she had everything she needed. Only then did she make her way to the hanger to join Qui-gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi on her first mission officially as no longer a Padawan.

With a smile she walked through the beautiful corridors of the temple. She followed the path between the pillars. It was incredible that there was once a battle here led by Lord Darth Malgus and his Twi'lek mate. The pillars were destroyed by a Republican shuttle. The path she is walking on came to a halt and countless Siths were within her. A battle between Jedi and the Siths unleashed. Unfortunately, the Sith won that battle.

The temple was so severely damaged that the Republic was unable to rebuild the temple due to the economic situation.

Coco still felt the cold. Hearing the screams of the Jedis who died, their cries and their pain as they realized they were about to lose. The reality is that even today they don't have enough Jedi to withstand such an attack.

Fortunately, the temple could be rebuilt. Coco sincerely hoped that such a fight between Sith and Jedi would never happen again. The Siths were cruel beings. People who had turned to the dark side of the force.

She had recently heard of a prophecy that is ancient. That there is a chosen one who should balance the Force. Coco hoped that was true and she hoped to meet those chosen ones one day. To be able to help him become a good Jedi. Being an example to him like the Jedi Masters had been to her.

From afar she recognized the ship they would be flying in and she recognized Qui gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi. A small smile played on her lips as she reached them, looked at them and came to a halt. The two Jedis had of course noticed her and both looked at the Young Master.

"Sorry that you had to wait because of me, Qui-gon." She turned to Qui-gon Jinn and finally to his padawan in a kindly loving voice. He still had the same face as years before, only he had gotten bigger. His hair was short and he wore a braid tied together as a sign that he was a padawan.

"This apology goes out to you too, Padawan Kenobi." She emphasized the "Padawan" specifically to tease the young Padawan. It was sort of almost a game between them that they played since they were little kids. Obi-Wan folded his arms across his chest and looked at his childhood friend. The rank of Master made her look more mature. But the smile on her face was the same.

"It's a pleasure to see you again, Master Sawyer." There was a small moment when she was surprised at Obi-Wan's kindness, She understood what he was getting at. "I beg you, you're just jealous because I was made Master before you, Kenobi." Qui-gon had overheard his Padawan's having a certain weakness for the young Jedi.

There was no doubt that he liked and admired the young master. He had often observed her and noticed that she was one hundred percent involved in what she was doing. But he still had to have a serious conversation with his student.

"It is my pleasure to take you on the mission, Master Sawyer. We should go." Qui gon pointed to the ship behind them. The young Jedi agreed with the older ones. Her facial features immediately became serious and yet so incredibly soft. A nod of agreement from her made the three climb into the ship.

However, if she had known what all this entails, she probably would never have agreed to this mission.
