Chapter Three

        Chapter Three

        We arrived in Courasant about ten minuets later. I was a little scared. I had never been off my swamp-world before, and I had no idea what to expect. The one nice thing was that Reyjin was with me. She grabbed my hand and lead me to an air taxi. She warned me that I might be given some strange looks, but that I shouldn't pay them any mind. Within minuets, we were at the Temple. Saij had told me a little bit about it, but I had no idea it would be this big. It was a large rectanglish shape with a bunch of tall spires. Reyjin looked up at the tallest one. A smile tugged at the corners of her mouth. 
       "Master Windu is going to rail at me so bad!" she said happily. She glanced at me with a gleeful grin on her face. 
        "I love driving him crazy." Reyjin explained. We climbed off the taxi and Reyjin tossed a coin to the driver. Then she lead me up the stairs. My stomach fluttered. There were a few Jedi outside on the steps, and, sure enough, they gave me some funny looks. There was a group of kids about Reyjin and my age, and they were arguing loudly. Well, two of them were. The other one was just standing there, staring a bit nervously. My sister noticed, and stopped walking. She gestured towards them.
         "Look's like Thad and Amesa disagreed. Again." she shook her head and chuckled quietly. "Poor Brandy. I feel for her." Taking my hand, we started walking again.
         "Reyjin! What took you so long?" I heard someone call. They sounded very grumpy. Reyjin sighed.
         "Come on." she told me. We walked over to the voice. It was an older, bald, dark skinned Jedi man with a younger looking male Jedi with a beard. The bald Jedi looked at Reyjin disapprovingly.
         "Reyjin, I told you to find out what was going on, and come back! I didn't tell you to start a battle!" My sister looked very apologetic. 
         "I didn't start a battle! I found... I found..." Reyjin stammered. She pulled me forward. "I found my sister." she said in a quiet voice.  Both the older Jedi looked me over for a silent moment. Then the bald one cleared his throat. I couldn't help but shake.
