A pale light started to fill the room in which Foxen had stayed the night in, slowly illuminated the cracked and dried furnature of a cheep Inn.
As Foxen arose he felt the aches of battle from the night before. A few cracked ribs, a minor cut across his back courtisy of a being immune to the force. Such beings flooded this planet, 7 feet tall and skin the felt like cold stone to the touch with eyes like the deepest blue saphires, and crude weapons of poorly forged spears.
Just one of these beings, who Foxen later came to know as cold fire walkers, proves a challengeing fight even for a trained Jedi.
Slowly Foxen had worked out the stiffness of his limbs and began to dress for the day, out of habit Foxen moved to equip his lightsaber but found his holster empty. His lightsaber was crushed some months before by the Cold Fire walkers and the planet he was stranded on did not have the materials needed for crafting a new one. Foxen had remained weaponless since then.
Foxen had stepped out of the Inn and walked twards the dawning sun.
Stranger:: Clouds comming from the west, I suspect it would grow dark by noon.
Foxen turned twards the stranger, looking no more then the average resident of the slum, Ragged robes and wheel barrel being pushed in front of him. people here tend to collect scrap metals and other objects thought to be of value for trade.
Foxen:: Do you think the Cold Fire Walkers would come out during the cover? I Could always use some more bounty.
Stranger:: Braver then I sir, but if it gets dark enough i dont doubt a few of them would stray from the caves.
This was the best news Foxen had heard for a while. The city had an open bounty on Cold Fire Walkers, a couple silvers per corpse, possible a gold coin if the Cold Fire walker was larger then normal. It was the only Income Foxen could make while being stranded. The City was not as modern as most. Forgotten by technoligy and people alike. The only currency was rare metals. Credits were of no use to these people.
Foxen had been able to salvage valueble items from his downed ship to establish him self here. Parts of radio here, bits of ship hull there. The Broken ship was far beyond repair. Foxen just wanderd how long it would take the order to trace his last signal.

Several of the other Padawans of the Order didnt know what was going on either, and those who did always found a way to escape questioning by bieng 'busy'.
So, Padawan Wey grabbed the anonimous book, and set of for the Master's Chambers, in hope to find out who this was, and what happened to him.

As a way to get meal tickets Foxen had began to train several of the shop owners basic fighting moves so they would not be robbed so often.
Foxen would have been selling scrap parts from his ship but after 2 weeks the villagers from this town and several others had picked it clean, not even the support frame or his seats were left, just the crater it had made.
After one of Foxens group lessons one of the market keepers were talking about the cold fires migration.
Market keeper#1: Yea ive been hearing from the caravaners that cold fires have been moveing far west tward the planes.
Maker Keeper#2: Not just the ones around here either, Cold fires from all over the land has been on the move.
Foxen had wonderd if was just the bountys that had driven off or if it were some sort of tactical move, or maby he was just thinking too much.

So he was forced to put all of his weight on one arm... and keep it there.
I can't even extend my senses through the Force anymore, I'm so tired. My master could be right in front of me and and I wouldn't be able to tell. How many hours has it been? How many more will it be?
He locked his arm in place more firmly, and steadied his resolve. Through the sweat that was stinging his eyes, he could make out the light from an open doorway. It wasn't there a second ago.
"You may cease Padawan Kaeawc. Your master has been called away. You're free from your training for the rest of today... and..." It was Knight Achilles in the doorway, talking to Kaeawc. Kaeawc slowly bent his aching arm, and then sprung from the pillar to the ledge. "And it appears your Force training is coming along well. Kaeawc, what I'm trying to say is your master is going on a journey."
"Without me?"
"It would be far too dangerous for you, and way too irresponsible of us to let a Padawan out into the world only half-trained. Yes, you are to remain here."
Where is my master going... I should try to see him before he leaves.

The only person he felt he could really talk to was Master Cei, although he had conversed with Master Alpha occasionally.
Walking down a corridor I passed Padawan Chrippe and Jedi Zunin in deep conversation, something about tension and then all of a sudden a big gust of wind flew past me....
"I wonder where he's going so fast?" Padawan Chrippe Asked.
Jedi Zunin replied, "I thought Padawan Kaeawc was training with his master?"
"Who knows..." Padawan Chrippe, said and with that they returned to there original conversation.
Halon was very bored, the only Noghri walking around the temple and feeling a bit left out when a smiley face walked through the door infront of him.
"Hello there." Said Padawan Wey.
"Hello" Halon replied with a smile.
"You look bored." Padawan Wey pointed out.
"Yeah, I don't know what to do. It's not easy being just a hopeful I feel very limited." Halon explained.
Padawan Wey chuckled, "I know how you feel. Come on, come with me."

Inside he would read about the galaxy history and how it has changed over time. Outside he would wander around sparring with others possibly just thinking about what its like to have a master or what its like further out past the reaches of the other jedi orders. and most importantly what its like to own and fly a ship of your own around the breaches of space.
Eventually he got up and walked out of the archives bored and under excited then spotted PadawanLearner Wey and Hopefuly Halon. As he walked over he heard Wey shout "TAG YOUR IT!!!!" and started running then Halon followed watching them disappear into the Garden.
"......"Padawan Vargus sighed and began his long journey back to his dormitory thinking about what usually fills his thoughts. As he was nearing his dormitory he checked his datapad and found a stray file it said "JediKnight Foxen Mert" Vargus was slightly confused and rushed back to the archives he looked up the name of the Jedi Knight.
"foxen mert..foxen mert where have i heard that name" Vargus pondered to himself while rushing around the archives trying to find a file on a Jedi Knight foxen Mert.
He found a small file telling him about his past life here at the temple and how he had...."gone missing in actionhuh" Vargus said slightly shocked, he ran back to his room while carrying the informaton on his datapad that he had read.
Nearing his Dormitory he ran into an old friend "Knight Lei how nice to see you, its been a long time, was the venture succesful?" padawan vargus asked "It was indeed" replied Knight Lei "now please excuse me i must get back to my room'" PadawanVargus said in haste "why the rush? we need to catch up after being away for so long" trying to persuade Padawan Vargus Knight Lei patted Vargus on the back and pushed him in the direction of the cantina while following suit.
" i really need to get back its important" PadawanVargus said agitated while quickly watching his Dormitory pass him by "whats wrong?" Knight Lei stopped and looked at him "Do you remember a Knight here called Foxen Mert?" PadawanVargus asked curiously "Indeed i do......" Lei's face went blank "whats wrong?" Vargus asked "If you wish to know more i suggest you take it up with a Master/Council member" Lei stated firmly then walked towards the cantina silently.
"O"he paused"k" Vargus looked worried he felt as if the higher ranked order members knew something about this foxen mert more then they were letting on.
He began walking back towards his room he passed while being rushed towards the cantina.

"Where did he go?" he mused. Kaeawc looked up and down the hallway, and the alcove Achilles had ducked into. It was the entrance to the Jedi Order Temple's light transport hub for pedestrians to move easily around the planet. Achilles was lost in the sea of heads and cloaks.
I have to know what's happening... I don't have anything else to do anyway.
Kaeawc was pushed and pulled in various directions, by both the tall adults surrounding him and his feeling out of the Force. He tried to grasp the wisps of the presence of the Jedi Knight right in front of him, when abruptly a much more dominant aura passed straight through his body. Kaeawc almost collapsed on the spot. His knees turned to jelly at the thought of the wave of power and wisdom that had washed over him. What was that?!
The adults didn't seem to notice the child Padawan who was not even 13 yet, but Kaeawc did see a crowd parting for Knight Achilles, who seemed to be recovering from the same shock Kaeawc had endured. Achilles moved faster now, almost running. Kaeawc shot through the crowd as fast as he could, pushing heavy robes out of the way. Tw'leks and other foreign alien races he couldn't think of names for yet turned their heads at the now sprinting Jedi.
Achilles ran through the hallways, and soon they were in the Masters' quarters. Kaeawc felt another immense wave... yet however great it was, he could sense its weakening. Both Jedi were now drawing upon the Force to quicken their steps. I have no idea what this means, but it has to be important. If they need someone to help, I should be there. I wonder if Achilles has noticed I'm foll--
THUD Kaeawc ran straight into Achilles's back.
"What are you doing here Kaeawc!?" Achilles looked around, waiting for the elevator. "Shoot... I wanted to be there for him."
"I'm sorry for bumping into you, but... well, at first I was wondering if you knew anything else about my Master, but now there seems something bad happening. I felt this huge--"
Again, a shudder of the Force clenched their hearts and choked Kaeawc's words.
"Kae... I don't think you should be here for this."
"There is something wrong though! I want to help!"
"Kae... you can't help. No one can..."
This time the shudder came sooner, off-beat, more frantic, desperate... and still weaker.
"Fine, you can follow me. But what you see and hear is not meant to go beyond the room we will enter."
"What room?"
"Be patient young padawan."
"Yes, sir."
The two Jedi waited for the elevator to finally arrive. No one was occupying it, so they rushed inside. Achilles keyed in a combination Kaeawc did not recognize. Suddenly it came to him, "Is that a Councilor's room?"
"Yes it is Padawan Kaeawc. Yes it is..."
They rushed skyward. Within seconds they were about halfway up the tower. The doors opened to a scene Kaeawc will never forget.

Another boring day on the dead planet, It looked like rain though.
Foxen decided to go out and find his usual spot for when it rain.
Foxen travled a few hundred yard from town to find his boulder he liked to sit on when it raind, as foxen took his seat a single drop from the sky fell, Foxen used the force to push it to the side of him gently, carefully not to use too much force and waste his strenght, Then another drop fell, missing Foxen just as the first did, gently being pushed from the side. before long there was a light spatter of rain, each and every drop never touching Foxen, and soon that light spatter turned into a downpour. Foxens forhead wrinkled in concentration, his hand clenched his knees, and his head bowed low, and still not a single drop touch him. Foxen started doing this exercize when he felt his training slipping after the Coldfire beings vanished, Foxen had no out put for his force, and the fealing from useing the force to push each and every individual rain drop away was indiscribible, and once the rain had reached a steady rythem, Foxen had begun sending his message through the force.
