Johnathan shook her hand. "I've been a Jedi for a while yes. I'm the Blademaster of the Jedi Order. Thank you. Yes,Hutt's are very disgusting creatures."he answers after she got done,then when she starts he gave a smile until he heard that name,Master Albright...it hit him hard,he hadn't seen or heard from Jade in a long time. He truly missed her. "Yes Master Albright has beautiful hair."he agreed with her,"Yes,I have met her.."he wanted to say more but decided it best to tell her later..that might be the secret to getting her to be quiet to tell her stories.
He smiled,"Patience young one,be mindful of the future but remember to keep your mind on the task at hand,which is to prepare for your training. Training to become a Jedi is long and strenuous. In time you will learn to quiet your mind."he said finishing off answering her questions. "Why don't you tell me a bit about yourself..then I'll tell you some about me?"he suggests. Hoping to calm the questions a bit for now.

The blade master? Really? Wow. I think I've heard of you. Do you know Luke Skywalker? Of course you do, what a dumb question. How come Master Albright makes you sad? I'll try to be patient. Actually, it's not that I'm not patient, I'm super patient, I just want to know everything I possibly can about everything I find out about. I can work a really really long time, especially if something is interesting. Being a Jedi seems really interesting.
I grew up on Ojom. It's in the deep core and no one much cares about us because of that. I like it even though most people think it's way too cold for them. We have huge glaciers and hunt for seals and whales sometimes. My parents are on nal Hutta right now. They hate it because it's hot and the air stinks. My father calls it smog. He says it's ugly there but they owe the hutts money so what can you do right? I'm sorry I'm sweatting so much, it's hot here compared to where I'm used to. I'll shower a lot if it makes you feel better. My mother is really nice. She and my aunts raised my sisters and I while my father and my uncles did most of the hunting.
I know I have a lot to learn. It's like being a hatchling all over again isn't it? I'll just take clutch steps and learn everything I can so I can be a good Jedi like you. I can't wait to learn how to control the Force. I can do it a little bit but I know with training I will get better. I hope some day I'm as good as Luke Skywalker. I know I won't be because he's one of the best Jedi ever but it's still good to have goals isn't it?
She grins ear to ear. For the second time in one day someone actually answered more than one of her questions at a time and didn't lose their patience with her. Perhaps there was something to this Jedi thing.

Having grown sick of baking life day cookies, Gert happily hums in the kitchen while she adds vegetables to a large pot of stew sufficient to feed most of the current padawans and those masters currently on staff. She checks off the day's other meal specials and notes two new padawans are expected with special dietary requirements. One requires very fatty rare meat, preferably aquatic, the other has a high protein diet augmented by crustaceaous creatures and a list of preferences that makes Gert wrinkle her nose in distaste. I'm not making that she thinks and adds the programs to the cook droid's list of duties. I'm not cooking bugs that don't look smell or taste like lobsters she thinks firmly to herself.
She hears her husband and middle son in the dining area and dusts some flour off her tabbard. She'd forgotten to wear her apron again. As usual. "Cook-E, finish these quiche up for me will you? Five bacon spinach, ten cheese and broccoli and the rest sausage and tomato."
"Yes mistress Gert" the droid tells her perkily as it rolls out crusts.
Gert smiles and heads for the caf, grabbing her favorite mug on the way and pouring herself a mug. Her husband and son sit with quite possibly the tallest young lady she's ever seen. Young lady being a bit of a stretch as the large six armed besalisk was typical of her species and from the look on Johnathan's face, probably hadn't taken a breath so far in her long list of questions and comments.
Ah, padawans. and chuckles inwardly to herself. Was I that bad she wonders as she walks over to her husband.

Johnathan smiled,"It seems you know alot about Grandmaster Skywalker,I'm sure you'll get to meet him before its over with."He said to Bertal,after listening to her talk about everything,"I've been to Nal Hutta and it is a very trashy place,my heart goes with your family."he said then sighed loving the energy this young padawan has,he thinks its going to be very interesting to train her,and is happy to accept the challenge.
Then smiling again,"Master Albright doesn't make me sad,she makes me very happy. Its just been a long time since I've heard or even seen her. I miss her very much."He states and then continues on after taking a breath."Being a Jedi is a very interesting life. Just don't set your goals too high so that you won't be heartbroken if you fail. I will teach you everything I know and I will always be here for you my apprentice, I'll be like your Jedi father. As for sweating,you may do what you wish,I'm sure that we can adjust the Saber Arts Academy to fit your needs if you need a cool area to train."he finishes.
"Well, I suppose you want to know everything about your new master. Well I'll tell you everything..just remember though,my past is my past I can't change it and I don't want to. I won't hold anything back from you. I grew up and spent most of my life on Korriban,a Sith controlled world. A dark lord of the sith Darth Nihl found me one day,he noticed the strong aura of the force surrounding me and took me and trained me to become a Sith,which I did. I became Darth Avenger. I spent most of my younger years as a murderer and a terrible person,but the Sith were only using me to do their bidding. Soon they exiled me and weakened me to a state where I could barely survive. So I had no choice but to come to the Jedi. So I soon became a Jedi Padawan after I healed. After becoming a Padawan to Master Gert."He nodded to her as she walked up."I found out about my real father. Master Pappy-Wan Kenobi,and my step-mother was my own Jedi Master. So it made my life very interesting. I wasn't the best Padawan in the world during my early times,I always slipped out of line and caused trouble."he continued,but eventually after I joined the Military and then returned I learned my place and I became a Jedi Knight. Though during this time I learned and Mastered all of the seven forms of lightsaber combat. So I hope your interested in learning how to use your lightsaber though I am also a Healer,I can use the force to heal people if their hurt."He explains."I've been a Jedi Knight for quite a while. But now I have a padawan and I'll train you to become a good and strong Jedi Knight."he finishes.

As he listens to his son speak to his padawan he winks at his wife and pats the seat next to him. He looks forward to watching how well Bertal does and see if his son has what it takes to be a Master. This will try all his skills and if he can pass on his lesson and his student makes Knight then he will have a valid case for the council and his plans.

"Oh, I'm sorry, it's just that your eyes got sad when I mentioned her that's all. I'm never heart broken when I fail. I get bored sometimes but that's not the same as failing. I just like things to be interesting and fun. Using a lightsaber and being able to use the Force sounds really fun and interesting. I bet you don't have to get up to get your own beer do you? You just wave your hand and there it is like magic. That could be really useful in a pinch. I'm sorry you got taken advantage of. I think my parents are being taken advantage of and that's why I want to help pay down their debt because I just don't think they should be paying so much to the hutts when they didn't really do anything other than set up smugglers dens and the Empire is gone now anyways and they still never did anything other than stink up the place.
When I'm a Jedi I'm going to make the hutts leave Ojom. I don't think they belong there. I guess it's good you are the blademaster because I think I'm going to need to be really good with a lightsaber if I want to convince the hutts to leave. I'm not very athletic though. I can hunt but that's not the same as being athletic is it?
It's really cool that you are a healer too. I'd like to learn how to heal people if I can." She notes the small human coming towards them with a cup of caf and notes Pappy patting the seat. "Hi, are you Master Gert? Master Johnathan says you were his master. Are you really good with a lightsaber too? You probably are because you trained Master Johnathan. Do you cook here? Can you teach me? I've always wanted to learn how to cook. My aunts do all the cooking at home because there are so many of them and they leave taking care of the clutch to me which isn't fair as I haven't been a hatchling for a long time you know. Do you have a big family? How many hatchlings do you and Master Pappy have?"
Her hands wave a bit to punctuate her excitement at meeting so many members of her Master's family all at once.

Gert chuckles a little as she sits next to Pappy. "Well, sure, I can teach you to cook if you like. It's a useful skill and I find it relaxing." She looks at Pappy. "Most of the time anyways." She grins impishly at him and thinks gornt just for him.
Pappy has another son older than Johnathan named Scorp and a daughter Grainne who is currently on Concord Dawn as she's married to the Mandalore Jango Fett. We have a young son together, his name is Phil, he's four standard years which is a toddler for a human youngling. Probably what you would call a hatchling."
She shakes her head in amusement. Ah padawans. "As for training your master in saber arts, I'm afraid you would be disappointed in me. His is natural talent that I had nothing to do with. I'm a healer by trade, among other things. I prefer to use my Force talents and hand to hand combat in battle. My saber gets used as a can opener more than it does a weapon." She grins. "It's a really nice can opener though."
She looks over at her adopted son. "I'm glad to see you finally found a good fit. I was getting worried about you." She resists the urge to reach up and ruffle his hair affectionately as she did when he was her padawan.

The holo statics to life, and Grainne's passive face comes into focus. "Dad, Goat, please come to Concord Dawn. There has been causalities. We lost the twins. Ka'ra is ready, and Goat, I need your help......" Closing her eyes she bellows to Kal "KALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL GET THE BOSS...." The holo goes dead.

As Johnathan gives a smile to his padawan he laughs softly,"Don't worry about it,my past makes me who I am today."he laughs,"I don't use the force for a lot of things. Other then when I'm healing or meditating or of course when I'm in combat."he tells his apprentice. "I think Master Gert would be a good person to teach you about healing,if Master Albright were here she would be perfect to teach you."He finishes.
He sits back and watches his former master and Mother talk to his new apprentice,Bertal. He watches his apprentice,seeing that she is excited to become a Jedi it brings warm feelings into his heart. He is happy to finally found an apprentice,"Thanks mom."he answered then gave a laugh at her comment. Then suddenly he felt something through the force and then the holo's flickered to life and his sister came into view,he looked at his parents but mostly his mom,"Want us to stay here or tag along?" he asks ready to jump into action if needed.

As the holo goes out he shakes his head....Why can't anyone ever give him details.....they just scream and hollar and fade away and he has no idea what is needed. He pulls the comlink out and makes two calls. The first to Rico....he tells him to get the Eternity Rose loaded and headed into orbit....and wait for Mjolnir and then dock with her. Next he coms VF-84 and tells him to get Mjolnir in orbit above the Temple and be prepared for the Rose and Stalker....as soon as they arrive he wants them headed for Concord Dawn at best possible speed. "OK Gang looks like the meet and great is over so Johnathan take your apprentice and get her geared up....robes, med kit and some blasters.....then get your gear and meet us outside at the Stalker in fifteen minutes. Gert dear let's head for the Stalker and get her ready to meet the Mjolnir"

She looks from her master to his step mother. "Tag along? But Master Johnathan... I just got here. I don't even have any robes yet." she says and looks down at her travel pants and shirt. She hears Master Pappy's words and her large green eyes go wider. "I can use a blaster. I used to hunt with my uncles sometimes when I wasn't watching hatchlings. I was pretty good too. Whats going on anyways? Who was that woman? Is she related to you? She looks like your father but not as much as you do." she turns to Master Gert. "Is there something I can do to help? I'm very strong if you need someone to help load the ship."

Gert drums her nails on the table top and makes a face. "I just got home. Stang it all. I'll go get Spike and activate the nanny droid. Never get to see my kid. No wonder the Solo kids were maladjusted in their early teens." She shakes her head in frustration and gets up to get her gear together. "Haven't even been to my office to check my messages" she mutters as she walks away.

He stands and follows Gert out of the TapCaf....and as she heads to handle her errands he makes for the Stalker....

Johnathan nods to his father and jumps into action like a soldier taking orders from an officer. He looked at his apprentice,"Lets go get you your things."He said and stood,ready to lead the way for his apprentice,walking out to the door where he waits for his apprentice to follow him.
