Chapter 2

Later that day I received a letter in the mail saying that I had been accepted into Jedi Academy!

I went to my room and climbed into my bed and fell asleep with excitement.

The next day I woke up in a shuttle with Ash asleep next to me. Also on the shuttle are my friends. I looked out the front window and saw a bright planet out in front of me. One by one everyone woke up.

“What are we doing here?” says Ellie in a groggy voice, she rubbed her eyes.

“I don't think anyone even knows WHERE we are!” I say.

I stood up and noticed that there was something heavy on my waist. I look down and see my lightsaber attached to my belt! I decided to sit down and think. After we landed a droid told us to walk inside. The school is huge! A droid shows us to our classroom and we sit in our seats. Soon a teacher comes in, he tells us that we are the new class at the academy.

A few hours later we go on lunch break and go down to the cafeteria to get our food.

After classes, we go to our dormitories on the top floor and we all discover that we all share a room.

“Wow this place is awesome!” says Wyatt.

I sit in my top bunk wondering what classes we are going to have the next day.

“Hey, Zach, what’s up?” Whispers Ash.

“I don't know. . . I guess I was just thinking.” I responded.

Early the next day we walk to our first class which to my surprise is starship piloting. Inside the simulators, the controls look more complicated than calculus.

A few hours go by and we are walked out by our teacher to our starships and he says

“These will be your ships when you pass the finals in this class this year. What are you waiting for? Go check them out!”

I walk over to mine and it's huge! I learned it's called the Y-Wing. After the day in my bunk, I was up late again with everyone talking about how excited everyone was.

“I'm so excited to be here!” Says Ash.

“I know it's so awesome!” Wyatt responds.

Finally, we all fall asleep. The next morning I realize that we only have 10 minutes until class starts!

“Guys Girls wake up we gotta go to class! We have 10 minutes!!” Ash belted.

“Wait, What?” Ellie responded, with an unusual frown on her face.

After we all walked to class our teacher came in and told us that today we would be taking a quiz. The quiz is easy, at least that's what I thought. On the test, there are a series of questions that I have no idea how to answer. After that, is my favorite class of the day: Starfighter training.

“Today's lesson, learning combat maneuvers.” Mr. Zephyr says. Yess! My favorite class!

Though I knew that I was one of the only ones that had this as their favorite class because everyone had this bored, and faraway look in their eyes.

Ellie was nervously chewing on her fingernails, because she was always really worried about bad grades, and this was not one of her favorite subjects. Ash was looking calmly unconcerned, but I can tell you that she is more of an introvert, and if you caught a glimpse of what was going on in her head right now, she would become a completely different person. Ryan was more of an extrovert, and from a mile away, you could tell he was terrified that he would crash his simulator from the push of a button. I thought I saw him inching towards the door to leave the room, but it was just those loony-toon teenage girls, who knew they were failing and were going to be put in summer school, but they didn’t seem to care about their education more than they cared about what shade of star gloss (for those of you non force sensitives: lip gloss) they were going to apply every 30 seconds.

“Aria, Mae, Lucy!” Mr.Zephyr yelled. “Stop inching away from the class, and get your glossy mouths over here!” He practically screamed.

Yep. I thought to myself. This was why Mr. Zephyr was one of my favorite teachers. His sense of humor and the way he dealt with annoyances in the class were the BEST! After class, I was walking through the hallway with the others and I saw someone on the other side of the hallway, it took me a second but then it hit me!

“Hugo?! What are you doing here!?” I said in shock.

“Mind your business twerp,” He said.

Ash ignited her lightsaber

“How dare you call him that!” She said, Now THIS was a reaction that NO ONE expected, especially from Ash.

“Oh look what we have here? The twerp has a little girlfwiend. How cute! He pwobably has a teddy bear that he sweeps wif every night!” Hugo said with a grin on his face. At that remark, we ALL ignited our lightsabers.

“Don’t make us use these!” Ryan said, pointing the tip of his lightsaber blade towards Hugo's face.

“Honestly!” Ellie said. “Are you still dwelling on last year?! You need to cry a river, build a bridge, and GET OVER IT!!!”

“Oh don’t worry fools I won't! Hugo said and walked on down the hall with an evil grin on his face.

We all deactivated our lightsabers.

“Geez, I never thought I would see him again,” Ash said, dazed.

We all looked at her.

“What?” she said.

“I have been dating you since 5th grade and I have NEVER seen you be that fierce! Do it more often!” I said.

Ash wasn't the type of person to blush but she did. I could tell that on the inside Ellie was saying “AWWWWWW!” Ellie loves romance, which is kind of unfortunate for Ash and me. I also sometimes wonder how she does not have a boyfriend.

We looked at each other and burst out laughing. Later in the dorms, we were all talking about how the heck Hugo got into this school.

“He is a foul loathsome evil snake,” Ryan said. “He should have made it to Hogwarts, and been sorted into Slytherin!”

“You got that right” Everyone agreed.

We all fell asleep soon after. In the morning when we all woke up and were droning down the long corridor, heading to lightsaber training. We saw Hugo walking in the opposite direction.

“Aww wook it's the twerp and his widdle girlfwiend.” He mused.

“Shut up,” Ash said.

We walked into the classroom and our new teacher was there to greet us.

“Hello students, my name is Master Anakin Skywalker and I will be your Lightsaber training teacher! Now, who can tell me what the heart of the lightsaber is?”

Ash’s hand shot up.

“Yes, Miss Faith,” Master Skywalker said.

“A kyber crystal.” Ash replied.

“Correct!” Master Skywalker said.

“Excuse me?” Ryan said.

“Yes, Mr. Damon?”

“I was wondering if this school had an emotional counselor.”

“Yes, it does.” Master Skywalker said. “Why do you ask?”

“Well, I have someone to request to meet with him ” Ryan started.

“Oh? Who might that be?” Master Skywalker said.

“Well, it would be a boy named Hugo.”

We all could not believe he said that. I looked over at Ellie, and I could see that she was trying to hold in a burst of laughter. And I looked over at Ash, and she was sliding off of her seat giggling. Ryan looked proud of what he had said, and it only got better from there.

“What would Hugo’s last name be?” Master Skywalker said, looking suspicious.

“His last name is Johnson.” Ryan said.

Master Skywalker looked like he was going to lose his lunch.

“Hugo Johnson?!” He practically yelled and clenched his fists. “Oh, I knew that snake was up to something!”

“Yes, sir.” Ryan said. Ryan’s face was so pink, he looked like he was going to explode. (with laughter that is!)

“Yes, well. . . Hugo has always been a bad spot on the apple, hasn’t he, Mr. Damon?”

“Yes, sir.” Ryan repeated.

“Well, then. . . yes,they will write him a request to meet with Mrs. Meek, the counselor.”

“Yeees, excellent!” Ryan said under his breath, acting like a hungry lion ready to pounce.

After class, it was lunchtime, and we all went outside to the bantha track (That was currently vacated) And laughed until Wyatt puked.

“Bleeeaauuugghh!!!” Wyatt belched.

“Eeeew!” We all laughed.

“Wyatt, are you okay?!” Ellie asked, looking concerned.

“Yea, I’m f-fine” Wyatt responded. “J-just laughed so hard I puked up my alian stick (Again, for those of you non-force sensitive people, cheese sticks.)
