Hera's P.O.V

I've been taken to a place called Coruscant City about three months ago. I live in a nice apartment that has two bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen, and living room. The view was breathtaking especially at night when the lights are turned on. I work at a bar called Gorse and the owner, Joe was a nice man that offered me the job so I could get more money. I would eventually run out of money and there was no way I was going to get more from my father.

Although there were still some bad things about the city like it has a higher crime rate. So I basically had to watch my back when I walk to my apartment. Then there was also the fact that there were a lot of homeless people too. That's probably why the crime rate is so high.

A couple days ago, I see people dressed in all white walking in pairs with guns in their hands. Since then, I see them constantly and when I pass them, they say something about an 'Empire.' I didn't want to get involved with whatever this 'Empire' deal is. All I'm trying to do is get through life.

Two weeks ago, I made another new friend. Her name is Ahsoka and she does not like the Empire at all. We sometimes hang out when I'm not busy which helps when I'm very stressed and just want to relax. She is an amazing friend and I'm not sure if I could of gone on without her help.

Then there was my sleeping problem. Since that one night I woke up paralyzed, I've been getting it every once in a while when I wake up. It has been getting worse for some reason but I never told anyone about it, not even Ahsoka. What were the chances that anyone would know anyways? I had no idea what was going on with me to be honest so I kept it a secret.

Besides that, I have been having a not so bad time in the city.

My neighbors were absolutely amazing! They invented me over when I first moved in and gave me cookies. We talked and got to know each other. The woman is a nurse and offered to teach me. We did lots of things but the couple moved out about a month later after the woman found out she was pregnant.

I've kept myself entertained to learn more about nursing and maybe someday I can get a job on it!

Right now, I'm serving some beer to a table full of drunk guys that are in a mortar cycle gang. They came here sometimes and mischief but nothing harmful in anyway. They would crack a couple good jokes and tell stories. At times I listen to them and get a good laugh.

"Hey, remember that time old Rick got so drunk that tried to play baseball with himself," Chuck, one of the gang members said. "Oh yeah, no matter how many times he swung that darn bat he couldn't get the ball even when it was right in front of him!" Joey said laughing at the top of his lungs. I laughed too, these guys were so funny drunk or not. They even gave me a nickname which made me feel like I was apart of their gang.

"Nurse Hera?" Joey called and I walk over. "Yes?" I asked smiling. "I have a problem," he said with seriousness and I tilted my head to the side in confusion. Even the other guys went silent and watched us carefully. "What's the problem?" I asked a bit nervous. "I need a refill," he said and the other bikers laughed their heads off. I smiled and grabbed the glass walking away while rolling my eyes.

I filled the cup and brought it back to Joey. "Here you go," I said cheerfully with the same smile as before. At times they would also joke with me and I would do the same with them. We all had our fun and games in this bar except when a fight would break out often.

   A couple hours had passed and the bikers left a while ago since the bar was going to close soon. "Night Hera," Joe said and I waved him a farewell before heading to my apartment. It was dark out but the city was still alive even if it's extremely late. I always try to avoid allies on the way back to my apartment cause you never know who or what could be down them.

I also avoided poor people cause I don't want to get robbed and I'm to tired to put up a fight. The other reason was that I am afraid that I would have the same fate as my mother. So I try to ignore and avoid any poor people and keep on going.

I made it to my apartment with out any difficulties and grabbed my key. I unlocked the door and entered my apartment. I turned on the light and locked the door again then set my stuff down. I went into the kitchen and made some supper, ate it, then went to my bedroom to get ready for bed. I wasn't sure what to do with the other bedroom so I never really went in there.

I put on some comfy clothes, closed the door, flopped on the cozy bed and got under the covers. As I was falling asleep, I watched the ceiling fan rotate. I wasn't expecting what was going to happen this night...
