Chapter 4
Hera's P.O.V
I opened my eyes and watched the ceiling fan spin above me. I looked around the dark room but wasn't able to move my head. Great, I'm paralyzed again. I just had to wait until this wears off then I can see what time it was. It seemed to still be night time, this usually happens a night then I try to go back to sleep.
'Man, what's taking so long?' I thought. It never takes this long. That's when I hear the door creaking open. My heart started to race in fear that someone just broke into the apartment. I closed my eyes and pretended to sleep. It was no problem with being quiet and moving so I just closed my eyes. I couldn't help feeling vulnerable to the situation when the door stopped opening.
I cracked my eyelid open a bit to see if I can see the person but there was no one. I opened my eyes and scanned the room but there was no one in the room. Then, I started to get feeling back into my hands and the rest on my body. I immediately shot up and looked around for anyone in case I missed something.
The coast was clear. I timidity slipped out of my bed walked over to shut the door. I pushed the door to shut......that's when I saw it standing behind the door. I screamed in fright.
I shot up screaming and breathing hard with sweat sliding down my face. I looked around the room to see whatever that thing was that was behind the door. I sighed in relief when I realized it was just a dream. My eyes landed on the door which was wide open. My hands started to shake harder than an earthquake.
I gulped in fear and shakily stood up. I slowly walked to the door and reached out to push it back. I put my hand on the door knob and quickly pulled it back. I jumped back thinking I would see the 'thing' but there was nothing.
I backed up until my legs hit the bed and jumped. I wanted to hit myself in the head right at that moment. "It was just a stupid nightmare," I told myself but the feeling wavered when I realized something. Why was my door open? I always close it but I guess I could of forgotten to close it.
I looked over at the clock to see that it was four in the morning. I forced myself to calm down and crawled back into the covers. I laid down on my bed and looked up at the ceiling fan until I grew sleepy and closed my eyes.
The next time I woke up was when the sun decided to try and blind me. I sat up in my bed and rubbed my eyes to scrub the tiredness away. I stood and as I passed a small dresser, I saw my reflection. I looked really tired and the bed head wasn't helping. I rolled my eyes and went into the bathroom.
I took a quick shower before putting on a fresh pair of clothes. Then got ready for the day and before I left for work, I grabbed a bagel slapping some butter on it and a bottle of water. While walking to work and eating breakfast, I saw Ahsoka walking off to school. I would of walked with her if my job was in that direction but it was in opposite direction.
I made it to work just in time to help Joe get the place ready to open. Cleaning was the first thing then taking chairs off the table to the floor and last, open the place. This was pretty much my daily routine unless I have a day off.
The day went by very slowly and the biker gang never showed today. At last, it was time to clean up and head home for the day. Tomorrow I have to work but the next day is my day off! I'm pretty excited for that day to just sit down and relax.
Kanan's P.O.V
I'm not sure how long I've been in this forest for. I'm not sure if I'm ever going to find civilization. I'm not even sure how much longer I will last out here! While I was out here, big animals such as bears and nexus have almost caught me for dinner. I had to use my instincts to get food but my water supply was not a problem.
The cold and noisy nights were always the hardest to sleep through. At times, I would be woken up by thunder and had to sleep in the rain! I'm surprised that I didn't get sick yet. I knocked on wood just in case though. It has been a living nightmare out here but not as bad as watching someone that you love die in front of you. The worse part was that I ran away like a coward.
I came to a stop when different noises could be heard. None of which you would find in the forest. I kept walking until I had to stop because of the electrical fence that was blocking me from my only chance of getting out of the forest. I searched the ground until my eye caught a rock. I picked it up and threw it at the fence.
The fence gave off a zap when the rock it. The fence was actually alive with electricity. I couldn't dig under since there was cement on the other side and climbing wasn't an option which lead to one last option. Let's just say, it wasn't the brightest idea but the only one I had.
I walked up to the fence and carefully stuck my leg through the gap of the fence. Then let the rest of myself go through and my other leg. I got in without electrocuting myself. I would of jumped for joy if I hadn't saw a pair of troopers marching towards me. I quickly concealed my identity and walked like a normal person down the sidewalk of the city.
I looked around to see if I was in Coruscant. My eyes landed on a billboard that said, "Coruscant High School." I was in the city and now I have to find somewhere to stay. I searched and searched until I saw a perfect spot to sleep for the night and to hide. I walked into the ally, grabbed a couple of boxes and built a small fort. Inside was extra cardboard and on top was an old worn out blanket.
I crawled inside and covered the hole. I laid down on the comfy blanket and fell asleep to the honking cars and people passing.
