Song!? Visions!?

I finished all of the paper work, then I turned on my IPOD and slowly walked over to a small book shelf and looked for a book to read.

I selected a very old leather bound edition to read and walked to my easy chair.

It wasn't long before a song (Reel - Never Had To Knock On Wood) came on my IPOD that I started to have visions that really hard understand why this song was causing these visions. (Here let me show you, a few of the visions.)

Have you ever been close to tragedy, Or been close to folks who have.

Have you ever felt a pain so powerful, So heavy you collapse.

I've never had to knock on wood, But I know someone who has.

Which makes me wonder if I could.

It makes me wonder if, I've never had to knock on wood.

And I'm glad I haven't yet, Because I'm sure it isn't good, that's the impression that I get.




Have you ever had the odds stacked up so high, You need a strength most don't possess.

Or has it ever come down to do or die, You've got to rise above the rest.

I've never had to knock on wood, But I know someone who has.

Which makes me wonder if I could.

It makes me wonder if, I've never had to knock on wood.

And I'm glad I haven't yet, Because I'm sure it isn't good, that's the impression that I get.

It makes me wonder if, I've never had to knock on wood, And I'm glad I haven't yet, Because I'm sure it isn't good.

That's the impression that I get.



I'm not a coward, I've just never been tested.

I'd like to think that if I was, I would pass.

Look at the tested and think there but for the grace go, I might be a cowards,
I'm afraid of what I might find out.

I've never had to knock on wood, But I know someone who has.

Which makes me wonder if I could.

I got back to my room and found this tag from Jaina Solo in a stack of homework that Master Luminara left on my desk for me to do.

They must have been use to the sound of the door opening because no one turned towards the sound at first. Then Master Luminara looked over and gently said "Barriss!" Right when she said my name the room when quite and everyone was looking over at me.

"Yes Master." I gently said.

Master Luminara Unduli walked towards me and stopped a few feet in front of me.

We bowed to each other, then Master Luminara walked up and hugged me. While she held me, she whispered "You don't know how happy I am to see you up and about like this." Then she stepped back and smiled at me. I smiled back to her and started wondering what was going on.

It was at this time that the hoverlift door open and out walked Master Yoda . "Sorry to break up this reunion I am. But talk to Barriss I must." He slowly stated as he looked at Master Luminara.

"Of course" My master said as she turned allowing me to walk past her.

I walked up to Master Yoda and followed him onto the hoverlift leaving my master standing there in the waiting room.

I followed Master Yoda off the hoverlift and walked with him until we reached the main chambers for the Jedi council. The room was poorly light when we enter, my eyes slowly adjusted as I kept walking toward the center of the room.

"Barriss the council and I have been talking for the last few hours." Master Yoda slowly stated and waited for my response.

"Master if this has anything to do with Harvey . I stated as I slowly started to explain myself.

Master Yoda looked at me and stated "that is one, among other things."

I stood there waiting for Master Yoda to continue.

"Master Luminara and this council both agree, most important." Master Yoda slowly stated and continued "Give you the title of Jedi Knight, this council does."

I was shocked at first and then slowly said "Thank you Master Yoda. I'll do my best to make this council proud of me."

"Sure that you will, we are." Master Yoda stated. "Speak to you tomorrow the council will. An assignment we have for you. May the force be you with you Barriss."

I bowed and walked towards the door feeling like I had found something that was lost.

When I got to the door and opened it I found Master Luminara waiting for me.

She smiled a knowing smile and said "I'm very happy for you Barriss."

"Thank you master." I said.

We walked to the hoverlift together and I thought to myself this will be the last time we'll be together like this for a long time.

Part 8 - Freedom

Starts here.
continued from here

I slowly stood up and followed the healer to the refresher.

"Oh!" was I all I could say before I nearly passed out from walking a few feet.

"Easy does it. We don't want you to pass out on us again and causing Master Luminara Unduil more worry and grief ." The healer lightly said with a look of worry in her eyes. "Maybe I should have brought a hover chair with me." She frankly stated as she already knew that I was about to pass out from walking a short distance.

"No, I'm fine. Let's just get there and get this over with." I stated and thought to myself, if Master Luminara could see me the way I was acting she'd be very disappointed in me!

The healer looked at me with a look of surprise on her face. Then she slowly took my arm and helped me along to the refresher.

When we got to the refresher, I was wide awake and able to keep my balance on my own.

The healer set the refresher and said "Are you going to be able to do this on your own, correct?"

"Yes" I lightly said and waited for her to continue.

"Alright then, I'll go get a towel and your clothes while your in the refresher. I shouldn't be more then a 15 minutes." She said as she waited for me to reply.

"That's fine." I said and waited for her to leave.

After she had left, took off the gown that I had been wearing and walked in to the refresher.

(15 minutes pass)

"Barriss are you alright." The healer called out as she returned.

"Yes, I'm ok." I answered her back.

"Good!." The healer happily stated. "Barriss, I need to care for another patent so I'm going to set your clothes over here on the bench and your towel is hanging on the towel bar for you to use. Once you are dressed please leave the door a jar so I know you are done."

"Ok' I called out as I heard her leave the room.

Just as the door closed behind the healer, I felt a very faint disturbance in the force. My first that it was nothing. Just someone playing a prank on NandeHI. But then the disturbance hit me with full force.

"Vampi!" I cried out, as I realize to whom it was centered around. I lightly fell to my knees as the disturbance kept getting stronger and stronger.

It was about that time when the healer who had left me in the refresher had returned. "Barriss, did you fall? Are you hurt?" She called out as she grabbed the towel from the bar and rushed over to help me.

I slowly stood up very slowly and said "No, I'm fine! I just slipped that's all." Then took the towel as she handed it to me.

The healer just raised one eyebrow as if she was going to ask a questioning my response.

"Well then, I'll be right outside if you need me." she lightly stated and turned and walked slowly out of the room.

I heard the door close firmly as I walked over to the bench.

I patted myself dry and slowly started getting dressed with the clothing that she had left for me to wear. Although it was one of my usual outfits, it was very baggy in places that it shouldn't have been.

After several attempts, I finally got the belt short enough to work, I looked in the mirror and thought to myself, if this is the best I can do till I get back to my room.

Thanksfully, my cloak hide gathers of material from view.

I slowly worked on my hair, braiding it very slowly and keeping each braid straight. When I was done with my hair, I could finally place my skill cape back on my head, and then flipped my cloaks hood over it.

Then I used the force to gentle open the door for the healer as I went and stood by the bench as the healer entered the room.

"Barriss, would you like for me to help you with your hair?" as the healer came into the room stopped dead in her tracks as two small red dots appeared quickly and then disappeared just as fast from her face. "Oh sorry!" She exclaimed.

"Well, then are you ready to go?" the she quicky asked.

"Yes, I am!" I stated as I started to thinking to myself great now where to?

The followed the healer out of the refresher and down a short hallway to a door. She stopped and looked over at me.

"This is where I leave you Barriss. May the force be with you." she lightly said with a smile

I smiled back and gently said "Thank you, and may the force be with you as well."

She nodded and waited as I opened the door and walked into the room.

The sight before me was one I don't think I'll forget for a long time. On one side of the room was Master Lminara being comforted by Tolk and on the other side was Jos, Uli, and I-Five.

They must have been use to the sound of the door opening because no one turned towards the sound at first. Then Master Luminara looked over and gently said "Barriss!" Right when she said my name the room when quite and everyone was looked over at me.
