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.

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.



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.

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.

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.

Part 7 - Hours Later!

Continued from here.


Don't know how long I slept but when I woke up Master Luminara was there waiting to talk to me.

"Barriss?" My Master said as she held my hand.

"Hmm" as I tried to find my voice "Yes Master!" I slowly said as I opened my eyes.

"Lunch will be here soon and so will Healer Dimon. She wants to talk to you before you leave today." Master Luminara said as I sat up in bed.

"Leave, Master?" I asked with a little worry in my voice.

"Yes, your healed enough to go back to your own room here at the temple. And in a few days time maybe go back to classes!" My master started as she looked me over. It was almost as if this would be the last time that we would be together.

"Master is something wrong?" I asked.

"No, Barriss nothing is wrong. It's just that you have a meeting with the Jedi council tomorrow." Master Luminara said with a look of sadness in her eyes.

"Am I going to be punished for healing Harvey?" I slowly asked.

My Master looked at me and smiled "No, I don't think that's why they want to see you for."

"Oh!?" was all I could say when one of the healers walked into the ward with a single tray of food. She walked straight up to my bed as she set the tray down on a side table, and asked " Well, how are you feeling today Barriss?" and then went and stood behind my master as I answered her question.

"A little tired but I feel fine!" I said as I sat up and talk to the healer.

"Master Luminara, could you please wait in the waiting room while Barriss and I talk over a few things." the healer asked with a smile on her face.

"Of course!" My master said as she took my hand and lightly squeezed it before leaving.

"Barriss, I'm Healer Dimon! I'm here to ask you a few question about what happened last night." Healer Dimon said calmly and with a small knowing smile on her face.

I nodded and gently said "Did I do something wrong last night?"

"No, you did not do anything wrong." said the healer "I'd just like for you to tell me what happened last night so that when I make my report to the council I will have all the information that I need."

"Of course!" I said and started to explain the event from last night to her. "Well, it all started when Harvey was laying in his own bed crying because he was in pain. This was right after NandeHI had left to go look for a healer to help Harvey. I told him I would sit with him until a healer would come, but I used the force and found out that he had three broken bones." I shook my head and continued talking. "I also used a calming effect that was taught in class to calm him, and it also but him to sleep. After which I just let the force take over from there until the curtain was pulled back."

The healer just sat there with a smile on her face. "Healer Dimon, did I do something to Harvey?"

Healer Dimon smiled and said " No, Barriss! You did something that most padawans can not do without years of training. And it just was a suprise to healers that where there last night that you had gotten up and helped Harvey without the use of Bantha patch to ease his pain as well."

"Here!" She said with a smile as she wheeled the tray of food closer to the bed. "I didn't bring this all the way in here and not have you eat while I was here."

"Thank you" I lightly said.

"Well for now Barriss I must be going and work on this report for the council. I also have to visit with your Master for a few minutes." Her smile would light up her face and she spoke. "After which you should be prepared to leave soon after. I hope that we'll be able to talk again really soon."

I smiled at her and watched as she left the healing unit. How odd for this healer to think that I'll be back to talk to her. I thought to myself as I ate the meal that she left for me to eat.

About a half of an hour passed before another healer walked into the unit.

"Ah, good. I see that you are done with your meal." The healer said as she moved the tray to a side table.

"May I ask, why are you here?" I asked.

"I'm here to help you get ready to leave healing ward today." The healer said with a look of excitement in her eyes. "But before we do anything else, I want to talk to you about why you where here in the healing ward in the first place."

I nodded and she continued on talking "Well, I know that you've been told that you originally passed out due to the heat stroke that was caused by high setting of the heat in the temple." She smiled and continued, "And to why you passed out this last time. Well, a research team has found a tampered bottle that was placed in the refresher. That bottle came from a resort on the plant of Anison. To say the least, it looks like someone is out to kill all of the Jedi." I almost didn't hear the last part, due to the fact that the healer said it so quietly.

"Did you just say that someone is out to kill all of the Jedi?" I quickly asked.

"Yes, I did." she lightly said as if she didn't want to upset me.

"You won't know anything about how that bottle got there?" She asked as she looked directly into my eyes and waited for me to answer.

"No, I do not." I lightly said and kept eye contact as I spoke to her.

"I didn't think you did but still I had to ask for the record." She stated flatly.

"I understand" I fired back. I was getting upset just sitting on the bed not doing anything that would get me out of healing ward any faster.

"Well, then lets get started by getting you into a refresher and dressed to leave." The healer said with a smile.

"Ok." I said and thought if this is how the rest of my day goes it's not going to be any fun.

"Come now, we haven't got all day." The healer stated as if she was joking.

Part 6 - Harvey (Let's try this again!)

This story is a cross over.. to read more or to catch up with the story go here .. Master Luminara's Blog

I could hear the privacy curtain being pulled close as I tried to open my eyes. I could barely get my eyes open in time to see who had been in to check on me.

I vaguely remember that Master Luminara was holding my hand for some time. Maybe it was her leaving!? Or maybe it was just one of the healers checking my vitals? My thoughts just barely pierced my sleep driven mind awake.

Suddenly my eye lids felt like they were heavy steel doors, closing very slowly as sleep quickly but ever so quietly took over my body.

(Hours pass)

I woke up to the sound of someone crying in the bed next to me.

"Calm down, Harvey! You'll wake the other patents with all this crying!" gentley said a female voice that I finaly recognizied the voice to belong to NandeHI, the temple's nanny.

"It hurts!" wailed Harvey as tears streaked down his face, "It really, really hurts!"

"Hmph! warned you not pet wookie inside, I did!" Recognised the voice to belonging to Master Yoda, as he firmly scolded Harvey.

I could hear the worry in NandeHI voice as she asked Master Yoda " Shouldn't the healer be here by now?"

"Be here, a healer should."frankly stated Master Yoda "Go see where the healer is, I will."

I could hear his cane hitting the floor as he left the unit, as Harvey started moaning in pain.

(several Minutes pass)

NandeHI started pacing around the room and started talking to anyone who would listen "Where is he? I thought he was coming right back!"

I could hear Harvey moaning as NandeHI lightly said "Now, now Harvey I go see where the healer is, but you just stay right here and don't move until I come back."

(Minutes ticked away like hours)

Harvey continued to moan even louder as the time slowly passed by. I can't sleep with all this noise that he's making!

"It's alright Harvey." I barely said over a whisper. "Your not the only one in pain."

Harvey continued to cry out in pain as I was talking to him.

"But my arm really hurts!" his voice cracking with sobs as he tried to calm himself down for my sake.

I used the force to check for other injures as I sat up in bed. Since no one else is going to care for this boy, then I will.

I about ready to swing my feet to the floor when Harvey started crying louder and louder in pain.

"Harvey!" I moaned and lightly said "It's alright, I come over and stay with you until the healer comes."

I went to swing my feet to the floor as Harvey cryed out. "Please just make the pain stop!"

"I'll do what I can but you have to calm down, Harvey." I said calmly and tryed to keep Harvey calm and happy as I could.

I pulled the privacy curtain that seperated the two of us, and got my first look of Harvey laying in bed holding his left arm close to his body and his face was red from crying.

"Are you one of the healers?" Harvey looked at me with a questioning look in his eyes.

"No, but I'm training to be one." I stated calmly.

I looked around quickly and saw that the stool for visiters was over on the other side of Harvey's bed. Using the force, I moved the stool around the bed and sat down on it.

Using the force, I gently took the pain Harvey was in away so that I could hold his arm and find out why it was hurting him so. Using a calming effect that I had been taught in class, I calmed Harvey down so that he could sleep while I sat watch over him. And it wasn't long before Harvey was asleep and I could touch his arm and find out why he was in so much pain.

I gently touched Harvey arm and the force showed me that he had broken his arm but not in one place but three different places. Poor kid!

Very gently and carefully I reset each of the breaks with the force. It was a very slow process and took me several hours to complete. But when I was done, I reliazed that Harvey and I weren't alone.

In fact, the curtain had been pulled back and standing there was Master Yoda, NandeHI, and one of the healers. I didn't see these three at first, in fact I was looking over their shoulders and directly into the face of my master. She didn't look to happy to see me out of bed, much less happy that I was helping another with their medical needs. I know, I should have just stayed in bed! But that's not what my medical training taught me to do!

My mind raced as I relaized that there was more then just Master Luminara standing in the room.

When I looked in to the faces of the other 3 that where standing there.. I saw and felt with the force their disbelieve and disaprovable in what I was doing out of bed!

One of the healers come up along side me and looked down at Harvey's arm. A smile appeared as he said with suprise " That's the first time anyone ever has done that without the use of batha pack to ease pain."

Master Yoda turned and said to my master "Talk now we must, Master Luminara." With a nod from my Master I sat and watch as the two of them left the healing ward together.

I started to stand and go back to my own bed when NandeHI looked at me and asked " Now where do you think your going?"

"Back to bed! I'm not needed here anymore, and I should get some rest tonight."I stated and nodded to the healer to take over as I slowly walked back to my bed, closing the curtain behind me and got back into my bed.
