Qui-Gon-Jinn

@forcemasterjinn​

Yavin 4 wasn’t a planet Breha imagined she’d ever set foot on. Even if one of the Temples had been the Alliance’s headquarters, she mostly interacted with rebellion members via comm, or invited them on Alderaan. Because she couldn’t afford disappearing for a few days, and had too many things to do back home, back then. She had more time now, though. And was entering the former headquarters, without her husband (who did spent time there) or her daughter (who spent even more time there). This didn’t feel quite right. The Queen had decided to come to check on the Jedi, (on Bail’s behalf, he knew some of them more than she ever did) after getting alarming news. When one of them came forward, Breha greeted him with a bow of her head. She had too much respect to the Order not to bow. “Master Jinn.” Breha knew his name because of holos, and stories. “It’s a pleasure to meet you,” she said, a light smile on her lips. Trying to look as warm and welcoming as she could, because after all this time, her formal blank face appeared on its own without her noticing.

The faint crease in Hux’s brow grew deeper as he watched his scouts’ movements on radar. Topographical information in their database was incomplete, so it was expected that his subordinates might have to make a few minor detours, but that did not explain these movements that were so far removed from any known formation. Disorderly. Nor did they communicate their course changes over comms, as required by protocol, and every one of them damn well knew it! Hux demanded a status update. That reinstated some semblance of normalcy for a time, but before long they resumed their disorganized meandering. On his second call for a status update, several scouts did not reply. One dot on his radar had not moved in a long time.

That quiet voice sent a chill down his spine. Hux whirled towards a flash of movement in his peripheral vision, raising his blaster at the offending… tree. He stopped his trigger finger just in time. Hux would happily sear this entire forest off the map if need be, but there was no sense in revealing his position until he had an enemy target. A careful look at his surroundings revealed nothing. Hux’s pulse accelerated like it never did in the simulations. Not one of his scouts had reported any sign of the Jedi, but… they wouldn’t report mind control, would they? He can almost hear Ren and Aiya laughing in the back of his head.

“I am not going anywhere,” Hux hissed. He determined the most strategically located tree and stood with his back to it. “Your mind tricks won’t work on me. By your own pathetic creed you cannot kill me, and what’s more, if I die, so does the Jedi’s staunchest ally in the Senate.” Hux’s words echoed through the misty trees. Still, no target appeared. “Show yourself!”

Qui-Gon Jinn smirked a little bit at him, freaking out over this, but he wasn’t done with him. It's clear that he is not from his time or that he didn’t know much about Jedi’s. He was more than willing to show him, still easily staying out of his view of sight. Appearing behind the tree that Hux was standing behind. “That’s where you're wrong, I haven’t used a single Jedi power against you. The Jedi Order is no more, at least not yet. So there is nothing stopping me from killing you, I have killed my fair share in the past. I'm a bit of a wild card in the past as I didn’t follow most of the Jedi Creed.” Still using that soft voice of his as it seemed the most affected. 

“Though I need to remind you, that peace doesn’t mean weakness. We are coming back and if the Jedi wanted to, we could outnumber you easily. “ In that moment he did learn that Hux is responsible for Padme and that he had done something to her. Not clear on the what or the why, but he moved back and he used force push on the tree, that it would shove Hux not to his knees. Enough to push him away from the tree, like an invisible force pulling him away from tree’s safety. 

“This planet is protected and doesn’t like intruders, I don’t feel like showing myself to you. You're not worth showing myself to. You do see my Master was a dark side user now and he taught me a lot on how to deal with people like yourself.” In that moment he sounded like he was right next to him, speaking into his ear before disappearing into the mist once more. The once quiet forest, as if on cue, started to make noise. As if sensing some disturbance in the area that wasn’t natural in the forest. Birds coming in the area and making noises and backing out the light from their numerous shadows in the trees. As if waiting and watching the show that is going on below as they were roused from their sleeping in the rustling trees. 

closed for qui-gon jinn / @forcemasterjinn​​​​ !

this has been one of the stranger jobs mara has agreed to, & she wants it done with as soon as possible. she was hired to smuggle in supplies for this new jedi order — the man who had spoken to her clearly doesn’t know the truth of what she is, & mara has no plans to backstab a paying customer, little care for any jedi who is not luke skywalker, but something about the situation makes unease prickle underneath her skin. the feeling only grows as she docks her ship at the agreed upon location & steps out, scanning the area warily & finding no one.

the force calls faint distress in the near distance, & she cusses underneath her breath as a hand automatically goes to the blaster at her side. she locks her ship & takes off at a brisk jog, & the trouble is just around the corner. she eyes up the small group of men cornering her customer, sets her blaster to stun, & has two of them on the ground before her presence even registers. what comes next is a flurry of easy blows, movements natural, that ends as it always has : mara standing calmly, her opponents unconscious on the floor. she nudges one of the men with her boot, & then glances back over at her customer, nodding slightly to him.

“jinn. are you alright ? “

It seems no matter the time period, trouble always follows Jinn. It doesn’t help that he takes certain risks that he really shouldn’t take. In these times, he needed to take such risks to survive. Though sometimes that includes pissing people off and he is really trying hard not to use his Jedi powers since that gives him out in a lot of places. 

He started to run and it seemed he ran out of places to run,just as he was about to use a force push, to push them away from him. Mara came to his aid, letting out a sigh of relief. “I’m fine, thank you for the help. We should get going before more show up” He said looking at the scene and how she fought. Curious it was to him, on how she knew that he was in trouble. He would think more on that later as he started to walk towards the ship with the goods hanging on his side. 

he knew others were around him those who had some kind of connection to the force, whatever it may be, but they were hiding and rightfully so after the empire had hunted them practically to extinction. after vader, anakin swallowed heavily as he thought the name, hunted them all down. as a brighter spot moved towards him he tried to herd his companions further down the alley before a voice he only vaguely heard in his dreams spoke half convincing anakin he was somehow hallucinating again. he should’ve known the force would bring back the legendary maverick qui-gon jinn however that did not explain how or even why the other was looking for him. “or you can tell me what you’re doing here and if i should even allow you near my young companions.”

      jyn was trying her best to keep up with the long strides of the jedi master, her focus on not falling behind made his next words take her by surprise. ❝oh, i- i didn’t know that, it’s okay i don’t really now much about …❞ she let the words hang in the air, what was she supposed to say, your culture? religion? this crystal that fuels weapons and yet i wear it like a security blanket around my neck? she bit her lip, ❝i- thank you, for uh for believing it chose me… it was actually my mother’s so-❞ jyn shook her head, ❝i’m not sure i was meant to have it…❞ with a small shrug jyn tried to shake the memories away. ❝i’m heading for some of the aldeeranian settlements❞ she informed him with a smile, ❝are you still good with everything around the temple, i could easily put in a request for anything you might need.❞

Jinn listened and walked to the supplies, he had read about what happened to the planet and it was something that troubled him deeply. It made him feel better that she is making sure they are getting everything that they need with these settlements. “It’s good to meet you too. I can’t speak for your mother, but I’m sure she knew that you would keep it safe.” He gave her a small smile, knowing that he was a bit intimidating at first. 

Hux watched the verdant planet growing larger until its horizon filled the viewport. Coming anywhere near Yavin-4 was a risk for ex-Imperial or First Order personnel. So this reconnaissance mission had to be done with care: a small crew of his best scouts dressed as unscrupulous mercenaries of the kind that would consort with rebel scum, piloting an unmarked craft he had leveraged from one of his more unsavory contacts.   (An unscrupulous mercenary.)   Hux straightened his sleeves for the dozenth time. He wore the same camouflage fatigues as his scouts – a concession to pragmatics, though Hux had insisted on an olive green cap, the best he could do to denote his rank without making himself an obvious target for any rebels or Jedi they encountered.

Jedi. He pursed his lips as the ship closed in on the coordinates for the supposed Jedi temple. Seventh Sister had gathered that information while posing as one of their own, and she had passed it on to Hux and Aiya Ren. Some might say that it would be wiser to let Aiya and Seventh deal with the Jedi, as they were themselves Force users. But that was precisely why Hux had to lead this mission himself – they already had enough advantages over him. He was not about to let enemy intel become one of them. Besides, the Jedi were weak at heart, peace-lovers who would not dare to kill him. Not now. He ran a finger over the neat surgical scar at the back of his neck. With the monitoring device implanted in his brainstem, Hux’s death would mean Padme Amidala’s, as well.

The ship touched down in a grassy clearing surrounded on all sides by fog and jungle. It was too misty to fly closer to the temple, not to mention the risk of anti-aircraft defenses. They would have to approach on foot.

“Fan out,” Hux ordered crisply, “and start towards the coordinates marked on your heads-up display. Report any sign of suspicious activity to me on comm channel 2 immediately. I will coordinate your advance from here. Go.” His scouts dispersed and disappeared into the mist and trees.

It was clear that these weren’t lost people, but looking for the Jedi temple. He really couldn’t have that, not like there was anything to protect. It was the principle of the matter, also those scouts are new to him. He watched the man who is the one in charge, an idea coming to mind. Thanking the force that it decided to be misty today, using the cover of the mist and the trees. First he had to deal with the scouts, it was easily enough to do. 

They were all spreading out, so he went to the first scout, using the Jedi mind trick. To send a scout into a dead end out of the way to where they are going.  Doing the same for the others some were behind Hux and even some were going into dangerous parts of the planet. 

        ❝you know where he is?❞ obi-wan asked sounding hopeful yet full of grief, ❝master, you actually know where anakin is?❞ a part of him didn’t know how to react, the emotions were so overwhelming, if his master knew where anakin was why had he not trusted him to know about it? but also there was that part of him that cared for nothing other than seeing anaking again. still this was about padmé, padmé who was a close friend, padmé who had trusted obi-wan with the life of her children, padmé who obi-wan had learned he had come to love in a life he no longer got to live. letting out a frustrated sigh, obi-wan listened to a few objects break around the room, he had to regain control. he had been through worse according to what people had told him, he could do this, he had to. ❝not only is she being hurt, but they are saying it’s the jedi, we- we cannot be hunted again…❞

Jinn raised an eyebrow as he wasn’t no stranger to having obi-wan breaking things around him. It was his strong connection to the force. He saw the various emotions that he had been suppressing that he could feel trying to break out. A patient and calm smile on his face, this was a frustrating time for the both of them. “Well before you came from the past, Padame asked me to find Anakin. It was something that I spent two years of time doing.  I haven’t been able to find an exact location, but he is somewhere in the wild space. Where we are now, so It’s a matter of trying to narrow down the planets.” He didn’t take offense, he taught him to question everything. 

yavin 4, base one qui-gon & jyn (( @forcemasterjinn​ ))

       the moment jyn caught sight of the watchtower her heart tightened. she had not expected that coming back would feel like this. closing her eyes briefly, jyn could perfectly hear bodhi’s voice rogue, rogue one, what she wouldn’t give to see him once again. when she had first learned about the anomaly that was bringing people back from the death, or taking them out of time, she had been hopeful about reuniting with rogue one, but then days turned into weeks, months into years, and while her time with rogue one had given jyn back the ability to hope, to trust in the force —a hand flying towards her kyber crystal necklace, the image of her mother praying— she was starting to feel less sure about seeing her friends again. 

      she had taken the supply run because if she not kept busy her thoughts would get the best of her. jyn had not anticipated how sad she would feel. still when she heard the approaching figure she tried her best to hide her sorrow. ❝master jedi?❞ she asked even if she knew that only the jedi and those close to them would know the location of their new temple, ❝i’m jyn erso❞ she did not add the part about having their supplies, as she had been told that someone would meet her at the hangar to gather them. 

Qui-Gon Jinn, heard about the extra supplies that would be picked up since he had a bit of surplus that he could give to others. It didn’t take him long to get to the hanger since it was quiet, he did see a figure of a woman. Once he got closer to her, he noticed that she was a bit nervous. “It’s nice to meet you Jyn, I’m Qui-Gon Jinn. Call me Jinn, I have the supplies that you are looking for” He made a motion to follow him, something caught his attention was the kyber crystal around her neck. 

It called out to him a little bit, but it wasn’t his crystal. “That’s a rare crystal, did you know it is white because it’s pure. Naturally all kyber crystals have a flaw in all of them, but not the white. Seeing the crystal has chosen you, it’s very special” He spoke while walking with her to get supplies. He broke the silence with a small chuckle “I’m sorry I didn’t mean to lecture you, it has been a long time since I had seen a white crystal. It’s the heart of a lightsaber, without it’s nothing more than a metal paperweight” He placed his hand on the supplies that he set out for Jyn.

Location: Somewhere in Wild Space

Who: Qui-gon Jinn & Anakin Skywalker

@fearlessskywalker

anakin couldn’t tell you how happy he was that someone had killed jabba though he wished he could thank whoever had done him the favor as he moved on to target those like jabba or gardulla across hutt space and even going deep into wild space to free anyone he came across. traveling so far into hostile space and coming into contact with so many beings had taught anakin to change his clothing to more durable armor and leather mixes, grow his hair to tie it back, and even change his posture all to leave him under the radar for the most part. 

this time his target were a group of children he’d seen cleaning the animal stalls in the market under hostile eye of a older dug. they couldn’t be more than ten and so tiny it reminded anakin how small he’d been when he’d first seen naboo after earning his own freedom. they would be coming with him –the dug had no choice.

leaving the body of the tug laying hidden under a near by cart he’d rounded up wide-eyed children as if they were small ducklings following their mother across calm nabooian waters just as guards turned the corner. lips pressed together to form a grimace under his hood before he heard a voice directly him a way out off the market street where others were blocked. confliction filled him and caused anakin to hesitate for just a second where he flickered into the force to have it guide his actions –this person was supposedly safe for now. 

Jinn stood there, for what seemed longer than a few minutes. He wasn’t sure that he would follow him until he started moving off the market streets. They needed to get out of the well guarded streets, there was something about him that he couldn’t put his finger on. He would think about that later when they weren’t on the streets. Moving down another alleyway staying ahead of the others so he could take care of any danger that might happen.  He encountered a small patrol and made a hand signal to wait, taking the long way around. Since they had kids with him, wanting to make sure it was safe for them. 

Jinn & Hux

@generally-scheming

It seemed like an ordinary day and it was luck or the force that he was in the former control room that he turned into an entering and receiving area. Alerting him when someone is coming, once he has gotten the alert. It was a ship that he didn't know and he didn't feel that he was getting visitors. 

So it was an intruder or someone had gotten lost, putting his hood over his face. He went to step outside, thankfully it was a misty morning, since it rained last night. He walked forward and quietly, using the mist as his cover. He has spent the last two years getting to know this planet, so hiding behind a tree. Seeing it was someone that was not familiar, but it checked out that this would replace the empire.
