A familiar voice rang clear in your mind. 
                          
Where are you going? 
                          
You looked back through the acrylic glass of the transport as it began to pull away. You focused your eyes to see a tall figure leaning against a tree watching you. Instead of answering back you quickly turned your head away from the window and settled yourself into your seat. You felt your heart beat soften and your mind cleared. You weren't going to let him in. Not again. 
                          
As you watched out the window you quickly realized how close the city was, or maybe the transport was moving quickly. As you came upon the city, you saw many other transports meet your side. You looked over at Alex and his eyes lit up when they met yours. 

                          
"You ready?" There was excitement in his voice. 
                          
You nodded as your eyes fixed back in the window. You were amazed at the sights. There were people riding in on flying creatures. Colors filled the place and flowed through spirited people dancing through the streets. You had no idea any place could be so beautiful and big. The steel buildings reached farther than you could lift your head. You felt a smile breach your lips. 
                          
The transport stopped and everyone suddenly got up and started quickly moving towards the front of the transport. You felt Alex's hand wrap around yours as he pulled you up.
                          
"Let's go!" He guided you off the transport as you stepped down into the city. The city was loud as the temple was quiet. It was somewhat comforting to be somewhere new. 
                          
You and Alex followed the students through the crowd of people. You heard all kinds of languages and above you multicolored cars flew through the air. You were amazed. Your senses were over whelmed. After minutes of making your way through the crowd of people, Alex pulled you through the doors of what looked like a bar. Your heart dropped. You had never drank in your life and you knew you were in trouble. 
                          
Alex pulled you next to him and took seats at the bar. 
                          
"Two is your strongest good sir." He motioned a bag of coins towards the bar tenant.
                          
"Don't worry about it. Jedi drink free." The tenant flashed a smile and began to quickly make the drinks. 
                          
You smiled at being recognized as a Jedi. 
                          
"Enjoy." The tenant said as he placed two purple glasses in front of Alex. 
                          
Alex handed you the glass and raised it to his face. 
                          
"Cheers!" He put his hand on the bottom of your glass and lifted it towards your mouth. You drank it quickly to your surprise.
                          
Your face scrunched as you felt it burning through your throat. It wasn't the best taste. You wondered why people did this for fun. 
                          
"We'll have another round sir." Alex said towards the tenant.
                          
Before you knew it you had thrown back five glasses by yourself. A warm feelings rushed over you. Your cheeks grew warm and your vision blurred. To your surprise, you were drunk.
                          
You couldn't remember seconds after anything Alex said, but to you it was all a big joke. You laughed at everything.
                          
"Wanna dance?" His voice was clouded under the music. He spoke loudly. You nodded and lifted yourself from the chair. You stumbled and almost tripped over the chair in front of you. 
                          
"Woah shit," you chucked at your clumsiness, "let's dance."
                          
He grabbed your handed and spun you into him. You had never seen someone so happy all of the time. He spun you around again and pulled your body against his. You both swayed to the music that was playing through the crowd of people. It was too good. 
                          
His eyes met yours and his hands lingered against your waist. You wanted to kiss him. The burning in your cheeks told you that you needed to. So you did. You felt your lips crash into his and your hands were thrown around his neck. It was almost as if time had stopped. But even through the lips of someone else, you saw Bens face. You didn't want to, but you did. You pulled away in hesitation.
                          
"Uhm.. I'm going to use the restroom. Would you wait here for me?" You felt the blur fall back in your eyes. 
                          
He nodded and released your hips. 
                          
You broke away from the crowd and stumbled towards the restroom. You couldn't feel your face much less your legs. All of the sudden you felt your foot catch on a step. You pivot and quickly grab the air. You fell into a group of creatures who didn't look like you. 
                          
Once you found your footing you turned around to see them all standing over you. Anger in their faces. 
                          
"Did a fucking Jedi just push us?" Said one.
                          
"No no sir I'm so sorry I tripped. I've had.. a bit to drink." Your voice was stuttering.
                          
"You Jedi don't look so tough," Another one said. His fist curled up into a ball as he looked you up and down. "Where's your light saber Jedi scum?" 
                          
You quickly looked down by your side and around you on the floor. You realized when you fell your saber slid it's way across the room by hundreds of feet. You looked back up at the creatures and quickly made a run for your saber. You were stopped by the group of creatures as they dragged you up to your feet. 
                          
"I'll get to go home and tell my friends that I killed a Jedi." A dagger appeared from his pocket. You attempted to lock eyes with any of the students. You locked eyes with Alex from across the room, you cried for help. 
                          
"Alex!!" You screamed. Your cry was quickly cut off by one of the creatures grabbing you by your throat. He lifted you off the ground and aimed the dagger towards your stomach. 
                          
You latched eyes with Alex and he froze. He didn't move a muscle. You felt a sense of hopelessness and you sensed fear. Not just your own. 
                          
He's going to let me die because he's afraid of these guys??
                          
This was it. 
                          
All of the sudden the grip around your neck released. You fell to the floor. The creature lifted in the air and his body threw across the air and knocked into the crowd of creatures who wanted you dead. When you came to you were sure Alex had prevailed. 
                          
A hand was reached towards you. 
                          
"Let's go. Now." Ben lifted you into his arms and cradled you as he ran towards the door. 
                          
You coughed and looked up at him in reassurance. 
                          
"You followed me here?" Your heart pounded in anger. 
                          
"I just saved your life and you're upset because I followed you here?" He chuckled as he pushed his way through the crowd with you in his arms. 
                          
"Thank you, first of all, second of all, I can handle myself. I don't always need you saving me." You pushed against his chest and he dropped you from his arms. His hand still held onto yours tightly as he ran through the crowd towards the gates. 
                          
"Thank Gods I was there, your new boyfriend would've let you die," he stopped in his tracks and stood over you, "don't do fucking stupid things like that again." 
                          
"It's none of your business what I do anymore. Remember?" You looked up at him and breathed heavily. 
                          
His finger lifted and pointed in your face. 
                          
"He's not the one. Don't be a fucking idiot. You know why you went. You knew I'd follow you. Next time, I promise I won't."
