Entropy (Tech x oc)

2

Packing a small satchel full of my essentials; my wallet, sketchbook, a pencil, some food, a hologram projector, and a small data pad that had the tracker-coding removed, (I'm quite techy.) I slipped it over my shoulder and grabbed my light sabers, placing them on my light saber holsters that I put on underneath my cloak.

We weren't aloud many possessions in the order, so packing up was quick. As they believed attachments to people were a vulnerability, they also believed the same for objects.

Grinning at my quick packing job, I sigh.

I was ready to go.

Sneaking out of my courters I rushed down the tall hallways, feeling them loom over me. Almost as if to make me guilty for leaving, it almost felt like everything was trying to guilt trip me into staying. Don't leave the order, you'll have nowhere else to go. You belong here, how could you leave? After all that training? The thoughts echoed through my head, loudly, pounding off the sides and giving ma a massive headache, but I would simply not have it. I've made my choice, let me leave.

It wasn't long until I escaped, the exit to the temple was nearing, but unfortunately, someone had to be there. It could never be easy. I could never just slip away in a quiet bliss, escaping into the night. No, there was always complications.

"Leaving without a goodbye, are you?" A voice spike from behind me.

Whipping my head around, i was greeted with none other than the green gremlin that had been my father figure for years.

I want to groan when I'm face to face with him. He just couldn't let me leave? He knew coming here would make it all the more hard for me to step foot out of the temple. Was he trying to guilt trip me too?

All my thoughts were in such shambles that I couldn't think. I couldn't breathe. It felt like my mind went into overdrive, and although I might be being dramatic, I wished it would all disappear.

Curse whoever brought me to the temple, I wished I was left on that planet.

I never asked for this life, and now that I have decided that, I'm being weighed down and constantly feeling guilty for thinking for myself.

"Yoda" i gulped, sending a glare his way only to receive a chuckle back.

"Fear not, keep your secret I will. Only to say goodbye, I am here." He explains, a soft smile on his face. Although I'm glad he wouldn't alert anyone, as if they could stop me, I still hate for his face to be the lady thing I see.

I smile back, and crouch down, kneeling before him.

"Thank you." Was all I said, as I embraced him tightly. Even my crouched form was much taller than him, but he only chuckled into the hug, before we pulled away.

"Please, be careful Theo." He mumbled, but I heard it. His voice cracked a little as he spoke, and for the first time in a long time I understood the sentence perfectly. For the first time since I've known him, something I didn't have to decipher came from his lips.

Pulling away, I stare at him wide eyed. Was that-?

"Yes, I speak normally. But only on special occasions. Now go, live your life." He chuckled, before his face fell serious. It was a little disturbing; even if I had wished for him to speak normally all these years, it had been something I'd grown accustomed to. It was... it was Yoda! That was his defining trait.

"Be safe, Theo."

That was the last thing I heard, before I rushed out into the night, the city lights beaming down on me as i leaped from roof to roof, formulating a plan in my head.
