RE: Star Crossed Lovers
Trysta was grateful that the mood was changing. She nodded, "my sister and I were really at the Academy for Jedi teachings. But it was made clear to us that if we didn't pass our classes we couldn't compete. So thanks to Lysire, we were both able to pass."
She slowly rolled over and gazed in to the heavens. "Unlike my sister, I hated the Academy." Her voice darkened in tone as she became serious. "From my first week, I hated it. I know you might find this hard to believe. But I abused over and over again by one of the instructors there. I never really talked about it. I couldn't really tell anyone about it," she paused a moment, "expect to Graff. He cornered me one night and wouldn't stop until I told him what was happening. That night, he stormed the billets for the Instructors. I thought he would actually kill him. I wanted him to kill my abuser. It took all of the masters at the Academy to subdue Graff." She whipped the tears from her eyes, "I so much wanted him dead that night. Instead, they locked Graff up and other members of the Saberblades."
She fell silent for a moment as she drew in her breath, "he visited me that night and warned me that if I was stupid enough to tell anyone else about our little love affair" she half laughed in disgust, "that he would make sure that I would never see my sister again."
She rolled away from Jaden as an attempt to hide her tears and shattered heart, "I hoped that with you it would have been different. That I could be with someone and it not be ripe with pain." she whimpered, "I'm sorry...."
