RP: The Force is With You Characters: Luke Skywalker Time/Date: Mid-afternoon, 10/03 Location: One end of the roof Warnings/Rating: None Summary: Luke meditates, and tries to find some good in the recent events. Narrative. Status: Complete
Doubts assailed him as he sat in the meditation stance that Ben had shown him.. Was he supposed to be a Jedi without training, without hope, without skills and strength? Sometimes, it seemed like he felt the Force so strong and heard it so very clear, but then other times it not only seemed to vanish from his mind and perceptions, but from his grasp as well.
What if he failed? What happened to the Jedi legacy then? Luke didn’t know. He didn’t know if he could accept things, but maybe he could push them aside for awhile? He decided to try that mode, and settled more firmly, pushing away all physical discomfort, then brought each worry and fear to his mind.
He did his best to banish each one from his mind, to wipe away doubt and fear, to worry less and to just let go and breathe in the afternoon air, calmly and deeply. He slowly grew calm and the fears and worries left his mind. His whole body felt a little looser, a little less heavy as he let himself completely relax. He drifted for a moment, feeling like he could sense energy everywhere, all around him. Everything drained away, and he just floated.
And unbeknownst to him, he floated in real life, as well, propelled above the ground he sat on by the pure power of the Force. He felt it, and relished it, for that one moment. Everything else could wait.
