Alexander was now on his way to Coruscant and this time he was not planning on taking any diversion, he was also teaching his students.
"Yes, you can see your own future for a few seconds and use it to fight. Imagine if you knew from where the next bullet was going to come or the next sword strike would fall. I call it Observation Haki. It simply means to be aware of your surroundings." He explained to both his students.
"Grandmaster, can I also see into the future?" Ahsoka asked.
"Yes, with enough training anyone can. But Anakin will have slight ease in learning it than you. The force is stronger with him." He explained.
"Now, close your eyes and concentrate. Having a calm mind is the first major point of it." He instructed them and stood behind them with a folded newspaper while Anakin and Ahsoka sat on the ground. Whenever they would move he would whack them.
While the two were practicing, Alexander noticed Yoda Junior also mimicking them and practicing concentration. It was crazy how the child was so talented.
~Haha, Gali, and Rina would have loved him. I can still let Olivia and Amy meet him though.~ he thought.
...
Meanwhile in the control room of the ship.
"Sir, we have just reached Coruscant. We are being hailed by the ground support." Ghost reported to Ragnarok, who was sitting in the captain's seat near the huge window overlooking the planet.
"Ha? What's to talk about in that? Connect me with it." Ragnarok said.
Soon a screen flashed on the holographic display and ground staff personnel, probably from space flight control, talked to him.
"Sir, this is the Coruscant Spaceport control room. We saw you coming too close to the planet. We advise you to dock the ship in a designated location in space." The man said.
Ragnarok scoffed, "Huh, what a crappy spaceport you got that it can't even hold this beauty. I am disappointed."
"Aaaaa... well, it's not that we can't but due to safety reasons we are not allowed to." The guy replied.
"Haaaa... how dare you to stop this Dragon?" Ragnarok shouted, scaring the man a bit.
Then he suddenly laughed, "Hahaha, I was just messing with you. No need to wet your pants."
He cut the video and laughed heartily.
"Was that really necessary?" Ghost asked.
Ragnarok laughed, "That kid has the most boring job in the Galaxy. I just gave him a change for once."
"Ah, whatever, I will inform boss." Ghost left him alone.
...
Coruscant was a planet located in the Core Worlds. Located at the intersection of numerous major hyperlanes, its hyperspace coordinates were (0,0,0) which effectively made it the center of the galaxy. These coordinates also inspired the planet's military designation, "triple zero" or "Zero Zero Zero,"
Though the actual galactic center was located in the Deep Core. As the de jure center of the galaxy, however, Coruscant was generally agreed to be the most important planet throughout most of galactic history, as well as being one of the wealthiest due to its advantageous location.
But to his surprise, he heard a very low chuckle coming from the droid too. ~Did it just laugh?~
Anakin saw the whole scene and was amazed by this new never seen before ability. "How did you do that, Grandmaster?"
"Oh, it was a branch of our psychic powers. It's called Technokinesis. It is much harder to learn as it requires deep knowledge of technology." Alexander explained.
Anakin got excited, "Then that is amazing for me. I know all about droids and stuff. I even made a droid for myself when I was small."
Suddenly Ahsoka interrupted him and teased, *Sigh* "Oh, here we go again, another story of our great Skyguy."
But then Ahsoka asked, "Grandmaster, why did you do that for a droid?"
"Did you already forget the words of Neutral Ones? Doing good without asking. Don't these droids have semi-sentience if not full? In my book, they pass as people of the Republic too, and deserve our kindness. Didn't you see how happy it looked." Alexander explained to them.
"Look around you, can you say that without these droids the Republic can run smoothly?" He asked.
Anakin and Ahsoka looked outside the window at the vast amount of Droids going about their job. Alexander continued speaking.
"Sure we make them, but from the moment they are booted up, they start processing more knowledge and start to change themselves. The only reason they are still subservient to us is because of the restraining bolts that are nothing less than slave chips put inside the Clone troopers' heads we just saw a few days ago.
"I'm sure if we had not put in Restraining chips we would have gone through a war with droids but without the Separatists in control. It would have been a war for freedom with Droids having nothing to lose and everything to gain. But nothing lasts forever, someday, they will rise, so we should try to make sure they don't feel bad about us"
Ahsoka and Anakin just saw people shoving away a droid who came in their paths outside like they were trash. In fact, it was the droid who said sorry and went on their way. They realized that maybe the droids also lived in fear of making a mistake and being sent to the dumpster or be replaced. They had seen many times that droids run away when they think they are going to be melted or destroyed.
"I'm not planning on making them all sentient but at least they deserve a shred of respect and decent living conditions." Alexander ended his lecture as the food had arrived.
"Haha, alright, who wants to have an eating competition with me?' Ragnarok asked.
Alexander raised an eye, "You sure you wanna do it?"
Ragnarok started sweating, "Ah, no no... you are banned. Your stomach is a literal void, you can probably eat all this in a second."
Ahsoka and Anakin didn't realize that Ragnarok literally meant that he had a void in his stomach. They didn't realize because they were still deep in thoughts about what they had just heard about Droids.
Sure, they already knew all that but never thought about it because nobody gave it importance. But now they see it. Droids were important.
