The nerve! Someone thought it would be a funny joke to send a bounty hunter after me while I was off training by myself. At least, I can only assume it was a joke, as he was a complete incompetent - or he'd just never been up against a Jedi. I pretty much handed him his butt on a platter, if you'll pardon the crude language. He said he didn't expect such a tough fight from a girl. Pft, whatever.
Then he LAUGHED! Can you believe the absolute nerve? I was about ready to go at him again, but he didn't seem particularly concerned. He introduced himself as Nejaa Fyaar Baas, bounty hunter extrordinare. Yeah right. Arrogant jerk extrordinare is more like it. I couldn't believe it. Then he pulled off his helmet. He was a Twi'lek, too! I told him it was probably not a very good idea to show his face in front of an enemy, but he said that we weren't enemies anymore. I wasn't really sure where he got THAT idea from. Then he said he was done being a bounty hunter and that he was going to go play at being something else for a while, but he'd look me up if he was ever in the area again. Yeah right, like I'd let that happen. I was planning on arresting him and taking him back to the Jedi Enclave, to let the masters deal with him, but he took off before I got the chance.
I had completely forgotten about the encounter when, a year later, I was assaulted by another bounty hunter, this time in busy Coruscant. He didn't seem interested in fighting, though - he just dragged me into a side alley. No one noticed. Some of the worst parts of Coruscant are full of skirmishes and the like. I was ready to FIGHT. My blood was pumping and I was full of adrenaline. But the bounty hunter just pulled off his helmet, and sure enough, there was Nejaa Fyaar Baas. I was going to rough him up anyway, just to teach him a lesson, but he said he was there to warn me - there would be other bounty hunters looking for me on Coruscant, and that I should get out of there ASAP. I told him that assaulting a Jedi just to WARN them was a damn fool thing to do, but he didn't seem to care. He said the risk was worth it. Now what was that supposed to mean...?
I told him I couldn't leave without my master's permisson, but he said that if she knew that bounty hunters were after me she'd let me go. Turned out he was right. Depa shooed me away and told me to get back to Dantooine as soon as I could, back to the relative safety of the Jedi Enclave. She asked Nejaa to take me back, and he agreed - a little quickly, I thought.
I wasn't looking forward to being stuck on a ship with an idiot who thought being a bounty hunter was some sort of game, but it turned out that Nejaa wasn't so bad as I thought when he wasn't trying to kill me. The trip went quicker than I wanted it to, and when we landed on Dantooine I found myself asking Nejaa if I would see him again. He just winked and turned away without saying a word. A week later I received a letter from him... and a week later another letter, asking if I had gotten his first one. (That time I had the good sense to respond.) We kept up the correspondance for another year before Nejaa suddenly reappeared... and asked me if I loved him.
I was so shocked I couldn't reply at first. I thought I had made it very clear in my letters that I was a Jedi, and that I adhered to the Jedi code, and that part of the Jedi code stated that Jedi couldn't fall in love or get married. But when I tried to explain that to Nejaa, he told me that he didn't care about the Jedi code - he wanted to know how I felt, regardless of code. Well, being raised as a good Jedi, I couldn't think about anything without the code, so I stubbornly kept repeating the code over and over, until finally he got so frustrated that he grabbed me by the shoulders and practically shouted, "Dammit, Nomi! I don't give a damn about your code! Do you love me or not?"
I started sobbing. I couldn't help it. I admitted that yes, I did love him, and that I was a horrible, awful Jedi and that my master would be so disappointed.
"Unless your master didn't know," he said quietly.
We were married in a small, private ceremony a couple months later while I was off-world on assignment - just me and Nejaa and a priest, with a couple other priests as witnesses. I've since returned to Dantooine and Nejaa is off bounty hunting, but he sends me letters and visits me every chance he gets. It's so hard being away from him, though, and I fear it's only a matter of time until my master finds out. I'm so afraid....

I'm Nomi Claria Ell, and I'm a 19 year old Jedi Padawan. I was taken from my real parents when I was just a baby - when my master (Depa Toloris, a human woman) felt my force presence. I don't know much about them, other than that my mother was a slave to a man who used her as a dancer at his establishment. I know nothing of my father. It's possible he wasn't even in the picture.
I was always a little bit rough as a kid, especially for a girl, and I guess that translated into my fighting style and force abilities. I fight Juyo with a double-bladed lightsaber. I'm very into all-out offense, and I get really, really into my battles - hence my strongest force ability, Battle Mind. Unfortunately, I'm hopeless at healing, so I have to keep a lot of medicines and med packs with me at all times.
