'' Faster...Must..run..faster..'' Jacen thought as she darted through the jungle. She had been working on quickening her reflexes ever since the day of the battle. She gathered her legs underneath herself and flew over a fallen tree. She felt the impact in her back teeth as she landed with a grunt. '' Gotta-...Keep going.. must be faster.'' She cringed at the thought,'' If only I had been faster..'' She thought in pain. With another leap, she came to a stop on the edge of a small hill. She sat there panting for a moment, then stopped to drink in a small stream at her feet. She sighed as she looked at her reflecton. Many saw a beautiful lionness with deep blue eyes. The only thing she saw was a burden to her homeland, a lionness who had let her whole pride down. She stared up into the night sky. She'd been told the great kings of the past were up there, and she wondered if maybe her leader was too. She fell emtionally pained onto the ground, sending a few specks of dirt, leaves, and a few feathers, floating into the night sky.
