Prologue

Cass has believed in fair play for as she can remember. Growing up, it was the norm for wealthier and gifted people to be automatically welcomed with open arms, regardless of if they actually lived up to their name or not. Many times Cass was beaten out by people who pretended to care for her and betray her when it suited them best. Long story short, Cass didn't trust a living soul; not since she was fourteen. After years of working her way up the chain of command in the Rebellion, Cass feels like she is finally appreciated. That is, until a know-it-all Jedi comes sauntering into the Alliance like he is their only hope. He is quickly trusted by Rebel Command, and Cass begins to feel threatened. She won't allow herself to be bested by someone who believes that they are superior just because they have special "force" powers. Not this time.
