Jayce was minding his own business while he was walking through the underbelly of Coruscant when he heard shouting and blaster fire then seconds later, he saw a figure skid around the corner and then run towards him looking over their shoulder as a group of men turn the corner after them but because the person was looking behind them, they didn't see him until the person quite literally crashed into him and almost knocked him down.

The man raised his hand and gripped their shoulder and it was then that he realized that the person was a female. She was wearing armor that he had never seen before. The light from the street lights and buildings shinning off her armor, her clothing consisted of a carapace-like armor that hugged her skin and covered every bit of it, including her hands, painted in dark ebony, with white stripes down the front side, a zipper running all the way up to secure herself, her thick hardened boots making sounds of footsteps on the floor. Her hood had slipped off her head when she had crashed into him, revealing long black hair worn freely down her back but there has three small braids on the side of her head with red and black beads eat the end of the braids. Over her almond shaped brown eyes was a pair of glareshades.

Jayce didn't know how old she was...

"Don't let that girl go!" A voice jolted both the girl and man, they both looked towards the men.

"What did she do?" Jayce asked when the group stopped before the two.

"That's none of your business!" The lead man snapped as he reached towards the girl. "Just give her to us."

Jayce got ready to yank her behind him but a growl froze him in his tracks then a black blur shot passed him and tackled the man, who let out a very girly shriek but it ended in a wet gurgle and the black animal stepped off his now still body and hissed at the rest of the men. It angled its body sideways, the hair along its spine raising in a sure sign of aggression. 

As Jayce watched it, he took in its appearance. It had a long narrow muzzle and large erected ears; the creature had orange eyes with vertical pupils that were quite disconcerting to other races. It had extremely sharp teeth that ran along the length of its snout, with four fangs protruding over its lower lip, each ending in a double point. Slightly elastic jaw muscle and cheek increase bite force like a rubber-band snapping back and also allows for a large bite range-like a snake. He could see that it had an extremely long green tongue, which kept sliding from its mouth and flicking as it hissed and growled. It had strong neck and jaws for carrying heavy objects, and biting through bone, muscle and tissue Jayce could see that it had ripped out the man's throat completely. Its chest was deep and its waist was narrow, it was built for speed. It had hand-like paws for climbing and its paws had semi-retractable claws for extra grip in high-speed pursuits, and it has strong, slender front legs for climbing. And it had a long whiplike tail that was wiggling behind it in a aggressive manner.

"...If you guys know what's good for you, you should be running." The girl said and that seemed to get the men moving because they turned and ran away, back the way they came from.

Once they were alone, the girl looked at the creature who looked at her, "What took you so long, Jax?"

The creature, Jax, sat down and chattered at her before it looked at Jayce and stood up, it walked up to him and curled itself around his legs. The girl eyed the creature then she looked at him, "I am Kestra Nerys...thanks for the help."

"But I didn't do anything." Jayce said. "Oh and Jayce."

"But you were and that's what counts." Kestra said with a smile. "It's nice to meet you."

Jax sat down in front of Jayce, right on his feet which caused the man to look down at the animal is surprise. The creature started to make a twrring sound deep in its throat.

Kestra laughed and said, "He likes you."

"...What is he?"

The girl shrugged her shoulders and said, "I dunno but what I do know is that you don't want to get bitten by him." Kestra seemed to twitch and looked over her shoulder. "I think my welcome here has officially worn out...and you should leave too, Jayce." And with that, she was gone with Jax.

And it wasn't until she was gone that Jayce realized that Kestra was Force-sensitive and she had came to a place where it was dangerous for her kind...
A little 'thank you' for the Core, :icondrakarra: I don't know when Jayce is around though during the start of the Rebellion Kestra is either 14 or 15 and he had a pretty much tamed first meeting of the girl...normally there's explosions and blaster fire lol

I might write another first meeting between these two with explosions and blaster fire.

Kestra, Jax and their people belongs to me

Jayce belongs to :icondrakarra:

Ha, this is really cool! Thanks for the read! :)

Yeah, Jayce was 34 when he met Esli, which happened in 1 BBY, so he'd be about 35 here if this is near the Battle of Yavin. Although he has a slightly increased lifespan due to his mixed race, so he's biologically closer to his early twenties.

I thought you captured him well though. :D He's definitely the sort to just look down and blink at the beast sitting on his feet.
