Month of the Skyfolders

### Summary

*A new prophecy from Origami Yoda heralds the coming of Noah Jekan, yet another new student. But this one is different, as his joining is the catalyst for a war unlike any McQuarrie has ever seen. Including the return of the feared Jacob Minch, Month of the Skyfolders is one of the EU greats.*

## Plot

Tommy hears a prophecy from Origami Yoda, and writes it down. After that, he spends a paragraph how normal McQuarrie has been, and then says that a new student named Noah Jekan has arrived, and the normalcy stopped, because he started the Skyfolders.

Noah's first day starts off rough. He's being bullied by Zack Martin, but Dwight and Origami Yoda come to the rescue. Some of the McQuarrie gang (Tommy, Kellen, and Sara) join into the battle to take down Zack. This inspires Noah to make a Luke and Leia Skyfolder puppet. Kellen (Who had Luke in the novels) says it's better than the ones he had.

While heading to gym, Noah is stopped by Dwight and is told that he's the Chosen One, along with receiving a note with the prophecy Tommy had heard in Bio Class. Harvey sees the Skyfolder puppets, but doesn't recognize it... but his puppet of Origami Anakin does. This leads the Origami Anakin to turning into Darth Paper.

While Sara is walking with Origami Leia, Tommy, and an Origami Captain Antilles, Harvey stops them, and demands a report that Sara had written, because he is failing some classes (really only getting Cs & Ds). After a chase ensues, they manage to escape Harvey's approaches, and Sara is able to get an A on her paper (Not without the tragic destruction of Tommy's Captain Antilles).

Sara records a video about how her Science Project was stolen by Darth Paper and Harvey, and says that Noah is her only hope. At first, Noah refuses the call to adventure, but after the promised prospect of women, he agrees to help. At Gym class, they dodge some dodgeballs, and Kellen, Tommy, and Noah head to some bikes. They bike around the school, looking for Sara, but they start to think that she's missing.

Sara had sprained her ankle. Tommy isn't taking it well, and snaps at Harvey. There's an interview between Dwight and Tommy about what Dwight had seen of Sara riding her bike. Through Origami Yoda, he says he saw her run over a nail, placed by Zack possibly.

Tommy and Noah conclude that Zack declaring he'd get revenge for what had happened, and what happened to Sara, are connected. A couple days later, they're sitting in the library, and Mrs. Bolt, along with Sara (Now on crutches) enter the room. Tommy is happy about this, and Noah is wearing a smirk on his face. Kellen asks why, to which Noah reveals that he had cancer, and relates to Sara's tiredness, as the cancer also made him tired.

Apparently, Zack Martin has been gearing up for war, recruiting every bully that the McQuarrie gang has dealt with. Noah receives his Luke finger puppet again, and then they hear a loud knock. Quickly escaping through the backdoor, Noah and the McQuarrie gang (including Remi, Quavondo, Cassie, and Rhondella, just to name a few) head on to the roof of the school. Looking at the ground, they see Zack with all the bullies. Noah comes to realize that Zack couldn't have coordinated something so dastardly. It had to have been someone else pulling the strings. His feed is cut before he could reveal who it is.

The battle ensues. Tommy faces against Zack with an origami rancor, and Dwight and Noah are facing against Jacob Minch (See: The Week of Emperor Papertine). Origami Yoda tries to say that he could get Minch onto the light side, but Minch refuses, saying that Darth Zack can become more powerful than any of them. Minch grabs Tommy, but the booming voice of the principal stops the fight in it's tracks. The Principal says that she might need to consider expelling Zack, and takes him to the office, leaving Dwight, Noah, and Jacob alone.

Dwight and Jacob reveal their hidden origin. They were childhood buddies. In 2005, they folded puppets of General Creasious and Emperor Papertine, and they fought against one another while waiting for Dwight's mom to grab a movie poster, reading "Who's your daddy?" with Darth Vader on it. This was meant for Dwight's father. Jacob fell and received a minor concussion, along with emotional scars. When Dwight got home, his dad had abandoned him and his mom, taking the dog with him.

Dwight says some stuff that makes no sense, and then leaves. Noah and Jacob face against eachother on the empty field. Noah picks up Origami Yoda, and begins to fight against Jacob. He snatches up Papertine, and runs to the principal's office.

There it is revealed that Noah's true name is Noah Jekan Minch. He is expelled and sent to a military school because he takes the blame for vandalism and other things that had been occurring at this school during this time. He gets one last look before leaving.

Jacob asks for forgiveness, and gets it. He becomes friends with Dwight again, and is seemingly redeemed. Noah is introduced to Rhondella, and they begin talking on Skype, along with Tommy and Sara. He has made more puppets while at his new school, and he speaks weekly with them. Jacob at the end, however, says that Noah is in trouble, and the story ends with this being left as a cliffhanger.
