Two standard days later, trailing slightly behind the others, Mara and Luke walked hand in hand to the docking bay. They had just dropped the five children off at Tionne's apartment, who had graciously agreed to watch them. Luke said she had so readily agreed to watch them because she felt guilty about telling a certain Anakin Skywalker ballad to a certain little girl. Strangely enough, when they had dropped the kids off, Ben hadn’t complained about being left behind nearly as much as he usually did. Mara figured Ben was either becoming more mature, or he had something up his sleeve. She strongly suspected the latter.

"What was that?" Luke asked suddenly, jerking Mara out of her thoughts. He stopped and turned halfway around, as he was still holding Mara's hand, and stared down the bend in the hallway they had just come down.

"What was what?" Mara asked.

"I thought I heard a sneeze."

"Um, so? We're on a space station Luke. We're not the only ones here."

"I know, it's just…" He turned to face her, his clear blue eyes glinting with suspicion, "It sounded like Ben."

"Oh, Luke." Mara said, urging him forward so they could catch up with the others." You just miss him. He and Ali are safe with Tionne, probably being bored out of their minds by one of her Jedi ballads. You probably just heard a ship mechanic or something. It's nothing to worry about."

"Yeah." Luke said, looking behind his shoulder for one last time. "Yeah, you're probably right."


Ten minutes later, the ten companions, including the two droids R2-D2 and C-3PO, Leia's tall, golden protocol droid, arrived at the ship-filled docking bay. They split into two groups of four as had been planned before-hand, with Han, Leia, Jacen, Tenel-ka, and Threepio making their way to the Millenium Falcon and Luke, Mara, Jaina, Jag, and Artoo winding their way towards the Jade Shadow.

"What was that?" Jaina asked suddenly, pointing at a nearby A-wing.

"What was what?" Mara demanded, slightly annoyed. "Why is everyone so jumpy?"

"I thought I saw something running." Jaina defended herself. "Something short."

"It was probably just a ship technician. "Jag assured her. "Or maybe a droid."

"Maybe." Jaina said, obviously unconvinced.

Five minutes later they had made it to the ship without anything else suspicious happening. After being cleared for departure, Mara piloted her beloved ship into the vast depths of space behind the Millenium Falcon.

"Ready to fight some evil?" Han asked from the Falcon, over the comm.

"I sure hope so." Luke answered, while plotting the hyperspace coordinates General Garm Bel Iblis had given them that would take them safely to Naboo.

Moments later the Millenium Falcon streaked off into hyperspace followed closely by the Jade Shadow.

Two standard days later, the two ships came out of hyperspace to see the beautiful planet of Naboo filling their viewports. And to their comms chirping.

On the Jade Shadow Mara keyed the comm, while Han did the some on the Millenium Falcon.

"Oh finally!" Tionnes worried voice filled the cockpits of both ships. "I thought you would never come out of hyperspace!"

"What's wrong, Tionne?" Tenl-ka asked, the concern clear in her voice.

"They're gone! The children are gone!" Tionne exclaimed, her voice shaky from constrained tears. "A minute or so after you left, Allana burst into tears and began screaming. While I was consoling her, the other children went into one of the rooms I had prepared for them. After I got Allana to stop crying, I sent her to play with the other children. I heard them playing so it didn't occur to me to check on them, but when I went to tell them dinner was ready an hour later, they were gone!" Tionne was now sobbing openly. "I'm so sorry! How can you ever forgive me?" She put her hands on her face, her shoulders shaking visibly.

Mara cursed something that made even Han Solo blush, and reached out in the Force for her children's presence sensing both Luke and Jaina do the same beside her. When Mara focused on where her two children were, she cursed again.

"It's okay Tionne." Mara said, a bit more fiercely than she had planned. "They're on the ships with us."

"Wha--how-? I don't believe it!" Tionne stammered.

"Neither do I." Mara, followed by Luke, Jaina, and Jag, marched to the storage compartment where Ben and Sierra's presence was strongest.

sorry this post is so short whistling

The moment they had been dropped off at Tionne's apartment, the other four children had been staring at Ben intently, waiting for him to give Allana the pre-planned signal for her to start crying hysterically, a talent she had mastered and could now do as easily as she could talk. This would provide enough distraction for Ben and Sierra to slip out of the apartment unnoticed. And, since they had needed to pack a few pairs of clothing for their stay at Tionne's apartment, and some food and water when their parents weren’t looking, she wouldn’t think a thing about them carrying their backpacks around. It was the perfect plan.

After thirty more seconds had passed, Ben decided the time was right. He gave a small cough signaling Allana to start crying. And she did. Very loudly.

"What's wrong, sweetie?" Tionne rushed over to the little girl and tried to comfort her as best she could.

"I want my Daddy!" Allana screeched.

Ben could tell his sister was loving this. Seeeing that Tionne was successfully distracted, Ben motioned for the others to follow him to one of the guest bedrooms, seeking wisdom from the old saying: 'out of sight, out of mind'. Ben figured if he and his cousins weren’t there as witnesses, Tionne might refer to the less advisable condolence: a bribe. That would take Tionne out of the living quarters and into the kitchen, making a safe path for Ben and Sierra to get to the door unseen.

Everything went just as planned. Ben peered down the hallway to see Tionne's back retreating into the kitchen. He gave Sierra the thumbs up sign; he then pointed his finger at the twins.

"You two stay here." he ordered them sternly. Followed very closely by Sierra, Ben tiptoed down the hallway, across the floor of the living quarters, and finally out the door.

When they entered the hallway outside, Ben realized he had been holding his breath. He glanced over at Sierra, to see her also breathing in short gasps.

"That went well." Sierra panted.

"'Course it did, it was my plan after all."

"Oh you're so modest, Ben." Sierra said sarcastically as they began to run to the docking bay. Ben knew that if their parents reached the ships first, his plan would be doomed.

As she ran, Sierra flicked her wildly flowing, long, dark-brown hair out of her face, and began to eagerly pull something out of her pocket.

"What's that? "Ben asked, staring wearily at the powder covered pastry.

"A Perry Powder Bun. "Sierra took a huge bite, and held it out to him." Want some?"

"No, thanks .I'm allergic to them." Ben said, but too late. Some of the powder blew off of the bun causing him to give a very loud sneeze.

Sierra reacted surprisingly quickly. She dropped the bun, pushed Ben into the wall, and covered his mouth with both of her hands to keep him quiet. "Shhh!" she hissed at him.

Ben suddenly realized something strange, something he often did when frightened. He realized that, even though they were two whole years apart, Sierra was only three inches shorter than him.

"What was that?" Ben heard his father ask. He sounded to be only a frightening twenty feet away, down the next corner.

Ben stared fearfully into Sierra's deep-blue eyes. If his parents came back here this trip was going to become really short.

"What was what?" Ben's mother asked.

"I thought I heard a sneeze."

"Um, so? We’re on a space station, Luke. We're not the only ones here.”

"I know, but...it sounded like Ben."

Ben's breath caught in his throat. In desperation, he reached out in the Force, willing his parents not to search the Force for his location. It seemed to work, because he heard their footsteps begin to retreat.

"Oh, Luke." Ben's mother said." You just miss him. He and Ali are safe with Tionne, probably being bored out of their minds by one of her Jedi ballads. You probably just heard a ship mechanic or something. It's nothing to worry about."

"Yeah. Yeah, you're probably right."

Not until his parents' footsteps had faded into nothing, did Ben start breathing again.

"Whoa." Sierra whispered. "That was close."

"Yeah, no kidding." Ben whispered back. "Come on, we have to board one of the ships before they do." He tuned around the way they had came, and began down a dark, little-noticed corridor to their left. "This is a shortcut. I think."


TO BE CONTINUED..... happy

"Are you sure this is a shortcut?" Sierra asked. They had been walking for nearly ten minutes, and had still not found the docking bay.

"Sure I'm sure. Have I ever lead you wrong?" Ben asked confidently, stopping briefly at a two-way fork in their path.

"Yeah. Yeah you have lead me wrong before." Sierra said matter-of-factly. "I can think of six times off the top of my head."

“That time on Dantooine doesn’t count. If you remember right, that was your fault." Ben corrected her absently. He stared intently down the corridor. He couldn’t remember whether he should go left, or right.

"Okay, I can think of five times then off the top of my head." Sierra said.

Ben decided to go left.

"See?" Ben said when the docking bay came into view. "Told you I knew where we were going." He was secretly relieved. The last time he had taken this shortcut, he had gotten hopelessly lost.

"You got lucky." Sierra said.

Ben tended to agree with her, though he would never have told Sierra that. "Hey, it worked though didn't it? We got here before the grown-ups did." He and Sierra began to jog towards where the Jade Shadow was berthed, seeing it was closer than the Millenium Falcon. They knew Han and Mara would never go on a trip without their beloved ships. “We got here even before they did.”

Sierra casually glanced behind her shoulder. "That's because they're right behind us!" she whispered urgently. "Run!"

And run they did, as fast as they could. As the eight adults and two droids entered the docking bay, Ben and Sierra ducked behind a nearby A-wing to keep from being seen.

"What was that?" They heard Jaina ask. But they didn't stick around to hear more. With their hearts racing, and their breath coming in short gasps, the two children sprinted to the Jade Shadow praying all the while that they wouldn’t be seen.

Ben reached the Shadow first, so he keyed in the access code that would lower the boarding ramp. Sierra sprinted up the ramp as it lowered, and immediately began punching in the code that would lower it again. Ben reached the top of the ramp just as it closed behind him.

Without a word, they raced to the storage compartment closing the door quietly behind them.

They sat there huddled on the floor, breathing hard to slow their racing hearts, wishing that the ship's engines would start soon. Finally they did. Ben and Sierra sighed with relief. Only then did they allow themselves to relax, knowing that their parents would never take their children on such a dangerous mission knowingly. Together they took off their backpacks, and began to prepare for a very long trip.



At Tionne's proclamation, Jacen and Tenel-ka stared at each other in shock. Together they reached out in the Force for the presence of their two young sons. Their eyes narrowed to slits when they located them. Followed by Han and Leia, they advanced towards the place where Julian and Adrian's presence was strongest.

Leia's eyes widened in realization as they neared the spot where the children’s presence’ was. "They're in your old spice smuggling compartments, Han!" She exclaimed, giving Han an icy glare. "How did they know about those?"

"That's a puzzler." Han grunted unconvincingly, as he and Jacen lifted one of the floor panels that concealed one of the secret compartments. They tossed the panel aside, revealing three young children squabbling over a box of sugary cereal.


grin stay tuned for Alanna and the twins' story! wink

dancing Thanks dancing
"'Stay here."" Adrian said in a high-pitch voice, mocking Ben. "Easy for him to say. He gets to go." Adrian folded his small arms grumpily. He did not like being left behind.

"It's okay." Julian assured his brother calmly. He took off his red backpack, and revealed the contents within. It was filled to the brim with boxes of sugary cereals; various candy bars, and other miscellaneous junk food. Everything a five-year old could possibly want.

"The moment Ali gets back, we're getting out of here." Julian said sprightly.

Adrian's brown eyes widened in amazement. "Jules' you're brilliant!" His expression was of complete awe.

A moment later, Allana skipped into the room, her long red-gold hair swinging while she nibbled on a sugar cookie with pink frosting.

"What's that?" She asked curiously, peering into the backpack.

"Our food." Julian told her. "We're going to Naboo too."

"Oh Jules, you're brilliant!" Allana squealed, wrapping him in a hug.

"So I've heard." Julian said brightly, brushing pink crumbs off of his shirt

"Let's go now." Allana said excitedly.

"Okay." Adrian walked to the doorway, and peered out. "Tionne's in the kitchen, so she won't see us leave."

"Oh good." Allana grabbed her own backpack, and tossed Adrian his. "Let's go."

The three children quietly scampered past the kitchen where Tionne was humming loudly, and out the front door.

"That was fun." Allana giggled.

"Yep." Julian said enthusiastically. "Say, um...you know the way to the docking bay?"

Adrian shook his head. "Nope."

Allana narrowed her eyes thoughtfully at the wall, then brightened. "I do!" I just remembered a short cut that even Ben doesn’t know about. Come on!" She skipped a short way down the hall, and stopped at a small grate in the wall. She took off the cover, got on her hands and knees, and began to crawl inside.

"Wait a second!" Adrian burst out. "You're going in there?" He would never have admitted it to Allana, much less Adrian, but he was very claustrophobic.

"No, I just had a sudden earge to stare at dust. Of course I'm going in here!"

"But...but it's dark!"

"No problem." Allana closed her eyes, and used the Force to rub some air molecules together. The small ball of light this produced illuminated her face eerily. "Better?"

"N-no! It's so small and, and cramped!"

"You're not scared are you?" Julian asked.

"Who me? S-scared? "No way!" Adrian protested.

"Good, get in then. We’re wasting time."

Reluctantly, very reluctantly, Adrian got on his knees, and followed Allana into the air duct. Adrian was followed in turn by Julian, who quietly put the grate back on the opening.

A minute later, just as Adrian began to hyperventilate, a rectangle of light appeared ahead.

"Hurry up, hurry up!" he urged Allana. Adrian tumbled out of the air duct gasping for breath. That had not been a pleasant experience. Regaining his bearings, Adrian stood up, and slowly took in his surroundings. They had reached the docking bay.

"Let's go to the Millenium Falcon. Grandpa would never go on a trip without it." Julian reasoned.

The three best friends trotted over to the enormous ship, which luckily was quite nearby.

When they reached it Adrian stared up at the hatch, high above their heads ."How do we open the door?"

"Like this." Allana walked over to the control pad, stood on her toes, and with her eyes closed punched in a long string of numbers.

The ramp slowly lowered to the ground.

"How did you do that?" The twins asked in unison.

"I used the Force, of course." Allana said smugly, prancing up the ramp.

Julian and Adrian traded exasperated looks, then followed her up the ramp.

"Where should we hide?" Julian asked, pushing the button that would shut the hatch again, unaware thet Ben,Sierra, and the others had just entered the docking bay.

"I know a good place!" Adrian cried out. He was reluctant to use this particular spot, but he didn’t want the others to think he was scared. He weaved his way to one of the rooms, and began trying to lift a floor panel. Allana, catching onto his plan to smuggle themselves in Han's old spice smuggling compartments, crouched down and tried to help.

"It's too heavy!" she gasped, sinking to the floor.

Adian and Julian traded knowing looks. Together they each took a side of the panel, and easily lifted it off of the ground.

"How did you do that?" Allana asked, amazed.

"We used the Force, of course." They said in unison.

"Ha, ha, very funny." Allana said grumpily, lowering herself into the hollowed out compartment.

Julian followed her down, followed less enthusiastically by Adrian. Together the three friends used the Force to reset the compartment behind them.

"What are you doing here?"Mara demanded angrily, dragging Ben out of the storage department by the front of his shirt. "I know you're the mastermind behind this, so spill."

"We wanted to come." Ben said meekly.

Mara was furious. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath to calm herself. "Luke," she snarled. "please explain to the child why their coming was such a bad idea?"

"What you did was thoughtless, selfish, and reckless." Luke explained, with barely controlled anger. "Wer're not going on some pleasant joy-ride. Wer're on a serious, and most likely dangerous, mission."

"And what's more,"Mara added, "you brought Sierra,Ali, and the twins along on your arrogant little operation."

"No I did'nt!" Ben protested. "It's okay. Ali and the twins are safe on Eclipse."

"Okay, I see two things wrong with that sentance." Mara countered."One," she put up a finger."it's not okay. Two," she held up another finger."Ali and the twins are not safe on Eclipse, they are on the Millenium Falcon."

"Uh-oh..."

"Yeah,'uh-oh'." Mara grabbed the front of Ben's shirt again, and dragged him to a seat in the ships' living space. Using the crash webbing, she strapped him in tightly. "If you move from that chair," she warned him, "I assure you you will regret it." With that she stormed to the cockpit.

Jap then pulled Sierra into the living space, and strapped her in next to Ben. "Don't you get up from that chair."he threatened.

Together Jag, Jaina, and Luke left the room talking quietly enough so that the two children could'nt hear them.

Ben despised being chastened, but the worst part was when, as Luke left the room, he looked behind his shoulder at Ben, the disappointment clear in his blue eyes.

"This rots." Ben said, crestfallen.

"You said it." Sierra agreed.

"You did'nt even get told off."

"That's because you were the mastermind." Sierra said smugly.

With some difficulty, she dug something out of her pocket. "Want some Perry Powder Bun?"she asked, taking the plastic off of the squashed pastry, and holding it out to him.
"O-kay, I'll take your glare as a no." She took a bite sending Perry Powder everywhere, and Ben into a coughing fit.

How long am I going to have to sit here? Ben wondered.


peace

"What are we going to do with them?" Jaina asked quietly, as they left the living space Ben and Sierra occupied. "We can't take them with us. Like you said, we're not on a pleasant joyride. We're on a dangerous mission."

"I don't see that we have that much of a choice. "Luke sighed, running his hand through his hair. He was clearly quite stressed out.

"That's what makes me so angry. "Jag remarked.


They entered the cockpit where Mara was already preparing the ship for a landing.

"Hurry up, Luke." she said, looking around the back of her chair. "Han is already entering the atmosphere."

Luke sat in the co-pilot seat, while Jaina and Jag strapped themselves into the two passenger seats behind him.

Following the Millenium Falcon’s lead, Luke and Mara brought the Jade Shadow through Naboo's cloudy troposphere.

The silver Shadow broke through the cloud cover, to reveal the glittering green of Naboo's plains below.

"It's so beautiful!" Jaina gasped.

And it was. Somehow the little planet of Naboo had escaped the relentless tyranny of the Yuuzhan Vong, and looked just as it had fifty years ago.

The two ships soared over a large glittering lake that was surrounded by glimmering waterfalls, and entered a large city filled mainly with squat brown buildings.

"Theed." Luke identified it, staring at the ships navicomp. "It's one of Naboo's major cities."

"How's that city look as a place to start looking for the clone thingy?" Han's voice crackled over the comm.

"As good a place as any." Luke replied.

Spotting an empty, public landing pad, the two ships set down side-by-side.

Mara undid her crash webbing, and walked into the living space. Ben was sitting where she had left him, but his eyes were red and irritated, and he was coughing uncontrollably.

"Well what's wrong with you?"

Unable to talk from coughing, he pointed to the offending object in Sierra's hand.

"Oh, Sierra." Mara groaned. "Ben's as allergic to those things as his father is." She unstrapped Ben, and gave Ben to Luke to be taken outside for fresh air.

Luke gingerly brushed some Perry powder off of Ben's shirt, took his hand, and bro
ught him outside.

"He probably deserved that, though." Mara commented, as Jag unstrapped Sierra.

Mara and the Fel's joined the others ouside.

"What do we do now?" Jaina asked, looking around. The streets of Naboo were surprisingly empty.

"I dunno, walk?" Han suggested, shrugging his shoulders.

So, with lack of anything else to do, they walked. As they walked down the street, Mara noticed something strange. There were people on Naboo, but they stayed inside their houses occasionally sneaking peaks out their windows and doors as the group walked by.

It only took ten minutes for the twins to start complaining.

"My legs hurt." Adrian moaned.

"I'm hungry."

"Me too. Why-"

"Hey, look!" Allana interrupted, pointing excitedly at an enormous white building that clashed drastically with the smaller brown buildings around it. "It's Qui-Gon!"

"There's no one there, Ali." Leia pointed out gently.

"Uh-huh. Yes there is, he's standing by the doorway." she insisted. "He wants us to go inside."

"It is a hotel." Tenel-ka reasoned pointing out the sign. "And we were needing a place to stay..."

"Come on Leia, let's go check it out." Luke said abruptly. "Everyone else stay here."

Mara gave Leia a confused look, who just shrugged helplessly and chased after Luke.
