	This last couple of posts were great, hats of to the writer!! And the cliffie was Evil!!! But I have to say I love this Jag, I mean--In that instance, Leia knew that the Empire would thrive under the leadership of Admiral Jagged Fel. There was a passion there, a drive that would see an Empire through the trying times to come. There was a charisma, a seductiveness to his vision that even she was not immune to. The pilot she had known during the Yuuzhan Vong War, the young man who had almost become her son-in-law, had been an excellent commander. But that man was gone. In his place stood a leader, one who countless beings would give their lives and souls to follow. -- oh my! There wasn't any J/J interaction in this post, because I felt that adding it in would make the post too long. I promise it'll be in the next chapter. I don't think we would mind longer chapters, I mean I don't see a problem there. Jess PS. Still wating for J/J interaction.

	Oh, that was just plain awesome.... I loved the humor...I laughed my but off in the beginning. And Jag...Oh, man, that is so how I picture Jag these days. The common commander is gone, the man who lead by following the orders of others. Now he's the one who leads by chrisma and example and is the one giving the orders. I simply love this idea of Jag... And yes, you know, I could actually see something like this happening. It's just so unexpected to think that Leia and Han, of all people, would support the Empire that they spent their entire lives fighting and trying to defeat..but you know I think if Jag was at the top I could definitely see it. Also, I don't mind long posts at all, especially when they are this well written...great job...

	Freedom from fear? With the attacks on Coruscant and the actions of the Galactic Alliance Guard, that doesn’t seem like something that the GA knows.” “Freedom of thought? Look at the aftermath of the Corellian Vigil.” “Freedom from want? How many planets have yet to see any help with rebuilding from a war that has been over for more than a decade?” “A galaxy without prejudice? Not hardly.” Jag explaining the hypocrisy of the GA government was my favorite part of this chapter. Loved the humor. I think you nailed all the characters. Can't wait for next chapter.

	I just found this story and I was immediately hooked. It's a very bad cliffhanger I hope you update soon. I'm curious to see how Jag and Jaina react when they meet. And why Jag is interested in the Sith... Did he realise Jacen is one? I haven't read Tempestyet so I won't catch certain references. But I am glad the Solos saved Tenel Ka.

	“Great, Han. He thinks like you do.” “Jump out of a conference room, actually.” “Even better. Which way?” Conference Room. Perfect. “Captain Solo, had Darth Vader survived the Battle of Endor, would you have ever let him forget the fact that he froze you in carbonite?” The man had a point. Definitely has a point. Although I understand Leia and Han too. I do feel a bit like ... Ok we get it. You got shot down. Han & Leia vocally supporting the Empire... Yea, that's definitely something big for them to wrap their heads around. Nice job. I wonder what you'll do with the J/J part coming up next. -----signature----- "Hurling black lightning is one thing, but quoting Kyp Durron puts me lower than I ever expected to get."

	PrincessCambria: Thanks! I just love the sarcastic humor What is Star Wars without sarcasm? Please keep writing cause this is sooo good ccp: Thanks! Jessoass: Thanks! But I have to say I love this Jag So do I. I've always loved Jag...but the thought of Imperial, in control, confidant and sarcastic Jag... And now I feel bad for gushing over a fictional character. Oh Well. I don't think we would mind longer chapters, I mean I don't see a problem there. I'll admit it: I'm a hypocrite. I love it when other people post incredibly long chapters, but I can't seem to do it myself. PS. Still wating for J/J interaction Patience, young Skywalker. It's coming. Flowerlady: Thanks! I loved the humor...I laughed my but off in the beginning Thanks! I've been told that I have a bizarre sense of humor by all my friends, so I'm glad that someone else things it's funny. Goes a long way toward convincing me that maybe I'm not as crazy as I think I am. And Jag...Oh, man, that is so how I picture Jag these days. The common commander is gone, the man who lead by following the orders of others. Now he's the one who leads by chrisma and example and is the one giving the orders. I simply love this idea of Jag... So do I. We never really got to see Jag to his full potential in either the NJO or DN. And yes, you know, I could actually see something like this happening. It's just so unexpected to think that Leia and Han, of all people, would support the Empire that they spent their entire lives fighting and trying to defeat..but you know I think if Jag was at the top I could definitely see it. I don't think it's so much the fact that they would support it, but the fact that they would even consider it that shows just how much things have changed. Lyne: Thanks! Jag explaining the hypocrisy of the GA government was my favorite part of this chapter Well, no one else seems willing to point it out. Besides, I wanted to show Jag's thought process that would allow him to fully become Imperial. MaraJade4S: Thanks! and Welcome! It's a very bad cliffhanger I could apologize, but it would be insincere. I have a sort of love-hate relationship with cliffhangers...love to write them, hate to read them. And why Jag is interested in the Sith... Did he realise Jacen is one? All will be revealed...mostly. But keep in mind, Jag now has access to all kinds of information, dating way back. He also can view current events without the emotional family attachment. So...who knows what he knows? Solo_and_Fel: Thanks! “Captain Solo, had Darth Vader survived the Battle of Endor, would you have ever let him forget the fact that he froze you in carbonite?” The man had a point. Definitely has a point. Although I understand Leia and Han too. I do feel a bit like ... Ok we get it. You got shot down. Yeah, Jag's probably beating a dead horse. But I had to put it in. Practically every fanfic I've ever read had some sort of conversation between Han and Jag about carbonite. It amused me to twist it around. ---------- The next part will have the meeting between Jag and Jaina. Will they be: 1) Cold and Civil 2) Vocal and Violent 3) Fighting and Forgiving 4) Passive and Preoccupied 5) All of the above Tune in next time to find out the answers!

	I'm voting for "all of the above" for the J/J meeting in the next chapter. Great work again, I'm loving how you wrote Jag. The sarcasm, the wit...nice job. Thanks for sharing. -----signature----- Everybody lies. - House I wanna live 'til I die, no more, no less. - Eddie Izzard

	Well, I’ve blindly stumbled upon another gem! I have been intrigued by this story from post 1. Your writing is real, your characterizations wonderful and the plot thick, but clear. However, because I’m short on time, I will make only a few comments. 1) Jacen on the Council: Dangerous. I will be very disappointed if Luke actually goes through with this in profic. I agree and empathize with Kyp in this – I was greatly disappointed that Jacen was given that much power – being placed on the Council – when he already has so much within the current GA government. Chilling. 2) Jaina the Exile: A fully feasible concept. Her current legal circumstances are sketchy at best. This may truly be her only option. 3) Jag as Supreme Commander: Rock. On. Enough said. 4) Solo’s Non-support of the new Empire: Honestly, I don’t know that Leia would make such a quick decision regarding this. Despite the past connotation associated with the word and entity that is the “Empire,” she is a sharp political mind. There are wide-reaching implications of the claims Jag makes about the Empire he’s going to forge. To dismiss these ideologies out of hand, would be a mistake, IMO – one I’m not sure Leia would make. Then again, Leia’s fierce support for a democratic nation would of course create animosity towards the seemingly military state Jag proposes. So on that basis, I could see it I suppose. 5) Jaina the… observer: Cannot wait to see where this goes. Hiding in the conference room – pure genius. Awful, terrible, rich-with-shock-factor genius. Even JAG might be taken aback. My favorite line in the last post: “Great,” Han said, turning to Leia. “The kid goes Imperial, then he gets a sense of humor.” When was the next update again? Are you posting regularly or doing PM update notifications? Please add me to the list if so. I have to have more! Well done BBE!

	Here's a little teaser from the next chapter to keep you interested! I don't have time to do reviews now, but I'll get them later tonight, probably with the rest of this chapter. So sorry for the long wait. Between going back to school and some health problems, I've not had all that much time to write. Anyway, enjoy! Chapter 7 “The Sith?” Han’s exclamation was probably heard by people systems away. “Yes, Captain,” Jag said coolly. “As in the dressed-in-black, red light saber, join-me-and-rule-the-galaxy Sith?” “None other.” The tension in the room had lessened during their previous discussions, but it was back in full force. From her place across the room, Leia glared hard at Jag. “If I may ask, Admiral, what do the Sith have to do with anything? As far as we know, there are no more. And if that is true, I can’t think of a good reason for you to be asking about them.” Jag didn’t immediately reply. Instead, he walked over to his desk and opened a drawer. From it, he withdrew a single datacard. “I was under that same impression, Your Highness. Yet this-” He waved the card gently, “would seem to suggest otherwise.” “What’s on that?” Leia asked. “This is a copy of a conversation between two soldiers on their way back to GA headquarters on Coruscant. It concerns the killing of several Bothans, members of the True Victory Party. What is interesting is that they seem convinced that the culprit is someone named Lumiya. Both Masters Skywalker were involved in the raid, and used the word ‘Sith’ in conjunction with the suspect. Neither man seemed to understand what they were talking about, but the Imperial Intelligence operative who analyzed the recording did.” “Have you heard anything about this?” Han leaned back in his chair while Leia stared out the window. Both were lost in their thoughts. Leia recovered first. “No. We haven’t heard anything about…this.” “Of course, we haven’t exactly been asked to sit in on council meetings, either,” Han added, after regaining his equilibrium. “Well, then, is there anyone within the Jedi Order who can be trusted to tell you what they know, someone with recent knowledge?” It was subtle, but Han, Leia, and Davert tensed. It wasn’t too subtle for Jag to notice however. “What aren’t the three of you telling me? Remember Colonel Davert, I can issue orders to you. So I suggest you stop edging your way to the door and tell me what you are trying desperately to hide.” Davert stopped, just inches away from the wooden door. He turned toward his commander. “I just want you to remember, sir, that this was not my idea. I was already trapped aboard that antique that Captain Solo insists is a space-worthy vehicle when this happened. And I didn’t call you because I wanted time to prep you in person, and…” “Who is it, Bron?” There was a detached resignation in Jag’s voice. “Jaina Solo,” he replied, looking back towards Han and Leia. “You brought her here?” Jag asked incredulously. “Remember, sir, not my idea.” For the first time since everyone had arrived, Jag’s composure broke. He lifted his hands to his temples and closed his eyes. After a moment, he lifted his head. “Go get her.” The wooden doors swung open of their own accord. “Never mind. I’m already here.” Jaina Solo stepped into Jag’s office and closed the doors behind her. -----signature----- Foreign Shores Unknown http://boards.theforce.net/beyond_the_saga/b10477/25652011/p1/?21 As Time Goes By: http://boards.theforce.net/beyond_the_saga/b10477/25712846/p1/?0 If It All Fell To Pieces http://boards.theforce.net/beyond_the_saga/b10477/27010990/
