Loved the Jaina/Tahiri "fight" scene... very nice. Very realistic. Especially the part where Tahiri says "You said make it believable" when Jaina complains about the knock to the head.

So now that they're airborne... how they going to get out of there. I doubt the old deathtrap has it in her!

Nice post!

Great story! Can't believe it's taken me this long to start Reading it. Please add me to your pm list.

I'll write a proper reply later when I am at a computer, typeing on an iPod is a slow and painfull experience.

Cheers

Great read, reminded me of some of your other sequences like leia and han against the wraithan walker or anakin and jaina chasing that bounty hunter (names escapes me) several fics back, really captures the star wars feel.

ive enjoyed this fic so far but this chapter really raised it to a new level, Im looking forward to the next chapter, heres hoping wobbler is back soon :-)

you forget sometimes how good the jedi are even without their lightsabers

Fantastic escape. Nice to see someone incorporate the pod-racing into a story. It's funny to me how rarely you see it.

You showed us some true Solo-style action. Hopefully we can see some redemption for both of them. Can't wait to see our next stop on this wild ride.

That was absolutely the best prison break ever! Those two women (especially Jaina) kicked butt! dancing WOW! It was non stop action all the way out. I loved how Jaina was in so many ways (the lift, the pod) behaving just like her grandfather, but also I love how she just was totally Mando level crazy too! Intense! Great story! applause

Sticks: First?

Way to go applause

That was seriously great.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!

Add "thrilling escapes" to the list of things you're awesome at writing.

You're too kind blush

Thanks so much for reading and replying grin






Vongchild: A brilliant prison break in true Star Wars style!

Hehe. I'm glad you liked it. I love Star Wars escapes.

It was nice to see some characters who don't have to rely on lightsabers and the Force to get the job done. Excellent chapter!

Thanks so much. I think it's going to be interesting writing all these Jedi scenes without the lightsabers.

Tahiri + Jaina = two FIERCE ladies!

Indeed they are love

Thanks for reading and replying! happy








Draconarius: Well, that was certainly an adventure.

Glad you found it exciting peace

I should have known Daala had something to do with Tahiri being in prison. Stupid half-crazy Imperial witch...

Yeah, we'll be finding out a little more about that later. Daala would want to stick it to Tahiri.

Now we need to see what Jaina is supposed to find.

It probably won't happen that quickly tongue

Assuming, of course, that she's right in tracing Jacen's footsteps.

We'll find out where that leads soon. Tahiri and Jaina might have to make one other stop first though...

Thanks for reading and replying grin







Solo_and_Fel: Jaina is so cool.

You know it wink

Thanks for reading and replying!






GrandMasterKatarn: * sniff * reminds me of the good old days of Kyle Katarn. How we miss him.

Are you lobbying for Kyle to show up in this one? tongue

And yeah, Katarn: There was a guy who could make an escape— that is, if he felt like escaping instead of just killing everyone in his path devil

Thanks so much for reading! happy






Shahid_Chestro: Awesome action...great escape scene.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.

interesting that Tahiri didnt use any force powers to make her escape easier. specially some of what she learned from Jacen.

She might be a little apprehensive about using any of those skills, but I'm sure it will come up later whistling

However, Jaina not using mando methods was just SO right!

laugh applause

I couldn't agree more!

Update soon.

Will do. Thanks and thanks for reading! grin







zonzo: 7th. *Facepalm*

There's nothing wrong with 7th. That's a great number peace

Thanks for reading!






TheOnlyJediPrincess: Wow! what a escape! Only a Solo could pull it off like that. It had me glued the whole time.

Hehe, I'm glad you found it so exciting. Jaina definitely has some of her father's awesome genes wink

Thanks so much for reading and replying happy








Sil: wow... thrilling escape. and guess security's not enough to hold Tahiri in

No wai talk_hand No one can hold back Tahiri when she wants out. Especially with Jaina's help.

Thanks so much for reading and replying! grin







corran: That was awesome! Best prison break scene ever written in my book!

Wow, thanks so much blush I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Love how Tahiri is so unstable and very tempted to turn Sith.

I'm sure it will continue to be a struggle for her. As Yoda said, "...forever will it dominate your destiny."

Jaina was her father in this chapter.

That's who she reminded me of in this too. I think Jaina has a lot in common with her father.

You could literally given Han her dialogue and it would have sounded right.

Yeah. I don't think she has his sense of humor, but they have a similar bravado.

I love how dark this story is as well, and how they all blame Jacen.

It is pretty dark and will probably get worse, and you're right exactly. We're seeing the mess Jacen left the galaxy in and all the lives around him that he destroyed even if they "survived."

Thanks so much for reading and your reply grin






Magnuskn: This was just great.

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it grin

It´s really a bummer that nobody from Del Rey is allowed to look and see how you put their output to shame. Might give them something to think about.

Thanks blush I really don't know what they'll do post-LotF. Hopefully they'll surprise us... pleasantly.

*edit* Waittasecond... does this mean that Jaya just also freed Aurra Sing?

Possibly. We don't know how many of the cell blocks Jaina opened or if Sing was in one of them. I guess we don't know worried

Thanks so much for reading and replying happy








jedi_princess: Awesome escape!

Thanks!

Jaina's just like her grandfather with the pod.

She's got some good piloting genes between Anakin Skywalker and Han Solo. I imagine Jaina could fly pretty much anything.

Can't wait to see where Jaina's taking them...

We'll get a hint in the next chapter but we'll be checking in with a couple different people for most of the next post.

Thanks for reading and replying! grin






canadianjedimama: Loved the Jaina/Tahiri "fight" scene... very nice. Very realistic. Especially the part where Tahiri says "You said make it believable" when Jaina complains about the knock to the head.

Glad you liked that. Felt like the right way to start the chapter.

Hopefully it's the only time we'll be seeing those two fight tongue

So now that they're airborne... how they going to get out of there. I doubt the old deathtrap has it in her!

That's no way to talk about Jaina talk_hand

Seriously though, she may not look like much but she's got it where it counts silly

Nice post!

Thanks! And thanks for reading happy







The_Slilent_One: Great story!

Thanks!

Can't believe it's taken me this long to start Reading it. Please add me to your pm list.

Will do. Thanks for the interest.

I'll write a proper reply later when I am at a computer, typeing on an iPod is a slow and painfull experience.

I can imagine. Thanks so much for reading and replying grin






damienraw: Great read, reminded me of some of your other sequences like leia and han against the wraithan walker or anakin and jaina chasing that bounty hunter (names escapes me) several fics back, really captures the star wars feel.

Wow, that was a long time ago! Good memory. The bounty hunter was named "Dest Ornax." I'd toyed around with the idea of bringing him back for a small role in The Lands of the Dead but decided it made more sense to use Boba Fett instead.

Han and Leia taking on the Raithian walker is one of my favorite chapters tongue

Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed this one so much.

ive enjoyed this fic so far but this chapter really raised it to a new level,

Thanks blush

Im looking forward to the next chapter, heres hoping wobbler is back soon :-)

It will be a few chapters, but I promise we'll be seeing the little guy eventually wink

you forget sometimes how good the jedi are even without their lightsabers

A Jedi is never defenseless cool

Thanks for reading and replying happy







dancinut1080: AWESOME!!

Thanks!

Fantastic escape and I loved the podracer scene.

I'm glad you liked that. It was fun to write.

Can't wait to see what you come up with next.

Probably something unexpected whistling

Thanks so much for reading grin








Telanna: Fantastic escape. Nice to see someone incorporate the pod-racing into a story. It's funny to me how rarely you see it.

I probably wouldn't have but the tracks are built throughout the prison— it was too much for me to resist tongue

You showed us some true Solo-style action.

Thanks!

Hopefully we can see some redemption for both of them.

I hope so too. Hopefully together they can find some peace.

Can't wait to see our next stop on this wild ride.

I hope you'll like it. Thanks so much for reading and replying grin







iamobiwan: That was absolutely the best prison break ever!

Thanks blush That's nice of you to say.

Those two women (especially Jaina) kicked butt!

They do cool

WOW! It was non stop action all the way out. I loved how Jaina was in so many ways (the lift, the pod) behaving just like her grandfather,

Hehe. I'm glad you enjoyed it so much, it was fun to write.

but also I love how she just was totally Mando level crazy too!

Ooo, I hope Jaina forgives you for that one silly

Intense! Great story!

Thanks so much and thanks for reading and replying! grin







Thanks again, everyone hugs

I can hear the report to Jag now, "well, she staged a jailbreak and started a prision riot...." Poor Cem has no idea what she's gotten into.

"You do have a plan... right?" Tahiri asked, absently rubbing her wrists. She bent down to grab the Iktotchi's stun baton before sprinting out of the cell after the older woman who again did not bother to answer her. "Jaina?"


After how many years with the Solos, Tahiri should know whatever "plan" there may be (and that's a stretch) is insane.

We'll give her a pass since she's been locked up.

Now, did Leia and Han get prosecuted for war crimes, or are they in hiding somewhere?

Edited to fix formatting.

carr3107: I can hear the report to Jag now, "well, she staged a jailbreak and started a prision riot...." Poor Cem has no idea what she's gotten into.

lol! You may be seeing just that in the next chapter. Nice job!

After how many years with the Solos, Tahiri should know whatever "plan" there may be (and that's a stretch) is insane.

She's been spending too much time with crazy Jacen tongue

We'll give her a pass since she's been locked up.
Now, did Leia and Han get prosecuted for war crimes, or are they in hiding somewhere?


We don't know what they're doing, but we'll find out eventually wink

Thanks for reading and replying! grin







PIPER: Nice escape Yobi,

Thanks! grin Glad you liked it.

and yeah...I can't wait to hear Cem's report to Jag.

You might get your wish very soon on that one whistling

Thanks for reading and replying happy

Thanks! happy

Jaina and Tahiri make a great team!!!

I think so too. I wanted to see them working together again peace

Can't wait for more!!

Should have more on Tuesday with some new characters wink

Dude, I'm so sorry shock I don't know how that happened. I must have lost my place when doing replies somehow doh!

I edited your reply into its proper place. Sorry about that doh!

Thanks for reading grin








New post on Tuesday. We might see Jaina and Tahiri briefly, but most of the next post will focus on Jag, and a couple new faces... mischief

It would be as if Darth Krayt came out early and decimated the Jedi Order, then turned to one of his Sith and saying "Did we get Kyle Katarn?" And his Sith just shrug and say "We were too busy to count bodies."

YodaKenobi,

I have just finished reading your fic, and I must say you have definitely got a knack for writting in the GFFA. I love your characterization of Jaina, and now Tahiri too. I actually have just started my own fic that takes place about year after yours, and throughout my reading of this one, I could see where the two could tie together nicely. What I mean by that is, I believe your take on Jaina is very close to mine. Very nicely done. Please let me know when this fic is updated further, as I look forward to reading more.

Jason
