	I know JediFalcon, I only wondered if I formed the adjective to the noun right. It looked somehow not right and I wasn't in the mood to fetch a dictionary. Thanks for your answer nonetheless.

	Thanks JSM September 11 is now upon us, In memory of the heroes of September 11th 2001. There are times heroes would rather not talk about the horrors of war. Near the end of the post, that is what Anakin Skywalker and Han Solo want, is to let the past lie without being questioned. ------------------------- Han stood by Leias bed as the doctors swarmed the other side. He looked down at Leia, who looked extremely exhausted. Its been ten hours since she went into labor and the contractions were coming closer together. He wanted to take her pain away but couldn’t. The only thing he could do was be there for her. “It looks like we’re getting close sweetheart.” Leia nodded weakly stretching out with her mind, caressing her children. She could feel their terror, she caressed each mind wrapping her presence around theirs easing the terror. She felt each respond to her touch. She felt exhilaration, //Its ok mothers here. You will be joining me very soon.// Soon their minds were on her instead of them moving into the real world. There was a blinding light that made her loose her concentration. She gasped, the medics telling her to push. “Turn down the lights.” Leia gasped, “its too bright.” ”Don’t worry, they’re eyes will adjust.” The doctor reassured her. “We got one.” Han cried in triumph looking in Leia’s eyes, “Jaina.” He said. Leia nodded weakly, “Jaina.” She repeated. One of the nurses took Jaina over to the sink to wash her off. “Looks like her brother is trying to join her now push one more time.” The doctor said. Leia pushed, feeling the pain subside after Jacen was pulled out. After nine months and ten hours of labor it was over. Not over, she thought the beginning. “Jacen.” Han said with a broad grin. “Jacen.” Leia repeated, falling against the pillow hard. Two minutes later the nurse placed one twin into each arm. Han leaned over and kissed Leia on the mouth feeling excited. Leia looked down at each baby in her arm and knew despite all the war going on, this was the best place to be. ------------------------- Anakin looked up hearing a pair of voices cries out. Tears began to fill his eyes when Han walked out with a bundle in each arm. Pride filled Hans eyes as Anakin approached him silently. He looked down at each small face wondering if Han would walk away. His fear of them changing their minds on him would rip him apart. Han looked up at Anakin. “Anakin, I have two new people I would like to introduce to you. This is Jaina and Jacen Solo your grandchildren.” Han looked down at each child with a smile. “Would you like to hold one of them?” Anakin nodded, Han handed over Jaina too him. He looked down at the brand new life in his arms, knowing he had missed so much watching Luke and Leia growing up. He missed them when Padme gave birth. He felt a tug on his heart knowing that he would try to be a big part of their lives. “How is she?” ”Leias resting, shes exhausted.” Han answered softly, not wanting to wake up Jacen. Anakin nodded as he gently rocked Jaina back and forth humming an old tune his mother used to hum to him. Han watched him with a pang knowing he would make a great father. But that time had come and gone, he lost his chance. But he had another chance to help raise the twins. Anakin looked up with truth crossing his eyes, a peace settled over him, knowing he didn’t see it or wouldn’t allow himself to see it. He was completely forgiven; he knew that Han and Leia wouldn’t let him near the twins if it weren’t true. “Han.” Han looked up with a soft smile. “Yes?” ”Thank you.” Anakin answered handing Jaina back over and taking Jacen from him. Han nodded gently rocking Jaina back and forth. “Your welcome.” Anakin walked over to a chair and sat down carefully. Han joined him with Jaina, he looked up as a nurse walked out of Leia’s room. “General Skywalker?” Anakin stood up with a nod. “Yes?” ”Leias asking for you.” Anakin nodded walking into Leias room with Jacen still in his arms. “Hey how you feeling?” Anakin asked her softly placing Jacen into her arms. “Tired but ok.” She replied with a smile looking down at the bundle in her arms. “Wheres Jaina?” ”Han has her.” Anakin replied reassuringly. Leia looked up at her father, she felt pride come from him, but fifteen minutes ago she felt anxiety from him. “You ok?” “I’m fine now, I didn’t let myself see that I was forgiven completely until Han let me hold Jaina.” Anakin replied feeling his heart beat a few skips. “It didn’t feel real until now.” Leia nodded, feeling relief sweep through her. “You and mom can be in their lives as much as you want to.” Anakin smiled looking down at his grandson, he could feel the force was strong with him. Leia yawned leaning back against the pillows, her eyes were drooping; Anakin reached over and took Jacen out of her arms. “Get some sleep, we’ll take care of the twins for a few hours.” Leia closed her eyes and passed out. Anakin leaned over giving a kiss on her forehead, “sleep well princess.” He silently walked out of the room and noted that Han was still sitting in the chair. “She’s asleep.” Han looked up and nodded. “It’s been along day.” “I bet it has.” Anakin replied sitting down beside him. “Did you want to take Jacen, while I go and make a few calls?” Anakin questioned. “Sure.” Han replied taking Jacen out of Anakin’s arms. --------------------------------------- Kay looked at Anakin in shock, she could not believe that Leia went into labor just after they bugged out. “Kay you ok?” Kay regained her composure, “I’m fine. Its just shock that Leia went into labor during a mission.” “Well I’m not too happy about it either, I’m thrilled the twins are born and in healthy condition.” Anakin answered with a frown. “So am I and I can’t wait to hold them. I could baby sit when ever I can.” Kay said with a grin. ”Yes you can, but your homework comes first.” Anakin admonished her, “unless it can’t be helped.” He added as an after thought. ”I know Ani.” Kay replied with a smile, “so do you feel any older?” Anakin shook his head chuckling, “its only as old as you feel. I do feel a little older though.” Kay smiled glancing over her shoulder as Padme walked in. “Padme, Anakin is on the holonet.” ”Oh?” Padme questioned appearing in the holonet. “Hey Ani, whats going on?” “Leia went into labor just after we made the jump.” Anakin answered. “The twins are healthy, but this has kind off got me upset. She shouldn’t have been there.” Padme frowned, “I don’t believe of all the stupidest things Mon Mothma has put Leia through this is the lowest.” ”Now Angel don’t do anything you might regret.” Anakin cautioned with a raise of his hand. “Regret? Anakin I’m surprised your taking this calmly.” Padme admonished. “Leia came close to going into labor during a battle. The Falcon could’ve been destroyed, if Han wasn’t paying attention to his flying. We could’ve lost them.” ”I know, but I’m also sure that Han would’ve jumped as soon as the coordinates were set.” Anakin reminded her. “But still the possibility was there.” Padme replied with a shudder. ”Actually that’s not true, they were shooting the Falcon to disable her, that’s it.” Anakin said to calm her. Padmes eyes turned hard. “They still could’ve been in the hands of the Empire. Either way we could’ve lost them.” ”Your right, wanna yell at the Senate you can yell for the both of us.” Anakin thought it over, “On second thought make it so loud that your yelling for the four of us.” Padme grinned as she turned to Kay, “want to help?” Kay nodded, “sure why not.” “When you are you coming back?” Padme asked in curiosity. ”Three days, that’s when Leia will be released.” Anakin answered, “I’ll see you when we get back.” ”I love you Anakin and be careful.” Kay said with a smile. ”I love you to Ani.” Padme repeated with a smile. ”I love you both and we will.” Anakin reached over, “I’ll see you when we get back.” Padme got out her comlink and dialed in Mon Mothmas number. -------------------------------- Mon Mothma walked into the room and surveyed everyone; she took one look at Padme’s expression and cringed. “Senator Skywalker you may start when you’re ready.” Padme nodded as she stepped up to the front of the room. “Chief of State, and senators, I come before you to inform you that yesterday right after Leia and Han made the jump out of Filve, Leia went into labor. She had the twins 4 hours after they landed on Ord Pardon.” She noted that Mon Mothmas eyes went wide in shock, her face paled knowing what was to come next. “Anakin Han and I are very upset that Leia went on a mission close to her due date. She shouldn’t have gone.” Kay nodded as she stayed silent at Padme’s side. “I come before you to degree for Leia compensation, she be given the normal maternity leave instead of 1 month, I would rather see she get four months off with pay.” Mon Mothma shook her head going over the scenario, “we can’t we need her.” Padme raised her eyebrow in surprise. “Oh, I could perform her duties in her place.” ”And what about yours?” Mon Mothma asked. ”Mine can wait, they’re not as extensive as the ones Leia gets, my aide can handle them.” Padme answered. Mon Mothma shook her head, “have you ever handled anything this extensive?” ”I reigned as Queen when I was fourteen on Naboo and served as Senator after my 2 terms were up.” Padme answered with a smile. ”Alright then, its settled. Four months and you take Leias place.” Mon Mothma said with a frown. Padme smiled in triumph as Mon Mothma stood up. “Anything else?” ”No that’s it.” Padme said with a smile. ”Dismissed.” Padme and Kay walked out of the room with a smile. Kay glanced at Padme, “how come no yelling?” ”Actually that was considered yelling, especially getting Leia four months off.” “Nice.” Kay answered and turned heading towards Devs apartment. ------------------------------------------- Captain Pellaeon walked into the Admirals chambers noting that there was only one piece of artwork on the table. He took a closer look and noticed it was real instead of just being a hologram. “My own piece of work, and my own failure.” Thrawn said from his chair, his red eyes boring in Pellaeon. Pellaeon nodded as he walked towards the chair. “Admiral, the shuttle with C’boath left fifteen minutes ago for Wayland.” He reported with relief. “I know Captain. I have also called you here to let you know what happened at Ord Pardon.” Thrawn said as he waved his hand, the piece of artwork slid into the floor and was replaced with a holoscreen. He turned it on to the holo report from earlier. “We now go to Ord Padron where we have learned Leia Organa Solo gave birth to the twins, according to inside resources she went into labor after making the jump out of Filve while on a mission. Manson.” “This is Manson reporting, I have learned that Han Solo and Anakin Skywalker are furious with the senate for sending Councilor Organa Solo on the mission in the first place and are calling for blood.” “I don’t understand, I highly doubt that they would be calling for blood. They might be upset but those actions are uncalled for.” Pellaeon observed. “I agree Captain, sounds like someone is setting Anakin Skywalker up for that prank that was pulled on Fey’lya a while back.” Thrawn mused. ”That would be cruel.” Pellaeon replied straightening up. ”Captain, hows the project coming along?” Thrawn asked with a raise of his blue black eyebrow. “Everything is right on schedule.” Pellaeon replied with a sharp salute. ”Excellent. As soon as the cloaking devices are in place we attack Coruscant.” ---------------------------------------- Luke stopped in front of a TV store and watched as his father came on screen, he blinked as he tried to get rid of the reporter but was unsuccessful. He quietly entered the shop a sinking feeling entering the pit of his stomach. “General Skywalker, General Skywalker, is it true that your calling for the Senates blood?” ”No it is not, now if you’ll excuse me we have the Falcon to prep.” Anakin replied giving a hard look before trying to walk away with Han. “But isn’t it also true that Jacen and Jaina will rise up and take over the Empire?” The reporter asked thrusting the mike into Anakin’s face. Han looked horrified as he made a slicing action across his throat. “I will let you know they will be trained in the lightside, they will never fall to the darkside. I will see to it never happens.” Anakin replied angrily. “But isn’t also true the legacy of Darth Vader lives on?” The reported asked insistently. “I don’t know where you’re getting these questions but they’ve got to stop. I want to try and live in peace and its not going to happen if you keep badgering me like this. I’m done playing nice, now go away.” Anakin replied with a glare. Han and Anakin turned to continue walking towards the hanger bays, but Luke could see the reporter wasn’t about to give up easy. Luke knew that if his father was pushed the right way, he could very well hurt someone. “General Skywalker one more question.” The reporter said annoyingly. Anakin and Han stopped, “don’t you people have lives besides badgering people?” ”Its my job.” The reporter retorted. “Is it true that Kay is being trained in the darkside? Will she cause another war?” The reporter asked. ”No the rumor is not true.” Anakin replied angrily. “I suggest you stop looking at my past and start looking towards the future. Things have changed, and I would not want to have it any other way then to be surrounded by my loved ones. I deeply regret everything that I have done in the past; it haunts me to this day. I would rather leave where the past lies and never want to think about it again. Now I told you take a hike.” Han smirked as he followed Anakin towards the hanger bays, “I wonder if a reporter can float with a camera in their hands.” Anakin mused. ”You mean theres an actual theory?” Han asked with a grin. “Speaking of which, did you want to test that theory out?” Han added in afterthought. The reporter turned back to the camera his face turning white, “This is manson reporting.” Luke looked towards the shop keep who was watching him with a keen interest. “Are you interested in buying a holoscreen?” Luke shook his head while slowly making his way back outside. The shop keep got on his comlink and Luke knew he was recognized. He started walking towards the hangar bays, thinking he should just get off planet. It was time to head home before things got out of hand. He hoped that Karrde was having better luck tracking the clones to where they were originating. -------------------------- -----signature----- Rogue Three in FFC Rogue Wing, Ward rm #306 Council Member of the Lightside Master to Stridarious Crimson makes my heart go Master of BYS AHBY The Impeccably Patient Drugged-Out Lunatic of the Skies I wonder whats my purpose in life

	Great post! Loved the happy scenes with the twins! Go Padmé! You tell those nasty Senators! That was a terrible idea! One little thing though: I think you want maternity or parental leave, not paternity. Paternity would be fatherhood. Great job though!

	Luke stretched out with the force and felt holes where troopers had Ysalamari on their backs. He slipped into an alley and located a pair of stairs that led to the top of the building. He climbed to the top that took him out of reach of the bubble. Luke ran to the edge and looked down, sure enough there was a guard with a Ysalamari on his back looking for him. He smiled as he ran to the other side of the building and hopped over the ledge and landed three feet down to the next roof. ----------------------------- “Report Lt.” Came Commader Bureks voice came over the comlink. “He can’t be far sir, if hes here we will find him.” Lt Yerin reported. “As soon as you have him in your custody inform me immediately.” Bureks answered. ”Yes sir.” Yerin replied as he continued on forward, Skywalker couldn’t have gone far and according to the reports he was helpless. ----------------------------------- Luke ran to the edge of the next building and looked down, he cursed inwardly. There was no building to hop over to. He looked off towards the east and noted a trooper on a bike headed his way. He looked off to the west and noted the place the sun was at, in the next few seconds the sun would be low enough to blind the trooper. He waited for fifteen seconds and ignited his saber. He took a deep breath and jumped over the side using the saber to slow his fall. Wind whistled in his ears as he hit the cement using the force to cushion his fall. He shut the lightsaber off and took off for the landing field. ------------------------- “We can’t find him sir.” Yerin reported twenty minutes later. ”What do you mean you can’t find him?” Bureks asked in anger. “He vanished somehow with no trace.” Yerin replied. ”Hes probably on the roof somewhere. I have two fighters lifting off and will do a flyby in five minutes.” Bureks said in irritation. ----------------------------- Luke quickly ran to his ship and noted that a trooper was guarding his ship. He quickly dodged to the side and peaked around the corner. The trooper hadn’t even noticed him, he thought with some relief. He quietly edged around the shuttle unhooking his blaster. He aimed at the trooper setting the blaster from stun to kill and fired into the troopers back. The trooper keeled over in death letting Luke run to the ship. He punched in the pass code and ran up the ramp as soon as it lowered. Luke ran to the back of the shuttle where Artoo and the X-wing was waiting. He noted that there was a restraining bolt on the droid, Luke readjusted the blade and quickly with a snap hiss popped off the bolt. “Artoo, get the x-wing ready.” Artoo tweetled in reply taking the x-wing off standby as Luke ran for the shuttles cockpit. -------------------------------- “Sir report from the landing field.” Lt. Ghran reported. “A trooper is found dead where he was guarding what we suspect is Skywalkers shuttle, the shuttle is reported to be climbing hard for space.” ”Call the Vengeance and have them intercept Skywalker.” Bureks commanded. He was not about to let Skywalker escape. Not on his watch. -------------------------------- Luke checked his scanners and noted that there was a Star Destroyer to intercept his course, he quickly put the controls on automatic to continue on its course. He ran for the back of the shuttle and climbed into the cockpit of the x-wing. He set the torpedoes on as he gave his scanners the once over; nothing immediate caught his attention. “Artoo are we all set?” Artoo gave an acknowledgement beep. “Good, lets get out of here.” Luke said as he felt the ship shudder under a tractor beam. He reached over and hit the button that would blow the shuttle apart. ------------------------- Captain Heran watched with satisfaction as his the tractor beam locked onto the shuttle. Now they had him. He thought with pleasure feeling his pray very close at hand. He felt shock ride through him as the ship blew apart and an x-wing shot out of the mess, “get a lock on that x-wing now.” He commanded. “Yes sir.” Henson Jeroad replied readjusting the tractor beam. He latched onto the x-wing. He smiled in satisfaction as he brought the ship in closer, the smile turned into a horrified expression realizing he had latched onto a torpedo. “Turn the tractor beams off.” He commanded just before the explosion ripped through the lower part of the destroyer. ------------------------------ Luke reached over and pulled on the hyperspace lever leaving the star destroyer behind. -------------------------------- Anakin woke up in the midst of a wonderful dream, Padme in a gold bikini he thought with a grin. He sat up hearing a pair of tiny voices crying out. He shrugged on a robe and walked out of his cabin headed towards where the twins were set up. He reached down picking up Jaina knowing that if anyone broke her heart they would have him to deal with. He gently rocked her back and forth enveloping Jaina and Jacen in a calming blanket something he learned from Obi Wan while helping him take care of the nursery one day. Jaina and Jacen stopped crying just as Leia walked out smiling at the sight. “I would’ve never known you were good with children.” She teased lightly picking up Jacen. Anakin smiled enveloping his granddaughter in his robes. “I’m full of surprises.” He said checking for wetness. “Time for a changing little one.” Anakin said walking over to the changing table. Leia smiled as she turned around holding Jacen up to her breast noting that he was hungry through the force. She glanced over her shoulder and watched Han walk out rubbing his eyes. He looked over and noted that Anakin was in the midst of changing Jaina and Leia was sitting off to the side feeding Jacen. He walked over sliding his arm around the both of them. He smiled down at his son feeling wonderment wash over him watching his son concentrate on feeding. He leaned over and kissed Leia on the forehead. Anakin looked up as he finished closing the diaper on Jaina. He rewrapped her in the blanket and lifted her up. “Why don’t you two grab some sleep and I’ll keep watch for the next couple of hours. You’ll need all the sleep you can get before we reach Coruscant.” ----------------------- Karrde watched as the lines shrank back as they entered Chazwa. An outpost planet that did its business by letting ships dock down for a day or so. Fifty ships mostly cargo and freighters exhaust ports could be seen off in the distance. He noted there were quite a few Imperial war ships as well. ”Well here we are.” Aves said conversationally from the co-pilots seat. “Can I go on record by saying this is an insane idea.” ”Perhaps.” Karrde replied looking out and catching site of a familiar ship. “Aves, we have a caller, use that new decoder program Ghent came up with, tell me whose on that one ship.” ”Yes boss.” Aves replied running the program. A few minutes later he looked up. “I believe we know him, it’s the Kerns Pride.” Karrde nodded contacting the Pride on a private channel. “Samuel Tomas Gillespie this is Talon Karrde of the Wilde Karrde, just don’t sit there and not say hello.” “Karrde, you wouldn’t mind until I find out who it is first right. I thought our override was good, but maybe not as good as we thought. We haven’t even come close to cracking yours yet.” “I thought you went into retirement?” Karrde questioned with certainty. ”I did, a nice little out crop land on an uncharted planet out of the way of trouble. Ever heard of a planet called Ukio?” ”I’ve heard of it recently. The Imperials tried taking it but was unsuccessful.” ”They came back the next day and over took the planet with the shields in tact. I left after all the surrending and bombardment I could stomach then I left, Faughn picked me up about half a parsec in front of Destroyer and half a parsec back from the troops chasing me. I got a nice view of the bombardment right up front, it was spectacular.” “You wouldn’t have any footage on you would you?” Karrde asked in curiosity. ”I do.” Gillespie answered. ”Well you could sell it, to help with the lose of your land.” Karrde answered thoughtfully. “I don’t know any buyer that would be able to afford it.” ”How about you meet me in eight days at Trogan, I do have a buyer that could afford it.” Karrde answered thinking about the line of credit Skywalker was going to set up for him. “Sounds good then.” Gillespie answered. “Karrde we have company, two Lance cruisers headed this way.” Aves said looking over his scanners. “They’re coming after us.” Gillespie said over the comm. “Actually they’re after us.” Karrde said in certainty. “Aves get out of here.” ”You got it boss.” Aves said turning the ship around and headed for the entrance point. He looked at his scanners, “They’re not changing direction.” ”They must be after Gillespie then.” Karrde mused thinking about the raid, but Gillespie was an old comrade and helping him came over business this would’ve been a good time to slip in and out but he couldn’t leave his comrade. “Latchen, Chin warm up the turbo lasers, we’re going in.” He heard acknowledgments turning his attention to Aves. “Aves, call in the rest of the group lets hold off that one Lancer.” ”You got it boss.” Aves answered as Gillespies shocked voice came over the comm.. “What are you doing?” ”Giving you a hand.” Karrde answered as the Wild Karrde began to tie up the Lancer. “Now get out of here, before that other Lancer can gets it range.” ”Karrde are you insane?” ”I’m not alone.” Karrde said as fifteen ships popped out of hyperspace and began to pound in the one ship. ”You’re not kidding, well let me on a little secret of my own. I’m not alone either.” Gillespie said looking out to view port, all through the haze of the fifteen ships pounding on the lancer frigate twenty ships broke off from their routes and converged on the second lancer. The two ships were forgotten in the middle of the fight. “So Karrde, looks like we’re not going to get much business done, shall we continue this conversation in eight days?” Eight days then, and if you run into any colleagues, invite them along I think they might be interested in what I have to say.” ”Will do, see you in eight days.” Gillespie answered taking his ship out of range and headed for his hyperspace vector. Karrde took the ship and headed, he just needed to know what to say to them. ----------------------- Kay walked into the apartment looking around her; she could’ve sworn she felt Padmes presence in here. “Padme I’m home.” “In…here…” A weak voice called out. Kay ran to the fresher to find Padme kneeling in front of the toilet. She grabbed a glass from the sink and filled it. “Are you ok?” Kay asked worriedly handing Padme the glass of water. “I think so for now.” Padme replied washing her mouth out. “So how’s school?” ”Really good.” Kay answered helping Padme up. She looked Padme over a stirring of excitement filling her, something that didn’t want to be noticed. “Padme your not by any chance?” Kay questioned in certainty. Padme met Kay’s knowing stare; she was scared. The last time she had to give up the twins and that fear had returned. --------------------------- -----signature----- Rogue Three in FFC Rogue Wing, Ward rm #306 Council Member of the Lightside Master to Stridarious Crimson makes my heart go Master of BYS AHBY The Impeccably Patient Drugged-Out Lunatic of the Skies I wonder whats my purpose in life

	Thanks Vadey --------------------------- Luke looked over Artoo’s report in disbelief, he blew out half of his fuel cells. He had enough to make it to a near by planet, but he knew it would be cutting it close. “Artoo, bring up a list of civilized planets that are within 300 parsecs.” Artoo acknowledged, and brought up their coordinates and started scrolling down a list of nearbye planets. Luke watched as Honghar scrolled up. “Wait.” Luke said thinking it over, he knew it was a risk but Leia and his mother trusted them once already, could they be trusted again? “Artoo, set the course we’re going to pay the noghri a visit.” Artoo tweetled nervously setting the coordinates, two minutes they made the jump. -------------------------------------- Kay sat down beside Padme, concern filling her eyes. She was thrilled at the prospect of having a baby sister/brother, but Padme was frightened, and she knew it had to do with what happened almost thirty years ago. “Padme, you have to tell him.” ”I know I do, I’m scared what if the courts succeed in taking the child away from us.” Padme said tears filling her eyes, “We almost lost you twice.” “And they didn’t succeed because I wanted to stay with you.” Kay answered reassuringly. “Not this time. The baby can’t decide for her or his self. They will decide what’s best for the child, and they know we won’t be able to win this time. They’ll use Anakin Luke and Leias path as proof because of who he used to be and what he did to them.” Padme replied. “After Anakin came back from Dathomir, they used Luke’s condition as proof that Anakin should not be allowed around young children, the courts forbid us to have any more children.” Tears rolled down Padme’s cheeks as sudden realization kicked in. “Kay they’ll force us to give her up.” ------------------------- Ferrier looked nervously to Thrawn, he thought he was free; his deal was done. Now hes changing the deal? “Captain, our team intercepted a message between the Kerns Pride and the Wild Karrde. In eight days they are going to meet on Trogan, you are going to get yourself invited by one of the colleagues.” ”Yes Admiral, what am I looking for?” Ferrier asked gruffly. ”You will find out what Karrde has been upto, there’s been reports that he’s been selling information to the New Republic of where our clones have been coming from. We need to have it confirmed, and also you will help place doubt into the minds of the other smuggling groups.” ”As soon as we have the evidence made up you will plant it on Karrdes ship we’re the other leaders can find it.” Thrawn continued, “if you fail me I would hate to send Rukh to pay you a visit.” Ferrier swallowed hard looking off to the side noting the body guard standing at attention. “Yes Admiral.” He said turning his attention back to Thrawn. ”Major take him back to his ship, and Rukah you will accompany them.” ”Yes Mi Lord.” The noghri mewed following the two out. Pellaeon turned his attention to Thrawn. “I don’t trust him.” ”I don’t either Captain, but Ferrier is not stupid enough to try anything.” ------------------------- Anakin walked down the ramp of the Falcon to find Padme and Kay waiting for them. He smiled giving Kay a hug then turning his attention to Padme greeting her with a kiss. Padme groaned lightly feeling Anakins warm breath on hers. Something new registered that made her pull away from him, she covered her mouth and dashed into the building. Anakin glanced over at Kay questioning who shrugged and greeted Han and Leia who had the twins in their arms. “Excuse me.” Anakin said as he dashed into the building. Kay watched them go then she turned her attention to Han and Leia. “We got a problem, and its not about Thrawn.” ”What are you talking about Kay?” Leia questioned with concern handing Jaina over to Kay. Kay looked down at Jaina then back up at Leia. “Its about Padme, she’s kind off in a delicate state and the courts will force them to give the baby up.” ------------------------------ Anakin walked into the nearest woman’s fresher, “Padme?” He called out lightly. Looking around and noting three other women were in the fresher, all three heads turned his way. “In here.” Padme replied in-between breaths. He noted that a woman was glaring at him for even entering one in the first place. He gave a sheepish smile gesturing to the stall Padme was in. “I need to attend to my wife.” She nodded in understanding walking out of the fresher. ”Padme are you ok?” Anakin questioned walking in behind her. He placed his hands on her shaking shoulders. She nodded looking up from the bowl, Anakin reached over and flushed it. “Ani, what are we going to do? We’ll be forced to give her up.” “Padme.” Anakin said looking into her eyes, he felt thrilled but he could see the fear in her eyes. “You’re?” She nodded tears filling her eyes. “Anakin, I want to raise the baby and I want to do it with you but.” Anakin placed a finger over her lips, feeling his heart squeezing in pain seeing the look in her eyes. “Padme, we’ll think of something. We will fight.” “I know.” Padme replied looking up at her husband. She noted someone walking in behind him and tapped him on the shoulder. He turned his attention to another woman in the fresher. “Sir you’re not suppose to be…” The woman began then stopped. “Boss what are you doing here?” “Padmes not feeling too good, and not a word Brenda.” Anakin finished with warning in his tone. “Yes General.” Brenda replied walking to a sink, she grabbed a paper cup filled it with water and walked back to the fresher handing the cup to Anakin who passed it onto Padme. “Padme, here wash your mouth out, then we’ll start heading back to the apartment.” Padme nodded accepting the cup from Anakin. She felt him rubbing her back, her tight muscles began to relax under his touch. She slowly stood up being drawn into Anakin’s arms. “I love you Angel.” Anakin softly said giving her a kiss on the forehead. Padme smiled briefly looking up, “I love you too Ani.” They walked out of the fresher to be greeted by their family, she noted the twins and smiled with Leia walking forward handing Jacen over. “This is Jacen Solo your grandson.” Leia said with a broad smile. Padme looked down at the new life in her arms a feeling of peace settling over her. “Leia he’s beautiful.” ”Mom, Kay gave us a short run down. We’ll do everything we can to prevent you from giving up the baby.” ------------------------------------- -----signature----- Rogue Three in FFC Rogue Wing, Ward rm #306 Council Member of the Lightside Master to Stridarious Crimson makes my heart go Master of BYS AHBY The Impeccably Patient Drugged-Out Lunatic of the Skies I wonder whats my purpose in life
