	Oh my God! That was amazing!!!!!!!!! I was crying the whole post ) It was good to see Jaina finally deal with her anger towards Jacen and her pain over Anakin. Can we expect Jaina to talk to her twin about all that at some point? Hmmm? -----signature----- "Pain drowns most people. I just swim in it."~Tahiri Veila in RS

	Jacen Solo had fallen in love with the woman in front of him the day they first met at the Jedi Academy on Yavin Four, all those years ago. Back then he had thought she was only a Dathmori warrior, but he had later learned that she was a Hapan princess. Now she was Queen Mother of the Hapes Consortium. "Wow," Jacen murmured, stunned. "A lot's happened while I was gone." "Yes," Tenel Ka agreed. "Much has changed." She eyed their intertwined hands. "But some things have not." Jacen grinned. "Yeah, well, I wanted to tell you on Myrkr, when you leaned in to kiss me, but Vergere got in the way." Tenel Ka nodded. "I did not understand that then. But I do now." She looked up at him, her cool gray eyes calm. "She was trying to lessen the pain your death would inflict on us both." Jacen cocked his head thoughtfully. "I suppose so." A smirk tugged at his lips. "But somehow I think that kiss might have helped get me through that experience easier." His expression grew serious. "It was thinking about you that got me through at all." Tenel Ka's eyes shimmered brightly. "I am glad of that, my friend." "I thought we were more than friends?" Jacen asked with a smile. Tenel Ka nodded. "You thought correctly." She raised an eyebrow. "What would you like me to call you?" "How about just Jacen?" Jacen laughed. "And I'll just call you Tenel Ka." "It is nice to be addressed by my name instead of Queen Mother," Tenel Ka said, her voice wistful. Jacen studied her face for a long moment, her creamy skin framed by her cinnamon gold mane, her gray eyes the color of liquid steel. "You miss the Jedi, don't you?" he asked. "That is a fact," Tenel Ka agreed. "I took up my mother's crown to keep my grandmother from taking the throne, and to save your sister from my grandmother's ploys, but I did not do it willingly." Jacen bit his lip. "This is going to make things hard, isn't it?" he asked. "For us, I mean. With you being the Queen Mother of Hapes, and me being a Jedi, the son of Leia Organa Solo, no less." "My grandmother thought your sister was good enough for the royal line," Tenel Ka observed grimly. "But I think you are right, this will be a challenging time for us." She looked at him, her gaze softer than Jacen had ever seen it. "But I do not wish to rule forever, Jacen. In time my father will remarry, and I will step down as Queen Mother. Perhaps they will have a daughter, and she may rule after her mother." "It doesn't bother you?" Jacen asked, frowning. "The thought of your father marrying someone else so soon?" He could not imagine how upset he would be if it was his father remarrying. "I know that my father loved my mother," Tenel Ka said softly. "That is not a common occurrence in the Hapan royal family. My father may choose another wife, and another woman to produce his children, but my father's heart will always belong to Tenneniel Djo." Jacen squeezed her hand. "Like my heart will always belong to you." Tenel Ka smiled slightly, and Jacen leaned down to kiss her even as she tilted her head upward towards him. Their lips were just meeting when a voice interrupted. "It's certainly about time." Jacen jerked up in surprise, his eyes going wide. "Anakin?!" he yelped, falling off of the bench. His brother stepped out from behind the bushes, shimmering and glowing with the power of the Force. He wore sand colored Jedi robes that set off his dark hair, and his familiar smile lit his handsome face. "Hello, Jacen." He smiled at Tenel Ka. "Hello, Tenel Ka." "Anakin," Tenel Ka said softly. "I don't have much time left," Anakin said, smiling apologetically. "I used most of my time talking to Jaina." Jacen was relieved to hear that. He could think of nothing better for Jaina than to see Anakin's spirit. If anyone could get through to her, it would their brother. "That's alright," he assured him. A pause fell over them as Jacen struggled to think of what to say. There were so many things that he could say, so many things he wanted to say, but none of them seemed good enough. What do you say to your little brother's ghost? he asked himself. There was really only one thing to say. "I'm sorry, Anakin," Jacen said hoarsely. "I'm sorry for all the fighting we did, and for not giving you the credit you deserved." Anakin waved a hand dismissively. "All brothers argue, Jacen. It's natural." Jacen raised an eyebrow. "Do all brothers argue with lightsabers?" Anakin smiled. "I don't suppose so, no." He eyed Jacen curiously. "For a minute there I was worried you were going to try and apologize for Myrkr." Jacen shook his head, swallowing down the grief and pain that welled up in him whenever he thought of the worldship where his brother had fallen. "No. I made the right choice. I know that." Anakin's smile looked relieved. "I'm glad. That's why I came." Jacen frowned, confused, and Anakin noticed. "I needed to tell you for myself that you did the right thing. You did exactly what I needed for you to do. You got rid of the queen, you survived, and you kept Jaina from getting herself killed." Jacen's face fell at the mention of his twin. "Jaina doesn't see it that way. She's pretty mad." "Talk to her again sometime," Anakin said. "I think you may be pleasantly surprised." Before Jacen could ask what he meant by that, Anakin began to dissolve. A lump rose up in Jacen's throat, a sob barely kept down by the strength of the Force. There is no death, he repeated the line from the Jedi Code to himself. There is the Force. "I am always watching, Jacen," Anakin said. "Even though I can't reply, I can always hear you. Remember that." Jacen nodded. "Goodbye, Anakin." He waited until his brother was gone, and then let the tears slid down his cheek. Tenel Ka slid her arm around his waist and he leaned against her, letting her strength flow into him. "You will see him again one day, Jacen," she whispered, her own voice tight with emotion. "He is part of the Force now, back where life itself comes from. He is at peace." Jacen nodded. "I know." He smiled weakly at her. "And now so am I." -----signature----- "Fight until you can fight no longer, then exhaust the enemy chasing you, and turn and fight some more." -Leia Solo in SbS "Love can ignite the stars..." -RotS novelization "Even the stars die out, Anakin Skywalker..." -RotS novelization

	This story is really good! Keep on posting! Never ever make Luke Skywalker angry. He doesn't need the dark side to scare you senseless. He's got something much scarier. What's that? Mara Jade. I love that scene! -----signature----- Handmaiden Irelynné, Handmaiden of the Crest All links to stories in bio!
