This shall be called the miracle post, because it's a miracle I am able to post it. I come home and go to use the computer and my genius brother has broken the cable modem. So I had to go to my bf's house to use his laptop. Not fun. Anyways, here it is. Hope you asll enjoy it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A blue blade flashed across Jacen's face and dismembered the Yuuzhan Vong he'd just turned to engage. With two quick swipes, Tahiri had the warrior opened from shoulder to shoulder, and was lunging for the next one.

Jacen decided he never wanted Tahiri Veila on his bad side.

Off to the left, his sister was more than holding her own, her movements swift and light, her violet blade ticking side to side deftly. She moved like a Tuskan wildcat, each step and thrust graceful and controlled, as if some part of an unconscious dance.

Her hair was whipping around her head as she spun to drive her blade into the chest of a Vong warrior with enough force to shatter the chestplate. Her hair was longer than it had been at Myrkr, and her features more serene, even in battle. There was a peace about her that Jacen would have thought impossible given the way Anakin's death coursed through her veins, but it was there, strong and unyielding.

Her swordsmanship had improved drastically. Jaina had always been good with a lightsaber, but now her thrusts and cuts were perfectly placed and timed, and Jacen was already looking forward to sparing against her sometime.

It should be a challenge, he thought as he flipped over his opponent and landed on the back of a second warrior. He swung his blade downward to cut through the warrior's exposed neck and decapitated him. Not hesitating, he dove out of the way of a strike aimed at his head, and rolled back to his feet, blade ready.

"Watch yourselves!" Jaina yelled a warning, and Jacen jerked his head up, looking for some new danger, but saw none.

It happened so fast that he barely had time to register the new presences through the Force. Laser fire streamed down from the sky and into the crowd of Yuuzhan Vong, and Jacen stumbled back, startled. He looked up in surprise to see a squadron of X-wings diving towards them, cannons blazing.

"Is that...?" Tahiri shouted at Jaina.

"Yes!" Jaina shouted back, not sounding at all surprised.

"Durron, I could kiss you!" Tahiri yelled at the lead X-wing, and, reaching out with the Force, Jacen was shocked to find Kyp Durron leading the squadron. Even more surprising was that Corran Horn was with him, as well.

"What's going on?" Jacen shouted to his sister.

"My squadron!" she shouted back, diving under the amphistaff swinging at her head. She grinned at him. "Kyp came for me!"

Kyp? Jacen thought with a start. The last time he had checked, saying that Jaina and Kyp were allies was a stretch. Now Kyp was here, apparently part of Jaina's squadron, and Jaina was glad to see him? I really have been gone along time, Jacen muttered silently.

He threw his concentration back to the warriors around him, but they were backing off wearily, as the X-wings picked off their numbers one by one with precision shots. He felt a surge of danger and whirled to find a razor bug hurling at his face. He brought up his blade to deflect it just in time, and started towards the Vong who had thrown it.

But a strange looking TIE fighter swooped in blew the warrior out of the sky. Jacen watched as the fighter dove towards his sister, and for one terrifying moment he thought the pilot was going to hit her. He reached out with the Force-only to be blocked out by his sister.

Don't.

Jacen looked to her for an explanation, only to see the fighter pull up and skim just over Jaina's head, laser fire taking out the Vong around her. His sister grinned up at the pilot, offering a salute, then broke into a run for the Jade Shadow.

Jacen glanced around and was amazed to see that there were very few Vong left standing. Reaching out to probe the alleys, he felt hundreds swarming towards them. If they were going to get away, they had to do it now.

"Tahiri!" he shouted.

The blond girl whirled to look at him without disengaging her opponent.

"Get to the ship!" Jacen ordered. "Vergere and I will take care of the rest!"

Tahiri hesitated, obviously uncertain. For a moment Jacen thought she was going to ignore his order, but then she lunged at her opponent, feinting a thrust, and kicked him hard in the chest, sending him reeling. Turning on her heel, she broke into a sprint towards the ship.

Vergere was moving towards him, fending off her attackers with sharp swings and thrusts. The remaining Vong closed in on the two of them, and Jacen felt Vergere reach for him through the Force, clasped her presence readily, and took a step backwards to brace himself.

Vergere held out her hand, taking Jacen's energy into her and redirecting it at the Vong. The first warrior went flying backwards, slamming into the others and knocking them all down. Jacen felt bone tired as Vergere released him and turned to look at him, her mouth drooping in fatigue. "Let's go," she said hoarsely.

Jacen nodded, and together they stumbled towards the Jade Shadow, leaving Kyp and his squadron to take care of the incoming army.

He dragged himself up the boarding ramp and slammed his hand down on the tickle pad, and the door slid closed behind them with a loud whoosh. Jacen slid to the ground, panting hard, and saw Vergere do the same.

In the cockpit he could hear Jaina and Tahiri scrambling to get the ship ready for liftoff. "Twin Suns," Jaina called, and Jacen gathered she was using the comm. "This is Lead. I've got incoming skips. Forget the warriors and start blowing some coral!"

Kyp Durron's distinctive voice came back, "It would be our pleasure, Great One."

The Shadow lurched as Jaina lifted off the ground and Jacen half-walked, half-crawled towards the cockpit. Jaina was in the pilot's seat, of course, and Tahiri was flipping switches like crazy from her seat as copilot. The ship shook as skip fire hit it, bouncing off the shields, and Jaina looked back at her brother.

"Strap in," she ordered. "Vergere, you, too. This is going to be a bumpy ride."

The engines hummed, vibrating with power. Jacen sensed the flow through the engines, the pulse through the ship. Tahiri activated the repulsorlifts and the ship began to rise into the air.

Jacen had barely gotten his crash webbing buckled when Jaina pointed the nose skyward and shoved the throttled forward, slamming him back into his seat.

As the ship shook under the fire hitting the shields, Jacen was dimly aware that Jaina was pushing the ship towards the atmosphere at a veritcal angle, and he realized just how desperate the situation outside of the ship must have been getting if she was risking the kickback of slamming into the atmosphere too quickly.

Jacen glanced at Vergere, who had strapped herself into the seat beside him. "How we doing out there?"

Vergere's eyes were grim. "They have already launched coralskippers to engage us. And stronger firepower is on the way. If we are to escape alive, we must break into hyperspace soon. Very soon."

"Jaina will get us out of here," Jacen said confidently. He only hoped that flying an X-wing for so long had not hindered her ability to maneuver in a the much larger Shadow. Closing his eyes, he let the Force flow through him and focused on the battle outside.

The Twin Suns pilots were flying cover for the Shadow, and Jacen was all but amazed at the skill with which they were evading Yuuzhan Vong fire. The lead shield trio, which consisted of Kyp and Corran along with a non-Jedi, was causing some serious damage. While Kyp and Corran's shots were being absorbed by the voids, the third pilot, the one flying in the TIE, was making direct hits.

He's good, Jacen thought. I wonder who he is.

One of the pilots took heavy fire and struggled to maintain consciousness, and Jacen heard Jaina curse from the cockpit. Jacen wasn't surprised to realize that she had opened herself up to them, monitoring their status.

The Shadow jerked and Jacen opened his eyes to see that they had broken clear of Coruscant. Instead of jumping immediately into hyperspace, Jaina reversed throttle and kicked the etheric rudder right, causing Jacen to lurch forward against his crash webbing.

"Tahiri, set us some coordinates," Jaina barked out. "Feed them to Kyp's X-wing."

Without waiting for Tahiri to acknowledge her orders, Jaina threw the Shadow into a snap roll, jolting Jacen around in his seat, then pumped it full throttle and kicked the rudder back to the left, then hard right, spinning the ship in a brutal turn.

Jaina straightened out with a sharp turn that left Jacen dizzy. The Shadow vectored away from an oncoming skip at a sharp angle, and at single engine full throttle, pressing Jacen back in his seat, his teeth clenched against the g's.

"Hold on!" Jaina warned, and pulled back on the stick, lifting the Jade Shadow's nose, then shoving it forward, dropping into a sudden inverted loop. She broke off the circle halfway through with a tight snap roll, and kicked into a fishtail, then into a barrel roll, cannons blazing.

Jacen heard Tahiri give a little yell of excitement, and gathered that Jaina was scoring hits.

"Their reinforcements are coming," Vergere warned evenly. "We can not wait any longer, Jaina Solo."

If Jaina heard her, she didn't show it. Jacen opened his mouth to suggest that they make the jump, when the comm-unit crackled to life with a burst of static.

"Jade Shadow, this is Twin Suns Two," the familiar voice of Kyp Durron filled the ship. "We've got those coordinates and we're ready to jump. Can we go home now?"

"No," Jaina replied simply, hitting the forward attitude adjustment jets, lifting the nose of the Shadow and pumping the throttle. She kicked the rudder hard, bringing the ship about to starboard to face an incoming skip.

Two well placed shots hit the void, but the third, fired so quickly after that it wasn't until later that Jacen realized it had not been part of her first volley, slammed into the skip, reducing it to space dust.

"Now we can go," Jaina said with a smirk.

Kyp laughed. "Great shot, Goddess!"

"Thank you, Kyp," Jaina said. "Twin Suns, thanks for the assist. You all get an extra hour of sleep for this!"

"Only an hour?" a mechanical voice grunted.

Jaina laughed. "We'll see, Piggy. We'll see. See you all back at base." She paused, and Jacen felt a surge of warmth well up in his sister, and he didn't notice the way her voice softened. "And Colonel Fel? It's good to have you home."

"What's she talking about?" one of the pilots stage-whispered. "We're not home- ooooohhh."

Jaina shook her head. "Twin Suns Leader out."

She hit a button and the space around them faded as they jumped into hyperspace.

Checking the controls once more to be sure they were on course for Mon Calamari, Jaina leapt from her seat and threw herself into her brother's waiting arms.

Jacen clung to her as if he would never let go, and she wrapped her slender arms around his waist, squeezing him fiercely. Tears spilled down her cheeks and onto his dirty jumpsuit. All of Jaina's barriers, all of her strength, crumbled and she let out a relieved sob, burying her face in his shoulder.

She felt Jacen brush her with a soothing touch of the Force, and she opened herself up to him, letting his joy be her joy, his pain be her pain. She felt the agony of the torture he had been through, the endless torment dealt at the hands of the Yuuzhan Vong, but more than anything, she felt his pain at their separation. Jacen had felt as incomplete those past few months as she had, and feeling her presence was again was like being able to see again after going blind.

It was one of the most wonderful moments in Jaina's life, but it was also one of the saddest. Because although one of her brothers had returned to her from death, the other never would. Standing there, holding Jacen in her arms, it broke Jaina's heart to know that there could never be a reunion with Anakin.

A whisper of the Force touched her again, but this time Jaina pulled back, glaring at her twin. "I'm still mad at you, you know," she said coolly.

Jacen nodded. "I know," he replied, his eyes not quite meeting hers.

He really does know, a voice in Jaina's head told her. Her expression softened and she touched his cheek gently. "I still love you, though."

He flashed her a lopsided smile she knew he meant to be cocky, but to her it just looked relieved. "I know."

Jaina hugged him again, closing her eyes and just feeling him beside her. When they drew apart, Jacen glanced over his shoulder at the cabin door where Tahiri had gone to lay down. "I'll be back," he said. "I just want to speak to Tahiri for a minute."

Jaina nodded. She had already surmised as much from the way he had watched the younger girl retreat from the cockpit once they'd reached hyperspace. "Good idea."

Jacen leaned in and kissed her on the cheek, and this time she got a good whiff of him and wrinkled her nose in disgust. "Hop in the 'fresher while you're back there. I've been around rontos that smelled better than you."

Jacen chuckled, and the deep, rich sound warmed Jaina's heart. "Well, I have been a prisoner for like six months, Jaya. What did you expect?"

Jaina took a moment to look at him, really look at him. His brown hair had grown long and unruly, and his face was stained with dirt and grime. He had a slight beard on his face, and Jaina wondered whether he would shave it off once they got home. He looked good with the facial hair, and she was surprised he had never tried to grow any before.

Jacen caught her looking at him and raised an eyebrow. Covering quickly, Jaina rolled her eyes. "Go take a shower."

Jacen grinned. "As you wish, Oh Great and Glorious One."

"Glorious One?" Jaina snorted. "Don't let Piggy hear that one or Kyp will never let me live it down."

Jacen laughed again, and Jaina watched him disappear into the cabin. Feeling eyes on her, she turned back to the cockpit. For a long moment she and Vergere regarded each other appraisingly, then Jaina slid back into the pilot's seat and said evenly, "Sorry I tried to kill you at Myrkr."

Vergere's gaze flickered across her face, then she nodded. "It is forgotten."

Jaina raised an eyebrow. "How about forgiven?"

A small smile tugged at the corner of Vergere's beaked mouth. "That, as well."

Although she did her best not to show it, Jaina was relieved. It was bad enough having used the dark side at all, much less against a fellow Jedi.

"That was lifetime ago," Vergere said quietly, picking up on her thoughts.

Jaina bit her lip, then decided to throw aside diplomacy and manners. "How did you end up with the Yuuzhan Vong anyway?"

"I will explain everything when we meet with your Master Skywalker," Vergere replied. "But since you have saved my life, I will give you the answer to that which you have asked."

In other words, you'll tell me as long as I don't ask you anymore questions until you talk to Uncle Luke, Jaina translated. She nodded her agreement.

"Many decades ago, I was a Jedi Knight," Vergere began softly. "Anakin Skywalker was only a very young apprentice at the time."

Wow, Jaina thought. How old are you?

Vergere's lips twisted in amusement. "I was dispatched to Gardaji Rift to investigate rumors of alien visitors near the planet Zonama Sekot." She gave Jaina a meaningful look. "The aliens proved to be an advance strike force for the Yuuzhan Vong."

Jaina's eyes widened. The Yuuzhan Vong had been poking their noses around in the galaxy for that long and no one had ever known?

"The Sekotans were a race with bio-organic technology," Vergere went on. "When they refused to surrender the secrets of their technology to the Yuuzhan Vong, the Yuuzhan Vong attacked."

Just like the Yuuzhan Vong, Jaina shook her head in disgust. What they can't conquer they destroy.

A small voice in the back of her head wondered if that was the fate awaiting the Jedi.

"In exchange for sparing the Sekotans, I surrendered myself to the Yuuzhan Vong," Vergere said calmly, and Jaina found new respect for the feathered Jedi. "At first they took a... clinical interest in me."

Something in Vergere's tone warned off any questions regarding that experience, and Jaina couldn't help but shiver at the idea of the bird-woman submitting herself to their tortures.

"Over the years, I became sort of an exotic pet," Vergere said, her voice betraying nothing. "I hid my Jedi abilities from them and served them well, until at last I was made Tsavong Lah's advisor." She glanced at Jaina when she said the warmaster's name, but Jaina did not react, and so she concluded. "At last I was ready to make my move."

Jaina tilted her head. "What move is that?" she asked evenly.

"I have trained your brother in the Old Ways of the Force," Vergere replied. "And I have taught him all that I know about the Yuuzhan Vong." She smiled that unnerving birdlike smile. "Now I must share what I have learned with your Master Skywalker."

"Why?" Jaina asked.

Vergere's eyes shone brightly. "Because I am going to join this New Jedi Order," she said. "And together we shall defeat the Yuuzhan Vong once and for all."

Oooh, loooook, another post grin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"What do you want?" Tahiri rasped out, not turning to look at Jacen.

She had come to the cabin to be alone, and to cry, which Jacen had inadvertently walked in on.

She had been fine one minute, thinking how amazing it was that Twin Suns Sqaudron had shown up to rescue them, and then Jacen had said something that caused her to look at him, and for a split second she had seen Anakin in his features.

It had just been too much, so she all but run from the cockpit, muttering that she was tired. She'd wanted to hide her tears-hell, she'd wanted to hide period. But apparently Jacen Solo had other ideas.

Wordlessly, he placed something cool and round in her hand. She looked down to see the familiar hilt of Anakin's lightsaber. Her eyes traced over the metallic handle, memorizing every detail all over again.

She looked up at Jacen inquisitively, her eyes searching his. "He would want you to have it," Jacen said quietly. Tahiri knew he was right.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she ran her fingers over the only thing of Anakin's she had left. She remembered when he built the weapon. They had been students at the Jedi Academy together and she had been the first person he showed it to. He had waited to turn it on until she was with him, and Tahiri had been touched that he had included her in such a personal moment. The pride in his eyes when he ignited the purple blade had never died out.

From that day forth, where Anakin went, his lightsaber went. It had been his most prized posession, and he carried it with him everywhere.

For Tahiri, being able to carry his blade beside her own meant she could carry another piece of Anakin with her, this one something she could touch and hold.

"Thank you," she whispered to Jacen.

"It's what he would want," Jacen replied hoarsely.

Tahiri turned to look at him, and took a moment to just study him, this brother of Anakin's. They had the same roguishly handsome features, but Jacen's face was older, more mature in ways that went beyond his age. While Anakin's strength had been physical, Jacen's was more philisophical.

Looking into his eyes, though, Tahiri saw weakness.

It was uncertainty, doubt. Jaina's accusations back on Myrkr had stayed with him apparently, and he was doubting his retreat, doubting his decision to put the mission before Anakin.

It was Anakin who made that decision, not you, Tahiri wanted to say, but she could not bring herself to say it. Although she did not blame Jacen in any way, Tahiri knew that Jacen had made the decision in the end.

"You did all you could, Jacen," she said quietly. "There was nothing anyone could have done."

"Are you positive about that?" Jacen muttered, more to himself than to her.

"Yes," Tahiri said firmly. "I am. Jacen, Anakin was dying. Even I knew that. You couldn't do anything to help him."

"I know," Jacen said, hesitated as if he wanted to say more.

Sensing where his thoughts were headed, Tahiri added, "Neither could Jaina."

Jacen didn't reply.

Tahiri knew what he needed to hear, what no one had said to him since the retreat, what he had tried to tell himself since Anakin's death. And she found that she could say it, could mean it, without any effort. "You did the right thing."

Jacen looked up at her, his eyes searching. After a long moment, he looked away. "Jaina doesn't think so."

"Jaina is..." Tahiri looked for the right word. "Jaina," she concluded, unable to find any word suitable. "And Anakin is..." She swallowed hard, using the Force to keep her composure. "Was her little brother. She's not going to be rational when it comes to him."

"No," Jacen agreed quietly. "She never was." He sighed, and lowered his head. "She's right, though. I left him."

"He told you to," Tahiri said. "You had no choice."

"Didn't I?" Jacen retorted softly. "Jaina would have stayed."

"Yes," Tahiri agreed. "She would have. And then she would be dead, too, and the voxyn queen would still be alive. You did the only thing that you could do, Jacen. You gave Anakin's death purpose."

Jacen stared at the floor, his brow furrowed in deep thought. Tahiri gave him a moment to gather himself together. When he looked up at her, she saw acceptance there.

"You did the right thing," Tahiri repeated, touching his arm. "You didn't let Anakin die in vain. You finished his last mission for him."

Jacen let out a long sigh. He looked down at Tahiri curiously, biting his lip. Through the Force she could sense that he was apprehensive about something, but before she could search for what, he did the most surprising thing in the galaxy.

He kissed her.

It was a soft, simple kiss that only lasted a moment, but it was a kiss with purpose, with meaning.

Jacen drew away, his cheeks red. "There," he said quietly. "Now I've finished his last mission." He gave her a weak smile, then slipped out of the cabin, leaving Tahiri stunned.

"No, for that you have to come back."

"Soon, then."


"Anakin," Tahiri breathed, touching a hand to her lips. You promised me that kiss, dummy. I should have known you would deliver somehow, even if it was through your brother.

In some ways that kiss would be more memorable than even the first kiss she had shared with Anakin, the one that had shown her his true feelings for her.

This final kiss from Anakin Solo was for more than to fulfill a promise, it was to show her that his love for her was unending, and that not even death could take that away.

And then the tears came, unbearable to hold them back any longer, and Tahiri Veila cried herself to sleep.
