	The next book after Crisis at Crystal Reef. ------------------------------------------------------ Jaina clutched her stomach as a wave of dizziness passed over her. Then a terrible headache started, joined with nausea. She tried to use the Force to dim the pain long enough to figure out what was going on, but nothing happened. Concentrate, she told herself; still nothing. She decided to go to the medical bay, although she couldn't figure out what could possibly be wrong with her. She passed her brothers room and paused, wondering if she should talk to him first. Then she heard a crash from one of the cages in his room, and a feeling of wrong in the air. She knocked once, then managed to push the door open. Her twin brother, Jacen, lay shaking on the floor. "What's going on?" he groaned. Apparently, she wasn't the only one affected by the strange wave of pains. "I don't know," she breathed. "I have a terrible headache, and I'm dizzy." She helped him up. "Me, too." He slowly followed her to the door. They both used the wall for support. When they made it out into the corridor, they were met by many more Jedi staggering toward the Grand Audience Chamber. With the flock was Tenel Ka and Lowbacca. The warrior girl stood up straight, but her face was white and pained. The Wookie drooped like a dying plant. Not far behind them came Raynar and Lusa. "Do you know what is going on?" Jacen asked them in a labored voice. Raynar just looked on pale and dazed. The centauriform girl stamped her hoof feebly. Tenel Ka shook her head slowly. Lowie barked a quiet "no." Zekk came up to Jaina and the group waiting beside Jacen's room. "Master Skywalker called a meeting." He was as solemn as ever, but his forehead was covered with sweat and his naturally pale face was whiter than the snow-covered world of Hoth. The young Jedi knights followed him up the stairs and took their seats. Anakin and Tahiri found their friend Sannah and sat in a row in front of the older Jedi. For once, Tahiri was completely silent. The orphan girl from Tatooine had been raised by the Sand People and had no one her own age to talk to for many years. Now she had Anakin and Sannah. Sannah was a Melodie from Yavin 8 and her time on Yavin 4 was almost over. When Melodies turn 12, they must change into adults, and they must be in the waters to transform. Master Skywalker did not have to raise his hands to quiet the chatter as usual. All his students where quiet but not calm. He could feel the sickening waves too, but he also felt their pain and fear. "I do not know exactly what is causing this...illness, or what it is. I have contacted the New Republic and apparently not everyone is affected." He tried to keep his voice steady, calm, strong. "Only those especially sensitive to the Force seem to be affected. There is no medical basis for this, so the medical droids and bacta tanks can't help." He again had to compose his voice. "Until we know what is happening, nothing can be done. All classes will be canceled. You are free to stay in your rooms or if it distracts you from the pain, you can wonder about outside, but stay with in sight of the Great Temple. The Force is with us, we will overcome this." The Jedi Master stepped away. "Ah. Aha," Tenel Ka managed to say. "We must solve this mystery." "I'm all for that," Jacen said. "But right now, I think I need to rest." Jaina just nodded. She was far away...she was on a desert planet. She was walking; there was something strange in the distance, it was a... "Jaina? Jaina! Are you okay?" Zekk asked. He seemed the least afflicted by the strange sickness. "Jaina..." Jacen struggled to say. "I'm fine...I guess I was dreaming. I think I'll rest, too." "Yes, we can all rest then meet here in...two standard hours?" Lusa suggested. She also seemed less affected. They were all too weary to think of a better plan.

	I just PM'd my submission, Wes. Thanks! Thanks, EmilieDarklighter! I hope you enjoy the rest of the story. And here's more. ______________________________________________________ Anakin and Sannah helped Tahiri struggle to Master Skywalker's chambers. "I'll...be...okay...now," Tahiri said. They let go and knocked softly. Luke appeared at the door. Anakin, who barely had a headache, spoke up first. "Sannah needs to go home; it's almost her time to change. I know it's dangerous, but we helped Lyric all that time ago. So, can we go too?" I sound like Tahiri, he thought. "Will you be strong enough?" Master Skywalker asked. Yavin 8 was a dangerous place for the healthy. "I barely even feel it. And we're both older now, plus we are not looking for the key to the golden globe this time." He smiled. The last time he and Tahiri went to Yavin 8, they had been on two missions. One, to help protect their friend Lyric during her change, and two, to find out what the writing in the Palace of the Woolamanders meant. They had to free the sprits of the Massasi children trapped in the golden globe. "Okay," Luke gave in. "It just so happens, Peckhum is making a delivery in about two hours; is that soon enough?" he asked Sannah. "Oh, yes," she answered with a sad look in her eyes; she was hoping for a bit longer to say goodbye to everyone. Once outside Master Skywalker's room, Tahiri collapsed. Anakin and Sannah picked her up and shook her awake. Anakin knew she wasn't strong enough to make this journey, but he also knew she wouldn't stay behind. "Tahiri, I know you won't hear it, but-" "Oh no, Anakin Solo, you are not leaving me here! I'll be fine." As if to disagree with her, her legs went out from underneath her. Sannah barely caught her. Anakin didn't feel like arguing; besides, he knew it would go nowhere.

	Thanks, MJSLSBS! Here's more. ______________________________________________________ "I'll stay awhile, if that's okay with you," Zekk said. "You should rest too, but I'd like the company. Although, I'm not sure I'm feeling very talkative..." Speech was hard for her. It hurt in several different places. This any better? Y-Yes, this doesn't hurt. I wonder why you and Lusa seem less affected? Anakin, too; he seemed fine. I don't know, I can't think of anything I have in common with your brother that I don't have with you. How about Lusa? I don't think she and Anakin have anything in common. Nope, I can't find a connection. What were you dreaming earlier? Zekk asked. She looked up at the ceiling. I'm not sure. Suddenly I wasn't in the Grand Audience Chamber anymore; I was in a desert...walking. I saw something on the horizon, but I don't know what. It's the key to whatever is going on, I know it is. She turned and faced him. Too weird? He leaned forward and kissed her forehead. How about I let you sleep so you can finish the dream and solve this whole mess? Okay, but puzzles are Anakin's department.

	Awww, that Jaina and Zekk scene was so cute! I absolutely loved it. Interesting fic so far. I just found it. Nice to see something post CaCR. Anyway, what's going on with all the Force-sensatives in the galaxy? This is weird. And what does Jaina's dream have to do with it? Anyway, can't wait to read more! -----signature----- She found herself smiling. There was nothing wrong with a man who cared about animals, nothing at all, even if he wiped out cities.

	Thanks, guys! But you might want to add in qotation marks in that last post. I put the rest of their conversation in italics because they were communicating through the Force, to make it seem like a more personal conversation between them. Sorry, I should've been more clear about that. Here's a little more. ______________________________________________________ Zekk walked outside by the river, thinking. He knew he should be thinking about the current crisis, but his mind wandering to the question Master Skywalker had asked him, "What next?" It was a familiar question; he had asked himself that a million times. He felt like going somewhere, getting out and exploring. He had already tried that though; it led him here. There were lots of ways to serve the New Republic; some went out and patrolled borders, or became ambassadors. With the Empire reduced to a few ships scattered around where the Core worlds would let them hide, there was no one to fight. His mind wandered to Jaina. She was 16 now, the same age he was when he went to the dark side. He wasn't much older, so what were they going to do?

	Oh. Zekk introspective. Nice. Wonder what they are going to do... Anyway, the part was short but sweet and I can't wait to read more. But you might want to add in qotation marks in that last post. Otherwise exellent. Daniel, you are really one to talk. Um, Typo? I've seen other authors do the italics thing to symbolize that sort of talking. I understood it perfectly. -----signature----- She found herself smiling. There was nothing wrong with a man who cared about animals, nothing at all, even if he wiped out cities.

	Thanks, Enelya_Sol! The next scene awaits. ______________________________________________________ Jaina was walking on the same planet as before, but this time she was with Jacen. She felt small in the huge deserted place; old ruins were everywhere. Jacen must have felt the same way, because he took her hand. She couldn't see the warrior girl or their Wookie friend, but she sensed that they were there. She looked toward the setting sun, and there it was. A huge pillar, they were far from it, but she could tell it was huge. Then, suddenly they were right next to it, and she saw four strange markings, and then she woke up. All of her symptoms had stopped, except the headache. She checked the chronometer; she had half an hour until she had to meet the others. She stepped into the refresher unit and quickly showered. Then she picked out a clean brown flightsuit. She had just brushed her brown hair off her shoulders when she heard a soft knock at her. It was her brother, her little brother. Come in. She didn't feel like testing her voice just yet. The door slid open, and Anakin walked in. He was more like her than Jacen was, but both twins had to admit: Anakin was the weird one, he was also the genius. What's on your mind, little brother? "You can talk regularly, now; everyone is better. Only the headache is left," he said quietly. He walked up and gave her a hug. This surprised her; he hadn't hugged her in a long time. "I'm leaving. It's time for Sannah's changing. Write down the marks so I can see them." "Huh?" What was he talking about? Jaina wondered. "The marks, on the pillar. When Tahiri and I were trying to break the curse of the golden globe, it helped when we wrote them down." "Oh...how did you-okay." Better not to ask, she thought. She wrote down the marks carefully, using a Jedi method of recall. "There." "Umm-hmm," he said. "Use the computer; search for them. You might find something." He paused. "Maybe it will be like the golden globe. Anyway, goodbye. I'll see you when you get back, Jaya." He hadn't used that name for her in so long; it seemed like forever. "Anakin, you're the one who's leaving, silly. I'm not going anywhere," she said, puzzled; he was definitely the weird one. "Oh, that's right, but yes, you will. Give it some time." And he was gone. She paced around her room for a moment, then decided to head to the Grand Audience Chamber. She didn't have to walk slowly or hold the wall, but her head was a nagging reminder that something wasn't right. When she entered the large room, she spotted Zekk and Tenel Ka waiting. "Hi," she said, smiling. "Greetings." Tenel Ka nodded, backing away casually. A smile tugged at her lips. She knew Zekk and Jaina would want to talk...alone. "You seem better," Zekk said with a smile. Just then, Lusa trotted up with Raynar beside her. "I'm glad this thing seems to have passed," Raynar said as brightly as his rainbow robes. "Except for the headache," he added, rubbing his temples. "Where is Jacen?" Lusa asked. "And Lowie? This is the time we agreed on." Tenel Ka rejoined the group. Zekk shrugged. "Maybe they over slept." "Or are catching a loose pet," Tenel Ka suggested. Raynar and Jaina remembered the crystal snake incidents. "Or saying goodbye..." Jaina murmured. "Well, Jacen could be saying bye to Anakin. He came to tell me it's Sannah's time." "Ah, the shut-down sequence was restful. Even though I suffered none of your mysterious ill effects," Em Teedee chattered, bobbing along with his microjets. Lowie growled a greeting. Jacen came up behind his sister and surprised her with a poke in the back. Em Teedee had distracted her. "Feeling better?" she asked. "Yeah, Anakin hugged me and called me Jasa," Jacen whispered, making a funny face of surprise. She nodded, but didn't have time to answer. "Anyone have any ideas?" Lusa asked. "Jaina the mystic, did you finish your dream?" Zekk asked playfully. "I think so, Jasa-uh, Jacen, did you have any dreams?" She hadn't meant to call him that. "Yeah, I did Jaya." He thought she had been teasing him. Tenel Ka raised an eyebrow at the nicknames. "We were walking where there was a lot of sand and a big pillar. It was just you and me, but I could feel Tenel Ka and Lowie were nearby." "I had the same one. Anakin said to write down these-" She handed them to Lusa, and they were passed around the small circle of friends. "He also said to check the computers for something about them." "I saw a totally different set," Jacen said. He quickly jotted them down next to Jaina's. "And what are all my finest young Jedi doing?" "Uncle Luke!" the twins exclaimed. "Ah. Aha," Tenel Ka said. "And who is accompanying you?" " This is Liya. She's a new addition. One of my former students, Kyp, discovered she had great talent with the Force. She has already learned very much." The girl nodded her head in greeting. She looked about Jaina's age. "We're going to solve the mystery of that weird wave of pain," Jacen said. "And lasting headaches," Raynar put in, still rubbing his temples. Raynar and Jacen could be quite the comedy team occasionally. Luke nodded. He had every confidence that they would. It was just the sort of thing he used to do with Leia, Han, Chewie, and Lando.

	No problem! Okay, so new girl. Good or bad? Hopefully good. And why wasn't Zekk in the twins' dream? Odd. But the scene between Jaina and Anakin was sweet, if not a bit odd. Can't wait to read more. -----signature----- She found herself smiling. There was nothing wrong with a man who cared about animals, nothing at all, even if he wiped out cities.

	Here's more! ______________________________________________________ Raabakyysh had decided it was now or never. If she still carried the plague now, she would always. If only there was some way to test it without killing. She decided to go to Coruscant and tell the New Republic exactly who she was and what danger she posed. They could do tests or find someway to make sure that no one else died. She dreamt that Lowbacca would be on a sandy outer-rim planet soon, and she intended to be there, if she could. ______________________________________________________ Sorry it's so short. More to come later, I promise!

	After the young Jedi Knights had showed the new girl around and left her in her quarters, they went back to the subject of a plan. "Master Lowbacca and I ran the checks you requested, Mistress Jaina. We discovered that they are an ancient form of writing called Ilonigs. They were used by the beings some scientists believe all sentient races are descended from from. The only places Ilonigs are still readable are the desert planet of Ilog and the ice planet of Ilokis. These planets are located at the very most outer edge of the rim of known space. No archeological team has ever returned from either place. Oh my! Apparently, it is rumored that a hostile alien race from beyond the Rim monitors the planets and attacks anyone entering the vicinity." "Nothing out of the usual there, when do we leave?" Jacen asked. "We can't just charge off not knowing what to expect," Jaina countered. "Why not?" Tenel Ka asked. "Is that not what we always do?" "She's right, you know," Zekk said. "Yes, I know," Jaina agreed. "But maybe this time, we should be a little more careful. We could have been killed so many times." "All right, who says we throw her in the river-" Jacen started. "And depart immediately," Raynar and Lusa finished together, laughing. "And this time, you are not leaving me behind." Lusa smiled. "Of course, you really are right Jaina," Jacen said. "So let's make a plan." "All right, two planets, two ships. And between the all of us, two crews," Zekk said. "I got the Lightning Rod." Lowie and Tenel Ka claimed the Rock Dragon. "Hey, Jaina, uh, would you mind coming with us? It will be just like old times," Jacen said. "Besides, we're together in the dream." "You sound like Anakin. But I guess-" She looked at Zekk, who shrugged "-sure." "All right, Raynar Lusa, you're with me," Zekk said. "What is your intended destination?" Liya, the new arrival asked. She seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. "Uh, Ilog and IIokis," Jacen said unsure on what to do. What was she doing here? "Ah, hmm. Are you seeking the ancient ruins?" "I guess so," Jaina answered. "Need any help? Since the classes have been cancelled, there is not much to do here. I have heard much about the ruins, and the strange Force guarding them." "Uh, no offense, but you're not fully trained yet-" Zekk started. "But then, neither were we when we starting our crazy adventures. Sure. There's room on the Lightning Rod for one more." She bowed her head in thanks. "So Liya, where are you from?" Jaina asked. "Lets go pack." she and the new student walked away. "If Jaina hadn't just left, she'd say, 'What are we waiting for?'. So what are we waiting for?" Jacen asked, and walked Tenel Ka to her room. The others went to their rooms. They didn't know how long they were going to be gone, so they packed enough to keep them awhile.
