	This takes place towards the end of 'The Krytos Trap' in the X-Wing series. "What?" I asked, shellshocked. It wasn't that I hadn't heard what Wedge had said, I just didn't believe what I did hear. When I hadn't seen Mirax at Tycho's trial, I had been surprised, but not worried. I just thought that she was out on some supply run for the Alliance. It had never occurred to me that something had happened to her. Nothing could happen to her. But the bombshell that Wedge dropped on me shattered this frail hope of mine. "Look, Corran, I didn't accept it at first either," he told me. "But Mirax is gone. She died with the rest of that bacta convoy." That handful of words rocked my world. I had promised Mirax that we would celebrate the victory of taking Courscant together. She couldn't be dead because we hadn't celebrated yet. She was going to walk right through my door any moment now, alive and well, as beautiful as ever. "No," I murmured quietly. I looked up at Wedge, tears pricking at the back of my eyes, and said, "No, she's alive. She can't be dead." Wedge sighed and looked at me sympathetically. "Look, Corran, you didn't see the convoy," he told me quietly. "Almost every ship was unrecognizable. Everyone died. Mirax died." "Did you see the Skate?" I demanded. "Did you see the wreckage from the Skate?" When Wedge didn't answer, I continued. "Then she could be alive. She could have plotted the jump wrong in her navicomp. She could be out there somewhere." Sighing again, Wedge sat down in a chair across from me. He leaned forward, elbows on his knees, chin resting on his hands. "Mirax was like a sister to me," he said. "It was hard for me to accept that she was gone. I understand that you and her were close. She told me that you were going to take her out to celebrate our taking Courscant. I know you're going to be in denial for a while, but you've got to come to terms with it. Mirax is gone." "I am not in denial," I told him vehemently. "Mirax is alive. Just because she's not alive here doesn't mean that she's not alive somewhere." Wedge shook his head, but didn't verbally reply to that. "You're on leave from the squadron until General Cracken says you're fit to go back on the line. I suggest you get some rest." With that, he stood and left me alone in my quarters. I knew that I should do as Wedge had said. The rest of the Rogues were probably lined up outside my quarters, waiting to talk to me. Wedge would probably tell them to wait until tomorrow, but then they'd come on in force. I would need all the rest that I could get to face them all. I stood and walked from the chair I had been sitting in over to my bed. Not bothering to change, or even to take off my boots, I collapsed onto my bed, face first. Only when my face was buried in my pillow did I allow my tears to flow, and my sorrow to overtake me. I had been sure when I was talking to Wedge that Mirax was alive, but now, when I was alone with my thoughts, I couldn't help but think otherwise. If I had been a better pilot during that final battle, I wouldn't have been captured by Isard, and I would have been there to save Mirax. She wouldn't have died. She might very well have been sharing this bed with me. But because of my incompetence as a pilot, she died, and I'll never know what might have happened between us. Stars, Mirax, I miss you. Just to let you know, this IS NOT a one post. There will be more forthcoming. -----signature----- Jedida watches my back Continuation (Jaina/Jag): http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=8072867&page=1 Death Isn't Always Permanent (Corran/Mirax): http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=8418018&page=1 See my bio for my other fics

	Excellent start. There aren't many Corran and Mirax stories at all, so to have a good one like this is great. -----signature----- "What can a King ask of a man like me?" "A better world than has ever been seen. A kingdom of conscience. A kingdom of Heaven."

	Well, I was re-reading the X-Wing series, and this part just stuck out like a sore thumb. It never explained how Corran felt when he found out that Mirax had 'died.' I mean, we know how she felt when he 'died,' but not the other way around. So, I felt I had to write this, even if I don't know either of their characters very well. Well, now that this is almost as long as the actual post, I'll stop typing. -----signature----- Jedida watches my back Continuation (Jaina/Jag): http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=8072867&page=1 Death Isn't Always Permanent (Corran/Mirax): http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=8418018&page=1 See my bio for my other fics

	Woohoo, a Corran/Mirax fic! A good one too. I love Corran, like you couldn't guess that from my icon and sig. Please don't wait too long to post again, this is too good to keep hanging. -----signature----- I have a feeling that fulfilling my potential would really cut into my sitting around time.

	Thanks, Mertroid!! Hey guys, I'm sorry, but no new post tonight. I'm just totally drained. I've had a long day, and my brain isn't in the mood for writing. And I can guarantee there won't be a post tomorrow either. I have a soccer game at 7 pm, at a field an hour away. So, it'll be Thursday at least. I'm so sorry!! But don't worry, I won't leave this hanging. -----signature----- Jedida watches my back Continuation (Jaina/Jag): http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=8072867&page=1 Death Isn't Always Permanent (Corran/Mirax): http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=8418018&page=1 See my bio for my other fics
