    MY LIFE OR HERS

    Prologue

    Jag Fel sat in his clawcraft, watching the swirling lines of stars that occurred when in hyperspace go by, and contemplating the events of the past few weeks. After winning the battle of Borealis the Jedi that had lived on Eclipse, the temporary Jedi sanctuary, planned to make a final trip back to ritrieve any items that had been left. These items were to be taden to the new Jedi santuary in the Maw just beyond the planet of Kessel. to insure their safety, more or less, Twin Suns Squadron had been chosen to fly safty and escort the Jedi to Eclipse, //not that they need any help//,
    Jag thought ruefully.

    No matter though, he knew as well as anyone that his Uncle Wedge sent the squadron because he knew Jaina Solo would want to pick up the rest of her personal items and... to finish morning for the loss of her brothers.

    Jaina...

    Every time Jag thought about her ir sint a thrill through him.

    A month ago he wasn't sure what she meant to him. She had made it so difficult to be around on Hapes. Taking offence at every turn and not caring at who she was yelling at.

    //It's just grief!// He told himself, but didint understand why she couldn't deal with it. He had also los two siblings but unlike Jaina he had dealt with hes grief. When he had tried to convey this to though, she lashed out at him. It wasn't untill later that he had unstood his mistake. Yes,he had lost two siblings, but he still had two left Jaina did not. He also realized that he had not felt his family members die as Jaina had, having had a close Force bond with her brothers.
    Later during the battle at Hapes Kyp Durron Had been shot down saving Jaina. Kyp having gone EV. in time was then picked up by Jaina and transported back to a med station where he was swiftly treated. Soon after being treated, Kyp and Jaina had left Hapes without a word and flew to Borealis.

    Since that was where the NR's Military forces had gone to he decided it was the most logical place to be.

    Having joined Jaina's squadron in an attempt to become closer to her, Jag was nearly killed in a dogfight when grazed by a singularity effect and his shields failed. It was determined that there was nothing anyone cold do for him, being in the middle of an enemy fleet. All squads were ordered to fall back, and all did except Jaina who had refuesed to give up hope and denied direct orders to save him.

    Knowing she had given up everthing to save him he asked her why.

    With tears in her eyes she told him she didn't want him to go away after losing everyone she had ever cared about, not if she could stop it. Upon hearing this, Jag's, heart leapt hoping beyond hope that she cared for him.

    And when she started to cry, it tore into him with the force of a raging wampa and he had needed to do anything to take away her pain. When he pulled her to him, he was afraid that she would resist hes touch, and rejoiced when she leaned into him.

    And yet she still cryed. Trying to soothe her pain, he assured her he wouldn't leave that as long as she wanted him to stay he would gladly do so.

    They had kissed then and Jag had never felt more alive. Who knew how long they stood that way in each others arms, but Jag wished that it could have been forever.

    Jag came out of his reverie when his com board buzzed and signaled the polots to come out of hyperspace and start their decent towards Eclipse.
    -----------------------------------------

    After finishing his check list Jag hot out of hes clawcraft and went to see Jaina out of her X-Wing only to

    OK!!!
    Im back
    Heres to all you fathful Readers out there.

    The first chapter you guys have been waiting for... *sorry if its short I havent had time to send LT. the rest yet...

    Oh by the way THE FOREST IS SPECIAL you will find out why later.

    CHAPTER 1...

    Jaina walked toward the forest intending to slip into the small clearing, that she had found the first time she had come here,
    unnotist. As far as she could tell no one else came to the small meadow. One reason why she liked it. //The one place I can go without any obstructions,// She thought wryly.

    She wound her way through the forest about a half a kilometer, taking the many various twists and turns to the clearing, unsuspecting that anyone was folowing her.

    When she reached the middle of the clearing Jaina stopped and looked around. Everything was the same as she had left it, as if frozen by time itself. Even the grass seemed not to flinch when she took a step. All around gher there were the most unique flowers in a perfect circle outlining the small meadow. Across to her right there was a small boulder big enough to lay on and about five meters from there was a small waterfall that came out as a stream which was surprizingly quiet even for its size.

    She decided to sit on the small boulder, which was hard and cool and always felt good after long hours in an X-Wing. Jaina sat their gaizing up at the canopy and back down all around her wanting to remember everything about it. For she new all to well that it was probably the last time she would ever see it.
    *****************//___// Means he's thinking.

    Jag kept quite a distance when following Jaina. //Its probably pointless,// He thought, //She more than likly already knows I'm here. //Still he didn't want to disturb her. Jaina obviously came out here for a reason, //Wherever here was,//wherever Jaina was going it sure was taking a while.

    Something in the back of Jag's mind clicked as her realized that Jaina had stopped
    walking and was standing in the middle of a beautiful clearing with her back to him. At that moment the rising sun shown through the canopy draping Jaina in a multitude of colors that danced and shimmered all around her like a silent welcome back. Jaina raised her head to it just as it slowly faded away. Undesturbed he saw her walk toward a boulder and sit down, and even though he hadn't seen the expression on her face during any of this, he knew she had found peace in a galixy that was so torn apart by war... She had found PEACE...
    ____________________________

    Ok people there it is i know its short.
    And it might seem a little unexplained with some mistakes but remember its told mostly from Jags point of view so Jaina shouldnt be noticing every little thing that shes doing.

    Still sitting on her rock, Jaina felt a warm hand on her shoulder. Startled, she turned around quickly and looked up. A lovely smile crossed her face. Jag sat down beside her and she gracefully slipped into his arms. There was no need to explain the happiness she felt, he knew. She had found her peace and only needed someone to share it with.

    Jaina's joy overwhelmed her so much that once again, she found herself softly crying in Jag's arms, but this time at least, they were tears of love and laughter instead of pain.

    Jag noticed her crying and pulled away slightly to look at her and smiled. Her eyes shimmered like Rainbow Gems. He could see her joy with every tear on her cheek.

    Jag had never know that someone could feel so much happiness never knew that so much happiness even existed and was startled when he realized that he felt it too. There?s something about this place, he thought, but what?.

    With that Jag gently pulled her closer and softly kissed her tears away. They parted and looked deep into each others eyes. Then Jaina slowly brought her chin up to his and brushed her lips against his, and what started out as a slight kiss deepened and slowed as he returned it fully. She wrapped her arms around his neck and felt his wrap around her waist to hold her gently.

    When they finally parted from the kiss, neither released their grip on each other. Jaina however did shift. She slipped one hand around his back and the other she rested just underneath his collar bone, and rested her head softly on his shoulder, as his head pressed gently on top of hers.

    Neither knew how long they stayed in the embrace before Jaina murmured something that Jag had to strain to hear.

    "I love you Jag," She whispered.

    Upon hearing this Jags heart raced, and he struggled to find the right words to say. Wrapping his arms around her tighter and whispered, "And I love you, my beloved. I always have and I always will."

    *******************

    A while later, Jag realized Jaina had fallen asleep in his arms. Unwilling to wake her, he slowly lifted her up and started carrying her towards the Jedi Shelter, hoping nobody would see them. It was just after midday and almost everyone should be taking their lunch.

    Jag found the small apartment that had been given to Jaina with little trouble. Thankfully no one had seen or stopped them. Jag palmed the door open and stepped inside. It wasn't much more than a one room apartment with separate living quarters. He walked through a doorway to find a repulsor bed and placed her down in it pulling the covers over her. On impulse he caressed her cheek and kissed her forehead. He turned to leave when he saw a small holopicture dated pre-invasion with Jaina and her fellow Jedi students all smiling. Jag found he recognized every face in the picture but two. There was Tenel Ka, Zekk, Lowbacca, and the small girl Tahiri. Jacen and Anakin, Jag thought, So that?s what her brothers looked like. Jag turned and left hoping Jaina would stay asleep long enough for him to surprise her with a home made Corellian dinner.

    Jaina awoke to a heavenly aroma. She opened her eyes and found that she was in her apartment, and wondered where Jag was and what smelled so great! Getting up she walked through the doorway and gasped at what she saw. Candle light lit the room, soft music was playing, and on the table were her favorite Corellian foods. And there in the middle of the room stood Jag in his usual black flight suit with the biggest grin she had ever seen on his face. She ran to him then and hugged him as hard as she could while he whirled her around. Placing her back down, he stepped away, bowed and kissed her hand. Gesturing to the table he said, "My lady your table awaits."

    Sitting down Jaina finally found her voice, "Jag h-how did you do all of this?" She asked in bewilderment. "I have my ways." He assured her with a slight smile on his face. Jaina dared not ask anymore for fear that all of this would vanish, how had he done all of this she wondered, its all so delicious.

    They finished eating and she opened her mouth to thank him, but he placed his hand gently over her lips. "Shh," he said, "Wait." She complied and he took their plates away, brought two smaller saucers and then as if from nowhere another plate appeared holding some kind of dessert. She couldn?t see what it was until he placed it in front of her, ryshcate. He had made her ryshcate.

    "Jag its so wonderful, thank you." She whispered, she wanted to say so much more but didn?t want to destroy the moment so she just got up from her chair and knelt down next to him. Wrapping her arms around his waist, she raised her head and kissed him lightly. When it ended, she smiled meekly and went back and served them both a piece of ryshcate.

    When they finished off the ryshcate, which was every bit as delicious as it smelled, they blew out all the candelabras, save one, which Jaina picked up and taking Jag?s hand she said, "I want to show you something," and led him through her room. She released his hand to pull back a curtain which revealed a door to a balcony. She took his hand again and lead him outside. Surprised to find it was full dark out side he checked his wrist chrono: 1900 hours.

    Jaina leaned against the balcony rail her back toward Jag. A small wind blew by and she shivered slightly. Jag stepped close to her and wrapped his arms around her enfolding her in a warm embrace. Jaina leaned into him and sighed contentedly as Jag kissed her neck softly. "I love you," he said and she smiled, "I know, I just wish this moment could last forever."

    "Maybe it can," he whispered.

    She turned her head slightly and as she gave him a questioning look she could hear his heart race.

    "Jaina I know that we?ve only known each other for a short time, but I have never loved anyone as much as I love you. I know I don?t have much to offer you except my love, but I?d travel to the center of the Universe and back for you."

    Jaina turned in his arms and looked up with tears in her eyes. At first Jag feared the worst, but smiled and lightly placed her fingers over his mouth and whispered, "Your love is all that I want." She let her hand fall to his shoulder and rose up on her toes to kiss him sweetly.

    When they parted Jag loosened his grip on her to reach in his pocket and produced a small white box. He opened it and asked, "Marry me?" Jaina smiled mischievously, "I thought you?d never ask," She said and pulled him closer.

    **********************

    Jaina woke with the rising sun that morning, realizing that she was still in Jag?s arms. They had been lying in the small hammock on the balcony watching the stars the night before and she had once again fallen asleep. Jaina looked at the ring on her finger; it was set in a platinum band that swirled around into a flower with dark a sapphire gem and two diamonds shaping the leaves. Jaina lifted her head to look at Jag. His face was so peaceful that she hated to wake him, but everyone was probably wondering where the two of them were.

    Shaking him lightly, she whispered in his ear, "Hey sleepy." His eyes flickered open

    As promised heres the quicky!

    Oh and i just found out my GBF not only broke his finger but also sprang it. so in tribute to his poor finger this is my dedication to him.

    *********************

    Chapter 2.

    Han and Leia were gathering together a few extra crates. Almost all of their things were packed away. The only things now were their son?s possessions. They had just gotten the last of the empty crates together when Jaina walked in. Watching Jaina, Leia noticed there was something oddly different about her daughter, a sort of happiness that she couldn?t conceal. She was trying to figure it out when Jaina spoke, "Hi mom, hi dad!" She stopped suspiciously then and asked, "What!?" Suddenly, it clicked Jaina, her only daughter was in love. With who Leia couldn?t guess, a question for another time...



    However all happiness fell away from Jaina?s face the moment she saw the empty crates. This was going to be one long day. Leia watched as Jaina silently picked up a crate, and with a haunted look on her face walked out the door toward Jacen?s old quarters.

    Han, Leia, and Jaina reached Jacen?s door, and for a moment stood there in silence. Jaina was surprised when she found that she wanted to be the first on to walk into her twin?s room. Palming the door she walked in and inhaled sharply.

    **********************************

    Jaina had never really mourned for Jacen. For the very reason that she couldn?t really believe that he was dead. There was no proof, no body, she hadn?t even felt him die, and yet... she couldn?t bring herself to think he was alive, that would be too much to ask for.



    She felt a hand on her shoulder that cut into her silent reverie. Turning she looked at her parents and nodded, understanding her fathers gesture, they didn?t have much time.

    Chapter 2.

    Jag finished returning the remaining items to their rightful owners. He decided to spend some time in the hanger bay making sure his claw craft was working properly, and was surprised to see no one there. With the Twin Suns Squadron here, there should have been more pilots working on their ships. Oh well, he thought, maybe they all went to the mess hall.

    Opening the underneath storage compartment that held his tools, he bent down to pick them up and when he turned back around, he was surprised to find someone behind him. What was more surprising, however, was who was behind him.

    "Jedi Zekk," he nodded in acknowledgment.

    The Jedi?s only response was, "Could I have a word with you Colonel?"

    "Very well," putting his tools down he leaned against his claw craft looking impassive, although he was quite puzzled as to why the Jedi Knight would ask to speak with him.



    *************

    Sitting on the floor with her back against Jacen?s bed was Jaina Solo, slowly prodding through a box she had found under her brothers bed. She had organized its contents to look at them better. It might be a small box, She thought, but its contents were many. Jaina looked down again 4 holovids, home made probably, two data disks, 1 complete datapad set of "Everyday caring from Aabetha?s to Hybrid Zythers," Smiling Jaina murmured, "Jacen and his plants." Going on she fingered a few pink shards of a gort egg and, surprised she looked down again, "Shards of Alderan!" she stammered, "Mom, Dad look at this!" she shrieked, holding up a small gold ring with one of the Corsica gems for a stone.

    "I found it in the box," she explained. Glancing back down, she knew that the box contained Jacen?s most priceless possessions. Carefully, she placed the ring back in the box. Then taking out the holovids and the two data disks she placed them in her pockets. Finally she stood up, sealed the box and placed it in a crate. Turning around she found her parents still shocked by the ring.

    Leia spoke first, "He was in love, and we never knew."

    "I knew." Jaina said quietly. Han and Leia stared questioningly at their daughter.

    "When Jacen... faded, I felt how Tenel Ka took it, she was furious. Blind rage overtook her. Pain for having lost the one she loved." "I suspected Jacen loved her and just really never knew it, but the ring pretty much confirms everything. I never knew Jacen to care for someone more than he cared for her."

    Nodding thoughtfully her parents started to close the crates. Jacen hadn?t had a lot of things but it had taken them most of the day to go through everything and pack it away. They then placed the crates on a small repulsar sled that was sitting outside the door.

    Breaking the silence Han asked, "Hey kid you coming?"

    "Umm, no, I?ve still gotta check with squadron security, make sure there hasn?t been any Vong activity in system."

    "All right we?ll see you later then."

    "Ok," she agreed giving her parents both hugs, "Love you both!" then walked in the opposite direction. The squadron meeting wasn?t actually for another hour or so but she wanted something to eat and some time alone to see what was on the holovids and datacards.

    ******


    Jag waited in silence for the Jedi Knight to say something.

    Finaly Zekk spoke, "You?re, um, in Twin Suns Squadron right?"

    "Yes."

    "Well then, could you tell me how Jaina Solo is doing?"

    "She?s quite well," Jag responded, Where was this going?, "Exceedingly better after she left Hapes, but may I ask why not just ask her yourself?"

    "Well... We Were not exactly on speaking terms," Zekk stammered, "When I left Hapes she said I?d betrayed her, for refusing to help find her brother." He paused, "But I knew as well as anyone that Jaina was under the influence of the Dark Side of the Force, and only sought revenge for her brothers." "I knew she would have to be stopped, at any cost." He gulped, "and I just couldn?t do that. I... I?d kill myself before I?d hurt her."

    Sighing Zekk went on, "That?s why I had to go. Jaina at the time just couldn?t understand that."

    *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

    Jag listened with silent amazement as Zekk spoke. So... Someone else was in love with Jaina. Well, this certainly makes things more complicated. Great! I do NOT need a conflict with a Jedi Knight! Trying an easier solution Jag said, "I?m sorry, I don?t know how much help I can be but, I could try explaining to Jaina what you just told me."

    "Thank you." Zekk Muttered, he nodded to Jag then turned and walked back to his ship.

    I?ve got a bad feeling about this, Jag thought, Jaina was not likely to be happy about this. Grimacing he climbed up to his claw craft and got to work on his ship.

    *~*~*~*~*~*

    There you go R/R if you all have time

    ***************

    Chapter 3

    Jaina sat in the mess hall with a cup of caf in one hand and a data pad in the other. Unfortunatly Jacen?s data cards required a password. This annoying little program couldn?t be decoded, you had to have the right password to get through the filre wall or else all the info would wipe itself clean. It was a new system which had been developed by her younger brother Anakin a few months ago.

    Sithspit Jacen whats so important? Jaina sighed and looked up to see Jag walking toward her. By the look on his face she knew she wasn?t going to be able to clear her head. Shuting off the data pad she put it down.

    Looking up she gave Jag her sweetest smile and said, "Hi Jag whats up?"

    "Oh, not much," He said, "Can I join you?

    "Of course, you don?t have to ask."

    Seeing the data pad he asked, "New assignment?"

    "Sort of, I was going through some of Jacens things when I found these." She motioned to the data disks and holo vid tapes. "They have an encryption code that can?t be broken without the correct password. I don?t know it and you only get one try. Whatever?s on here Jacen didn?t want it falling into the wrong hands."

    "Well firewall passwords are normally short and easy to remember," Jag said, "It?s most likly something the everyday enemy wouldn?t know. Something only someone that knew him would know. Like the name of a favorite place or an old friend."

    Jaina nodded thoughtfully, "Well I?ll work on it later."

    "Speaking of old friends," Jag said carefully, "One of yours stopped by to see me."

    Puzzled Jaina looked up questioningly, "Who?"

    "A ahh... Jedi Zekk I believe."

    Upon hearing Zekks name Jaina?s face fell, then scowled, "Yes, go on what did he want?"

    "Honestly, he wanted to know how you were doing. I told him you were doing quite well."

    "Why didn?t he just ask me himself?" She asked bitterly.

    "He doesn?t think you want to talk to him. He says you think he betrayed you."

    "Well at least he?s got two things right." She said angerly.

    "Zekk also told me that wasn?t true. That the reason he left was because he knew that if you couldn?t be brought back from the dark side, that you would have to be stopped, no matter what. He said he couldn?t do that. That he loved you too much to ever hurt you."

    "No, Jag thats wrong thats not how he betrayed me." Jaina said quitely her anger starting to melt into sadness. Zekk took that path once before, he knows what it?s like. At one time her was the Shadow Academy?s Darkest Knight. But, I brought him back Jag, I was the only one who was able to. The fact is that when I fell he didn?t even try to help me. Oh, Sure he can say he loved me too much to ever hurt me, but when he walked away he did hurt me. Because he refused to even try and help me. I nearly died bringing him back from the dark side Jag, he could have at least tried to return the favor."

    Jag nodded and after a long silence he said, "Jaina, maybe he thought he was doing the right thing at the time," Lowering his voice he said, "My love don?t let one mistake ruin a life long friendship. Friends like that are hard to come by, believe me I know."

    Jaina took a deep breath and dlew it out slowly, "All right, the next time I see Zekk I?ll tell him I forgive him, but next time he better come to me instead of someone else."

    "Good," he said, "But in the mean time could we get something to eat?"

    "Oh, yeah sure sounds great."

    *******************

    After ordering a small dinner for the both of them Jag watched Jaina as she spent more time looking over the data disks trying to figure out what the password might be, grimacing and frowning the whole time. Jag smiled slightly and took her hand from under the table. Startled Jaina looked up at him. Then smiling she said, "Thanks Jag I am kind of focusing a little too hard on this huh?"

    "Yes, thats why I?m here."

    "Oh really?"

    "Uh huh, I?m just the distraction you

    NEW POSTIE!!!

    ~ROGUE@)---




    HOPY YOU LIKY!!

    *****************

    Jaina was completely silent while they ate. She didn?t really eat much, despite how hungry she was, just sort of picked at her food and didn?t even notice that Jag was watching her.

    Worried, Jag said, "Jaina, I don?t think it?s safe for you to stay in your stateroom tonight. He may try to come after you. After the squadron meets why don?t you stay in mine?" Her only reply was a small nod of agreement.

    After a few more minutes of watching her play with her food, Jag asked, "Are you ready to go?" She nodded again and they walked to the conference room, not caring about the many pairs of eyes that were still watching them.

    **************

    After the meeting they walked down the corridor like zombies, neither speaking. Jag did however, reach for Jaina?s hand and found it was cold but accepting. They reached his room and Jag released her hand to unlock the door. Jag let Jaina walk in ahead of him as he sealed the door, and turned on the lights, keeping them a little dim. He walked slowly toward Jaina and saw her shaking from anger with her hands clenched.

    "Hey," he said softly, as he pulled her into a hug, "It?s ok. I?m here," before kissing her head.

    "Why did this have to happen, Jag? Every time something good happens something or someone has to come and rip it apart!" She yelled slightly.

    "I don?t know, but the Chiss have a saying: Everything happens for a reason. Maybe... just maybe, there?s something that caused this or something that?s supposed to come about from this happening." A small grin came upon his face and he suggested, "Or there?s always the fact that you?re just so wonderful every guy that knows you falls madly in love with you."

    A small laugh escaped Jaina?s lips, "Well that certainly can?t be the right answer," she said dryly.

    "What do you mean by that?" he questioned.

    Jaina sighed and hugged him a little tighter. "Well let?s face it," she said, "I?m not exactly pretty, and my only real talents are piloting and being a Jedi Knight. Other than that there really isn?t anything special about me."

    Jag pulled away then and Jaina was surprised to see him completely exasperated. "Ok, first of all... You are gorgeous, how you can say otherwise is completely beyond me. Second, you are the most special person that I know. I mean, Come on... Who else would defy every order given to them to save one person with the major possibility of getting killed themselves? And on another note if you ever talk that way about yourself again or even try to argue with me about it I?ll go and tell Kyp Durron what you just said and have him annoy you on that subject."

    Jaina was far to stunned to say anything. She was however, able to realize that her mouth was gaping open and forced herself to shut it. She had never seen Jag like that before, so determined to defend her, she didn?t dare contradict him. Besides, she thought, Jag always tells the truth, which makes those words worth more than all the credits in the galaxy. Jaina smiled mischievously?" You know what? You?re pretty cute when you?re angry,? she teased.

    "So are you, he said running his hand through her hair, now a few inches past her shoulders, and gazing into her eyes, he bent down and kissed her lips. Then, keeping one arm around her waist, he led her to the couch. Jag sat down and Jaina cuddled up beside him, putting her arms around his waist and laying her head on his firm shoulder. Jag automatically wrapped his other arm around her.

    Something pressed against Jaina?s side. Slightly letting go of Jag, she dug into her pocket and pulled out the holovids. "Oh, I never got to play these."

    "Well, now?s a good a time as any," Jag said.

    "Yeah,? she murmured as she placed the holovid on the small table and pushed play, curling right back up with Jag.

    Heres the next up everyone!


    By the way i ve had some questions and even though i believe i already answered it i'll say it again ECLIPSE IS NOT A SHIP IT IS A PLANET. i dont care wheather or not it was a ship in another book or not, in my story its a planet with a base on it ok? Just for clarifacation sake.

    So any who heres the next up! new chappy starting tomorrow if i havent already started it... PROMISE! please R/R

    **********************


    The holovid started and Jaina realized that this was taken on Yavin 4, before the invasion of the Vong. For a few second?s all there was to see on the holo was the luscious jungle moon. The camera turned then and Jaina had to hold back tears when it stopped on a 14 year old Anakin. Then, Tahiri and the rest of the young Jedi Knights appeared, all smiling and joking with each other.

    Starring at the holo, she said she said, "I remember this. It was right after our jaunt to Cloud City, just before we were pronounced Jedi knights... I never knew Jacen had footage of this. He must have hidden the holocam." Her voice was strained, but strangely calm. She might have been blabbering but she didn?t care. She knew Jag understood, by the way he held her and gently ran his fingers through her hair.

    The holo then fell on Jacen and Tenel Ka, they were sitting close together and he pulled a necklace out of his pocket and at her request he placed it around her neck as she hugged him.

    Suddenly, Jaina gasped and lurched forward, stopping the holo. Jag, who had still been holding on to Jaina, hadn?t had any time to let go and so was pulled up with her. Concerned, he asked, "Jaina what is it?"

    "That?s it, Jag! That?s it! The data disc, you were right an old friend. Jacen would never have used the name of a family member, but he would use the name of a friend. Someone who was inconspicuous but also meant more to him than anyone!" Jaina hurriedly pulled out the data pad. Turning it on, she waited as the access code screen appeared. Hoping beyond hope, she pushed in ?TENEL KA?. The screen went blank. Then Jaina was greeted by the message, "Access acknowledged, welcome Jacen Solo."

    "Yes! I knew it!" she shrieked. Slowly, she scrolled down reading every word taking in its full meaning. Unsure at first of what to make of it, Jaina stood there for fully ten minutes reading what the disk had to say when it came to an abrupt stop...

    Then, it clicked and Jaina finally understood what she was reading. Turning around, she quickly pulled out her comlink and punched in the numbers for Kam,s frequency. A few seconds later Jaina was greeted with a groggy "Yes?"

    "Kam, Jaina Solo here." She said quickly. "I need you to call an emergency meeting of the insiders. I?ve got something here I think you?ll all want to see."

    "Right. Kam out."

    Snapping off the comlink, Jaina stuffed it back into her pocket along with the data disc and holovid. Stepping closer, she wrapped her arms around Jag and hugged him fiercely. Confused, Jag asked, "Jaina what is it?"

    "It?s a missing piece Jag, a missing piece to the Force that no one has been able to understand before. Anakin started to figure it out before he died. He almost had it, or at least part of it. Jacen did to, only he wrote it down in here. But it?s unfinished, he must have been going to write it when we left for Myrkr. Wherever Jacen is, Jag, the other half lies with him. I?m sure of it."

    Jag pulled away and held her at arms length, "I guess we better get to the conference room then." he said. Nodding, she slipped around the table and walked out the door and down the corridor with Jag at her side.

    **************

    Chapter 4 : Alive?

    Jaina stood restlessly at the head of the conference room, trying to maintain an air of calm serenity, as everyone gathered together, but knew she wasn?t succeeding. Jag stood silently behind her, watching, ready to help at any time. As if sensing her discomfort, Jag walked unnoticed to her and placed a steadying hand on her shoulder. Turning, she looked into Jag?s all knowing eyes and gave him a small thankful smile.

    Right, she thought looking towards Kam as he brought the conference room to order, nothing to worry about. Suppressing a sigh, she tried to ignore the nagging voice in the back of her head, Yeah right, if that?s true then why is my Force sense going all screwy?

    When everyone was quieted down, Kam started to speak, "Now that I have everyone?s attention, I?m sure you all are wondering why we are here at zero hours, as am I. Jaina Solo has something she wishes to share, something that apparently couldn?t wait." Stepping back he motioned for Jaina to take the floor. Jaina did as instructed and started to speak.

    "Earlier today while sifting through my brother Jacen?s belongings I came upon this data disc." Holding it up she continued," When decoded I found that it contained a short summary of Jacen?s study of the Force. You?ll find as I have that he reached some startling prospects.

    "If you haven?t already done so, please place the data pad that has been provided for you into the terminal in front of you. When this information is transmitted to you, Do. Not. Save. It. Immediately after this meeting these data pads will be wiped and destroyed." Looking back at Jag, she nodded. He answered with, "Transmitting." She gave everyone a few minutes to glance over the information.

    *The force surrounds all things, binds them together but the Yuzhan Vong seem to display none of this. They appear to go against everything that we have been taught about the force. Are they apart of it or aren?t they? The Jedi Masters of old couldn?t have been mistaken about the force. The right answer is usually the one that is often mistaken to be far to simple, too easy to be true so I chose this: That the Vong are apart of the Force, for they are living creatures as are their biotechnology. It is not possible for them to be non living, some sort of ghost or wraith like creature from the unknown. No, the only answer is that they must be part of another side of the Force. One we have yet to discover. The Force can not grow for it already surrounds everything, but it is our mind set about the Force that must expand. We have sat far too long only thinking about what we know. Not many have ventured about the unknown. Not the Dark Side, but different ideas, powers that others ha..

    Second log.

    ***************

    I have spent many weeks exploring a clearing outside this base within the forest. It is different than anything I have ever seen. It does not change at all except through mind set. I did not realize this until I went in there one day in a foul mood and noticed it seemed darker, colder and wilder. Not the usual calm and warmth that it had normally displayed the other times I had visited. When going into meditation there, it shows visions, like the old cave on Dagobah, only this one doesn?t test you... it shows you what you want and don?t want to see. Sometimes, about yourself or about others. These are visions you wouldn?t get at any other time, for they are strange and when meditating any where else one rarely receives visions of anything. Unless they are far too important to miss. There is something strange her,e but I have yet to figure it out. Maybe when I come back I will.*

    ***************

    "For years, Anakin and Jacen fought over certain aspects of the Force. A few months ago, Anakin started to come to a new understanding of the Force. So did Jacen, only he wrote down what he found." Pushing the control panel, she brought up a map of the base on Eclipse and addressed everyone again. "As you can see, Jacen?s research begins here." Pointing to the map which

    Jaina, still issuing directions to her fellow Insiders, was about to conclude saying, "I want this project kept quiet. The less people, who aren?t Insiders that know about it, the better. All right, we?ll get started on it first thing in the morning." Suddenly the comm station blinked. Frowning, Jaina looked down and opened the channel, "Twin Suns Leader," she answered irritably, "What is it?"

    "Sorry to interrupt, leader, but it?s General Antilles. He says its important and wants to address the whole meeting."

    Calming, Jaina answered, "All right, patch him through." For a second there was only comm static, then a small holo of Wedge appeared for everyone to see. "General Antilles, Sir, you have the full attention of every Insider present on Eclipse. What do you need us to know?"

    "At ease, Sticks," he ordered, then addressed the whole meeting." I?ve just received a message from Luke Skywalker. An NRI agent was sent back to carry it safely to us. It?s in the form of a holovid shot by an intelligence officer who was out scouting a week ago. Luke seems to think it?s authentic. I was thinking you might be able to shed some light on it, Goddess."

    Jaina signaled for him to proceed and Jag stepped forward to get a better look. As the hologram began to play, it seemed like everyone in the room held their breath as if time itself was stopped cold by what was shown: Coruscant once a home for so many, now a grave yard for those who were unfortunate enough to be unable to get away when it fell. Where once massive buildings covered nearly the entire planet, now only rubble and debrie lay untouched. But then, large trails of most seemed to penetrate the recharge, crawling like untamed vines in every direction.

    The camera moved until a massive Yuunzhan Vong shaping complex engulfed the entire holo. Workers and slaves hovered in the fields surrounding the complex. Warriors stood at attention every ten meters or so, flexing their snakelike amphistaphs, ready to strike. At least twenty (visible) guards stood at the door which looked to be the only way in or out of the complex. Suddenly the large corral-like door, which looked to be the only way in or out the complex, opened only to reveal more warriors flanked by the small creature Vergere and...

    Shock rippled through the room and Jag caught Jaina in his arms before she fell, gasping for breath, to the ground. Easing her down the rest of the way, Jag held Jaina in his arms as she stared in shock at the holo, as if petrified...

    ********************

    Jag focused his eyes once more on the holo, which had been frozen in place, no doubt by the general, on the form that was in every way, if not more so, as dirty and disheveled as the slaves. But not even carbonate freezing would not be able to mask the determinedness of those chestnut eyes and the firmness of step of the form who was undeniably Jacen Solo, Jaina Solos twin.

    Exclamations of joy and confusion went around the room all at once as if Alderaan itself had been placed back together. Looking back down at Jaina, Jag saw that she was still in shock, but there was also a look of total bliss on her face. So happy it seemed, that the only words she was able to form were, "Jacen?s alive... Jacen?s alives?"

    Turning back around to the console, Jag saw that the holo had stopped and the General?s figure shown in its place. "Lt. Solo, are you there?" Wedge?s voice sounded throughout the room. Jag slowly released Jaina and stood up punching the relay button, he said, "She?s a little shocked at the moment sir."

    "Understandable," Wedge said, "Colonel, would you mind calming everyone down before I continue. There is still much more to be said."

    "Of course General. " Turning to face everyone, Jag raised his voice, "Could everyone please quiet down? The general still wishes to speak." As the room slowly quieted, Jag placed one of the non-occupied chairs beside him, and, bending down, he gently lifted Jaina to her feet and placed her softly in the chair. Then retransmitting, he said, "General, you may proceed

    Chapter 5: Visions.

    Luke, Mara, Corran, Tahiri, and Kell crouched behind the newly grown foliage on the once towering city of Coruscant, looking down from a small cliff that over looked the Yuzhan Vong?s main Shaping Center that held Jacen Solo. Without looking, Luke silently signaled the intelligence officers to proceed forward slowly. While Mara and Corran searched downward with the microbinoculars for any sign of Jacen. Finding him, Mara nudged Luke and handed him the binoculars. There, she pointed with the Force, do you see him?

    Following Mara?s mental picture, Luke saw a scraggly young man that had a starved, half-deadened look to him. Jacen had been gone for several months but there was no mistaking the stubbornness in his eyes, as the Vong tried to break him, that made him undoubtedly a Solo.

    As Luke watched him, he noticed that just as before Jacen was sitting with Vergere. Like a student with his maste,r thought Luke. Turning around, Luke looked at Mara, Corran, and Tahiri shrugging he said, "There isn?t really much we can see unless we open up to the Force." "We can?t take that risk," murmured Mara, "If either Jacen or Vergere felt us, the Vong would surely know in an instant!"

    "We?ll just have to wait and see if there?s any change in routine to signal our decent," said Corran.

    ************************

    As Jaina led the team of insiders consisting of mostly Jedi; Kyp, Kam, Lowie, and Jag to the small clearing, she found that she couldn?t keep her mind off of the past few days. They had stayed longer than originally planed in order to survey the clearing within the forest. Jaina and her parents had gone through Anakin?s things later that night and found even less than they had in Jacen?s room. Anakin carried only a few holos of family and friends, some spare tools and machines he?d been working on, and the many games and mind puzzles he?d loved working on as a child, and a few spare pairs of clothing. I wish you were here Anakin. You?d figure this puzzle out in no time at all. A warm breeze blew by then, wrapping around her like a comfortable blanket, as if saying, It?s your turn to understand Jaina.

    *************************

    Just before the team entered the clearing, Jaina ordered Jag to scan for any irregularities around the clearing. "Force senses open." Jaina directed, as she walked forward. As soon as each person, Jedi or not, crossed the threshold, an untouchable silence of calm and peace overtook them. When Jaina finally spoke her voice was barely loud enough for them to hear, "Forcebond everyone, search everywhere."

    Jacen Solo sat on the ground listening to Vergere intently. Today she was telling him about the knights of the Old Republic, though with enough vehemence in her voice to fool anyone who didn?t know her into thinking she hated every moment of it. She told him of how the Jedi could channel their power together, forcing their enemies back. Vergere then told him to bond with her so she could show him how to strengthen the Force bond so that even if a few members should fall the bond would not be weakened.

    Jacen did as instructed and felt the welcoming presence of every rock, tree, and animal on Coruscant. Something pricked at the back of his mind, something he hadn?t felt in ages...though concealed, they were human presences. Without moving his head, Jacen?s eyes searched upward to a cliff where small figures were concealed easily. Still staring a voice entered his mind, Yes, Jacen, they are here. We must prepare to leave. Now stop staring before one of these slimeballs notices. Grimacing inwardly, Jacen focused back on Vergere, but inside he couldn?t help think, I?m going home!

    ************************

    "Um... Luke we may have a problem," Mara whispered in his ear. It had been her turn to take watch. "What is it?" he asked. "We?ve been spotted, Jacen looked straight at us. I know he saw us." Mara moved over to her supplies and started packing up, "There wasn?t a move made to signal intruders. I don?t think he?s working with them, just doing what he needs to do to survive. We should get going though. If Jacen could see us, then the Vong will be able to very soon." Nodding, Luke got up and started packing. Mara signaled for everyone to do the same.

    *************************

    *Eclipse Base: Forest Clearing.*

    Through the Force bond, the Jedi became one. Together, their strengths and weaknesses were joined and completed. The power of the Force around them was overwhelming and, after a few seconds of what had been Jaina leading in a search through the Force around the clearing, ended up with the Force leading them. Slowly, the bond weakened as the Force drew them apart, showing each a vision. Kam, Kyp, and Lowie were each shown visions of life, how it had been, how it could be, growing older and living they?re lives despite the war.

    Kam:

    *Kam sees himself herding the young trainees with Tionne beside him and their own little girl resting in Tionne?s arms.*

    Kyp:

    *Kyp stood in front of a small group of people, most of them he knew, hand in hand with a young woman. They were both in Jedi robes with Master Skywalker in front of them performing the ceremony.*

    Lowie:

    *And Lowie, as always, was protecting Jaina and Jacen Solo, gripping them both in tremendous hugs and laughing with them as he muffled their hair.*



    Jaina, however, saw something quite different from the other three...

    **********************
    As Jag scanned the area, he couldn?t find anything unusual. Life signs were normal, no chemical imbalances of any kind, other than the fact that life here seemed to move ten times slower than everything else, it was perfect. Amazing, Jag thought, this place has been untouched for millions of years.

    Jag stopped scanning and quietly walked over to the small boulder to sit down. As he watched the Jedi in front of him, he saw that they were barely breathing and in a way they looked petrified. He also saw how Kam, Kyp, and Lowie had small contented grins on their faces as if they were seeing the things they most wanted in life.

    Jaina, however, looked completely disturbed and upset. He saw how her eyes began to move quickly underneath her eye lids and as her breathing sped up as if she was having a nightmare.

    ************************

    Luke, Mara, Corran, and Tahiri crouched just outside the Vong Shaping Center. They had traveled down the cliff so as not to be found by any Vong scouts nearby. As they surveyed the area, they saw various guards surrounding thousands of slaves and Shamed Ones that were working.

    Mara turned to Luke, "So," she said, "We have two options.

    The worldship was just as strange as Jaina remembered it. Coral grew everywhere. Jaina walked around for a while and in doing so, let her mind wander. Her thoughts grew dark as she remembered her time here. How she?d been in the grip of the dark side. The way she?d fought her way through Vong with searing Force lightning. On impulse, she walked to the place where Anakin had died and ran her hand along the coral where his body had been found. Sitting down, she brought her legs up and wrapped her arms around them, bowing her head to her knees, "I?m sorry, Anakin," she whispered, "I?m sorry I couldn?t save you the last time."

    "It?s all right Jaina, you can save me now."

    Jaina jumped and snapped her head towards the direction of the voice. She was completely dumbfounded at what she saw, "ANAKIN?!"

    "Yes Jaina, it?s me," his presence glowing brighter than a tempest electrical storm on Coruscant.

    "But, you?re...you?re..."

    "Dead?" he finished for her. "Yes, and no. My body is dead, Jaina not my soul."

    "But how?" she stammered, not believing it.

    Sitting down before her, he sighed, "Do you remember Callista, Jaina? How she embodied a ship for decades, and Uncle Luke when Exar Kun banished him from his body and tried to destroy it? Well, that?s how I am Jaina. When I stayed to destroy the voxyn queen I delve so far into the force, too far, my body couldn?t take it. Every cell was literally exploding into jelly, as I became part of the force. It?s like a symbiotic relationship Jaina, It?s keeping me alive until I can find another body to live in. But... I can?t do it alive Jaina, you and Jacen must help me."

    "How Anakin?"

    "I need a new body. Jaina, when Jacen comes back, you must go to the planet Kamino. It?s there that they make clones. Once it is done my spirit and body will once again be whole. But you must hurry Jaina." Anakin started to fade, "There?s not much time."

    "ANAKIN!" Jaina shouted.

    "Jaina, when Jacen comes back, he will have changed, don?t be afraid of him, its for the best, everything he will tell you is the truth." He was barely recognizable.

    "ANAKIN!"

    "I?ll be waiting for you." His voice was distant, "I love you Jaina... Oh, and tell your fiancé I approve."

    "Anakin, wait! I love you! Anakin!"

    The vision faded.

    ***********************

    Jaina was thrown out of her vision, throat dry and sweating from head to toe. She was shaking and breathing hard, and noticed that Jag was holding her in his arms, attempting to keep her from shaking. Everyone of them was freaking out and as soon as Kyp realized she was conscious, he yelled exasperatedly, "Jaina, what in Sith happened? It took you forever to come out of that trance. We were all sitting here waiting for you to come out of your trance when the next thing we know you?re yelling out your brother?s name and grabbing at thin air..."

    "KYP! If you don?t shut up right now, I won?t tell you." She croaked her throat still unmoistened. "Now can I please get some water?"

    Dawn broke on Coruscant and Luke, Mara, Corran, Kell, and Tahiri were ready to go. Waking up the Intel officers, they said, "Pack up, be ready to go at a moment?s notice. When we give the signal, get to another covered area and cover us, three to a group, one group stay here and cover the others from any attacker that may come from behind.?

    ***********************

    Jacen watched as the day seemed to go on in slow motion. Vergere had come to take him out of his cell and as usual the Vong that passed him shouted curses at him and shoved him to the side like he was a droch. Well at least they?re in a good mood today, Jacen thought to himself, They sure won?t be in a few minutes though. Although Jacen was sorry for the lives that would surely be lost today, he couldn?t help but feel happy about the fact that he was going home to his family.
    My family, he thought, surely they must have been changed by all of this, I hope they?re all right. Especialy Jaina, He had felt it when she fell: it had been fast and far. Too far. I hope she?s recovered from her brush with the darkness within her. Jacen?s thoughts snapped back to the present as one of the Vong shoved him hard into the coral based wall, with the cry of, "Infidel!" Ignoring the impulse to throw something sharp at him, he kept walking. They were nearly toward the doors now, or what served as doors, where many Vong guards waited to escort him and Vergere outside. In a few minutes this will all be over. Or so he thought...

    ********************

    The Yuuzhan Vong guards filed in around Jacen and Vergere as they grew closer to the partable coral that were used as entrances and exits. All this seemed normal to Jacen and Vergere, but little did they know that the Warmaster had planned something special for the mornings tutorial.

    *********************

    The coral doors opened and numerous Vong guards walked out into Coruscant?s blazing sunlight. Flawless in stance, every single Vong had the military precision of veteran Generals. Stang! Luke thought, this wouldn?t be an easy fight. He signaled everyone to get ready. They would wait for Jacen to appear with Vergere and when the Vong least expected it they would move.

    **********************

    Tsavong Lah stood in his main antechamber waiting for the Head Shaper to finish walking toward him. "Warmaster." He bowed.
    "Is the specimen ready for the final test?" Tsavong Lah asked.
    "It is, Warmaster." the Shaper comfirmed.
    "Good," Tsavong Lah said with his most sinister smile growing wider on his face. "Give the task to Nom Anor to preform. Maybe he?ll actually do something right this time, and if he doesn?t, maybe young Solo will kill him."
    "Yes Warmaster, it shall be done." The Shaper snarled, annoyed that the task should be given to a traitor of Yun-Harla.

    Chapter 6: Battle

    Jacen and Vergere walked to the middle of the field. Moving only his eyes he looked around, but didn't see any friendly faces. They were there though, he could feel them. Jacen had been half way in sitting down when he was shoved back up by one of the guards who threatened him with a war cry. Oh great something special planned for today how ironic! The Vong guards pulled bergere away as they gathered around Jacen in a large semicircle standing at attention, ever watchful.
    *********************

    Luke and Mara watched as the Vong prepared for something. Great, Luke thought, this can't be good. **Get ready to move. * He called through the Force.

    *********************

    For a few seconds there was nothing to be heard in the air. No voices, and no footsteps, not even the whistling of a small breeze. And then, crashing through the silence came a fierce battle cry which echoed as if they stood in a canyon, one which suggested death to the one it was intended for. In this case it was intended for one person and one person only... Jacen.
    **********************

    "Jaina are you sure?" Kyp asked after she had finished relating her vision of Anakin to them. He was pacing now, agitated and confused. "Couldn't it have been a dream, you have suppressed your feelings towards his death for a long time now. Maybe this is your minds way of..."

    "No, Kyp." she stated firmly, "You know as well as I do that JEDI DON'T DREAM! You all must have had visions too," she said pointedly, "You believe or at least hope that they might be true don't you?" Kyp
    went silent at that and Jaina smiled, "Just as I thought. Kyp if there is some small chance that my brother is alive, 1 have to try and bring him back." Kyp was silent for a few seconds as he thought about it. Then nodding to her he sighed, "I tried years ago to bring my own brother back and failed... I hope you succeed Jaina, for all our sakes."

    *********************

    "Good," Jag calmly interrupted, "But what about this forest? 1 have the readings you asked for and the strangest thing about it is hat its not strange at all. There's absolutely nothing wrong with it. This clearing is a perfect circle, each flower and blade of grass is exactly the same size as the others next to it, the water is completely pure, no bacteria or parasites at all. 1 was going to take a sample of plant life back to intelligence, but 1 thought 1 should talk to you first."

    "Don't take anything." Jaina said, "Leave everything as you found it." Jag looked puzzled.

    "I thought you wanted to find out all you could about this place?" He asked.

    "We know enough." she said, then still seeing his questioning look she added, "Some questions are not meant to be answered.

    *********************

    Jacen stood before the shaping complex, waiting for any other sign of change around him. Knowing that at any moment he would have to chose: run or fight. And by the look of things running wasn't an option. Jacen's eyes searched for anything different around him. Then his gaze stopped. Looking up he'd seen a flicker of movement on the top of the coral complex. Calming himself he took a battle stance. Any second now.

    Jacen's force senses blared as borrsh jelly and thud bugs came flying towards him from up high. Using the force to somersault backward Jacen narrowly missed being glued to the ground and being cut to shreds. **********************

    Angry cries erupted from the Vong guards but they did not move. They knew their orders, they weren't to attack unless Nom Amnor was killed. Through the angry cries though, there was a deeper, louder, and more hideous battle cry of the much sought after Nom Amnor, who finally showed his scared face and jumped down from the massive corral structure right at Jacen. In his hand however, there wasn't just an ordinary amphistaff, which would have been bad enough, but instead of it only having one recoiling venomous head it had three. One with spikes and spines jolting out of its reptilian skin, the second was breathing fire, and the third

    After boarding the Jade Sabre, Jacen carried Vergere strait to the sleeping area as the others went to the cockpit. Laying Vergere down on the sleeping pallet he quickly strapped her n and got up to get the med-pack off a shelf. Kneeling back down he removed the piece of his robe from her wound and cleaned it before placing the bacta patches on it. If he could at least try and make her more comfortable. Standing up he took out a spare flight sit and went into the refresher to get cleaned up.

    ******************

    Luke blew out a long breath of relief after pulling back the lever that allowed them to enter hyperspace. Today was a victory, for his family as well as the war. Nom Anor was dead, and could no longer cause trouble for them.

    Mara turned toward him. ?We received a message from Wedge. He said he contacted Han and Leia with the news about Jacen. He also says that the base has been moved off of Borleias to Calamari. Wedge says to hurry back, he doesn?t think he can go another week dealing with politicians.?

    Luke smiled, ?Tell him we?ll get there as soon as we can, and until then not to commit mass murder anytime soon. I?m gonna check on Vergere and see how bad her injuries are.?

    ?Alright I?ll see what I can do about that message. Tihiri you might try getting some sleep. Wes and Kell seem to be doing as much.?

    ?Thanks but, I think I?ll get something to eat this is as quiet as those two will ever get and I intend to enjoy it.? Unstrapping the seat restraints she got up and started walking toward the cockpit door when Wes and Kell both slightly turned their heads and with their eyes closed they murmured, ?We heard that,? and went on sleeping. Tihiri sighed shaking her head and walked out to the food replicator to get some caf.
    *****************
    Luke entered the sleeping area where Vergere was in a healing trance. She looked terrible her normally bright red and purple feathers were gray and some were molting off. The bed was soaked from sweat and blood from her wound.

    The refresher door slid open and Jacen, haircut short and newly shaven, leaned against the open doorway. ?How bad is she?? Luke asked without turning around.

    ?She?s dying.? Jacen said solemnly.

    ?I?m sorry Jacen she must mean a lot to you.?

    His head bowed, ?She saved my life, not to mention my sanity. I?ll never forget that.? he paused, ?She wanted to talk to you as soon as she woke up.?

    ?Alright.? Luke said, turning around to look at Jacen. Walking over to him he embraced his nephew in a firm hug, ?I?m glad your back Jacen, we all missed you. Jaina most of all.?

    ?It?s good to be back Uncle Luke.? Jacen said.

    ****************

    No longer pursuing the evaluation of the forest, they decided it was time to leave. Having packed up everything useful, the base now looked like a century old ghost ship. Its walls and floors bare. Already finished helping her parents load the Falcon, Jaina was now loading her X-Wing with a few personal items when her comlink buzzed. ?Solo here,? she answered.

    ?Jaina,? Jags voice came over the com, ?We?ve just received a message from General Antilles, he says we?re to meet him on Calamari. Apparently what?s left of the politicians have decided to settle there.? The disdain in Jags voice was clear and Jaina smiled. ?I copy Jag, Calamari it is. Make sure everyone knows about it will you??

    ?As ordered Great One. Fel out.?

    Going back to loading her X-Wing Jaina shook her head, Poor Wedge. I hope he doesn?t go out of his mind until we get there.
    ******************

    Jacen walked out of the living quarters on the Jade Sabre and into the mess area where he saw Tihiri drinking, or really just holding, a cup of caf in her hands. Seeing him though, she got up quickly putting her cup down and ran over to him pulling him into a tight hug. ?Jacen.?

    ?Hello Tihiri,? he strained to say, she was cutting off his air supply. Pulling away he held her at arms length, ?I guess we have a lot in common now.? He said dry
