    No talking to dead people? :(
    *snaps fingers* too bad...

    The Princess Bride!!!= awesome movie!!! ;)
    I own it!
    My dad really likes that corny, high-pitched Sicilian {SP???} dude. :p
    I go for the bashful giant!
    *idea lightbulb pops up*
    Hey, TJF! You should create a giant in RotJ!!!
    Wouldn't that be funny!!!
    *thinks twice*
    Errr...maybe not...just an idea ;)
    No, wait! Just as Brakiss is about to wake up {or whatever, because he isn't dead}, then this giant falls out of the ceiling and lands on him!!! :D
    *shakes head at own silliness* :p

    Ok...what was I going to say when I posted this?...

    Oh, yeah!

    *is speechless - in a good way*


    I step back into the lightside. If you're going to write like *that*, Jaina can have Zekk. I know a lost cause when I see one ;)

    Out of everything I was blown away by that chapter. Fantastic.


    Princess Bride - one awesome movie.

    Striker: Guys can fall prey to soap operas. Trust me on that.

    [face_laugh] well then, i guess i know who i'll go to if i ever decide to take up soap operas, and need some background info :p

    Jaina_Rocks: No talking to dead people?
    *snaps fingers* too bad...


    sorry, i didn't even think of that...but Lara (in "Children of Destiny") might be plagued by it :p at least, she was in the original version... [face_laugh] *has to post that somewhere, sometime...*

    My dad really likes that corny, high-pitched Sicilian {SP???} dude

    [face_laugh] he's my third favourite, i think...no, wait...the clergy is definitely in the top area... ("Mawwige! Mawige is wut bwings us here today...") and inigo...

    ach! i love them all... :p

    Hey, TJF! You should create a giant in RotJ!!!

    a little late for that, isn't it? ;) ooh...but maybe in the sequel [face_mischief] except i have *no* idea why i'd need one... :p

    No, wait! Just as Brakiss is about to wake up {or whatever, because he isn't dead}, then this giant falls out of the ceiling and lands on him!!!

    mmm.... *steps away* maybe not :p

    Kazzy: *is speechless - in a good way*

    yay! i think you're the second or third person i've ever struck dumb in my whole life (with my writing). it's still an accomplishment [face_mischief] ;)

    If you're going to write like *that*, Jaina can have Zekk. I know a lost cause when I see one

    hehe...good to hear :D

    thanks [face_blush] :D

    Obi-Solo: :D

    06: *sniffle* It's... it's going to be over on Friday??

    okay, i'm crossing over into Monsters Inc. now...

    "c'mon, if you're gonna cry...i'm gonna cry...and...i'm never gonna get through this." :p

    And this... This was the fic that converted me to Z/J even though it wasn't really Zekk, and...

    you and me both! :eek: fortunately, i've had 2.5-3 weeks to prepare myself for this... [face_plain]























    :(

    Lt: thanks :D and...well...you know me and the mystic world :p once i get started, i can never stop 8-}

    Well, there's going to be a break between RotJ and CitR...I might even go so far as to finish Die Another Day before i start posting CitR. That way the posts will be quicker on both stories ;)





    second last post... :(

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


    When Jaina screamed, Zekk's heart stopped. He wanted to cover his ears, but found he couldn't. It rang within his heart and mind - not a physical scream, but one through the Force. "She's in pain!" he exclaimed, staring at Jaina's jerking body.

    Sanar probably meant that weak sound to be a snort. "You're so naïve," she muttered. "Ever heard of the saying, 'life is pain'? Never a truer phrase."

    "I didn't know she'd be hurt!" he snapped. "Not like this, anyway," he added a little sheepishly. It would do no good to yell at Sanar - if not for her, Jaina wouldn't even be alive. But still?

    Sanar's eyes were beginning to droop. "Life's fire is pouring into her blood again, battling back the ice of death. Every part of her is melting in a way it doesn't want to; she was dead, and she accepted it - wanted it, even, I guess, considering she was the one to cut her life force. She could have been with her dead loved ones again, and it's never easy to turn that chance down. Her body closed down, but now life is screeching through her veins like lava, forcing closed passageways to reopen. It's not pain, it's hell - but she'll live."

    "So you say," he muttered, eyeing Jaina worriedly. Her screams dimmed to moans, and then to silence.

    Sanar perked up a little; colour returned to her skin and her eyes grew brighter. "You need to go now," she commanded Zekk, her voice almost normal again.

    He looked up at her sharply. "But Jaina - "

    "She's sleeping - and she will continue to do so for some time. You killed an emperor, Zekk; the aftermath of the attack has stemmed suspicion, but someone's going to remember to check the throne room eventually. Bonds can exist even in the Dark side, I assure you." Her chocolate eyes were grim.

    "You'll have to carry her, of course," she continued, beginning to stand. She leaned only a little against the wall. "Use the servants' routes - I'm assuming you remember your way around?"

    He had to search his mind for a moment, but he found the memories he needed, and nodded. Carefully, he positioned Jaina his arms, and stood.

    Sanar watched the movement with just the smallest hint of strangeness on her pretty, tired face. "Do you have a ship?" she asked quietly, staring at Jaina.

    He shifted. "Onyx - I," he corrected, "have a cruiser, if the docking bay wasn't bombed."

    She nodded briskly, appearing to push aside her reaction to whatever had made her weird out. Zekk wasn't really paying attention to her. "They'll be here in a minute." When he didn't move, she scowled. "Oh honestly, get lost. You heroes are so damn annoying, you know that?"

    He reddened a little. "What about you?"

    She waved a hand dismissively and made her way to the window where Brakiss had fallen. "Don't worry about me. That's always been my job." She smiled, as if to reassure him, but it was unsuccessful.

    "If you ever need help - "

    Her eyes rolled in sarcasm. "Oh, yes, I know. Anything I want, because with Solo around you're allowed to be all sappy, right? Get out before I barf."

    He blinked, put off by her sudden mood swing, but left.

    Or - she thought with a sigh - he almost did. He just had to turn around one last time and say, "Thank you, Sanar - I'll never forget this."

    She growled. "Whatever. Have fun with her family!" She brightened at the mere idea.

    He sighed and left, just like she had expected - just like all the heroes who lived in a happy-ending fairy tale.

    And Sanar waited.

    thanks...this part was my "bang", so to speak, since it sets up for the sequel (jeez, now the computer's boycotting the U's...), and the epilogue is the whisper. but i loved this part so much :D it was tough deciding whether or not the "Sanar's Redemption Plea" (type-thing :p) should be the epiloge

    ANYway... :p

    I really, really like Sanar now. Just to let you know

    yay! :D

    *packs cartons of Kleenex in with party goods for tomorrow*

    thank you - i'll pack my own, but i have a feeling i'm going to be all weepy-female (*looks vagely ill at the idea*) and not have enough :p

    How did I ever have doubts??

    you know......i really don't know 8-}

    The things that Sanar does for those two. Or puts up for those two. Then they go and abandon her...



    She tsk-ed. "Now, now, is that anyway to treat your sister, and your only chance of redeeming your complete ineptness in the eyes of your potentially salvageable emperor?"

    Poor Sanar! Brothers can be a pain! :p

    I can't believe it's almost over!!!
    Zekk and Jaina are finally together and...and...*tries not to break down into tears* and they are going to live happily ever after!!! *fails* :_|
    Actually, considering TJF's writing and the sequel, they'll probably live anything other than happily ever after, but as long as they're together it will be ok!!!

    And Jaina will get to tell Tenel Ka about Jacen! **bittersweet tears** That poor girl...

    Sanar is such a stubborn fruit! Why won't she just become friends with someone? :p
    Kyp came to talk to her :) ...

    *sniffle* End soon???

    p.s. Happy Belated Thanksgiving!!!

    lol...sanar's weird that way; she *wanted* to be left there *rolls eyes* anyway, i don't think she could last (without having a mental/emotional explosion) very long around a bunch of "heroes" :p [face_laugh]

    Is he gunna liiiiivve?

    you'll see in the sequel [face_devil]

    SpikeLead: Darth Sore Throught and Darth Evil Cough have struck again.

    ugh, you too? i have a cross between a cold and the flu :p i'm just getting over it...
    well, at least you're not puking :p

    yay, cleaning 8-} have fun

    PsychoSniper: thanks :)

    Jaina_Rocks: thanks :D

    Poor Sanar! Brothers can be a pain!

    that they can...it's too bad, cuz devnos used to be really nice. of course, that was before rafintair and horaire got their filthy hands on him :mad:

    Zekk and Jaina are finally together and...and...*tries not to break down into tears* and they are going to live happily ever after!!! *fails*

    it sure appears so :)

    TK knows Jacen's dead, but i'm not relishing the post where jay hands over jacen's holo :(

    **bittersweet tears** That poor girl...

    poor girl, indeed :( :_|

    Sanar is such a stubborn fruit! Why won't she just become friends with someone?

    [face_laugh] [face_laugh]

    Kyp came to talk to her

    with the way he keeps showing up, i'm beginning to believe that (in his guilt) he's assigned himself as her guardian angel :p

    p.s. Happy Belated Thanksgiving!!!

    you too :p

    hey, speaking of which....does anyone watch "Everwood"? [face_laugh] i don't know whether to laugh or rant when the americans forget that things or different in canada...

    ie: thanksgiving is in *october*, not the end of november, and no one is shopping for their christmas tree by then.
    -bush is the *american* president; he has very little to do with keeping the law in canada

    *rolls eyes* anyway... 8-}


    i'll probably post around noon JC time, since that seems to be when people show up again :)

    okay, i'll do official thanks and acknowledgemetns later, but before i post the epilogue, i'd like to say a big THANK YOU to all my readers (lurkers and one-time posters alike), and especially Jade_Max. Even though she couldn't help me finish this story due to work/time constraints, she was there when I needed the help the most :) :p

    so, without further ado...



    ----------------------------------------*



    Epilogue:


    Things were blurry in Jaina-world - foggy and painful - but she forced her eyes open anyway. She had to see - had to make sure.

    Her eyes skittered for a moment before her conscious mind realized what her unconscious needed. For a moment, she didn't see him.

    For a moment, she panicked. Was it a dream? Oh, please, don't let it be a dream - it couldn't be a dream?

    And then he was there, walking slowly back into the room with a mug of caf. His black hair was loose and messy; she revelled in the change. His face was haggard, but it wasn't flinty or impassive, so she felt her heart rise. She hadn't failed - her mother had been wrong.

    Zekk?her Zekk?was right before her, alive and in control.

    She tried to whisper his name, but her throat was arid, and only a dry cough came out.

    His head snapped up at the sound, and she had the feeling that he had done so many times - hoping he had heard proof of her life, but crashing down into reality when he didn't. When he saw her watching him, his eyes widened and ten years dropped off of his face. "You're a awake," he whispered, as if expected her to cringe from the sound.

    She rubbed her throat as her eyes watered. The thirst was getting worse. He picked it up. But, she thought, of course he did. Their bond was wide open, and even as weak as she was, she knew she would feel his every thought if she just reached out.

    "Water - of course - sorry," he apologized. "Of course you'd be thirsty. Just a minute." He disappeared into what she assumed was a kitchenette, then came back with a large glass of water. She sat up (had it always taken so much energy to do that?) and accepted the glass with a "thanks", before downing the whole thing in a few, big gulps.

    He took the glass back. "You're still tired, I suppose."

    She couldn't deny it - someone could have been buried in the bags under her eyes. "Maybe a little."

    He nodded and she wiggled down the bed, until she was once again on her back. Immediately, her eyes started to droop. He hesitated a moment, then kissed her on the cheek. "I'll see you in the morning," he said - whispering again.

    She smiled as the darkness overwhelmed her.

    In the morning?

    Checkmate, Onyx.

    Awwwwwwwwwwwwww... [face_love] [face_love] Poor Jaina.... :( :D

    :D Mrwowr....

    She hadn't failed - her mother had been wrong.

    Leia's always wrong. [face_plain]

    Zekk - her Zekk - was right before her, alive and in control.

    :eek: HER Zekkie??? I OBJECT!!! :_| MY Zekkie. :D

    His head snapped up at the sound, and she had the feeling that he had done so many times - hoping he had heard proof of her life, but crashing down into reality when he didn't.

    Poor Zekkie... :( That's got to be heartbreaking...

    She sat up (had it always taken so much energy to do that?)

    I know how you feel Jaina. [face_pained] My one main thing I was thankful for is t he fact that I can sit up right. A little over a year ago I got sick and was laid up on my back for seven months. It took me almost two months after getting over the pneumonia[sp??] to be able to sit up - I didn't even bother with walking till March. I had gotten sick in August. :( Life sucked... Thanksgiving last year really wasn't fun...

    He hesitated a moment, then kissed her on the cheek. "I'll see you in the morning," he said - whispering again.

    Kisses!! :D Wrong spot though Zekk... :p I think you need to work on your aim...

    Checkmate, Onyx.

    Haha! Take THAT you sick <censored>!! [face_love] I love you anyways though?

    I LOVED IT TJF!! :_| LOVED IT!!!






    HAPPY FIFTEENTH BIRTHDAY!!! :D

    *hands her large gift*

    *gift is a plaque stating that the office it is hung in is the personal property of The Supreme High Goddess of Everything There Has Ever Been and Ever Will Be*
