ENDED "The Sacred Silence" a NJO, SBS, Han/Leia, Anakin/Tahiri, Jania/Kyp AU; Han can use the Force

Princess1, those were great chapters. Really awesome!

I like the way both Jaina/Kyp and Bressal/Ganner's scenes and 'relationship' are described. Very nice and subtly different for each of the 'couples'. Nice writing for those, especially with Ganner and Bressal how we see it from each their perspectives.
(Bressal is full of surprises!)

And also rather romantic and sweet...

Looking forward to the rest!

 

okay i don't know what to say that could beat AAS .

Trickster Jaina Fel: Thats ok, glad you liked it.

padme96: Don't worry, I always apreciate everyones comments. Thanks so much.

AnotherAgentSmith: Thanks! I'm glad you liked both of the differnt relationships, and that I actualy managed to make them seem differnt, because of course they really would be, since their differnt people. Lol, yea Bressal is full of suprises, she is more then she seemed, as Ganner will so find out.

Crimson Sabre: Thanks!

Jaina Solo Durron: Awww, thanks, lol, yea, those two are characters, both a little to much alike in some ways I think.

Jez: Lol,yea, I couldn't resist doing that scene, it fit Ganner so well. Thanks. Lol, me to, I have a major weakness for mush, I write it every chance I get.

HanSolo: Thanks!

Shadow: Lol, thanks, yea, thats Ganner alright.

Leia woke up, suddenly aware of the empty place beside her.

Han wasn't there.

She slid out of the bed, feeling the cold tiles of the floor beneath her feet.

Then she saw him. Han was standing by the window, where the rising sun was begining to shine through.

But he wasn't looking at the beautiful veiw, his eyes were closed.

What was he doing?

Leia came up behind him and softly touched him on the shoulder. "Han?" she asked , just above a whisper.

Han flinched, as though startled. He opened his eyes and gave her a sheepish smile. "Hey Princess."

Leia stared up into his eyes, as if looking for something. "Han, whats wrong? What are you doing?"

Han shrugged. "Thinking, I couldn't sleep."

"What about?"

"I was thinking about what happend yesterday, I know it wasn't my fault, but there has to be a reason it happend! What could possibly make me do something like that? I......"Han trailed off,"I just don't know."

Leia was silent for a moment, and then asked,"What did you feel before it happend?"

"I don't know, exactly, it was so confusing, I remember getting more and more restless the closer we got to the market place, and then feeling angry without knowing why. But I had no control over it, it was like it was me, but yet I wasn't home."

Leia shook her head and sighed. She was just as puzzled as Han, none of it made any sense. It was like nothing she'd ever heard of before....

Then a sudden thought struck her. The crowds. Something about the crowds in the market place....

Then she remembered. They had been angry, very angery over something. And Han had said the closer he got the to market place, the worse things got.

Could the crowds anger have somehow been affecting Han? How could that be?

Then she remembered what Luke had told her before they'd left the Maw.

Han had no concious control over his ability to use the force, it was almost intirely emotional, like the time Han had actcadently called her to him, using the force.

So what if the emotions of the crowd had effected him enough to cause him to act compltely out of character?!

The idea horrorified her. If it had happend once, it could happen again.

"Han,"said Leia quitely,"do you remember what Luke told you about the force? The way you use it?"

Han nodded, understanding dawning in his eyes. "You mean I was feeling what that crowd was feeling, that they influenced me?"

Leia nodded.


Han shook his head sharply. "No! Thats impossible. That could mean that I could be influenced, at any time, and without me knowing it!"

"Yes Han, I know."

"But...."

"Han, you've got to learn to control it, or at least block others emotions out somehow."

"I will not be a jedi Leia!"

Han was scowling, and Leia didn't know weither to shout at him for his stubborness, or to cry because she was just as scaired as he was.

But she did neither, because she knew seh was right. "Han, you've got to get some sort of training. If not you will be dangerous to yourself, and to others."

Han looked away, and rested his forehead against the window, turning his back on her in stubborn silence.

Leia sighed. "Han, you know I'm right, please..

 

uh oh... two subborn people... watch out everyone

Nice post! More soon?

 

Cool post Princess1! I like it a lot!

Very mysterious and unsettling what's happening to Han. Knowing his character and how well you describe him it must be nerve wrecking to him. Nicely portrayed.
Also his discussion with Leia and how they argue is very realistic, true to 'real' arguments. (Disputes often tend to be silly in that manner, people being stubborn and such.)
Though sad to see them both that way. I hope they work it out!

 

<TJF shakes her head and groans> uh-oh...han and leia are both being stubborn...NOT good...

<ML snorts at TJF> oh please...think of all the evilness going on...hey, do you suppose, if i hung around han enough, my evilness would rub off on him?

<TJF looks frightened> um...ML...i don't think that's really a good idea...

<ML gives TJF an innocent look> why on earth not?

<TJF looks stressed> on earth it might be ok...but this is the STAR WARS galaxy...GL's universe, you know?

oh. <ML pouts before brightening> then can i take over Earth, enslave GL and take over the Star Wars universe?

<TJF glares> NO! absolutely NOT!!

why not?

because! SW is perfect, just as it is!

<ML considers this for a moment> true...but there aren't enough sith!

<TJF looks frantic> um...well, how about if you make your own universe where it's nothing BUT sith?

<ML considers this as well before shaking her head> mm...nah. then there would be no good guys to squash.

<TJF blinks> um...ok.

<pause>

then can you see why you shouldn't take over GL and SW?

<ML pouts> fine! i won't!

<pause>

i don't like you. <ML sticks her tongue out at TJF>

<TJF snickers> well i don't you like you either

**********END OF INSANE TJF/ML MOMENT********

********WE NOW RETURN YOU TO YOUR REGULARILY PROGRAMMED REPLY*********

great post princess!

UP!
~TJF & ML

 

Thanks everyone! More tomarrow.

Moonlight lady: Uh hi, thanks, but I'm confused, who are you? Are you Trickster Jaina Fel under another name, or what? Lol, I'm blonde, don't blame me for being confused.

 

no...i don't know any ML...<begins to whistle innocently> nope...don't know a dang thing...

she put me in her sig? oh dang it all...<sighs and kicks the floor, mumbling something>

<ML raises an eyebrow> they can't hear you IDIOT!

<TJF glares at ML and says:>

she's my evil (not to mention insane) half...ouch, admitting that hurt...

~TJF

 

Shadow: Lol, thanks.

AnotherAgentSmith: Thanks. I'm glad the portrayal of Han seems realistic to you, especially his reaction to whats happening to him, its so differnt from anything else in the real books, very foriegn to him, who I always saw as into more concrete things, not like Luke and Leia, his children etc. They should get over their arguement soon, as stubborn as they both are, but we'll see.....

Trickster Jaina Fel: Lol, I get it now ML is that insane side that you don't know about....Or are you her normal side? Lol, anyway, thanks.

HanSolo: Thanks!


*****


She was half asleep in the cave, feeling safe and secure. In the unlikely event that anything showed up, she could see it when it tried to come in the only entrance.


She stared out into the dusky night, and sighed, flipping her head tails over her shoulder. It was getting late, and even jedi needed sleep.....

Her eyes snapped open in what seemed like minutes later, but was probably hours.

What had awakend her? She'd sensed....something.

She strecked her senses, reaching with the force, finding nothing at all.

She was almost ready to relax again, when she felt a peculiar feeling of blankness near the cave.

It was like there was something there, but hidden from her, behind a dark curtain.....

Vong!

In the same instant the thought entered her mind, her lightsaber flew into her hand, and its illumination revealed a group of vong warriors at the mouth of the cave.

She raised her lightsaber, a grim look on her face.

So, this wasen't going to be such a easy mission after all.

She twirled her lightsaber, cuting a vong ampastaff in half, and a limb of another warrior. Their blood hit her skin and stung, like acid.

She blocked spinning thud bugs, which sizzled into lifelessness on her blade. But one got through her guard.

It hit her lekku.

Her sensitive head tails exploded with pain, as it clouded her vision.

She reached with the force to suppress the pain, but to late, she made one reckless, half blind swing, and her lightsaber clattered to the ground, cut in half by a vong weapon.

Blood streaming from her lekku, her mind spinning, wounded in the leg as well, she crumpled to the ground in unconciousness, using the last alertfulness and strength, to wrap her memories around the peices of her lightsaber, maybe someone would find them, someday......

"Kyp!Kyp!"

Someone was shaking him.

Kyp opened his eyes slowly squinting in the sunlight beating down on him through the tree's.

His vision swam into focus, and found he was flat on his back, staring up at Jaina's concerned face.

"Uh..."he groaned softly, and eased himself upright, "Its alright, I'm okay."

Jaina steadyied him into a sitting position, and helped him lean against a tree.

He felt a pain in his leg, and his head, that was quickly fadeing, as well as the fact his muscles were sore, as if he had been fighting.

But all of those sensations were dissapating, along with the dream, or should he say, the memory, Alema's memory.

In a moment he climbed to his feet, fully recovered, and reached for his packs, shoving the blankets back in, and dampening the fire.

"What are you doing?" demanded Jaina, still sounding confused and irritated. Kyp realized he hadn't explained yet. Oops.

He turned to Jaina. "I know what we are looking for."

"How?"

He tossed the peices of Alema's lightsaber to her. "This."

She rolled it over in her hands, as worry cleared from her face, and understanding dawned.

She shoved the lightsaber in her pack. "Then lets go!"

And they set off, Kyp following the trail the last image of the memory had set off in his mind, the image that had come right after Alema's last concious thought.

She'd seen some sort of old ruins, stone, covered with vines.....

They had to find that place.


*****

Bressal's eyes fluttered slowly open, as she emerged into wakefullness.

She felt pleasantly warm and comfortably, content, although she didn't remember why....

Emeaditly

great post, princess...more soon please?

-JSD

 

Awesome post Princess1!

Splendid writing on the flashback scene from Alema's capture by the Yuuzhan vong, very detailed yet with good pace. Nicely done! (Poor Alema though! Who'd hurt a pretty, innocent Twi'lek? ) I liked how Kyp and Jaina intereacted now that he had uncovered those facts, no unnecessary explanations but actions and true to life conversation.
I fear for poor Ganner though, Bressal isn't going to do anything regrettable, is she?

Looking forward to the rest!

 

Thanks so much everyone, more soon,tomarrow for sure, but maybe tonight, if I have the time after getting my homework done.

 

j/k part- freaky

g/b part- things do not look good for them.

Jez

 

UP with ya now!!

 

Sara: Thanks!

Trickster Jaina Fel: Thanks. I agree, poor Alema, I'm glad I'm not her! As for what would happen to Ganner, we'll see....


queen: thanks, mores comming!

Shadow: Thanks. We can always hope, but its Bressal, so you never know.

Jaina Solo Durron: Eeek! I agree. Don't worry Jaina and Kyp will be fine, its not them thats in danger right now, at least not yet.

AnotherAgentSmith: Thanks! I'm glad the flash back scene worked well, since nothing drives me more crazy then a badly written flash back, it can get so confusing!, Yea, those vong certainly aren't very nice are they? (lol, thats the understatement of the century!)

Jez: Thanks. Yeah, that was kinda weird with k/j huh? Kyp was like feeling everything that Alema was when he was in the flashback. Yea, things aren't looking good for Ganner and Bressal are they?

HanSolo: Thanks.

Ganner slowly opened his eye's, yawning sleeply.

Then he remembered. Bressal.

A lazy smile spread over his face. Ahh yes, he remembered all right.

He turned over, planning to smile at Bressal and say something, one of those things women always wanted to hear.

But when he turned over and didn't see her, only the indentation in the sheets where she had been, his smile faded.

Where was she?

He sat up in the bed, the sheet sliding down revealing his broad muscled shoulders.

Then his eyes found Bressal.

She was sitting on the edge of the bed, watching him.

He gave her a rougish grin. "Good morning gorgeous."

She didn't crack a smile. "Good morning."

What was the matter with her?

He gave her a searching look. "Something wrong?"

She didn't answer, but looked at him her hazel eyes pearcing.

Ganner fidgeted a little bit, the intensity of her gaze was a bit unnerving.

When she spoke, her words were measured and slow, like she had thought out whatever she was going to say very carefully, but still wasen't quite sure how to say it.

"Ganner....do you hate me?"

What?! Ganner wondered, not understanding why she would ask such a thing? "Of course I don't, did I act like I did?" he winked at her, smiling, trying to deafuse the situation a bit.

It didn't work, she only shook her head irritably and said,"No, Ganner, I'm serious. Do you hate me?"

Suddenly Ganner realized something. She meant it. She truely, honestly wanted to know.

He shook his head slowly, searching his own feelings, pushing past his obvious feeling of attraction for her, to attempt to find how he really felt.

No, he didn't hate her. Although everything said he should, she'd kidnapped him and Anakin, she had chained him up, she was a member of the peace brigade....Everything. He had all to many reason's to hate her. Yet he didn't, despite all that, he didn't. Actualy, he didn't quite know what he really did feel about her, but not hate, most definitly not hate.

"No,Bressal,"he said finnaly, his gaze raising to meet hers unflinchingly,"I don't hate you."

She held his gaze for a moment, staring at him, as if searching, waiting for him to flinch. When he didn't she sighed a deep weary sigh, and ran her fingers through her tousled red curls. "Good."

Then she stood up abrubtly and strode out of the room.

Ganner watched her go, utterly mystified and feeling somehow that something huge had happend, but he didn't know what.


****


Bressal strode away from the bedroom and Ganner, feeling slightly shaken, but resolved.

She went over to the control panel, and stared at the blinking light telling her she still had to reply to the message.

She took a deep breath and tilted her head up at the ceiling for a moment, her eyes closed.

Then she opened them again, looking down at the control panel. Then swiftly pushed down on a little read button. The button was labeled, "delete". The light blinked out.

Well, it was done. She didn't know exactly what she had done, why she had done it, or what the consequeses would be, but it was done.

She just have see how things turned out.
