She slammed the last of the automated defense turrets into the ground, using images of the Imperial stormtroopers and battledroids, with a connection to her main blaster that could hone the collective firepower of all the units should she need to concentrate them on something else, something bigger. Nico pulled a pad from her pocket, the battlecruiser she had detected from space was still far, out of range, but it was closing fast. They had maybe fifteen minutes before it arrived in full force. That was game over.

"Cover me!" Morgan shouted, but Nico ignored the command completely, and was tempted to add his image into the turret's target-screen. But killing him here would only bring unnecessary warrant for distrust, something the Solos lacked for her now. Her reputation in the galaxy had been skewered by holo news agencies, including one of the most popular, owned and operated directly by Alatáriël Pallanén-Davad. In the group, she had carried her true self across the media-divide, some actually trusted her, and that was much more valuable than deactivating the cyborg. Well, almost.

She rolled hard against the ground, removing the ion blaster as she came about to blast one of the closing battledroids. Another forward tumble and she was ontop of the downed droid, putting another blast to its head, before running towards Tseneca's position. Rylii was working on the gunner, but his targets were some of the bigger units closing in on their position.

"We could use your ship right about now. Is he taking a leisurely stroll, smelling the roses? What's taking him so long?" She said between the blasts, watching Morgan return to the group. "Damn," she said loud enough so he could hear, "I didn't think you'd actually make it." Her snide mark was cut off, another invisible surge surrounding her body as the group was forced apart, flying in many different directions. She picked herself up, "Will you just tell us to jump, dodge, or run??"

Lucas was covering the younger man, Jonas, when he looked over. "Not enough time, besides, you need to be tossed around a bit. Keeps you agitated. And we need that right now." Nico scoffed, watching the young redheaded Jedi deliver a powerful strike to a couple of droids. Silence followed, but her gut churned.

They weren't out of the woods yet...

It took Sethe almost twenty minutes, in the opposite direction of the assault, to follow the coordinates SAMM had given him and locate the Leaper.

As it was, the ship was well hidden from above by an outcropping of trees. He ran up the gangplank even as it lowered for him.

Not who I was expecting...

"Get her going SAMM, we dont have time for talk." He jogged up the way to the cockpit and slid into Tseneca's chair. He heard the engines start and made sure the ship lifted off in a way that wouldn't draw too much attention from above. He needn't have worried about that.

He sucked in his breath. From the elevation The Leaper was gaining, Sethe could make out the deadly elegant shape of a battle cruiser, flanked by smaller fighters had entered atmo and were bearing down on where he knew the others were camped out with two dead ships. This was becoming something unlike the bust-and-run he's thought it was going to turn out to be. This was a full-force assault. The Imps were after something, and they weren't leaving till they got what they needed. They'd take an entire planet out if it came to it.

"Frakking Solo." He hissed and swiveled the seat away, launching himself toward the quad laser access corridor. He slid down the ladder, his feet never touching the rungs, and hefted himself into a chair, strapping in and pulling the headset on.

You're going to want to hear this...

"Put it through." From the inside of the unit came the eerie voice of a woman, slithery and firm: 'Han Solo and Tseneca Lowry-Fink. Leave Lucas Pallanen-Davad alive. Kill the rest.'

Sethe felt his blood run cold, had to remember to breathe. Tseneca. Why would they want... "Where did that come from?"

It was transmitted to three separate comm units, I cant be certain which...

"Then try harder." Sethe snapped, then. "belay that. Just... just get there."
If someone was trying to take Solo and Tseneca, knowing who wasn't going to help. He needed to get back. and fast.

What nerve, she thought as she sat on the familiar bunk. He had changed their destiny with a simple action: perhaps a push of a paper, or the shake of the head, or a tear across a contract. Yet for all his action, all his decisiveness in the business context, he hadn't had the courage to even approach his wife about his sudden change of heart.

Leia would be lying to herself if she maintained she was angry with Han only because his decision had been made without her. She was infuriated not only by his flipflopping and his lack of care for his wife's opinion; she also hated the route he had now chosen for the family. Nothing good could come of the decision to keep Solo Enterprises under Han's ownership. The Galaxy was falling apart—a shipping company couldn't hold it together. Not only was the Galaxy unraveling under Zend's imposition, but their family was likewise crumbling. Leia still hadn't seen Jaina since her husband's death out of fear of bringing unwelcome attention to her daughter—and, perhaps more importantly, because the Empire was being rightfully protective of the wife of their deceased leader.

In Leia's eyes, not only had Han betrayed her, but he'd betrayed their family. No one else would want to buy the company now, but that was the least of her concerns. The other worries lurked in the back of her mind, not ready to reveal themselves to her yet.

New battlecruisers dropped from hyperspace to join their ranks after detecting a transmission that had been sent to Coruscant. Commander Selena Krauss walked the long deck of her command, choosing to stop at random officer panels, something she did to pass the time and to keep them on their feet, before stopping short of the mysterious woman proclaiming herself to be not only a rogue Force user, but the last of the Sith Masters. This was a considerable find, one that had woven itself into the True Empire, but liking it or not, Selena conceded her presence would be tolerated until the Jedi's infestation of the galaxy had be eradicated.

"I'm losing a lot of units," Krauss said, a little annoyed by the 'progress' her troops were making. "Why must Han Solo be taken alive?"

The woman turned slowly, as though calculating what was best to hear, "The Jedi Order is led by a man, Luke Skywalker," Krauss knew the name, the entire True Empire understood the dangerous capabilities of this figure, almost solely responsible for their late Emperor's death and the collapse the True Galactic Empire, that was, before Zend rescued it from the clutches of fools like self-proclaimed Emperor Jendob. "Skywalker values Han Solo's life, and if we twist and torment this friend, we will stir the nest he has so carefully built over the years. I would not doubt that his own family rushes to aide him..."

Krauss, "And shoot them down, we will!"

"No, no." The dark woman approached, if it weren't for her charisma, Krauss might've had her deported for the Unknown Regions to fare on Eriga Nu. "They are much too valuable alive. The Jedi Order is on the brink of fracture. When their leader becomes indecisive, or better yet, chooses a way less popular than the rest of the council, we will see a shift. Their numbers will dwindle and the easier it will become to eliminate the sect entirely."

Krauss laughed, if only it could be so simple as the words chosen to explain her plot. "Perhaps. You will have 48 hours with Han Solo." She returned to the viewscreen, watching the numbers of her units slowly tick downwards. It was difficult to practice restraint, but if the end goal brought the destruction of the New Jedi Order, it had to be done.

The Sith could play with the Solo family, that was fine, but woman who identified with Fink's last name was a curious-pleasure. Emmett had been a rival in the ranks for many years, since his young adulthood. He had caused many painstaking criticisms, so many lighthearted decisions that set back invasions, interrogations, but most importantly, progress. The Empire could've expanded much more rapidly had his soft heart not gotten in the way, not only swooning glory from Zend, but agitating her in the process.

Krauss looked to a battle droid she had specially programmed, it was designed to search out the Thyferran born woman and return her to the battleship. Was she a relative? Or, better yet, perhaps a long-lost lover? A cruel smile spread across her lips as she recoiled the joy, placing it back in her soul. It would have to wait. Three troopers had died and four battledroids were turned into scrap, but after glancing at the bacta tycoon, it was suddenly worth it.

"Come out, come out, where-ever you are..." She whispered, watching the battledroid enter the battlefield.

The ground rumbled and the planet was essentially blowing up around them as the Empire bombed the surface from above and in the end, Han plain just didn't care. His mind was a violent torrent of emotions after his disagreement with Leia and despite attempting to lift the Falcon off the ground after running a diagnostic, those emotions continued to drive him into inaction.

He sat, now, slumped forward in the pilot's chair, staring blankly at the control console as he acted as if he knew what he was doing and what was going on. He was unsure of either and most importantly, he was unsure of himself. He had been taken as a fool for agreeing to the kid's motives if he turned out to be a fake. He had come to the slow realization that staying on as the company head at Solo Enterprises wasn't what he needed for happiness. Leia had realized it long ago and now it just may be too late...

That's why when Kalin finally showed himself in the cockpit, Han curled his hand into a fist and pounded it against the control console as he swiveled around to face him. He was through playing games and he wasn't about to let the kid's 'false' reports fool him this time.

"Who authorized you to run diagnostics on the engine room?" he questioned darkly, simply ignoring the datapad containing the readouts in the kid's proffered hand. "In fact, why were you even in the engine room in the first place? There was nothing wrong with the damn engines..."

He began to rise from his chair, slowly, menacingly..."I think you and me need to have a long talk..."

Their defense could have only lasted so long, but it was beginning to make more sense when Jonas revealed they were out to capture not only the legendary Han Solo, but lesser-known Tseneca. He felt a surge in his body, letting out a Force-blast that tossed nearby stormtroopers over a hundred feet, their necks snapping midflight, all landing in contorted positions. He knew something was at work here, something beyond their control, a presence that was familiar from both the moon of Orakle's home and in the underworld of Necropolis.

"Jonas, how do you know this?" Lucas asked, peeved this was just coming out now.

"I overheard it, in the woods. I was sort of... low on the ground." A blast singed past his shoulder, leaving a burned mark because of the proximity of the shot. Using a nearby branch, Lucas sent the piece of wood into the soldier's left eye socket with a flick of his arm, before examining the wound closer. They had been in situations, but the Empire was out to capture or kill those he loved most, and he couldn't keep this up forever. He scooped up a defensive position next to Tseneca, eyeing her carefully.

"Lucas, don't do that."

"Do what?" He fired back.

"You know." She was annoyed, but he thought he could sense a bit of tension, maybe fear in the undertone. He nodded, looking away and into the forest tree line. "This is it." She said, a little perplexed at what the Force was revealing to them. Lucas saw it too, a surge of an unbelievable force, one which, if they survived, would live up to the stories of the Jedi in the Old Republic.

Imperial fighters engaged overhead, it was probable the Fury had entered combat now, but judging by the awesome might of the incoming battlecruiser, their time here was limited. The Force begged them to retreat, pulling on all their senses to flee and regroup elsewhere, outside of the holed up position they kept themselves in. Lucas reached over and interlocked his hands with Tseneca, raising his lightsaber over their collective bodies. It was a momento of both faith and trust, he'd see this through with her, to whatever means.

Droids appeared by the dozens, their hands extended and red surging towards them. "This is suicide." Jonas breathed, "Solo needs to leave his frakkin' ship behind."

The ground shook as charges Nico had dropped began to go off, sending the droid line into temporary chaos. Nico emerged wielding double blasters, putting down whatever stood after the long blast. "Jonas, get in there, and tell that frakkin' Corellian to repair the outer hyperdrive exhast coil." She pointed, and sure enough it looked disconnected, something that is usually only blown from the inside. What the hell was going on in there?! Jonas left their ranks as Sara, Lucas and Tseneca backed his retreat into the Falcon's plank. "Sara, go!" Lucas said, it was better so if Han or Jonas had to come back out, he'd have a lightsaber ready. She nodded and trotted inside, disengaging her lightsaber as she disappeared around the corner.

Suddenly the rumbling they had detected earlier finally revealed itself. For the True Empire, it was pure glory. A droid with many different legs, reminding him of a Acka spider back home, double the size of a regular AT-AT with razor sharp legs. Trees snapped and buckled under the awesome weight of this behemoth devil, as massive bits of red energy began to eliminate Nico's turret stations one by one.

While the giant droid emerged, precision-wires shot forth, wrapping themselves around Tseneca first, then Lucas, then Nico, then Morgan, flinging them about like ragdolls. "Lucas-" Either Nico or Tseneca said, but he was one step ahead of them, tossing his lightsaber, using the Force to curve its way and slice the wires. Nico and Morgan went in one direction, as Lucas and Tseneca went in another. He rolled against the hard forest floor, spinning his body to send a small Force-bubble around Tseneca and gently drop her to the ground. His thoughts were on the unborn child now. He looked around and realized they were quite a distance from where the Khan and Falcon had landed.

They weren't far, but the amount of troops between them and the group... made this much more difficult. Lucas reached in his pocket, only his communication pad was missing. It must've fallen when they were strung up. Tseneca reached for hers, only to find it had shattered.

"Great," she said, "I'd think I'd rather take the rancor pit-"

Three shots fired over her head, forcing them to duck and roll down a slanted portion of the forest, putting them further from the ships. "This is not good." Lucas said, noticing the blaster fire was much more distant now. "Tseneca." He said, looking towards her, "I have a really bad feeling about this." He took a moment to ensure the child was safe, which it was, before he looked around.


Figured this would help everyone along. Let me know!

"I think you and me need to have a long talk..." Han was slowly rising out of his chair, his voice in a menacing, angered attack. Kalin immediately threw up his mental defenses as his entire body resisted the urge to blast him right here. While the man had a point, for all he knew, Kalin was actually piecing the ship together, trying to help them get off the ground, versus sitting in the cockpit having a little squall with the wife.

"Really, Han?" Kalin asked, trying to seem a little perplexed by what was happening. "You know, I'm a little sick of all the questions and raised eyebrows. I've been bustin' my ass since I first started at Solo Enterprises. You know for the longest time, I had been so wrapped up in my hero worship, that I never really saw how much of an ass you really are." Kalin tossed the rag he used to dry his hands, the same rag he used to bang up the engine, thus preventing them from successfully escaping. He watched it hit the ground, before raising his voice as some kind of explosion occurred outside.

"People are putting their lives at risk out there, just so you get this piece off shit of the ground." Kalin looked around dramatically, "Oh, but you're used of that, aren't you?" He knew he was out of line, but it didn't matter, for the brief seconds it was happening, Kalin was allowed to be himself, and let the hatred flow a bit. "You are one stubborn bastard, Han. Pft. Letting people use your first name like its some kind of damn gift." He hinted towards one of their conversations back at Solo Enterprises, Coruscant.

Kalin held out his arms, just waiting for something, anything, but mostly kept them in the vicinity for reaching for his blaster. He knew the Corellian liked to pull the trigger first, and ask questions later... as self-preserved as this was in Solo's position, it wasn't in Kalin's best interest to allow this to happen. He heard footsteps coming up the ramp, but waited for Han's response.

Tseneca and Lucas crawled up the embankment, under the cover of the brush, well away from the ship. The plated feet of troopers running the place aground before their noses made Tseneca's spine tingle. Or it was the force shield Lucas was deliberately and diligently covering her with.

"Lucas please." She hissed and felt him lift it reluctantly. " she edged backwards on her elbows trying to look for the others. "Where is everyone?"

Lucas shrugged. "No telling."

"Well we can't just lie here." She said. and started hoisting herself up. Lucas grabbed her arm and yanked hr back down.

"Don't be foolish." His eyes sparked. "We are at a huge disadvantage."

She made a face. "We dont have a choice." She was thinking of the others. The charges Nico had placed were long gone, and she could hear the spike of the Khan's guns burning through the foliage. There were, by a long shot, way too many men for them to fend off. Their best bet was to board the ships and break the blockade. Getting off the planet would save their lives, and keep Han safe.

and you. the thought made her sick. Why did they want her? Why? she felt herself rise a little off of her stomach as a reflex. She wasn't going to be taken, that was for sure.

She felt Lucas tug at her arm and the both crawled deeper into the brush, far enough away to where they could sneek back the the camp site. It was the MP she was worried about now, even as they approached and she could see the shiny, deadly metal of its body swivel to face them...

A cocksure smile was Han's only response to the kid's angry tirade. He had put him on the defensive, a reaction that only confirmed Han's suspicions that Kalin was up to something. The breakdown in the engine room hadn't happened by chance and Han was fairly confident he was currently staring down at the real problem. The kid had used his flattering words to trick him into betraying his family and now he was sabotaging his ship. Enough was enough.

"Don't like it?" Han asked darkly, stepping closer to force the kid back against the bulkhead. "Then quit. No one's forcing you to stay here. In fact, I don't want you anywhere near the control centers of my ship."

An explosion from outside rocked the freighter, causing Han to stumble briefly before he held out a hand to regain his balance. They were getting closer, which meant they were running out of time. A frown crossed his features as he returned his attention to Kalin. There was only one way to settle this and ensure they made it out of here alive.

"Actually, change of plans." Han reached out and roughly grabbed Kalin by the collar, dragging him, as he started to stomp down the access corridor with long strides. "You're coming with me. You did something to the engine and I'll be damned if I let you get away with it. You're going to point out to me exactly what you did and you're going to help me fix it. If you cooperate, maybe I'll reconsider placing a blaster bolt between your eyes."

Jonas breathed hard as he landed inside the Millennium Falcon after tripping on some of the loose wires. It didn't look it was anything essential, thank the gods, Jonas thought, half-believing he might've condemned repairs even further. A little deeper in the Falcon a voice growled, "If you cooperate, maybe I'll reconsider placing a blaster bolt between your eyes."

Jonas breathed slowly, looking to Sara who raised her lightsaber hilt as he took position with his blaster. Solo's assistant rounded the corner, holding up his hands, "Woah!" They lowered their weapons. Jonas looked to Rebellion hero, something stirred inside of him. For most of his life he had lived on a planet that rarely talked about the Old Republic, the Galactic Civil War wasn't in the public school texts (at least in great detail), but he was more well known than anyone in the galaxy, except, perhaps, Grand Admiral Zend, who had managed to hijack all galactic communications. A feat worthy of her inter-planetary fame, one that gained both respect and total fear. Nar Shadda may not have had the best history, but Han was legendary, and that presence carried into this moment.

"Mr-Captain Solo," Jonas let out, returning to the moment at hand. Who had he threatened to blast? "Nico noticed one of the outer coils was blown, probably caused from the inside."

Sara agreed, "I'd offer to help, but I think you're the only one that knows how to piece this thing back together." Jonas conceded to her line of thought. They'd try to cover him as best as possible, but it would be damn near impossible when that mega-droid's attention shifted towards them. Plus their knowledge of this kind of vessel was almost forgotten, some of the parts and inner workings were long phased out by modern shipyards. Jonas looked at the assistant, something wasn't right about him.

"Han," The man who identified himself as Kalin Lohden started to speak, "I think I know what happened. When I was attempting to relay power to the turret, I blew the engine coil on the outer hull. It should be an easy fix, but just requires one of us to go out there. I volunteer to do it myself."

Jonas didn't mind this, but knew the older man wouldn't go for it, at least, judging by the look he gave him....

Tseneca's chest filled with fear and she sprang away as the MP shot at them. She tuck-rolled back under the brush. Separated from Lucas, she made a systematic beeline back to camp, hoping he's dodged out of the way in time. She heard the violent swivel of the MP's platform and felt the ozone singe the heels of her boots, only steps away from each blaster bolt. She felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand up and she whirled around, igniting and lifting her lightsaber at the same time. The blade met with a stream of bolts aimed at her head, and she let the force guide her hand, deflecting them all.

She ran further, heading for the Khan, which she saw was shooting blindly at the MP which was shooting at her. She felt a slight wash of gratitude for Nico, whom she assumed was the one doing the shooting. Then, as if in some fantastic dream, the turret swiveled and began shooting again. this time at her.

"Sithspit!" She whirled to the side and backward as bolts from both sides collided where her torso previously was. She arced the lightsaber and pulled it forward, struggling to keep up with the onslaught. She felt her muscles tightening with the strain, looking around for back-up, where none could be found.

Without warning, she felt a burn and her left leg nearly gave out beneath her. She felt fire rip up from her ankle to her knee, thigh and hip as she struggled to maintain her balance. The turret on the Khan had managed a hit, and she fell into a roll away from the range of the blaster, closer to the ship itself.

She huddled against the stern hull, chancing a look at her leg. The ankle of her book was ripped clean through by a whole the size of a medallion. She could see the bloodied skin oozing through it. She was greatful the adrenaline blocked most of the pain that would catch up with her later. She gritted her teeth and limped over and around the back of the ship to where the gangplank stood partially open, and climbed through.

The inside of the Khan was quiet, compared to the din of the battle outside. She bolstered herself, shaking a lock of sweat-damp hair from her eyes and holding the crimson blade as an extension on her body. She didn't care what she had sworn on naboo, nor what strange provocations Lucas had, it was more than obvious now that Nico wanted her dead, and she'd gladly return the favor.

She moved swiftly and silently to the turret port, her headway unnoticed by the gunner. She stood before the door, seeing her hands flying over the controls like a mad person, her focus now on the MP, having lost her previous target.

She came up behind the chair and put its occupant in a stronghold, gripping her by her neck and keeping the saber's blade inches from her face.

"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't kill you." Tseneca said in a low voice.

The gunner placed her hands on Tseneca's arm and squeezed, then, with one swift movement, bent her legs backward under the chair and kicked Tseneca, hard in the ankle, causing her leg to give out and fall. The lightsaber disengaged and hit the turrett plating. The gunner whirled around and for the first time, Tseneca saw it wasn't a woman at all, wasn't Nico. It was Ryles Kuat.

"You." She hissed. She struggled to gain her footing, but Ryles slammed his boot hard on her ankle. She felt her body turn to fire as pain shot up from that singular wound to her entire self.

"Me." He said, his grin gleeful and conspiritorial in a way that made him look like some visage of a demon. He was only a child, really, but how could he...

He slammed his foot down again. This time she felt something in her ankle crunch and she gritted her teeth against the howl of pain that she refused to let escape her throat. Her lightsaber was out of reach, her resources disposed of. She tried to summon the power to push him but he placed his other foot, the one not holding her dead ankle against the plating on her chest. She felt her breath leave her. "So." He said, leaning over his knee and putting most of his weight upon her. She could feel his breath hot on her face. "What have you gotten yourself into now?"


Alex, let me know if I should change anything. I was going to let you take over here

Sara could feel, something, stirring in Jonas at the sight of Lohden. She definitely felt a jump from him when he noticed Han Solo. She certainly didn’t trust Lohden, and from what she was getting from Jonas he didn’t either. When Lohden volunteered to go repair the blown engine coil, the look Han’s face was saying didn’t make out that he trusted Lohden. She’d need to keep an eye on him… Besides, it’s practically a war zone outside, so it would make sense to-- “I’m going too.” Jonas shot a look at her. “He’s going to need cover out there.”

Sara pulled out her blaster and held a weapon in both hands. She was still rusty with redirecting blaster bolts with her lightsaber, this way she could give some of her own. She had wished Jonas and herself could talk in more peaceful circumstances, but that would have to wait until later. Sara looked to Han, “Which engine coil needs repair?”

The small escape of her broken breath was all he needed to know that she was in a great deal of pain. He spun around temporarily in order to reset the Khan's firing sequences to automatic, before he felt the Force clamp around his body, constricting his ribs, tossing him backwards and against the wall of the cockpit. Rylii gasped, trying to extend his hand, but the invisible energy kept him frozen in place. He wrapped his fingers around the hilt of a blaster, but the bones broke and shattered. He called out, as Tseneca rose saying, "That's pain, and you have no idea-" He swiveled and kicked her in the jaw, the Force energy dissipated instantly and he drew long breaths, reflexively bringing his broken hand close and towards his body.

"Frakkin' Kulla," Rylii swore, using his own language to vent a portion of the rage building up. He wanted to reach over and blast her all over the Khan's floors, but Lumiya had demanded she be left alive. The plan had changed, and he needed to accept that. "I should've killed you on Bespin."

"So it was you," She spat, bringing herself upwards, barely able to stand with the amount of wounds she was beginning to accumulate.

"No shit," Rylii fired back, "You know for a moment, I was beginning to have second thoughts about killing a pregnant woman." He still was. On Kuat, this was the ultimate evil, and though Lumiya had repressed all this, encouraged his actions for the betterment of the galaxy through her Sith Order, restoring a true government where divisions were not drawn up by the Remnant or the Republic... Rylii was almost lost in this mental tangent, had it not been for the Force-shove that sent him into the freshly added mainscreen viewer. It cracked under his weight as she pressed him in more and more. He could feel the shards cutting into his back.

"Don't you even think about that, you worthless sithshit." The Jedi curse caused him to laugh, she was unaware of how correct she actually was, and in the same twist of fate, a console overloaded and sparked close enough to distract the Thyferran woman. He dropped hard against the floor, but rolled to collect the blaster. He fired a couple of shots, but she had already disappeared down the plank.

"Frak." He said out loud, chasing after her. He used the blaster to guide her away from a straight shot to the Falcon." She was now skirting the outside of the Khan, positioning herself away from the massive spider-droid, an object that, if not under orders, would've vaporized them by now. Rylii came about and around the corner, Tseneca had removed a piece of a hanging hull and smacked him against the face. He landed hard, spitting blood as he came around. In reaction, he had swiped her legs, her body landing in an oddly twisted condition that might've dislocated some of her left fingers. "I really don't like you." He said, picking up the same chunk of hull and stood over her head.

"Well frak you," She spat, blood was running through her teeth as the Force adjusted the hull fragment sending it into his torso. He connected with the Khan, gasping as the chunk began to squeeze the remnants of life out of his body. Trying to suck the last breath, red blaster bolts erupted over their position, forcing Tseneca to retreat into a body roll. She reached for a blaster, most likely dropped by a droid or stormtrooper, but Rylii lunged to collect it from her.

They wrestled to the ground, but a swift kick to the bleeding knee sent her out of commission. Her swiveled the blaster in his right hand, keeping the broken fingers close to his chest as he dropped the tip of the weapon to her belly. "Game over, Tseneca."

"You're nothing above rancor shit, you know that? We trusted you, and you are threatening my child?!"

"Careful, Mesh'la, too much anger, and you might Force-push me, and trigger...well... the trigger." He tried to say coolly, but that had evaporated in-between their breaths, they didn't need theatrics, "Speaking of Sethe... you know Lucas beat him up pretty bad, right? He didn't just wake up with those bruises." He let that sink in for a bit, before adding, "Seems like your Godfather has a bit of a temper." Rylii shook his head, "Oh well. There won't really be anyone for this baby any ways. No one wil love it. You might give birth, and it'll be shipped out to a prison camp."

She was shaking under this, but held her composure as the droids swamped their position. One of them was marked with Krauss, watching as they wrapped special energy cuffs around her ankles and wrists, disrupting her connection to the Force. He leaned in close, "Tseneca," He whispered in a slow drawl, "I'm going to shoot Sethe between the eyes and feed his corpse to starving maggots."

She mumbled something, but the cloth around her lips prevented it from being entirely audible. He rose and kissed her forehead, maintaining the symbol, until the droids carried her off...

One down. One to go.

Footsteps resounded from the lowered landing ramp, causing Han to shrink back against the bulkhead as his hand tightened about Kalin's collar, pulling the fabric in such a way that if the kid even tried to move, he would choke. But even if he did, that was the least of his concerns. The two figures approaching from the far end of the access corridor were taking his top priority. His free hand reflexively lowered to the blaster that was tied down to his thigh, his gaze intense and focused ahead. "These better not be more of your friends..." he muttered under his breath.

That's when the figures stepped into the flickering light of the corridor, revealing a young man and a woman. He recognized the girl from earlier, the same one who had offered her assistance with repairing the Falcon. The other, however, he didn't know and that was the one who took it upon himself to explain the situation. Apparently an outer relay coil had been severed during the brief encounter with the Empire and now needed to be replaced. Perfect. That didn't just mean more repairs - it meant venturing outside and dodging blaster bolts in order to do so.

Before he could express his anger and concern with the situation, Kalin squirmed within his grip, quickly pointing out a cause for the problem before volunteering himself to fix it.

Han sneered, shaking him briefly as if to shake some sense into his head. "You?" he scoffed, shaking his head in disbelief. "I don't think so, pal. I'm going out there to make sure it's done right. But don't think you're getting away so easily. You're staying right where I can keep my eye on you."

Releasing the kid's collar, Han gave him a sharp shove between the shoulder blades. "Get moving," he ordered, angling them both towards the lowered ramp. As he passed the two Jedi, he nodded to them both before personally acknowledging Sara. "I dunno yet," he admitted with some regret. "I'm only going off of what this scumbag told me. I'm hoping it's a simple fix, but I guess we'll soon find out."

He gave the kid another shove to force him down the ramp before stomping down behind him.

Tseneca gasped, trying to catch her breath as Ryles planted his lips on her forehead. He gave her a dispicable little wink as the droids dragged her away, hogtied and gagged.

A good two minutes later they dumped her in the dirt. She squirmed trying to gain ground, struggling against the bindings and the horrible pain that ricocheted throughout her body. Knowing she would not escape, she took a toll of her wounds. The fore and middle finger on her left hand were broken, her chest ached and she knew she must have cracked a rib somewhere. Her leg, specifically her ankle had been shot and crushed. She was lucky she didn't have to worry about bleeding to death, as the blasterbolt must have cauterized the wound on contact. She only hoped she had injured that little bastard just as badly.

She rolled onto her back, and glimpsed the droid that approached her now. It was large, a model she's never seen before, and with almost deft reflexes it opened a compartment in its chest revealing a carriage barely large enough for an average sized man.

She bit against her gag as the thing lifted her none too gently with its mandibles, nearly tossing her into its maw. She struggled against it but it was little use, as it threw her inside and shut the carriage door. She was plunged into darkness.

She screamed against her gag, mostly out of frustration, but also out of the horrendous pain she was in. She kicked wildly, but the tiny cell was only big enough for her to stretch with bended knees and back, in some wierd stooping position. Her leg burned where she struck it against the side of the droid. . She kicked again, and the droid, as if in retaliation, sent a massive shock wave of electricity through the carriage and into her body. She bucked in pain and screamed through the cloth, this time for real. When it stopped, she slumped against the walls of the carriage, her eyes wet with unshed tears.

God, what had gone wrong. She replayed the entire event in her mind. Ryles Kuat. She'd known it the moment she'd spoken to him on Bespin. He had played all of them, none more than both Lucas and Jonas. It had been him that had pulled the plug on her then, and he had just been waiting to do it again. He'd sold them out.

She banged her head against the wall in frustration. How could she have been so frakking stupid. And Sethe. He'd threatened to kill Sethe. She struggled to remind herself he had no reason to, that he was all talk and little action. He would return to camp, he'd tell Lucas some lie that involved him trying to save her but failed. He'd play at their sympathies and no-one would know until it was too late.

She focused her mind, trying desperately to call out with the force. To Kyp, Lucas or Sara... anyone. But her shackles were made for that. the binders sent a stream of energy up her arms and legs even as she tried to let the power flow through her. She winced and let her mind go blank. She had to think. It was a matter of life and death. and her baby.

She nudged her stomach with her elbow. She was only four weeks pregnant, by her guess. As a result there were no outward signs of her pregnancy. She was still as fit as she'd always been, if not a little more substantial in the necessary places. Hers stomach was relatively flat considering her age, and she was well muscled and healthy. There was no reason, if Ryles hadn't said anything, that her captors would know. She could use that to her advantage. She wouldn't offer Emmett's child for ransom or slaughter, that was for certain. As for herself, she was more resourceful than she looked. She could get through this. She had to.

She felt the droid amble, swaying her in its innards and felt her body tense with the rocking motion. She could only guess where it was taking her. She could only hope she would survive.

The spider-legged machine took to shooting toward the edge of the clearing, Sethe saw who it was shooting at, Lucas Pallanen-Davas and hit it with the Leapers full gunning force. He watched as the lasers bit into the side of the things head. It bucked and wobbled before striking the ground and bursting into flame. He let out a whoop and lowered the ganglplank enough for Lucas to jump in.

"Good timing." The kid jogged to the cockpit and took a seat next to him.

"As always."

Sethe set the Blight Leaper with little effort near the Kahn, using the gun as a main source of defense. He took out as many troops as he could that were bottling out of the woods like a hive of insects.

"Its worse further on." He told Lucas. "There's a cruiser..."

"I know, I know." Lucas interrupted, and ejected himself out of the chair and back out of the ship. "keep the ship handy, I'm not sure how we're going to handle this."

"Whats there to handle?" Sethe was incredulous. "We board the ship and leave!"

"Its not that simple" Lucas said impatiently.

"Of course it is! If we--" He was interrupted by a movement near the Kahn as they exited the ship. The shooting was focused toward the right of camp, and there was a break in the din. Ryles came stumbling out, cradling his arm and stumbling, dazed. Lucas grabbed a hold of him, supporting his weight. "Rylii... what--"

"The MP." He said "and then the battle droids--"

Lucas paused, and his eyes found Sethes in the same instant.

"Ryles, where's Tseneca?" Lucas forced the other young man to look at him. The boy glazed over, his mind seeming to move out of focus. Lucas shook him roughly. "Ryles!"

"G-gone." The boy whispered. He lifted a hand, pushing it toward Lucas weakly, pressing it to him. In it glittered a metal cylinder. Tseneca's lightsaber.

No. Sethe felt his heart stop, he felt dizzy. He put his hand on the the frame of the Leapers entry way, and the other on the hilt of his blaster. The shooting, the assault seemed to come to a grinding halt. No.

Lucas' eyes fluttered shut. He listened, even as the steady flow of troops to the outside of the clearing got louder, the hum of the cruiser and the ships surrounding it. The swelling of the battle pulsed, Sethe could almost feel it through him as he searched for her. Lucas' eyes opened. he shook his head solemnly. He'd felt nothing.

Gone. She was gone. He felt his rage and horror spike, even despite the sedative. There wasn't time to mourn or form a plan. He saw Lucas clip the second saber to his belt and support Ryles on board the Leaper, to the sickbay corridor. After a moment, he came back out, looking more focused and determined. He looked at Sethe.

"Still want to leave?" His voice was cold.

Sethe clenched his fists. Not hardly. This jedi-boy was taunting him, even now.

There was a bang, and a yell. They broke each other's stone-cold gaze with a snap as a charge landed three feet from the foot of the ship, causing a huge explosion that knocked them both off their feet. That was a hefty reminder. There was a war to be won.

Tarison’s shuttle soared over the forests of Bakura, towards the engagement zone with Solo in it. He could see the smoke from here, feeling the lives of Stormtroopers wink out, feeling the forest’s root shake as a large machine fell to the ground. He felt strong beings in The Force here, Jedi. Lucas, Sara, Tseneca and others. Then one stuck out. Denora. Another council member was here? Interesting. He felt Tseneca’s presence getting further away, and a com-blip from Kuat confirmed that she had been captured. Deceitful that boy was. He had his uses, but paled in comparison to himself or Lumiya. Though he hated that tramp with all his will, he knew his fate was coming soon enough. And Lumiya would give him the honor of completing Kuat’s duties to her.

The shuttle was nearing the engagement zone, and with the activity in the area, a wing of TIEs were sweeping in on him. Their sensors still showed him as invisible, but they could see the shuttle as plain as day. It worked in space and in crowded skylanes. Tarison sighed and activated his beacon, simply a repeating message that said: I Am A Servant. Contact your superiors. It was a universal signal, one only activated when Lumiya had informed someone of her involvement, which was rare. The Imperial Pilots will, as expected, contact their superiors and query for information. In his time he had come to expect two outcomes: They followed the chain of command until their query was answered by one informed by Lumiya. Or it bought him enough time to complete his goals.

Today it was the former. They veered away from Var and continued towards the engagement zone.

He flew over the crash site, his shuttle set to fly in a circle automatically. He moved through the compartments of the ship and went to the boarding ramp. The ramp opened and a rush of fresh air swept in. He looked downwards on the site, three crashed ships were in the area, as well as the wrecks and bodies of Imperial equipment and Stormtroopers. He was a hundred feet high and leapt towards the ground.

Using the Force to slow himself down, he slowly touched down on his feet in front of three humans. Two of whom he recognized. Rylii Kuat. And Lucas Pallanen-Davad. It was apparent there was an explosion, and they were several feet apart from each other. The smoldering crater in front of one of the ships was also clear evidence of this. He pulled his lightsaber out with a gesture, and said towards Lucas. “My quarrel isn’t with you, Davad. Step aside, or suffer.” And his lightsaber ignited in a blood red wash of light.

Lucas felt the ship rock as the explosion hit, knocking them around and off the precarious center they were attempting to build. A center that would support the loss of Tseneca, Lucas couldn't sense if she was alive, but he would've sensed if she was dead. Then there was something else. If matters weren't bad enough for them, a presence was suddenly making itself known, or maybe, Lucas was beginning to listen for it. He picked himself up and followed Sethe into the Leaper. He couldn't believe the man was about to not only flee, but use her ship to do it. The ramp doors shut as he begun to adjust the turret fire and check the engine status. "Sethe, open the ramp doors. We have to go back out there, and look for her."

"Lucas, we have to go." He was beginning to sound like a broken protocol droid.

"There is something out there, I need to see what it is." His mind raced, it wasn't identical to the feeling on Necropolis or Rae, but it was close... close enough.

"Lucas, I understand what you are feeling right now, whether you believe me or not, I care for her just as much as you. That's my best friend's- my-" He was trying to say something, but skipped the point, "We need to get out of here, regroup.... we are just sitting ducks. That MP out there, its playing nice."

Lucas thought about that for a moment, what was the droid waiting for? His mind raced, "Solo." He said, "It is waiting to collect Han Solo!" Adrenaline pushed through his veins, 'Let me out of here Sethe, I can manage whatever comes my way. It could have something to do with Tseneca." Still the man refused, repeating the same line of thought. Live to fight another day. "I don't have to ask you." Lucas took a step forward, ready to take control, before a familiar voice rang in the corridor.

"Go. Save her."

Lucas shoved Sethe, and ran. As he made his way through the ship, Rylii stepped out, with minimal bacta bandages and a small sling for his hand, but it all looked makeshift. "Lucas, don't go out there!" He said, almost desperately, "Please. You need to stay here." He couldn't believe what he was hearing. Had everyone gone completely mad?!

"Get back in there!" He pointed off to sickbay, but he didn't have the time to squabble, running towards the opening of the ship. Rylii followed him, their feet connecting with the forest dirt. The majority of the droid presence had diminished, retreating back into the forest. Overhead troop transports sailed overhead, most likely to land and collect what was left.

Being born on an Imperial world and having studied war tactics and theory, it was likely this entire forest was about to be bombarded. It would be the only way to secure the lost units and technology, and decimate any kind of resistance their forces missed. He looked towards Han Solo who had stepped onto the top of the Millennium Falcon... He hadn't seen how Lucas, Tseneca, Nico and Morgan were snatched.

"Han!" He tried to call out, then noticed a lightsaber collecting blaster bolts, then another figure blast an advancing trooper. "Sara! Jonas!" Just as they might've heard, an explosion sent Ryles and Lucas to the ground. Black boots and a long dark attire stood in front of him, with bright yellow eyes. “My quarrel isn’t with you, Davad. Step aside, or suffer.” And his lightsaber ignited in red.

His senses surged, everything the Jedi Order had taught him was screaming this was bad, real bad. This man was dangerous, his ideology aligned with ancient and dark forces, real or not, it had to be taken seriously. Lucas rose to the occasion and greeted the man, "Scumbag 101, if you wish to make your intentions appear benign, choose a different color." He ignited his blue saber, connecting it with the man.

Suddenly the massive spider-droid came to life, its mechanics roaring in an awesome display of might and power as it tumbled towards the Falcon. Sethe emerged out of the Blight Leaper, it seemed his cowardice finally slithered away, forcing Lucas to nod in Han's direction. The droid was about to take him...

"Solo," Lucas called out, distracted by the scene of events, the red saber was almost allowed to make contact with his shoulder, but he ignited Tseneca's blade. He made a soft word of gratitude towards the woman, before engaging the red-blade wielder with more ferocity.

This was the challenge he was looking for. Clearly Lumiya had chosen wisely when she chose to seduce Davad to their side. He hadn’t found a challenge with Durron, perhaps he was caught off guard with seeing a former comrade. But Davad, he fought with great skill, though Tarison didn’t have fear of defeat from the boy, he still had a lot to learn.

Parrying a blow, Tarison pushed the boy away in the direction of a tree with a gesture, with luck it’d daze him long enough for Var to snatch Lumiya’s grand prize. Lucas twirled in the air, a subtle curse escaping his lips before he made contact. The tree quickly split in half with a slash of his lightsaber and a push with The Force. Lucas landed several feet away from the tree, and Tarison carefully sidestepped away from the falling tree.

“Benign?” Tarison asked. “I’ve long forgotten that word. For I am Lord Var. A Sith Lord.” He began to step towards him, “I was ordered not to intervene with the Jedi.” He didn’t want to hint the boy with Lumiya’s plan. “But, a severed limb or an electrocuted body is a price to pay for secrecy.”

He called upon a dark technique, an improved speed effect, far faster with the power of The Dark Side. And in two instants he was in front of Davad as if he were lighting, and lighting followed from the tips of his fingers, catching him in the arm and throwing him off balance.

“Is that benign to you, boy? What about this?” He grabbed the boy with an invisible fist and lifted him high into the air. Hearing his choked whelps made Var smile with glee, and a laugh erupted from his lungs. “You are a weakling, Davad. You were foolish to follow the path of the Jedi. Maybe as a Sith, you could have lasted longer--”

“FRAK YOU!” Lucas yelled hoarsely, stretching out his hand calling on The Force to push Tarison away, making him lose concentration long enough for Lucas to make his escape from Var’s grasp.

Var recovered, to see Lucas standing where he had dropped in defiance. “Insolent child.” Var spat. “I was going to offer you safety in unconsciousness, now you will suffer greatly.”

Tarison placed his lightsaber back on his belt and stretched out both hands and let lighting shoot towards the boy. Perhaps that will teach him to stay down like the apprentice he will soon become.

Tag: Alex How's that for Part 0.5 of the Lucas/Var battle, Alex? Also, waiting for a Jonas post to post with Sara, which I'll post with her tomorrow.

Blue energy left the Sith's hands, hitting Lucas hard. Rylii watched the fellow Kuati squirm, Var's low growl of joy escaping as the energy began to build up. Sethe was beelining his way to the Falcon to warn Solo of the droid, but he wasn't aware of its cable-snatching abilities either. Rylii hoped the man died in the firefight, saving him the trouble of carrying out his promise to Tseneca.

Still the boy's anguish was more than enough, and Rylii could sense it was getting out of hand. "Var, I think that's enough." He said, rising to the occasion. Still, the Sith ignored him. Rylii called out again, "Lord Var, enough." Rylii retrieved the blaster, ironically, some of Tseneca's blood was over the hilt from their skirmish. He aimed at the man's head and fired rapidly, hoping to end one of Lumiya's most useful agents, thus advancing him up the list of her favorites.

Unfortunately, he brought his saber up, the crimson ignited energy-blade collecting and sending the bolts back towards him. "Kuat!" The man hissed, Rylii fell backwards, kicking his feet to flee the advancing menace, staring straight into the yellow eyes. "You little-" He was forced to send a protective bubble around his body as the energy turret from the Khan started to spray wild, almost chaotic bursts. Rylii skirted around, dodging the blasts long enough to reach Lucas.

"Lucas," He whispered, before slapping the Jedi awake. He was extremely warm, his clothes smoking from the amount of energy, some portions of his skin had been fried. Lumiya would not be pleased, but at least he was alive. "Come on, we have to go. If they've taken Tseneca, she's not going to be here. They've taken her to a camp or to the ships in the blockade."

Lucas groaned, Rylii facing Var. It only took a few moments before they realized they needed Han Solo. If the Corellian was allowed to escape, Lumiya would not forgive them. "Get out of here!" Rylii cried to him, bringing up another blaster and fired, this time intentionally missing him. It was enough for a show, Var disappearing. Rylii scooped the Kuati noble into his arms and retreated for the Blight Leaper...

Once onboard, he began to power up the engines, effectively shutting Sethe Bhren out. Rylii had delivered Tseneca Lowry-Fink... it was up to Lohden and Var to finish the task.

"I can't allow you to leave Sethe." The engines began to shut off. Rylii sighed, he had been annoyed with all the setbacks, but the last thing he needed was for the AI to rebel. Frakkin' programs.

"Sethe is leaving on the Falcon, SAMM." Lucas answered, Rylii caught his eye. It seemed like they both didn't want the man to make it out. A smooth smile appeared on the edge of his lips as the AI returned power to the engines. Rylii watched as Jonas and Sara valiantly fought off the massive droid and troopers, but it was all in vain. Goodbye Jonas, he whispered, before catching Sethe's eyes. Rylii did a salute, before bringing the Blight Leaper about and out of the forest clearing... leaving everyone to die.

Jonas watched a figure with a red blade engage Lucas, then ultimately, somekind of lightning expelled from the man's hands and hit him hard, and for a good amount of time. Sara looked worried, but they were locked in a defense against soldiers and time prevented them from escaping or aiding the pair below. Jonas shot wildly, his bolts hitting targets perfectly on their mark as the energy of survival began to kick in.

Han Solo was frantically working on the repair, grumbling at something to his assistant, when the ground below the ship began to shake. The massive droid unit came to life and it was heading straight for them, all of Nico's battle turrets had been destroyed, and they were fresh out of charges.

"Sara." He said, it didn't require anything else, she saw it.

"The droid!" A voice called out, it was Sethe. "What the frak!" They looked over to catch Rylii in the pilot's chair of the Blight Leaper. The ship's engine fired up up and it sailed over their heads. "That frakkin' coward!"

Jonas looked worried, but the battle prevented them from thinking too much into it. The man with the red lightsaber was missing and the droid was advancing too quickly for the repairs. Just before all hope ran out, the Millennium Falcon sputtered, before churning, the engines promptly firing up.

"Thank the gods," Jonas muttered, watching the dazzle of Sara's lightsaber bounce the incoming shots as he used her other hand to fire the blaster.

Suddenly, something wrapped around his thigh, and he was free-sailing through the air with Han and Sara... they were strung up by the spider-droid, and by the looks of it, they were about to be placed inside a mini holding chamber.

The Denora's Fury danced in the sky, weaving in and out of fighter and bomber groups. If it had not been for his piloting experience from his criminal days, as well as his mastery of the Force, they would have never lasted this long. Solo had been right, the weapons of the fighters seemed to tear through shielding in a small amount of hits and it took the routing of power from nonessential systems to keep the shields functioning.

He broke off after taking down another wing group and strafed a group of bombers. The sky was quickly filling with too many targets. Weaving and ducking between TE ships, he let Sahana handle the targeting systems for the quad lasers, while he sent out concussion missiles as needed. Opening a frequency to the group on the ground, he shouted into the com. "It's getting too hot! I need to break off! What's going on down there?!"

Yeah, took a bit, had to think of something

This was a loosing battle. They were being overrun, and the Empires new war droid was taking people captive. With one ship gone, and the Falcon overrun, there seemed two options for escape – the firespray, or the Fury, if he could hold out long enough. And Dryas wasn’t sure that was possible.

”What’s going on down there?” He heard a dropped comm. call out. It sounded like Denora’s voice. Pulling the comm. through the air towards him, he tried to respond.

“We’re being overrun!” Dryas said. “They’re practically on top of the Falcon, and I don’t know who’s been captured and who hasn’t. They have some kind of spider-droid that’s…”

His conversation was cut short as one of the droids lines came at him. Dodging to the side, he cut the gripping end off, which as far as he could tell left it worthless.

“…they’re taking prisoners!” He said, finishing the sentence. “If you can’t get down here, I think the Firespray may be the last option out of here for anyone who’s still left!”

The question was just who was left.

He could see Han, Sara, and another being pulled through the air by one of the droids, but he had no means of helping them – they were too far off for him to cut free through the throw of his lightsaber and he couldn’t possibly reach them in time. He could only hope that Sara would be able free them herself. He had no idea where Sahana’s apprentice was, either.

Holding out hope that some of them might have still been free, though, he slowly began his retreat back to the last ship to freedom, where he prepared to hold off attackers as long as he could until the ship was forced to take off.

Once he realized he was flying through the air not of his own ambition, Morgan fired up his repulsorlifts and tried to control his descent. He wasn’t quite fast enough. As he began to right himself, his descent carried him into the top of a tree. The impact broke his concentration, and so he began to fall down through the canopy, hitting every other branch on his way down before he finally came to a halt as he landed in a heap on the ground.

”FrakkingSithspawnNerfhearding…” He said as he picked himself up, along with a number of other curses and obscenities, many of which were worse. After bending his organic joints and the like to try to ward off the pain enough that he could get moving, he picked up his grenade launcher and put it away. It was then that he was that he wasn’t the only one that had survived the throw.

”I’m not sure if I’d list this as our ‘Worst Day Ever’, but I’d definitely put it in the top ten. Probably even the Top Five.”
”Yeah…thanks.” Morgan said. He pulled out his blaster rifle, with his initial instinct being to shoot her then and there. But he quickly realized it probably was a waste of his time, especially since she was already on the move. Even if her bodyguard wasn’t there, he still didn’t have the time to try to shoot her if he wanted to ensure his own best chances of survival.

”You should thank your lucky stars you’ve got your JEDI LAPDOG to protect you!” He shouted after her as he ran back towards where the ships were located. At least he could take some measure of enjoyment out of taunting her. "But one day after we get off this planet, I'm going to kill you so dead, both your parents and your kids will feel it!"

Way to make it obvious, you damn droid, Kalin mentally scorned the forces of the True Empire, wondering how they were tossed in with the lot. He was left as the only man standing on the top of the ship. Lumiya must be aboard one of their command vessels, and the battle was certainly going in their favor. Kalin slipped off the Falcon, watching one of the Bothan Jedi retreat to the edge of Nico's ship. Kalin raised his blaster, carelessly targeting and missing the droid's tentacle styled legs. "I've got you, Captain!" He yelled, but it was mostly a distraction while he dropped charges along the ground.

He retrieved a comm device, "Get ready for this." He whispered to Var, watching Sethe approach the mega-droid.

"Ahhhhhh!" Kalin called out to fake getting hit and dropped to the floor. He closed his eyes, waiting for the right moment...

In all the moments, all the silences and all the words chosen carefully, he was about to deliver Han Solo to his worst enemy. He would never be the same man after day, and it was in that fact that brought a cool smile to his face. "You frakkin' Corellian scum." He said through gritted teeth...
