Pay attention? Why? I don't think I owe attention any money. What has attention ever done for me?

Beep....Beep....Beep.....BaNg!!! "Wha..." I opened my eyes, all I was
doing was doing was trying to take a nap, oh right! I'm supposed to be
watching Tahiri...ACK! She must have jolted awake because she was seated upright on her bad, holding her head.
"Tahiri!You're awake!" I signaled Uncle Luke, but he came in before I could touch the last button. Masters....
She tried to get out of bed immediately, but Uncle Luke restrained her.
"You're not going anywhere." He said, she glared at him.
"I know who is responsible for this." That took ME by surprise, I mean, we all SAW the rubble, but we were more concerned for Tahiri. Then I remembered.
"Wait, don't tell us yet, you have a visitor." I signaled to Jacen to bring her visitor in.
```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
I didn't really care id Krista Fett herself wanted to see me,but I had to respect my elders.
The most grueling,indespicable,lying,bratty,stupid,ugly Twi'lek EVER SEEN in the history of the hall of FrEaKs walked in. You know her name well enough, but I wanted to say it in a nasty voice, Soooo....
"Alema Rar." My voice dripping in contempt.
"Tahiri Veila. Now that we're all introduced, we can get down to buisness." she whipped out her comlink. Ack! Noooo... not again! I think Jaina caught my train of thought, because she force-pulled the comm out of Alema's hand and into her own.
"What's this? Doesn't look like a normal comlink." she said, examining it.
"It's not." Alema said, eying Master Luke. She knew, he knew, she turned to run.
"Don't let her escape! She is the one responsible for Anakin's death!" I screamed. Jaina,Jacen and Master Skywalker took after her.
I sighed and laid back down, but then I remembered another fact, I sat up,...and hit my head on the med thing again.
"Nom Anor is on his way to Myrkr, and this time he's gonna make sure Anakin is dead!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I felt Tahiri's worry for me, even from such a long distance.
I couldn't tell what she was worried about happening, but I could tell she knew it would. I had to hide.
I woke myself from the half-trance and saw Yuuzhan Vong warriors,voxyn, and ysalamiri, they hadn't spotted me...yet.

NEXT POST:
Tahiri Veila
"OK, everyone packed?" They all nodded. We were FINALLY going to rescue Anakin. I know he's alive, I can sense his impatience from over here.
Jacen looked at Jaina and she shrugged. "tahiri, we think you should stay here." she said. "You're in no condition to persue Anakin, and if it happens again..."
"-I can survive if it happens again, and I'll take it slow." I retorted.
"Tahiri, you don't understand, your heart stopped ... twice. If it happens again you WILL die, we don't want that to happen." Really? *cringe* Don't give me logic! It just goes in one ear and out the other. *revertes to begging*
"Look, I promise I'll be extra careful, I won't run...too fast and If I feel a heart attack coming on I'll infrom you immediately." They didn't look very convinced. "-Plus, Alema can't control my illness, we have her 'comm' thingy." I waved the contraption in their faces. Jaina planted her hands on her hips and Jacen's frown deepened.
"You know you're hearing things when Tahiri starts making sense." They rolled their eyes good-naturedly and walked off. I grinned, I had won this round.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Alema Rar
I tried to weaken the bars of my cell, but I didn't prevail. Blast that Tahiri! She thought of everything; cortosis ore,ysalamiri,alarm and motion sensors and shock cuffs. She is a smart Jedi. I hope my bumbling employee hasn't found Anakin Solo yet, because I have come up with a better plan that will end up killing both Anakin Solo AND Tahiri Veila. It was perfect, not flawless, but good. Now to contact him...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Anakin Solo
I heard Nom Anor curse and say: "It's her." in Yuuzhan Vong. Who, his boss? I mean, I know Nom Anor's not the 'King Vong' or anything, but it made on want to laugh thinking a FEMALE Vong could be barking orders at Mr. Monologue. I couldn't understand most of what they were saying, Man, another thing to add to my 'I wish Tahiri were her, because:' list. But I caught a few words, "abandon," "Search," and "plan". Hmm... sounds suspiciously like...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Alema Rar
"Abandon your search I have a plan." I repeated rapidly into my constructed commlink. I looked around, someone was coming.
"I need to go, don't do anything to Anakin Solo." I took apart the device and restored the peices back to where they belonged in the cell. Tahiri, of all people, showed up putside my prison.
"You're coming with us, If Nom Anor hurts Anakin in any way, we'll kill you." Well, at least I won't be killed. "-If Anakin is unhurt and Nom Anor is still alive then we'll use you, and if that fails, THEN we'll kill you." Kriff, now I hafta make sure they win.
"Deal." I smiled, she didn't.
"It wasn't optional." She nodded at someone and I felt my cage being lifted onto some vessel. She waved, smiling...more like smirking. "See you at Myrkr."
No, Myrkr is where I get off....

Oi. I guess I'd better update. ::groans::
--------------------------------------------------
Anakin Solo
And then they left. Just like that. I know they're all gone because I reached out with the force and felt their ships leave. I have no idea what they're up to, but their 'boss lady' must think I'm unimportant, because they've abandoned the search. I'm still in amasement, Time for that much needed trance...
__________________________________________________________________________
Tahiri Veila
I don't know if bringing Alema is the brightest idea, but I have a feeling that it's the right thing to do. I really hope Anakin's OK! We just passed a Yuuzhan Vong fleet and they didn't even fire a shot. We were about to, but Alema said that they wouldn't fie upon us because they knew we had her aboard. I need to find out HOW they knew sometime soon.
We landed safely at Myrkr (even with Jacen driving...) and exited immediately.
"It'll take all day to find him if we stay together. I say we split up, Jacen,Tenel Ka and Zekk will go that way, Tahiri,Alema and I will go the opposite. Jaina commanded. "Ok? OK."
I seized Alema's arm and pushed her forward, she hissed -as Twi'lek's do- at me .
"I don't sense him" I muttered as I trudged over dead bodies, mostly Yuuzahn Vong, some spookily familiar.
"Yeah, me neither." Jaina took out her commlink. "Jacen? I can't sense Anakin anywhere, and there's no sign of ysalamiri, so he's not here." Jaina and I looked at the ground, How could we have missed him?!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Previously...
Anakin Solo
I looked up in the sky, it looked OK. I stepped out of my hiding spot, big mistake. I was grabbed from behind and bound so quickly I didn't have time to wonder why my 'danger sense' that I have come to trust didn't tingle. Of course, behind every Vong kidnapper there's a... ysalamiri. No surprise there.
"You see gentlemen. My contradictions of the Headmaster's order did pay off. Take him away." Nom Anor gloated in my face. Now I would never be found!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tahiri Veila
"You do realize he could REALLY just be dead." Alema grumbled as we searched through the bodies.
"Impossible, Alema." Jaina shot me a look. I saw something that cuaght my eye, blood,and it was fresh.
"Quick! Get me an analasyse of that blood!" Jaina ran over, I followed.
"Results coming in... Type: blablabla...blablabla... Assumed Analasyse Name: Anakin Solo! So he was here!" Jaina threw a triumphant fist into the air.
"Let's go look for some more clues." I said spotting another pool of blood,and this time it was Yuuzhan Vong. I turned ot look at Jaina.The fleet of Vong, it was large enough to hold and hide one Jedi, confined, and I sensed ysalamiri, but didn't think much of it because Vong always carry them. I bet he was on there."
Jaina rolled her eyes and pounded a Vong body in discouragement. "Alema! She did this, I don't know HOW, but No other Yuuzhan Vong knew we were coming back OR that Anakin was alive." But then I remembered something.
"Nom Anor knew. Alema talked ot him...Alema!" I whirled around to the spot where I had left her, she wasn't there...oh, good!
"Hurry! Let's get into a ship and follow her!" My evil plan was working. I knew Alema wanted to kill Anakin and if I were her, I'd try to escape and find him. And if Nom Anor has somehow captured Anakin, thenit would be no problem for her to hi-jack a ship and kill Anakin before we found out where she was. Now she could lead us to Anakin and all we would have to do would be to get to him before she did.

Alema Rar hehehehe... will I ever stop laughing!? Jaina and Tahiri didn't even notice me as I slipped away, which was a good thing. Now I can meet up with Nom Anor and... waaaaaaiiiiit just one hoth frost second! I'm not THAT stupid am I? Now that I think about it, Tahiri looked OBSESSED with that pool of blood. I can lead them into a trap and THEN kill both Anakin Solo and Tahiri Veila. Where did I put that spare comm? Kriff. ______________________________________________________________________________________ Anakin Solo I wiped blood from my nose and mouth. What would my dad do? "Why do you Vong torture people without asking questions? Or demanding?" I asked my torturer, some over-sized Vong warrior covered in blood, my blood. He smirked at me. "I was not instructed to ask questions, only to weaken." Weaken? Well, at least he's not instructed to kill me. "Hah! My sister could hit me harder than you." Hey, It's probably true. *SlAp* "OK, maybe you should take this to her..." I grumbled. "Your sister will be joining us soon enough, as well as the one who was shaped." That took me aback. "Do you have them in separate cells or something?" I asked cautiously. "No; but the headmaster is leading them..." "Yzuexk! Shut up, don't give away anything, Headmaster's orders." If 'Yzuexk' has been human he probably would've clamped his hand over his mouth and said 'Oops!'. But, he was Yuuzhan Vong and well... they think more drasticly. I looked away as Yzuexk picked up a whip sorta thing with spiks and began to apply it to himself. "I am ashamed to have revealed our missions secrecy." "Then go... I will deal with the boy human." Jedi! I'm a Boy Human Jedi! Nom Anor (no surprise there) and another prison guard walked in. "Hello, Jeedai." Hello, Snoozen. I didn't reply however. "You have not yet broken the Jedi, have you?" "No, my lord." "Good, the headmaster has other plans." He turned to me. "Look who decided to join you, Jeedai." He motioned to his guards. Please don't be Tahiri! Alema stumbled in. "It's JEDI! Learn to pronounce it right, scumbag." She shrugged off her captors gri[ and seated herself beside me. "What did you do to earn this?" I asked sarcasticly. "I'm part of an organized Jedi search party looking for you. Fortunately, I don't think that Jacen and Tenel Ka or Zekk were captured. Jaina, Tahiri, and I foolishly followed the headmaster here. I dunno what happened to them." She replied. "Oh." I turned back to Nom Anor. "What now?" He seemed to hesitate and looked at Alema. "I will confine you both in the same cell, for the time being." He finally said. I looked at Alema and she shrugged. Nom Anor left and Alema leapt to her feet and began to feel along the wall. "What'cha doin'?" I asked. "There is a seam somewhere along the wall that opens up into a small passage. According to the records, Yuuzhan double agents would get captured along with the people they were betraying and then slip through the passage when the betrayed were asleep. Those people were called 'Yzuexk' bu the Yuuzhan Vong, or 'Traitor'." Ohhh... so the Vong I thought was named 'Yzuexk' was really a 'traitor'. *smirk* "Found it!" she pressed a bulging seam in the stone wall and a couple stones rose to reveal a small passageway. "It's going to be tight, but we'll make it." she said. "What do you mean 'tight'?" she spread her hands to show how small the passageway was. "Oh." "We'll make it though, it's not too tight." She looked in. "I hope." I looked in. "One of us could go first." She shook her head. "The 'door' would block the entrance for the second person." "Ookay, then. Let's go." We both squeezed in and immediately the bickering began. "Your lightsaber holster is pressing against my side!" "Your blaster holster doesn't make my wounds feel any better." "Just think how painful the hurt would be if our weapons were actually where they were supposed to be." "At least we'd be armed. " "On the other hand, your lightsaber could've ignited intp my leg." "Your blaster could go off underneath all the pressure." "Oh,look. we're alomost at the end." "Really?" (Me) "No." (Alema) "What!?" (Me) "Just kidding." (Alema) "About what!?" (Me) "We still have a couple more meters." (Alema) "Really?" (Me) "Yup." (Alema) ~30 Minutes Later~ "Yeah, 'a couple more meters'." (Me) "We must have taken a wrong turn." (Alema) "We didn't take any turns!" (Me) "So...now what?" (Alema) "I dunno, you were the one who dug through ancient holovids of Vong culture instead of practicing." (Me) "Are you saying I'm rusty?" (Alema) "Your hinges could use polishing." (Me) "Ah... the end is near." (Alema) "I'm afraid to say 'really'." (Me) "I'm pretty sure." (Alema) "I'm not raising my hopes." (Me) "Ah, here we go, the lever." (Alema) "Did you name it, or the Vong?" (Me) "It's just a lever." (Alema) "Whatever." (Me) "Ahhhhhh!!!!!" We both shrieked as we dropped onto the floor, fortunately, our fall was cushioned by dead Vong bodies...ugh... did I say 'fortunately'? "Hey, this is where you 'died'." "Sooo... we're back on Myrkr?" I asked. "Apparently." "So the fleet doubled back?" "Looks like it." "Let's go find Jaina and Tahiri." I helped Alema up, but she fell on me, laughing. "You don't need to find us." Jaina's voice was filled with steel. "I'm here. Tahiri's searching the west region." I pushed Alema off me and ran to Jaina. She hugged me, but didn't keep her eyes off Alema. "By order of the New Jedi Order, Alema Rar, you are under arrest." I was shocked. "What did she do?" "More than I feel you know." She motioned to Jacen, who gave me a happy smile and a pat on the back before containing Alema. Tenel Ka came out of her hiding spot. "Tahiri should've been back by now, I'm worried." She said to Jacen. "Tahiri went off alone!?" I shouted. "She said that Riina was leading her somewhere and that she might as well check it out. Zekk went with her." Jaina replied, paling. "He said to come after them if they weren't back soon." Tenel Ka answered. "Let's go."

------------------Zekk--------------------
Tahiri fell first, they dragged her off. I fought as hard as I could, but there were too many.
We were stuffed in separate cells, the walls were made of durasteel, but the rest of the cell was dirty, grime oozed from cracks in the wall, and bones looked like they had been pushed underneath the coarse rock cot. The smell was unbearable...well...really bad. I could only hope that Tahiri's cell was better than this, no sick Jedi could survive these conditions.
__________________________________________________________________________________
------------------Tahiri Veila-------------------
My cell looked decent, I guess they saw that I was in a weakened state. There was a blanket covering a rock sticking out from the wall, a bed, I guess. It smelled horrible and I saw a pile of bones in a corner of the room. The walls were made of durasteel and the bars of cortosis ore. No idea how I knew that. Time for a little nap...Ick.
I'm where Anakin died. I looked around. The exact spot.
'Marvelous, isn't it?' Riina's voice sounded spookily like mine.
'No, it's not. It's where the only person I ever loved died.'
'Where are you now?'
'No idea what you means by that.'
'Where in the universe?'
'Myrkr. We think Anakin is alive.' I grinned at her.
'Kriff.' She ignited her lightsaber. Not an amphistaff, a lightsaber. I ignited mine.
'You know you're going to lose,Riina.' I said, trying to sound confident. She laughed.
'I know. But you won't win.' She struck out at me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
--------Anakin Solo----------------
"I can feel them, I just can't see any way to get to them." I said, looking at the dead end. Alema smirked. I looked back at her. "Open it."
"Like kriff I will." She spat. Then I remembered how she had found the small passageway. Feeling my way along the wall I slowly climbed up,using the force, I felt every seam and crack, every block of stone, until I found it near the top. I pressed it, but nothing happened. I pressed it again and again, Alema laughed. I glared at her and turned to Jacen.
"Any ideas, bro?" Jacen's form wavered until a Yuuzhan Vong appeared before us, Tenel Ka gasped, Jaina fingered her lightsaber and I just stared.
The Jacen-Vong shrugged. "I've always been good with animals." I relaxed and Jacen-Vong climbed up beside me and pressed the seam. The wall began to lower, and I high-fived Jacen, who had already changed back to his normal self. We vaulted down and waited for Jaina, who was having a nice, hard time pulling Alema through the opening. I finally just picked Alema up with the force.
"Thanks,Annie." Jaina sighed.
"Anytime, Jaya." Alema didn't struggle with the force, just yelled 'Put me down!' a lot.
"What happened to your force powers?" Jaina asked Alema.
"I wish I hadn't diseased Tahiri." She grumbled.
"You mean diseasing Tahiri drained your powers?!" What Disease?!
"Yeah. So now I have Nom Anor bowing at my feet. He'll be along any minute to rescue me."
*****************************************************************************************
-------------- Zekk -----------------
"We have bad news, my lord."
Nom Anor looked up from his book. "What."
"Headmaster Rar has been cpatured by the Jeedai."
"Really!Ahem..er.. send a dozen warriors down after her or something."
"My lord, that won't be enough."
"Warrior, what I've learned about Jeedai, even an army isn't enough. Rar can die for all I care." He responded, I felt like cheering. Tahiri, please get better! I looked over at her unconcious form lying on her rock bed. Hurry...
*****************************************************************************
---------------- Tahiri Veila ---------------
'I will not give in to the Dark Side!' I screamed.
'I found consolances there, you could too.' Slash,block.
'I am Tahiri Veila, native of the planet Tatooine and a Jedi Knight, Guardian of the Peace. WHY would I succumb?!'
'I'm Riina of Domin Kwaad, Yuuzhan Vong trapped inside an enemies mind.'
'Y'know,' Swing kick,slash,block. '-for one second I actually felt a pang of pity.'
'You have no idea what it's like to be be trapped. Sunlight is gone, when you fall asleep the only thing to do is haunt your dreams and beg you to get me out of your mind. I hate, but respect you, at the same time. When your friend Anakin drove me down, he helped me and you. But now, he is dead, and there is no hope to be driven back down again.' Parry,block,chop.
'I didn't know of your suffering.' Ookay...here ramblings got to me...what can I say? I realized how I'd feel as her, and it was spookily familiar. I shut off my lightsaber.
'I am sorry for your suffering, but I will not join the dark side. No matter what. I want to help you, to get you out of my mind. But I won't join the dark side.' Her upper lip curved into a sneer.
'Then you leave me no choice.' She tossed her lightsaber into the air. I watched it go up and up, until only the faint glow could be seen, then it came down. So fast I didn't realize what she was doing until it happened.
The lightsaber came down on Riina's elbow, and searing pain tore up my opposite arm, and I screamed in pain without trying to contain it. Riina was biting her lip.
'Don't destroy us.' she whispered. 'Join the dark side, I won't let you destroy us!' I stood up, grasping my arm, my legs shaking.
'I am Tahiri Veila, Jedi Knight of the New Jedi Order, Guardian of the Peace! I WILL NOT SUCCUMB TO THE DARK SIDE!'
~~~~~~~~~~Anakin Solo~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Here they come." Jaina put her hands on her hips and looked at them sarcastically. They stopped and looked half scared to death. So THIS is what they look like without a billion of them squashed together.
"What a LAME attempt to rescue me! You call that a rescue party!? More like a death meeting! I am severely disappointed with Nom Anor!" Alema complained.
"Nom Anor doesn't care whether you dir or live, you've only been a hinderance to his rising power." The Vong I had mistaken for 'Yzuexk' said in his own language.
"You could go back to your master while you still have the chance, but then again, we can't risk him knowing our true position so..." I said before force-pushing them into a wall. Jacen and Tenel Ka took care of the concious ones, and Jaina took care of the unconcious. It was all over in about 5 seconds.
"Let's go get Zekk and Tahiri." I lead them down to where Alema and I had dropped out of the small passageway. "Jacen, help me look for another seam."
"Anakin, what's going on? We just doubled back."
"I only just remembered the passageway, and that wall was a shortcut doubling back here, so technically I was only following the toute." I gave Jaina a Solo-Grin.
"Found the latch." Jacen said.
"Latch?"
"Lever, whatever." Jaina said, rolling her eyes.
"Opening, passageway." Jacen grinned, but his grin turned upside down when he saw the size of the thing. "You can FIT in there?!"
"Only two people can fit in at a time." I looked around. "I'll go with Jaina, Jacen, you take Tenel Ka and Alema around the long way." They all nodded.
"May the force be with us." Then Jaina and I entered the tiny entryway.
---------------- Tahiri Veila----------------
Riina shrunk back a little. 'You don't hafta 'succumb', you are made to be equal with...'
'-The dark side is not the way to satisfaction, It doesn't give you 'complete happiness' or ANY happiness for that matter. You should join the Jedi, we protect peace and fight for a greater cause.' I told her bluntly.
'The Yuuzhan Vong have a just cause.'
'Yeah, sure. They want more to control, even though they aren't multiplying. They kill for fun, and become slaves to the drak side. Do you 'enjoy' pain, Riina?'
'No being enjoys pain, but Vong can endure it.'
'That fact is obvious in itself. Do you enjoy the dark saide?'
'I gain much knowledge.'
'Do you enjoy the dark side?'
'My powers have grown.'
'You still haven't answered my question, Riina.' I put a kindly/harsh tone into my voice, maybe I could tame the beast. She looked like she was searching for an answer then sighed.
'No, I do not.'
'Then why do you let it control you?'
'Power. I love the feeling of having new strengths.' I thought I saw a shadow move out of the corner of my eye. Riina looked into my eyes.
'You are waking up.'
'Then I don't have much time. Join me, Riina. Become one with me. Don't let us suffer any more'
'Tempting offer.' She looked at me with a mischevious grin. 'Will there be sunshine?'
'Duh.'
She took a shaky breath. 'OK, I'll do it. I don't want to be a slave anymore.'
~*~*~*~*~ Nom Anor ~*~*~*~*~
I looked over to the cell contianing the boy from Ennth. "Bring down the racket in there or you'll be next on the torturing block." I grumbled in halting basic.
"I'm not usually this loud, my lord." He mumbled sarcastically as he looked around his cell, searching for the noise.
********** Anakin Solo ***********
"I'm stuck!" (Jaina)
"No you're not, move your hand and pull upwards." (Me)
"Oh." *BaNg* "Could ya keep it down!?" (Jaina)
"My leg fell asleep." (Me)
"AND!?" (Jaina)
"I had to shake it." (Me)
"Yeah, AND you hit the extremely fragile... AH!" Jaina screeched as we dropped.
"Look what you did!" Jaina laughed as she sat up. We were in a prison cell.
"Owwww...." Zekk's prison cell, apparently.
"Zekk!" Jaina whispered exitedly. They hugged quickly and she got off his lap. Nom Anor hadn't even heard us, he was too busy reading.
"What's the dude reading?" I asked Zekk.
"Something very important to Alema, apparently." Jaina said as she sat back and hid behind a boulder, we opied her.
"Nom Anor." Alema said, I peeked out to see her, arms crossed, scowling at Nom Anor.
"H-Headmaster Rar. So pleased to see-" Alema smaked him.
"Shut up. Get the Veila girl and that other guy in here, we kill them first befor ethe others come."
"The others?"
"The Solo kids and their princess friend. Anakin and Jaina are coming up by the passage, I delayed Jacen and Tenel Ka, but they'll be here soon."
Jaina turned to look at me and Zekk, then winked and suddenly her figure transformed into a rock. Oh! Good idea. Zekk and I did the same. The guard walked up to Zekk's door and opened it.
"-all I wanna know is why there's no ysalam..."
"-My lady! My lord! There's no one in there!" They came rushing in. They started gropping around the cell to see if they could feel us, but by then Jaina,Zekk, and I had slipped out of the cell and closed the door behind them.
"Hey!" Alema was the forst to notice. She looked over at a Vong warrior. "Kill her now!" And then I noticed what he was holding: Tahiri. And she was unconcious.

"No!" I yelled as the warrior drew his blade. I started towrads them but I knew it would be too late. The door swung open and struck the warrior in the head, they both fell to the ground, but I caught Tahiri.
Jacen looked surprised, but was grateful to his timing and door-opening skills. Jaina and Tenel Ka hugged each other and I hoisted Tahiri over-my-shoulder.
"Let's get out of here!" I yelled, frantic to get Tahiri the medical help she needed. We all raced to the ship, forgetting for a moment where the beacon was. When Jaina FINALLY produced it from one of twenty pockets, we were off.
I saw something in Tahiri's hand and opened it. It was Nom Anor's book. "How'd she get that?"
I asked aloud, Jaina came over. At my mystified expression, she laughed.
"I saw it and thought it might be an interesting read for Tahiri. I slipped it into he rhand while we were loking for the beacon."
"Oh." I looked down at Tahiri and she began to stir, but never opened her eyes. Now I have to wait even longer to see if either Riina or Tahiri emerges.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
~Tahiri Veila~
"Tahiri, you have a visitor." Cighal's voice breezed through my train of thought. I looked up begrudgingly from the Yuuzhan Vong book I was investing my attention in.
"I'm a little busy, if it's not someone I know then I really don't care." I looked back down at the book. It was actually pretty interesting, but being able to FINALLY crack the code of Yuuzhan Vong so-called writing was pretty fun to me, so that may have been the spark for my amusement. I heard heavy footsteps coming down the hall, indicating that I had a male visitor. Well, that narrows it down a lot.
I glanced up to see a young man, about 18, smiling softly at me. His hair was black as was his goatee and his eyes were ice blue. Hmmm.... this guy related to the Solo's?
"Hello. I apologize for the intrusion. My name is Nakim Sal-Solo."
"Relative of Thrackan Sal-Solo's?" I narrowed my eyebrows.
"Not nearly related in attitude as I am blood." Nakim looked at the ground. "I heard about Anakin's death."
"Anakin was something special," I smiled sadly. "Not a day goes by where I wish I could have taken his place." Nakim raised his eyebrows.
"Just don't commit suicide." Yeah right. This dude thinks I was thinking of doing something stupid like killing myself. I just smiled. Nakim suddenly laughed and then stopped abruptly, biting his lip. Ookay...
"What?" I asked, confused. (A little.)
"I was just thinking. I was watching one of Anakin's holos to his family and he said that his best friend, Tahiri Veila, was very talkative, hardly shut up."
"The good ol' days." I said softly, then glanced down at my book, torn between talking to a relative of Anakin's or finishing a chapter.
"I used to have a friend simular to you in your youth." Nakim stated, his gaze was off set, he must be thinking into the past.
"What happened to her?...Or him?"
"War changes a lot of things, Tahiri." He said sadly. I didn't say anything, so he changed the subject. "Cighal said you were ill, but she didn't say what your illness was. What?" I decided to tel him about Riina instead of my heart condition.
"Long story."
'It's one I'd like to hear." He said, I smiled (in annoyance, but he didn't know that.)
"About two years ago, on a mission to Yag Dhu'l, the Vong decided to play with my mind and implant a Yuuzhan Vong female called 'Riina of Domin Kwaad' into my 14 year-old mind. Well,
Anakin saved me before the transformation was complete, and he thought he had 'killed' her, but in fact he had only driven her down. Long story made short,ever since the fight, I feel so much more...whole. I can speak Yuuzhan Vong now, even though I'm not sure I want to,and read it. When I look at sunshine I feel a new appriciation, for Riina, or the part of me that is Riina, has never really seen sunshine,"
"You fought Riina?!"
"Yeah, well, she was trying to turn me towards the dark side so her suffering would end, yadayada."
"But what happened to her?"
"She filled halfway up the hole she dug when she was implanted." Well, almost. Her..my newfound obbsession with sunlight can get annoying.
"What could fill the other half?" Nakim asked, eaning forward. Ookay...this guy is getting creepy. I reached out with the force to see if he was really there, and not some trick of my imagination (or Riina's) but I didn't feel anything.
"Nakim, I can't feel the force!" He laughed while my frown deepened considerably.
"Cighal placed some Ysalamiri behing your bed so you won't walk out on her." My frown changed to a sheepish laugh.
"Oops." I giggled.
"So, what could fill the rest of the hole up?" I looked at him uncertainly then sighed.
"If Anakin were alive I would be complete." The nurse walked in almost on cue. (Whew!)
"Mr. Sal-Solo visiting hours are over." Nakim looked back to me.
"Do you think we could talk more later?" MORE!? Why me... why not that cute nurse!? Fine.
I smiled (again, in annoyance, but he didn't know that) "Well, I do feel like sparring tonight."
"Ah, 1200 good for you?" NO!
"Sounds great." As soon as he left I rolled meyes and looked back down at my book, where was I?

~Tahiri Veila~ "Why did you have me meet you so late? Why did I agree to meet you so late!?" I demanded good-naturedly of Nakim. "It's so dark I think I just stepped on a muskrat." "No...that would be my foot," Nakim responded. I grinned, I couldn't wait for my little prank to start. "Do you wanna light a glow rod, or do you like standing in the dark?" He asked, everything was in place for my trap, so now I hafta say something innocent. "Riina and I both liked sunshine, but combined we like dark and light, so I'm fine." I signaled the ysalamiri and ignited a glow rod. "Wha...What's happening?!" I grinned even wider. "I'm making sure you are who you say you are," I shrugged gleefully. "Plus my pranks have became less frequent when the war began." I looked back at Nakim and gaped. Anakin was looking back at me, eyebrows raised. "What pranks? I seem to remember having the upper hand in all the mischevious ones." OK, since my grin couldn't really get much wider... I smirked. "Yeah, like your brilliant one at Myrkr," I ran into his arms. "I'm so glad you're safe." "You don't act surprised." "Cause I'm not. I was waiting for you to come home." I rested my head on his chest. "I would never leave you, Tahiri," I sensed a 'but' coming on...oh....Kriff. "-but you obviously wouldn't." I shoved myself away. "What do youi mean? I never gave up hope! Alema-" "-is the one who started it? Your new 'transformation'? Or did Riina and Alema unite?" I took a step back towards the door. "Why are you so sore?" I asked. "Gah, Tahiri! You accepted a date with someone you had only just met. I thought I meant more to you than that! You do to me." "I only accepted becasue I wanted someone to talk to." "You told 'Nakim' lies." "I didn't know whether or not he could be trusted with the truth!" Anakin let his hands fall to his side. "I...I'm sorry, Tahiri. It's just...everyine around here says something's wrong with you and they won't tell me what it is." I tried to accpet his apology, but his words had done too much a damage to let it pass. "You know how hard it is to settle back into life when your only stabilizer has been torn out of your life?" I pursed my lips in hurt and wiped tears from my face. Anakin looked at a loss for words. "Didn't think so." I signaled the door to open and walked briskly out. ************************************************************** ~Anakin Solo~ I watched Tahiri exit the room in stunned silence. Why had I let my anger speak for me? I love her... "Tahiri, wait!" I called after her, but she didn't stop or even slow. "Please, Tahiri!" She stopped, folded her arms, and looked back at me. "Is anything else wrong that you wanna take out on me?" I walked up to her. "No," she frowned more deeply. "Please forgive me. I'm back, you're still alive, and that's all that matters." I drew her into my arms. "I...stop!" She wasn't talking to me anymore. I wheeled around and spotted someone fading into the shadows. I turned back to Tahiri, she looked pale and put a hand to her heart. Her heart started to beat faster, dangerously fast. Wait, how had I known that? Her eyes rolled back into her head and she fainted into my arms. "Tahiri!" I shouted, she wasn't breathing. Someone had done this to her... Alema. I just knew. I signaled for 'medical help' and began to administer CPR. Cighal answered the call in a matter of seconds. Man, that Calamarian never sleeps! (Good thing, too.) "Quick, get her heart beating!" I shouted francticly. Tahiri's heart beat was already rising, how DID I know this stuff? I sank to the floor. "You and Tahiri have a special bond." Cighal murmered to me before rushing speedily away with Tahiri on the stretcher. "She is in a serious condition, try not to excite her." The nurse had told 'Nakim'. Jacen ran up, in his podracing PJ's Tenel Ka made him buy on a Tatooine mission, panting. "Anakin!" I rose form the floor where I had seated myself. "Did your romantic reunion go astray?" I curled my lip. "Whatever Tahiri has to make her colapse happened again." I crossed my arms as Jacen paled and Jaina slumbered up. "Gah, ub habed?" She sniffled, then blew her nose. "What happened?" Jace informed her and she groaned. "Kriff, again!?" I nodded. "What's Tahiri's sickness?" Suddenly, my siblings became obsessed with looking at every object and person accept me. "Uh... I think Tahiri should tell you." Yeah, if she lives. I nodded slowly and wheeled around to follow Cighal into the sick-bay. I heard Jacen sigh. Something is very seriously wrong with my princess. ------------------------------- A/T mush NEXT POST! |

Anakin Solo
They had me wait outside the emergency room, I don't think I can stand the tension.They told me she had a heart condition, but nothing more. Cighal came out of the room and I perked up, eager for news. She sighed.
"Anakin, this is not going to be easy to accept. Tahiri as diseased with something that I am unfamiliar with. So far as I can tell, certain emotions or actions can cause the illness. Her heart will stop and need prevoking to start back up again, so far that's the side effect. We can keep her alive by pumping her heart and inserting breathing tubes to her lungs," Cighal took a deep breath. "She isn't expected to make it to tomorrow, a few hours is all we can give her," she patted me on the leg. "But she is tlaking now, she wants to see you."
I held back my tears and entered the room. There she lay, tubes and all. Her eyes were closed, so I took a chair beside her bed.
"Hey, princess," My voice broke. The tears were creeping into my eyes and I couldn't hold them back.
"Hey," she wheezed, I took hand and kissed it.
"I'm so sorry." I whispered.
"It's...OK," She had to pause for breath between words. "I'm going home.. to the stars," I nodded slowly, tears trickling down my face with that motion.
"Anakin...I'm sorry I didn't... tell you... I didn't want you to... treat me differently." She wheezed, then coughed, she seemed to lose her breath then find it again.
"Shhh...don't talk," I said, reaching out to stroke her face. She closed her eyes again. "It's OK, and don't be sorry about anything. I'm the one who should be apologizing..." My voice broke again. (Kriff) Tahiri's hand reached up slowly and ruffled my hair, a sign of forgiveness.
I caught her hand and held it to my lips. "I love you." My tears were starting to blur my vision.
"I love... you, too," She wheezed softly, not strong enough to speak aloud anymore. She opened her eyes and upon seeing my tear streaked face her cracked lips formed a gorgeous smile.
"Dont...forget me," I wanted to scream, to hold onto her life, to keep anything from happening to her. I broke down into silent sobs still holding her weak hand. "Anakin..." A tissue plunked out of its box and into my other hand. "-Have a tissue." I tried to smile, even on the brink of death, Tahiri could lighten the mood, even if one's heart was sinking.
"I will never forget you." I promised, I leane dover and kissed her neck.
"You know... the first place I'm...goin'?" I shook my head. "...Tatooine."
"I wish none of this had happened." I croaked hoarsely, Tahiri frowned.
"You can't...change the past... only the future." She was breathing too heavily for my comfort.
"I'm not ready to let you go!" I exclaimed. "I can't let you go! I want you to survive, I wish I could take your place." She shook her head vigorously.
"No!...You don't! You... already did."
"What do you mean?"
"At Myrkr... I thought you were dead... but you weren't..." I took her hands in mine.
"I don't want to talk about death anymore." I murmured, my tears were trickling down my cheeks rapidly. She couldn't be taken away from me! This is so unfair...
"I'll never forget... you...Heroboy," She closed her eyes. "Don't leave...ne." Cighal walked into the room.
"Anakin, your parents are on a com outside." I looked back at Tahiri.
"I'll be right back, Princess." I got up slowly and went outside where my siblings were talking to a holo of my parents.
"Anakin! We heard about Tahiri..." I didn't hear the rest, only my own sobs.

Han Solo
"Anakin is inside talking with Tahiri now. She's not supposed to make it to tomorrow." That took me by surprise. The kid...*Ahem*... Young Lady always seemed...invincible or something.
"That's sithspawned weird that Tahiri of all people would contract the disease. Especially since no one has ever contracted it before." Leia started. We both know Anakin's feelings for the young woman. Just then, Anakin walked in veiw of the holo, his face pale and he was crying.
"Anakin! We heard about Tahiri, I'm so sorry..." I trailed off. My son broke into sobs and sat down in a chair. Leia looked at me, tears glistening in her eyes. Tahiri is like a fourth child to us.
Jaina walked over to Anakin and wrapped her arms around him, he hugged her back. It's good to see them getting along FINALLY! Jacen turned to the holoprojector.
"We'd better go, I'll call you soon." Leia shut it down after he finished.
"I hate Twi'leks." I said, Leia smiled at me.
"Han," She bit her lip and sat down in the co-pilot's chair."I just can't believe this is happening, not in my wildest nightmares.... I wish there were a cure." I snapped my fingers.
"We'll find one, We'll do it for Tahiri. Jacen said Alema doesn't have any force-hocus-pocus which means I can FINALLY fight her." I hooked up a line to Luke, Leia looked at me uncertainly. "Trust me,Leia. It's the least we can do."
"It's the MOST we can do, but I'm in." She sighed as her brothers face appeared on the holo. His hair was wcked and he looked like he'd missed a couple Jedi-Power-Naps.
"Hey,scruffy. We need a favor. Can you get us co-ordinates on Alema Rar?" He smiled wearily.
"That's easy. The moment we found out she was here we closed down the temple and put guards at all the landing platforms. So far as we know, she's still here."
"How can you close down a temple?" Leia poked me. "Nevermind, Alema's gonna get us an antidote." Luke looked uncertainly at me, a look FREAKISHLY like Leia's.
"What if there isn't one?"
"What kind of Twi'lek wouldn't invent an antidote to her own medicine? You know how clumsy they are. put a drug in one cup, a sedative in another, can't remember which is which so drinks a little of both. We're headed that way." I terminated the conversation before he could object.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
PART 2
~Anakin Solo~
I wiped my face and took a deep breath before entering the emergency ward again.Tahiri's rebreather was on her face now, and she was taking slow,deep breaths and licking her lips.
"I'm back." I said. She op-ened her eyes and smiled, but didn't say anything.
I'm concentrating on clearing my throat. She sent me. Cighal is trying to find an antidote, she's not giving up on me.
I took her hand and squeezed it. "I'll never give up on you." I said, my voice shaking softly. But I probably already HAD given up on her, didn't I just a few moments ago try to wipe away visions of our wedding that would never happen because I knew she was going to die?
"What did your parents say?" She asked slowly, and seemed pleased that she didn't cough.
"I didn't really talk to them." I answered sheepishly.
"Annie, you're taking this...really hard...You've convinced your self that there...isn't a cure, but...what if there is!? You'd be wasting...all your tears over nothing." I cupped her cheek in my hand.
"My princess is dying..that's not nothing." I took a shaky breath so that no more tears would escape from my eyes. "I don't want you to leave just when I have you back."
"I don't wanna die either, but Alema gave...me this sickness, and if she doesn't take it away, then... I will die." I stood up.
"Then she will."
"Where are you going!?"
"To find Alema."
"I thought you...weren't going to leave me." Tahiri sounded close to tears. I turned back, she was watching me, her deep green eyes glistening. "I don't want you to leave me."
"I...I'm..." I stuttered.
"I don't know if I'll be alive when you return." Her voice broke and I saw the fear in her eyes.
"Tahiri." I whispered. I ran to her bedside and kissed her. "I won't ever leave you." I promised. Her rebreather was cold against my cheek, but I didn't care.
"Let your dad take care of Alema..or your uncle. Whichever one finds her first." She smiled.
"How do you know she's even still here?" She let me pull back and motioned to a mirror-door.
"'Cause she's been watching us."

Alema Rar
Ick...eww...Geez...
I'm...admiring (if you want to call it that) my work.
I've got Tahiri Veila in a hospital bed and I've got Anakin Solo crying himself to death and
whispering sweet stuff in her ear. I hate romance.
Weird, I know, me being a Twi'lek an' all, but I do. Anyways, I think I have picked a pretty good hiding spot. Once the detonator is in place, I'm outta here...
____________________________________________________________________________________
Tahiri Veila
I sensed something stir in Alema's emotions...glee. She was about to do something big,
something disasterous, and I wouldn't be able to escape. Then it came to me, if I were her (thank the Force I'm not!), what would I want to do to my worst enemies?
Blast 'em to oblivion.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Anakin Solo
"Anakin! You have to.... leave, now! Alema is.... going to blow...her top! ...Literally..." Tahiri wheezed as fast as she could, I tried to shush her.
"Calm down, Tahiri! You'll stop your heart!" I placed my hands on her shoulders. I heard a door open behind me and I turned around. Alema was standing in the doorway, holding a TD. The last time I had dealt with one of those was when I was dying...
"Alema! Don't...do it!" Tahiri gasped out. Alema's grin grew wider.
"Like you can stop me. I have you and your boyfriend here, you think I'm gonna let that pass just 'cause it's the 'right thing to do'?" Her plan was obvious enough, blow up the emergency ward, give me time enough to chase her, but not enough time to rescue Tahiri from the ward, So I would leave Tahiri to kill Alema, which would kill Tahiri. I would die with Tahiri.
I realized that Alema could and would let go of the trigger at any moment, and that she had a classic form of escape. I grasped Tahiri's hand, for a daring plan had just formed in my mind...
__________________________________________________________________________________
Tahiri Veila
Anakin's plan was to yank the TD out of Alema's hand using the force and throw it as far away from the building as possible. Kinda daring, but one could never yank the TD away fast enough to escape the blast, so it was kinda hopeless.
"You have ten seconds, and no time for last words." Alema drew her blaster and pointed it at me. Just then Jacen walked in.
"Anakin, Dad's on the line.... whoa!" Alema fired at him and he deflected the shots with his hands. Alema ducked out of the way. I heard Jaina scream "Hang on!" and running footsteps.
Alema grinned mischeviously. "All the Solo kids and Veila, my lucky day has arrived." Then she let go of the Thermal Detonater and disappeared (?). Jaina grabbed it with the force and threw it outside, but it exploded too close to the wall and rubble poured down on me. One particular piece had it's eye on my left arm, chest, and left leg.

~Jacen Solo~
"Tahiri!" Anakin screamed. I opened my eyes and saw why, rubble, or ratherm a huge chunk of rubble was pinning her body to the bed.
"I'm fine, I may be sick, but the force hasn't abandoned me yet." She grumbled. "Could ya help me out? This is gettin' heavy." Anakin sighed and Jaina and I chipped in on lifting the big boulder.
Tahiri rubbed her gut. "Whooo... that was close." Anakin looked over at the hole in the wall.
"She got away," He said in a low voice. "Her speeder is almost to the forest." He began to run towards the door, then stopped and looked back at Tahiri.
Jaina was already out the door. "I hate Twi'leks!" she wa screaming. I started to go, then turned to my younger brother.
"Stay here with Tahiri, Anakin," I said. "She'll need some protection." I winked at him then ran out the door to catch up with my twin.
___________________________________________________________________
~Anakin Solo~
Tahiri and I sat in silence for about 10 seconds.
"Fine! Go if you want. There's... no one stopping you." Tahiri finally burst out. I shook my head.
"I promised you I wouldn't leave you." I wouldn't deny I wanted to go, but Tahiri's feelings meant more to me now than ever.
"Anakin, don't think of me as some over sensitive, absent minded female, I know you want to go after her, and I'm not going to stop you. I want you to be satisfied and I don't want to get in your way," I raised my eyebrows. "So go!" I still couldn't catch her point.
"Tahiri, I care more about you, so I'm staying. I don't care more about catching Alema than staying here."
"You...You don't?" I took her hand.
"I just want my princess to get better." She grinned.
"I'm going to... I dunno when.." I cupped her cheek in my hand.
"You're going to... soon." She frowned.
"I just don't know Anakin." I hid my reaction behind my next statement.
"I'll give you a new nickname if you try to heal yourself." She gasped in mock-seriousness.
"You wouldn't! Better than 'Princess'? Never." I leaned closer to her.
"You wanna bet, Angel?" I teased. She grinned and pulled me down into a tender kiss.
"You win! I'll go into a healing trance." She laughed after we had broken the kiss. I grinned and laid down beside her and wrapped my arms around her waist.
"Go to sleep, Angel." I said, letting her rest her head on my shoulder.
_________________________________________________________________________
~Alema Rar~
I hope the blast killed her, because I'm about to lead Jaina and Jacen through a hazardous trip through the jungle.
"Catch me if you can!" I yelled over my shoulder.

-Han Solo-
"If I were a Twi'lek, where would I hide-"
"-in a Jedi Temple," I interupted Luke.
"-In a Jedi Temple?" He finsihed. Mara smirked loudly,
"I'm glad you're not," She said. Ben, my little nephew, toddled in.
"Daddy's a Twi-blech?" I grinned at the kid's mis-combination. Leia elbowed me in the ribs.
"Don't laugh," She whispered to me through clenched teeth.
"I laughed?" Well, the thought of 'Twi'lek' being changed to 'Twi-blech' was amusing... as was the thought of Luke as a 'Twi-blech'.
"No, I'm not a 'Twi-blech'," Luke tickled his son. I looked down at the kid. He reminded me so much of Anakin... and of when I thought Anakin was dead. I shook those thoughts out of my head and back on how to capture the obnoxious Twi-blech.
-Leia Organa Solo-
"Alright, ready to-" I was cut off by an oncoming message from my eldest son.
The datapad read:
From: Jecan Sool
to: Mom
"I can see where Jacen got his spelling skills from," I teased Han.
We'r in a jma. Jiana adn I are trackingg Alema thru the forest. We'r eon speedres. Cna you heelp?
Jaceen
"The kid has a bad case of typo is all," Han said defensively. Ben peeked a look at my datapad.
"BAAAD case of twypo," I laughed.
"Let's go help 'em out," Mara said practically, dragging all of us into her vessel.
"This is where the fun begins," Han grinned at me.
"Oh, Han? Could you hold onto Ben for a little while?" Mara asked. I laughed again.
"Yes, it is," I stated, Han just groaned.
-Jacen Solo-
"Jecan Sool! You're worse than me! Worse than Mom! Worse than DAD (and that's saying something,) Worse than Jag! Zekk! Anakin!" I rolled my eyes. Would Jaina EVER let me live past all this?
"Nope," Kriff.
Heard that. Concentrate on Alema![/color] My twin sister's voice rang through my head,
Fine...[/color] I looked up just in time to see a tree trunk headed my way, I evaded it barely.
"Having trouble, scum?" Alema called back to me.
"Only when bantha's fly!" I called back.
"You fly?" Alema answered. Jaina smirked loudly.
"You really hafta work on your insults, Jace," She laughed. "You ready for a kriffin' hard work out, Twi'lek?" She called, pumping her engines to maximum. Alema was in for it...
-Jaina Solo-
Yes, this is fun. Have you ever seen a Twi'lek do a double take? It's really amusing. Their eyes bug out, their jaws slam the floor and they sound like they're gonna choke.
"*choking sound*," (Alema)
"Surprised?" I pulled my blaster from its holster. "Did I ever tell you how much I hate Twi'leks?" Alema's glance reverted ahead of her and she did another double take, then slammed on her brakes.
"Tree!" I heard Jacen shout. I looked up just in time to see a tree trunk catch the front of my speeder. I leapt as far out of the way as I could, but I still slammed against the tree, and the last thing I heard was the crunch of my breaking bones and Jacen's shout of dismay.
-Jacen Solo-
I tried as hard as I could to get to Jaina, but Alema got there first.
"Later," She said, and zoomed away with my unconcious twin.
"JAINA!" I yelled. But they were gone.

~Anakin Solo~"Jaina's in trouble!" Tahiri shook me awake. "Anakin, wake up! Jaina needs your help!" I grumbled something about hating Mondays and sat up, spewing. (Spewing: some of Tahiri's hair was in my mouth.) "Where is she?" Tahiri raised an eyebrow. "You have the force connection with her, I just felt a wave of pain and Jacen commed me saying he needed back-up," I got up from the cot and put my Jedi cloak on. I suddenly felt a wave of guilt and looked back at Tahiri. She smiled. "Go on, Ani. I'm gonna catch up on my reading," She said, motioning to her Vong book. I grinned and kissed her. "I'll be right back." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Tahiri Veila~ Finally! Anakin left, so now I can catch Alema. Yeah, I know what you're thinking: 'She'll get herself decapitated!', but I won't. Don't worry, I'll take it way easy. Heck, I'll even take a speeder instead of walking! I raced out the door ( )... then had to hide behind a pillow cuz Anakin was still in the building, talking to Master Skywalker. "...she'll be okay, right?" Anakin was asking Master S. Master Skywalker shook his head. "I just don't know, Anakin. Cighal is doing the best she can. But try not to worry. Tahiri has already made it to today, and she wans't expected to. I assume she'll make a full recovery." Anakin nodded and ran off, with Master Luke on his tail. "Phew!" I raced after them, hidden in the shadows, of course. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Alema Rar~I have one of the Solo kids: Jaina. If I'm fortunate, one of her brothers will attempt to rescue her, preferably her twin: Jacen. Then the Vong will come begging to me and groveling to do my commands. Suddenly, out of nowhere, another speeder appeared. This time Anakin was chasing me as well. "Why do you always try to kidnap my siblings!?" He yelled, igniting his lightsaber. "Why do you always foil my schemes?" I answered. There's a net up ahead that I have rigged for this exatc occasion. He's not Jacen, but he'll do nicely. Only 5,280 more feet. And I am traveling at about 200 mph, so that's coming up fast. "I just like watching the infamous Twi'lek's double take," He made a google-eyes expression and a coughing sound while I stared blankly. I'm not THAT bad... am I? Oops, the trap. "Going up!" Hey, that wasn't my voice, that was- "Tahiri Veila, at your service." "Kriff." ____________________________________________________________________________________ ~Jacen Solo~I force-pulled Jaina from Alema's grasp before Tahiri started the trap. Anakin leapt from his speeder before the trap could ensnare him, too. "Good job, Tahiri!" Jaina exclaimed weakly as I lifted her onto my speeder. "Shhh... let's get you to the sick-bay," I said softly. I looked up to Anakin. "You can take care of Alema, right?" He nodded. "Go ahead," He said. I sped off to take Jaina to the sick-bay. Cighal will be thrilled, I'm sure. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Anakin Solo~I looked up at the Twi'lek captured in her own trap, she was scowling at me. "How am I gonna get you down from there?" "Let me spare you the thought," Tahiri laughed, and suddenly the net dropped all 15 feet to the ground. "I love doing that," She (Tahiri) jumped down from the tree-top, then grasped her forehead. "Whoa...I think I got down to fast." She swayed. "Tahiri?!" I exclaimed in concern. She stopped swaying and looked at me like I was stupid or something. "I'm fine, Anakin," She grinned. "Hey!" My dad sounded fairly disappointed. "We missed capturing Alema AND curing Tahiri?" Tahiri walked up to him. "Actually, I'm s'posed to be in bed, but I couldn't resist a little excitement," She motioned to Alema. "We just need someone to do the dirty work." Mr dad looked very eager to do so, so I wasn't surprised when he volunteered to take care of it. I walked up and hugged my mom. "I'm so glad you're alive! When we heard about Myrkr, we... it was horrible," She gushed. I looked back at Tahiri and motioned for her to come to me. "I wouldn't be alive now if it weren't for Tahiri," I said softly. Mom smiled and hugged Tahiri. "We have a surprise for you, Tahiri!" Mom took a small cylinder from her pack. "It's the antidote." Tahiri snatched it from her eagerly. "How do I take it?" She asked. Mom laughed. "You just swallow it," Tahiri looked uncertainly at the bottle. "Go ahead, it's not as bad as it looks," Tahiri swallowed it and gagged at the taste. "-but it's still pretty bad." I laughed. Tahiri's heart was beginning to mend and the illness had left her. I hugged Tahiri tightly and Mom went to stand by Dad. "You really had me scared when you showed up to save the day," I whispered. "I'm full of surprises. But I'm sorry I scared you," She whispered back. I took a deep breath. "Tahiri, there's something I've got to-" Tahiri quieted me by placing a finger over my lips. "Let's take this slow, okay?" I nodded. She leaned in and rested her head on my chest. "Good thing you promised you'd never leave me." I lifted her chin towards me. "Never leave me, Angel." "I won't," I pulled her towards me and pressed my lips to hers. Too bad there was no happily ever after... at least, not yet. Find out what happens next in Betrayed.
