Her name is Jack Solo. Jack wasn't her ideal name but it's what was given to her. Jack is a perfectly modified clone of the infamous Han Solo. She's the single most dangerous woman in the galaxy with a blaster, her very first blaster was made from broken droid bits, which she made herself when she was about five. When Jack reached age eight she became the single best pod racer. At 16 she got into gambling, and a majority of the time she won everything. And now, finally at age 19 she was thrown into a massive hurricane. Something that changed her life forever, she met a girl named Janis. Janis was one hell of a pilot, the two of them often journeyed together. But it all ended when Jack professed her love for Janis, Janis responded quickly with "Will you marry me?" And that my friends is what brings us to today.
Janis stood in the temple in a rather beautiful dress, Janis had long flowing black hair that was softer than silk. Her eyes were a deep shade of purple, and her skin was very pale. Janis cleared her throat and looked at the bishop and then she looked at her toes. "Where the hell are you Jack?" She said to herself. Little did Janis know that Jack was clear across the city at a bar. Jack stood leaned with her back against the counter, Jack looked back and forth at the local folk going about their day. Jack had deep brown hair that came down to her jawline, and she kept her bangs brushed to one side. Her eyes were brown and her skin was a rather fair color. She wore a blue leather jacket and a tight low cut black shirt. Her belt, though very loosely put on, kept up her brown pants which were tucked into some black boots.
Jack folded her arms and sighed, "Come on, where are you Wong?" Wong, he was a gunsmith who could fix, trade, and enhance a blaster without even batting an eye. He could take a puny little blaster into a powerful hand canon.
"Hey Jack, aren't you missing something important today?" The bar tender asked, Jack turned her head and cocked an eyebrow.
"I don't catch your drift."
"Aren't you getting married?"
"Getting married?" She blinked, suddenly her eyes went wide, "OH SHIT!!!!" She then took off out of the bar, she quickly ran down the street brushing by everyone she could. Being a clone, her speed and stamina were greatly increased by that of a normal person. She ran as fast as her legs could carry her until she slipped and fell on her back, she groaned and sat up. She noticed she was finally at the temple. She sighed in relief, she turned her head and saw Janis glaring at her. "Hey babe."
"Really?" Janis said, "Hey babe? That's all you can say?!" Janis was now back in her normal flight uniform.
"Yeah..."
"I've been here for the past hour or so wondering if you would ever show up!!!"
"Well hey, I like to-"
"Make a dramatic entrance?" Janis said finishing her sentence, she was able to finish it because this wasn't the first time Jack was late to something like this. In fact this was the fifth or sixth time. Janis sighed and just wrapped her arms around herself, "Jack...I don't think we can do this..."
"What?" Jack stood up and brushed the dirt off of herself, "Of course we can babe, we can do this together." She placed her hands on Janis' shoulders. "Hey, when have I ever steered you wrong?"
"Are you joking me right now?" Janis said looking into Jack's eyes. Normally Jack would respond with something sarcastic or quirky, but today she could tell that Janis was dead serious. "I don't think I can do this anymore Jack."
"Of course we can, come on I'll make it up to you."
"How Jack? We've done so much and yet you never change. You are always late and you never seem to fully understand my feelings. Hell I don't think you even understand your own feelings."
"I do understand my feelings J." She said, "I know that I love you, you're the only one in the galaxy for me."
"Really? Then why is it that you can never show up for our wedding?"
"I can explain..." Jack said, now at a total loss of words.
"Really?" Janis said pulling away, "I'm sorry Jack, I've been trying to do this for too long. You may understand your own feelings, but you don't understand the feelings of others."
"Wait...baby what are you saying?" Jack said trying to force a smile, "I mean, come on, it's me Jack! Jack Solo! The girl you fell in love with!"
"Yeah...the girl I fell in love with promised me that she'd never be late for anything in the life we would share." Janis sighed, "I think we should split Jack."
"W-Wait, hold on let's not be irrational he-"
"I'm not being irrational Jack, I want to see other people. I want to be able to marry someone who will actually be on time to our wedding. I want to love someone..." she sighed and then looked Jack in the eyes, "I want to love someone who I immediately wont fall out of love with."
"Babe..." Jack said as tears fell from her eyes.
"I'll Uh..." Janis cleared her throat, "I'll see you around Jack." Janis then turned around and started to walk away. Jack stood there, her heart about ready to burst out of her chest. Jack swallowed, her mouth became dry, she had no idea what to do or where to go now. Jack ran one hand through her hair and put the other in her pocket, she looked up and down the street. People were watching, Jack felt embarrassed, she never meant to cause a scene. Jack hung her head and then started to walk away, she eventually made it to another bar. She then went and sat at a table in a corner and laid her head face down.
"Oh, what's wrong?" A voice said.
"I'm an idiot, that's what's wrong." Jack said not looking up.
"Oh," the voice said, the voice belonged to a woman, "So, what's got you down? Boy trouble?"
"No, girl trouble. My fiancé just broke everything off with me."
"Did you deserve it?"
"Look, kid I don't ne-" she then looked up, there was a girl sitting across from her. She had blue skin and dark blue hair and red eyes. The girl smiled,
"Hey,"
"What do you want? I was sitting here first." She said,
"I've been sitting here for an hour."
"Whatever, just leave me alone." Jack then laid her head back down.
"Mm." The woman said, "Anyways, I'm Thea."
"I said leave me alone."
"Talking about your feelings help." Thea said folding her arms, "So, where you from?"
"Mmmm..." she groaned.
"I'm not really from anywhere, I was born on a ship in the middle of space." Thea smiled, "Anyways, my dad used to work as an engineer for the Rebellion. He worked with a lot of droids."
"Go away..." Jack said softly, Thea just smiled.
"Anyways, I used to help construct the casings for lightsabers."
"So this is hell..." Jack said, she growled and looked up at Thea. Thea just smiled, Jack glared at her.
"So, What was your fiancé's name?"
"Her name was Nudya."
"Nudya?"
"Yeah, Nudya Bidness." Jack said putting her head back down.
"Ah," Thea said, "What about you? What's your name?"
"I thought I said go away."
"I'll go away once you tell me your name."
"It's Jack."
"Jack?"
"Yep, Jack."
"Does that mean your last name is Ass?"
"No..." Jack said looking up, that was a rather quick response and Jack liked it. "It's Solo."
"Nice to meet you Jack Solo." Thea said leaning forward,
"The pleasure is all mine." She said almost in a sarcastic tone.
"Where you from?"
"Oh, you know, here and there. Mostly there than here."
"Ah, so like a wanderer?"
"Yeah, Janis and I traveled a lot."
"Janis? Your fiancé?"
"Yeah."
"What was she like?" Thea asked leaning forward.
"Janis?" Jack sighed, "Where do I begin...she's honestly the most beautiful woman I've ever laid eyes on. From the moment I met her I knew I loved her. She always brought out the good in me even when I didn't think there was any to begin with."
"That's sweet."
"What about you? Got a man?"
"No, I'm not really interested in men."
"What are you more into?"
"Women."
"Hm." Jack then looked at Thea, Thea looked back at Jack. Before Jack knew it she was laying next to Thea in bed naked. Jack tried to catch her breath, "Wh-Whered you l-learn that?" She asked still a little flustered.
"Just something that my people do when they reproduce." Thea said exhaling, "It works on both men and woman of my species, mostly because we can be both male and female at the same time. So if a male were to reproduce with another man they could still make a baby."
"Would..." Jack paused and her eyes widened, "You and me didn't make a baby did we?" She turned and looked at Thea with a worried expression.
"No, if I wanted to have a baby then you would have known." Jack sighed in relief, she then paused.
"Wait, how would I have known?"
"My skin would have turned pink and my eyes would've turned blue."
"Ok," Jack paused, "How would two females make a baby?"
"It depends,"
"On what?"
"If this lasts longer than a one night stand."
"Well..." Jack said, "I'm not kicking you out in the cold, so the least I can do for you is have you sleep in my bed." Thea smiled, "But you have to make breakfast in the morning."
"Hm," Thea wrapped her arms around Jack's neck and kissed her chin. "Deal."
"Now get some sleep." Jack said turning onto her side facing away from Thea.
"Alright, goodnight Jack."
"Night Thea." Jack sighed, did she really just do that? And on the day Janis left her? Thea was special, Jack would give her that, but not as special as Janis. Jack looked over at her desk next to her bed, there was a picture of her and Janis in a small frame next to the clock. Jack watched the seconds go to minutes and then the minutes go to hours. Eventually Jack had fallen asleep, eventually, the very next morning Jack woke up to the smell of food. She yawned and rubbed her forehead, she sat up and looked around her room. She got up and walked to her closet and started to put her clothes on. Once dressed she walked into the kitchen area.
"Hey," Thea said, she was sitting at the counter, "There wasn't much to make so I just made some rolls and some leftover meat from I think a week ago."
"I could always go for leftovers." She grabbed her plate of food and started to eat.
"Anyways, whenever you want me too I'll take my leave."
"Why?"
"I can tell you don't really like me," Thea said, "I mean Janis just left you and I couldn't possibly replace her." Thea smiled, Jack looked at Thea. She sighed,
"Thea..."
"No, I understand-"
"Thea, listen to me." Jack said, Thea looked at Jack, "You're a really cool person, and I'd love to get to know you more. But, you're right, Janis did just leave me and I wasn't thinking straight. But, we can always be friends and I'd love to have someone to travel with." Thea smiled, "I mean, if you dont have someone to travel with already."
"Well, I've never traveled the galaxy."
Jack smiled back at Thea, "Well Cool," she put some food in her mouth, "Maybe we can go steal Kylo Ren's lightsaber or some shit." Thea laughed,
"Yeah, But then what would he throw a tantrum with?"
"He'll probably use General Hux's face against the console or something." Jack smiled, "Anyways, I need to get some stuff together from here and we can go okay?"
"Sure."
Jack winked at Thea before walking back into her room. Jack shut the door behind her, she hadn't gotten used to this room. It was her fourth apartment in two weeks. She grabbed her bag from her closet and put her clothes and everything in it, she put her blaster in the holster across her lower back. She slipped her leather jacket on and finished packing everything else, she turned and looked at the small picture on the desk, she picked it up and looked at her and Janis. "Don't worry Janis...I'm going to find a way back to you..." she then put the small picture frame in her pocket. She zipped up her bag and put it on her shoulder and walked to the living room. "Let's g-" she then noticed that Thea had pulled up her pant leg, with her foot on a chair, she had an attachment on her leg. "Woah..."
"Hm?" Thea looked over at Jack,
"Hot legs." She said, "Er, I mean...um..."
"It's fine," She smiled, "I was just putting my sword away."
"Your sword?"
"Yeah," she grabbed the attachment that was on her leg, she flicked her wrist and a massive blade came out of the device making a rather deadly looking sword.
"Daaaaamn..." Jack said,
"Yeah," she said, "My father made it for me. It can cut through the toughest of armor. He gave it to me as protection."
"Do you know how to use it?"
"Yeah," Thea said with a smile, "Don't you know me?"
"No."
"Really?" Thea raised an eyebrow, "Blue skin...red eyes...sword?" Jack just shook her head. "My dad is Admiral Thrawn."
"..." Jack blinked a few times before she dropped her bag, "What..."
"Yeah, well he never raised me. I was raised by several assassins. I was raised to be the deadliest woman in the galaxy."
"Really...?"
"Yeah, is that bad?"
"No..." Jack walked over to Thea, "It's actually kind of hot." Jack smiled and the two started kissing. After a while of making out they looked at each other, "We should go," Jack said.
"Yeah."
"Let's go." Jack then went back and grabbed her bag and she and Thea left. They walked to a lot and found Jack's ship.
"Woah..." Thea said with a smile.
"You like her? She's one of the fastest ships in the galaxy." Jack opened up the door and the two of them walked inside. A loud squeal was heard, Jack turned and smiled.
"Hey!" Jack knelt down as her B.B. droid rolled over to her, "Hey, how are you BB-18?" She beeped happily. "Yeah! I missed you too!" 18 turned and looked at Thea, she then looked at Jack and booped in a confused manner, "Yeah, she's not Janis..." 18 beeped a few times, "Janis and I broke up..." 18 hung her head, "I miss her too, but this is Thea. She's going to be traveling with us for a while." Jack then stood up, "Come with me Thea, I'll show you where the bunk is." Jack took Thea through the ship and then came to a bedroom, there was two beds on opposite sides of each other, there was a walk-in closet and a table in the middle of the room. The bed that was messy was obviously Jack's, "You can have that one." Jack said pointing to the cleaner bed.
"Thanks..." Thea said carefully walking over to the bed stepping over bras and other assorted clothes. "Do you ever clean up this place?"
"Every once in a while, Janis and I normally take turns. I guess this week would be my week." Jack said starting to pick up some clothes. Jack then looked over at Thea, she had bent over to start cleaning too. Thea wore tight leather pants that really showed off her butt, Jack cleared her throat and kept cleaning. "So...anyways Thea, have you ever traveled before?"
"From place to place, I prefer to stay in one place and call it home every few years."
"Sounds like fun." Jack said throwing the clothes into a hamper, "I really need to get a droid that can clean clothes..." Jack said scratching the back of her head.
"Or you can do it yourself." Thea said putting some clothes in the hamper.
"What?"
"Don't tell me you've never done your own laundry before."
"Well...no, if it didn't smell like sweat or last week's food I kept wearing it. Once Janis came into my life she mostly did the laundry."
"That's disgusting Jack."
"Yeah,"
"Do you at least know how to shower yourself?"
"Yeah," she lifted her arm and smelled her armpit, "But, it's been a few weeks, so tell you what. I'll go shower, and then after that you can teach me how to do the laundry."
"Sounds good." Thea said with a smile, Jack smiled back and then went to shower. Thea then rested her face in her palm, she then rubbed her temples, "What have you gotten yourself into Thea?" She sighed then looked around the room, at least the living space was nice. She then went to her bed and started to unpack, after a while BB-18 rolled into the room. She beeped. Thea turned around, "Oh hey, you're 18 right?" 18 nodded, "Do you live with Jack?" 18 nodded again, "Mm, do you like Jack?" 18 nodded really fast, Thea smiled, "I like her too, she is a little messy though." After a conversation with 18 Jack came back into the room with a towel wrapped around her.
"Hey," She said, she walked into the closet and started to get dressed, "I see you met 18."
"Yeah, he's very cool."
"She."
"What?"
"I think you mean she. 18 is a girl."
"How can you tell?"
"The way she makes her noises."
"Oh..." Thea looked at 18, "That makes perfect sense."
"Yep." Jack then walked back out fully dressed. She had black pants on and a purple long-sleeved shirt that had a v-neck.
"What are you wearing?" Thea asked,
"My buddy Lando has these made for me."
"I see..." Thea didn't know who this Lando guy was, but he dressed like a hippie.
"Anyways, show me how to do the laundry." Thea glared at Jack, "Please."
"Alright, where's your laundry room?"
"It's right next to the bathroom." Jack picked up the hamper and took Thea to the laundry room. "Here it is."
"Alright," Thea said, "First put all your clothes into the laundry machine." Jack followed her instructions, "Then you add in the soap and detergent,"
"What's that?"
"It's..." Thea looked around before finding the box. She opened it and took out a square, "This."
"Ok," Jack put it in and shut the door to the machine.
"Now just push the wash button."
"Alright." Jack then pushed the wash button and the clothes started washing. "Hm, that was easy." Jack smiled, she then started to walk towards the cockpit. "Where do we go first?"
"Anywhere is good for me."
"Well, we could go to Daxam, that planet has beautiful sunsets." Jack said,
"Mhmm..." Thea looked around, "The inside of this ship...it looks vaguely familiar."
"Well it was inspired by the Millenium Falcon." Jack said as they reached the cockpit, "This would be like a 2.0 as the kids would call it." She sat down and started to turn everything on.
"I see," she said, "Jack...can I ask you something?"
"Sure,"
"Do you know who Han Solo is?"
"No clue, why? He sounds handsome."
"Hm," Thea folded her arms, "Well it's just that..." she paused.
"It's just that what?"
"You are a lot like him."
"Trust me doll, there's no one in the universe like me. Now strap in."
"Alright," Thea then sat down and buckled in.
"So," Jack said as the engine started, "Should we do something good or bad?" The ship then started to take off.
"Uhh..."
"Ok, I should rephrase that." They then took off and left the planet's atmosphere, "Should we do something stupid? Or something REALLY stupid?"
"What do you have in mind?"
"Well, we could find the First Order and knock a couple skulls, we could go ride Tantons."
"Have you ever done anything safe?"
"No,"
"Why?"
"Danger is my middle name." She looked over at Thea and winked, "I'm joking...I don't have a middle name."
"Hmmm," Thea put her hand on her chin, "Well, I have always wanted to know what the inside of a First Order ship looks like."
"Alright," Jack started to plot a course, "Something REALLY stupid it is." They then took off to lightspeed.
