Prologue

Emergency klaxons blared through the air. Military personnel ran in all directions: some going to their fighters, some to the command center and others to their support positions. A voice blared over the loud speaker to inform the soldiers of the situation.

Two adults rushed into the hanger. They stopped next to the opening to a corridor. The woman clutched a small, black haired boy to her chest. Her brown hair was pulled back into a braid. A few strands had escaped the braid and framed her face. The boy clutched the front of his mother's tunic with one tiny hand. The other hand rested on her chest. The raven-haired man leaned down and placed a soft, lingering kiss on the woman's full lips. He then bent down to brush a kiss on the top of her swollen belly. He straightened and took the small boy from his mother's arms. The boy clung to him and pressed his lips against his father's cheek. The man gently pried the boy from his arms and handed him back to his mother a few moments later. He kissed the boy's forehead and the woman one more time. He then turned and ran towards his fighter.

The woman clutched the boy to her chest as she watched her husband run to his craft. She waited a few more seconds, and then turned and rushed down the corridor to the command center. She stood at a transparisteel window and watched the fruitless attempt to defend the planet.

Lights flashed. The woman felt a flash of warning and ran back from the window. A loud explosion rocked the command center. The boy let out a cry.

"Jaina!"

Jaina Solo Fel looked at her father as he gently grabbed her arm.

"We have to get out of here. Now," he told her. She nodded.

"Davin, I need you to go to Grandpa," she told her son as she handed him to her father. She couldn't hold him and run in her current condition.

Jaina and Han raced to the hanger bay. They ran to the Millennium Falcon, dodging other personnel evacuating the base. Jaina and Han ran up the ramp. Han set Davin down and rushed to the cockpit. Jaina scooped up her son and strapped him into a child's seat in the hold. She nodded to her mother as she entered the ship. Leia dropped a bag on the floor. Following Leia were several Jedi and workers. Leia ordered all to strap in.

Tahiri Velia slid into the seat next to Davin and glanced at Jaina. Jaina placed a quick kiss on the toddler's forehead, and then turned and raced to the cockpit. She sank down into the co-pilot's chair and joined her father in prepping the ship for launch. Han grabbed the yoke and took off.

Han flew the Falcon out of the hanger. Jaina gasped at the sight before her. The Yuuzhan Vong were raining destruction on the planet below. Fighters exploded all around and hot chunks of yorik coral flew by. Jaina flipped on the comm to the general channel and heard General Wedge Antilles repeat his evacuation order.

The Falcon rocked as plasma assaulted it. Han swore. The quad guns, with Leia and Meewalh at the controls, attempted to blast coralskippers off the hull.

Jaina gritted her teeth as she saw coralskippers blocking their escape vector. She could feel her unborn daughter's stress and placed a hand on her stomach in an attempt to calm her.

"Falcon, we're clearing the way out. Be ready," Jag's voice commanded over the comm.

Jaina dialed Jag's private frequency, "Jag, get out of there."

"Jaina, get you and the kids to the Shelter. Please."

The connection ended. Jaina sighed as the remaining pilots of the Twin Suns Squadron cleared the way for the Falcon and other craft. She began programming the first hyperspace jump to the Shelter.

"What the blazes is that?" Han said in shock.

Jaina looked up from the console and followed her father's gaze. She gasped. A large, dark green Yuuzhang Vong vessel loomed overhead. It wasn't like anything Jaina had ever seen before. It had four tentacles and a large mouth-like opening. It approached two X-Wings and a Y-Wing. Jaina and Han watched in horror as the vessel lurched forward and absorbed the fighters.

The vessel picked up speed. Han yelled a warning into the comm across all channels for the remaining fleet to get out of the battle zone and fast.

"No…"

Han turned to look at Jaina. Her fingertips drifted over her mouth as the mass approached an X-Wing and a Clawcraft. Han rested his hand on the hyperdrive lever.

"Jaina, we have to go now," Han said gently. She barely registered what he said. She watched as the two ships juked and jinked to avoid the vessel to no avail. They stood no chance.

Han pulled the lever and the lines of hyperspace filled the viewport. Jaina slowly removed her crash webbing. She stood up on shaking legs. Han place a hand on her arm to support her. She took a deep breath and walked from the cockpit to the hold. Ignoring everyone, she unstrapped Davin, picked him up and went to one of the cabins. She sat down on the bunk, holding Davin.

He wasn't dead, she told herself. She would have felt it.

"Mama?"

Jaina looked down at Davin, "Yes, sweetie?"

"No be scared," he said, patting her cheek, "Daddy be okay."

Jaina dropped a kiss on his forehead. She prayed to the Force that he was right.
