Wookie Fur

by Mountain Frost

Late at night, Chewbacca wonders the dark Coruscant streets when he hears crying. He follows the noise to a dark abbey. Keeping on the trail, he hears that it comes from a small box. Slowly, he opens the box. *one-shot*

The Coruscant streets where now vacant, the stars were covered in clouds, and a lone figure walked to the side of the street. He grunted to himself everyone in a while. It started to rain and the figure didn't have any cloaks.

Chewy moaned and put his arms around him. He was lost. He had been on vacation, but he couldn't find his hotel. The rain started to pelt harder, and Chewy's fur had started to get wet. As he walked, he came to a dark alley. Seeing that it was a dead end, he continued to go on his way. But, something stopped him; a whimper. Chewy stopped in his tracks and looked down the messy alley. He started to walk down, following the sound of sniffing and small crying. He slowly and silently kept walking, but he stopped when a box moved. He went over to it, the small timid cries getting a little louder. Chewy lifted up the box, and started when he saw a small Corrilian boy dressed in black and white. Once the box had been lifted, the boy jumped and pressed his small body against the wall, his eyes wide in fright. His hair was dripping and wet and he was shivering. He looked to be about seven, and tears where in his eyes and on his cheeks.

"W-who are you," the boy asked, fear evident in his eyes.

Chewy grunted softly to the boy.

"I'm H-Han Solo," he replied timidly. Chewy held a hand out to the boy, but the boy backed away in fright.

"D-don't touch me," he said, his voice quacking. Chewy looked at the young boy, and started just to talk softly to the boy. After a couple minutes of this, the boy slowly edged forward. With his small hand, he timidly touched the wookie's fur. It was soft, and he started to caress the comforting fur. Before the little boy could even blink, the wookie grabbed him, and held him in a tight hug.

"Let go of me," Han shouted, struggling uselessly against Chewy's strong arms. Soon, he gave up, but Chewy didn't he kept holding the boy and after a while, the boy looked up at him.

Chewy asked him if he'd like to come with him to his hotel. The boy nodded.

"You won't hurt me will you," he asked uncertainly.

Chewy shook his head in shock. He told him that he would never hurt him ever.

"Chewbacca, I like you," he said.

Chewy grunted.

Both Wookie and Corrilian walked off into the night, the Wookie's arm around the boys shoulders, letting him know that he would never let anything happen to him.
