Last time: Sasha was attack by some strange shadow thing.
Now: The group heads home, but Sasha notices something that she didn't before they left.
Chapter 2- Where did that come from?
Jac leaned back with a satisfied sigh as he watched the swirls of hyperspace fill the viewport window. Cayden leaned back as well and looked over his shoulder at his girlfriend sitting in one of the passenger seats behind him. Sasha was zoning out in her seat.
"Coruscant to Sasha, are you there?" Cayden asked with a smirk as he waved his hand in front of her face.
Sasha looked up to him. "What? Oh yeah I'm here."
'Are you sure?" he asked as he turned his chair around. "You look out of it."
"Yeah, I'm just a little tired is all," she stated.
"Well go get some rest," Jac said. "We won't be home for another three hours."
Sasha nodded and stood up heading for the back.
"Alright I'll go for a nap, but if I wake up with something drawn on my face, that person gonna want to sleep with their eyes open," Sasha said with a smile.
Both men looked at each other freaked out by that and nodded.
"We promise!" they said at the same time.
Sasha laughed as she headed back to the passenger compartment. Once back there, she curled up on the couch and slipped into slumber.
Three hours later…
Sasha woke up with a yawn. She looked over to the chrono on the wall to see that she had been napping for three hours. She had slept the whole trip. I didn't realize I was that tired, she thought as she stretched.
Suddenly she felt an itch on her right hand. She removed her fingerless glove and scratched her hand. It then started to burn as she continued. She stopped and looked down at her right palm. Her eyes went wide as she spotted what was making her hand itch. There was a black ring in her palm. It looked almost like she had been branded, but it didn't feel like it was. Instead it just felt like a bump in the shape of a circle that was black.
Wait a second… She realized that Jac and Cayden could have done this to her while she was sleeping even after she told them not to. Grabbing her glove, she stormed to the cockpit.
"Alright who is the moron that did this to my hand," Sasha asked the two men as she held up her right hand.
Jac and Cayden turned to look at her. They looked at her hand then at each other, then at her again.
"I didn't do it," they said it at the same time.
'Sure…" She said unamused.
Cayden stood and made his way over to her. He grabbed her hand and turned it over. Gently, he brushed his fingers over the strange mark. He then looked up at her with concerning eyes.
"Does it hurt?" he asked.
"A little," she said.
"Well we didn't do this to you," Cayden said reassuring her. "Trust me. He passed out in the driver's seat and I was doing homework." He pointed to a stack of data pads on the seat behind the copilots.
'Then who did this…" she started to ask then realized who did it. "The figure…"
"The what?" Jac asked.
"That strange shadow figure that attacked me," she said. "It must have done this."
Cayden frowned as he continued to caress her hand. They both realized how long he had been holding it and he released her hand with a slight blush on his cheeks.
"Well we can wait to see what the healers think about it," Jac said. "We just arrived home."
He pulled the ship out of hyperspace over Coruscant. Sasha nodded as she took a seat and replaced the glove on to her hand. Cayden patted her shoulder as he made his way to his seat. Whatever happened to her hand, they were going to find out.
REVIEW! PLEASE AND I'LL GIVE YOU A GIFT FOR THE NEW YEAR!
