Sickness
Han Solo woke to his little baby sister crying. She had been doing that a lot for a whole week. He hadn't slept good in that amount of time. But he didn't mind, his little sister meant the world to him. And she wasn't feeling well. So he was going to make sure that she was going to get better. He had told himself, that if she didn't get better in a few days, he was going to take her to the closest med bay. He didn't know how he was going to do this. He had already told Shrike that his little sister was sick, but he didn't care. He had to go to Dewlanna, she would do something for her. He reached over and picked up the tiny form and held her close to him, "Don't worry Lils, I'll get you to a doctor soon." He said using the nickname, that he only would be able to use. He sighs as he gets up. He needed to talk to Dewlanna.
Dewlanna, was in the kitchen getting that nights supper ready. She was used to Han coming in with Lily every day. Actually today they were a little late. That wasn't like them. And she knew that Han had been having some trouble with the small child. She had been sick, and she needed to make sure that they were both alright. She wished that Han would hurry up and make his way to the kitchen. Then she would be able to help him if he needed to take his sister to the doctor. She hoped that he wouldn't. She had become close with Lily as well as Han. And there wasn't much that anyone could do about that. And she was going to make sure that they were both safe and sound. And if she needed to get them to the doctor, well then she would.
Han made his way to the kitchen. He didn't like the way Lily looked, she had barely any color, and he was worried that he was losing her. He didn't know what had happened but he had become close to his little sister, and he wanted to make sure that she was alright. And he would do anything to make sure that she was safe and sound. And if that meant breaking the rules to see a doctor, then he would take the punishment. He wasn't going to let Lily be the one to suffer because he was too chicken to break the rules for her. He smiles when he reaches the kitchen, "Dewlanna?" He whispered. When she appeared he smiled, "Hey, I think something's wrong with Lily. She has no color." He says as he produces the young one to the elderly wookiee.
Dewlanna looks at Lily and shakes her head and she growls softly at Han, asking him what he thought was wrong with her. When he just shook his head, she knew that he had no idea what was wrong with his little sister. And that was dangerous, they had to get her to a doctor, and they needed to do it fast. Lily looked like she was fading, and there was nothing in the galaxy that was going to stop her from taking her to the doctor. She smiles at Han and motions him to follow her. She knew where the shuttles were and that was where they were going to go, they needed to get a shuttle to go down to…what planet were they on? She looks out the window and growls one name to Han Alderaan.
Han looks out the window and smiles, it was a beautiful planet. He would be happy to take her down there. He knew that it was a peaceful planet so that meant no weapons. So Shrike wouldn't be able to use a blaster if he stayed on planet. He smiles to himself and looks up at Dewlanna, "I think that's a great idea. I know it's risky, but we can't afford to be careful right now. Lily is in a lot of danger right now and I won't let any harm come to her." He said as he followed her out of the room into the shuttle bay, "So how is it that we're going to get past Shrike?" He didn't know and he didn't think he wanted to know. If Dewlanna just sent both he and Lily down to the planet, he could blame it all on himself, but that wasn't going to be likely. He knew that Dewlanna would want to come with them, to make sure that they were both alright.
A few hours later Han looks at Dewlanna as they came up to the med bay, "Do you think she'll be alright?" He asked as calmly as he could. He was starting to feel a little ill himself. He wasn't sure what was wrong with his little sister. But he was going to find out and then he was going to pay for her treatment. He had been saving some of his pick pocketing money for something like this. He had to be secretive about that, if Shrike found out then he was a dead boy. He sighed as they got out of the speeder and made it to the med bay. Han takes Lily from Dewlanna's arms and makes his way to the front desk. He was going to make sure she was alright.
The receptionist looks up and notices Han walking towards her, "Hello, how may I help you today?" She asked politely and she looked down at the baby in Han's arms. He couldn't be the father, he was too young. And maybe just maybe he had stolen the baby. Though she didn't see how that could be. The baby and the boy had a lot in common in looks. So maybe if she just forgot about calling the police. She would assist them as best as she could. She could tell that the baby was very sick, and she wasn't going to allow anything to happen to such a helpless little creature.
Han smiles nervously, he had never done anything like this before, "Hi my name is Han Solo, and this is my little sister Lilian Anna Solo and she's sick. I didn't know what to do, so I brought her down here. There's something very wrong with her." He said as he looked at her, "Please help us." He said looking at his sister. He wanted to make sure she was safe and well. And he knew that he couldn't leave this place without getting her to see a doctor. "She's very sick, and I know you will be able to help her. I'm her older brother. And I'll sign any papers you need me to sign. And if you want a grown up to do it, I have a wookiee here that will be able to sign the papers."
The nurse looked down at them and smiles, "I will see what I can do." This was the reason that she had become a nurse. So that she could help folks like the young man and his sister. She disappears from the desk so that she could find a doctor. She knew that the child was very sick and she wanted to make sure that she survived the night. She wouldn't be able to sleep if she didn't do anything. And she was going to do this well. She finds a doctor and quickly informs them what was happening. They follow her back to the children, "This is Han Solo and his sister. His sister is very sick and needs some medical attention."
The doctor looks at Han and nods, "Come with me young man. We'll get her looked at and I promise she'll be alright." He motions for them to follow him. He lead them to a room and looked at Han, "Alright Son, lay her on the bed." When Han set the child on the bed the doctor moves over to her and starts to examine her. He could tell the child was in pain and not feeling well, but it didn't show on her small face. That surprised him. He smiles gently at the child as he starts to examine her. He was going to make sure that she was safe and well. HE looks at Han, "I'm afraid she'll have to stay over night." He smiles at the young man, "And you and your friend are welcome to stay." He said as he starts to put together an IV for Lily. He smiles at Han.
Han returns the smile and makes his way to the bed and reaches out and strokes the child's head, "It'll be alright Lils. I'll deal with Shrike when he finds out, don't you worry I won't let him lie a hand on you. I'm going to make sure you're safe and well." He said as he bent down and kissed her on the forehead. He wasn't going to let anything happen to her. He was going to make sure that Shrike was going to take out his anger on Han. It was his fault that Lily was here, he was the one that took her. And Dewlanna was paying, so he didn't know how angry the man could get. But he was going to make sure nothing happened to Lily.
A few days later Lily is released from the hospital. Han smiles as he takes her in his arms, she was well. He was glad, that she was with him. And now that she was here, there was nothing in the world that would change his mind about leaving her. It was very hard to leave her at the hospital when they asked him to. But that was something he was going to have to get through his head. He smiles at Dewlanna, "I'm just glad that's over." He said with a smile.
