I know the day after May 4th but I was busy with school stuff but it is 'Revenge of the 5th' today so I'm not that late. But thanks for all the support for this story and it's one of my most popular ones as well!

Also, I don't know why, I'm not getting notifications for story or reader alerts. Are any of you having trouble with that as well?

I own nothing.


Chapter 11

A couple of Snow Speeder's zoomed across the Hoth landscape. Pilot Zev Senesca, who was leading the group and also part of Jyn's Rogue Squadron, concentrated on the scopes and sensors, hoping to find the group that went to look for Luke. He knew that they were alive, especially Jyn, she was his commanding officer, kind, was a role model and was stubborn. So it would probably take a lot for something to kill her.

The next day when the storm cleared, Echo Base called everyone who was available to find the missing group, so far, they hadn't gotten anything.

Zev checked one of his monitors when he heard a low beep from one of his monitors.

"Echo Base… I've got something! Not much, but it could be a life form." Zev hopefully said.

His craft banked and made a slow arc, and went off in another direction. He then switched over to a new transmitter and hoped for the best.

"This is Rogue Three. This is Rogue Three. Commander Erso, Captain Solo, Commander Wren, do any of you copy? Commander Skywalker, do you copy?"

For a moment nothing happened. But some static started resonate and then a voice.

"For the love of Force, Zev, you took your damn time! We were freezing our asses off!" Jyn's annoyed voice said.

Zev chuckled in relief and said," Glad to see your alive Rogue One, and your personality as well."

"Funny, you got our coordinates, get someone to head to our location. Also get medical prepped."

"Copy Rogue One. Echo Base, this is Rogue Three. I found them, I repeat, I found them. Someone send transport for them immediately and get the Infirmary set up."

"Copy Rogue Three, this is General Syndulla. The Ghost is in the area and we'll get them. Head back to base." Hera's voice said.

Jyn, who was outside the cave with Sabine, sighed in relief. Throughout the night one of them took watch for a couple of hours and switched, none of the creatures came near, which was good. Luke had also drifted into consciousness a couple of times but only for a moment, he would mutter something about Yoda, Qui-Gon and the Dagobah System. Neither Jyn nor Han knew who they were but Sabine did. She had been with or near Jedi enough to know that Luke must have had a vision of sorts and he need to talk to Obi-Wan when they got back.

Sabine sighed and said," Told ya we make it."

Jyn nodded and said," Yeah, with our track record, why break it now."

Sabine chuckled and said," Yeah, I hear ya."

They got Luke out and covered while they saw the Ghost approaching from a distance. They all wave until the Ghost lands. The ramp opened with Zeb, Rex and a couple of others ran out and got Luke from them and put him on a stretcher.

"We managed to keep him as warm as we can, but don't know the extent of the injuries he might have." Jyn said.

"Don't worry Commander; we'll take care of him." A medic said.


Later, they got Luke back to the base and they immediately got him to the Medical Center and into a Bacta Tank to heal his wounds. Jyn stayed by his side until the medical personal had told her leave so they can do their job. It was a couple of hours later until Luke was released and sent into a recovery room. He had a couple of scratches from the Wampa attack but overall he was feeling ok. He had just talked to Ben about his vision and what was said. Obi-Wan was surprised that his old Master came to him and told him to seek out Yoda. Obi-Wan then decided that when Luke was better that they would borrow the Phantom from Hera to head to Dagobah.

After that he left to tell everyone else to come and see Luke.

When Luke was alone for a moment, a thought crossed his mind that he slightly remembered from the caves.

He remembered he had regained consciousness for a split second but not enough to open his eyes. But he could remember someone's soft lips had kissed his cheek and he knew it was Jyn through her Force Signature. He even felt her presence next to him and her head on his shoulder as she fell asleep.

He felt his heart soar at remembering that, and made him like her even more. He did have a crush on her and admired her. She was a strong person and knew how to handle herself. Sure she kept to herself sometimes but he was the first person she would talk to if something bothered her. From what he heard about Jyn when she was first brought to the Rebellion, she wanted nothing to do with it but the late Captain Cassian Andor, who was part of Jyn's original team, had helped her see what the Rebellion did and how was bringing hope to the Galaxy.

Jyn had spoken a couple of times about him and the rest of her original team, but hurt her to talk about them. He and the others knew she still felt a little guilty about being the only survivor of the ground team. But the day after the battle and when they were busy evacuating, she seemed at peace about it but still missed her friends. She didn't say what caused it but he didn't want to pry into anything personal unless she was ok with it.

He got out of his thoughts when the door opened and a familiar pair of droids came in, along with some people.

"Master Luke, sir, it's so good to see you fully functional again!" 3PO happily said.

R2 beeped his good wishes as well.

"How are you feeling kid? You don't look so bad to me. in fact, you look strong enough to pull the ears off a Gundark." Han joked.

"Thanks to you, Jyn and Sabine." Luke said with a smile.

"Yeah don't mention it. Erso here didn't leave your side until the medical team told her to leave." Han said and looked at Jyn with a slight smile, who was leaning against a wall.

Jyn tried not to blush, shrugged and said," I was worried, it wasn't the first time you worried me or anyone else."

Luke rolled his eyes in good humor and said," Just like Ben always says 'Crazy Skywalkers'."

Jyn nodded and the door opened again and Leia came in. Han saw her and gave her wolfish smile.

"Well your Worship, looks like you managed to keep me around for a little longer."

Leia wasn't amused and said," I had nothing to do with it. General Rieekan thinks it's dangerous for any ship to leave the system until we've activated the energy shield. So I'm sorry to say that you and the others will have to wait on the trip."

Before Luke could respond Han beat him to it and said, "That's a good story. I think you just can't bear to let a gorgeous guy like me out of your sight."

Jyn and Luke rolled their at the statement while Leia glared at him.

"Yes, because every female on base is just trying to knock down your door to see you." Jyn sarcastically said and Luke chuckled.

"She's right, I don't know where you get your delusions, laser brain." Leia shot back.

Chewie barked a laugh and Han half-heartedly glared at him and then at the females in the room, mainly at Leia.

"Laugh it up, fuzzball. But you didn't see us along in the South passage."

Luke's interest was peeked a little and looked Leia and then at Jyn. Jyn mouthed 'don't ask' and Luke nodded a little.

"She expressed her true feelings for me." Han smugly said.

Leia flushed and looked annoyed and said," My...! Why, you stuck up... half-witted... scruffy-looking... nerf-herder!"

Han looked offended and said," Who's scruffy-looking?!" Looks at Luke. "I must have hit pretty close to the mark to get her all riled up like that, huh, kid?"

Jyn shook her head and pinched the bridge of her nose. She would've thought with all the arguments those two had together, Han would've figured out that provoking Leia was a bad thing. But like Leia had told her once, he had a thick head.

Leia gave Han a look and said in a matter of fact tone.

"Why, I guess you don't know everything about women yet."

Jyn eyes widened and felt a little jealous when Leia leaned over to Luke, using her hands to hold his head and kissed him on the lips. Jyn wasn't the jealous type but somehow she felt jealous. She knew Leia was only doing it to get under Han's skin but couldn't help but glare a little at the Princess. Leia finished, turned her heel and walked out while leaving everyone else in the room slightly dumbstruck.

Jyn grinned a little and walked over to Luke and said," First kiss with a Princess, Skyboy? Your one lucky guy."

She then did something to get Han more annoyed and kissed Luke on the cheek and walk out. If she would've turned around, she would've saw Luke put his hands behind his head with a smug look and Han's unhappy expression.

She wasn't out of the medical wing the loud speaker came to life.

"Headquarters personnel, report to Command Center." The announcer said.

It went off a couple of more times as Jyn headed over to it with Han and Chewie following her.

"Don't say anything." Han said.

Jyn glanced at Han and said," Wasn't planning on to. But you should apologize to Leia."

"It's none of your business." Han said.

"I'm just saying, I know you both aren't fans of each other but just apologize, ok?"

Han grumbled a response and Jyn took that as a yes.

They got into the control room and found Leia and General Rieekan, who was looking grimly at a console screen.

"What's going on?" Jyn asked.

"We've picked up something outside the base in zone twelve, moving east."

"It's metal." A controller said.

"Then it couldn't be one of those creatures that attacked Luke." Leia said.

"Maybe it's a speeder." Jyn suggested.

"No. Wait... there's something very weak coming through." The controller said.

The controller pressed a button and a strange signal came through."

"Sir, I am fluent in six million forms of communication. This signal is not used by the Alliance. It could be an Imperial code." 3PO said.

"It isn't friendly, c'mon Chewie, let go take a look. You coming Jyn?" Han said.

"I'll be right there." Jyn said. "Cold, why didn't we pick a place with water and sun. Something tropical" Jyn thought.
