"You want me to do what?" Mika's voice asked in disbelief.

"You heard what I said." I argued through the comm. link.

"Kira I don't-"

"Just do what I tell you Tae," I snapped. "Just shoot my ship up a bit, make it convincing."

"If you say so…" The farghul replied firing at my ship causing it to shake.

"Good." I said then pulled on my armor. "Hurry up we don't have much time before the council shows up to 'rescue' us."

"Right." She said firing enough to make it look like we were actually under attack; I grabbed the blaster rifle and shot around the ship then trotted back to the escape pods then used the Force to crush the keypads. My hands raised up and crushed the overhead panels when I heard a coughing from the closet.

'Shit, he's awake.' I thought 'How'd that happen? I gave him a shit load of insomnia pills!' then opened the door; Windu glanced up with glazed over eyes.

"What's happening?" He slurred. "I heard… blaster… shots…"

"We're under attack Windu, don't worry." I said hastily "I will handle it."

"O….k…." He said trying to stand up.

I Force pushed him down. "You don't want to do that." I said punching him in the forehead knocking him back out. "Mika!" I yelled through my helmet. "Get me out of here."

"On it." She said as her ship hooked up to mine a few moments later she appeared through the portal. "Long time no see, Kenny."

"Help me drag Bozo to your ship." I said. "Do you have anywhere we can smuggle him should we get caught?"

She laughed. "Please, Kir, I'm a smuggler and you ask if I have a place to hide him."

"Right. I knew that." I insisted as we pulled Windu out of the closet and dragged him to Mika's ship. I stopped and unclipped Windu's lightsaber glancing at it in disgust.

"What are you doing?"

"With all this carbon scoring it makes us look like we didn't fight back," I said then sliced through a few unimportant parts of the ship then tossed the lightsaber aside.

"Now what are you doing?" Her voice asked with confusion.

"If they never uncover this ship then that weapon will go down to the seas of Kamino."

"Why…?"

"That lightsaber killed Jango." I stated with anger flashing through my eyes.

"Ah." She said. "Well let's make sure this thing gets moving towards the seas."

I nodded and set the ship to move into hyperspace in ten seconds. "We have ten seconds to get detached so move it!"

We raced to Mika's ship as she detached from the shuttle as it broke into hyperspace crashing into the planet below.

"Now what?" Mika asked.

"Go to Topica City," I said with slight hesitation. Mika nodded and flew her ship down to the familiar landing pad I used to cross almost daily. "You can stay here or go. It doesn't matter to me."

"What about Windu?"

"He's out trust me," I said. "I gave him a handful of insomnia pills and punched his lights out."

"Charming, Kira, really."

I grinned and walked down the ramp as my heart started beating. 'Relax, Kira, it's just Kamino. Why are you so worked up?' I asked myself. 'Oh I know. This was your home and where some of the best times of your life happened. This was your life with Jango.' I let out a long breath as I palmed the keypad wondering if it would still open to the code Taun We had given me. To my relief it did, I half expected the Kaminoan woman to appear as she always did when I returned home, I wasn't too disapointed when she wasn't there. I glanced around at the familiar place of eye-blinding white walls and white floors with the black lines that ran across the walls. I followed the long corridor hoping I wouldn't be noticed, walking past several Kaminoans I stopped at the apartment door that I spent a good ten years living.

"What's wrong?" the tall felinoid asked at my hesitation.

"I... can't go in." I said in defeat.

"The keypad doesn't work?"

"I think it will."

"So why can't you go in?"

"It's just…" I began. I didn't feel emotionally ready to go back home.

Mika caught on. "It may help."

I hesitated then held my hand to the keypad, within seconds the door slid open. I felt like turning around and leaving right then when I felt a coldness touch my shoulder, I glanced over but saw nothing.

'It's okay, Cyar'ika. You're home.'

"Jango." I breathed. "Hey Mika, I need a minute."

"Go on ahead, Kira. It's okay." She smiled. Then with a hesitant step I walked into the apartment. I walked through the hallway coming upon the kitchen; everything was as we had left it, I walked slowly to the counter as my mind seemed to be toying with me. Memories of Boba, Jango and I filled the room. Boba grinned stupidly as a vision of myself stood in the center of the kitchen trying to coax Jango into dancing; he tried to refuse but eventually gave in and pulled her close taking her hand in his then spun her around bringing her close again kissing her on the lips.

I touched my own lips trying to remember what it felt like to kiss such a man, of course I could remember it but Force only knows how much I missed it. The vision faded into another when Boba stood on the other side of the counter with crazed eyes and handfuls of chocolate cupcake missiles, I glanced over and saw Jango and me crouched down slightly dodging the oncoming chocolaty missiles.

"EHHAAEEELLLLHAAHHHH!" The crazed ten year old screamed, though his voice faded and ghostly, before launching another cupcake and running into the living room.

Jango looked over at her. "Never under any circumstances give Boba chocolate."

She gave him a look of all seriousness. "Yes Sir."

They both raced off into the living room. I grinned at the memory as another played.

Slone and Boba were sitting at the table, Slone was maybe three and Boba five, coloring in their notebooks. Jango walked in from the living room and Boba sprang on him pleading for new stories of his latest bounty while I cooked dinner.

I smiled feeling tears seeping through my eyes as they scanned the room taking in every detail; I walked through to the living room as more visions played before my icy-blue orbs, I then made my way to Boba's room, still messy with toys that were thrown across the room, coloring books on the desk, space ship figurines hanging from the ceiling. His many drawings plastered the white walls and on his bed lay his bantha toy he carried around everywhere he went. I sat down picking up the dirty bantha that was missing an eye had several stitchings in the sides and slober stained on it's nose. I ran my hand through the faux fur. I sighed and carried it with me to my old bedroom, the bed was made and everything was in order, Jango was somewhat OCD about the bedroom being clean. I looked over at my side of the bed and saw a wedding photo, my first kiss as a married woman with several other photos of me and Jango, Jango and Boba, Boba and me, Slone and Boba, Me, Zam and Jango. I looked over at Jango's side and saw the picture of me kissing a baby Boba's forehead; I still wondered how he managed to get that without me knowing it. I sat down on the bed setting 'Bando' aside looking at the picture of Jango and myself on our wedding day.

"I miss you, Jango." I said to no one in particular. Coldness touched my cheeks.

'I miss you too, Kirs.'

I sighed resting my head in my small, gloved hand crying silently.

"Kira?" Mika's voice asked with concern, she trotted over once she saw I was crying. "K?"

"I miss him so much, Mika." I said rubbing my eyes. "It's not like we broke up and he's dating another woman. He's dead and he's never coming back…"

"Jango wouldn't want you to cry about him, KK," She said rubbing my shoulder. "You gotta stay strong for Boba, Slone and the baby."

I sighed. "I know," I let out a shaky breath. "I just want to give up sometimes... you know? Sometimes I just want to lay down and die."

She frowned and hugged me tightly. "Hey don't talk like that," She soothed then held me out at arms distance. "Death is not goodbye; it's a see you later."

I gave her a confused look. "What do you mean?"

"You'll see him again, Kira, I promise."

I held my breath for a few short second trying to regain my composure. 'Stop crying, Kira.' I tried to order myself only to fail horribly. "I'm sorry you have to see me like this, Mika." I said with a weak and small voice.

"You have every right to cry, Kira."

I sighed trying to will myself to calm down.

I had told Boba and Slone the same phrase when things went wrong, I never thought I'd have to say it to myself.

"This is what you save your tears for."

Wow depressing right? I just felt that it seemed like Kira was forgetting Jango or not in as much emotional pain as she should be with all considering so this is why it's so sad. Don't worry we'll get back to the more exciting parts after this :)

Also on my profile I wrote up some bios on my characters so if you want a general idea of what they look like and such.
