The ship Obi-Wan ended up borrowing from his former padawan was nothing less than scrap metal with wings and an engine, barely able to fly without losing pieces as it went. Jupiter was rather amused by its condition, emerging from the cargo hold where she had been hiding to join Obi-Wan in the cockpit. "Quite a ship you have here, sweeting."

"Sweet mother of-! Jupiter!" Obi-Wan declared, recovering from his shock as she smiled broadly, floating forwards and taking the seat beside him to help monitor the ship's systems. "What in blazers are you doing here?" He demanded to know, switching between looking at Jupiter and the outside. "You are supposed to be in your quarters resting like the doctor ordered!"

"Well my sweet, seeing as we both know that this daring attempt you are about to undertake will no doubt result in your capture, I thought it prudent to simply bypass the part of the adventure where you break out of prison, send a distress signal for help before getting captured once more and then wait for me to come and rescue both you and the duchess, and simply come along from the beginning to save precious time." She reasoned simply, flicking a hand as she flicked a few switches then pulled out part of the underside of the control panel, ducking down to try and bypass the compressors so that they were not blowing out so much smoke.

"The point of me going alone was so that no one would know that the Jedi were ever involved in this! Honestly Jupiter, you are in no state to be rescuing anyone. Your pain is getting worse again, I can sense it in you." It was true however Jupiter elected to ignore it. "How did you even get on board?"

"Master Windu trained me exceptionally well, Obi." She quipped back at him, emerging from under the controls to shoot him a glare. "And it is too late to turn back now, so forward is the only option. Do not fear, I shall not allow myself to be seen. You may go in and play the hero, rescuing your dearly beloved. Think of me as…insurance. A contingency plan." She gave him a final look before returning to her work. "Satine is my good friend too and I want to ensure that she is safe. Besides. Who else is going to keep this monstrosity from collapsing around you before you even get to Mandalore?" Ripping out a part of the sockets, Jupiter showed him the rusting sparkplug. "This was about to spark an electrical discharge and quite possible neutralise all systems."

"Ah. Well then, it appears that I have no other choice." Obi-Wan conceded as Jupiter dusted off her hands and stood up, leaning against Obi-Wan's chair and loosely draped her arms around him, resting her head against his as she sensed his worry for Satine.

"Satine is a strong woman, Obi. She will be alright." Jupiter promised him softly as he reached up and held her wrist against him without thinking, sighing softly as her warmth enshrouding. Brushing her lips against his temple, this startled Obi-Wan from his thoughts, sending her a quick look however Jupiter only winked. "For luck. You will need it to get inside." With that she returned to her own seat and pretended that nothing had even happened, checking on the hyperspace course and ensuring that they would be able to make it there without falling apart. Obi-Wan, still stunned, eventually resumed his own chores, however his eyes continually strayed towards Jupiter, unable to keep the conflict inside him from bubbling forwards. Love was a dangerous concept for Jedi, however even as he went to rescue Satine, a woman he had loved as a boy, he could not ignore the woman who was beside him this moment. Everything inside him defied each attempt he made to put aside those feelings to be unattached. He simply could not do it.

As they exited hyperspace, Obi-Wan took control of the piloting and guided them down to Mandalore, the ship shuddering and sparking in places where it shouldn't. As Obi-Wan made a less than desirable landing, Jupiter gripped onto her seat tightly just to keep upright. "Well that went better than expected." Her friend mused optimistically however Jupiter shot him a dark look.

"This was Anakin's doing, was it not?"

"Yes, this is his ship." Nodding her head, Jupiter grit her teeth.

"I will box that boy's ears when we return. This ship is a disgrace." Shaking her head Jupiter began to fix it up as best she could. Of course, she was nowhere near as skilled as Anakin, however both he and Shmi had taught her much over the years of her girlhood, so she could at least make a few repairs whilst she was waiting.

"Stay here, I will be back soon enough. Hopefully." Obi-Wan said to her and Jupiter nodded her head.

"Be careful, Obi-Wan." He caught her gaze, seeing the apprehension there so he gave her a cocky smile, tilting his head to the side before winking at her. This earned a minute giggle which Jupiter tried to supress, not wanting to appear like a little girl however Obi-Wan found the sound extremely charming. Without another word he exited the ship and Jupiter listened to him conversing with the guard, keeping quiet as Obi-Wan led him back inside before knocking him out and taking his armour to disguise himself with.

Jupiter made all the repairs she could, working her way through before finally she settled down, taking a moment to sense her surroundings. What returned to her, however, was dark and ominous. Extreme power mixed with unbound hatred and anger, causing Jupiter's head to suddenly spike with pain until she groaned, clutching her brow tightly as she stumbled, almost falling to the ground but she recovered herself, taking a deep breath then entered a place of serenity, pushing aside the intense sensations and much to Jupiter's surprise, the pain eased off.

Once she could function properly again, Jupiter knew the right thing to do. It was as if she was being guided with a hand on her back, pushing her forwards. Abandoning the ship, Jupiter stepped out onto the docking platform and moved forwards, glancing around before she noticed some Death Watch guards close by. The one Obi-Wan had knocked out was tied up and Jupiter had hidden him among some cargo on the landing pad, so she quietly stole away from them, searching for someone else.

Finally she found one. A woman with the red armour, standing alone with her back to Jupiter. Searching around her, Jupiter saw surveillance droids close by, so she moved forwards and tapped the woman on the shoulder. "What do you…" Before she could finish, Jupiter touched her finger to the woman's brow and instantly she fell asleep, dropping immediately and Jupiter hurriedly caught her, pulling her into one of the hangers where she placed the armour on over her clothes, disguising herself before she then woke up the Death Watch warrior. "What…what happened?"

"You will leave here with a change of heart. You wish to promote peace and happiness instead of war and bloodshed." Jupiter murmured, waving her hand across the warrior's face and their eyes instantly became dreamy. Although warrior Mandalorians were supposed to be trained against the Jedi mind trick, Jupiter speculated that by entering someone into a half trance like state, their mind would not be so resilient to suggestion. Thankfully, it worked.

"I will leave here with a change of heart. I wish to promote peace and happiness instead of war and bloodshed." She repeated before her eyes rolled to the back of her head and she instantly fell back asleep. Satisfied, Jupiter began to move forwards. Just as Jupiter was about to leave, a commotion and a large explosion suddenly engulfed the landing bay, causing Jupiter to shrink back and hide in safety. No doubt Obi-Wan was returned.

Sure enough he and Satine raced from their speeder and into the ship, however with the sheer overwhelming numbers that they faced, Jupiter immediately knew that they were trapped. That ship would not be able to escape them. A little irritated that Jupiter had been correct, she quickly stole away, running from the port in order to avoid being noticed. The darkness was getting closer, she could sense it approaching. In order to understanding exactly what Jupiter was up again, she had to witness exactly who it was with her own eyes.

As a transport speeder approached, however, a cold sensation rushed over her. Now she knew why these feelings were so familiar, she had felt them before. Only once and very briefly, however it was certainly the same. Darth Maul. He was back. Jupiter stared in shock at the red and black horned beast who had killed Qui-Gon Jinn, the man who had become like a father to her in the space of days. A spark of anger touched her however Jupiter pushed it aside. Revenge was not the Jedi way and Jupiter could not confront him now, not when Maul seemed to have another at his side. One who was larger, broader, with yellow markings and with longer horns though two were broken. An apprentice? It couldn't be…the Sith really were returning.

As the ship was brought down, Jupiter watched in horror as Obi-Wan and Satine jumped so she quickly threw out her hand, giving a tug to pull them both down to the ground with the Force, pushing the ship the other way without making it appear too obvious, though debris still fell around them. They were captured, then. Jupiter grit her teeth. With two Sith and an army of warriors behind them, Jupiter knew that this would be no easy task. She had to find help from somewhere.

A stroke of genius hit her and quickly Jupiter scrambled away, sliding down the roof of the hanger before she then ignited the thrusters of her jetpack, wobbling only slightly before she quickly learned how to manage its flight and balance. Time was of the essence and for Jupiter, it was quickly running out. With all the focus on the duchess and Obi-Wan, Jupiter theorised that the prison would not be so well guarded as usual, allowing her to enter with virtually no resistance.

The first guard was easy to take down as Jupiter merely walked up behind him and struck him on the back of his head, knocking him out cold. The others, Jupiter merely used the Force one way or another to quietly diminish their numbers until finally, she went unchallenged. Any survivors from the attempt to first protect Mandalore against the Death Watch take over and then the attempt to free Satine from being imprisoned would be kept here. Jupiter merely had to find them.

Taking off her helmet Jupiter carried it under her arm, searching until finally, she reached a cell where a young boy with pale hair sat, wearing an academy uniform. "Are you an ally of Duchess Satine?" Jupiter asked and instantly the boy's head shot up, frowning at the stranger.

"Well…yes. She is my aunt. Who are you? Are you here to taunt me, Death Watch scum?" He snarled however Jupiter tittered her tongue.

"You should watch your language young man, especially since I need your help to rescue your auntie. Come, show me where I can find others to help free her. We must be quick." Jupiter opened the door and the boy instantly was on his feet, blinking in surprise. "Do not be afraid, I am Jedi Master Jupiter, here to help you without the consent of the Republic. I hope you do not mind the intrusion." She greeted, giving a warm smile as the boy then bowed.

"I am Korkie, I can't believe I'm meeting a master Jedi! Do you know Ahsoka Tano? She came here to teach my class some time ago." He said as he fell into a quick step beside Jupiter, who blinked at him.

"Why yes, Ahsoka is my little brother's padawan. We are good friends." She revealed before waving a hand. "However now is not the time, unfortunately. Show me everyone who can help us. Advisors, allies, guards, everyone."

"Right." Korkie nodded before he started to run forwards, opening doors to the cells and Jupiter waited, keeping an eye on the surroundings as a mass of people eventually came to stand before her.

"Follow my lead. Korkie, can you find a ship to transport everyone off this planet?" Jupiter questioned and the young man instantly nodded his head with mature confidence. "Then I want for you to take a group to help you as well as anyone who cannot fight. It is your job to get them to safety. The rest of us will storm the palace. Is there anyone else we can call upon to help?"

"Yes, there is my other aunt Bo. She now leads the rebels who defected from Death Watch after Vizsla was killed by that red monster. I can contact her." Maul. Jupiter suspected that he had had a leading part in this conflict. Shaking her head to dispel the pain, Jupiter quickly organised everyone before she placed the helmet back on her head, resuming her disguise before then hurrying back to the prison entrance. The guards remained unconscious and Korkie looked rather impressed as he stepped over two fully grown men. "You really are a master, aren't you? But you're so young."

"I am exceptionally talented, my young friend." She said to him with amusement. "Now go, we will meet you at the landing bay. Be prepared for an immediate take off."

"Yes ma'am!" Jupiter instinctively went to protest at being sir, however she caught herself in time, mouth gaping slightly before she laughed to herself. The group that were to follow her, a group of rebels and city guards quickly armed themselves and boarded a transport, giving Jupiter a firm nod to signal they were ready which she returned. Taking a calming breath, Jupiter flew straight for the palace as her comrades hid themselves away, waiting for her to clear the front gates so that they could sneak inside and position themselves in defensive lines at the front gates, both outside and in before then setting up a line at the doors which would then open into the main hall.

Jupiter could sense the darkness in there, the maddening wrath that the two Sith carried. It would have been terrifying to a normal person to feel, however Jupiter overwhelmed it with her own willpower, striding forwards, shedding her armour and drew out her lightsaber as the two guards jerked in shock. "She's a Jedi, kill her!" Lifting a hand both weapons were cast away and the two men rose up into the air, struggling and kicking before Jupiter tossed them aside, knocking them into blackness as she then gently pushed open the doors.

By concealing herself with the Force, no one noticed her enter until she was fully inside, walking towards where she saw Obi-Wan rush to catch Satine as she fell from Darth Maul's grasp, his red blade piercing her torso all the way through. Jupiter froze, eyes widening in horror as weapons spun around to train on her but she ignored them, staring as Obi-Wan rushed forwards, calling out her name. "Satine! Satine…" Already Jupiter could feel her life force waning as she coughed and choked, struggling to breathe but even with the little energy she had left, she reached up and gently caressed Obi-Wan's face.

"Remember…my dear Obi-Wan. I have loved you always." She whispered and for a brief moment, Jupiter felt the pain in her head become overshadowed with that which she felt in her chest, eclipsing it completely as she felt Obi-Wan's despair. "I always will…" Unable to move, Jupiter continued to stare as Satine went completely limp, the light that had always seemed to shimmer around her fading.

Maul smirked, lifting his eyes to notice the new figure and he smirked further. "Another friend of yours Obi-Wan? Well then, I shall kill her too so that you may feel double the pain. You will languish forever in your own helplessness to save those you love." He practically spat, however Jupiter suddenly snapped out of her shock. She expected to feel anger or rage. She expected to lose control and slip into another episode, however nothing happened except the complete opposite.

Jupiter felt peaceful. As serene as the moon and the stars on a perfect clear night. It gave her power and strength, making her exhale softly as she replaced her lightsaber onto her belt. "Destroy her." Maul ordered, however before anyone could even move, Jupiter raised her hand. A Force blast so powerful blasted outward that it shattered the window and crushed Maul into his throne, making it crack as Jupiter then lifted her other hand and Satine levitated from Obi-Wan's grasp, floating towards her as Jupiter began to glow with a shimmering radiance that Obi-Wan had never seen before.

"Jupiter…" He breathed, staring as Jupiter suspended Satine before her, hands slowly moving up and down the body as golden tendrils seeped from Jupiter into Satine. She was still alive, Jupiter could feel her pulse and sense the Life Force still within her, however it was very faint. She had passed out from pain before her heart could give out, so Jupiter poured everything she had into healing Satine whilst a constant barrier erected itself around herself and Obi-Wan who kept low on the ground, lifting an arm as someone tried to shoot however the blaster bolt froze when it hit the barrier, suspended in the air. Obi-Wan's eyes widened, staring as numerous more bolts joined the first but none of them penetrated the protection Jupiter had placed around them.

"Kill them! Kill them all!" Maul roared and his brother, Savage, gave a deep roar, charging forwards and attempted to smash through the barrier however he was repelled backwards, thrown completely off his feet. "Agh! You little witch!" Maul glowered at the woman, however he felt something was familiar about her. Very distant, but he was certain he recognised it. Her face…not only was he sure he had seen it before but also, it reminded him of someone. The same hairstyle, even the same eyes. Qui-Gon Jinn. Could it be? Was it possible? As Maul snarled, he felt infinite loathing for the woman as slowly, Satine began to breathe again until finally, she gasped for breath.

"Satine!" Obi-Wan hurriedly rushed to his feet, catching Satine as the light faded away and Jupiter lowered her down into his arms.

"Run, I shall cover you." Jupiter ordered, not stopping for one moment as she drew her blade and let down the barrier. Immediately blaster bolts flew directly forwards however she deflected the ones that were necessary, quickly serving them back and took out numerous warriors before she whistled. From the doors burst the rebels and palace guards, giving her more cover.

"Bring me that one alive!" Maul ordered, pointing to Jupiter and Savage rushed forwards, igniting his blade however Jupiter was ready for him as Obi-Wan ran with Satine unconscious in his arms. Without hesitation Jupiter jumped, kicking her feet into the monstrous looking creature's face as her back arched, using her lightsaber to block an upwards sweep before then continuing to deflect, moving quicker than Savage could keep up with and a firm push forwards with the Force sent him sliding back, however he slammed a blade into the ground to keep him from being repelled too far as Maul raced to join him.

Jupiter glanced between the two, backing away into the large and spacious porch as the conflict around them raged. She did not know their skill level, however Jupiter was not about to let either of them place one clawed finger on Obi-Wan or Satine. Besides, Maul killed Qui-Gon. She was not about to forget this fact any time soon. Maintaining the serene sense of mind Jupiter had managed to enter, she launched the first attack, taking the brothers by surprise.

She moved in tight circles, adjusting her body height in the blink of an eye by either crouching down or leaping up, vaulting over their heads and placed a hand on the larger one's shoulder for extra balance, twisting around to then strike Maul from behind with her foot, making him stumble forwards but he quickly recovered. Jupiter caught sight of Obi-Wan's lightsaber on his belt so she Force pushed them back, opening up some space then summoned it to her, allowing it to fly to her palm whereby she then activated it, the icy blue blade crossing with her own orange one as she took up a reverse grip and settled into a boxing stance. Now she meant business.

With a roar the brothers surged forwards, throwing all of their anger and rage into the battle however Jupiter very quickly fell into a pattern, sliding and tilting her body to avoid their stabs and slashes, allowing them to push her back towards the exit before finally, she took her chance. With Obi-Wan's lightsaber she twirled Maul's out of his grip, sending it flying away from him before she reversed the grip once more, her other blade deflecting Savage's attacks as she gripped the hilt tightly then powered her fist upwards, punching Maul on the underside of his jaw and she heard a satisfying crunch as he was thrown onto his back, landing heavily as Jupiter then swung her leg around, gliding in a circle before then slicing a cut open on Savage's leg, making him bellow with rage but in the brief moment of his lack of focus, Jupiter was suddenly passed his defences and her nose was inches from his, making his eyes widen in fear to see the glistening and calm orbs of winter blue ringed with indigo.

His double bladed lightsaber flew from his hand and suddenly he was being crushed into the wall with the Force, threatening to collapse his chest. "Brother!" Maul tried to come in from behind with an attack, lifting his lightsaber high however Jupiter lashed out with a back kick, sending him flying once more before all at once, she turned and fled through the doors, leaving the brothers to recover as she followed the last of the rebels out. "That…that heathen whelp! She distracted us…allowed the rebels to escape!" Maul realised, seeing that the rest of his forces were already dead. "I'll kill her. I'LL KILL HER!"

Behind, Jupiter could hear Maul's threat but she brushed it aside. Perhaps she could have killed them, however she simply could not find it in her heart as each time she had looked into their eyes the moment before she had intended to land the killing blow, she had seen nothing but fear and helplessness. They were pitiful creatures really, they trapped themselves in their own misery. Shaking her head to dispel the thoughts, Jupiter followed after Obi-Wan and the others, making her way through the battle that raged all around her. Buildings were on fire, bodies were falling out of the sky and everywhere there was the stench of death. Now she understood why Satine was so against violence. If she had witnessed these horrors once and had the opportunity to avoid them again, Jupiter would have done the same thing as the duchess.

Blasters came at her from behind so Jupiter leaped, escaping her speeder before it could explode and landed on the back of another, the girl who was riding it looking back in alarm but Jupiter gave a nod of reassurance. "I will protect the rear, you focus on simply getting us to that ship."

"Gotcha!" She answered before increasing the speed as Jupiter stood up on the back of the speeder, finding her balance quickly then used both her own lightsaber and Obi-Wan's to deflect blaster bolts. A Death Watch warrior came at her but Jupiter merely held out her hand and pushed them out of the sky, not once breaking pace. "Okay, get ready!" Looking over her shoulder, Jupiter bent her knees before jumping from the speeder, landing in a roll before she raced to the ship where she could see Obi-Wan in the defensive ranks, blasting away with a gun however when he finally spotted Jupiter and the rest of the rebels, he shouted for a retreat.

"We're leaving! Let's go!" Jupiter held out her hand, leaping over the barricade and her fingers slipped into Obi-Wan's warm and secure grasp as he hurriedly pulled her inside, the ramp lifting as Korkie and the others boarded also. The ship lifted off, receiving heavy fire however as the thrusters pushed forwards, they quickly left Mandalore behind them and made a break for freedom. Everyone was silent, breathing heavily and Jupiter was no exception. The Sith brothers had pushed her to work hard to fend them off and she could still feel herself trembling from the adrenaline rush. "Jupiter? Jupiter are you hurt? Jupiter talk to me."

Obi-Wan was holding her face with both hands, urgently trying to get her to respond to him however after she blinked a few times, the trance like state she had been in lifted and she finally let go of the breath she had seemed to be holding throughout. "Obi…" She murmured before quickly embracing him, relieved that he was alright. "I knew you would end up the damsel once again."

"Alright, alright, you told me so." He answered, equally relieved as he gripped her close, a hand sliding through her hair to curl his fingers around the back of her head and neck. Despite the battle, Jupiter still retained a fresh scent about her and she was so soft and comforting to hold, bringing him solace in his moments of brief despair before she had strode in and shaken the entire foundations of his world. "Jupiter…" He started to say more however they were interrupted as people began to start panicking, wondering what they should do and where they should go so Jupiter quietly stepped back from Obi-Wan, giving him an understanding look.

"We should finish what we started and get them to safety. You take the ship, I'll take the people." She decided before she held up his lightsaber to him, returning it. "I think you dropped this."

"Where would I be without you my dear?" He exhaled, gratefully taking back the weapon before moving to speak with the pilot. Turning around Jupiter calmed everyone down, urging them to take a seat and do not panic.

"Korkie, where is your aunt?" Jupiter asked quietly so he pulled her towards a private room where Satine lay sleeping still, a little pale and motionless however definitely breathing. "Satine? Satine? We need you to wake up." Jupiter called softly, stroking back the duchess's hair as she knelt before her, Korkie standing worriedly nearby. The duchess stirred, giving a small whimper as her eyes pressed tightly together before slowly, she opened her eyes.

"Obi-Wan…" Jupiter chuckled good naturedly.

"No, I am far more agreeable."

"Jupiter!" Instantly Satine was awake, gasping as she sat up. "Where…what…how…?" Her hand flew to her stomach, stroking it down to find a wound of some kind however all she located was a singed hole through her clothes where the lightsaber had pierced. "I should be dead. I thought I was dead." Her eyes flickering with confusion as she gently placed her feet on the floor, Jupiter remained kneeling before her, taking her hands in hers to hold them reassuringly.

"You are not dead Satine, you are very much alive. You are boarded on a ship along with your nephew and several of your advisors who remained loyal to you. I believe there are also several palace guards, a few of Korkie's academy friends and whomever else we may have picked up along the way." Jupiter inform her. "You are safe now. It is all over for the time being, rest assured Obi and I will not allow anything happen to you." However the duchess was still frowning, touching her stomach where the wound should be.

"But that monster, he impaled me. I remember feeling it so clearly. Was it just a dream?"

"No auntie, it was real." Korkie supplied, making Satine look up at him. "My friend Rosa saw it when she went with Master Jupiter to retrieve you. She told me that Master Jupiter did some Jedi power trick where she healed you completely even though you were already dead." He said with a hint of amazement in his tone but Jupiter hastened to correct him.

"Resurrecting the dead is impossible, Korkie. You aunt was not actually dead when I reached her, merely fainted. I possess a strong ability to heal the wounded and ease ailments by using the Force to sustain life for an extremely short period of time which then allowed me to erase your mortal wound. There will not even be a scar." She teased, making a small smile touch Satine's lips.

"And my people?" Jupiter dared not say so she looked to Korkie who immediately nodded his head.

"You had best let me explain everything to her." He suggested so Jupiter graciously excused herself, stepping out of the room to give them some privacy. She returned to the other survivors who immediately demanded to know of the duchess's health so she reassured them, promising that the duchess would live but she needed rest and a little peace for the time being. With the advisers appeased, Jupiter made her way to the cockpit where Obi-Wan was plotting a course.

"Where will they go, Obi-Wan? Satine will refuse to go to Coruscant but she cannot go back. Where can they go where they will be safe?" She asked in a whisper after the other pilot had left, wanting to speak in private.

"I do not know, Jupiter. That will be up to the duchess to decide." He answered, keeping his eyes fixed forwards. "For the time being I am plotting a course to a neutral system so that we are at least not followed." Reaching out to make the jump, Jupiter placed her hand on top of his, forcing his eyes to meet hers.

"Are you alright, Obi-Wan?" She asked him, sensing his distress. For a moment he could not speak, looking away from her. He pushed the lever forwards, entering hyperspace before finally he leaned back and pressed a hand over his eyes.

"I held her in my arms, dying, Jupiter. There was nothing I could do as I was powerless. If you had not been here…I dread to think what could have happened."

"The Force guided me. I had faith that together our strength would be enough to save Satine." She responded, wanting to reach out and comfort him further but she stayed her hand. "You should not let yourself suffer for something that was out of your power to prevent or control, my sweeting. Having too much of either will only result in failure." Obi-Wan looked up, observing her thoughtfully.

"You have become exceptionally wise and resourceful, my dear. It is no wonder you so quickly raised to the rank of Master Jedi."

"No quicker than you did." She returned, earning a soft chuckle from him. The door opened and they both looked to find Satine standing there and immediately they both stood up to bow.

"Please, it is I who should be on my knees thanking you." She insisted, stepping forwards and reached out to take both their hands. "You saved my life, I am forever in your debt."

"There are no debts among friends." Jupiter responded, stepping forwards and embracing Satine securely. "I am just glad you are safe now. I feared the worse when I sensed your life force almost disappear, I am simply sorry that we could not prevent the civil war from returning to your world." Her eyes were deeply apologetic and remorseful as she pulled back, however Satine merely smiled with understanding and pressed her hand against Jupiter's face.

"So long as there are people like you and I out there in the galaxy who strive for peace, then there will always be hope to endure." She said before then turning to Obi-Wan. "Obi…I…" Looking away, Jupiter sensed that she was only invading on more private matters so she slowly stepped aside.

"I must check that our stabilisers are…stable. Please, make yourself comfortable duchess. We will be exiting hyperspace in about an hour." Jupiter invited, bowing her head before leaving. The moment the door closed behind her, the smile on her face faded and she leaned against the wall, turning her head to look painfully back towards the cockpit. She could not hear what they were saying but since Jupiter had no desire to eavesdrop, she slowly pushed herself away, feeling heavier and in more pain both from physical affliction and from something else entirely the further away she went from Obi-Wan.
