Months had passed, and Luke slowly got used to the idea of having Mara gone. Their son had sprouted to be a reddish blond, and he had grown to need his father's arms for comfort. Luke wished desperately every day that Mara would find her way home, finding the bed so large and so cold every night, and his heart empty without her love and friendship. Luke could tell that Leia and Padme had given up on Mara returning, and he could see their concern in their eyes when they looked at him. He was completely aware of their thoughts of worry over him and Hal. Fortunately, Luke knew somehow, that he would see Mara again. He just had to wait while Mara worked out whatever it was in her heart that she needed to deal with. While it wasn't his forte, Luke would be patient, and wait for his ladylove to come back to him.
Meanwhile, Mara's condition deteriorated severely since she'd arrived on planet. Though she'd briefly seen an MD droid, her body refused to mend itself from the birth. She'd lost pounds, and was constantly tired. Drawing upon her savings, she was able to find a small home, and get food, but she knew she was slowly deteriorating. The droid had proscribed for her some medicine, and wanted to perform some surgery, but she refused. She would be all right, her body just needed time. Lying down slowly on the couch, Mara curled up to read a book and ended up staring at the ceiling until she lost consciousness.
Luke woke up suddenly in the night, his warning sense flaring and his son bellowing at the top of his lungs. He reached out and scanned the apartment with the Force, and saw nothing was the matter. He jogged quickly into Hal's room and picked up the screaming baby. He winced as Hal proceeded to scream his lungs out, and reached out with the Force.
"Mara." He whispered slightly, realizing that he could feel her again. Her shields were down, and she was in trouble. He quickly walked over to the comm. and called up his sister. "Leia."
"What?" She yawned, her hair all over the place.
"Its Mara. I can feel her. Something's wrong, we have to find her. She's sick or something, we have to find her!" Luke started, trying to rock his screaming son.
Taking a minute to absorb everything, Leia nodded. "Any idea where she is?"
"Its…" Luke thought, reaching along their bond and trying to sense her location. "Its some sort of jungle planet, only a little bit of population, its…its somewhere near Mykkr I think."
"Alright, I think I can find her. Just gimmie a minute." Leia said, and looked up something in a database near the comm. unit she was using. "Here, I think I found it. YES! I found it!" Leia grinned at him.
A/N: I know that's short but it's a good part to end, and I'm having a rough day. So, tada! How about 75? Yay. Love you
