Star Wars The New Jedi Order: Survival

Chapter 2

Katrin peeked out as the coral skippers flew by. She had been living in the building (with the lake on top of it) for about a week now. So far no Yuuzhan Vong had entered the building. She had constructed a number of bridges from her building to the surrounding buildings, and from them many more bridges branched out. The bridges were hard enough to see when you were on them, and hopefully just as hard from the air. She had made them out of glass that she had pulled from the windows in the building. Also she had found a large store of food near the top of her building, and in a few others.

Katrin ran over and dived in the lake (which she had drained until it was level with the bottom of the top story) and swam towards a hole in the bottom. She swam through the hole and into a tunnel. Katrin started to swim down the tunnel (which is a air duct). With her lungs burning she reach the end and swam up and through a hole. Katrin gasped as she surfaced and swam to the edge of the cut in the floor.

She was now in a large room on the top floor. She had removed the door and covered the doorway so it looked like the rest of the walls. In other words, the only way in was the way she had come in.

Katrin had just gotten back from looking for other survivors. So far she had found none, but the city was huge and there had to be others. There had to be, she couldn't bear it if she was all alone. She pushed the thought away as she climbed into her make shift bed. Her head had barely hit the pillow before she was asleep.

Katrin awoke to the sound of a splash. She got up and went over to the computer that was hooked up to her hidden cameras. She went back a minute in the memory and saw a young man dive into the water. Katrin switched it back to real time and watched as the man surfaced, then dived again.

She went back to her bed and laid down. She drew one of her blasters and waited. Sure enough the man sloshed up out of the air duct and stood up. He noticed the computer and walked over to it.

"And what do you think your doing?" she said as she sat up and pointed the blaster at him.

"I should have known this hiding place was to good to be true."

"You better believe it, sit down." She motioned to the chair next to the computer terminal.

"Nice place you have here. Did you make it?"

"Shut up and sit down!!"

He sat down and starred at her.

"How did you get to the top of the building?"

"I climbed the stairs."

"Are you for or against the Vong?"

"I'm definitely against."

"Prove it."

"How?"

"I don't know it's not my problem."

He looked around for a second then he glanced back at her with a intensity that made her realize how revealing her clothes were. Her heart fluttered as their eyes met, then he turned and continued to study the room.

"Do you have a Holonet hook up on this terminal?"

"Yes."

"May I log on and show you my proof."

"Go ahead."

He turned around and logged into the Holonet he quickly typed in a message:

"Luke I'm alive and safe." He pressed the send button.

Then went to work finding his proof.

"Here's my proof." She got up and motioned for him to switch places with her. She sat down and looked at the screen. Her jaw dropped.

"You're a Jedi!!"

"The names Ken Regen. I was on a mission when Coruscant fell. I wasn't able to get off planet so I'm stuck here just like you."

"You idiot you'll lead the voxyn here."

"I've withdrawn from the force they can't sense me. They were hunting me but as soon as I withdrew from the force they ran past me. Since then I haven't heard or seen them."

"Okay, but if they show up you'll have worse things then the voxyn to worry about."

"Got it! Can I stay here awhile?"

"I guess I could use the company, plus I could use a big strong Jedi around here." She looked at him with a twinkle in her eyes.

He grinned at her then stood up.

"We should get some shut eye."

With that he walked over to a corner and laid down. She sat looking at him for a minute then laid down and closed her eyes.
