Chapter 2
******************************
The Millenium Falcon came out of hyperspace, near the full of traffic planet of Mon Calamari, where the New republic had decided to make their new capital.
Han Solo sat in the pilot's chair, while the co-pilot seat was occupied by his petite wife. Behind them, in the Comm console, sat the furry Lowbacca, who had decided to continue his uncle's life debt. Han knew that Wookies were too stubborn, so he finally gave up.
Also a group of newly knighted Jedi had joined the group. They were setting Insiders cells all across the galaxy. This group consisted in their own son Jacen, Tahiri Veila, and Zekk.
Han was surprised to see a fleet of Star Destroyers outside Mon Calamari's orbit. There was at least ten Star Destroyers Victory-Class. And Han couldn't tell how many more were outside range.
"Look at that, Leia, I wonder who brought them."
Leia was amused by her husband's reaction," If I remember correctly, the Chiss Force was supposed to arrive today."
"The Chiss Force?" he was surprised by this," you mean Fel is here?"
"Probably."
He sunk in his chair, shaking his head, all the while muttering," I think I've run out of good luck."
Leia patted his arm in a comforting way," Don't worry, honey, you're both grown adults. You'll learn to cope with each other."
Lowie growled an affirmative.
"You see, even Lowie agrees with me, you should let your petty differences in the past."
"How can I do that when his son is courting my precious daughter?" he asked grumpily. The tuned to Lowbacca," You're not helping."
He growled a mock apology, and Han slapped him playfully in the arm.
"Speaking about your precious daughter. Don't you think it's time for you to let her go? She's not a baby anymore."
Han sighed, he knew that, but he still didn't like it. Jaina was his little girl. He was afraid she would forget him," I know, but she is still young. I don't want her to make any mistake. I'm afraid the Fel kid will hurt her."
"He loves her, I don't think he would hurt her. Besides, she has Kyp to protect her. Don't you trust Kyp?"
"Yes I trust Kyp. I know Fel won't hurt her. I'm just afraid."
"Don't be. Just accept Jag."
"I accept him, that doesn't mean I like him."
Leia smiled at her husband and hit him in the shoulder playfully, while he feigned mock hurt. They ended laughing. But were interrupted as the Comm crackled.
"Unknown ship, please identify yourself. This is the New Republic vessel Dangerous Innocence."
"Dangerous Innocence, this is the Millenium Falcon, asking for permission to enter Mon Calamari space." Han smirked, Dangerous Innocence was once a smuggler's ship. But since the death of the warmaster; her owner had decided to join the New Republic.
"Millenium Falcon, permission granted, please go to Hangar Bay 178."
"Copy, Dangerous Innocence, thanks."
"You are welcome, Millenium Falcon."
He stood from his seat, giving Leia the controls, and stretched." I'll go tell the kids we are arriving."
He went towards the Game table were Tahiri, Jacen, and Zekk were sitting. Zekk was sleeping and snoring soundly, his open mouth had a trail of saliva. Tahiri was reading her magazine "Girl's Corner Zine" trying unsuccessfully to ignore Zekk's snores. While Jacen watched amused, stifling his laughter.
"Hey, kiddos, we're about to arrive," he poked Zekk to wake him.
He didn't wake.
He poked harder.
He didn't wake.
Exasperated, Han threw his arms up and started muttering curses. He felt someone touch his arm, and turned to face Jacen.
"Don't worry, dad. I'll wake him," Han nodded and left the room. Jacen neared Zekk and said," Zekk, Jaina is here."
He jumped, bumping Jacen's head in the process. Trying to fix his flight suit, flatten his hair, and wipe his mouth and chin," Jaina, Jaina?" He turned a questioning gaze towards Jacen and Tahiri, who laughing so hard they had to hold their stomachs or in Jacen's case, his forehead.
He turned his angry green eyes towards the laughing Jedis.
"Why did you do that?" clearly, he was not going to get an answer soon, so he just stood and left. Accidentally, he sent an hydrospanner clattering to the floor. Managing to break it.
Among the silver pieces, Zekk saw a small red figurine. Its form was one of a female humanoid. It was wearing a sleeveless, red gown. Five spikes formed in the collar, from them a long cloak started going to its bare feet. It had a tight bodice that showed its perfect curves, and a skirt flared as long as the cloak. Tattoos in bracelet patterns adorned each of the figurine's forearms, at least Zekk believed they were tattoos.
The figurine's features had an uncanny similarity to Jaina's. But the gown gave it a Yuuzhan Vong air that didn't go with Jaina at all. Still it was very beautiful.
Half a second happened before Tahiri's arm stretched. Getting hold of the figurine and hiding it.
Jacen and Zekk's wide eyes to Tahiri's retreating form. Then they looked at each other.
"What was that?"
