Lyrics:  Immortality by Celine Dion

So this is who I am,
And this is all I know,
And I must choose to live,
For all that I can give,
The spark that makes the power grow

Han Solo sat quietly watching his daughter as she pressed a hand against the transparisteel barrier separating her from the docking bay.  In spite of his dislike for the relationship she held with the Imperial nerfherder who once again was leading a squadron, he could've sworn he heard the cracking of his heart over the sounds of the clawcraft fighters powering up.  He blinked once and looked out into the bay, watching as the first set of fighters exited.  Han glanced at Jaina quickly and was startled to see a wet trail tracing down her cheek.

And I will stand for my dream if I can,
Symbol of my faith in who I am,
But you are my only,
And I must follow on the road that lies ahead,
And I won't let my heart control my head,
But you are my only
And we don't say goodbye,
And I know what I've got to be

As she watched Jag's clawcraft disappear into the darkness above Mon Cal, Jaina squeezed her eyes shut as hard as she could, as if that would block out the horrible reality she was facing.  The moment she heard the last of the fighters leave the docking bay, she rotated on her heel, now facing away from the transparisteel.  Jag was gone...he was really gone.  And Sith Lords only knew when he'd be back.

Jaina hurriedly left the room as quickly as her feet would take her, ignoring her father as he moved towards her.  He hated Jag, so he would obviously think that his orders to return home were a good thing.

Immortality
I make my journey through eternity
I keep the memory of you and me inside

Once she was back to her quarters, she didn't even try to stifle the tears that had been threatening to overflow.  Instead, she let herself fall onto her bed, loosing a cry of sadness as she did so.  Jaina buried her face in her pillow and then pounded the same pillow, as if either would bring Jag back to her.  His orders hadn't been specific other than that he was to return home now.  They didn't say when or even if he'd be returning.  They just had relayed their message and left those who couldn't comply with a heartache that would never be filled.

Through the Force, Jaina felt the probing of first Kyp through their bond, then Jacen through their twin connection.  A few seconds later, Jaina felt her mother reaching towards her as well, all three questioning her sadness.  Not wishing to enlighten them merely because it would be too painful, she was glad to be sidetracked from brushing them off as her door comm went off.

Fulfill your destiny,
Is there within the child,
My storm will never end,
My fate is on the wind,
The king of hearts, the joker's wild,
But we don't say goodbye,
I'll make them all remember me

Mara was standing outside, her red hair tied back in a tight braid, her green eyes calm but at the same time, very intense.  Silently Jaina stepped out of her way and the Jedi Master walked into the room.  Once she had passed, Jaina pressed the controls once more, letting the door slide shut again.  Mara had turned to face her and Jaina saw her former master's eyes softening.  There was a very pregnant pause before the older woman spoke, pulling Jaina into a hug.

"I'm so sorry, Jaina.  I know this isn't fair to you, even if you do have to appear heartless to the rest of the base."  Jaina just shook her head in Mara's shoulder, wishing to remain the most miserable one by telling Mara, however untruthfully, that her aunt had never gone through the same thing she was going through now.

'Cause I have found a dream that must come true,
Every ounce of me must see it though,
But you are my only
I'm sorry I don't have a role for love to play,
Hand over my heart I'll find my way,
I will make them give to me

"Jaina, you know that that's not true.  I've been through just as much as you have, only I've known that Luke was going to return to me."  She paused, and Jaina looked up to her meet her aunt's piercing eyes.  "He loves you, you know.  He loves you so much, Jaina.  Even when you can't show it around in public, any time that boy looks at you, you can see it in his eyes."

For the first time since Jag had gone to the docking bay to start powering up his systems, Jaina flashed a small smile.  Knowing she must look pathetic with her hair falling out of it's ponytail and tearstains across her cheeks, she stepped back from Mara to wipe her eyes.  Mara's grip relaxed on her shoulders before one hand tightened again.  Jaina, unsure of why Mara was suddenly tense, glanced up.  What she saw on Mara's face was something she was totally unprepared for.  Her aunt stared at her, surprise easily evident in her features.

"What?"  Jaina glanced around behind her, saw nothing, then looked back at Mara.

"You're father's going to kill you, Jaina Solo."

Immortality
There is a vision and a fire in me
I keep the memory of you and me, inside
And we don't say goodbye
We don't say goodbye
With all my love for you
And what else we may do
We don't say, goodbye
