Day 13

Darth Warious woke to the sound of a loud scream. It wasn't Haldir because the sound came from the outside. It wasn't a Ewok scream, and Maul had been meditating before the sound brought him out of his trance. Warious looked out the window to see what had been making that noise, but couldn't see anything from the window.

Warious was about to climb over Haldir to go looking for the noise when he pulled her back down. "Leave it be. It's probably not important," he mumbled. (Incase you people with sick minds out there haven't figured it out yet, you know who you are, Warious sleeps in her clothes.)

Warious glared at him and rolled him off the bed so she could get out. "I don't care. I'm going to find out what it was. Anything that disturbs my sleep shall be investigated," Warious retorted getting out of bed but then Haldir grabbed and pulled her down onto the floor with him. "That wasn't very nice" Warious said.

Wrapping his arms around her, Haldir replied, "Neither was your pushing me out of bed. Now you must pay the consequences." Haldir pulled Warious closer to him and kissed her. Unfortunately Warious decided she liked being kissed at that moment and reciprocated the action. When they finally stopped, Warious apologized and Haldir let her up.

Warious headed downstairs to find her friends Lillian and Pegasus in the kitchen. (It serves as the dining room and the kitchen.) Warious looked at them and then looked for Maul. He was muttering in some language and it didn't sound pretty. "What are you two doing here so early in the morning?" Warious asked.

"We, we saw Maul..." Pegasus sounded freaked out.

"Maul was meditating and we saw him." Lillian finished for her friend.

"So?" Warious asked slowly. "Maul meditates, I meditate, what seems to be the problem?"

Maul burst out of the bathroom looking redder than normal, "They saw me doing early morning meditation."

"He wasn't wearing any clothes," Pegasus said looking a tad green and very embarrassed.

"Awww, you poor girls come on lets go watch Lord of the Rings and I promise not to gag when Legolas comes on." Warious turned to Maul, "Shame on you! Do that meditation inside if you don't want to be seen," then she moved her friends into the living room to watch the movie she promised them.

They got into the living room and were immediately intercepted by a smallish fuzz ball that latched himself on to Warious' legs. -Good morning Dutak!- Luka greeted her.

"Hi Luka."

Lillian and Pegasus squealed in delight at seeing the 'adorable Ewok'. After they finished fawning over a very unnerved Luka, Lillian spoke to Warious. "Hey! We got tickets to see Les Miserables in Boston! (A/N: I don't own this either.) We have two extra tickets and we were wondering if you and Haldir wanted to come with us."

"Go where?" The mentioned elf asked.

"To see Les Miserables!" The three girls said at the same time.

"What is that?" he asked puzzled.

"Do you hear the people sing?" Maul's voice came from the other room, surprisingly good for someone who has only heard the song all the way through once.

Lillian, not waiting for either of them to say 'Yes', dragged Warious and Haldir out to the car.

They didn't drive to Boston; instead they took the train after driving down into Massachusetts. Haldir looked nervous at the new form of transportation and nothing Lillian or Warious could say or do would calm the elf. So there they were at the train station with an elf ready to spazz, when the train arrived. After many shoves and persuasion (co-A/N H: They mean tickled. A/N W: Shut up!), they got Haldir on the train.

After a half hour on the train, Haldir seemed to relax and tried to collect what was left of his dignity (which is hard to do when you have Lillian and Pegasus giggling about you.)

The foursome arrived in Boston at about 11:00 am, and then Haldir couldn't stop commenting about the lack of nature and the levels of pollution. The girls tried to get him to shut up when Warious threatened to tickle him some more. Since that idea seemed to please him, Warious changed the threat to letting her friends tickle him instead. This achieved a much better result.

When they arrived at the theater there was a small line, but Warious knew from experience that this line was going to grow. They stood there for about ten minutes and the line grew, as Warious knew it would, to large proportions before they let anyone in.

It was a nice theater but it was quickly packed by mainly older adults. It seemed Lillian, Pegasus, and Warious were the only Les Miz fanatics in the entire area right. That is until...

Warious bumped into a person about her size and apologized to her without looking in their direction. She was moving away when she heard the person say, "Warious?"

Darth Warious turned around. "Hey Commander!" she greeted the missing person of their group. "What are you doing here?"

"That's my line!" Commander laughed. "I'm here for the same reason you are. It's not like they have two musicals at once here."

Lillian and Pegasus caught up with Warious and immediately noticed who she was talking to. They were happy to see each other and Commander was in a good mood until she noticed Warious' ever present shadow, Haldir. "What is he doing here?"

"Hello to you too, Lady Rogue Dragon," Haldir replied. No, they don't like each other much.

They found their seats which were conveniently placed in the same area. They watched the play with great anticipation. Okay, Lillian, Pegasus, Commander and Warious watched the play with anticipation. Haldir, on the other hand, was bored.

During the play, Haldir snuck his hand around Warious' shoulders and caressed her cheek. Warious felt this and clamped an offending finger in her mouth. Haldir tried to remove his finger but Warious kept a firm clamp on him.

"Let go," he hissed quietly in her ear.

(No way H. You put your fingers near my mouth that is where they'll end up.) Warious replied through the force. A few minutes later Warious finally let go.

When the four hour play was finished the group headed to a restaurant to eat something before they collapsed from hunger. Okay so they weren't going to collapse from hunger, but they were very hungry. Commander found a nice place to eat and they had a late lunch/early supper.

The group had some time on their hands so Lillian decided they would all go sight seeing. The girls kept Haldir quiet by promising him they would go to the park first. After that they just wandered around Boston trying to avoid the dangerous amount traffic in its streets. About an hour later Warious felt something was wrong. She couldn't figure out quite what it was so Warious turned around to ask Haldir if he sensed anything. It was then when Warious realized what was wrong. Haldir was missing. She told the others and they tried to figure out where to look for him.

First they decided to try the park. He wasn't there. Then they tried to figure out what could have been so interesting to him that he wandered off. No one could figure it out so they retraced their steps.

An hour of searching later Commander suggested checking the docks. "Why would he be there?" Pegasus asked.

"Because all elves love the sea," Commander then pointed out several references to Tolkien's works. Haldir was from Middle Earth. It was possible.

They ran for the docks as fast as possible and hoped he didn't run into any trouble. Hey, it was Boston, who knows what you'll find here. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy anywhere else in New England.

They eventually found him surrounded by a group of young adults in gang colors. It looked like they were threatening to shove him into the water. The friends hung back as Warious stepped foward to confront the gang. (Her friends knew to stay out of Warious' way when it came to using the force.)

Warious called the force into a concentrated and visible form that would take on the appearance of a rare monster. An Kyrat Dragon of Tatooine. This for all you un-Sith-knowledgeable people is called a battle illusion. A very rare ability and one of the reasons that the Jedi don't like the Sith. A battle illusion can harm people physically. One of the 'forbidden' techniques of the Ancient Sith.

One by one, each member of the gang turned and saw Warious' fearsome creation and ran away. Haldir saw it too and looked ready to fight it, but then he saw Warious standing there behind the creature and relaxed...sort of.

Once all the gang members left and were out of sight, Warious released the force and the Kyrat Dragon disappeared. "The police are never around when you really need them are they," Warious commented casually to Haldir. He rolled his eyes at her and approached.

"You used the dark side for that, didn't you?" Haldir said.

"Who cares? Let's go home." And with that they headed for the train station, boarded the train, and headed home.

.................

When Warious and Haldir got home, Luka was waiting for them at the door. He was all excited and eagerly described his discoveries of earth and its technology. Then he continued talking to them by describing his first lesson in using the force.

Warious thought it was amusing the way Luka elaborately described his day and lesson. It was like listening to a kid who discovered, what he would consider, a new and different world filled with new wonders to be found.

Maul walked into the room while Luka was describing his day and gave Darth Warious an 'I had a very long day' look.

It was late when Luka Siz finished talking, and Warious decided to go to bed.

Upstairs in bed, Haldir asked Warious if she had an answer for him. "What answer?"

"I asked you to be my life mate."

"Oh that. I'm still thinking. Ask me again in a month." Warious told him and then fell asleep in his arms.
