The man jumped at Han. As the two men wrestled, a crowed began to form. They shouted and cheered eager for a fight.
But Diamond was scared out of her mind. She jumped on a table to see if she could spot Chewie.
"CHEWIE!!!" she cried helplessly, but her voice was lost in the crowd.
Then Han screamed with pain, the man had cut his chin with the edge of the broken bottle. And that's when Diamond got mad.
She ran forward and rammed the man off of Han. Then started for him, claws and teeth bared. But the man grabbed Diamond's neck and pinned her down. He pulled out a knife and stabbed the girl on the side of her stomach. Then again. Diamond screamed loudly and crumbled to the floor in pain.
Then out of nowhere Chewbacca appeared. Seeing Han and Diamond's current predicament he wasted no time and ran toward them. He roared loudly, and lifted the man into the air and threw him into the crowd; starting a riot.
Han looked over at Diamond, the Mire was covered with blood and very pale. But she was alive.
Han wrapped his vest around Diamond's small body.
"Chewie let's get out of here!" he yelled. As they ran out of the bar Diamond began to talk.
"H-Han....I-I fe-feel....so...c-cold,' she whispered softly in a weak voice.
Hearing this nearly brought a tear to Han's eyes. "I'm sorry, Diamond. I'm so, so sorry,"
Diamond slept deeply for about three hours. Her stomach was all wrapped up in bandages from her wounds. Han was still sitting next to her, not leaving her side since she had first fallen asleep.
'She saved my life' Han thought in disbelief. 'Why did she do that?' But what was really troubling him, was that he had caused this. He had gotten Diamond hurt.
Slowly the girl opened her eyes "What the- I thought you were out cold," Han said.
Diamond still looked pale, but he color was returning to her cheeks.
"Very hard to kill a Mire, my friend. Very hard," she whispered giving a small smile. But Han didn't return it, he looked very sad.
"What is it?" she asked.
"I'm sorry, Diamond, if I hadn't been so stupid you wouldn't be in so much pain,"
"Han, don't say that! This was not your fault," she tried to assure him.
"Yeah...ok," even though Han didn't believe it. Suddenly his face brightened, "That's it I've made up my mind. I'm taking you home, where you can be safe,"
"Oh I would go home if I could ...but I can't," the Mire said sadly, "I don't have a home,"
"Don't have a home?!?! What the hell happened? Are you lost?"
Diamond shook her head
"No place good enough for ya?"
She shook her head again.
"Then what is it? Your brother and sister-in-law never had kids so you're all alone in this big universe?"
Diamond looked up at Han with tears in his eyes, and he knew he was right.
"Oh.....well the truth is me and Chewie are alone too," Han said taking Diamond's paw, "Diamond, you're the only real friend I've ever had besides Chewie,"
Diamond gasped, "You mean-"
"Yeah, Di," Han interrupted, "And friends stick together 'til the end,"
Diamond was so happy, she wrapped her tiny arms around Han, who was a little uneasy at first but he couldn't fight the Mire's adorable embrace and charm.
-Awwww....How cute- Chewie said standing in the doorway.
"I knew he was behind us! I just knew it!" Han yelled.
-I hate to break this up, but we really need to get some sleep- the Wookie said yawning.
"Yeah, you're right. Hey Di? What's the name of your home planet?" Han asked.
"Tatoinne good night guys," she answered closing her eyes.
The drunken man from the bar was talking quietly to the figure in the shadows.
"Solo usually hangs out with a Wookie and a Mire. You think you can handle this?" he asked.
The bounty hunter snorted, "Of course," she said in a low, sinister voice, "Han Solo will die,"
But Diamond was scared out of her mind. She jumped on a table to see if she could spot Chewie.
"CHEWIE!!!" she cried helplessly, but her voice was lost in the crowd.
