Some Never Do
A Star Wars Fan Fiction
Disclaimer: I do not own Star Wars, although I do own most memorabilia and nearly every published book about it known to man-kind. Sintas and Ailyn Vel are property of… Dark Horse Comics and whoever came up with them. Not me. I just can't remember the person's name right now… so there.
Prologue
Sintas willed herself to be strong. She had vowed to never let herself cry upon his account ever again, but here she was, sitting in a dark, dank apartment next to the charred body of a bounty and with a small holocube in her hands. She activated it once again, and the eerie blue light erupted from the device as the ghost of her family's image took form. It had been happier times, a young baby girl cradled in her arms and her handsome husband Boba with his hand draped casually over her shoulder with a smile.
She choked back a sob. What had happened to them? Their days as a happy family had been short-lived and left them both biter with their young child torn between them. Now, their little girl Ailyn was fully grown and learning the tricks of her father's trade; a trade that Sintas and he had once shared, but never equally. There was no trace left of the former happiness Sintas had once had, save for the single, tiny holocube.
"You're wounds will heal," his voice came back to haunt her as her fingers brushed against the burning scorch mark on her shoulder.
She cradled the holocube reverently as tears began to fall anew.
"Some never do…" she muttered. "Some never do…"
Other Disclaimer: Oh yes, and I should probably mention that I just pretty much directly quoted Star Wars Tales Volume # 7 here.
Author's Note: Okay, this is my second fan fiction I actually thought seemed to have enough promise to put up and is the first one in the Star Wars category. I've been long obsessed with a one Boba Fett… oh how I love him. And I just recently re-discovered (I knew along time ago, but consequently forgot…) that he had a wife and daughter at one point, and then had a falling-out with them. I then discovered that it is supposedly his daughter, Ailyn Vel ( I think Vel is a last name she adapted so she wouldn't get awkward stares for being obviously related to Boba), who shows up in the Young Jedi Knight Series in Boba (her father)'s armor (okay, that just kind of defeats the purpose of the last name thing…).
I tried to find out more about Boba's apparent family, but failed miserably. cries And I also found that there are consequently (I like that word) very few fan fictions about them. So I decided to attempt and pioneer the subject.
I am an avid reader of fan fiction and have read many amazing stories about Boba, and welcome the challenge to come up with an original one. I hope I succeed. And thank you for reading this because it is way too long. I'll try and update soon!
Oh, and I've heard a rumor that Sintas was force sensitive… I'm not sure if it's true… I've also heard that she was a low ranking bounty hunter (a rumor which I'm am using as if it were true)… anybody know? If you know anything else about Sintas or Ailyn Vel, or I write something incorrectly or insultingly, please let me know! I love to hear from you!
Edit I finally got the original version of Star Wars Tales Volume 7, starring Boba and Sintas! And I just found out that I've been mispelling her name... So I changed it. Yay. I'm working on the second chapter, no need to worry!
