Chapter 2- A New Love For Flying

Solaris and her new companions reached a sleek titanium ship which she would call home for the next several months. Just like Solaris had never before seen eyes like the Jedi's, she had never before seen a spaceship of such huge size. Roziljian set the princess down in a chair which was seated around a medium sized table. A droid came out of a room and strolled over to her. It was the same size of a large trash can that was primary blue with flashing red and white buttons. The little droid roamed its way round the universe with small wheels under it and could not talk, but could still understand the universe's inhabitants and communicate with them with a type of beeping talk. At once Solaris could understand this little droid. "Beep, bru, bur, bep, beeeepp, bu, bur", the droid spoke to her. It name was A3R3.

"Hello." Solaris answered. Another droid came waltzing out of the same door from which A3R3 rolled out of. This one did not communicate like A3R3 did, it spoke perfect Common Tongue and it was in the shape of a human made out of silver metal.

"Pardon me Miss, but I do not think we have met before. I am Tidus. May I ask what your name is?"

"Of course. My name is Solaris, the Crown Princess of Solith."

"What a beautiful name."

"A3R3, prep the jet for take off please." Civ Fir Tuh asked in a prudent and demanding tone. "We must leave now."

"Bep, bepp, bur, be."

"Solaris come with me." The princess followed the Jedi into the deck. "Sit down here. Hold on to your doll while I buckle you in. No harm will come to you." She sat down and was buckled in.

"Master we are ready to leave." Roziljian said as he walked in. The Jedi sat themselves down in the pilot seats. Quickly a bunch of switches were mysteriously flipped. Solaris was frightened and the suspense waiting to take off was killing her.

Skillfully, the spacecraft lifted off the ground and Solaris peered out of the window and saw the ground fall a way. When the ship was high enough, the Jedi spun it around 180 degrees and then the main thrusters were turned on and the craft was soon flying out beyond the planet's atmosphere. "Ready for lightspeed. Coordinates: Camberth Galaxy, 052n36d9s400y. Hold tight Solaris," Roziljian ranted off.

Everything seemed to freeze around Solaris and the stars looked like long lines of light. She felt free and like she was completely detached from her surroundings. The princess had never felt anything like this before. Amazement and wonder filled her little body and Solaris could have stayed in that state of awe forever if the spacecraft had not stopped flying in lightspeed. There new destination was reached and a planet which the spaceship was heading towards was huge compared to the princess's small planet, but they were not heading for the planet anymore, but for the moon. The moon was as white as a pearl and had a space station built upon its flawless surface. No other space ships were in sight. "Roziljian, stay here with Solaris while I get supplies." Civ Fir Tuh said in a calm manor.

The Jedi Knight walked out of the deck. Solaris heard a coupling sound. The ship had docked. The younger Jedi turned around and looked like he was going to speak, but hesitated. Solaris looked into his eyes. They were beautiful brown eyes and his hair was blonde and spiky. The two of them stared at each other locked in silence. She was trying to psychoanalyze him and he was trying to think of something to say, but he had mental barriers and she did not look like she would be interested in anything he said. Tidus walked in and broke the strange silence.

"How was the flight for you Princess Solaris?" the droid said.

"Oh, I just loved it! I wish we could fly again!" she replied.

"We will shortly. Master Roziljian, when is master Civ Fir Tuh coming back? I need to speak with him concerning A3R3. He's been tampering with my room's power again."

"He told me a few hours. Watch the kid, will ya? I need some water. Solaris would you like something?"

He had spoken to her. Panicking, she looked at him with scared eyes and said nothing.

"I'll get you some water just in case."
