Chapter Four: Through The Mists

Back aboard the Rebirth, Korran was preparing the ship for its reversion back to realspace. A countdown appeared on the screen in front of him and within a minute the streaks of light shortened again into stars surrounding a gas giant. "Rhia!" Korran called, hoping that she would be in a better mood after having some sleep. He heard a muffled sound from the back of the ship and then heard footsteps as Rhia joined him in the cockpit of the Rebirth.

Rhia entered the cockpit, stretching to remove the last remnants of sleepiness from her system. With a yawn, she sat down in the seat beside Korran's and proceeded to run a scan of the area surrounding them. After a few minutes she sat back in frustration. "There's no sign of a ship or remains."

"Well then where did your distress signal come from? According to you they don't just materialize out of thin air."

"You don't need to get so smart with me. I know this one came from somewhere and my coordinates tell me it should be right he -" Rhia cut off as the sight of a moon came into view from behind the gas giant. She eyed the moon's path and turned back to Korran. "It's got to be on the moon."

"On the moon? Rhia this is an uninhabited system!"

"Well the scanner is showing life on that moon." she pointed to the now visible green orb.

"It seems to be some sort of jungle moon - well capable of sustaining life."

Korran moaned. "I suppose that means I'm going to be trudging through the jungle."

"Smart man."

With this, the Rebirth sped towards the fourth moon of Yavin, the moon which had held its secrets, untouched for centuries was now about to lose its cloak of mystery once again.

Down on the moon, Zayne's head jerked upwards. "There's someone up there." Zayne said with wonder. Less than a minute later, his statement was confirmed when a small ship came into view. "It wasn't a hallucination." Zayne thought, as he stared at the area where the ship no doubt landed, a sense of fear filling him, but also one of gleeful anticipation for what was about to happen. Zayne had no doubts that it would change his life.
