Well, all, this is the much waited for sequel to my first finished fic. This, people, is The Antilles Life. I hope you all enjoy. This story isn't going to be all about Wedge and Jaina, it's going to have Kyle and Jaden in here too. And the others. Wells, here we go.
Disclaimer-Everyone knows what's mine and what's not. Obviously most of this belongs to George Lucas, not me. Although I wouldn't mind it if I did own some of this.
Jaina woke up, and at first didn't realize she was on her honeymoon. She thought she was at home, but then the lack of noise brought her to her surroundings. She yawned, and climbed out of bed.
Throwing on one of Wedge's shirts, which was hanging
on the bedpost, she walked into another room. Wedge was writing quickly on a datapad, and she watched him for a while.
"Mornin' love. I've got everything all planned out. We're going on a tour of the Naboo core."
"You do like danger, don't you?" Jaina smirked, and turned to walk back into their room. She dressed quickly, glad to be out of her constricting uniform or Jedi robes. She wore slacks and a dress shirt. Even though she was on her honeymoon, she still brought her lightsabers with her. She had two others to look out for now, beside herself.
Wedge and their child. She finished dressing, and walked out with Wedge to their tour of the Naboo core.
Half an hour later, Wedge wrenching the controls sharply to the left, he decided it wasn't the best idea he'd ever have. Jaina was clearly loving it, her face was pressed to the window of the sub as the bioluminescent creatures swam by. They were being chased by something, and frankly, Wedge didn't want to stick around to find out.
As he lifted the sub to the surface, he found the queen waiting for him. He didn't like that. It couldn't be good if the queen herself came to talk to them.
And it wasn't.
"We've received a call from Grand Admiral Ackbar. He's requesting that you come back to active duty." The Queen informed them, once they were back on land.
"Truth be told, I was getting bored." Jaina mentioned, all Corellian traces gone from her voice.
"We'll contact Ackbar on our way off planet. Thank you, your Highness." Wedge and Jaina bowed, and headed towards their room.
"I wonder what's going on." Jaina thought out loud, as she readied their new ship, Stealth Crasher, for flight.
"Probably another attack. We can't seem to get rid of these people." Wedge had learned by now, that you let Jaina pilot, or you don't hear the end of it.
"You have clearance to leave, Stealth Crasher. Good luck." The ship lifted into the air, and moments later, it left the emerald orb of Naboo alone in space.
Jaden woke after yet another dream. This one was actually funny. She was surrounded by four children, all in her kitchen. They were all begging for sweets. She had lost her temper and told them if they didn't leave the kitchen that moment, she was going Sith. Needless to say, the children hurried from the room.
Kyle was already up, in the other room, training with droids. She could hear the lightsabers humming and clashing. She threw a robe on and crossed into another room.
She brought her lightsaber down on Kyle's, a wicked smirk on her face. Kyle returned the smirk. They sparred, with the droids interrupting now and then. Kyle was letting her win, she knew that.
Both of their comlinks started ringing, and they answered them. They had a recorded message from Luke.
-Jaden, Kyle, I'm requesting that you return the Jedi Academy. A new threat is rising, and we're going to need to be more organized. I have a feeling this is going to be a big fight. There's a new Sith, an apprentice of Darth Sev'rance. Somehow she's raised a huge army, and she's hiding somewhere. Please hurry, and may the Force be with you.-
"Great." Kyle muttered, shutting the comlink off. Jaden turned to go to their bedroom to dress properly before they left for Yavin.
New Republic Senate Meeting"Senators of the New Republic, it has come to my attention that we have new threat. The time is now to pledge military support once again to the New Republic army" Leia looked around the room at the many senators. Over 20,000 planets in the New Republic, more than at any other time in the galaxy's history.
There was a disturbance in the Force, warning her of danger. There was someone here, an assassin. She couldn't tell if they wanted her dead, or someone else. But at the moment, there was nothing she could do.
The Loyalists didn't say anything. They knew that Leia knew that she had their support.
"Your Excellency, I suggest that we give you emergency powers to stop this threat. We are all tired of war, Madam President, and we would like to live in peace once again." A brave senator from Telos told her. Leia didn't want emergency powers. She knew accusations would begin, that Leia wanted to form another Empire.
" I wish that I could accept these powers, Senator, but I'm afraid that the recent Empire is still fresh in people's minds. They all know how the Old Republic fell. I don't want people to think that is what I'm trying to do. If it is necessary, then I will do it. But for the record, I do not want to." Leia told him, and the Senator seemed to understand. But the Loyalists didn't.
"President Organa-Solo, if I may, you should accept these powers. It would be better for the-" An explosion rocked the building, then another, and another. Someone was firing at them!
"Return fire! There's a senate meeting going on!" Ackbar ordered, and his ships rained fire down on the battle cruiser. He'd never seen a cruiser like that before.
The planetary defenses began to return fire also. The battle cruiser's shields failed, and it exploded, practically disintegrating.
Han was in the apartment, organizing data for a report on a skirmish on the outer rim when he heard the explosions. Anakin and Jacen also heard the explosions and came from their rooms, lightsabers in hand. Han was already halfway out the door when they caught up with him.
Leia pulled an injured Twi'lek out from under the rubble, and called for a medic before moving on. She was unharmed, this time. She had her lightsaber in her hand, in case anyone tried attacking the wounded Senators.
These poor people, she thought, watching two Wookiees pull a companion from under a support beam for the building. It was dead. They're just getting cut down.
"Leia!"
"Mom!"
She turned, and saw Jacen, Anakin and Han running towards her. It seemed that only the senate building was hit.
"Are you alright?" Han asked, looking around at the chaos. Leia nodded, and opened her mouth to say something when she saw a familiar blaster. It was Isolder's blaster, laying next to a vibrosword.
"Isolder was here?" She thought out loud, and heard Hapan guards calling frantically for him.
"Here he is!" Jacen yelled, pulling the wounded prince away from a section of ceiling. He was bruised and bloody, but otherwise okay.
"I think.. I think my leg is broken" He told them, leaning on Jacen's shoulder.
Cries of pain and anguish filled the room. The building was unstable. They needed to get everyone out before it collapsed around them.
"Get all the bruised to the medbays on the battle cruisers. Send the critical ones to the medical facilities here." Leia barked, and left her husband to help a senator's daughter lift a piece of torn metal in search for her father.
Luke felt the attack before it happened, but there was nothing he could've done about it. Leia wasn't hurt, neither was Han, or the Solo boys, but two Jedi Knights had died. And so had a ship full of people. People that obviously didn't want the senate knowing about them. But little did these people know that by attacking the senate would generate anger, and the want for revenge. Which was never good, but the systems would pledge any military support they could muster to stop these new attackers.
But the strange thing was that the new enemy wasn't from this galaxy.
