I don't own Star Wars. I wish I did but all of the characters belong to George Lucas and well as the ships, planets, ect.
Chapter One-Regrets
Jaina sat on her bed thinking about the day's events. She and her
brother had had a hard days work helping to rebuild the New Jedi Temple
Jag had gone to his home planet Csilla, and Jaina had stayed to help her
Uncle Luke rebuild the Jedi Academy on Yavin 4. It had been about a
month after the end of the war and about three fourths of the New Jedi
Temple had been built, the dorms included. Jaina sat up thinking about
Jag. She had thought about him every day since he had left to go back to
Csilla. It was like a daily ritual. She looked over to her nightstand which
held a picture of Jag and herself, the two smiling on Courascant at the
end of the war. Anyone and everyone who had a brain figured out at
the end of the war that Jaina and Jag had been dating. Twins Suns
Squadron terrorized the two for days before General Antilles said her
would have them kicked out of the military for not listening to a superior
officer. Her thoughts drifted and drifted about all the time she spent with
Jag all the kisses they had shared and all the fun they had with the
Goddess charade.
Why did I reject his invitation to Csilla? I mean my reasons were logical
but I don't know if it was right. I loved Jag. I love Jag still. What am I doing sitting here? I have to go to him! she paused and ran over to her dresser No this is crazy. I could get in alot of trouble I could get kicked out of the military. If Jag really missed me he would have come to Yavin 4 by now to see me. But maybe something's wrong on Csilla what if......
Jaina's thoughts were interupted though by Jacen. Sensing his
sister was in distress he reached out to her. ' Jaya are you okay?'
'NO! I....I......' she didn't know what to say so she cut the
connection and ran over to her desk pulling up the route to Csilla trying to
find the quickest one from Yavin 4 to Chiss Space. She found one and
packed her bag as quickly as possible then she headed to the door her
hand almost hitting the 'open' button but pausing. What if he doesn't
remember me? No he will I know it he wouldn't forget anything.
BUT..........What if he has another girlfriend. No he couldn't, he wouldn't. Jag isn't the person to just drop someone like that. Okay I'll go! But wait this is so selfish. Uncle luke needs me, the Jedi, need me and the military needs me.....Everyone needs me I need to do something for myself though. I love Jag and I need to see him even if I do make a fool out of myself
Jaina almost got her wish but Jacen was in the doorway when the door opened. "What's wrong?" he paused and looked down at her small luggage carrier, "and where are you going?"
Jaina debated whether on telling him where she was going or not
but decided it would be kept a secret if she told him. If she didn't, Jacen would go around asking questions and then everyone would know that she had left and with her father not rreally liking Jag.... well she didn't really want to go there. At least if it was between only her and Jacen she would have at least a few hours maybe a day of a head start.
"I'm going to Csilla to see Jag. I don't know why I didn't go with
him to Csilla when he invited me the first time but all I know is that I think I made one of the biggest mistakes of my life and I have to go. My reasons for staying with Uncle Luke and the Jedi were logical but I love Jag and maybe I will make a fool out of myself 'cause if he moved on then well I just traveled all that way for nothing and he could probably already have a new girlfriend but I don't know and I just have to go because the force is telling me to go and I LOVE JAG!" Jaina said and then her legs colapsed under her and she fell to the floor sobbing. " I don't even know if what I'm doing is right." she said quietly as an after thought.
Jacen sat down on the floor next to her and rubbed her back and
said comfortingly "Jaya, Jag isn't the person to just drop someone like
that. I'm also not going to go against you on this. Jag still loves you and he hasn't forgotten about you and" he said pulling her to her feet " if you need any help I'm here to offer it and I won't tell where you went at lest for a couple of days." Jacen smiled and Jaina laughed " Now do you want some help?"
"Yes Please!" Jaina said hugging her brother and thanking him for his willingness to help her. Jacen took one of her bags and walked with her to her x-wing. Neither twin worried about being caught because people weren't allowed to travel around the Jedi academy, even the Jedi Knights and Masters but still this was only in effect because a bit of the base was still in building progress and it was unsafe just incase you knocked into something and it was connected to something that was holding the building you traveled the halls. Then again, this was only for
safty reasons. When the two reached the hanger bay Jaina hopped into
her x-wing and did the pre-flight prep and Jacen put her bags in the
storage compartment then he climbed up the ladder to the cocpit.
"You good to go?" Jacen asked
" Yes" Jaina paused "thank you Jacen but if someone goes looking for me tomorrow and they come to you, you can tell them but only if they ask you and don't tell dad if he asks I really like Jag as he is. Preferably tell Mara, Luke, or Mom, Mom can hold him back for a while and then you'll be questioned but Dad won't hurt you you just have to keep him at bay for a while and then you can let him come. Remember though, this is only if someone asks and wait till to tomorrow to answer anything. 'Kay?"
"Yes mommy" Jacen said jokingly as Jaina hit him playfully
" Thank you Jacen." she said smiling " I love you Jace."
" Love you too Jaya. I hope you get what you want." Then Jaina
closed the canopy and lifted off. Soon she was just a little dot in the sky
and then nothing as she went into hyperspace, and behind him Jacen
could hear the distant call of his aun.
Luke and Mara's Room
Mara sat up sensing distress. She reached out with the force anf
elt Jaina debating over something. She was about to reach out to her
mind when she thought better of it. I'll see if she goes to Jacen's room. But then she sensed Jacen go to her. 'I wonder whats going on here.'
Then she felt the two minds move a sizable amount. They had left Jaina's quarters. They weren't supposed to be wandering around at night, they knew that. 'I had better follow them' she paused to think if her actions were correct, 'yes she thought. If I don't Han and Leia and Luke will kill me.'So quietly she got out of bed walking across the room then she followed the twins force presence to the hanger bay. She had arrived just in time to see Jaina take off "JACEN!!" she called from te back of the hanger bay, "JACEN SOLO! What in the nine Correlian hells did you and Jaina just do?!" she called again as she walked up to him
"Well......we um.......she........I......."Jacen stuttered 'Jaina said can I tell Mara she's going to kill me she saw you take off'
'Yes Jacen and I don't think she would have killed you'
"Spit it out Jacen!"
Jacen paused and then started his explanation in the quickest
speech you could ever hear, "Jaina said she wanted to see Jag and she
loves him and she doesn't know why she didn't go with him to Csilla
when he asked her and she thought she made the biggest mistake of
her life and that if anyonefound out they might tell dad and dad would go balistic and so she decided to Csilla to see Jag because she loves him and she didn't want to live without him." then he drew in a deep breath.
Mara laughed " I won't rat her out," she paused "at least until
someone notices she's gone. That would be quite an interesting effect
from your father though." she smiled at the thought. "Come on back to
bed so that way we both don't get into trouble."
Jaina sat in her x-wing thinking about Jag and trying to answer her
questions to herself further. 'Why did I leave him?' 'maybe it was good that I came to Yavin 4 for a while so that when I did want to go see him it made me relize how much I need him.' 'I don't know!' 'Whatever the reason........' she trailed off her thought as the warning signal flashed that her trip in hyperspace was coming to an end. She watched the countdown and when the clock hit zero she pulled the lever and entered back into real-space. Her first journey had just ened and a new one was just begining...................
