Chapter II

Drake Krane sat on the terrace of his villa of the corellian's countryside. Just like all the citizens of the galaxy he enjoyed the announcement of the destruction of the Death Star and the death of Emperor Palpatine. But this day had another significance for the former senator. 21 years ago his best friend, Jayson Solo, and his wife were murdered by Darth Vader and seven years later their son, Han, left Corellia never to return again.

Dash: Father!

Drake: On the terrace Dashwood.

The old man stand up and greeted his son.

Drake: Where are you coming from?

Dash: From the presidential palace.

The father glance at his son than invited him to sit next to him.

Drake: I had warned you Dashwood. Mayra is not herself today.

Dash: I know father, but I had a news to communicate to Mayra.

A droid then brought them two corellian beers.

Drake: And what news it is?

Dash: I found Han.

The father remained calm and drank a bit of his beer.

Drake: And what thus became of this dear old Han this time? If I remember well he was a doctor on Alderaan, pod racer pilot on Tatoïne, a barman on Ord Mantel and a cabaret singer on Coruscant!

Dash: Your protégé is one of the leaders of the Rebellion!

Drake: What did you say?

Dash: The man who led the rebel forces during the battle of Endor: General Han Solo!

Drake: Dashwood are you absolutely certain? I don't want to disparage your years of research, but they carried out all to dead end!

Dash: Father this time I am a 100 per cent certain. I had the confirmation from Admiral Ackbar, chief of the rebellious fleet. And looks at this holograme of him, he looks like Jayson Solo!

He gave the disc to his father who studied it attentively. He found in him the old friend whom he had lost. Han Solo was really the portrait of his father, except for his eyes. He had his mother's eyes.

Drake: What did Mayra said?

Dash: "Go seek your father! We must organize the return of my brother."

Drake: Then let organize his return!
