A/N: I'm back!
So, now there is going to be a huge escape and then talking. That's what happens in the prequels guys! Standing and talking, walking and talking, other people sitting while another is standing and talking. Take it from the Honest Trailers, guys. But Rogue One is the only good prequel! It's not even a prequel! Lol.
Also, who's seeing Beauty and the Beast this week! I am, on the weekend. I'm Irish, so my family likes to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. I'm probably going to see it that weekend! What can I say? I love Disney movies and I have trust in these live action ones. I like Cinderella, I like Maleficent. I haven't seen Jungle Book though and I'm pussed that it beat Rogue One in the Oscars. But I have trust in Beauty and the Beast! I love Emma Watson and she's the perfect Belle!
Okay, back to the story. Lots of Jessian moments are going to happen in this chapter. And there's no admitting feelings in this chapter. No no. That's going to happen later on. Okay guys?
Here we go!
The group ran as fast as they could out of the hideout. They saw Jedha getting blown up and the explosion ring was coming quick to them. The city was already obliterated from the laser. There was nothing left of it from the distance.
Luckily, K-2SO swooped in with the U-Wing and everyone quickly boarded. Cassian sat down next to K-2 and quickly took off.
"Come on! Come on!" He yelled.
"I'm not very optimistic about our role," K-2 said.
"Let's not K," Cassian said.
They flew the ship away from the debris. Jyn and Jenny looked out the window and saw the hideout building get caught in the explosion. It tumbled apart and they were sure by then that Saw Gerrera was dead. They never liked him that much, but they didn't want to see him die like that.
"Punch it!" Cassian yelled.
"I haven't finished my calculation," K-2 said.
"I'll make them for you," Cassian said. Then the ship took off out of the planet and into hyperspace. They were safe, for now.
Cassian sent a coded message to the Alliance, telling them about the destruction of Jedha. He got a message back, saying that Galen Erso was on Eadu. That was where the Imperial facility was. Galen was building the weapon there.
"Set a course for Eadu," Cassian ordered.
"Setting course for Eadu," K-2 said back.
Jyn and Jenny looked up at the mention of Eadu. "Is that where our father is?" Jyn asked. She already knew the answer due to the course. Jenny was excited to see her father again, especially after witnessing that emotional message.
Cassian nodded, confirming that they were going there to get him. Jyn and Jenny smiled at him. They needed to get to their father before Krennic realized that Galen lied to him after all these years. They thought it was very brave of him to do. Then the sisters saw a new person in the ship. From the Imperial sign, they figured that this was the pilot sent by their father.
"So you two are Galen's daughters," the pilot said.
Jyn and Jenny nodded at him. "You know him?" Jenny asked.
"I'm Bodhi, the pilot," he said.
The two sister sat by Bodhi so they could speak to him more. They needed more information from him. They needed to know more about him and there father sending him.
"You brought the message," Jyn said. It wasn't a question since she already knew the answer.
Bodhi nodded at the sisters. "Yes. Your father... he said that I could get right by myself. He said I could make it right, if I was brave enough and listened to my heart. Do something about it. Guess it was too late," he explained.
Jyn shook her head at him. The pilot couldn't think what he just said. Especially in a time of war. This weapon can be stopped in time before more planets suffer the same fate as Jedha.
"It wasn't too late," Jyn reassured.
"Seems pretty late to me," Bodhi said.
"No, it's not. We can stop the people who did this. Our father's message, we've seen it!" Jenny said. There was no way she was giving up that easily. She was going to get to her father, no matter what was going to happen in this galaxy.
Jyn nodded in agreement. "It's true. They call it the Death Star. But they have no idea that there's way to defeat it," she said. Then she stood up to face Cassian, who had a stern look on his face. "You're wrong about our father," she said to him.
Cassian rolled his eyes at Jyn. He noticed that Jenny wasn't as rough as Jyn was, but she did seemed determined to get Galen back. He knew what was going to happen, but these girls didn't. It was still best that they wouldn't know what would happen to their father. There would be no reunion for them, that was for sure. He wished that there was another way, but it was the only way.
"He did build it," Cassian argued.
"Because he knew they would do it without him," Jyn countered. "Our father made a choice. He sacrificed himself for the Rebellion. He rigged a trap inside it," she explained.
Jenny nodded in agreement. "He did. Like I said, we saw the message," she said. "That's why he sent you. To bring the message," she said, turning to Bodhi, who just nodded.
"Where is it? Where's the message?" Cassian asked.
Jyn and Jenny shot each other a glance. They realized that they left it behind on Jedha. It was covered in rubble now, or destroyed. Either way, there wasn't no getting it back now. They knew that they were screwed now without it and no one would believe them without seeing the message.
"It was a hologram," Jyn said, simply. She knew it didn't work though. She wasn't expecting it to anyway.
"You have that message, right?" Cassian asked.
Jenny gave a guilty look. "It's kind of, um, blown up now," she said.
Jyn nodded. "Everything happened so fast," she explained.
They knew they were screwed when they saw Cassian's face turn rough. He clearly was frustrated now because of the message.
"Did you see it?" Cassian asked.
"You don't believe us," Jyn said.
"I'm not the one you've got to convince," Cassian warned.
"I believe her!" Baze said.
Cassian rolled his eyes. Of course he was the only one who didn't believe Jyn and Jenny. How could he believe them if he couldn't see the message? There used to be proof, and now there wasn't. He couldn't trust anyone without proof.
"That's good to know," Cassian said sarcastically. "What kind of trap? You said your father made a trap," He asked the sisters.
"The reactor. He's placed a weakness there. He's been hiding it for years," Jyn said. She knew what the Alliance needed to do about the Death Star. But it seemed that it would take a lot of convincing, due to Cassian. Jenny wished that Cassian would believe them.
"He said that if the reactor blows, the whole station will. Send word to the Alliance about it!" Jenny said.
"I've done that," Cassian said.
Jenny rolled her eyes and crossed her arms against her chest. "They need to know that there's a way to destroy it. They have to go to Scarif to get the plans," she explained. Why was Cassian being so difficult?
Cassian started to get fed up with these arguments. For all they knew, it could just be a lie to get the girls on Galen's side. They would be on his side no matter what. They were his daughters anyway. They would obviously believe their father, Imperial scientist or not. He guessed that he would do the same too.
"I can't risk sending that," he said. "We are in the heart of Imperial territory," Cassian explained.
"Then we find him. And bring him back, and he can tell them for himself," Jyn said, ending the argument.
Jyn went back to sit down on the floor with the others. She was glad that everyone else seemed to believe them other than Cassian. She was sick of the captain already due to his attitude. Jenny, on the other hand, felt sympathy for the captain. He seemed like he had been through a lot over the years. He knew the war and the Alliance while Jenny hardly did. She never cared to notice the Imperial Flags while Cassian did.
She walked closer to Cassian and put a hand on his shoulder. The captain noticed this and turned to Jenny, who gave him a small smile. Why wasn't anything coming out of her mouth? Jenny felt a little awkward by doing this.
"I'm sorry. I know you've been through a lot. I don't mean to be like this in any way. I just miss my father. It's been fifteen years since Jyn and I saw him last. We are just determined to get him back. I hope you understand," Jenny said, calmly and cooly.
Cassian gave a small smile back. "It's okay. I know what it's like, not having any family," he said, his smile turning into a sad frown. Jenny knew what might have happened to Cassian's family and she felt really bad for him.
"Once again, I'm sorry," she said. Then Jenny went to sit down next to Jyn, who gave her a pat on the back.
"We'll get him back. I know we will," Jyn reassured. Jenny gave her a determined smile.
"I know we will."
A/N: Wasn't that Jessian moment so cute?
So Jenny knows a little about Cassian's back story now. Ooh! Maybe more will be revealed later. But yeah, that moment was very cute for me to write and cute for you guys to read!
But there may be tension later on after the next chapter. We all know why, don't we guys. DON'T WE GUYS?! Gah! It's going to be sad, yet emotional. Trust me.
I hope you enjoyed! Please review!
