Chapter 2

Mending Feathers

"Can I have my player with me?" Tana asked.

"Why do you want that?" Bailden asked.

"Cause if you put me in a tiny empty room with nothing to do I'll go stir crazy." Tana said.

"We'll see." Bailden said.

"How long am I gonna be here?" Tana asked as Bailden led her to the room they had prepped for her.

"Thirty days." Bailden said.

"THIRTY! I'M GONNA GO CRAZY WITH NOTHING TO DO!" Tana yelled.

"The fresher is behind that door, there's a sonic shower and auto-valet in there as well, you'll have three meals a day, plus counseling." Bailden said then left.

Day 2

Tana sat on the floor watching as various people passed by the plexiglass window.

"So bored. Bored, bored, bored." Tana groaned as she fell back onto the padded floor. A tap on the glass caught her attention, she looked, her uncle Crix Madine was there, Tana rolled onto her side so her back was to him. She hated the fact that he let them put her here.

Madine sighed as he watched her turn her back to him, it broke his heart to see her do that.

"She'll be all right, just give her some time." Bailden said as he walked into the room for Tana's counseling session.

Day12

"So how are you feeling today Tana?" Bailden asked.

"If I had the energy I'd kick your ass." Tana snarled.

"Here's your breakfast." Bailden said setting a tray down on the table.

"Oh boy, powdered shit and Duro-crud." Tana said in mock joy.

"Vanilla bactaid and brown sugar and cinnamon oatmeal." Bailden said.

"Fine, powdered shit with flavor and flavored Duro-crud. Lucky me."

Day19

( Poor little cub.) Chewie woofed as he looked in at Tana, who was currently lying on the floor on her back with her legs up against the wall.

"Has Madine even come to see her once yet?" Han asked.

"Yes he's here every chance he gets, along with a few other people." Leia said coming up to them.

Day 23

Tana sat shuddering on the floor of the fresher, her face and chest drenched in sweat.

"It's hot...so hot." Tana murmurs, before she hunches over the toilet and throws up again.

"Here, this will help." Leia says as she gives her a pill and a glass of water, Tana swallows the pill and gulps down the water before laying back down on the cold tile floor.

"Thank you." Tana murmurs.

Day 30

"Good morning Tana. Do you know what day it is today?" Bailden asks, Tana shakes her head slightly. "Today is the day you can leave. Your uncle is waiting outside for you when you're ready."

Tana walks out of the room and sees her uncle along with Leia, Han, Luke and Chewie.

Luke held a bunch of mylar balloons with the words 'You Made It!' on them. Tana looked at them quizzically.

"They were out of the ones that said 'I survived re-hab' on them so this was the next best thing." Luke said jokingly, giving her the balloons.

"Was that a joke Luke? Oh my gods! Little Lukie just made his first joke!" Han feigned shock.

Tana laughed slightly at their antics.

"Welcome back Tana." Madine said hugging her tightly.

"I'm sorry I acted that way uncle, I know you only did it to help me." Tana murmured as she hugged him.

An hour later back in her room Tana hunts through her things, after a while Tana finds everything she's looking for and puts it all in a container and leaves.

Tana rings the chime of her uncle's door.

"Come in." Is the muffled reply. Tana enters. "Hello Tana, how are you feeling?" Madine asks as he hugs her.

"Better." Tana says, "here, it's the hidden supply I had in my room, can you get rid of it."

"Thank you Tana," Madine says solemnly as he takes the box from her. "Would you like some tea?
