Chapter 16

Kelsey

Ever wonder how you wind up doing stupid stuff in a crazy, tough situation that you initially thought it was a good idea in the beginning but it wasn't?

Well, take me for example.

As soon as I took that leap, I knew I somehow became stupid.

I held on to the blaster as I went flying down the cliff. My heart was racing a million seconds as I tried to suppress a scream.

Oh kriff help me.

It wasn't until I landed on something that I snapped out of it. I moaned a bit in pain as I sat up and saw that it was all metal.

Metal? What the...

I looked down and to my shock, I was on top of the Falcon.

What the kirff?

How is this possible?

I went into my pocket and pulled out my comlink.

"Han? Luke? Is this for real now?" I asked.

"Kelse? Oh thank the kirff," Han's voice answered. I could hear Chewie barking loudly in the background.

"Kelsey, are you alright?" Luke asked worriedly.

"I will be once we get the hell out of here," I replied, standing up.

A shot was fired and I jumped to see a few storm troopers up in the middle of the cliff shooting at me. I shot back as I crouched down on the Falcon.

"Crap there's still more of them," I said.

"We got it covered sis, just hang on," Han said.

"Hopefully," I said as I continued to fire back. "You two keep firing at them at anyway you can while I take care of them from here."

"What? No Kelsey it's too dangerous," Luke said.

"Well, unless you two jockeys got another plan we don't have that much of a choice now do we?" I asked.

Chewie moaned something that I couldn't understand. "And where are we supposed to land?" Han asked.

I paused a second before I spoke again.

"Guys, if something were to happen..."

"Sis, don't worry we got this," Han said.

"I know but worst case scenario..."

"No." Luke's voice rang in a firm tone. "No Kelsey. I won't let you talk like that. We're getting you in here safe and then we're getting out of here. I won't let anything happen to you."

I stood there stunned. Does Luke really believe that?

Before I had a chance to respond, another shot rang out, making me jump and drop my comlink which rolled away off the Falcon.

So much for communicating with them. Looks like I'm on my own with this one for now.

I stood up straight and held my ground as we fought. This was something that I've never had to do in a million years. I held my ground and ducked when I took the chance. I saw that there were more troopers down by the river below as I took aim at them.

I hope Luke, Han and Chewie are managing well in the Falcon.

I kept firing as I tried to remain my balance. A shot was fired and I tried to duck but lost my balance. I felt my body fall backward as I was about to fall of the edge of the ship. A hand shot out and took a hold of my arm, stopping me from falling. I looked up and stood straighter as I saw those familiar eyes.

Luke.

I remained frozen in my spot and I just jumped into his arms. That's when I felt safe yet again only this time I didn't want to let go.

"You're okay, you hear me?" Luke said in my ear. I could only nod since I'm speechless right now.

"I got you," he whispered. "Come on."

"Wait just..."

"Just hold on to me," he said.

I still held on to his arm as he led me towards the opening part of the Falcon. He climbed down and I soon followed. The top part of the Falcon opened up to my amazement.

When the hell was that put in?

Luke stepped on to the platform and I followed. I wrapped my arms around his waist as we were lowered into the Falcon.

"I got her," Luke said.

"Great now let's get the hell out of here," Han's voice rang out loud from the cockpit

Chewie's loud growls can be heard as the ship took off away from Felucia. I stood in my spot, shocked at what happened. I could feel the adrenaline rush still going through my body as I processed everything. I slowly walked away from Luke and leaned against the table in the main hold my back facing away from him.

I couldn't believe what just happened and yet here I am and I somehow survived.

I felt Luke's hand on my shoulder as I spun around to face him. His face displayed scared but relief and worry as he pulled me into his arms again. I buried my face into the crook of his neck and I didn't want to be left alone in that moment.

Or ever for that matter.

Whoa, where did that come from?

"Kriff, Kelsey you scared me. I thought..." Luke said, as he held on to me as if he was afraid to let go of me.

"I'm fine," I said. "Shaken up but fine."

"Sis," Han's voice rang out as he and Chewie came up to us from the cockpit. "That was...kriff thank goodness you're alright."

"Yeah that was something. Han, just promise me one thing," I said.

"What is it?" Han asked.

"The next time you try to find me, try not to surprise me when I jump on to the bucket of bolts," I said.

Han rolled his eyes but let out a small smile in the end.

-LINE BREAK-

"Ow. Easy."

"Sorry," Luke said as he was examining my hand. "I don't think it's broken."

"It's not," I said.

"How can you tell?"

"I would be in worse pain than now and besides, punching a storm trooper in the face with the helmet, not a pleasant idea," I replied.

Luke and I sat at the table in the main compartment. My right hand was bruised from punching that storm trooper earlier but my hand wasn't broken as far as to my knowledge. Han had set course to another planet to get the crate that had the same supplies from a different planet before we headed back. I looked up and saw that he had a small scratch on his right cheek.

"I have bacta somewhere," I said.

"For what?"

"Your face. There's a small scratch but I rather be safe than sorry until we get back to base," I replied, getting up from my spot.

I left the main hold before Luke had the chance to respond. I headed towards one of the rooms and went to the medical kit to grab bacta. I headed back to where Luke was and led him to the makeshift bed. I squeezed a small amount on to my hand as I felt his eyes on me.

"Just hold still," I said, putting a small amount on his cheek. "Okay done."

"You didn't have to do that," Luke said.

"I know but think of it as gratitude for what you've done for me. I know I can be stubborn sometimes but..."

"It's alright. I'm so glad you're alright. You do have to tend to scare people sometimes when you do risks like that," Luke said.

"At least I'm not being useless," I said, leaning back into my seat on the bed.

"You should rest. You look exhausted," Luke pointed out.

"No I can't and someone has to make sure..."

"Kelsey," Luke said in a stern tone placing his hands on mine. "Just rest even if it's for just awhile. I don't want nothing else to happen to you. Just for my sanity and for your brother's."

While I wish I could've stood my ground, I knew in the end I couldn't win this one. I nodded as I lied down on the bed.

Luke got up from his seat as I got comfortable. He pushed a single strand of my hair out of my face. Subconsciously, I leaned into his touch. Luke took a moment to study me as if he was afraid to leave me. With an assuring nod, he went to find Han to see if he needed help.

Am I developing feelings for Luke?

Whatever that moment was, was it so bad that I didn't want that to end?

Oh snap out of it why would he like you like that anyways?

As I turned to face the wall, I couldn't even fall asleep once during the trip back.

A/n Well I hope this was slightly better than the last chapter LOL. I've never done this type of action scene before ever so I hope I did justice.

Next couple chapter I know what's going to happen. The ending, I'm still working on how to work that out when it comes to Confessions. When there's a will there's a way. Oh and her feelings for Luke? She's going to know very soon. Maybbeee next chapter? *in a singsong voice* Who knows?

Also I'll be doing a bit of a revamp on my story covers for my stories in the coming weeks. I say coming weeks very loosely only because RL can be tricky sometimes.

Woo we reached 20 reviews! I know it may not seem enough but I can't thank you all enough for your patience and support! We got a few ways to go now and I can't wait to see you all next week!
