Contiued from the last chapter. This is when Jango gets back from Bounty Hunting.
As Jango landed the Slave I on the platform he glanced back at the sea. Sure this was his home, but he was glad to get away from the never ending rain sometimes. The only thing that kept him coming back was Boba and his paycheck. Jango stood up and put his helment on. Zam was waiting for him by the hatch. "Come on, When we finished I thought you couldn't get back to the Slave I faster. Know your too slow."
Jango replied, "Zam could you just shut up for once." He asked opening up the hatch to the outside.
Zam smiled and walked past Jango, giving him a sharp hit on his helmet when she walked past. "No I can not."
Jango swore a curse under his breath and followed her in to Tipoca City.
"So you think boba is still alive?" Zam asked.
"He better be." jango said angerly as they walked though the white halls.
"Oh Jango you take some questions to literly. Of coarse he is still alive." Zam said rolling her eyes.
Jango stood in front of the door, standing silently listening for voices. But he couldn't hear anything. He silently entered and saw the place completely clean and orderly, but no life, all was quiet.
"Whats wrong?" Zam asked her face showing concern.
"Their not here." Jango said, taking off his helmet.
Zam was about to say something when both looked down the hall. Faint voices could be heard and they were getting louder. All of a sudden two streaks appear from around a corner.
"Duck!" Both crouch down as the two streaks rushed over head.
"Get back here! You had an unfair start!" Jango recognized Caitlyns voice.
"No your just too slow!" Then Bobas voice. The two rushed around another corner and their voices faded in to the distance.
Jango stood up slowly. "What was that for?" He asked rubbing his face.
"They were racing Holoboards. Really good ones to by the speed they were going." Zam said, looking quiet impressed.
Jango immediaty got really mad. He told Boba to never trust those things. They were dangerous. Jango turned around as he heard the two kids coming back.
"you know what Boba, I swear by the way you race, you must of invented the holoboard." Caitlyn said coming around the corner, caring the interkitly paited Holoboard. Boba walked beside her caring his own painted board. "and that 360 you did it was..." Caitlyn trailed off when she saw Jangos face. "Hello Jango."
Boba smiled for a little bit, looking slyly towards Caitlyn. "Hi Daddy."
Caitlyn turned towards Boba as Jango walked towards them. "I think you were right about your father killing me." Caitlyn looked up and looked up at Jango. "Had a nice hunt?" She asked nervously.
"Up untill now good." Jango turned towards Boba and his frown deepened. "Didn't I tell you these were dangerous?"
"Yes and I should not of accepted this gift and.." Boba trailed off for a second. Then hopped on to his holo board and said. "Run for your lives!" And he sped away, with Caitlyn close behind. Caitlyn stopped and said. "You'll never catch me alive!" and then turned a different corner, racing out of site.
"God damn Caitlyn! I hate her." Jango yelled as he stormed in to his living area.
"Your the one that trusted her with Boba, not me." Zam pointed out as she flopped down on to the couch.
Jango frowned as he put his mask down. She had a point. He told her he was going to change and went to his room.
Zam watched as Jango walked away. I should but in on him while he is changing, nah. She smiled as she heard more voices and the door opened.
"Were back and still in tack!" Caitlyn half yelled as she entered.
Boba giggled a bit but was smiling all the same. He had his board with him but carried it tightly agenst his side, like he was afraid Jango was going to take it. Caitlyn put her board down and walked away in to Bobas room. Boba placed his beside Caitlyns and ran after her in to his room. Zam got up and studied the two boards. Both had a madlor warriors on it, what surprised her is it reminded her of Jango in a odd way. It wasn't just the armor, but the colors seemed like they had once been painted on his armor. Caitlyn was a Green with red trim armored guy shooting a beast on the other side and Boba was the same person except when you looked at it you were staring at the end of a gun. Some skill who ever painted these had.
"Hey Jango come here and look at this." Zam said as Jango walked out of his room wearing a syimple white shirt and dark blue pants.
"What Zam? I have a..." He froze when he saw the two boards. "Thats was what my armor looked like when I was younger." Jango picked up Caitlyn board and studied the figure. "Except the paint wasn't coming off."
"Oh by the way that isn't you." Jango and Zam both turned to face Caitlyn was was leaning in the door way of Bobas room. Boba was sleeping in his bed. She stepped out and closed the door.
"Who is it then?" Jango asked. Jango saw a look of nervousness cross Caitlyns face."Who?"
"It a character I made up. His name is Bayday Fett, he is a bounty hunter with almost no heart and hunt dangerous bounties. I one story I wrote his father trained him so much as a bounty hunter that he forgot to teach him how to be human, so he would just go around killing who ever for money." Caitlyn said as took the board from Jango.
"Why would you create such a heartless person, even if he just dose live in stories?" Zam asked her face looking quite confused.
Because that's what Boba could become! You don't know! Caitlyn screamed in her mind. She quickly blinked away tears and rubbed her face. "Oh I guess I was just bored." Caitlyn voice sounded Shaky. "I am going to bed. I'll see Boba to bed if you want." She turned away and went in to Bobas room shutting the door behind her.
Jango watched her go. "Jango lets go to bed. We had a long hunt a sleep in a bed would be nice." Zam said softly putting a hand on his shoulder. Jango shook her off and also went in to Bobas room.
Zam sighed and smiled lightly. Jango was starting to get attached to Caitlyn and he didn't even know it.
Jango had entered Bobas room quietly and looked around. a small light in the corner of the room gave just enough to see Caitlyn lieing on the floor next to Bobas bed. Jango walked over then noticing he heard soft crying. He looked at Boba and saw he was smiling, but when he looked at Caitlyn she was crying. Sleep crying about who know what, but Jango felt sadened by the girl crying. So he sat down next ot her and picked up. Caitlyn snuggled in to Jango and stopped crying. He felt like a more of a father now then he ever did. He taught Boba eary on crying was not really good, but every once in a while he would cry because he fell face flat or something like that, but Boba was a young boy now. Not a toddler.
All I have to to is.. is put... to put.. her.. back..down...Jango line of thought trailed off as he fell asleep leaning up against the wall with Caitlyn sleeping in his arms.
Zam waited for Jango for about 5 minutes. When he didn't appear in the bedroom she got up and went to Bobas room. When she peeked in seh saw Jango asleep with Caitlyn sleeping in his lap, looking happier than she did before she went in to the room.
Aww so cute! Zam thought as she closed the door and went back to Jango's room and went to sleep.
Man Why do I feel so sore and stiff? Jango opened his eyes and saw the light filtering in from outside Bobs room. He must of fallen asleep here. He looked down and saw Caitlyn was no longer in his lap. He got up and stretched quietly, so he didn't wake Boba, then he slipped out of his room.
Caitlyn was standing in the middle of the room wearing her armor, her helmet on the table and two blaster in their respective places. She stopped and turned around, her face looking densely sorry. "Good Morning." she said quietly.
"What are you doing?" Jango asked stepping forward.
Caitlyn looked up in to Jangos face and sighed. "I'm... I'm leaving." She paused looking down at her feet. "I am sorry to leave so early but I need to go."
"Why?" Jango eyes were starting to show sadness, rare moment.
"I don't know. I just can't stay.' She picked up her helmet and Holoboard. "Thanks for what you did last night." Caitlyn eyes where starting to cry but she held them back.
Jango watched as she wlaked to the door and said. "Say good bye to Zam and Boba for me." As she opened the door and stepped out she turned to face Jango. "Good bye.. Dad." Then she ran disappearing down out of the door way.
Jango just sat down on the couch as the door closed. She just called me dad? Was I that nice to her?
As Caitlyn ran to the platform the Rosethorn I was on, she started to cry. No one had acted that fatherly to her. This galaxy never even saw her father or mother, they died a long time ago. He was now the closest thing she had to a dad. Yes most people would stay and live there, but to Caitlyn it brought many memories of days when life was not so twisted that sometimes you found your self staring at a tail you don't have. Cailtyn put on her helmet and piloted the ship up and off Kamino. I am so sorry. She thought as the Rosethorn entered hyperspace.
Oh so Caitlyn formed an attachment to Jango. Jango even liked her with out knowing untill now.. Stay tuned more soon!
