Ah, alas, we now come upon the final chapter. It's been super fun for me to write, hopefully you enjoyed it as well. Read on!
Ahsoka woke up in the middle of the night, while Lux was still sound asleep, and rubbed her swollen belly. She would occasionally awake and have to read a holobook to get her body to fall back asleep. Being 9 months pregnant was not easy. Morning sickness and constant fatigue were just small factors of it she had to deal with. It had become a routine.
She was about to reach for her holobook, when she felt a pang of pain, making her grunt. She dismissed it, and picked up her holobook. But after a little while, she felt it again, this time a little stronger. She was a little worried, but did not waken Lux until she felt another, more painful and closer together shot of pain.
Her mind suddenly snapped her the thought. Oh no. Not now. How could it be any more inconvenient? But, of course, you couldn't tell labor to go away until morning, so she shook Lux.
He groaned in exasperation and annoyedly asked, "What is it, Ahsoka?"
Panicked, she replied, "It's coming. Now. We need to go."
His mind wasn't working so smoothly at 02.00 in the morning. "What's com…" His eyes suddenly shot open and he bolted up. "Now?" He asked.
She exclaimed in pain, then replied, "Yes. Now."
He threw off the covers and pulled her to their ship. He then picked her up bridal style and secured her in the passenger seat. The contractions were becoming intense. He didn't have much time. He jumped into the pilot's seat and sped off in the direction of the nearest Medical Bay.
Upon arrival, he leaped over the ship to her side, and lifted her out. He fast-walked with her in his arms to the desk. The operator's eyes went wide and quickly picked up the comlink. "Emergency personnel. We have a B-23." In hardly a moment, a crew with a wheelchair raced out a door of the bay and came to her. Without even looking at Lux, they sat her down in the wheelchair. As fast as they could go, they went back to the main hallway.
Lux turned to the operator. "She will be taken to room A-237." She spoke calmly.
Lux nodded his thanks and nearly ran to the room. Of course, the door was locked, and he was agonized by her screams. They ensued for a seemingly endless 10 minutes, until they stopped. He held his breath, then felt a new presence in that room. Simultaneously there was a small cry. He waited impatiently. After all eternity, the door opened.
A medical droid motioned him inside. "Congratulations, sir." Was his only words to him. The doctors backed up slightly to allow him to see the baby. She looked up, teary-eyed. "It's a boy." She said. They could have easily found that out earlier, but they agreed to make it a surprise, so as to heighten the fun.
She tilted the wrapped baby towards him. It was a human baby, with hints of brown hair. He was small, but clearly quite energetic. Lux knelt beside the bed.
"He's… beautiful." Were the only words that came out of his mouth. There was a long time of complete silence, admiring the child.
Lux finally turned to her. "What should we name him?"
By this time, the doctors and medical droids had left the room, to give them some privacy.
She looked at the baby. "I think we should name him… Han."
He stared at her, puzzled. "Han? Where'd that come from?"
He flashed him a stern look that lasted but a moment before it softened. "I heard some of the marketplace ladies talking about a Han. I thought it was a very nice name."
He thought for a moment, staring at the child. "Han… it does have a nice ring to it." The baby opened his eyes and gurgled. Strangely enough, it reached out for its mother, despite being only a few minutes old.
Lux chuckled. "He's certainly one-of-a-kind." He said.
Then he thought of something, and voiced a question.
"I don't think it's safe for him to bear either of our last names. Our enemies probably know I'm affiliated with you, and you're a wanted fugitive. He needs a new last name."
She pondered the question. Her face brightened suddenly, and she smiled at Lux. "You yourself said he's one-of-a-kind. I think the last name should be Solo."
He gazed out the window.
"Han Solo it is."
But that is just the beginning.
And so, our story ends here. The tale of two beings who found each other by fate and encountered many adventures together.
A story of love, and darkness, and action. Few have seen it, the winding path.
But these two are well on their way trekking along it. This couple knows the ways of the Forbidden Path.
How'd you like it? Did you gasp and smile as Ahsoka recommended Han as the baby's name? Did I come up with a fitting ending?
Yes, I am talking about the Han Solo we all know. Whether you want to love the idea or criticize me for making Han's parents Lux and Ahsoka, I just thought it would be super-awesome, so I went through with it. But please, if you don't like it, say so sanely, please. Cyber-yelling I don't appreciate that terrible much, haha.
I will be making an epilogue.
Oh, and DON'T FORGET: when you write your review, please let me know if I should make a sequel. If enough people enjoyed it and want me to make another one, please let me know.
If you haven't written a review for this story yet (Or if you have already, it doesn't matter), I beg of you to write one now. I really wanna know how I'm doing.
