Juno opens the door on Galen, he gasps but relaxes when he sees her, he flicks sweat from his brow and enters the hall.
"Oh Galen! I thought you were Syen or Cye, I was about to yell, come and meet Caleb."
"Caleb?"
"Our son."
"Son... Oh Caleb."
Cye bounds down the stairs with his possessions. He cannot stand to stay any longer its only been a short time since Cali left him and took their son with her but it feels longer. Cye walks down to the deserted kitchen as dawn breaks, it has been several hours since he was sure everyone was asleep yet he couldn't tear himself away. This place, to Cye has taken the edge off of the memories that he was born with. The memories he has from Mustafar but now he must leave. His heart grows ever colder as he makes further preparations. He finally reaches the door, he knows better than to hestitate but does so anyway. The smoke is thick in the sky as he finally exits his life to start a fresh. 'This is the way it was meant to be, I was always supposed to be detached from... my emotional attachments." Cye thought as he hauled his rucksack over his left shoulder. The air mocked him as he walked to his ship, yet he did not look back. He couldn't.
Leia sits in her's and Syens bed watching the rise and fall of his muscular chest, she knows that she loves him. She does know this, Doesn't she? Well if she truly loves Syen why does Han play on her mind so much? Why can't she let him go. She sighs as Syen turns over. Han has always been on her mind since day one of this relationship, no wait since day one of knowing him but he faded away from her, he left her with their baby alone and then Syen came along and made her pain dim a bit but she can't let him think that she's using him because shes not. She does love him. But she loves Han too. Maybe even more than she does Syen.
Cali wondered about on the dead capitol world looking for some sort of purpose, yet she couldn't find any. She decided she would squat in the Ruined Temple of the Jedi knights, no one would be there so she could tend Kallium easily without anyone noticing the Emperors child. She drew her cloak's hood up over her head, as she entered the temple she noted the lack of skeletons clad in jedi robes but she soon realised that the murdered Jedi were most likely removed or burnt to ashes in fire.
Kallium is growing too quickly. Would Cye know why? What to do? Cali thought as she removed her cloak and laid it down beside a cracked pillar, then she took the sleeping bundle that she had been struggling to hold and laid it inside the cloak to protect her child from the dust which had engulfed the edges of the cloak as soon as she had laid it down.
"Expecting you, we have been." A little green man stated.
Cali's jaw dropped and she soon found herself retrieving her son and making to run.
"Need to leave, You do not. Jedi We are."
"I r-un fro-m yo-ur kin-d." Cali stammered
"No you run from the one known as Cye. You run not out of fear for yourself but for the boy." Shaak Ti countered
"Your all force sensitive!"
"That, we are." Yoda answered.
"Then the danger is just as much."
"No. We do not wish to kill your son, Cali. We wish to bring peace." Shaak Ti answered
"So you know his future?! You know Kalliums fate? You know what and who he is."
"Yes."
"You know my name. I didn't give you it."
"Holds many answers, the force does."
Cali gruffly turned and inspected the floor as if it had been her aim all along.
"Why isn't there any blood? Any skeletons. Any tattered Fabric?"
"The Jedi here, became one with the force. They did not bleed as one of our own killed them by lightsaber."
"A Jedi killing Jedi? Sure. And I am the saviour of the world."
"Darth Vader, A jedi, He was. Anakin Skywalker, he was."
"The Hero with No Fear."Cali murmured.
"Yes, he betrayed us."
Kallium stirred and began to cry. Cali rocked him as she thought of what to do next.
"He is... Growing too fast, he can almost walk." Cali stated coldly.
"His Father, A clone he is."
"What does that have to do with Kallium?"
"Growth manipulation, his Father had."
"Yes."
"It may be affecting the boy." Shaak Ti inputted.
"Clone's can't have children Master." Maris stated.
"This clone, different he is."
"Cye, was modified while he was sentient." Cali said as tear welled in her eyes.
"Master Yoda, We do not know anything about such a cruel deed, the Clone army was not force sensitive or made to kill just one person."
"Take him, to the council chambers, we must."
"Tell the Gungan commander to set up an attack position to the east, we will send Hornath's unit of forty men to meet them there. Two hundred Clicks should be enough." Galen ordered.
"Of course General but you do know that the Rebel Clones have a base just seventy Five clicks from there?" Kenan answered.
"Yes Lieutenant I am aware."
"Oh Ok. Thanks Galen."
"What for?"
"For helping me enlist to help Naboo."
"Your most welcome."
Kenan nodded his thanks once more and left to inform Hornath of his assignment.
The base had a cold feel to it, the wall's were all grey, the floors were all dark grey, the outside of the base was almost all pure concrete but in the furthest corner to the south wall was a field of grass. Galen turned to inspect his surroundings but found himself all but alone with the chilling breeze that had descended like fog, when all the breeze was, was the rubble-filled air.
