Coruscant Orbit

[Hana Solo]

Hana hummed as she tuned her whip up late that night. Kyla poked her head into the main area. Without turning, Hana spoke.

"Hi, Ky. Can't sleep?" she asked.

"No," Kyla admitted, sitting beside Hana. "I just keep having nightmares."

"I know. I felt them." Hana said, looking over at Kyla.

"They were of the Vong." Kyla said with a shudder.

"Creepy, aren't they," Hana chuckled. She put the whip down. "But you don't need to worry about them. They're on Utapau and thats a long way from here." Kyla smiled.

"Thanks, Mum," she said. Hana put her arms around the teenager's shoulders.

"Just remember, Ky, that despite all the death and danger in the universe, all the darkness, there is light." she said in a strangely sentimental way. "And that no matter what happens in the night, or how long it lasts, the sun always rises." she was smiling, remembering having this conversation with Gus. Kyla gazed wonderingly at her mother. She looked so much more tender than usual. Then Hana shook her head and the moment was over. "Go back to bed, Ky, and sweet dreams. I love you." she kissed Ky on the forehead and watched Kyla leave.

Hana emerged, singing softly.

[Hana Solo]

But Hana wasn't even thinking about him. Her thoughts dwelled on Kyla inside as she kept singing. Her gaze passed him briefly but she thought nothing of him, like any of the other strangers around.

She straightened her black cloak, which her lightsabre and whip were concealed beneath- no point inviting trouble- as she sat on the ramp to her ship.

[Hana Solo]

"Hey, thats J," Hana said, stopping singing, not too bothered by the appearance of the police. "What, got a bounty on her or something?"

[Hana Solo]

"Underground." Hana said. She concentrated. "Southern underground." she said after a minute. "In relation to what, exactly? If you don't mind me asking."

*The Atlantean emereges from hyperspace and begins Commander Kayla McIntyre begins flying the ship towards Coruscant to pick up Master Windancer.*

[Hana Solo]

"Hey, mate," Hana called, rising to follow him. "I think there's something else too. She's got a bounty on her and I'm thinking you want her for something else."

[Hana Solo]

"I keep an eye on the news," Hana replied evenly, hand on her lightsabre hilt. "And no, I won't. In fact, I'll help you. Tell you about her, if you'll cut me half. Might even go for her myself." she smiled slightly, and it wasn't so pleasant.

[Hana Solo]

Hana shook it.

[Hana Solo]

"Yes, thats a good start. I can comm her and we can pinpoint her position now it you want." Hana pulled out her commlink with a nod. "Lets go."

[Hana Solo]

"Okies," Hana said cheerfully.

The Bloody Weasel hung in orbit as Jael prepared to hit the hyperspace lever. "Thanks for this Gareth." She was pulling all manner of faces as she felt for Hana's emotions. "Not good." she muttered.
Gareth watched her curiously but said nothing from long experience. He trusted her with his life, but he knew she would never wholly trust him.
Jael hit the lever and they dissapeared into hyperspace heading for Yavin.

*The Atlantean bearing Commander Kayla McIntyre and Master Windancer arrive in orbit. Kayla plots a return course for Yavin IV into the navicomputer and then engages the hyperdrive. The ship vanishes as it enters lightspeed.*

[Hana Solo]

Hana frowned. "She's moving," she reported. "She's left the planet. Going to... Yavin I think." she probed out with the Force. "Yes, definintly Yavin."

[Hana Solo]

Hana chuckled. "Just a little tight. Yeah, I have a ship." she jerked her thumb behind her. "You staked it out. If you want, there's room for another starfighter in the hold. You can put yours beside the Heart."
