Nait rubbed his temples as a requiem of the day's events ran through his mind. He felt remotely tired, and his muscles seemed full of sand. He walked to the room he and Naos shared. He felt a familiar tingle in his hands as he reached for the doorknob. He rolled his eyes halfheartidly. Naos using the Force, again. He was persistent, Nait would give him that.
Nait opened the door, his mind sluggish. He didn't notice Naos scream his sister's name, or even remember falling on the spare bed. He rubbed his temples slowly, a migraine working its way into his skull. Some natural instinct told him that it wasn't him feeling this, that it was someone else.
Reaching out, he felt a slight pull at his mind, right where the connection with Scout used to be. It was just a slight pull, but what little awareness Nait had told him his sister wasn't dead. A small echo sounded in his mind: the thud of skull on wall. A small cry of pain. Another thud, another cry.
Then it was gone, just as suddenly. Nait rubbed the spots of color from his eyes, and gingerly felt his head where he imagined the wall hit him. Nothing. Whoa.
"She's still alive," he breathed. He felt nothing else. Perhaps she had gone into unconsciousness. But he had good news, now. She was still alive…

Hours later, Chok announced the Killer was dropping out of hyperspace at Kamino. I sat in my quarters with Nack on my lap, his les around mine and he was playing with a block.
"I'm going into the cockpit, Nack." I said to him simply and put him on the ground, I got up but he ran and stumbled a little after me
"I go too. I neve letting you leave me again Daddy!" he said to me with a smile and cluthced my leg but I grabbed him and held him
I then continued to the cockpit, walking through a few halls and when I got in there I looked through the viewport as we approached the rainy planet that was Kamino. Chok just chose one of the landing pads, not bothering to contact the Kaminoans for docking procedures which I am not sure if we even could, and slowly sat the Killer down.
"Oooh, this like fishy planet!" Nack shouted and tried to wiggle out of my grasp so he could get a closer look, I sat him down and he went up to the cockpit controls but was not tall enough to see out of it so he tried to climb into a chair and managed to succeed, then he stared in awe at the planet that reminded him of his home
"We land Captain." Chok said, spinning the pilot's chair around to face me once the Killer was completely set down on the landing pad

Nait came up and leaned over Sora. "Finally," he said. The last few hours had been pressing on him. "Kal's contacting them now. Some sort of secret frequency." Nait was making an effort to be lighthearted. And it was a bad effort. You could taste the darkness under his tone.
"Sora," he said quietly. "I don't blame you for anything. I apologize if I was rude to you these last couple hours."

I looked at Nait and gave a very breif smile. Or what I could. "Listen, Nait, you don't have to aplogize. I understand. You are protective of Scout, her only real family member left. I would do the same thing as you. Don't think I am all a great person either when it comes to anger or blame. I often blamed and got angry at Nack's mother when I shouldn't have, and if I hadn't she probably wouldn't be dead today." I said, looking down, it was true, and I still felt guilty about that too

"Oh." And that was all he could say. "Well… that's an interesting concept to uphold." Aww, crap, did he HAVE to say that?
"Just so you know, if I was angry at you, you'd know." He held out his hand. "Friends?"

I grabbed Nait's hand and shook it "Freinds." I replied with a small grin
"But...don't let what happened to Rachea because of my mistakes frighten you. All I'm saying is, your anger is fine because you are protective of your sister. And if you stay that way, which I have no doubt you will, I would expect her to be fine. You are more skilled then you give yourself credit for, Nait." I told him, placing both my hands on his shoulders

"And you're smarter than it seems," he said with a grin. "Listen, while we were on our way here, Jaing found a promising lead. It's a Low-Security one, but hardly anyone know about it. But… I think it might be a trap, you know? I'm afraid of what I'll find."

I thought for a moment. "It's better than nothing." I told Nait "But, you are right when you say it's good be a trap. If Vader learns from his mistakes he knows he's going to have to be more clever and smart with us. He won't just let us walk into some place unless it is a trap. We need to get more information on the prison first."

Nait shrugged. "Jaing's got everything. It was buried deep in the files. Names of prisoners, too. Jaing thinks Scout could be Juni Streen, whose scheduled for execution in a week's time. Someone high-up will be the one to kill her. Probably Vader. Streen's fourteen-years-old, blonde hair, 5'7, blue eyes… Matches Scout good. She's one of the seventeen percent that don't have a picture. She was supposed to be transferred to High Security, but it was cancelled."
"This stuff was hard to find, even for Jaing, but Vader's smart. It's your lead, Sora. If you don't go, I'll go myself to check it out. I think Jask and Naos would want to come with me if I asked them."

"Oh, no, I am going alright. I want to find her just as much as you do. If this girl matches Scout exact and it came from Jaing who seems to be pretty smart at this stuff, I'm gonna go for it. Trap or not. And we have to hurry. But I hope the Kaminoans have spare ships around, because it would be better to not use the Killer or Selas's ship to infiltrate the prison. Both are probably known to all Imperials." I said to Nait, looking straight at him and seriously thinking about all of this....
