Leave

The lump in my throat grew as I grabbed my bags to go on my mission to find my best friend Jinx Miakoda. She had went missing. Force I missed her.

George came in sitting with me.

"You ready to do this?" He asked trying to lighten the tension in the room.

"I guess." I whispered staring down at the floor.

George wrapped an arm around me. "Its gonna be okay."

A faint smile was my only response.

I steered The Freedom Rider to the left. * * * I stand up rushing out of the ship with George right behind me.

"We have our lead." I said.

I would know that lightsaber anywhere.

I turned it on examining the purple shaded blade. It was Jinx alright.

"Is this Jinx's?" George asked rubbing the dust off the ground.

I just nodded.

I knew this would be the place. Many Jedi had been kidnapped or murdered around this area. I began breathing quickly. A vain in my head began to bulge. My feet hurt. I felt the weight of the world on my shoulders. My hands began shaking.

George pulled me away.

"Come on. You shouldn't be here." He whispered glaring at the rectangle we stood in one last time.

"I'll drive the speeder." George offered sitting me down.

I nodded slumping down in my seat.

The depression began coming back again.

I knew every time. I would have dreams. Bad dreams. Nightmares. Every time for the past seven months I would have dreams of Jace, Uncle Denny, George, Jinx, Meredith, Van Anakin, Belda, Kriss and Phobia. They were screaming and crying. * * * I woke up in George's arms.

"Shh." He whispered.

I lifted up my head.

"What's wrong?" George asked handing me a cup of water.

"It was a nightmare." I whispered.

"We were in it."

I looked confused. "Who's 'we'?"

"Everyone in your life you care about."

I knew he was gonna say that. * * * I took over the wheel that morning letting George wrest.

The tracker began beeping. It was time again. To be continued...
