CHAPTER TEN
Casting the Stone
Luke stepped out into the huge airlock where the Lady Luck and his X-wing were waiting, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Jcnica had taken them on a roundabout route, but they had gotten here faster than he had thought possible. And with that clock counting down toward the death of Bovo Yagen, there was no time at all to waste.
He thought he knew what he had to do next, but he had to be sure.
He had to check. The others watched as Luke found a packing crate that had been abandoned on the airlock deck and sat down on it. He shut his eyes and concentrated, forcing himself to take it slow, to be sure, to extend his senses as far as possible.
"Leia is on Selonia," he said at last as he opened his eyes. "No doubt about it. I can feel her there. My guess is that Han is with her, and probably Mara Jade as well. The three children are on Drall, and if what Kalenda told us is right about how they all escaped from Corellia, that probably means Chewbacca and the Falcon arc there with them. I can get a sense of a mind that's probably Chewbacca, but I can't be sure. Not at this range. And I might add that all of them seem worried. It's hard to explain, but-but I get the sense, the
feeling, that all of them-Leia and the kids, and the people with them-are all prisoners of one sort or another."
"Then we'd better get cracking and bust them out," Lando said briskly. "You go to Leia," Lando said. "Take Artoo and the X-wing. Figure out the coordinates for the kids' location on Oral! and give them to me.
I'll fly Gaericl and Jenica back to the Bakuran fleet, where they can inform Admiral Ossilege of what we have learned. Gaeriel should get back to her post on the ship, and Jenica is our expert on Centerpoint. She ought to be of some help if things get rough. After I've dropped them off, Lieutenant Kalenda and I will fly on to Drall and see what we can do about getting to Chewbacca and the kids."
Jenica looked toward Lando. "You're not very optimistic, are you?"
"We don't know how to find the Drall repulsor," Lando replied. "I don't care how good an engineer Chewbacca is, there isn't going to be any way for him to work on a repulsor he can't get to. We have to rescue them, of course, but unless they're sitting right on top of a repulsor, I don't see how finding Chewbacca is going to help us get one." He turned back to Luke. "Leia is by far the better chance. She's on a planet where they've got a working repulsor, and it's probably controlled by the people holding her. All you have to do is let her know what's going on, and then hope she can talk her captors into jamming Centerpoint."
Luke smiled faintly. "Yeah. Easy. Should be a piece of cake.
