The Love Commander waited, clamped by magnetic landing gear to the stern of the Anakin Solo, Han and Jaina staying alert for an opportunity to launch when the ship's gunners were likely to be distracted. The opportunity had not yet come. The Star Destroyer's complement of starfighters had launched, joining the engagement between the capital ship fleets, leaving none behind to harass the yacht, but the instant the yacht moved away from the vessel it would come within sight of its turbolasers and ion cannons.

Leia, seated in the captain's chair, grew more restless ... and then was hit by a wave of hatred. Redness and heat swamped her-hatred for the Jedi, hatred for Luke, for the Confederation, for lasers and explosives and chaos. She gasped, her back spasming from the overload of emotion. In the starboard seat ahead of her, she saw Jaina jerk, but her daughter was less affected than she had been.

"Sweetheart? Leia! What's wrong?" In an instant Han was by her side, gripping her flailing hand, helpless concern on his face.

"It's Jacen. He's out there." She gestured to starboard, well away from the Anakin Solo. "He's ... I don't know. I've never felt him like this." She shook her head to clear it. "Luke's there, too."

Han's expression shifted from concern to grim determination. "All right. We're going now, turbolasers or no turbolasers. Time to prove that I can fly a sand bucket through an ion storm." He returned to his seat, strapped himself in.

Jaina's voice was a rebuke. "That we can."

"Right. We'll argue over who's second best when we're out of here."
