Star Wars (Closed)

Elias floated Hiro’s saber back to him.
“Understandable. Our saber colors aren’t the typical blue and green either. Ours are orange. Because the Tano woman was like wow you guys are kind of thrifty, and the orange saber denotes ambition, creativity, and resourcefulness. And we met that criteria because we survived and thrived and went with it. It was also because the crystals we got on Ilum turned orange when we found them. Ilum was a nice planet. Reminded me of home.”

Winter grabbed Estelle’s hand and held it tight.
“I know, I know. I’m better now, but it’s not easy. The ridiculousness of it all is insane. Being a senator isn’t for the faint of heart. I don’t know how Leia or anyone else does it. Elias and I aren’t even important senators and we get slammed with so many things. It’s maddening. I’m just glad I have family that help me through this. I couldn’t have asked for more. Now I’m going to leave so you two can get dressed. But not after another hug.”
Winter hugged Shiloh and Estelle. And put her breast plate and leg armor back on. She picked up her cape and put it back on.
“I’ll see you guys in 15 minutes. I know you two are going to make senators both male and female weak in the knees. You just have that effect on Coruscant. Knock ‘em dead girls!”

Elias shrugged.
“I mean that tracks. Your Mando’a. They possess the dark saber. A black light saber isn’t typical, but considering the history you have, I can guess that blade wasn’t always black. The Crystal bled after the tragedy of you losing you family, and it changed color to match your grief. I doubt it’ll change back, but it’s interesting.”
Winter walked back through the airlock and started to walk back towards the room where she had left they boys. She knocked on the door.
“I’m back. We can open the box now. Frost would you like to do the honors?”
Frost scrambled to the bed and hopped on top of it. Winter leaned forward and put the code in. The box unlocked with a faint hiss. Frost gently lifted the latch, and inside the box, were three sabers. The hilts were very decorated. A deep blue inlaid with silver and sleek. In the best sense, it matched the idea of Hoth.
Winter picked up Frost’s and handed it to him. He took it delicately and gently put it in his belt.
Winter picked up Elias’ and tossed it to him. He chuckled and put it in his belt. Winter looked over hers and slid it into her belt. Elias looked at her.
“What’s our eta for landing?”
Winter pushed her hair behind her ears.
“Well, as far as the Navi computer says, we have fifteen minutes or less before we land on our spot on Coruscant. And then we deal with the Coruscant paparazzi and people who are just dying to see us.”

Winter smiled softly at Hiro.
“If your mother was anything like you, she was an amazing person. And who knows? Maybe you’ll fully heal one day and the saber will turn blue again.”
Elias looked over at Hiro.
“Until then, a black saber is pretty cool. Anyways, we’re going to have to head up to the cockpit and start our landing protocol. Would you like to get your very first bird’s eye view of Coruscant?”

Winter and Elias laughed.
“Come on then! It’s very different from the planet we left. The entire planet is a giant city, full of skyscrapers built on the ruins of the long forgotten ones. Coruscant never tears down. They only build up.”
Frost skipped happily beside his mother as they walked to the cockpit. Winter sat down in her chair and Elias sat in his.
“Alright Win. I’m dropping out of hyperspace.”
Winter put on her headset.
“Copy that hun. We are on landing pad senate 4275. I already have confirmation that Leia is waiting on our arrival. I have no clue who is going to be on the landing pad, but we will see soon enough.”

Winter gracefully navigated the ship through the atmosphere.
“Now Hiro, we have about five minutes before we land. We’re at cruising altitude. Look at the views!”
Frost giggled and pressed his face to the glass.
“Everything is so shiny Ada and Ama!”
Elias and Winter smiled.
“Yes Frost. Everything here is very shiny.”

Frost laughed with glee as he gained more access to glass higher up.
Winter spoke over the headset.
“Elias. You get to clean the glass. That’s too tall for me.”
A chuckle came over the mic.
“Roger roger hun. I’ll get it later.”
