" Not to brag or anything but I think the nine of us would fit better on my ship. Especially since you can dock your ship in mine?"
They all stare at me in silence and Echo asks " Are you telling us that....."
" that you have a ship that will fit all nine of us and we won't be on top of each other?" Finishes Wrecker.
I shrug and say " Yeah....."" What kind of ship ?" Asks Hunter crossing his arms.
I smirk at them and as I say " A modified VCX-100 Freighter."
Crosshairs tooth pick falls from his open mouth, Wrecker falls to his rear in shock. Tech fogs up his glasses, Echo's left eye twitches , And Hunter.... well he kind of just stares at me.
" How in the moons of tattooine did you get a VCX-100 freighter?" Exclaims Wrecker. I shrug and mumble something.
Hunters eyebrows raise at my answer . Should've known he would've heard me .
" You've got to be kidding me......" he exclaims. He then proceeds to laugh...... and laugh. The others just look at him like he's crazy. I huff and him and look down at my babies.
"I'd like to know what's so funny..." Crosshairs exclaims. Hunter catches his breath and says
" She won it from ...CID!!" Says Hunter between breaths
The others burst into laughter tears are rolling down Echo's face. Tech is shaking his head. Wrecker is on the ground on his back kicking his legs in the air holding his stomach. And Crosshairs is chuckling off to the side. I look at them and shake my head laughing as well.
" You have to tell us how you won that ship!" Exclaims Omega
I shrug and Pass Cassian into her arms . " You got him?" She nods and I stand with Rory. " come on you knuckle heads . Let's go board my ship."
I lead the group to my ship. Well I tried to but after ten minutes Hunter took Rory and handed her to Echo. Then he proceeded to sweep me up into his arms.
" Hunter I can walk." I grumble." Zara , you just gave birth not even an hour ago. Now where's this ship of yours at?" I sigh in frustration at his stubbornness.
" Its over this hill in a meadow."
He looks back over at the others and I follow his gaze. I chuckle at the sight of these strong men cooing over my babies. Wrecker is waving his finger at Rory and she grabs it and squeezes.
" Whoa there little lady! Nice grip!" He exclaims. I turn to look at Omega, but find Cassian is in Crosshairs arms." Hunter, look." I whisper
He turns to look at Crosshairs and I watch shock cross his face.
" Well, that's unexpected." He says
Crosshairs is......humming to Cassian.Hunter chuckles and moves up the hill, reaching the top he comes to a stop at the sight of my ship .
" That's the......."
I smile at his shock" Yes, that's the Phoenix Reaper. The only VCX that is bigger than the Millennium Falcon. She's equipped with 10 crew rooms, 1 captains room , there's only a large communal shower with 4 toilets , a galley, and a mess hall, fully stocked infirmary including a bacta tank , and a 2-1b medical droid, and a surgical pod, don't ask..... engine room , airlocks on each side, four in total , 6 escape pods that can hold up to 4 people each.
Weapons locker, and hyperdrive room , it can have a secondary ship dock into it in the cargo hold. The Maurader is small enough . Now the weapons , four gun torrents , one on each side , ventral , dorsal , port and starboard. I also have modified AG-2G quad laser cannons. This are my heavy hitters one at the fore and one at the aft. " I turn to look at them all and Wrecker has tears running down his face.
" Uh .... Wrecker you .. alright?"
He sniffs and says" It's so beautiful...." He wails
I chuckle at this and see the others either rubbing their eyes or sniffing.
Omega shakes her head at this and marches towards my ship. I slip from Hunters arms and follow behind her.I hit a button on my wrist band and the loading ramp lowers.
" why don't you all grab your things , while I fix some lunch?" I say.Tech looks at me and see my fatigued state. " You my dear are going to rest after these two have eaten. Then we will watch them while you rest." I just look at him in shock.
" Don't argue Zara. " says Cross
I halfheartedly glare at him . But stop when a yawn interrupts." Fine. Hand me my baby boy. Omega could you grab Rory ? I'm gonna go feed them while the others grab their things." Echo hands Rory to her and we make our way to my room. The captains quarters.
" So what do babies eat?" She asks. I smile and begin to unbutton my shirt. Taking my breast in hand I place it at Cassians mouth and he latches on immediately.
" breast milk for about six to eight months. Then I replace the milk with mashed food." He guzzles it down then After about twenty minutes and he's been burped he slowly falls asleep. I rub a finger down his cheek and kiss his forehead. I place him in a bassinet the Cereans were kind enough to give me. " Ok hand me Rory."
Omega passes her off. I place her at my other breast and have to coax her with a few drops of milk to her open mouth. After that she latches on and coos after every swallow. She's a little pig. She eats and eats and eats. Until milk comes out of her mouth.I burped her and walk the floor with her , humming a song . she dozes off in a milk drunken slumber. I chuckle and place her next to her brother. He opens his eyes and to my shock rolls to her and grabs her hand.
I smile at them. Then wave to Omega to follow me.
Once we leave my room , I head towards the galley and begin to make some lunch." You know they aren't going to be happy when they find you in here..." she says in a sing song voice. I shrug.
" I'm not scared of them. Their all a bunch of softies. Now can you chop up some fruits and veggies? I'm gonna make some soup and some bread. Then I promise I'll go to bed and rest." I see her contemplate my compromise and nod her head and begins to chop veggies for the soup.
I decided to make some pies for the fruit and quickly make up a crust. By the time the boys return the soup is ready , the bread is under the warming light , and the pies are on the cooling rack.
" Zara why aren't you resting?" I roll my eyes at Hunter and say
" Well I was hungry and I decided to make lunch. I need to eat if I'm going to keep breast feeding my babies." He blushes at the mention of breast feeding. I smirk at him and he see's the mischievous glint in my eyes. " Oh no." I chuckle as I pat him on the shoulder." Udesii Hunter. I promise I won't mention breastfeeding too often." His face flames brighter.
I laugh as I fill bowels with soup and cut up some bread for everyone.
" You are very mischievous for a Jedi." He mutters
I smile and shrug. " that's what Master Plo said. Especially when I would prank him."
He had just taken a sip of Jawa juice and choked. Beating his chest as he catches his breath. I place his food in front of him as the others come in." You pranked Master Plo ?!" He exclaims.
I shrug and admit. " And Masters Kenobi, Skywalker, even Master Yoda once." I place food in front of everyone.
The others look at me like I'd lost my mind.
" What?"
" You are ........." says Echo
" Crazy." Says Cross
" awesome!" Shouts WreckerI chuckle at them. And eat, not long after I finish I hear the babies start to cry. I sigh and say " There's berry pie in the cooling rack. One piece each. After I settle the babies down I'll show you were you all can sleep. Then we'll go over something's."
" Like what?" Asks Wrecker
I stop walking and say over my shoulder
" Shower schedule."
Their eyes widen at that I chuckle and go to tend to my little ones.*Mando'a translation*
Udesii- Calm down
