The ship landed just outside the moisture farm, right before lunch time. Even if it was a cloudy day, it was already hot, compared with the nice breeze and warm weather they had in Ajan Kloss.

Walking down the ramp, the kids just covered their eyes and looked back at their parents.

"It is hot," Alli said looking at them and running back inside the ship, to the cold breeze of it, making Luke and Ines laughed.

"You didn't complain when you were a baby," Luke told her.

"I don't like it," she said and she sat back on the floor, with her arms cross in front of her chest. "I will stay here."

"Okay," Ines said looking at Luke. "We will start to get the things out of the ship," she said as she adjust the baby in her arms.

"Yes, but then I need to go to Anchorhead to pick up some power converters."

"Can I go father?" Ben asked him.

"How about we get lunch and we all go," Ines told them making Ben and Padmé jump happy.

"I mean, we go. Alli decided to live in the ship for the next 2 and half weeks, so she stays," Luke said looking at his daughter, who didn't say anything.

"Let's go inside then," Ines said, making Luke's baby walker float behind her, while she walked behind Ben and Padmé.

Once they reach the patio inside the farm, she put the walker on the ground and put the baby in it.

"Now you stay here, while mama and dada are grabbing our stuff. R2 watch the baby for me."

R2 beeped right away.

"Mama are we going to stay in Papa's bedroom when we was a kid?" Padmé asked.

"Yes, just like the other time. But this time you have to share the same bedroom. It has two beds and we will put the crib of your brother there. I'm sorry but the hut is not that big for more bedrooms."

"It is okay mom," Ben said smiling.

"Yeah," Padmé nod and then look at her mother. "Alli will stay in the ship alone?"

"Do you think your twin sister will be able to stay alone?"

"No," the little girl laughed.

"Exactly."

"I will give her 5 minutes for her to be here with us," Ben laughed too.

"Now, behave okay while I will help your father," Ines told them, and walking upstairs to help Luke to put everything inside the hut.

Once they had all the clothes in the drawers, and make sure they had everything out of the ship, they stood at the top of the ramp.

"So, I think this is it," Ines said looking at Luke.

"Yes. So we better get inside," and Luke looked at his daughter who didn't move from the floor of the ship. "Well since you want to live here for the next weeks, so bye then. See you in 2 weeks, okay."

"Take care of yourself," Ines said trying not to laugh as they both walked down the ramp.

As they were about to entered the hut, they heard.

"Wait, don't leave me here. Wait for me."

Turning around, they saw Alli running towards them and grabbed Ines waist.

"Hey, I thought you hate it and didn't want to leave the ship?" she said looking at her daughter.

"I will give it a try," the young girl said making Luke laughed.
