The Dagger shook rattled whined and quaked as it passed through the great barrier at light speed Jester wasn't sure if the Dagger would make it. Then all at once everything except light speed flight stopped. "Navigation plot a course to the nearest space station. I must find medical attention lest she dies." Jester said ad he turned on the auto pilot and returned to her bed side.
"Did we make it through the barrier?" Carley asked with haggard breath obviously short on breath.
"Don't strain yourself my love we should reach a space station in little more than an hour. Rest until then. You must save your strength lest you die." Jester said as she slowly closed her eyes.
She knew she was going to die and she didn't want Jester to go and get wreckless. That would be the death of him. Slowly she opened her eyes and stared into jesters eyes she spoke to him. "Love you must make me an oath on your life one you can never break under any circumstances. I really mean it and you have to keep this oath lest we don't meet in the next life." She pleaded.
"I would give anything you ask of me my love. What kind of oath are you asking for?" Jester asked innocently.
"I would have you swear that you don't go after Vengance. I wish you to live and prosper in this new galaxy. Help them if the aliens come to this galaxy. This is the oath I ask of you my love." She asked pleading with him.
"I freely give you my oath on my bloodline and should I break it I shall spend the next life alone." He swore his oath bowed his head to hers and kissed her forehead.
Before he could move she whispered. "I give you all I have to give of all that I am." An instant later he felt a stunning burst of power and she passed instantly. Jester slowly stood up watching as her body slowly glowed and gently disappeared. Returning to the captain's seat at the helm of the Dagger. After changing the setting on the nav computer. He set the computer to looking for the galaxy holonet to retrieve maps and data on the galaxy news both public and political.
It would be hours before the computer would have anything worth looking at. Jester needed to shut down even his living metal side needed rest.
"Buz-z-z-z." The Dagger just dropped out of light speed.
Jester opened his eyes to see the planet took most of the front window."computer what's our location? Why was I not awakened before now?" These 2 questions were the only ones he wanted to think about right now.
"The planet before you is Coruscant capitol planet of the new Republic. Your body needed the rest I know this because you programmed the well being of all living creatures in to my data banks Lord jester." The computer spoke in a robotic voice.
"Unidentified vessel this is Coruscant security military forces. Identify yourself or be blown out of space. You have 10 seconds to comply."
