The primary landing bay aboard the Freedom bustled with activity. Jannah and Naluma hopped out of their craft and joined Tandolleau as he levitated Ensign Frensu to the hover stretcher. Artoo finished the shut-down procedures on Tandolleau's fighter while the maintenance crew swarmed the deck. 

When a squad of security forces arrived, the MP corporal said to Naluma, "We'll take over from here, ma'am."

Naluma shook her head and gave a tight smile. "Orders to guard the target until we deliver him to Zaxyn HQ."

"Our orders are to escort the target to seclusion." His squad formed up on either side of the stretcher.

The lead medtech said, "Well, neither of you will have a target if you don't let us take him to medbay. You're welcome to follow, but stay out of our way." The muscular petty officer pushed the hover stretcher through both the Jedi and the MPs toward the medbay.

❶ After they had reached the medbay, the medtech said, "Two people only. They will have to scrub."

Naluma nodded.  "Tandolleau, take first watch. Jannah, grab some chow and some rack time. Relieve Tandolleau in four hours."

They nodded their heads as Naluma turned. Jannah asked through mindspeech, Where are you headed?

Check on Luke.

Jannah said, Surprised he didn't meet us in the landing bay.

He's sleeping. Naluma scrunched her nose and clenched her teeth as she sensed his exhaustion through their Force-bond. Get going. Those four hours are going to speed by.

Yes, Jedi Fau.
