After the battle in the arena that killed many jedi and destroyed many droids, even the beasts that where attacking the jedi in the first place, boba gets up and immediately runs down the hallway towards the ladders, making his way down to the arena. I was in utter shock at what boba told me, but once he got up to run down the hallway, I also got up and followed him, he was faster than me so I couldn't catch up. Once I made my way to the arena, I look around to see the dead bodies of some jedi and blasted up droids. I then glance towards the direction of someone picking something up, that's when I saw boba holding his fathers helmet before slowly placing it on his forehead.

My brows frowned in a sad way as start to tear up, I slowly make my way to boba as tears start to run down my cheeks. I crouch down next to him as I soon could hear him sob against the helmet. I shut my eyes tight letting my tears run down before opening them again. "Boba..." I sob his name, placing a hand on his shoulder "im so sorry" I used my other hand to place it over my mouth and start to cry.

—-Boba's P.O.V—-

I was holding what was now left of my father tight on my hands and keeping it close to my forehead, sobbing, not really believing that he was now gone forever. I was destroyed and scarred for live to see my father being decapitaded just like that. I hate the jedi who did this, I hated him so much. Anger starts to flow through my veins, yearning for vengeance, I wanted to avenge my father, but as I could think deeper and let my anger flow even further, I hear Kira crying with her hand on my shoulder.

I slowly pull away from the helmet to look at kira, her eyes were starting to puff up, her face was red as her cheeks were traced with her tears. I put the helmet down on the ground and turn to kira and hug her, she quickly hugs me back and continues to cry. I gently rubbed her back with my thumb and spoke "its...its not your fault" I finally start to cry, letting more tears form and run down my cheeks.

We were like that for a couple of minutes until we decided to bury my dad's body, so we did, Kira helped me cary his headless body to the hole and then his...head, kira couldn't handle on seeing a head so I had to carry it to the body, I don't blame her, it was pretty disturbing to carry your father's head. Once done we used the digged up dirt and buried Jango fett leaving a mountain of dirt in the middle of the arena. I wipe some tears away with my forearm since my hands were covered in dirt. "Boba..." I hear Kira call me next to me so I stopped wiping my tears away and look over to her, seeing her holding my father bounty hunter helmet.

Kira extends her arms to give it to me, I exhaled sharply as I grabbed the helmet, giving it one last look before placing it on top of the mountain. "Can't believe he's gone" kira said in a shaky voice sounding as if she was about to cry again but she held it in. "I know.." I respond in a low tone before turning around and start to walk away.

As I attempt to hold a cry, I noticed boba turn around and walk away. I got confused and decided to follow "h-hey! Wait! Where are  you going?" I caught up only to hear this from him "I need time alone..." I stop "but...where are you going? What about me-" he cut me off "who cares where I go at this point! And what the kriff do you mean what about you?! I just lost my father today didn't you see?!?" He yells. I was not expecting this from him at all, he's never in my life yelled at me before. He's angry expression stares at me as I look back in a fearful way before seeing him look down at my saber "Those things...makes me fear of my own life" he looks at me again "I hate it" he growled.

At that point I knew wasn't being his usual self anymore, indicating me that I really should just go and leave him alone, thats when I ran away from him towards the exit of the arena. Not knowing where I was running to, stopped and actually tried to look around, the arena was feets away from me as there was literally nothing in front of me, sniffling I thought 'I wanna go back to my dad' I really missed my dad, its been 7 months since i've seen him and I wanted to go back home but I couldn't, I don't know how to fly a ship nor knew someone who is trustworthy enough to fly me there. "Kira"

—-Boba's P.O.V—-

After I yelled At Kira and seeing her cry when she ran away and out of the arena, I couldn't help but feel awful about what I just did, it wasn't her fault my father is gone, she's not the one to blame for how im feeling right now, she's has done nothing but been there with me. I close my eyes "Gar dumb utreekov!" (You dumb Idiot!) I said to myself as I open my eyes and look to the direction Kira ran off to. Knowing that I had to apologize for my sudden behavior to who is now the only person left in my life and the person who I...I...like...I've had a small crush on her ever since Vader and Jango met, at first I was being very difficult to her but when I started to get to know her more, that's when I started to have that small crush on her, and still do.

before I walk following her footprints but stop when a broken droid caught my eye 'might aswell grab the blaster in just in case' I thought and grabbed the blaster. I then start to walk again till I was out of the arena, I was looking and turning around in case if anyone was near or if Kira was hiding somewhere until I hear someone shout for help in the distance, I recognized that voice "Kira..." My eyes wide as I spoke in a low tone, I shake my head and start to run hold the blaster tight and ready to attack. Once I found kira, I saw the Jedi that murdered my father, a young female padawan and the jedi called Obi-wan kenobi. All three trying to get Kira who was with her saber activated and defending herself, but one vs three is never a win, I look down to the blaster remembering everything my father taught me about shooting and aimed at the jedi with purple saber first.

'If I shoot and miss, they'll know im here and possibly risk Kira getting taken away' I start to tremble with the blaster as my finger was ready to pull the trigger until a yell of pain surprised me, making me shoot and miss the jedi. They look towards my direction but I my eyes immediately land on Kira who had both of her hands over her left eye. "Kira!" I ran to her. dropping to my knees and keeping the blaster near me as I grabbed Kira's hand, trying to pull it away "let me see what happened" I tried to speak calmly. "It hurts! It hurts!" She yells. I frown my brows before grabbing the blaster and pointed towards the jedi and padawan "WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?!"

Kira winced in pain and sometimes grunt as I kept her close to me in a protective way. The padawan looks at both of the jedi before speaking "Its my fault" she rubs her own arm "I accidentally swung my saber upwards, slashing her cheek up to her brow" she looks down. Rage started building up inside me "YOU DID WHAT?!" I aim to the padawan, soon hearing kira call me, I look back at her. I didn't say anything as she slowly moves her shaky hands with her blood, revealing the slashed part. My heart stops as I stared at the cut with only sadness, knowing this was all my fault, none of this would've happened if I didn't yell at her back at the arena.

"Kira...i'm so sorry...this is all my fault..." I drop the blaster forgetting the presence of the jedi and padawan "this would've never happened if I-" I grunt and drop to the floor unconscious.

Seeing boba fall to the ground unconscious when the jedi used the back of his saber and hit the back of his head, I couldn't help but shout his name "BOBA!!" My hands were covered with blood, tears formed and fell on my cut as it continued to bleed and blood dripped down and fell to the ground. I shake the unconscious boy on the floor but it was no use. My tears caused the cut to sting a lot more, causing me to whine and grunt.

"We should get going" Obi-wan told the other jedi who agreed with him, soon feeling someone grab my arm trying to get me up but I resisted "YOU ARE NOT GOING TO TAKE ME AWAY!" I yelled. "Kid, its three vs one, either you let us do this the easy way or the hard way" the jedi spoke in a rather annoyed tone "lets just go" obi-wan said as I feel them grab a strong hold on me and begin to drag me away as I kicked and moved around "LET ME GO NOW!" They didn't bother to say a word.

I look over to see boba's unconscious body slowly fading in the distance as we were entering a ship "no! NO! BOBA!! HELP!!" The ship's hatch closed.
