Jai looked over the Noghri, and then glanced questioningly at Mahk...who looked back at her expressionless.

Jai had manners, contrary to popular belief, and bowed slightly to the Noghri that had spoken to her.

"It is nothing, Sajikihm. Think nothing of it."

She looked to Logan as she stood back erect.

"...I would no sooner leave him alone than would Mahk."

Sajikihm nodded once, a sign of respect.

"Mahk caln Khim'bar is tireless in his work. He is to be honored."

Saying nothing more he turned and quickly spoke to the Noghri team. They began spreading around to create a perimeter. Mahk stepped up beside Jaina and looked at the Admiral, who was placing flowers at Keira's grave.

"He speaks very highly of you. You are not just a smuggler to him...you are more like his daughter"

Jaina's usually slouched frame visibly stiffenned. She looked over at Mahk, "He does?"

The little Noghri nodded, not moveing his eyes from Logan. Jai wasn't quite sure what to say to that. She had no idea Logan had held her in high esteem. In fact, in these days and times, she found it hard that anyone held her in high <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> anything<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->...

Jai was looking down in thought, her brow slightly furrowed, completely silent. She didn't get that way often...only when her old Jedi meditative ways crept back in and she became deep in thought.

Suddenly she felt Mahk tap her forearm. She blinked out of her meditative state and look at him. He motioned to Logan who was beginning to turn...

"I will love you always. You will always be in my heart"

Logan leaned down and kissed the top of the gravestone. Then he laid the flowers at the base of it. Standing up, he straghtened his uniform and walked to the gate of the cemetary.

He nodded to Mahk and put a hand on Jaina's shoulder.

"Come lets go talk"

He headed for a small cafe.

Jai followed obediantly.

The two made thier way to a small cafe a few blocks away...with Mahk not far behind. They sat at a table on the sidewalk and ordered thier respective drinks. Only after the drinks came, and the moment seemed right, did Jai break the silence...

"So...what shall we talk about, Logan?"

"Lets talk about you"

He smiled and looked over the landscape. The Cascardi Mountains in the background were beautiful. He remembered how much Keira loved them. He would take her in a shuttle to them, they would fly low and swoop around. She loved them.

"How is your family doing?"

Jai doubted Logan was listening, seeeing that far-off look in his eyes made her think so.

"Well...my baby sister Cairo is alright. Being a annoying Bormean, as always. My Mother...well, I couldn't care less. And my Dad is...well...", Jai couldn't help but smirk, "Dad is Dad."

Jai continued, "My twins are fine. Beau and Brenna...have you ever seen them? They're beautiful children. Beauregard is just like his father...and Brenna, well, she's more like her grandmother than anyone. Unfortunatly."

"My husband...well..I suppose he's alright."
Jai suddenly became very quiet, and idly stirred her Nubian Tea...
"I haven't seen him in a long time. He's a Jedi, you see...A Master, in fact. His training of his many padawan keeps him away. I haven't seen him since the twins were born."
She looked down and sighed, "They're five now."

Logan put a hand on hers.

"I don't have any children. Keira wanted some....but we never got around to it. I was always busy with The New Alliance. She prefered to stay here, on Almania where she was born. SHe was the most stubborn woman I ever knew..more so than you"

He smiled and laughed quietly.

"But I do miss her"

Jai and Logan just looked at each other for a moment...unspoken volumes passing between them.

Then, all of the sudden, a young boy ran up...from the looks of him, he was from the filling station..."Mrs. Darklighter...Mrs. Jai...Jai, your <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Millennium Jade Falcon<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> is fulled up and ready for you."

Jai had turned to him, "Thank you, Zeekan." She turned back to Logan, and the little boy seem dissapointed, and started to walk off. Jai noticed this out of the corner of her eye and called him back, "Zeekan, wait...come back here for a second, pal."

The little boy plopped back over sadly, "Yes, Mrs. Jai?"

She smiled and pulled him to her, whispering something in his ear about extra credits later for him if he'd watch over her ship for her.

The boy brighten immedatly and kissed her cheek, "Whoopee! Thanks Jaya! Uh..I mean...Mrs. Jai. Bye!"

With that, the little boy ran off, and Jai turned back to Logan with a smirk..."I'm in no hurry to get back to Delph, Zeekan will keep a lookout on my ship for awhile."

"Im glad you can stay"

He smiled again.

"So is Mahk" he said, jerking a thumb back at the silent and stony-faced guard.

"I hear Delph is a beautiful world. Owen has told me many things about it"

His smile widened.
