They hit a clearing in the woods and Joran sent a message through the comm link. They had nothing but the clothes on their backs. Everyone was breathing hard.

"Do you think he's all right?" AJ asked huffing from the run.

BJ panted. "I don't know. Did you see that explosion?"

A ship suddenly dropped into the clearing over them and the shuttle opened. A blond woman stood at the entrance. "Where is he?" She asked concerned.

"He said he was coming." BJ answered.

She nodded, "get on." She spoke into her wrist. "Proxy take off as soon as the door is closed."

They scrambled aboard with Juno instructing them with where to sit. She didn't bother with any formalities simply jumped into the pilot's seat and the craft began to rumble as it shot up towards the cold recesses of space.

A Metallic droid who had been steering from the right side of the ship let of the controls as she took them. It turned and surveyed the group. "Master," He said towards his own wrist. "It seems you've brought back more than you bargained for here." He cocked his head as if he was listening even though this was unnecessary. No one else heard the reply. Juno glanced over at him with a raised eyebrow and Proxy nodded at her.

BJ felt a thrill through his gut when he saw the black. This is what he'd been trying to do for years. He hoped that the man who'd helped save them survived. On the other side of the room, AJ and Connor sat having a muted conversation.

"It's him." Connor was saying.

AJ was nodding. This was new territory for them both. A vision that came to pass, and meeting the man they'd both literally been dreaming about for weeks. "He'll be back." Said AJ with a confidence that no one else was sharing.

"Why do you say that?" BJ said turning to look at them.

"We've seen it," said AJ nodding towards Connor. AJ at least felt it was time to start taking their visions seriously. Connor after a moment nodded in agreement.
Juno waited in orbit for a few moments when a small craft pulled out into space near them. Whether she heard the talk behind her she gave no indication. Her eyes were glued to the craft in front of them.

"Juno. I'm still here." It came out of her commlink, barely audible to the rest of them, but sigh of relief went around the small cockpit they were squeezed into.

Juno visibly relaxed. "Get on this ship right now, so we can get out of here."

"You got it." He sounded almost cheery. She'd take him to task for scaring her again later. 

She watched as the small ship docked with theirs and after a few moments Starkiller's familiar face appeared in the small crowded cockpit, but before he could say a word Juno was in his arms. He pulled her close in a tight grip.

There was an embarrassed silence from the rest as they watched the two embrace.

BJ studied Juno for a moment. Her blonde hair was shoulder length and pulled back into a pony tail. She wore a green flight jacket over a tan shirt, but it was open in the front due to her belly being slightly protruding. She's pregnant, he realized. Her blue eyes and pale skin were in stark contrast to Starkiller's dark hair, eyes and tanned skin.

"You're still alive?" That was Joran.

Suddenly pulled out of their moment, Starkiller released Juno and swiveled around to face the group of people he'd taken off of Kelusia. He recognized them all except for the man, Joran. Joran was the only one he hadn't seen in his visions on the strange world.

Juno laughed and moved away from him. "Let's go."

"You're good?" He said in a low voice to her as she moved back to the pilot's seat on the left and eased herself into it.

"I'm fine," she said evenly. "I'm pregnant, not sick. Stop worrying for five minutes."

Starkiller scratched his head and turned to the droid next to her. "Proxy?"

"No one is following." The droid stood up and came forward out of the pilot seat on the right. He was a free walking robot with metallic covering, but was unlike anything they had seen anywhere else. Even Em had never seen such a droid in her earlier years spent at the temple.

"Where are we going?" Em asked. They were all squeezed into the cockpit which was barely big enough to contain them all.

"Out there," BJ pointed out past the edge of the Empire's reach. He looked at Starkiller who smiled at him. "Out past the furthest stars." There was an excited edge to his voice when he said it. The ship turned around as Juno entered the trajectory. She smiled to herself as she heard the boy's response to the other woman.

And again, Starkiller wondered if he was their salvation or their doom.
