"Admiral Onasi! There's a shuttle, Imperial in orgin but giving off a JEDI signal...it's an older code, but not more that two months old....Computer records it as Jedi Knight Dylan Klay's personal transponder signal."
(on board the battered shuttle)
He hung there in the the crash webbing, half lifeless as his body automatically placed him in a healing trance. Life support was failing, as was the artifical gravity. Debris and other various objects floated around about him, giving the interior a look of death and destruction.

- "Retrieve the ship right away" - Admiral Onasi said and the Capital ship pulled the battered fighter by means of it's tractor beam. Once the ship was secure they opened the cockpit revealing Dylan's body.
- "Take him into a kolto tank, heal him and keep us posted" - a lieutenant said and they took Dylan to the medical bay where they inserted him into a kolto tank to heal him.

There are some ties that are weak, they break under the slightest pressure...and then there are those that the lightyears can't strip away. A master/apprentice relationship, if done right, is as such. From eons away, he felt his Master....from the Force, he saw and experianced her plight....from his tank, he bellowed, angry at the world.
His Master was in trouble and he was sitting here resting. His hand reached for the manual release, heart threating to beat out of his chest. The tank wouldn't open fast enough and he began to pound on the plexiglass. If he could holler above the klaxons....
That's when he felt the soothing presance of another Master he held the deepest respect for....

Lin-Kai looked at Dylan as he floated in the kolto tank. His desperation could be felt by her and she put her hand on the glass.
- "Dylan, I know you can hear me. Please don't fight, I know you want to rescue Mill as much as I want to rescue Serka, but right now I am concerned about your health. I need you to heal as fast as you can, we need you with us" - Lin-Kai said looking at the battered body of Dylan.
- "We've lost so many good jedi, but I know there are others ready to help Mill. An old friend who I thought had retired from the order is with her as we speak" - Lin-Kai said.

He couldn't speak physically and he fought the rising panic as the Kolto started to fill the tank again. They were putting him back! He didn't want to, but Master Kai's words touched him. He knew she was thinking with a more level head than he was.
I need to be there, Master Kai. I've been away far too long; I must rescue Mill. She's like my mother, the only parent I've ever known. I don't know if I can take much more suffering and loosing of the ones I care about....
Unconciously, his mind went to the woman he'd fallen for while fighting in the Unknown Regions. Despite all his attempts to stay away and not develop feelings, they blossomed, indeed, flourished. He tried to bury the memory and the image before the wise Master caught it, but then blushed as he realized how futile it was. You couldn't let something like that slip with some one as acute as Master Lin-Kai. He knew better than that; always best to be honest with her...so he opened himself up again, his dark brown eyes intense despite the blurring effect of the Kolto through the glass.
He let her see the joy and rapture he felt as he held his woman and the searing pain he felt as she was ripped apart by the Yuuzhan Vong and their Seren allies...though he was careful to conceal the blackness eating at his heart and his actions against them as his love fell into the deep embrace of the Force.

Lin-Kai could feel the deep sea of emotions that the young Jedi was feeling and she saw all the images that Dylan poured into her mind as she could see it for herself. Lin turned and put her hand on the kolto tank.
- "I know how you feel. Serka might be dead, his presence in the force is gone and I can't seem to find him. I...but we must remain strong for them. I know Mill is already in the process of extraction, Master Elekiel who was an old member of the order is attempting the rescue. I ask you to please stay with me until you are recovered, nothing bad will happen to Mill. I give you my word" - Lin-Kai said and gave him a reassuring smile.

Words, promises...simple things; something you say; but to Dylan Michael Klay, they meant everything, especially coming from Master Lin. He hoped he concealed his resignation and frustration, but knew that Master Lin was going through the same thing.
Duty and Honour...Obligation he thought, nodding respectfully to the wise Master and relaxed his body into a deep healing trance. Duty, honour....obligation........

Lin-Kai looked at Dylan with the most tender smile she could muster at the moment and saw the young Jedi go deep in trance. She then looked back at the door that swooped open. A young man entered the medical bay with his formal attire and saluted Lin.
- "Ma'am, it is the request of Admiral Onasi that you please have dinner with him" - the young man said.
- "I will, I just need to watch over Jedi Dylan for a while" - Lin said.
- "Yes ma'am, take your time" - the young man said and turned to leave.

Klay embraced the deep trance, allowing himself to go weightless and let the healing fluids rush into him. Soon, he would be out, practicing and preparing....soon.

Lin-Kai looked at the tank once more and put her hand on it.
- "Be strong" - she said and with a faint smile she walked out of sick bay. She then entered a room where a dinning table was and Carth stood beside it.
- "Glad you took my invitation Lin" - Carth said with a smile - "How's your Jedi doing?" - he said as he helped Lin to sit down.
- "He's going to be ok" - Lin-Kai said as she sat down and then Carth sat at the other chair.
- "Well you'll be happy to know that we've made contact with Ilenia Prime and they have agreed to give us shelter, they have only been asking about your father" - Carth said.
- "My father will come after he deals with Morbiƶus, I haven't heard from him since he left and boarded Morbiƶus' ship and left for Hyperspace" - Lin-Kai said.
The two began catching up as they had not seen each other in a while.

Serka'sship reached where the Star forge once was."Where is it?" he asked. "It was destroyed." He began to cry, with no use of the force he had no way of telling if Lin-Kai was alive. He did his best to send her amessage. "If you can hear me Lin-Kai, I am at the star forge. If you are alive, Could you come to pick me up, Myship is running out of fuel."

Lin suddenly heard a faint voice, it sounded much like....Serka! She stood up in a hurry.
- "Carth I need a ship now. I have to get back to the star forge, Serka is there" - Lin said.
- "But we can turn around" - Carth said.
- "No, you already are half way there, I'll get to him in a ship" - Lin said.
- "Take the Ebon Hawk it's in the hangar" - Carth said and Lin thanked him and went to the hangar. She went inside the Ebon Hawk and flew away with it back to the forge.
A few hours later she went out of hyperspace and found Serka's ship there. She docked the ship with the Ebon Hawk and opened the hatch. As soon as she saw him she lept into his arms with tears in her eyes.
- "I though I had lost you" - Lin said through sobs and cries.

"They cut my force with ysalamiri injections." Serka ran his hands through her hair. "Its been too long." He removed the helmet. He kissed her forehead and then her lips. "I have waited so long to see you." Tears began to fall from his eyes. "I left Mill behind, we have to get these ysalamiri cells out of my body and...then go...back." Serka said before collapsing to the floor, motionless.

Klay wipped the excess fluid off of him with a towel, as lines of kolto traced his scared, muscular body. He felt sticky and salty, in need of a good sonic shower; but at least the majority of his wounds were healed.
Looking "skyward", his mind probed for Master Kai and found nothing.
"Admiral Onassi, this is Dylan Klay," he called into the comm link.
"Onassi. Good to hear you awake, Jedi Klay."
"Thank you, sir. Where's Master Kai?" In a few moments, he'd been updated. Though he wished she would've woken him, he understood her need to do this alone. "Very well, I'll be the Jedi representative till Serka and Master Kai return."

Lin-Kai moved Serka's body inside the sick bay and ran to the flight controls to dock once more with the Republic ship. Carth welcomed them personally as he waited in the hangar and Serka was taken to the kolto tanks. Lin-Kai passed her time in the infirmary using the force to heal Serka from anything he was suffering from. A medic came to Lin and put his hand on her shoulder.
- "Luckyly the Ysalamari cells have lost their power so he will regain his force powers in no time. The jedi can heal faster so he will be able to use the force to effectively heal himself" - the medic said.
- "Thank you doctor" - Lin said as she continued to focus her power to heal serka.
