"I assume you two will want to get some rest before we land on Nevarro." Boba says leading them inside his ship. He brings them up the ramp into a room lined with six seats. Near the end of the wall next to the ladder which to the pit was a small cot. "I'll let you know when we land." Boba nods, leaving the two and climbing the ladder up, Fennec follows him.

Lana drops her helmet on one of the chairs that lined the wall. Din sits down on the rough mattress, putting his helmet in his hands. Lana walks to sit beside him. She wraps an arm around him, resting her cheek on his shoulder. "I'm so sorry Din." She whispers, bringing tears to her eyes.

He lets out a shaky breath. "We are getting him back."

"We won't stop until we do." She rubs his arm. Lana scoots back on the mattress, leaning against the wall, she takes the single pillow on the cot and sets it in her lap. Din looks at her confused, she taps the pillow gently. He lays out along the mattress, putting his head into her lap. He stares up to the ceiling  letting out a deep breath.

"Do you want to take this off?" She whispers slightly touching the opening of his helmet. Din turns to look up the ladder, "Not now." He replies with his scratchy voice. She nods, letting her hand rest on his chest and the other on the top of his helmet. Lana puts her head against the wall, slowling closing her eyes as she falls asleep to the rythm of Din's breathing.

Boba walks down the ladder to find the sleeping two. He sees Lana leaning against the wall, with Din resting on her lap. He assumes they are deep in their slumber, but Din is wide awake. Boba sighs, Fennec comes to his side. "You can tell he cares deeply about her and the child." She whispers.

"As he should. The galaxy can be an awful place for some. Having that stability can sometimes keep you alive. Give you a reason to fight." Boba says back. "Wake them." Fennec begins walking toward them, until Din puts a hand up to stop her. "Let her rest. I'll get Dune." He says siting up.

Lana wakes, finding herself layed across the mattress with Din no longer with her. She sighs, sitting up from the bed. She looks to see Din and Cara sitting next to each other cleaning their blasters on the seats that lined the wall. "Marshal Dune?" She says groggy. Cara turns her head. "Look who's awake." She smiles. Din sets his blaster down beside him. He picks up the bunch of clothes sitting on one of the chairs across from him, bringing them to her. "Fennec had some extra if you want to change out of the armor."

"Thank you." She says accepting the clothes. Din takes a spot next to her on the bed. "Where to now?" Lana asks, looking down at the all black clothing. "We're getting Mayfeld."
