I handed Chas the piece of datachip. "Here's the coordinates, plus some of the data on how you can contact me, and things like that." Then I turned and started up the ladder to my starfighter.

"Tal, wait!"

I turned and looked at her.

"Be safe," she whispered.

I bowed my head in her direction, then climbed up the ladder.

Sitting down, I reached for the comm unit. "Bridge, this is V-wing Starfighter Tee-En-Four-Three, requesting bay doors to be opened."

"Request granted, Tee-En-Four-Three. And good luck, Tal'ika."

"Thanks." I activated the repulsors, then headed out of the blast doors. Once outside, I activated the main drive. Getting clear of the ship, I put in the coordinates for Couruscant, and activated the Hyperdrive. Within seconds, I was blasting through kilometers of space. Headed to help my brothers.

In the Clone Wars.
