Description
Massing near the Sullust System, those who would give their lives for liberty and justice prepare for a battle that will decide the fate of the galaxy, a battle so fierce the scars it will leave upon the Force itself will echo for generations...Aboard the Liberty, Quinn prepares for take off, possibly for the last time, she can't find her helmet... Something catches her eye however. Orchid? Orchid Shara, what in the world do you think you're doing!? The young Chiss had stolen a spare flightsuit and was carrying Quinn's own helmet. I want to fight too!! She stomped. I know you want to help, but you're just a child, look, that flightsuit is almost twice your size, now give me my helmet, I need it. Orchid gripped it tightly, trembling. But... I'm scared, I want to go with you, I have a very bad feeling, I want to protect you! Quinn took out her Lightsaber, and offered it to Orchid. Orchid, I want you to hold on to this... Keep it safe for me. Promise me Orchid, Promise me you'll stay on the Liberty and keep it safe. The young Chiss interrupted. Only if you promise you'll not die. Quinn tried to force a smile. I'll try my best, but you know I can't promise... Reluctantly Orchid let go of Quinn's helmet and snatched her Lightsaber, she clutched it tightly as she held back tears. Careful now, you don't want to accidentally ignite it! Joked Quinn, Orchid didn't respond to it though, finally Quinn wrapped her arms around the young child, she kissed her forehead before finally departing. Good bye Orchid, I love you.
-------
Quinn and Orchid Shara again, this time prior to the Battle Of Endor, the surrogate family prepare to fight not only for the Rebellion, but also to protect each other, each making a promise they are certain they cannot keep.

Ga'h, I wuv' my little Star Wars girls, I hate drawin' em' looking all sad, but feels are feels...
Da'ww look at Orchid in that flightsuit, it's WAY too big for her! Hnnngh... Chiss are so cute... ;w;
Finally get to show Quinn's braid bun hair thing. XD
Blargh, backgrounds are my bane, I tried...
Lando's just took off in the Falcon, as the fleet prepares for the Hyperspace jump to Endor, lots of other ships are prepped too, including my other OC Merek Zai, his ship is the Skipray Blastboat.
Ugh, this scanned quite badly, this was the best of about five scans, cuz' my scanner's kinda crap, need to save for a new one.
Anyway, I hope you like this, the characters and such, feel free to leave feedback!

I was just looking at this and I'd always assumed that this was the Home One since that's where the Falcon was...but now that I reread it I realized: this is the Liberty. The Liberty is the first ship that the Death Star nails with its super laser!
I'm suddenly very afraid for Orchid!

Ah, I see, I wanted to draw the Falcon flying around in the background, Lando's warming her up whilst the Alliance fleet finishes it's final preperations for the attack.
Indeed... Thankfully she isn't very good at staying put, and for once I think Quinn'll be glad.

Heh, yeah no kidding!
I can just imagine the heart attack she must have had when she saw the Liberty go up during the fighting!

Even departed from the Liberty, she still came exceptionally close...
The X-Wing on the right - barely strafing the beam - is being piloted by Orchid, she escaped it by a nanosecond!
Oh aye, for a minute afterwards Quinn was in a state of sheer panic, but that was nothing compared to the relief she felt when she sensed Orchid's relative safety, I'm pretty sure their reunion after the battle is a tearful one, Quinn doesn't cry often, but I think this is one of those rare times where she's overwhelmed by relief.

Holy heck...that is a close shave! ...and I've been playing a lot of flight sims in my time so I know exactly what THAT feels like!
...you do realize that you're making me want to write more with this (with your permission) ...in fact I think I might just do an entire Endor sequence with this if you don't mind?
Seriously you know how to create inspiring and terrifying moments!

Thank you, they have a fair few moments like this, I actually commissioned one recently by an amazing artist (featured in my latest journal), set before the Battle of Hoth...

Omg you put so much detail into this one, that bg must've taken forever! Oh no Orchid is so cute... What's the relationship between these two? Like a sister kind of thing?

Ah, thank you! Yeah, it really did, I don't do backgrounds very well, so I really had to push myself...
I'm glad you like her, she's kinda like a mascot for my Star Wars OCs... Orchid was actually an abandoned child that Quinn found living on the street, so she took her in and looks after her like a daughter, though she doesn't have a child of her own Quinn has really strong maternal instincts, and after the events of the original Star Wars trilogy officially adopts Orchid. I've kind of got their whole lives figured out, from birth to death (which sometimes saddens me cuz' I know their story ends. ), a lot of their story is told in the Star Wars OC folder in my gallery, and i'm working on more art for them at the moment! ^_^
