Phantom Affair - Flashback
When he woke up, he wasn't on board the station anymore, but he certainly wasn't in unfamiliar surroundings. Polipe, Booster Terrik's second in command, was looking down at him, giving him a sick sort of sympathetic smile and offering him a few arms up. At first, he couldn't figure out how he'd managed to get on Booster's ship, the Pulsar Skate.
And then he remembered.
Even with more arms than a whole squad of troopers, Polipe could only just contain a scared (and frankly, furious) teenaged Wedge Antilles as he tried to scramble his way to the pilot's chair, where Booster was sitting.
"MOM! DAD!"
If he just screamed loud enough, maybe they could hear him, even with the empty space between him and the space station he calls home.
