It was a beautiful day on Endor, the sun was shining, and the forest critters were singing with delight.
Delight that the war was over,
Delight that the galaxy was free,
Delight that the Empire had been defeated.
The Rebels decided to enjoy their victory with a small vacation, just a week on Endor. But a week to have fun. A week to finally enjoy themselves.
Han and Leia decided they wanted to go for a much needed swim, their Ewok friend Wickit having decided to show them a hidden lake a little ways into the forest.
That, of course, meant dragging Luke along.
Han, dressed in rebel swimming boxers, (surprisingly they were black, the only non-white and non-logoed piece of clothing in their collection) with a towel draped over his back, walked side by side with Leia, dressed in a yellow one-piece swimsuit. Luke, having been dragged on against his will, was dressed in a beige tunic, (It was very hot and that was the only cool thing the rebels currently had) was being dragged by his mechanical hand by Han.
Han still didn't know, and Luke aimed to keep it that way.
"Han," Luke pleaded nervously, "Can you let go of my hand now?" He was beginning to pull the glove off. If he pulled it off entirely Han would know, and Leia would see that Luke had lied to her about the blaster wound. Leia glanced back at Luke, opening her mouth to say something. A glare from Luke caused her to snap it shut. Luke wished she didn't know either.
"Sure kid, but don't you go running off." Han said absent-mindedly. "I've got fun planned for you guys." He let go of Luke's hand.
Luke, who was walking behind Han, cradled it to his chest as he carefully pulled the glove back.
Han suddenly grinned,(he could see the lake) breaking hands with Leia.
"Last one there is a rotten sith!" He howled. Luke cringed at the statement, but no one noticed, since they had broke off into sprints.
Han was a step away from being winner when an invisible force held him back. He couldn't move. Leia, who passed just an inch ahead of him, froze too.
Luke, with a large, stupid grin plastered to his face, trotted past them.
"Well since Leia is infront of Han, I guess Han is the rotten s-sith lord." He announced with too much joy in his voice. Luke refused to let the waver in his voice ruin his cover.
Han, finding he could move again, glared at Luke.
"Cheater." Luke merely shrugged.
But Han grinned, jumping into the lake with a large splash.
"You never said you had to be in the water." Luke protested as Leia hurled herself in after Han. Now the waver in his voice was clear, but Han payed no mind.
"Hey, I'm a scoundrel. We cheat." Han said grinning as he and Leia started to splash each other. Luke stepped away from the water to a safe distance, hoping no one would notice.
"Hey come on kid! Its fun! And really cool!" Han yelled, beckoning with his hand to Luke.
Luke shook his head.
"No thanks, I didn't bring my swimsuit."
"Meh! Just come in with your clothes. It's too hot just to be standing there." Han argued.
Luke trembled slightly.
He was trapped.
