Wedding of the Century

Mind Tricks

"Han! HAN!!!"

Han Solo jerked himself out of a deep sleep. He had been having a nice, relaxing dream about something nice and relaxing when he heard Luke Skywalker's voice ringing in his ear. "Five more minutes..." he mumbled, his eyelids falling. "Whoa!" He looked forward and saw endless space before him. He was sitting in the pilot's seat of the Millennium Falcon with Chewie beside him. And he had been sleeping! Scandalous!!! "Wha...what's going...on?" he asked blearily.

"You started snoring and we realised you had been asleep for about ten minutes. We wondered why Chewie had to dodge that asteroid rather than you. Han, you really gotta get some proper sleep. Like, in a bunk." Luke told him. Han looked around the cockpit. Leia, Luke and Chewbacca were staring at him. "You've been working yourself too hard for the past few days. So you're getting married in a while..."

"A week", Han reminded him.

"Okay, a week... but you've got to stop worrying! Everything will be fine! Look, go to bed and Chewie and me'll take the controls for a while."

"No, I'm fine. Really I am."

Luke seemed doubtful. "You sure?"

But Han was insistent. "Yes, now go, sit down and quit bothering me!"

"But..."

"SIT!"

Luke turned around. "Well, if you insist," he muttered on his way back to the big leather recliner.

"I do!" Han cried exasperatedly.

Leia looked up. "You better not say that to me in that tone of voice on the day of our wedding, buddy!" she said warningly.

"No, of course not, sweetheart," Han said meekly.

Leia glared at him for a moment. Then her expression softened and she sat back, fiddling with her ribbons and grinning. Luke glanced at her and knew, without having to probe her mind, that she was planning something. He really didn't want to know what.

He rolled his eyes and looked back at his soon-to-be brother-in-law. Han's face was pale and his eyes were bloodshot and half-closed. He had been piloting the Falcon for almost two standard days straight. They were heading to some distant planet Luke had never heard of -Togoria? - to see some long-lost friends of Hans called 'Muuurgh' and 'Mrrov'. He hadn't seen them for nearly twenty standard years and wanted to deliver their wedding invitation in person. They had meant to go earlier, but what with all the preparations, they just hadn't had time.

Han had tried to describe the Togorians but hadn't got much further than 'big cat-things'. Luke was starting to think he was having hallucinations and was only imagining he had had these friends, but he was on the ship now and there was no way of going back.

"Um... Han, I was thinking of going to bed, but...er...do you want to go instead, and I'll maybe...uh...kind of... take the controls for a while? You really do need a sleep." Luke braced himself for Han's rebuke.

"Man, have you no trust in me? Don't you think I can survive a little while longer? I'm not letting some green fingers take control of my ship while I'm asleep! Just go to bed and let me get on with my life! NOW!"

Luke gasped. "I am not a green fingers!" he cried, making to storm off to his bunk when he remembered he was theJedi Dude. "Okay, calm..." he whispered. He closed his eyes, breathed deeply, and tried using an old Jedi mind trick Obi-Wan had taught him to make Han obey him and get some rest. He really was pretty worried about Han. He hasn't even had his stag party yet, he thought, grinning slightly. His concentration wavered for a moment and the connection between their minds broke before he could carry out his intention. Han's eyes flickered-he knew what had just happened. Luke spun around, saying "Uh, I think I'll go to bed now," before sprinting down the corridor to his bunk-room.

"QUIT USING THAT HOKEY RELIGION ON ME, BOY!!! JUST 'COS YOU'RE A JEDI MASTER DOESN'T MEAN..."

Han can be so tetchy sometimes, Luke thought as the floor vibrated, glad he had got away in time.
