Jedi Wars I: Leia's Training
Setting: Immediately after episode six – New Rebel Base on Yavin Four
The sky was dark. A thick blanket of clouds was hiding the moon. All that
illuminated the air was the gentle radiance of Leia's green lightsaber. Luke had passed
his saber down to her and had inherited a new one of his own. It was somewhat the same
only it was the color purple. It was said that it was once the lightsaber of Ki-Adi-
Mundi, a former member of the Jedi Council. Leia's lightsaber spiraled back and forth.
The humm of her saber was beginning to drive Luke crazy. He had wanted to begin her jedi
training as soon as possible. Little did he know Leia was more anxious to begin then he
was. They had been up for several hours every night this week and Luke was beginning to
get impatient.
"Are you just about finished?" Luke interrogated. "Keep in mind that I have a
meeting with the admiral tonight."
Leia let out a sigh. "I'll be done in a moment. Let me just try this move one
more time. I want to get it down. Anyway, I have to get in too. Han's back and he
wants to talk to me about something."
Leia peered over at him and gave him a devilish wink.
Luke was now furious. He had told her time and time again that just because she
has a gift as strong as the force, does not mean she can go around reading other people's
minds. She especially can't do it if she is just doing it for fun. Luke couldn't take
it anymore. He sat down and reached out to the force to calm himself down. He's had his
fair share of stress for the night. He stood up and walked into the base.
Leia felt bad. She was just trying to have a little fun. Maybe if she just
stayed out of his way for awhile, he might be okay. She depowered her lightsaber and
followed Luke into the base.
As Leia stepped in front of the doorway which leads into her bedroom, she felt a
rush of happiness come over her. With Luke being so mad at her she had completely forgot
about Han. Her mood had changed and there was no more depreesion. Only the happiness and
love of being with her boyfriend. She opened her door and casted her eyes upon her bed.
Han was lying there with a bouquet of flowers.
"I picked them from a holy garden on the planet Delrakkin," Han had stated.
Mesmerized by the beautiful colors, Leia finally spoke. "They…they…they're
beautiful."
"I know," Han said thoughtfully. "I was thinkin` about you the whole time.
Chewie finally convinced me to come home."
With a tear in her eye, Leia ran over and hugged him. She never had anyone in
her life that had cared for her the way Han does. He had been gone for awhile
investigating some disturbances on the planet Delrakkin. It was rumored that surviving
groups of stormtroopers had gathered together and were tormenting local townspeople. Han
and Chewie were sent there on the Falcon a week ago.
Leia was beginning to get curious. "So…what happened?"
"Well," Han began, "when we got there everything seemed fine. We didn't see a
single stormtrooper. We stayed in the Falcon and within a few hours we saw our first
stormtrooper. He was rather odd though. Unlike the stormtroopers you remember, this one
was robbing a local store. Chewie and I guessed that the stormtroopers were at a
desperate stage to stay alive. We hopped out of the Falcon and snuck up to the store. We
stood outside the door and as he walked out, I shot him with my blaster pistol. After
that, we didn't see another one."
"Well, I'm just glad you're back." Leia said lovingly.
All of a sudden, Leia's door swung open and there stood Luke. He had the face
that he had on when he found out Vader had been his father.
"I got to go!" Luke exclaimed.
For a second Leia just sat there with a confused expression on her face. Then,
without warning, she felt something. It was a weird tingling feeling, but instantly she
knew what it was. The force was opening up to her. She could feel a disturbance in it
though. She felt…evil.
Worried, she questioned, "What is it Luke? I feel it too."
"I'm not quite sure, but it's the feeling I had with Vader. I have to go and
find out what it is. I sense it's nearby."
"I'm coming with you." Leia blurted out.
"No! It is too dangerous. You have not completed your jedi training."
"Luke, it's the only way I can learn more. Take me with you and I promise I
won't fail you. You have to trust me."
Luke stood still. Leia could tell he wanted to leave yet he was considering what
she had just said.
"You can go…if you stay by my side."
Luke was not too happy about his decision, but he understood what she was saying.
He knew that it was going to be a very dangerous mission. He turned around and headed
for the main doors. Leia kissed Han on the cheek and ran towards the door. Before she
left, she turned around and grabbed her lightsaber. She too knew this was going to be a
dangerous mission.
