HI here's all the times Leia first thought was "Thank the stars" But only when Han Solo is around. Not a lot her first thought would be. Leia's POV. Enjoy and please review.
Disclaimer: I don't own Star Wars, regrettably.
Leia Organa was anxiously pacing the control room on Yavin 4. She could feel Jan's eyes following her before turning back to the diagram of Yavin and its four moons, showing the Death Star slowly coming into range. Already most of the Gold Squadron had been taken out and there wasn't many of the Red Squadron left either. Luke was still there though, thank the Force for that; she only met him earlier today but already trusted him, he was almost like the brother she never had.
Damn it! Red Three aka Biggs Darklighter was shot down too and the Death Star is within firing range. Come on rebels hurry up, if they don't get it on target the Rebel Alliance is going to vanish forever :just like Alderaan.
We are all staring straight at the projector screen, Luke still has three imperials on his tail, one of them Vader himself, watch out Luke they're nearly on target…
Wait what? He turned off his targeting device? Is he crazy? At least he sounds like he knows what he is doing and he is doingsomething instead of being here like sitting ducks. What happened! Has he been hit? Static crackles and we can hear him can say "I've lost Artoo!" Threepio is worried, hold on both of you, just a little longer.
Hang on! What just happened to Vader's wingman then the radio bursts into life and all I can hear is a cocky yell of "Yahoo!" Sounds familiar, hang on,it can't be .Thank the stars! Solo!
Vaders ship and his wingman collide, the wingman crashes while Vader spins out of control. Solos transmission continues "Your all clear kid! Now let's blow this thing and go home!"
Luke fires, the torpedoes must've made their mark and the remaining ships race away before the Death Star explodes in a rare moment of triumph for the rebels. The X-Wing, Y-Wing and battered freighter make it back to Yavin 4.
I quickly made my way down to the hangar (ran in other words) just in time to see Luke disembark from his X-Wing before being promptly wrapped in a bear hug. Han then sprints over and I stand back and watch the pair embrace and listen to their banter.
"I knew you'd come back! I just knew it!"
"Well, I wasn't gonna let you get all the credit and take all the
reward."
We are all laughing by now, whether of relief or joy I don't care.
I pushed between them and commented to Han "Hey!I knew there was more to you than money" And I was right thank the stars keep proving that Solo, I think we could use having someone like you around.
So how was it, love it, hate it please review. First Star Wars fic so be kind. May the force be with you. The Jedi Council demands that you press the review button. Jedi mind trick, wonderful invention.
Thanks for reading
