She Hates Me
By Sapadu
A/N: I realize that I should be working on my other fics, but this happened.
And I couldn't stop myself.
The song belongs to 'Puddle of Mud' and their respective owners. Luke to George Lucas and Lumiya, Shira Brie, or whatever the hell her name is to whoever created her.
Met a girl, thought she was grand
Fell in love found out first hand
Luke remembered the first time he'd seen her- a great pilot, proclaimed a hero by Leia, and savior of the Rogue Squadron.
Not to mention that Shira Brie was just an attractive woman, no matter how you looked at it.
Shira had been so forward... Almost immediately, they'd barely gotten off their respective missions before she was making passes at him.
Which had been... kind of hot...
Went well for a week or two
Then it all came unglued
Right up until Shira had turned out to be a spy... aside from that, they got along quite well, if it weren't for that one little detail that she was out to destroy the Rebels.
Since she had faked her own death, however, that had made it significantly easier for Luke to deal with the change of heart.
In a trap trip I can't grip
Never thought I'd be the one who'd slip
The strange thing had been that Luke had absolutely never seen it coming: Shira had been sweet and unassuming in her anger, forward, and assertive, perhaps, but not aggressive or cruel.
Then again, she'd been an excellent pilot and well versed in fighting tactics and firearms... with little or no training from THEM... where ELSE could she have gotten it from?
Then I started to realize
I was living one big lie
Then, he'd shot her down, only to be discredited by the Alliance and resigned for a time.
And then, how he'd discovered how Shira had been lying all the time to try to bring him down.
She fuckin' hates me
Trust
She fuckin' hates me
La la la la la
Then, after Shira had resurfaced in the Nagai Tof war as Lumiya and had set about destroying everyone... She'd gone after Leia first, and then used Han's friend against them.
Luke wondered... was that the supposed fury of a woman scorned which Hell knew naught of?
I tried too hard
and she tore my feelings like I had none
and ripped them away
How odd it had been that Lumiya had next engaged Mara in a battle, Luke mused, wondering if there was, perhaps some connection.
Shira was probably stewing in fury that her once opponent as an Imperial Agent was now married to her one-time lover.
She was queen for about an hour
After that shit got sour
Though... Luke looked down at his own hand, mechanical under the false flesh. Having this fake hand had driven him CRAZY for weeks until he got used to it.
But having half of your body replaced by mechanics and even biological functions altered so that your pain threshold was practically inhuman... Luke wondered if maybe, Lumiya, the Sith Lady, was more mentally unstable than evil.
Now it's over and I'm glad
'Cuz I'm a fool for all I said
Was she even really that evil? Maybe she was just insane? Of course, it might just also be jealousy, but Luke had never known for a powerful Jedi like a Sith to be swayed by such a petty emotion- anger, hatred, aggression... the Dark Side were they.
But whoever said that Envy couldn't be one of those emotions that fueled the Sith, either?
She fuckin' hates me
Trust
She fuckin' hates me
La la la la
One thing was for sure- Lumiya probably wouldn't leave Luke Skywalker in peace for very long.
I tried to hard
And she tore my feelings like I had none
And ripped them away
A/N: In short... Laugh, cry, but just leave a review.
