Sister
Uneasiness was a feeling that Leia Organa felt she had learned to mask early in life. When Imperial forces boarded the Tantive IV and searched for the Death Star plans, she faced down the infamous Lord Vader like a bratty, annoyed Senator. When the cruel Governor Tarkin towered over her, holding her face like some plaything, she proceeded to insult his courage even as her own was wavering. And in that dreadful moment, when her home planet had been destroyed along with her father, Leia steeled herself and refused to react in front of Tarkin or Vader. Not even in her cell did she allow herself to emote. And not when she got rescued onto the Falcon or on Yavin IV. Only when she had gotten plastered at the victory party after the Medal Ceremony did she apparently start to weep when Winter had gotten her alone.
'Apparently' because she can't for the life of her remember that party.
Today, however, she felt uneasy, and Leia knew she looked it too. It had been an hour since she and Luke had landed at the abandoned Rebel Massassi base on Yavin IV and he hadn't checked in once! Her brother had come to her a week prior and asked for permission to visit the area in hopes of finding…well, what, exactly he couldn't say. Something relating to the Jedi. And so they were here, along with a compliment of 50 New Republic troops that Leia had commandeered for this mini-expedition.
Yet, despite the compliment of troops, Leia couldn't help but to pace the halls of the ancient temple corridors out of this feeling that she couldn't bury. Perhaps it was being in the last place that she had been with her father, perhaps it was the fact that none of them were supposed to be here. Hell, perhaps it was being away from Han. These thoughts entered the Princess' mind but were struck down quickly. No…what really was making Leia uneasy was Luke.
It had been over a year since the Battle of Endor and the realisation that they were siblings. Despite this, Luke had been more distant than ever. At first Leia thought it was because of hi — their father's death but recently she suspected that it had to do with restarting the Jedi Order. That kind of responsibility would crush so many, and Luke was just one man. Perhaps if he'd just talk to her-
BAMM
The sound of exploding rock shook the area and her troops ran towards its source to investigate, which seemed to be a level below her. But Leia already knew what the cause was. Her comm beeped.
She answered it.
"You sense it too?" asked her brother.
"Yes" Leia says, having to raise her voice above the sound of increasing blasterfire.
"Imperials" they said together.
"I'm heading back, stay out of sight" and before she could respond, Luke cut the transmission. 'He's so curt now' she thought sadly.
She would not stay put, however, not even for family. Leia unholstered her Defender pistol and readied it for lethal fire exchange. This princess didn't stay put, especially when her men were in danger.
'After all,' she thought 'someone has to save their skins.'
And with that thought, she rushed off into battle, uneasiness gone from her heart.
