My arms fell to my side and I looked up at the man that was walking towards me. I reached a hand up to my throbbing head and winced in pain as I looked down at the metal object that hit me.

It was round and had a chain coming from it. Next to it was the object that I was glad didn't hit me. It was a huge metal spike. I scooted away from it and then looked back up at the menacing man.

"Now tell me Senator Organa. Where is our friend Lando?"

"I don't know." I replied.

"Oh I think that you do know."

"I don't know!!" I cried and the shield disappeared from around me. I sat there for a minute and then quickly got up, running towards the door. Then I felt a huge hand on my head and my hair tugging at my scalp. I hollered out in pain and then fell back into his arms. He tightened his grip around me and pulled me too close to his body. The only person who should ever hold me this tight is Han.

Help me.

Han's POV

"Lando, we gotta go back."

"Why?"

"I left my blaster!" I said, pointing down at my empty blaster cartridge.

"Fine. But I'm staying in the ship."

"Fine." I responded and turned the ship around.

Leia's POV

He reached down to his belt and pulled out a sharp long knife.

Oh goddess.

He placed it at my neck, my skin trembled at its touch.

"Don't be scared." He whispered in my ear. How can I NOT be scared?!? "Now tell me. Where did Lando go?"

I can't say I don't know! He'll kill me for sure! I have to lie. I have to make it believable! I'll say Tatooine! Yes. Tatooine. It's remote. He'll hide there. "Tatooine." I said. "He went to Tatooine."

"Thank You. I knew that you would understand Senator. Now that I know where our friend Lando is, I have no other use for you."

"What??" I asked in shock.

"Now…you shall die." He growled and I screamed at the top of my lungs as I broke away from his grasp and ran towards the door. It was locked! I banged on the door and the man got closer to me. "Don't run away." He growled and I ran full force towards him, trying to bash into him to knock him on the ground. That didn't work, and he wrapped his arms around me, pushing my back to his chest. I tried to break free, but he just tightened his grip. I winced in pain and then all of a sudden I heard the door open. I turned my head and standing there, mouth agape was my knight in shining armor.

Well, actually he was wearing fighter pants, a black vest, and a white shirt, but he was still my Han.

"HAN!" I screamed, and the man put his knife to my throat.

"Hey buddy, back off."

"No."

"BACK. OFF."

"Why?"

Han started to grin. "'Cause I know the exact location of your buddy Lando Calrissian. He's sitting outside in the Falcon right now."

"Liar." He said through gritted teeth.

"If I'm such a liar…see for yourself."

"NO."

Han had had enough. He was charging the guy. He kicked his legs out from underneath him, causing him to fall to the ground. I fell out of his arms and kicked him in the groin and then ran towards Han, falling into his waiting arms. I wrapped my arms tightly around his neck and started to cry tears of joy into him.

"Han…"

"Leia." He smiled.

"Han finish him."

"Sure thing princess." He grinned, and then grabbed my hand and ran towards the work bench on the other side of the room. He grabbed his blaster and then pointed it at the man. Then, he lowered his weapon and shook his head. "I can't do it."

"Why not??"

"We have to take him back to the rebel alliance. He and Lando. I can't kill him."

"Fine." I moaned and then Han got some rope and tied it around the man, dragging him towards the Falcon.

After throwing him and Lando (who protested the whole time) into the 'brig' we made our way back to the cockpit where we joined Chewie. Chewie decided that he would pilot the ship by himself, and Han grabbed my hand and led me towards the galley. We both got cups of Caff and then sat on the couch, my head on his shoulder.

After a while, I put down my cup and then wrapped my arms around his torso. "Thank god you came back. I would have died."

"Aw sweetheart, you know I felt that you were in trouble."

"You don't have the force!"

"Naw, but I have a Leia protection scanner built into my brain."

"I love you." I said, and Han kissed the top of my head and then pulled back, putting his finger on his lips and then staring strangely at it.

"What?"

"You're bleeding!"

"Huh?" I asked and then reached up to the top of my head and touched it.

"Oh. It must have been when that man pulled me by my hair."

"DAMN IT!" Han screamed and then stood up.

"What's wrong?"

He sighed and then started to pace around while scratching his head. "Leia….You know why I wanted you to have bodyguards? You know why I was so scared about what happened to you while you were Jabba's Slave? You know why I risk my life to save you every time?"

"Why?" I asked.

"Because…I love you, and you have made so many sacrifices and gone through so much in your life that I think that I should risk my life to protect you. I love you, Leia. I care about you so much." He bent down, pulling out a box. "Will you marry me?"
