Luke stood with Anakin and Leia Skywalker in the middle of the desert. Anakin sat meditating in the sand.
"I can't seem to stay away from this place." Luke told Leia.
"My siblings and I sometimes come here and work on our aunt and uncle's moisture farm. Father says that it will help us appreciate what we have even more." Leia said, a vague smile on her face.
"Did you enjoy it?" Luke asked. He knew that he hadn't.
Leia shrugged.
"I was never more thankful to have plenty of water to drink and shower or bathe in. So I guess Father was right." Leia answered.
Finally Anakin stood.
"I know how to open the portal." He announced. "Are you two ready to go?"
Leia nodded.
Luke felt the Force swell and soon something appeared in front of them.
Luke swallowed.
"Shield your presences well before you step through." Anakin ordered.
Luke carefully dimmed his presence before stepping through what he hoped was a portal.

Elsewhere . . .
Luke's head came up. There was a disturbance in the Force. He reached out in an effort to discover what it was but all he knew was that it was a powerful disturbance.
