I forgot to post this in the first place but I haven't written anything in something like ten years. So I would appreciate it if you would post a review so I could get some constructive criticism and see if anyone actually likes this story. I'm going to try and post a POV of Korra and Luke once a month. If that means one chapter or two or more then, so be it. I couldn't get something out of my head so I wrote chapter 1 of Retirement. If all goes according to plan then, that will be posted on the fifteenth. (I just majorly fucked up. I tried to edit my other story and ended up deleting most of this story by accident. Sorry about that)

Chapter 2

The first thing he was aware of was a female voice that said, "Uncle Luke? Are you okay? Come on. Wake up." He thought about that voice for a second. His head was still foggy. He wondered why it was familiar.

"Jaina?" He asked, trying to open his eyes.

"Yes, it's me." She said.

Finally, he convinced his eyes to open. He was met with an insanely bright white light. He blinked several times to get his eyes to adjust. He saw Jaina as she leaned over him while he was on his back in the cold snow.

As she helped him sit up, Jaina asked, "You okay?"

"Yeah." He said and he shook his head to try to get the fogginess out of his head, "What happened? The last thing I remember is landing, getting out of our ships and then, you waking me up."

"Don't know. Master Horn and I are the same." She said, "I woke up first, then him and when you didn't wake up, that's when I tried to wake you."

As he looked around, Luke asked, "Where is Master Horn by the way?"

"Trying to find our ships."

"They're gone?" He asked and stood up. Somehow, he was not all that surprised that the ships were gone.

"Yup." Jaina nodded.

Opening himself up to the Force, he could feel Corran Horn in the distance, and someone else a little farther out. Someone familiar but foreign at the same time, he couldn't place it.

"Do you feel that person in the distance? Beyond Master Horn."

He felt her stretching out her senses.

"Yeah, it kinda feels like…you?"

"Me?" He asked. He tried to feel the person again.

"Yeah, you." She said more confidently, "But younger, not as developed in the Force."

He reached out with the Force and touched the other man's mind. It was a young man. Strong but untrained in the Force, which was not a good combination. There was something off about the other man's Force signature, too. But, that's when he felt it. A touchback, untrained and tentative, like the person was reaching out in the dark when he felt someone else do it.

"It is me!" Luke said surprised, "But how, I wonder."

"No idea." Came a deep voice.

They turned and saw Corran.

"So, you felt him too?" asked Jaina.

"Yeah." Corran began, "I felt him a little while ago. I sensed him patrolling. He's been doing some of the routes that I learned from Wedge."

"That would make sense if it is me from the past," Luke said.

"Wait, why do both of you seem perfectly fine with a past version of Master Skywalker running around?" Jaina asked incredulously.

"Time travel has happened before." Corran said and shrugged, "Why not now?"

"Yes, but into the future, not the past. Or have neither of you noticed the large amount of life at the old Echo Base." Jaina argued.

Luke stretched out his senses to the old Base and found that there was a lot of life at Echo Base. He could tell, from a quick passing over with his Force senses, that there was about as much, if not more, then when the Rebels controlled it. Luke was surprised about how much life was there. But Luke felt another touch in the Force that was stronger than before that distracted him from investigating Echo Base further.

"We'll have to have this conversation another time," Luke said. He pointed to a speck in the distance, "Because the young me is heading this way."

They turned and waited patiently while they watched a man on a Tauntaun approach. He wore the same uniform Luke had worn over forty years ago on Hoth. It was kind of disorienting.

The man stopped about five meters away from the group of Jedi. He removed the scarf and goggles that covered his face. Revealing a face without the many scars Luke had received and gotten used to over the many years of fighting. It was without all the gray hair that had come. Without all the worry lines, laugh lines and just plain weariness that Luke had felt since his fight with Abeloth and the Lost Tribe of the Sith.

"Hello there." Luke said and bowed, "We are Jedi from the former Republic, come to help." It wasn't a complete lie. They were Jedi from a former Republic. Just not the Jedi Order or Republic that young Luke would think of. "Who might you be?" Luke asked even though he knew exactly who the young Luke was.

"Hello," Young Luke began, "I'm Commander Skywalker of the Rebel Alliance. How did you know we were here? And if you are Jedi from the Old Republic, why didn't you help us before?"

Luke glanced at Corran and Jaina, silently asking for their opinion.

Corran shrugged and said, "It's up to you if you want to tell the truth. We can't hide your names forever."

Jaina nodded and said, "I, unfortunately, agree with Master Horn. We can't hide our names forever if we want to get the Alliances trust to get back."

Luke sighed and turned back to young Luke and said, "If you take us to General Rieekan and Princess Leia, they know us, and I'll explain everything I can."

Before young Luke could respond, his commlink started to beep.

"Excuse me." He said before he unwrapped his glove and answered his commlink.

Luke couldn't hear exactly what was said between the two because young Luke spoke softly into his wrist. But Luke could tell that it was Han Solo that young Luke talked to. Young Luke ended his talk with Han and fiddled with his commlink. He said a couple of words and waited, then he seemed to repeat everything that was said with the Jedi.

He then turned back to the Jedi and asked, "If you know the General and the Princess, what is the security code for high-level Alliance personal?"

Luke thought about it. It had been a while since those codes have been used.

"Talus Haroon Ten Eleven Thirty-eight," Luke replied.

Young Luke nodded and repeated the code to whoever was on the other side.

"Code checks out." Young Luke said. He lowered his hand from his face and re-covered both from the cold. "Follow me." Young Luke turned and waved them forward, "A storm's coming, so, we best be on our way."

The group started their way to Echo Base when Jaina leaned over to Luke and asked, "Are you sure it's a good idea to tell them who we are?"

"No," Luke responded, "But if we want to find a way to get back to our time, we need the Alliance's help. To do that, we need their trust. And the only way I can think of to gain that is to tell the truth."

"I agree with Master Skywalker." Corran said, once young Luke was far enough away.

Jaina seemed to tolerate that answer and straightened back up.

They continued their trek to the Base at a slow pace because they were walking, and not on a Tauntaun. Even though, with the Force, the Jedi could've made it there in no time.

At one point, young Luke slowed down to match the Jedi's pace to ask, "How are you three not cold?"

"Ancient Jedi secret." Jania said and smirked.

"It's not a secret. But it is an ancient Jedi technique. One of the first ones discovered." Luke said.

"Can you teach it to me?" Young Luke asked, "It would be really useful out here."

"Maybe." Luke responded getting a look from Corran and Jaina, "Someday."

Young Luke nodded and continued back to his regular pace.

They arrived at the Base at dusk. They made good time considering they started around mid-day and the day-night cycle on this part of the planet was fast, and they were about ten kilometers away.

The gate into hangar bay 7 was exactly how Luke remembered it. When it opened, he saw the Falcon. It looked old, battered and falling apart. It was so unlike the Falcon now with military grade everything. They heard a Wookie holler and Luke could feel Jaina's and his own happiness at that noise. The other Luke went into the Tauntaun pen at the far side of the hangar. When he returned, he led them to the left, then he made a quick right through a turbolift cluster and a right turn into the command center.

When they entered, it was buzzing with noise. General Rieekan and Leia each leaned over different stations. Young Luke went over to Rieekan and got his attention by saluting. Rieekan returned the salute and started to talk with young Luke. Luke sensed someone's surprise and turned toward it. He met face-to-face with a young Leia. She looked at Luke. Then she looked at young Luke. Then back to Luke again. Then she looked at Jaina with even more surprise. Then she looked at Corran. She didn't know who he was yet.

"So, you're the Jedi that supposedly knows me," Rieekan said as Luke turned back to him.

"Yes, sir." Luke replied, "Can we go somewhere more private and talk? Like the briefing room? That seems to be empty at this point."

"How-?" Rieekan started before he nodded and lead the way.

"Oh, and Captain Solo should be a part of this, too," Luke said before Rieekan could leave. Rieekan said something to the person who operated the station he was at before turning towards the other exit. They made a right, then a quick left into the empty briefing room and waited until Han came in, grumbling about something. He eyed Luke. Luke didn't need Force powers to sense Han's surprise because he did the same thing Leia had done with him and the others.

Now that it was just Han, Leia, young Luke, Rieekan, Corran, Jaina and Luke, Rieekan began, "So, will you tell us who you are? How you know us and why you have extensive knowledge about the Alliance?"

Luke pinched his brow and sighed, "It's going to sound crazy but…we think we're from the future." He let that sink in before he continued, "About forty-two years to be a little more precise."

He thought Han would laugh and call him crazy, but he stayed silent, so Luke continued, "I wasn't lying when I said we are a part of the Jedi Order and a part of the former Republic. You assumed I meant the Old Republic and Jedi Order. But no, this is Jedi Master Corran Horn," Luke gestured to him, Corran bowed, "Jedi Master and Sword of the Jedi, Jaina Solo-Fel," He gestured to her next and she bowed, "And I'm the leader and founder of the New Jedi Order, Grand Master Luke Skywalker." Luke bowed his head, "We are formally a part of the now dead New Republic and formally a part of the ruling galactic body, the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances."

There was silence in the room as the past tried to comprehend what he just said.

"There are so many questions. I don't know where to start." Leia said.

"How about we go with Jaina Solo-Fel?" Han asked.

Luke looked toward Jaina, "Yes, I'm your daughter." She began, "I'm your daughter, too." She said as she looked at Leia.

"My daughter?!" Leia asked incredulously. Jaina nodded, "With him?!" Jaina nodded again.

"Okay, next question, what happened to the New Republic?" Rieekan asked, interrupting that line of questioning.

"That's a long story. But, mainly corruption, incompetence and the Yuuzhan Vong." Luke replied.

"Who's the Yuuzhan Vong?" Young Luke inquired.

"Long story short, an extragalactic species who tried, and nearly succeeded, in conquering the whole galaxy. The Galactic Alliance is what's left of the galaxy's factions." Corran answered.

"Next question that we can answer without changing too much?" Luke asked.

"So, the Rebel Alliance wins the war?" Rieekan questioned, and Leia nodded her interest. They seemed very hopeful.

"Yes, eventually," Luke said.

"How long is eventually?" Han asked.

"About sixteen years from now," Luke responded.

"Sixteen years?!" Han said in disbelief. Luke nodded.

"Anything else?"

"How did you get here? In this time?" Leia asked.

"We don't know." Luke started, "We were on our way to Bespin to get a shipment of a special Tibanna Gas for the Order's starfighters. We detected a strong energy signature coming from near the old Echo Base, we landed and that's it. We woke up here."

"Well, we'll find you someplace to sleep for your stay here." said Rieekan as he headed toward the exit.

"Thank you," Luke said and bowed his head again. Corran and Jaina also said their thanks and bowed.

"I better get back to the Falcon and see if Chewie needs any help," Han said. He still looked a little bit shaken.

"Yeah, I should get back to the Rogues." Young Luke said.

"I better inform Rebel Command about this development." said Leia. She also looked a little bit shaken.

They left, leaving the Jedi alone in the briefing room.

"Well, that went well," Corran said.

"Why are you being so relaxed and calm about all this? Normally, you would be questioning everything." Jaina asked, aghast.

"It seems Mirax, Booster and the kids have finally gotten to me," Corran responded and shrugged.

"Or Kyp," Jaina mumbled.

"Hey-!"

They were interrupted by a woman in typical Rebel Hoth gear who entered the room.

"Sorry to have interrupted anything," The woman started, "But I'm here to take you to your room on the General's orders."

"Sounds good. Thank you." Luke replied.

They were led out of the briefing room and went straight down to the end of the hallway. They took a left, through what seemed to be another turbolift cluster, went to the end of the small hall and then followed it as it turned towards the left and the woman stopped almost immediately at a door.

"This is it." She said as she gestured to the door.

"Thank you," Luke said again. He bowed his head and she walked away.

Luke pressed the button to open the door and they went inside the sleeping quarters. It looked about how Luke remembered. It had bunks all around the walls of the room. This one, though, looked empty.

"We might as well get some sleep. I've got a feeling tomorrow's going to be very hectic." Luke said as he laid down on one of the bottom bunks.

It took awhile for Luke to fall asleep, but when he did, he had a vision.

A woman in her early to mid-twenties, with short brown hair, blue eyes and dark skin. She is wearing what looked like blue tribal clothing with an animal skin wrapped around her waist. On her hands are gloves that didn't cover her fingers but went up to her shoulders. On her feet are fur-lined boots. She is standing in a fighting stance like Soresu, but without any weapons. In a snowstorm, she is manipulating snow and turning it into water and ice as a weapon. She's fighting an unseen opponent. The woman collapsed, for some reason, looking suddenly weak. The woman is looking over at another woman. This one wearing red with long raven hair, green eyes and appeared about the same age as the other. She's wearing different shades of red and a bit more modern clothing, with a blue tribal winter coat. The woman in red is then slammed into a nearby cliffside, by an invisible force, hitting her head.

"Asami!" The woman in blue is screaming, as she stumbles over to her.

The woman in blue is picking up the woman, apparently named Asami and cradling her in her lap while a new person appeared. A man, at least it was looking like a man, wearing a mask somewhat like Vader's, but it was silver and shiny, with a singular Mandalorian-style eye socket. He is wearing armor, also like Vader's, but without the control panel on his chest. He has claws on his fingers and multiple lightsabers on his belt. The man in the mask is standing over the pair with a raised red lightsaber. Ready to kill them both.

Luke woke up with a start. It had been a while since he'd had a vision that real. He sensed someone approach the door. So, Luke got up and went to the door, and found the same woman who'd led them there.

"Did you need something?" Luke asked. She jumped back, apparently startled.

"Oh, um, yes, the General requested to see the three of you in the command center about something." The woman said as she regained her composure.

"He didn't say what?"

"No, only that it concerns you three."

"Okay, thank you. We'll be there in a little bit."

The woman turned and left. Luke woke up Corran and Jaina. Once awake, they went to the command center.

"Morning." Rieekan said when they entered, "We have a report that would interest you. We just got word of more people arriving out of nowhere, this time, near the Clabburn Range. There's a storm out so-."

Luke sensed danger and darkness near the range and thought about his vision.

"Send troops and medics to where they were spotted. We'll head there immediately." Luke said with urgency and he took off.

"But there's a-." Was all Luke heard before he was out of the room.

He was outside the Base in a storm when Corran and Jaina got back within earshot of him.

"-ncle Luk-! -ow down!" He heard Jaina shout. He slowed his pace, so they could catch up with him.

"What's wrong?" Jaina asked once she caught up with him.

"There's danger and a dark presence there. Don't you sense it? And, I also had a vision which I think is coming true." Luke said.

He quickened his pace and used the Force to augment his speed. Even with the storm, it didn't take long before he made it there and saw what was in his vision. The woman in blue cradling the woman named Asami. While the man in the mask was about to bring down his lightsaber on the pair.

No!
