Luke Skywalker was sitting in his quarters meditating, when the news from Leia arrived. He walked to his computer and did a quick check of the area in space where the message had come from. As soon as he realized that it was very close to where he was, about a three hundredth of a light year away, he told the assistant leader of his Jedi academy that he would have to leave and for him to take over. Then, he called Ship Command and asked that they get his X-wing prepped and ready to fly immediately. By the time he had put on his flight suit and was ready to leave, Ship Command called him on his comm. link and told that the ship was ready.
Luke raced out of his room and into the hangar bay to his awaiting ship. The R4 droid in the back of the fighter told him that they had gotten sucked in to a black hole and that they were on the former planet Alderaan. Luke blasted off Yavin 4 and into to space.
As soon as he found the black hole he cautiously entered it, praying that he would live to tell about his experience. Luke managed to get through the emptiness fairly well, and soon found he planet once known as Alderaan. Luke began to descend into the planets atmosphere.
Chewbacca and Han were using their blasters to kill stormtroopers. Leia was trying her best to deflect as many blasts as possible while taking out a couple of the enemies herself. A blast shot by her and hit Chewbacca in the shoulder. Roaring in pain or anger, Leia wasn't sure which; Chewie blasted seven troopers in the chest before they even knew what hit them.
As soon as Luke's X-wing touched the ground, he leaped out and ran full speed for the palace. Making sure his lightsaber was on its hook at his side, Luke opened the doors to find himself in the middle of a battle. There were only about ten stormtroopers left shooting, which were quickly taken out by the two Jedi and the others.
Then once the troopers were dead, to the left hallway Ethir walked out, lightsaber in hand.
"Ethir, I should've known that you were behind this." Luke said to the other and with a snap/hiss the glowing green blade of his lightsaber ignited.
"You will not defeat me this time, Skywalker!" Ethir said as he drew his own dark blue blade.
"Don't be so sure of yourself." Luke said with a certain confidence. Leia stepped forward and drew her lightsaber, ready to help her brother. "No, Leia. I must defeat him myself." Leia stepped back and Luke stepped forward, he raised his blade and the clash of lightsabers was heard ringing in the hall. Sparks flew from the weapons as they clashed together. But as soon as Ethir realized that he wouldn't win, he drew his blade and with another snap/hiss turned. Luke gave one clean sweep and he had won the battle. He turned off his lightsaber and looked at the smoking pieces of the Dark Jedi and wondered if he had done the right thing. Leia ran up to him and flung her arms around his neck.
"Congratulations!" she said.
"Gee, I wish she'd treat me like that when I got home every night!" Han murmured. Chewbacca enveloped Han in a huge Wookie hug before he could complain any more. As soon as Chewie let go, Leia leaped into her husband's arms and gave him a quick peck.
"We'd better get out of here before any more stormtroopers come," Luke said.
"Hey look, I guess the guy wasn't so bad after all. He got somebody to fix our the Falcon!" Han exclaimed. Luke got in his X-wing while the others boarded the Millennium Falcon.
"Well, I guess we had better be headed back to Coruscant," Han said to Luke through the speaker.
"Yeah, I need to get back to the academy, too," the other said.
"Be careful, Luke. And thank you," Leia added.
"Any time. Bye," Luke said as the transition ended and Luke lifted off the ground.
Just as the Falcon blasted off into lightspeed, the black hole exploded into a billion pieces.
"So what are we going to tell Admiral Akabar?" Han asked Leia as they entered the atmosphere of their home planet.
But before Leia could answer the Admiral himself came over the transition.
"Millennium Falcon, this is Admiral Akabar, do you copy?" the other said.
"Loud and clear Admiral. This is Han Solo."
"You're back early. State your reason."
"Well, sir, we just thought that you might need us around here and we decided to return early," Han threw a lopsided grin at Leia.
"Don't forget to tell him about the Empire's containing process for black holes," Leia reminded Han.
"I'll tell him that in person," Han replied.
"Well, it's good to have you back, Captain." Akabar said and the transition ended.
