They stood outside the Cantina. "Careful this place can be rough "Obi Wan warned "C3P0 you and R2D2 wait here. I heard they don't allow droids in there. "Leia ordered "Okay princess "C3P0 replied the group entered the cantina. There were mercenaries, smugglers, and bounty hunters inside. A band was playing some upbeat music. Leia was looking around for someone. Han Solo sat in a booth while Chewbacca was getting a drink. He noticed a beautiful woman in a white dress with a hood enter the cantina. She looked out of place here. Luke went to the bar and ordered water. Walrusman pushed Luke aside and growled at him. An older man was with him and approached Luke. "He doesn't like. I don't like you. I have the death sentence on twelve systems. "The old man said "This little old is worth the trouble now let me get you something. "Obi Wan said as he tried to mind trick the old man. "You will be dead. "The old man growled. Walrusman pulled out his blaster. "No blasters No blasters! "The bartender shouted. Suddenly a purple blade slashed the blaster apart. Han looked on to see what was going on. "You want anymore trouble. "Leia smiled as she held her lightsaber. The two troublemakers ran out of the cantina. "She's a freaking Jedi!" Han thought to himself as he saw Princess Leia holding her purple lightsaber. Leia deactivated her lightsaber. "Are you right? "Obi Wan asked Luke. "Yeah, I am fine. Chewbacca is first mate on a ship that might serve us well. "Obi Wan replied Leia saw Chewbacca leading the group. She would know that old Wookie anywhere. Han saw the group approaching him and the jedi woman in white was with them. She wore a big metal belt. She must be a princess, but why was she here.

"I am Han Son captain of the Millennium Falcon. I hear you are looking for passage to the Alderaan system? "Han asked "If it's a fast ship? "Obi Wan asked "You haven't heard of the Milennium Falcon? It's the ship that made the Kessel run in 12 parsecs. "Han explained "What is the cargo? "Han asked

"Two droids. One an astromech is carrying information vital to the rebellion and needs to get to Alderaan quickly. Our ship was damaged while fleeing from tie fighters. We can't go anywhere right now. There are four-star destroyers above us right now. They won't notice you heading out. "Leia explained "You're a princess, right? "Han asked "Yes, I am Princess Leia Organa of Alderaan. "Leia answered "I know it from the clothes you are wearing. "It was cost you 10,000. "Han explained "We can give you 10,000 plus 15,000 when the droids get there. "Obi Wan said "We could buy our own ship for that. "Luke groaned "Relax Luke, I can handle it. "Leia said "We will leave when you are ready docking bay 94. "Han said "94" Obi Wan replied "Looks like someone has taken an interest in your handy work. 'Han said as some stormtroopers were talking to the bartender. "I understand you had a disturbance here. "A stormtrooper asked the bartender as he pointed to Han's booth. When the stormtroopers arrived at the booth Han and Chewie were alone as the rest of the group had fled. The stormtroopers left.

"That princess must be in real trouble. Chewie gets back to the ship and get her ready. "Han ordered The group was outside heading towards docking bay 94. As Han started to leave the cantine he ran into a Rodian named Greedo had his blaster pointed at Han Solo. He forced Han into a booth and the two got into a fight shooting at each other with Greedo dead at the end. Han turned to the bartender and threw some credits on the bar "Sorry about the mess. "Han said

On the Devastator Darth Vader was looking out the windows on the front of the bridge at the Tatooine when the captain brought him a message. "Disturbing report out of Mos Eisley of a jedi woman wearing a white dress who chased two men out of a cantina. Could it be the princess? "The captain asked "The force is strong with Princess Leia. Who trained her without me or the emperor sensing it? "Vader replied "Maybe you would like to go down there and deal with her yourself my lord. "The captain suggested "I hate sand. It's coarse and it damages my life support system. "Vader groaned

The group reached docking bay 94 and met Han by the Millennium Falcon. "What a piece of junk. "Luke groaned "It doesn't look like much, but it can make .5 past lightspeed. "Han explained Leia pulled her hood down. "C3PO and R2D2 go with him. "Leia ordered. "Why princess? We would be much safer with you? "C3PO asked "I need to get you and Artoo to Alderaan as fast as possible. Just go with them already "Leia explained "We will see you on Alderaan Han. "Leia waved goodbye. The group left the docking bay and headed back to their ship.

"You knew him before didn't you Leia? "Luke asked "Very very well. "Leia answered. They watched the Falcon take off and fly away. They reached the Tantive IV and the radar antenna was repaired. They took off and headed towards space

When the Tantive IV reached orbit Leia didn't jump into hyperspace right away. She had to lose the star destroyers which started chasing and attacking them again. Leia flew away from Tatooine and headed for Geonosis.

"Why don't you jump into Hyperspace princess? "Luke asked "We can't risk getting caught in a tractor beam from one of those star destroyers. That's how I got captured the last time. We will go around Geonosis and enter hyperspace behind it before they can catch us. "Leia explained

Vader watched from the bridge of the Devastator as they chased the Tantive IV. "My lord the Adjuster is closing in on the target. They will capture the princess soon. "The captain explained

Leia neared Geonosis and started going around the planet pushing the sub light engines to their limit. "They are closer princess they are going to catch us. "Luke warned "Not a chance Luke. "Leia replied Luke noticed the planet Geonosis to the left of the ship as they circled it. The main cannons were firing back at the pursuing start destroyers and unlike before were at full power. The cannons were damaging the imperial ship. Leia jumped into hyperspace leaving the enemy far behind.

"They have jumped into hyperspace. We have lost them my lord. "The captain said to Darth Vader.

"The emperor wishes to speak to lord vader. "The communications order said

"I will speak to him in my quarters. "Vader replied Darth Vader left the bridge and headed to his quarters. He knew Palpatine wasn't going to like the news of Princess Leia using a lightsaber. Vader kneeled before the holo projector as the image of Palpatine appeared before him

"What is thy bidding my master? "Vader asked Palpatine "There has been a great disturbance in the force. "Palpatine said "I have felt it my master. It is Princess Leia. She used the force to pull the stolen data card into her hand at Scarif. She used a lightsaber in. Mos Eisley. Somehow, she has been trained in the ways of the force "Darth Vader explained "How was she trained without us noticing it and who trained her? "Palpatine asked "I suspect Obi Wan Kenobi trained her. I do not know how he shielded her from the force. "Vader answered "She is powerful however we will soon dispose of her. Lord Vader go to the Death Star and remain there. "Palpatine ordered. "Yes, my master." Vader replied and the hologram of Palpatine disappeared.

Vader thought to himself. The princess did look familiar like someone he once knew. No, it couldn't be possible. He ordered the captain to take him to the Death Star
