Chapter 17: I already know
"Aunt, what is it." She said, when she was in the turbo-lift with them. "Leia, you know you were adopted right, well, your real father-"
"I know about my biology, thanks, though, please don't ask how Luke and I found out, though." She said, ruefully, Luke had found out battling Darth Vader, their father, and Leia had found out from Luke moments before the battle of Endor. "
Oh, phew, that is a relief, I thought I would have to tell you." Rouge said, putting a hand on her chest, "you see, Bail made us promise that we would tell you, before we said hi, or gave u a hug. He was going to tell you on your 21st birthday."
"Well, I want you to meet some people, Luke and Han."
"Luke we have already met, he was the one who rescued us, you know."
Leia felt her eyes narrow, "Rescue, is that the top-secret mission they were talking about."
"That I don't know, but I do know he is a well-mannered child, who wanted you to have a surprise." Tia said.
"A little diplomatically rough, though." Cousin Narel said.
"Who is this Han." Rouge asked.
Leia blushed, "He is one of my best friends." Over her head, Rouge, Tia, and Narel traded glances, they could tell 'friends' in what context.
Then the turbolift reached. "Oh, Aunt Rogue, Luke and Han are the only, living, people besides myself whom we have told about the biology, we are trying to find a graceful way to disclose the information."
"We won't tell a soul." Rogue said.
Then they went inside her suite, where Luke and Han were waiting. ", Luke Skywalker, Jedi Knight, and Hero of the Rebellion, Duchess Rogue, of the House Organa, the House of Alderaan. Luke tried to bow, while Rogue did a perfect regal acceptance nod.
"Luke, this is Duchess Tia of the House of Alderaan, and her son, Count Narel of the House of Alderaan."
Luke again did his highly comical bow. "General Han Solo of the New Republic, also Hero of the Rebellion, Duchess Rouge of the House Organa, the House of Alderaan. Han bowed. "General Han Solo."
Han bowed. "General Han Solo,
Duchess Tia of the House Organa, the House of Alderaan, and her son, Count
Narel of the House Organa of the House of Alderaan."
Han bowed again.
