1 Part two continued…
Luke Skywalker glanced around, "Do you know who is fully responsible for this?"
The Imperial Commander nodded, "We believe that a woman named Leia Skywalker, along with a team, surprised the Imperials who were in charge of the security above this planet. A traitor within our ship gave the Rebel our plans."
"So I suppose I was sent here to find out that traitor," Luke mumbled.
"I'm sorry, sir, what?"
Luke looked up, "Nothing. Thank you, Commander, I will be in touch."
The Imperial Commander bowed and then left Luke alone in the Conference room. Yet another traitor within the Empire. There seemed to be so many of them lately. Just so so many of them. Luke shook his head. It was time to finish up his investigation.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Leia Skywalker emerged from the bedroom looking exhausted. She would have fallen down completely had Wedge not been there to catch her and guide her to a couch. "I'm finished," she whispered, her voice extremely hoarse.
Beru wrapped her arms around, "It'll be okay."
"What exactly did you do?" Owen asked.
"Its difficult to explain. He didn't want me too, after he realized what I was doing but there was nothing left in him to stop me."
"Is he going to make it?" Beru asked, pushing Leia back just enough to look in her face
Leia nodded, "He needs plenty more rest and lots of water."
Owen nodded, "I'll go get some from the farm. I'll be back soon."
Beru flashed her husband a smile. Owen couldn't stand Obi-Wan. She knew that he was doing this out of the love of his heart, "Thank you."
Owen left and Wedge sat down on the floor and gripped Leia's hand, "I think the more important question is, are you going to be all right?"
Leia nodded, "I just need to meditate and sleep a little."
Wedge nodded, "Okay."
"But not here. Lets leave."
"What?" Biggs asked, entering the hut. He was carrying plenty of fresh food, hard to find in an area like this.
Leia smiled at him. How had he known? Biggs offered her some and she took a small piece. "Aunt Beru?" She asked.
"Yes Honey?"
"Can you do me a huge favor?"
"What's that?"
"Could you make sure that Obi-Wan gets all the care he needs?"
"Of course we will darling," Beru offered.
"What about Uncle?"
"He will too. He doesn't want to admit it but I think he's gotten over his hatred of Obi-Wan."
"Good. Um... What happened to Bria?"
"She left several hours ago," Biggs told her. He still couldn't believe that she would just up and leave like that. None of them had pinned her as the really selfish type, but she was.
Leia knew the answer to her coming question, "Why?" Bria had left because the Rebellion was the most important thing to her. Not that Leia minded. At least not all that much.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Leia, Biggs, and Wedge arrived at the Rebel Base a few days later. Winter was all ready there. She race up to the trio. "I have been so worried about you guys! Where's Bria?"
"You tell us," Biggs told her.
Winter wrinkled her eyes, like she often did when she was thinking, "What's going on?"
Leia took a deep breath and began, "After we completed our mission, which went very well, I sort of freaked out because I had killed people and that wasn't the Jedi way. Anyway I fainted and when I woke up several days later there we were landing on Tatooine. To make a long story short I went to visit Master Kenobi, who was ill. I preformed this healing process that I had learned on Corscant and Bria got restless and left."
"How'd you guys get back?" Winter asked, "Did she take the ship?"
Wedge nodded, his anger was as clear as day, "And left us behind. I told her to it, that we would find another way here, and I must admit I was surprised that she would."
Winter made a huffing noise, "She is way to wrapped up in all of this. Even Mon Mothma or Bail would agree that family and friends come before the Alliance."
Leia shrugged, "So what's the plan?"
"They are still analyzing the data. All I know is that it is going to be very messy."
Leia nodded, "Especially if Luke and my father on onboard the Death Star." Weather or not she liked it she was going to wind up confronting one or the another, or even both.
