1 Part three continued…
Luke stared around the conference room of the Death Star, "Father she will fight. I know her better than you. She WILL destroy us."
The dark man standing next to him, didn't agree, "No. Your sister loves you too much. That was her downfall."
"And is that mine?" Luke demanded.
"No, Son, you are loyal to the end. Now go."
Luke obeyed and left. Darth Vader ran his hands down on of the chairs, "Oh daughter. What have you become? Your mother's spirit is inside of you. I never would drive it out and I no longer see the need to do so. You are your mother's daughter and that I have to accept."

Leia climbed into her X-Wing. She pulled her head out a little, "Porkins! Have they found me an R2 Unit?"
Porkins yelled back, "NO!"
She looked down at Bail, "How am I supposed to fly?"
Before he could answer a whirring noise interrupted them, "Leia may I introduce you to R2-D2. He will be your R2 unit."
Leia looked down at the blue-domed droid, "Hey isn't he Winter's droid?"
Bail shook his head, "He was your mother's. And C-3PO belonged to your father."
Leia was stunned, "What?"
"ALL UNITS REPORT TO YOUR SHIPS FOR TAKEOFF!" A booming voice called.
"God speed Leia." Bail said and backed out of the hanger.
This was it. She was about to head to head with her father, her brother, her friends, her family. She just hoped she had enough strength to get the job finished before it was too late.
Leia eased the X-Wing into the air. She was nervous and scarred. Two emotions that were a little new to her. She spent the next two hours in hyperspace before the Death Star loomed before her.
She felt, she KNEW, that her father was not onboard. But she could feel Luke's presence. It was so strong. "Oh Luke, I am so sorry. But I have to finish what our mother started.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Lord Skywalker, the Rebels are now within our view." An Imperial Commander informed Luke.
"Thank you, Commander." Luke replied. He would feel Leia's presence. Father had refused to stay and so Vader had left. Suddenly Leia's voice filled his head, "Luke, I am so sorry."
Luke felt angry and he yelled out at the stars, "Sorry! Leia how can you be sorry?"
Leia's voice filled his head. He could tell she was sad, "Luke our mother started this Rebellion and I intend to fulfill her wishes of destroying the empire. My war is not with you. It is with the Empire."
"Than your war is with me." Luke snarled, "Commander!"
"Yes, Lord Skywalker?"
"You may begin."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Leia stared out as hundreds of Ties filled the air. She spoke calming to the others, "The main center front and main center back are their biggest faults."
"Copy that," Biggs called back. His voice was so even, so calm that it unnerved Leia.
She cracked her neck and R2 whistled shrilly. She turned to her left and saw hundreds more Tie-Fighters come from the Death Star. Among them was Luke.
Leia's eyes clouded up. There was no going back now.
