"Your highness." They said in unison bowing down to her.
Amidala lowered her head in acknowledgement.
"You have an important mission ahead of you officers. This mission is to be done in complete secrecy. Do you understand?" she asked them looking them each in the eye.
They were all strong, this she knew. But in the four, three were adept in the Force. Bria Tharen was the only one with no power in the Force. Yet even then she was as strong as the rest. She was fiercely loyal and determined.
Amidala had often wondered at her. She had seen the young woman with Leia countless times and knew that they were friends. But at the same time she seemed withdrawn. Her eyes would wonder of to space. But right now all that mattered was her talents.
Mara Jade. The young woman was very strong in the Force, highly sensitive to it.
She was also very secluded and held herself far from the others. She had not made any friends at the Alliance. But as Leia had assured Amidala, Mara Jade was very skilled, one of the most dangerous woman in the Alliance. She was an asset and a vital person in the success of the mission.
Amidala turned her eyes to Luke and Leia, and as she looked into their eyes, and she realized that they had been waiting for this for a long time.
"You are the best officers in the Alliance, you have accepted this mission, knowing all that comes with it. You are all very skilled, and are each armed with a special talent. These talents are vital to the Rebel Alliance. Use them for the sake of your people, for the Alliance, for the good of the Universe, and the force will not fail you. Be strong young ones."
"We will not fail you my queen." Said Mara Jade in a hard tone.
Amidala nodded to them smiling now.
"May the Force be with you."
~Later that day
Amidala waited at the small room equipped with two beds. She stood in the middle afraid to move. She had been there for quite some time, standing in the room, taking in the appearance and the items that lay before her. Luke and Leia. The twins had been inseparable since birth, however different their personalities were.
She had been alone the day she had given birth to them, alone save for Sabé, the most trusted handmaiden. She had given birth in secret, and she had housed and raised them in secret. And when Amidala had formed the Alliance, she had allowed them to enter it. They were talented and strong, that had been evident since their birth. They were strong in the force, like their father.
And now they would be on the most dangerous mission the Alliance ever faced. Amidala was especially worried about Luke and Leia. They would finally be facing their most dangerous foe.
Amidala was lost in her thoughts, when the twins entered the room.
"My queen." Leia greeted her coming close for a hug.
Amidala closed her eyes and held her daughter tight.
"Mother." Luke said smiling. "How long have you been here?"
"Not very long Luke. I just wanted to tell you both how proud I am that you are in this mission, and that I love you both so much."
Luke stepped in closer, and held his mothers hands.
"We will not fail, and we will come back. Together. I promise you that mother." He said assuring her, giving her a smile.
Amidala nodded.
"I have told you about Vader and the emperor before, never underestimate them. And remember what Vader was to me my children." She instructed quietly.
She had never kept from her children that she had indeed been married to Darth Vader, when he was still the man named Anakin Skywalker. As a result Luke and Leia are using alias as their last names, they have been informed that their father is a dangerous man, and they musn't be found. "We remember, and we will be cautious." Leia said.
"You are both so strong, just like your father, come back to me." She said taking them both in her arms.
"We will." They said kissing her once more, before leaving.
As they left Amidala said a little prayer, a thing she had not done in a long time.
What a foolish mother I am, that I send my children to certain death for a cause. She thought to herself.
They are the only ones I have left.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Mother seemed to be really upset about this mission." Luke said to his sister as they walked to their ship "The Impulse".
"It's because we will be near Darth Vader." Leia said to Luke.
"Yes I suppose so. I wonder if there's more to it that that though." He said glancing at her.
"Well don't worry about it, we'll both be fine, and when we come back she'll be fine too."
"Yes. Leia?"
"Yes Luke?"
"We'll come back together right."
"Yes, we'll come back together."
~One day later aboard the empirial academy
"I can't believe they stick me up with three new trainees. Just my luck huh?" Han Solo complained to his friend Tyco Chelcu.
"Oh come on Han, it won't be that bad. We all have to do it sometime., and besides you like bossing people around." His friend retorted smiling.
"Not while I'm flyin Tyke."
"Well as I hear it these three are real good pilots, and that two of 'em are women."
"Women pilots, even better." Han responded, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Tyke you know how women pilots are…"
"Well these ones must be really amazing, they rarely accept women into the academy."
"I still say women pilots are nothing but trouble."
"And men pilots are daffodils?" a female voice spoke up from behind Han. He winced and wiped his forehead before turning around.
He suddenly smiled. She was very pretty, gorgeous in fact. As Han looked at her, something seemed to click inside him. He lost his voice for a moment.
"I'm looking for my commander, I was told I'd find him here."
Han blinked.
"Ya I'm the one you're looking for, uh isn't there supposed to be three of you?"
"Yes…"
Han turned around and waved his friend away.
Tyco smiled and turned.
"Well were are they?"
"There." The girl said pointing towards Han.
"Commander, I presume?" another female voice asked from behind him.

Note- in the star wars books, Bria Tharen was Han Solo's girlfriend, and he was majorly in love with her.
