AN: Ok, this is pretty depressing, but it has an oober-scary plotline.
Here goes:
Prologue:
As the countless thousands of Yuzon Vong ships descended upon the last planet, the long lost heroes of the dead New Republic stared helplessly at the exploding sky. Leia Organa Solo, famed former chief of state, who had helped destroy the Empire and build up the Galaxy from nothing after its destruction. Next to her, her husband, Han Solo looked as though his luck had finally ran out. Originally a smuggler, who also had helped with the destruction of the Empire and been with Leia through the entire rebuilding and destroying of their galaxy. There three children were dead. Jaina and Jacen had been sacrificed to the Yuzon Vong god of war, something which no one could even bring themselves to speak of. Anakin had been killed in battle. Never had the galaxy been in such a sad state as this, and they new it. But even through all of this, they had not given up faith that the galaxy would prevail, in the final moments of destruction and enslavement. Luke Skywalker, Leia's twin brother, the famous Jedi master who had trained countless numbers of young Jedi, now all lost to the Yuzon Vong. All save one wookie, Lowbacca, nephew of the famous Chewbacca, now dead as well. Lowbacca stood a bit away from the group, obviously lost in some deep thought. Mara Jade Skywalker, once the Emperor's hand, now married to Luke and cradling their son, Ben, in her arms. She looked as though she had lost all since of hope. With them stood the two druids, R2-D2 and C3-PO. They were all that remained of those who remembered the galaxy in its glory. The last remnants of hope.
"Wait. I have an idea." Spoke Leia in an unsteady voice. "Once the Yuzon Vong find us, they will kill us all, so long as they know who we are. But they would have no way of recognizing Ben, as long as he wasn't with us. Someone could slip him in with the populace, and he would escape with the slaves." She finished with some difficulty.
"But who would take him?" Asked Mara, "They would recognize any of us."
With this, Lowie walked forward and growled something. None of them needed Em-Tee-Dee to translate. "You would take him?" Asked Luke. Lowbacca growled in response.
Mara looked down at her son, only a year and a half old, and slowly handed him to Lowbacca. Through tears, she said, "Look after him, Lowie. Don't let anything happen to him." As she spoke, explosions rocketed outside, knocking everybody, save Lowbacca, to their knees. "Go! There is no time!" Shouted Mara. Lowie started for the door, when Luke called out to wait. "There is one thing left to do." He said. With that, he put his hand up against his son's forehead. Mara, Lowie and Leia all gasped, as Luke placed memories of the time before the Yuzon Vong, before even the emperor, to the time of Anakin Skywalker and the Jedi Council. Of the former glory of the Jedi knights and how they had protected the galaxy. And how they were obliterated by Palpatine, how Luke had rebuilt there numbers, and how they were again defeated by the Yuzon Vong. "You are the galaxy's only hope, Ben. Good luck." Luke spoke in a soft voice. With that, he removed his hand, to reveal an ice blue star on Ben's forehead. Another jolt threw everyone to the ground again, and Lowie fled threw the door.

The Yuzon Vong leading the lines of slaves had not many scars, showing his low rank. He was not paying attention to any of the captives, even the tall wookie carrying a small bundle. One of his superiors happened to be watching, however, and he did notice the bundle. He took out his amphistaff and approached the wookie. When he heard the bundle cry, however, he understood. He let the wookie pass with the rest, and board the ship for one of the many slave planets.
AN: Ok, what did you all think? Good, bad? Please don't stop reading because this seems weird. At least try the next chapter, which is already posted. Thanks, Lily~^~
