My Frozen Heart
Chapter 6
Warning: I switch from POV to POV a lot in this chapter.
Luke Skywalker sat dejectedly at the small dining table in the Lars's homestead. In his opinion his life had sunk to an all time low. His uncle Owen had point blank refused to let him leave Tatooine for another year. He saw his life as one long trudge of hard work and boredom.

Luke sat repeatedly banging a teaspoon on the Lars's table, trying desperately to drum the boredom out of himself. In between beats he heard heated voices coming from the Lars's courtyard. Moving closer to the door he began to eavesdrop on the conversation.
"He's not leaving!" Came his uncle Owen's voice.
"Is it your decision Owen?" Retaliated a voice he half recognised, as though he'd heard it in a dream.
"We need him here." Added his Aunt Beru's voice, he thought she sounded slightly frightened.
"You knew this day would come Beru." Answered the mysterious voice.
"Fine," Snapped Owen's voice "Lets get Luke out here and asks him what he wants!"
"Yes, Luke come out here." Called his aunt, straining to sound normal and relaxed. Luke, with his heart thumbing desperately stepped into the courtyard to see……………..
He he a cliffhanger is it Vader or Obi-Wan? Anyway coming soon Han Solo, and a blast from Obi's past.
