A/N- Thanks so much for the reviews! Only three more chapters to go before the sequel, which will be called "Prophecy Lady."

Chapter 8- Save the Day

"We're landing now," Han said. "Where is she, Luke?"

"I don't know. Where did Vader hold you and Leia when you were held captive here?" the Jedi replied.

Lorelei entered the cockpit and stood behind Luke. She had removed the black overlay so that her bare arms were visible. Luke turned and gave her a smile.

"You can wait on the Falcon, if you like," he said. Lorelei shook her head.

"No way. Besides I'm no stranger to adversity," she replied, pulling out the wooden wand she carried. To Luke, she handed the scroll.

"Are you sure that thing will protect you, sister?" Han asked, touching the ship to the landing platform.

"I can do much more than transform scrape metal into goblets."

"Maybe you ought to take a blaster with you…just in case," Luke suggested.

The young witch laughed. "I'd probably do more damage to me than to any baddies," she said.

"Why do you want me to have the scroll?"

"Because they'll suspect me having it."

Han nodded and the three of them descended the ramp out of the ship.

"On your guard, kiddies. I don't know about your Imperials, or whatever, but Voldemort and his Death Eaters have curses like you wouldn't be able to imagine," she warned as they began to make their way quietly through Cloud City.

The city was quiet today, and it was this fact alone that unnerved the rescue trio. They ran into maybe two people total on the way to the cell block that had once held Han, Leia, and Chewbacca.

"Here it is," Han said. "Watch out. I'll hotwire it."

"Wait," Lorelei said.

Han and Luke stepped aside to let her to the door. She stepped up to it, ran her hands over it, and then smiled.

"This is locked with a very simple charm. I'll open it," she said. Then, turning to the door, she said, "Alohomora!"

The door hesitated at first, seeming to groan in protest of the spell, but then it slid open. However, a great shock greeted Han and Luke on the other side.

"Luke! Han!" Leia cried, jumping to her feet to hug them.

Lorelei stepped aside to allow the captives to escape their prison.

Luke seemed speechless. Anakin stood and walked to his son.

"Luke?" he questioned. "Are you all right?"

"You're dead!" Han exclaimed.

"No. I never died. It was a clone, my son," he said. "Though make no mistake, I am Anakin."

Apparently coming to himself, Luke smiled and said, "I'm fine. I can…I mean, not in words…I don't know how to say it…"

Anakin rested a hand on his son's shoulder. "I know. Believe me, I know."

"I'm Kitster, by the way," said the elderly man, exiting the cell behind Luke's father.

"And I'm Lorelei," Lorelei said, by means of introduction.

"Oh, yeah. Sorry. Father, Leia, and Kitster, I guess, this is Lorelei Potter. She's our resident expert on these wizards as she is a witch herself," Luke said. Lorelei smiled and inclined her head a bit. "And Lorelei, this is my father, Anakin, and my sister, Leia."

"Son, this is Kitster. He is a friend of mine from childhood," Anakin said.

Luke stepped forward to extend his hand, but Lorelei knocked him aside, shouting, "Stupefy!"

"What the hell?" Han asked, turning.

On the floor behind the group lay a cloaked figure, obviously frozen stiff.

"A Death Eater," Lorelei said, bending over the figure. She removed the mask that he was wearing to reveal a man with long, white-blond hair. "Lucius Malfoy. Well, we'll have to collect him later."

"We should go," Leia said.

"Yes, but wait. Who was it that captured you?" Luke asked.

"Abdul Palpatine and that Lord Voldemort."

"Who's Abdul Palpatine?"

"He claims to be the Emperor's son," Anakin said. "And, he's a Sith Lord."

This seem to dampen Luke's spirit. "Then I must go after him," the Jedi said. "It wouldn't be safe just to let him get away. Han, Lorelei, take Leia, Kitster, and Father to the Falcon. I'll be along in a bit…but if I'm not back in a suitable amount of time…go without me."

"No!" Lorelei and Leia said in unison. Both opened their mouths to continue their protests, but Luke simply shook his head and ran the opposite way of the ship. Han sighed.

"You heard the man. Let's go. We'll get the ship ready to go, just in case we have to make a quick escape," the pilot said.

Reluctantly, Leia, Kitster, and Anakin followed Han as he started in the direction of the ship. However, Lorelei didn't move. Han saw this.

"Lorelei! Let's go!" he called to her.

She shook her head. "No. Luke doesn't fully know what he's dealing with. I'm going after him."

She turned to look Han and the others in the eye.

"Han, take them to the ship and get it ready to leave…like you said. I'm going."

And without another word, Lorelei followed in Luke's direction.

------------

It was dark in these corridors. So dark that Lorelei had to use the Lumos spell to light her way. The darkness was made all the more worse for the fact that she didn't know the city, nor where Luke had gone.

I hope I don't run into anybody I know, she thought.

Of course, no sooner had the thought left her mind, she hear a woman's voice cry, "Expelliarmus!"

Lorelei's wand flew from her hand to the floor. Then, she heard the voice cry, "Accio Wand!"

Lorelei's wand flew from her hand to the floor. Then, she heard the voice cry, "!"

Lorelei felt the air off her wand as it whizzed into the other person's hand. Then, a figure stepped out of the shadows. It was that of a woman with long dark hair, and sunken, dark eyes. One could tell that she had once been beautiful, but something had prematurely aged her. She was robed in a simply brown cloak, her other clothing hidden beneath it. She was pointing her own wand at Lorelei as she held a mask and Lorelei's wand in her other hand.

"Bellatrix Lestrange," Lorelei breathed out in a hiss. "Still serving Voldemort loyally, I see?"

"How dare you speak his name with your unworthy lips!…No matter. My master will be pleased that I've captured the key ingredient to the spell that is perhaps minutes away from his possession," she said. "Now, if you'll be a good girl and follow me, we'll meet your friend as he meets his doom!"

With Bellatrix's wand at her back, Lorelei had no choice but to follow her direction.
