From-Heaven2Earth: Don't worry Hon I wont, THANKS!
COME ON I NEED MORE REVIEWS!
Han sat staring at the holo-pad where he had just re-told the story of the night of Leia's kidnapping. He knew he couldn't go through with thin any longer. He had told all of the officials that she had been called out to a remote planet for diplomatic reasons. She was always doing that. He then told them that the inhabitants of the planed needed her to rebuild their government. He even went as far as to write fake progress reports. It was almost like if no one else knew then it didn't really happen. Like if no one else knew she might come home that night.
Han looked at the desk he had spent the last year in front of. When he and Leia had gotten together he said it was under the condition that he never have a desk job. He loved her enough to give himself one. In the center of the desk was the ring he had bought for her. The symbol of a promise never made. Getting up to go to bed he paused at the bedroom door. Laying his palm against it he ached to enter it with her again. Since that night he hadn't gone back in there. Glancing in the mirror he saw the ghastly image that was him now. He had aged ten years in one. Luke fared the same. He spent all of his time in his office fretting. He no longer looked like an innocent farm boy, but a haggard old man. Somehow they couldn't give Leia up. Something at the back of their minds prevented them giving up.
Han laid down on the couch and fell asleep, if it was even considered sleep. He usually had a stream of nightmares. As he closed his eves Leia opened hers. It was amazing seeing Courissant after a year. It had only been one but it felt like ten. She wished she was at the apartment. More than anything she wanted to see Han, to tell then they had a child. but in the past tense had. She wanted him to hold her.
ONE YEAR EARLIER
As Leia got out of the car she felt a cold snake like thing grasp both wrists. Before she knew it she was in a back alley. They tied her up with a strange rope that felt like water. A swift blow to the head prevented her from uttering a sound. They then carried her off to a hover van and threw her into the back.
Han and Luke had tried to me funny and madder her get out first. They immediately regretted it. When they stumbled out of the car there was nothing. Frantically they searched the surrounding area for the disappeared Leia. Luke made a beeline for the guard station. Han followed suit while Chewy and Lando got back into the car. Once there they told the guard everything.
"THE PRINCESS IS MISSING!" the frightened guard yelled. Suddenly Han's eyes widened with epiphany and Luke knew it.
"What is it?" Luke asked.
"We cant tell anybody." Han breathed.
"WHAT?"
"No, listen if people know someone will try a daring rescue. Her captors will kill her in that case. The only was to deal with these people is to hunt them down with stealth. Now wipe the guards memory." Luke obliged. His Jedi powers had some real world purpose. Then he realized that had had inferred Leia was kidnapped.
"Well duh laser boy," was his curt response, "how else would she disappear so efficiently." Luke knew his best friend's anger was just fear. They raced back to the car to look for any clue. It was Luke that found the jelly like rope coil in the bushes.
It was Leia however that awoke to the sound of a voice in a strange language barking at her.
