Chapter Twenty-Seven:
Luke had no idea where he was going. All he knew was that he was being taken towards an odd looking planet. It looked to be an entire city covering the planet. He would have asked, but he was a bit weary of the storm troopers. So he kept his mouth closed.
Within a few minutes time, they had landed on a landing platform and then he was taken to another transport. He was beginning to worry about where he was going. But why had they taken only him and not Leia or Alyssa?
After a few more minutes, his questions were almost answered. The transport had landed in front of a huge palace. He starred up at it in awe, but then was pushed inside by a storm trooper.
"Move it boy!" he said.
They slowly made their way through the dark stone palace. The further into the palace they got, the more nervous Luke became. Something wasn't feeling right to him. It was a dark and foreboding feeling.
Finally they came upon a huge set of doors, the somehow easily swung open for them. The troopers pushed Luke into the room first then followed in behind him.
Sitting in the middle of the huge room was a lone chair. Slowly the chair turned around and revealed a dark cloaked figure.
"Leave us," the figure said to the storm troopers, who gladly complied.
After they left, Luke was really worried then. The only person who could hold this much power was…
"Are you Emperor Palpatine?" Luke wearily asked.
"Very good boy. But soon you will learn to call me Master."
"Where are we going Leia?" Alyssa softly asked.
"Shh Alyssa." Leia replied.
The two girls were being led down a cold, dreary hallway in what seemed to be a prison block. Leia knew that they were on Imperial Center. She had been to Imperial Center once with her Uncle Bail Organa, but that was a long time ago. But she had never been to the prison blocks.
As they walked past a hallway, a shadowy figure looked out at them then turned and walked away.
"Commander I have permission to take the two newest prisoners with me to the palace. The Emperor wants to see them."
"Yes ma'am!" the Commander said opening the cellblock.
Kelista stepped inside.
Leia and Alyssa looked up at the tall older woman. Kelista motioned for them to be quiet. "Come with me," she said.
The two young girls followed Kelista out of the holding cell and finally to a transport. Once they were in the clear, Kelista spoke up.
"Don't worry. I'm not going to hurt you." Kelista said removing the restraint cuffs around Leia and Alyssa's hands.
"How can we trust you?" Leia asked.
"Your father saved my life once before. I am returning him the favor by saving yours. I'm just sorry I couldn't get to your brother in time."
"Where is Luke?" Alyssa asked scared.
"I'm not sure. But I promise we'll find him. So until then, let's get you back to your family."
