Author Note: Ok guys, before I carry on with the story, I'd just like to make one thing clear. If any of you have read the review I received earlier from a certainMicheal Martinez, then you'll see why I'm so mad.

Can I just say that if you're going to write stuff like that...at least check the facts first! There are perfectly good reasons why I did all those things...and if you'de wait until a little further into the story, they'd be explained...but don't go telling me that what I'm writting is wrong when you don't even know why I've written what I have...and if you don't like stories that stray from the books or the films...then what the hell are you doing on fanfiction?

And if you don't wanna read my story any more, just stop reading...don't tell me that your gonna stop reading...coz that hurts more than anything else...

Ok, thats my little moan over for now, but if anyone wants to hear my complete views on why that review made me so mad, then don't hesitate to ask, coz I'd love to get it all off my chest...rather than keeping it bottled up.

Anyways, sorry about that, but I just wanted to make my point. Now I think I have, so lets get on with the story shall we?

At last, after what seemed like hours, they reached the base and Luke and Chewbacca wrenched open the large steel doors wide enough for them all to get through.

Once they were all inside, the doors closed again and plunged them all into darkness until they all pulled out several light sticks that Mara had found in her ship.

They each cracked them and held them up so that the hanger they were standing in lit up. There, in the far corner sat a single ship, like the one Luke had almost been crushed in so long ago.

They walked across the hanger, their footsteps echoing eerily, and none of them dared speak, for fear of being heard.

Chewbacca pulled open the next door and went through first. He hastily backed out a moment later as angry shouts grew louder. Luke tried to push the door shut, but the Yuuzhan Vong guards had got there first and burst through the door, staffs raised above their heads. Almost immediately, one fell to the floor, then another as Leia and Mara shot at them. A moment later, the next few had no arms as Luke also joined in, cutting them down with his saber. Finally only one remained, and Chewbacca grabbed it round the neck. There was a loud crack and it fell to the floor, it's neck broken.

Ryoo and Pooja looked at the others, impressed at their skills. Each of them had their own unique way of fighting, and together, they were virtually unstoppable. Leia could see that they wanted to be a part of the action aswell, so she delved into her pack and tossed them a pair of pistols that she had found at Padme's place on Tatooine. The two looked slightly worriedly at the weapons in their hands, but soon enough, both had tucked them in their belts and were following the others down the passage again.

After another long trek down a desserted corridor, the group emerged into a large ice arena that Luke and Leia had never seen before. It was newly built, obviously by the Vongs, and yet it was desserted.

"Whats up, Luke?" Pooja whispered as they made their way around the top of the arena, weaving between the blocks of ice that served as seats.

"Its too quiet...We should have met some more guards by now," he replied, looking all around the arena. As though echoing his thoughts, there was a grinding sound and a large door down in the main arena slid open.

The group ducked behind the nearest ice seats and watched as a prisoner was dragged into the centre of the arena.

"Is it her?" Ryoo asked, but when Leia looked closer, she saw that it was a Yuuzhan Vong. He had been stripped of his armour and weapons, but looked no less awful. She shook her head and felt a collective sigh of relief from the others.

A moment later, doors all around the edges opened up and Yuuzhan Vong spectators began to file in. Luke directed the group over to a tiny little cave bit which they all hid in to watch, right at the very top of the stand.

"What are they doing?" Pooja asked as they watched a large Wompa enter the arena, growling and snarling. Luke knew exactly what was going on, and it was something he didn't want to see.

"It's an execution," he told the others. "We should leave...now."

But they were trapped in their hiding place, and there was nothing they could do but listen to the screams of the prisoner, and the cheers of the crowd.

Once or twice, Leia would peer over the top of the ice block to see if the spectacle was close to finishing, but if anything, it seemed to fill up more and more every time she looked. Chewbacca was getting fidgety, because he was cramped in a tight space and was dying to stretch his legs, and Luke and Mara were having a whispered argument about something.

"Oh, I wish Han was here," Leia muttered to herself as she peered over the block again. Suddenly there was a loud cry...and then silence as everybody in the stands turned their way. Even the Wompa stopped munching for a moment and peered up.

Leia dropped back down and sat flat against the ice, hoping that no one had seen her. Then she looked around for the source of the noise.

Chewie had been aching so much that he had stretched a leg out, rather sharply and accidentaly kicked Ryoo in the face. Now she was clutching her nose, which was bleeding heavily. Leia motioned for them all to be silent as she turned and peered back over the ice block, hoping that the Vongs had gone back to watching the arena.

Unfortunately, as she peered up, she came face to face with a Vong, who gave a great war cry and swung his staff at her. She ducked and managed to roll to one side as the others pulled out their weapons. Now, they had no choice but to fight, and it was a battle that Leia didn't think that they could win, no matter how good the others may have been at fighting.

Six against at least two hundred wasn't exactly anything to get their hopes up about. But then, like Han had always said 'It ain't over till the fat hutt sings!' and the 'fat hutt' certainly hadn't sung yet.
