"Wake up!" Darth Vader yelled and slapped Luke. Luke cried out and was brought back to consciousness. "Move it!" Luke was pulled up by Vader and was forced to walk. When he stepped out of the shuttle he saw hundreds of hundreds of stormtroopers and imperial guards. Darth Vader, followed by the Emperor, walked down a long corridor. They soon reached a door and Vader punched in a code and roughly shoved Luke in once the door opened.
"Some dad you are," Luke said once the door closed. He looked around his cell, well it wasn't really a cell actually. There was a large king size bed in the center with a fresher in another room. Luke went over to the bed to meditate and to think of a plan.
MEANWHILE
"An Imperial Fleet just came out of hyperspace," Leia told Obi-Wan and Yoda, "we will be sending you two off on the first shuttle to the rendezvous point. Then we will come up with a plan to rescue Luke once we are there." Obi-Wan was going to argue that he didn't want to bring her into this, but there was no time. She led them to a large shuttle filling with troops and supplies. "It shouldn't take more then two hours to get there," Leia told them, "be careful."
"You to," Obi-Wan said and Yoda just nodded. Yoda and Obi-Wan sat down and remained silent. They were both thinking about a way to rescue Luke.
"We must not bring Princess Organa into this," Obi-Wan said. "If anything happens to Luke she will be the last of the Skywalker line."
"Yes, to dangerous it is," Yoda agreed. "Later on, meditate on this I will."
For a while they remained silent Obi-Wan was so upset.
/Why did I let my guard down for that one second, one second and Vader could be dead and Luke would never have to Vader was his father./
Obi-Wan shifted uneasily in his chair. Being around these people brought back painful memories of the Clone Wars. And those memories brought back memories of Anakin and Mustafar. He could see Anakin catch fire, Anakin Skywalker died in that fire, and like a phoenix Darth Vader was reborn from the ashes.
"Must not dwell on the past," Yoda said and Obi-Wan grinned.
/Sometimes I wish he wasn't so good/ Obi-Wan thought.
"Sometime put up your shields you should," Yoda said grinning.
"Yea…I knew that," Obi-Wan muttered embarrassed.
"Try sleeping you should," Yoda said. Obi-Wan just realized he hasn't slept in a couple days.
"That may be a good idea," Obi-Wan said and rested his head on the wall and fell into and uneasy slumber.
Obi-Wan didn't know if he was dreaming or not but he was in a large room on a nice bed.
"Obi-Wan?" He heard a voice ask.
"Luke? Thank the Masters your alright!" Obi-Wan said.
"Obi-Wan I'm scared," Luke said, but Obi-Wan knew that he wasn't scared, he was frightened beyond all measure.
"It's alright Luke, don't worry you'll be fine," Obi-Wan said in a sympathetic voice.
"It's not me I'm worried about, I just worried I may injure others!" Luke said.
"What do you mean?" Obi-Wan asked.
"What if I give away the Rebel Base, or something you mentioned something about the Emperor being able to probe your mind and get information. I could endanger the entire rebel base!" Luke said, he was really upset.
"Luke, it's alright I will help you build up your mental shields," Obi-Wan said. After about ten minutes of practice Obi-Wan's connection with Luke faded then re-established.
"Excellent Luke," Obi-Wan said. "Now I'm going try a lot harder," Obi-Wan focused all his thoughts on going into Luke's mind. He barely went in before he was roughly thrown out. "That was outstanding Luke! You are just as talented as your father was…shit." Obi-Wan let the comment about Anakin slip.
After an awkward silence "Can you tell me about him, my father before he became Vader?" Luke asked.
"He is a great man, your father, he is kind and had a great sense of humor. He is pretty much the exact opposite of Vader," Obi-Wan said reminiscing.
"You say is…don't you mean was all those things?" Luke asked confused and Obi-Wan sighed.
"I still believe that deep down, Anakin Skywalker is still there," Obi-Wan said.
"You really think so?" Luke said shocked.
"Yes, yes I do," Obi-Wan said. "Your father saved many lives and was a very kind man, I cannot believe that one day he could just give it up."
"Well if you still believe there is good in him, so do I," Luke said definitely.
"I am honored that you believe that. I must go now Luke, but I will be here for you. We will rescue as soon as we land.
"Where are you?" Luke asked.
"Master Yoda and I are with the Rebellion, the Empire found the Hoth base, and now we are headed to the new one," Obi-Wan said.
"Be careful," Luke said.
"You too," Obi-Wan said. "May the Force be with you Luke, don't worry I will always be with you!"
"May the Force be with you too Obi-Wan," Luke said losing his confidence. The connection faded and Obi-Wan awoke from his slumber.
"How is he?" Yoda asked.
"Afraid, but I think he is doing a little better," Obi-Wan said and the shuttle approached a tiny planet that Obi-Wan never heard of.
