Chapter 4: School Dinners
The dreaded school bell rang for lunch. School children rushed out of their classrooms like animals in a stampede. They were either racing to their pack lunch boxes or to be first in the queue for the canteen.
Behind them, slumped two Skywalker twins. Usually it was them leading the pack, but not today.
They slowly made their way into the canteen. The smell made Leia feel queasy; however, she was determined to see this through.
I won't give my parents the satisfaction of winning. Leia thought proudly to herself.
Luke smirked; she's so stubborn, he thought as he passed his sister a lunch tray. Then they both joined the end of the queue.
They both stood there dawdling at the back. Luke was daydreaming, in an attempt to forget his inevitable fate that waited at the front of the queue. While Leia was desperately trying to hide behind her tray, the thought of being recognised was to embarrassing to even imagine.
"Well, well, well, look what we have here. Her Royal Highness at the back of the lunch queue." A smug voice said coming from behind her.
Oh give me a break she moaned to herself as see turned round to see who the voice belonged too.
Behind Leia stood a scruffy, dirty looking thirteen-year-old boy with a massive grin on his grubby face.
He continued smugly, "So tell me, what is her majesty doing at the back of line?"
Leia could feel her anger growing. This boy was the only person who could hit her close to the mark.
"I felt like slumming it, with likes of you Solo." Leia snapped back.
"Well Princess," He said with a smirk. "The likes of me push in." With that Han cut in front of Leia.
Luke snapped out of his daydream when he felt Leia's temper building from behind him. Oh no, here we go, he whined to himself.
"Why you low-down, stuck-up, half- witted, scruffy-looking nerfherder. How dare you push in... in front of me!" Leia yelled.
"Hey who's scruffy-looking?" Han said with a big grin as he playfully put Luke in a headlock and messed up his hair.
"Hey Kid. Is she always like that?"
"Worse," Luke replied making both boys laugh. Leia look angrily at her brother.
With all the commotion neither of the twins noticed they were now at the front of the queue.
There stood the rather large, big nosed, Dinner Lady. Both Leia and Luke gulped.
"Next!" The woman bellowed.
"I think that's you Luke," Leia said pushing her brother forward.
"Where are my manners, ladies first." Luke said as he motioned for Leia to go in front.
"Lady! That's questionable!" Han laughed.
"Fine!" Leia said clenching her fists as she stormed up to the counter.
Leia took a second to look at the unappetising food in front of her.
"I thought there was a choice for dinner, but I can see only sausage and mash," she said questioning the Dinner Lady.
"That's the choice, take it or leave it," the Dinner Lady replied.
Leia sighed "I'll take it."
"Next," the Dinner Lady yelled. Up stepped a nervous Luke.
"The same please." Luke quietly said.
The lady smiled, "aw... aren't you a well-mannered boy?"
Luke grinned and looked over at Leia who just rolled her eyes.
The Dinner Lady smiled "I'll give you a little extra."
Luke's smiled dropped and he could hear Leia laughing in the background.
"Anything else?" The Diner Lady asked.
"Can I have some gravy with that please?"
"Sure one lump or two?" She replied.
"On second thoughts, no thank you." Luke said as he grabbed the tray and moved off.
The twins found a table in the corner of the canteen so they couldn't be seen.
"I don't think I can eat this Luke." Leia said pushing her plate away.
"It can't be as bad as it looks," Luke said taking a mouthful.
"I take it back its worse." Luke said trying not to be sick.
Both twins looked down at their plates miserable.
"Hey sweetheart, are you going eat that?" Han Solo asked taking a seat next to Leia.
"Help yourself... I hope it poisons you." She replied giving him the plate.
"Aw... you would miss me really. Anyway why the heck are you two eating school dinners? I thought mommy did you lunches for you?" Han asked as he started munching into Leia's lunch.
"She's punishing us for getting a bad report," Luke sighed.
"It's all her fault," Leia moaned.
"What? It's your mom's fault you got a bad report?" Han asked.
"No laser brain! Miss Brambles." Leia answered.
"Leia, Miss Brambles didn't make us do all those bad things." Luke said.
"I know that, but she exaggerated the whole thing."
"Exaggerated! I don't think so," Han said with a slight laugh.
"So you're going to do what? Punish Miss Brambles?" Luke said sarcastically.
"Exactly, it's about time she was taught a lesson." Leia replied both Han and Luke raised their eyebrows.
"You're not serious?" Luke nervously asked.
"I've never been so serious in my life." With that Leia stood up and left the canteen.
Luke watched his sister leave dumbfounded. She can't be serious about teaching Miss Brambles a lesson? Luke asked himself.
"Um... Kid you gonna eat that?" Han asked.
Luke shook his head, then got up and chased after his sister.
