The Skywalkers
Prologue
6 Years after the Return of the Jedi
She could hear blasts in the distance. Her husband was not around and she knew she didn't have time. Without wasting another minute, she grabbed her 4 year old daughter, who was holding a little Rebel stuffed toy, really tightly on her little hands, not understanding why her mother was so worried and acted liked that.
Looking at her small daughter, she kissed her cheek:
"Everything will be okay sweetheart." she said while she ran towards the middle of the forest to the place where her husband and her had already planned if something went wrong.
Reaching the hiding place, she opened and put her daughter inside.
"Lara, sweetheart, you will be a good girl and stay quiet here. Okay" she said to the scared little girl, who nodded with tears rolling down her cheeks. "You will not leave this place until daddy arrive. Do you understand?"
The little girl nodded to her mother.
With tears in her eyes, she kissed her daughter, knowing that probably it was the last time she would do it.
"Mommy and Daddy loves you very much. We will always be with you." she said trying no to cry in front of her "Now stay quiet" and looking one last time to her precious little girl, she closed the door and hid the place, running away.
She didn't know how many miles she ran, when she face an Empire soldier
"Where is she?" he asked
"You will never find out" she said pulling her light saber
"Give it up, Mara" he said "Your husband is not here and deep inside you still one of us, remember?"
"I do. But not anymore"
"Your daughter will be ours. Give it up. Your Jedi husband will never reach in time to save her and you"
"We will see about that" Mara said and she started to block the blasts with her light saber, but deep inside she knew there was only one way to make sure her daughter was save. There was no way out.

Minutes turned to hours. Little Lara was still in the hiding place, hungry, cold and scared. She wanted her mommy and her daddy. She heard voices outside and started crying. Suddenly the door opened and a couple appeared
"I told you I heard crying. There is a little girl here" the woman said.
"Daddy" she cried
"Oh come here sweetheart. What are you doing here all alone? Where are your parents?"
"Tina, we don't have time. We need to go. I still hear blasts in the distance" her husband said.
"We can't live her, Kent" Tina said
"We can't take her. What about her parents?"
"They're problem dead." she told him "Look at her. The poor thing is scare"
Looking at the little girl, Kent sigh. He couldn't leave a small child alone, in the middle of the forest
"Come on, before is to late"
"Don't worry sweetheart, we will take care of you" Tina said while they run away, taking the little girl with them.

"Mara! Lara" Luke called. "R2! Can your sensors find them?"
R2 beeping indicating that the answer was negative.
He kept running towards the hidden place, when he spot a lifeless body
"No!" he scream and ran towards his wife body. He hold her tightly while tears fall down his cheeks. "Lara!" and ran to the place where he thought his daughter was hidden but found the place empty. He looked around, stepping on a small toy. Lara's favorite one: His Red 5 stuffed rebel toy during the time he blew up the first death star. Picking it up and hold that toy closer to him. He knew his daughter was life, he felt it
"I will find out. Daddy will find you" he promised to himself.
