Hello, everyone! I'd like to just put some side notes, I'm sure you've realized by now that when something is written in italic, it's a force thought but it could be a memory like in the last chapter. Now, when something is written within quotes,
/"like this," it is said outloud and thought through the force. However, when something is written like this, "hello, Luke." It is just ment to emphasize.
Also, I know that after Luke escaped Cloud City, Vader called out to him in the force and his voice was the iconic mechanical voice, however I don't think that really made sense since the force is something of the living not something computers could
/influence so that's why Leia heard the 'unfamiliar' voice say My Son and will continue to hear only that voice through the force.
Enjoy!
This could be how she had managed to remember her mother, the reason why where so many had failed, she could win. She was good with emotions, concealing them, making others feel them and rememebering them. She'd had this ability since she could remember
/and this ability was in some cases the very reason why she could remember. She knew it made no sense to recall someone she'd never see, but it made quite the difference when she knew, when she could insinctyly feel, that the
/person she'd never forget was her mother. A sad, lonely beautiful figure who's face she could remember in detail. Luke couldn't remember their mother, but she could and she wished she could of somehow-
Leia's thoughts were interrupted as a box was abruptly placed on top of another,
"This should help. Enough to last you a couple weeks of training..."
Leia looked around melancholy,
"I was told to take the largest ship, but that may attract too much attention."
Han leaned against the wall looking at Leia in awe,
"The Falcon does have quite the reputation..."
Leia looked up at Han through her lashes,
"That's the understatement of the century, Flyboy."
Han smirked at her statement and then looked around before saying,
"You know, you're walking right into the devil's lair."
"The emperor may have a large presence with the imperial military but Mon Montha has contacted the Queen of Naboo, she is in support of the Rebellion. She herself will see that my landing get clearance."
Han nodded and pulled her into him,
"Stay safe."
Leia smiled as once again she savored the emotions flowing in the air before they were disrupted by a cold presence. Leia stood frozen in Han's arms as realization dawned on her, Vader was near by.
Leia, Princesss Leia.
Han felt Leia shiver and looked down at her with worry just as she spoke through her teeth.
The unfamiliar voice rang vibrantly through Leia,
"Vader,"
It seems you could be just as capable as Skywalker, even without training— after all, you are his sister.
There was a pause and the faceless voice continued.
I know of your exact location on Endor, along with the rest of the fleet... I could just as easily send out an attack before you even knew it.
Leia pursed her lips,
"What do you want?"
To meet. I have your brother in my possession.
"My brother is dead. You are not as honorable as I thought."
Perhaps, but I assure you his body is in my possession, if you wish to retrieve it-
"How can I be sure you won't attack? It could be a trap."
I am giving you a warning, am I not?
Leia looked up to find Han looking at her confused and terrified. Leia's eyebrows knitted and her eyes closed as she spoke silently, only through the force,
I will go to collect my brothers corpse, but not at your convenience and beware Vader for when I'm prepared, I will collect yours along with his.
There was a no silence that indicated Vader hadn't disregarded Leia's threat before continuing,
There is a lake inbetween this base and the Ewok village you are in, be there at nightfall. Alone.
Han shook Leia in his embrace, her color returning,
"Hey, what's going on?"
Leia murmured through her thin lips, afraid to be heard,
"Vader knows we're here. We must evacuate everyone."
"But how did he-?"
Leia shook her head, her kind hair falling whirling around her,
"He can feel when I'm near..."
Han looked incredulously at Leia, his eyes opening wide in fear,
"Leave then, I'll see everyone off but you have to leave for Naboo before the ruckus."
Leia was about to speak, but nodded, and held onto Han tightly.
Han tightened his grip on her, squeezing her a bit tighter and resting his chin softly a top her head. They both sighed in unison and loosened their grips looking at each other in silence before finally letting go.
Han moved to the controls,
"I'll set the coordinates, all you have to do is request landing permission and carfully set the ship, if you can't just try setting up the automatic landing but only once you have permission to land."
Leia nodded,
"Alright."
Just as Han was about to leave through the shuttle door he turned back and called to Leia,
"May the force be with you."
••••Author's Note••••
Welp?
Sorry about the large side note, figured I'd write it down first so you guys didn't finish readingand had to re read it, hope it helped.
That was sort of my take on why Leia could remember her mother mixed with what Lucas said. I really do think that Leia remembered through emotions, just like she said in the movie, why Luke didn't have that ability I have no idea it maybe cus he had otherabilities
or maybe the fact that females tend to develop faster in a way. That's open for discussion.
Please don't forget to leave a review and let me know how I'm doing with character development. Also, if you have any particular scene you'd like me to 'cover'please let me know I'm open to any ideas you may have!
Thank you so much for the amount of favorites, follows and reviews, I'm so thankful to all of you.
Happy Easters Day!
