Chapter 3:
The ramp of the Millennium Falcon slowly lowered. Lando leaned up against the wall behind the corner, blaster ready. The clank of booted feet could be heard as they came up the ramp—only one. Chewbacca moaned softly from the other side of the doorway, and nodded towards the ramp. Lando nodded, tightly, and spun around to face the ramp, blaster aimed. The bulkhead shook as he was suddenly smashed against the wall. Chewbacca roared, and fired at the intruder, but the energy dissipated around him. The weapon was twisted upward, sharply, and Chewie was thrown backwards. A squad of stormtroopers swarmed past Vader, blaster rifles trained on Lando and Chewie. "Secure the rest of the ship, but leave the cockpit to me. Take anyone you find to the detention block, and prep them for interrogation. Fit any droids you find with restraining bolts, and hold them as well."
The stormtrooper captain saluted, smartly. "It will be done, milord."
Vader turned and swept down the corridor to the cockpit, sensing that both his son and the rebel princess were there. "Open the door, Princess. This time, there is no escape."
Leia turned pale, but stood firm. "You cannot win, Vader. Even if Luke and I are taken, the Alliance will survive."
With a hiss, the door slid open, and Vader crushed Leia's blaster with a touch of the Force. "Fool girl. With my son at my side, your pitiful rebellion will crumble."
Luke bowed his head, despairingly. Leia stared at him, horror mixed with disbelief in her eyes. "Luke, he can't be serious."
Luke didn't look up, knowing what her reaction would be. "I-it's true."
"That's impossible," she snapped, but inside, she knew Vader wasn't lying, and Luke certainly wouldn't joke about something like that.
"I don't have time for your arguments, Princess." At a sign, two troopers ran up. "Take her to the detention block, and watch her closely. If she escapes, I will be….. most displeased."
"Yes, sir." As she was led away, she gave Luke one last look, one of sympathy, then the door slid shut.
Vader looked down at his son. "Rise, Luke. It is time to complete your training."
Slowly, and with a wince of pain, Luke got to his feet. "Y- yes, father. Where- where are you taking me?"
"The medical center, your injuries need to be seen to."
