Han stalked across the winter terrain. He was not allowed a tauntaun, for they were all 'warming up' and he had left the princess out in the snow in the first place, so he should have to risk his life to save hers.
Her life is not more important than mine. Han angrily thought as he continued to trudge against the strong blasting wind.
He turned around and gazed down the endless sheet of white that he had just spent two hours crossing.
"Damn girl." He muttered and then angrily huffed as he made his way towards….well, he didn't quite know where he was going. "I don't even know where the hell I'm going!!" He screamed, frustrated out of his mind. "Why are you so stupid Solo???" He ran a hand through his hair, and then turned around in frustration.
Man what I would do just to see her face… Frustrated, he angrily kicked the snow and then started forwards again. Wait is…is that…is that that rock I shoved??
He ran towards the rock as fast as he could.
The sooner I get the princess, then the sooner I can get out of here!!
"Any signs of life, General?" Chewie asked as he watched Reeikan take a scan of the planet.
"Hold on…" He said, as he focused onto a small dot.
"Is that Han?"
The General glared at Chewbacca.
Guess I shouldn't have asked him if it was Cub at first…I should have asked him about Leia to start with. After what Cub did, I bet that Reeikan wants him out of here faster than the Millennium Falcon.
"I mean…her highnessness?"
The general glared at him again.
"I mean…Her Highness?"
Cub is really rubbing off on me. The giant wookiee thought as he turned away and scratched his head.
"No, I'm afraid that there is too much wind and snow to determine if the sensors are really picking up any life forms, or just…objects carelessly left around." He leaned back in his chair and went to quit out of it, when Chewie put a large hairy hand on the Generals.
"Hold on. What's that?" Chewie pointed to the screen.
The General gazed curiously at the picture as he zoomed into the screen. "Adjust focus." He told Mon Mothma, and she flicked a switch. The picture flickered on the screen, and then adjusted itself. "Ah. There we go."
"What do you see?" Mon Mothma asked.
"Interesting…." He zoomed into it. "It looks like….it looks like a…a camp."
"A camp?"
"Camp?"
"Yes, and there's a tauntaun next to it. Well, the remnants of a tauntaun."
"That's Leia's vest!"
"How can you tell?"
"By the rebel markings. See?" Chewie highlighted the arrows on the chest of the vest.
"Oh, this just keeps getting better and better." Reeikan smiled, and moved closer to the screen.
"What?" Mon Mothma asked, also getting closer to the picture.
"See these?" He pointed to the two sleeping bags.
"Yes? Sleeping bags."
"They're put together…"
"Together?"
"Yes, so that two people can sleep in it together."
"Oh." Mon Mothma said quietly, stepping away from the monitor.
"Oh god, Han what else have you done???" Chewie said under his breath, while shaking his head.
Han Solo was having trouble moving the rock. "Come on! BUDGE!" Finally, it started to move, and he managed to slip through. The fire was dying out, and he looked in the back for Leia. "Leia??" He asked, and then sighed. He was about to turn around when he saw something shiny catch his eye. He looked down at his feet and saw Leia sprawled across the floor, her face deathly white. "LEIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" He screamed, and then bent down next to her.
No! No! No! NO! NO!!He picked up her head in his hands. He put his head down to her chest and listened intently for a heartbeat.
Come on! Where are you??
Practically silent, he heard one soft beat.
Then, he felt it. He could feel his heart searing with pain and he could feel the hot tears falling down his face. You don't show emotions Solo! You don't…
"Damn it…what have you done, Solo?"
