Okay, I know I wrote 2 days, but I haven't had any time over. So sorry for the dely.

There are going to be some surprises in this chapter, that I hope (and pray) you will like.

So here comes chapter 7, enjoy!

Chapter 7

Leia looked at Luke with pure shock in her eyes. Not only was she shocked by what he had just done; but she had also never seen him look so angry before. It was as shocking as it was surreal. It was terrifying to see that otherwise calm and gentle Luke lose control like this. Even if she actually had been relived that he had done it; otherwise Han would probably have died.

Han, she suddenly thought. And without thinking she bent over him to see if he was all right. His eyes were shut; but he was thankfully still breathing.

"Han. Han can you hear me?" But he didn't answer. 'He must be unconscious." She thought. But at least he seemed okay. After realizing that he was going to fine she turned her attention to what was happening in the cell.

Luke was fuming, shaking with rage. He had watched the exchange between Palpatine and Han, not sure what to do. He had felt panic strike him when the Emperor had hit Han with Force lightning. But as the torture continued his feelings went from panic to anger and hate.

What happened next went so fast that Luke couldn't understand what had happened. One moment he was starting to climb to his feet, and the next Palpatine was smashed against the wall.

He had never felt like this before; the power he felt cruising through his veins was so strong that he felt himself from it. It felt good. He knew that he shouldn't fell this way about this; because deep down he knew that it was the Dark Side of the Force that was flowing through him. But he could stop himself; when he had seen Han being tortured something had snapped inside him. He wouldn't let his friends come to harm.

When he was starting to calm down a little he lowered his hands, watching the Emperor climb to his feet; with Vader's help. He seemed shaken; and that was something you don't see the Emperor be every day.

But Palpatine shaken expression didn't last very long; it change into a smile as he looked when he looked at the enraged Luke. It was what he had wanted to happen; he had just not thought that it the outburst would be so powerfully.

"Well, well young Skywalker. I must congratulate you on your turn towards our side of the Force; because that was a very good display of the Dark Side. Not even your father's first display was that good; you should be proud of yourself."

That made Luke stiff; he had done what the Emperor had wanted to do. 'I have to calm down, or he will have me right were he wants me."

Luke stayed silent, but inside he couldn't bring himself to calm down. He was still extremely upset and angry.

When Luke didn't response, Palpatine continued.

"I thought this would be harder, especially after your resistance earlier. Or maybe you have just giv…?" He taunted.

"No." Everyone was startled when Luke suddenly spoke; his voice was very serious and firm. "I have not joined you and I never will. And I will not turn to the Dark Side either. But I will also not let you hurt my friends; if you touch them again you will not live much long."

All the others gasped at his comment; they had never thought that anyone could speak like this to the Emperor. But the Emperor only laughed.

"If that anger is not of the Dark Side, then what is?"

That made Luke become quiet; and that action made the Emperor even more satisfied. Soon he would have Skywalker on his side; he had waited long for that moment. It had only been a matter of patience from his side; waiting him out. No it was time to finish it.

"You can feel it, can you? The power of the Dark Side pumping through your veins; refreshing isn't it? You can't deny that it feels good to be more powerful then anyone else. To be almost unbeatable; if you join me I will show you how to be totally unbeatable."

"Are you deaf or something; I will NEVER join you." Luke seemed to have found his voice again.

"Oh but you will. Think of the things I'm willing to offer you; I will complete your training and you will be more powerful then anyone else – except me of course. You will be even more powerful then your father."

For the first time since they had entered the room, Luke looked at his father who was standing next to his master. He hadn't moved or said a word the entire time. He was just standing there letting his master humiliate him in front of everyone in the room. Luke couldn't understand how he could be so loyal to him after all the things that had been said. He must realize that the Emperor was trying to replace him.

But Luke didn't have time to think of this now; he had other things to deal with at the moment. He let his eyes wander back to his real problem.

"I don't want that power; you can't feed me that crap, because I won't fall for it. I will never abandon my friends."

Now Palpatine tried a new angle.

"Ah, your friends. You care about them a lot; and that is what makes you weak at the moment. Your compassion is you weakness. Just what would you do to insure there safety?"

That made Luke snap.

"Don't touch them, this is between you and me, you leave them out of this."

The Emperor just continued to smile.

"I can't resist using them; they mean so much to you that you would do anything to ensure their safety. Your feelings for them are strong."

As he was talking Palpatine tried to read Skywalker's mind; and there he found something that he didn't expect. 'So you have more secrets inside you, but you can't hide them from me.' The Emperor thought as he continued to speak.

"Yes they are very strong; especially for…your twin. I'm I right?"

Luke's eyes widened. 'How had he found out?'

Palpatine was very happy with the reaction he got from Luke.

"I can see that you have kept that information to yourself."

Luke broke eye contact with the Emperor and looked around the room. Everyone was looking at him; shock visible in their eyes. But the biggest shock that he felt coming through the force came from his father; how Luke immediately turned. He was leaning against the wall for support, obviously in shock from finding out that he had another child.

Luke found himself unable to speak. His secret that he so badly had wanted to hide was out. Did the Emperor know who it was? As if reading his thoughts again the Emperor continued.

"Would you like to tell, or should I?"

'HE KNEW!' Luke was panicking; he could get a word out of his mouth or even move.

"I guess that means that you want me to tell." The Emperor said after few seconds. "I'm honored. So -"He said turning to the rest of the room. "- you are probably wondering who it can be. The person in question is actually in this room, and is a very close friend of young Skywalker here."

As the Emperor was talking to Luke, Leia felt that Han was starting to move.

"Han can you hear me?"

He let out a gasp and a few seconds later he opened his eyes.

"Hello your highness, you're a nice sight to wake up to."

"You' okay?" Leia sounded concerned.

"I've been worse." He said as he sat up. "Like to fill me in on what's been happening since I passed out?"

Leia told him about Luke and what the Emperor had said and done. Just as she finished they heard something that made them both turn their eyes towards the Emperor, then Luke and then back to each other again.

"Luke has a twin." Han whispered to Leia. "He failed to mention that."

Leia looked just as surprised.

"Wonder how it is."

They stopped talking when the Emperor said:

"- you are probably wondering who it can be. The person in question is actually in this room, and is a very close friend of young Skywalker here. They have been friends for a couple of years now. And I must say that there are some resemblances; because they both have equally big mouths. That has been show today.

"I'm talking about you; Han Solo."

Fin.

Okay, big shock everyone. I know that you all thought that Leia's name would come up, but this is more fun (at least I hope it is fun for you). I know that Han is much older then Luke in the original trilogy, but this isn't the original trilogy, it's my version. So just pretend that they are the same age.

I hope you don't hang me for this.

Please review and tell me what you think of this turn of event.
