Padme stared at the blue blade as Luke practiced the drill when Obi-Wan sat down next to her looking very tired.

"You okay?" Luke asked.

"Obi-Wan?" Padme whispered.

"I just felt a disturbance in the Force. As if, millions of people cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced." The three of them sat in silence for a moment, the only noise being the droids and Chewie's game of chess. "You better get back to your exercises." Obi-Wan said and Luke obeyed, igniting the lightsaber and trying to block the yet to come bolts. Just then, Han came back with a cocky smile on his face.

"Well you don't have to worry about those Imperials anymore. Told you I'd out run them." Han smiled. He was met with silence. "Well don't everyone thank me at once." He said and watched Luke as he missed a bolt and Obi-Wan instructed him. "What you need is a good blaster by your side." He said.

"You don't believe in the Force, do you?" Luke asked as he deactivated the lightsaber.

"Kid, I've been from one side of this galaxy to another and nothing I've seen can make me believe there's an all-powerful Force controlling my destiny." Han said. Obi-Wan smiled and told Luke to try again with a helmet on with the blast shield down. Luke complained he couldn't see, which Obi-Wan responded to that his eyes can deceive him. Luke tried and got blasted on the first try, swinging the lightsaber blindly.

"Stretch out your feelings." Obi-Wan instructed as Han laughed. Luke took a deep breath and tried again, not missing a single bolt. "See, you can do it." Obi-Wan smiled.

"Nice job, Luke." Padme smiled.

"I call that luck." Han said.

"In my experience there is no such thing as luck." Obi-Wan countered as the sound signaling that they arrived was heard and Han and Chewie went to the cockpit to land.

"You know, I did feel something." Luke said.

"That's the Force." Padme smiled when the ship shook.

"What's going on?" Luke asked as he caught the falling Padme. No one had an answer so Luke, Obi-Wan and Padme ran to the cockpit where Luke asked the same question.

"I don't know, Kid. Everything's right except no Alderaan."

"What do you mean?" Padme asked.

"It can't just be gone!" Luke protested.

"I'm telling you, Kid, it ain't there." Han insisted.

"Destroyed by the Empire." Obi-Wan said. Han began to protest when a TIE fighter came out of nowhere and flew towards what looked like a moon. But as they neared the moon to get the fighter, Obi-Wan and Padme realized it wasn't a moon. "It's a space station." Obi-Wan said. Han protested again when Padme cut in,

"It can't be anything else and how else could a fighter be out here unless there was a base?" Han agreed but insisted they could catch the fighter when they got caught in a tractor beam. "Nice one, fly boy." Padme muttered.

"Now what?" Han asked.


Padme stayed absolutely still. She was in a smuggling compartment with Luke and Threepio. Han, Obi-Wan, Chewie and Artoo were in two other compartments, one on each side of them. Padme could hear footsteps above them when they died down. Luke lifted the opening and they all got out.

"Good thing you had these compartments." Luke commented.

"I use them for smuggling. Never thought I'd smuggle myself in them." Han said.

"We got to get out of here." Padme said.

"We'll fight our way through." Han suggested.

"There are alternatives to fighting." Obi-Wan said and convinced Han and Luke to take out the men who came in. They did so and Han called down to the Stormtroopers for help. Han and Luke took them out quickly and took their armor. As fast as they could, Han, Chewie, Threepio, Artoo, Obi-Wan and Padme made their way to the door that led to the patrol room above the ship. Luke distracted them and as soon as the door opened, Han and Chewie killed all the men inside. Luke hurried in and locked the door.

"Between your blasting and his howling, it's no wonder the whole station doesn't know we're here!" Luke said.

"Bring'em on." Han said, "I'd prefer a straight out fight then to all this sneaking around."

"Stop." Padme said as Obi-Wan asked Artoo to find the source of power for the tractor beam. Threepio explained where the power was and Obi-Wan thought it over before saying,

"I don't think you all can help. I must go alone."

"Fine by me." Han said, leaning back in his chair.

"I want to come with you." Luke said.

"We all have a destiny, Luke." Obi-Wan said, "I must follow mine as you must follow yours." Luke nodded and let go. Padme gave Luke a comforting hug, giving Obi-Wan one last worried glance. Obi-Wan nodded and left. Chewie growled causing Han to say,

"You said it. Where'd you two pick up that crazy old man?"

"Ben's a great man." Luke insisted.

"He's greater then you." Padme smirked at Han. Before the captain could reply, Artoo beeped.

"What is it?" Luke asked.

"I'm not sure, sir." Threepio responded, "He keeps saying 'I found her' and 'she's here.'"

"Who?" Luke asked.

"Princess Leia." Threepio answered.

"The princess?" Luke gasped. Padme gasped too. Her two children in the same place without knowing who they truly were. But her heart broke when she heard Threepio say,

"I'm afraid she's scheduled to be terminated."

"I'm saving her." Padme said as Luke tried to convince Han and Chewie to help. She grabbed her cloak and was about to open the door when Han agreed. She followed Luke's lead and put her cloak's hood up to hide her face and then put on electronic handcuffs. Luke led her while Han led Chewie to an elevator. We're coming Leia. Padme thought, Hold on.
