"Luke!" A voice blasted into Luke's helmet and shook him back to reality.
"Yes, yes! Han I can hear you!"
"I knew it had to be you! Listen, we need a plan, buddy. Things have gone from bad to worse for us," he said.
Luke could see what he meant. Out in front of them appeared several destroyers jumping in from hyperspace. A slightly larger one was in the lead and was spilling out TIE fighters by the dozens. They were all racing right for them.
"Okay, I think now would be a good time to make your jump," Luke said as he moved along side the Falcon. They both flipped and turned away from their pursuers.
"Yeah- great idea! That's gonna be a little hard. My nav computer is fried!" He yelled as he pulled on the controls to keep the laser hits to a minimum.
Chewie gave an update on the shields, and Han promptly yelled back to stop giving him updates. He was thinking frantically. A blind jump was a last resort, and one that usually ends in death. Still, there was a slight chance they would make a line through space without hitting anything, or anyone. He had also heard stories of gravity sinks that can tear anything apart that comes within ten parsecs, not his idea of fun. He wasn't even sure the ship could jump.
"Luke, you better get on out of here. There's no use in both of us going down. Thanks for coming back- but it's no good." Han said as a hint of sadness came over him. In his hold was enough wealth to pay his bounty and live comfortably for a while. Maybe get things in his life together again. Just the luck- he finally gets enough to completely pay of his debts, and he just can't jump away.
"Wait a minute" Luke yelled as he looped around the Falcon again, firing at several more TIE fighters that screamed past them going the opposite direction. "Just get behind me. I make the jump, you make the jump. Stay close on my tail and follow me in. The same exact course. It's simple'"
Han's thoughts raced around the idea. It was simple, but crazy. The slightest move would throw him out of Luke's wormhole. Maybe a handful of pilots could even come close to pulling it off. Han began to like the idea even more.
"You have to make it a dead ahead straight shot. Forget the rendezvous, just get us out here!" Han responded.
"I'm already working on that", Luke yelled out as more blasts came across his wings.
Overhead a large destroyer was now hovering. Han saw it and changed course. He saw on his scopes that a tractor beam was repeatedly trying to lock onto the two ships but kept missing. It was also firing its large laser cannons. The wide shafts of energy had narrowly missed them a few times.
"Brother, if we get hit with one of those, we're toast", Han muttered over to Chewie.
"It's ready!" Luke yelled out. "Get in behind me, I am going to clear a path and hit it."
"Right!" Han said.
Luke zoomed his ship in front. He turned down and away from the destroyer closing in. Ahead of him was a large array of TIE fighters waiting in formation. They all started to move towards them at once. Luke charged straight into them at full speed. His lasers came alive with bright bursts that landed on several targets instantly. The massive explosions opened a hole in the group, and Luke punched his engines to get right through it.
