Wild Space – Rebel Command Ship

Everyone on the Alliance High Command were awaiting word from the Executor. They had decided to deploy the fighter craft in case the Executor should launch her fighters and fire upon them with their weapons. The comm. officer informed Gen. Madine that there was an incoming message for them.

"Patch it through." He said.

A holographic image of Adm. Piett formed before him.

"This is Adm. Piett of the Super Star Destroyer Executor. Whom do I have the privilege of speaking to?"

"This is Gen. Madine of the Alliance High Command Admiral."

"Madine, I can't believe it's you! I was told that you had been killed in the line of duty. It's good to see you again."

"It's good to see you to Admiral. Now what's all this about?"

"Lord Vader has come up with a plan to finally rid the galaxy of the Empire and the Emperor in a single attack. He want's to know if you and the Alliance will want to involve in it."

"How do I know that I can trust not only you, but Darth Vader as well?"

"You can trust me on this Crix, he want's to put an end and restore the galaxy the way it use to be. And he's going to be Jedi with him for this to work."

"Wait! I thought Commander Skywalker and his brother were the only Jedi around! How can this be?!"

"I have no idea yet Crix. But knowing Lord Vader, he always has something planned out."

"I hope you're right on this Firmus. When does Vader plan to be here then?"

"Hopefully not too much longer. I better get off of here in case he is trying to get in touch now. Looking forward to seeing you in person again."

"Same here."

After the comm. was turned off, Gen. Madine informed the rest of the High Command of Vader's arrival and that they should be ready to hear what he has to say and that there will be more Jedi with him. They are hoping that this isn't a trap, for everyone would either be caught or killed!

Hyperspace – Enroute to Wild Space

Han was giving it all he had to get his ship to the coordinates that Anakin had provided him. He was hoping to get some alone time with Leia, but with the training that her and her brother were going through, it didn't look like he would get to be near her soon. He then left the cockpit to see what they were doing in the main area of the ship.

He saw that both Brian and Leia had their Lightsabers out, and were going through some practice drills against each other. He sat next to Ahsoka and watched the siblings go against one another. Leia was able to hold her own, but Brian had the advantage of the years of training he had received. It looked like he was taking it easy on her, but would then surprise her with disarming her once more.

"Look sis, hold your saber up higher since you're not that tall. It'll work better for you." Brian said with sweat running down his face.

"Listen to your brother you should, for he learned from training on how to use different techniques. Hmm." Yoda said to Leia.

Leia thought about it, and raised her Lightsaber higher, and found it was easier to block her brother's attacks much better. This put a smile on her face, then it dropped once their father come in. They then started the drills once again, but not being able to flip over each other made it more difficult for them. They drilled for another hour and then called it quits.

"Not too bad for a beginner Leia. Keep up with the drills that aunt Ahsoka and Master Yoda came up for you, and you'll get the hang of it soon." Brian said with a smile on his face.

"Thanks. I better get myself cleaned up now." She said before giving her father a dirty look, and heading to her cabin.

"Ani, she'll come around. Just give her time." Padme said to him.

"I hope she can forgive me Padme, but with what I had done over the years, I'm not sure anyone could forgive me." Anakin said in a dejected voice through his mask.

"Skyguy, I'm sure she'll come around. Just be there for her." Ahsoka told him.

"Sir, there's something that you should know." Han said to Anakin.

"What is that Captain Solo."

"I would like to know if it's alright if I can start a courtship with Leia once this is done." Han said before he lost his nerve.

"Of course you can Han. Anakin and I would love that very much. Isn't that right Ani." Padme said.

"I can't think of a better person than you Solo. I have plenty of lackeys from all over the galaxy that thought by marrying into an influential family, they thought they would be in power. I would rather have someone like you to be with her for the two of you would keep each other in check." Anakin told Han.

Chewie started to laugh for he had told the exact same thing to Han not too long ago while on Hoth. Brian welcomed Han into the family, but warned him about the type of family he was getting involved with. Han just laughed at him. Yoda and Ahsoka smiled for they knew through the Force that the two of them would have children one day that would be strong in the Force. They weren't sure about Brian's future, for it was always in motion. Hopefully he would find a young woman, and start a family himself.
