As the Millennium Falcon went through the hyperspace lane heading for Hoth, its crew tried to find ways of passing the time. Han and Chewbacca did so by attending to the Falcon's controls, while Luke stood in the in the cargo hold, watching Jacen and Jaina practice their lightsaber skills. Piled onto the floor at Luke's feet were Jain and Jacen's outer brought robes.

The wins were at the center of the cargo hold, their respective lightsabers grasped in their hands and their blades illuminating the air around them. Floating around the twins were two spherical remotes, much like the ones that Obi-Wan Kenobi used to train Luke about thirty years ago. The Jedi Grandmaster's nephew and niece had round helmets with a black visor covering their entire faces the same technique that Obi-Wan used proved to be effective in training Luke, so he too used it to train his students in the ways of the Jedi.

Jaina's violet lightsaber swung through the air in time to block a stun bolt , sending it flying into the inner hull of the cargo hold. Jacen did the same with own green lightsaber, using it to block every stun bolt that the probe fired at him. The two probes spun around in the air their, firing multiple stun bolts at every moment, in hopes of hitting the Solo twins. However, Jaina and Jacen were more than capable of deflecting the stun bolts, even with the helmet blocking their vision.

Luke stood at the end of the cargo hold observing his nephew and niece apply the Force to sense when the probe droids would fire. The head of the New Jedi Order could sense the Force swirling around the twins as they deflected the stun bolts. He knew the twins were powerful in the Force, especially when they were near each other, so he allowed them to be trained as Jedi. Their training proved to be useful on mission and when they were being attacked by Imperial Stormtroopers, or bounty hunters, since they were the children of the most powerful person in the galaxy.

Still, the twins could make mistakes, even with the power of the Force. This was readily evident as Jacen swung his lightsaber to deflect a stun bolt that accidentally struck Jaina in her thigh. Jaina let out a yelp of pain as she lost her focus, making Luke to raise his hand to order the remotes to stop. After she recovered, Jaina tore off her helmet and glared at her twin brother. "Watch it Jacen!"

Jacen stopped swinging his lightsaber and took off his helmet to look at his sister. "Sorry Jaina," he sheepishly smiled. "I didn't that bolt would hit hit you."

Jaina tolled her eyes, but she soon found herself smiling, too. "Well, watch where you're deflecting, next time."

The twins were about to resume their practice, but Luke stepped forwards and said, "I think that's enough for now."

Stretching out with the Force, Luke waves his hand to deactivate the remotes before pulling them towards him and catching them in each hand. Seeing the remotes deactivated and in their uncle's hands, Jacen and Jaina sheathed their lightsaber blades before using the Force to make their robes fly into their hands. "You both did well," Luke commented before turning to Jacen and adding, "Though Jacen, you should use the Force more on where you deflect the bolt. That way, you won't end up hitting Jaina again." Luke grinned at that last sentence, much like Jaina.

Jacen gave a playful smile at his uncle. "Yes, Uncle Luke."

The Jedi trio heard the sound of footsteps approaching the cargo hold, so they turned around to see Han entering. They wondered what it was, and Han answered their unspoken question by stating, "We're approaching Hoth. You guys should come to the cockpit."

After informing them, Han turned around and headed towards the cockpit with his two kids-who were putting on their robes-and Luke following him. The four entered the cockpit to see Chewbacca at the controls, preparing the Millennium Falcon to drop out of hyperspace. "Alright, is everything ready, Chewie?" Han asked as he sat in the pilot's seat.

Chewbacca let out an affirmative growl in response to Han's question as the Jedi just stood there. A few moments passed everyone waited for the Falcon to come out of hyperspace. "Alright, coming out of hyperspace!" Han announced as he pushed the lever up.

Soon, the blue tunnel of hyperspace turned into streaks of white lights that passed by the cockpit window before turning into familiar sight of stars. With the Falcon out of hyperspace, Han proceeded to pilot his ship through the void of space until a familiar planet came into view. "There it is," Luke said, "Hoth."

The blue and white orb known as Hoth was once a hideout for the Rebel Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. The planet was covered in snow with frozen tundras and caves almost everywhere, and the planet had periodic snow storms that made it difficult to survive. Though it contained such a harsh environment, it served as a good hiding spot until the Galactic Empire discovered the Rebel's base on the planet.

"Never thought I'd come here again," Han mumbled before turning to his Wookie friend. "Chewie, give me a readout of the area. Seeing if you find anything out of place."

"Would that count?" Jaina asked as she pointed her finger.

Everyone else in the cockpit wondered what Jaina was pointing at, so hey looked ahead ot see some rubble floating in space. It appeared to be pretty far from the Falcon's position, but it was along their way to Hoth. "Bring us closer," Luke told his bother-in-law.

"On it," Han replied as he steered the Falcon close to the rubble.

As the Falcon approached the rubble, everyone stared in shock and horror to see it was not rubble, but a graveyard. Floating across space were the husks of Imperial Star Destroyers and New Republic ships with broken equipment and technology surrounding them. The Millennium Falcon came close to the graveyard of ships, and its crew noticed destroyed Tie-Fighters and X-Wings with their pilots simply hovering close. Chewbacca let out a low roar, full of sorrow, which Han replied with, "I know Chewie. It's pretty bad."

"What happened here?" Jacen thought aloud, shocked at what he and everyone else were seeing. "Was there a battle?"

"Looks like it," Jaina answered as she inspected some of the destroyed fighters. "There's some blaster marks on those fighters."

Though it was a sound observation, Luke said with some uncertainty, "I don't know. I sense something is wrong."

Before any could comment any further, the controls started to let out a loud high-pitched beep. Han immediately turned towards the controls and realized the sound was coming from the Falcon's scanner. "We've got a ship approaching us!" Han announced with urgency. Turning to Chewbacca, "Raise the shields!"

"Wait, we don't know if it's one of our own!" Jaina exclaimed.

"We don't know it it's an Imperial ship, either," Luke countered, who looked at Han. "Did it just came out of hyperspace?"

"No, the scanner states it was coming from the side of the planet," the former smuggler responded. "Looks like whatever was responsible for this doesn't want anyone to be here."

Everyone else silently agreed with that notion. Suddenly, the Falcon's crew notice an object approaching the graveyard of ships, the current position of the Falcon. They realized the object was a gray-armored ship that looked like it did not belong to the Imperial Remnant, nor the New Republic. Its design was something out of this galaxy. "What's that?" Jacen thought aloud.

Chewbacca let out a series of growls and grunts to Han, who nodded back. "Right," Han said. Looking over his shoulder, Han told his Jedi relatives, "Luke, Jacen take the turrets!"

As Jacen and his uncle left the cockpit to man the Falcon's turrets, Jaina stared bewilderedly at her dad. "What about me?" she asked.

Han stood up from the pilot's seat and said, "Well, I'm going to check the Falcon's hyperdrive. Someone's going to have to pilot this ship."

Jaina grinned. "Got it, dad!"

As Han left the cockpit, Jaina got in the pilot's seat and placed her hands on the controls. Han normally would not let anyone pilot his ship, but Jaina was a really good pilot, thanks to the lessons she learned from him and her uncle.. There were even a few times she piloted the Falcon.

Chewbacca let out a growl to Jaina, who replied, "Don't worry Chewie. We'll get out of this in one piece."

As soon as she said that, Jaina head the alarms on the Falcon's controls go off, making her look at the readings.
They're powering their weapons!" she announced as she focused her attention back to her piloting skills.

Grabbing the controls, Jaina flew the Falcon to the side in time to avoid a volley of turbolasers. More turbolasers fired from the mysterious ship, which the Falcon avoided, thanks to Jaina's piloting skills. Soon, the Millennium Falcon and its crew found themselves trying to avoid an oncoming volley of turbolasers that struck the space around them, causing the ship to rock a little.
Inside the cockpit, the seats rocked back and forth, causing Jaina and Chewbacca to sway from side-to-side. The constant movement made Chewbacca let out a sickly groan. "Don't worry Chewie!" Jaina assured. "Everything is going to be alright!"

Ironically, a turbolaser scrapped against the Falcon's side and was close to striking the engines on the back. An explosions of sparks and small durasteel bits flew into the off the Falcon and into space. Everyone inside could feel the explosion causing the freighter to shake more than usual, which made Jacen yell from the turret, "What happened?"

Han was the firs to reply as he ran from the hyperdrive engine room, which was now covered in smoke. He looked up at Jacen on the turret. "The hyperdrive's been hit! We can't make the jump to hyperspace!"

Inside the cockpit, Jaina and Chewbacca stared at each other for a moment before Jaina yelled out, "I'm going to land the Falcon on the surface!"

That caused Chewbacca to let out a roar of protest, which Jaina countered, "Well, it's better than being blasted into pieces!"

With that, Jaina pushed down on the controls and the Falcon shot straight towards the snowy planet of Hoth. While Luke and Jacen fired the ship's turrets at the unknown ship in hopes of hitting it, Han entered the cockpit to see Jaina maneuvering the Falcon around the turbolasers and towards Hoth. "What are you doing?" Han demanded.

"Trying to make sure we survive!" was her reply.

Before Han had the chance to say anything else, the ship rocked some more as the three heard an explosion in the back of the Falcon. Han turned around to see smoke entering the halls, so immediately went to care of it. As he did, he yelled to Jaina "Whatever you do, just get us out of this mess!"

Jaina did not need to say anything to her dad, focusing on the task at hand and grasping the Falcon's controls. "Hold on!" she shouted.

This was going to be a bumpy ride.
