The Chosen Ones

Epilogue—25ish years later

By the time that Luke and Leia grew up, the Galaxy was at peace. There were no rebellions, and no Empire. No Resistance, no Order.

Luke was a Jedi Knight, who had personally been trained by Masters Obi-Wan and Yoda. Leia was Force sensitive, but wasn't quite as powerful in the Force, and she had left the Jedi Order to become a politician. She eventually became a Senator from Naboo, just like her mother.

At the moment, she was waiting for her boyfriend, a Captain in the Republic Navy, who was going to leave the Service after his time was up. Lieutenant Han Solo she thought was extremely handsome, and she thought that he would pop the question any day now.

Solo had managed to perform some action (Classified at the Highest level), that had earned him Second Class Correlian Blood-stripes, and then another action that had earned him his First-Class. Leia thought that the actions may have occurred when he saved a Wookie by the name of Chewbacca, who had run afoul of some Slavers coming in from the Outer Rim.

After Solo's actions to disrupt the Slavery Ring, the Navy had wiped out the Slavers and freed the Wookies and Twi'leks. Since Solo acted in a way to directly save Chewbacca's life, the Wookie saw himself as having a life-debt to the human.

Solo had purchased a ship, a Correlian YT-2000, which he had specially modified, adding a couple of features, and enhancing the Hyperdrive. He had dubbed it the Millennium Falcon.

He was also a rather good card player, and was looking to ship merchandise throughout the stars. There were rumours that he'd won most of the materials to modify the Falcon by betting at cards.

Luke's girlfriend was Harry's daughter, Ariana, who was named after his former headmaster's late sister. She was an artist, but also extremely dangerous with a blaster. She could hit a sabacc card with a blaster from 500 metres. She was very beautiful; even Leia admitted that if she swung that way, that Ariana would be her first choice of girlfriends.

Harry was still in the Jedi Order, and was slowly bringing it around to modern times, as he had gotten a promotion to the rank of Master a couple of years ago. He noticed that he was actually starting to age in sync with Sabé, with whom he had two children other than Ariana: Sirius Ben, and Ron Anakin, who were a couple of years younger than Ariana. Harry was sure that Dumbledore would've been touched that he used the name 'Ariana'.

Sabé had gone into writing after she left the bodyguard business, although she sometimes filled in for Padmé on occasion, and had quite a number of successful novels, which had been translated into every language of the Republic.

Luke was visiting his parents and his sister, when a knock came at the door. He looked, and saw that it was Captain Solo.

"Leia, the Lieutenant is here," Luke said. "The one with the walking carpet!"

"Well, of course," said Leia walking into the room. "When is Ariana coming?"

"Knowing her, as soon as Lieutenant Solo and his Wookie leave," he replied.

/\\ Time-skip another 25 years

Han had proposed to Leia on her 24th birthday, and they'd gotten married on her 25th birthday. Luke and Ariana married the next day.

The Jedi Council was more tolerant of love than it had been in the past, and Luke had gotten special dispensation from Grand Master Yoda, on Yoda's 900th birthday. Unfortunately, Yoda's strength in the Force hadn't prevented him from dying a couple of years later.

Obi-Wan had just died in his home a couple of years prior. He had been surrounded by all of his friends and former apprentices.

Harry was mostly retired now, only acting as a member of the Jedi Council, which now included Obi-Wan and Anakin (who had returned after his suspension).

By the time Leia was 40, she had four children—a set of fraternal twins (Jaina and Jacen), and two younger sons by the names of Ben and Anakin, neither of whom ever turned to the Dark Side.

In an interesting twist, Ariana managed to get pregnant at the same time as her sister-in-law, all three times. She had identical twins Lily Padmé and Luna Ginny, and two boys: Harry James and George Han. Each child was born within a couple of minutes of a Solo child.

A week after Leia and Han got married, Luke and Ariana got married. Amazingly, the couple had children on the same exact days as Han and Leia did. Ariana had twin girls (Lily Padmé and Luna Ginny), and two boys (Harry James and George Han).

Harry looked at his growing family of children, grandchildren, nieces, and nephews and smiled. He saw his face in the mirror and saw the scar that had not hurt for nearly 400 years. All was well.

Many years after he looked in that mirror, he finally got his wish, when on Ariana's 105th birthday, both were Transformed into The Force.

A/N:

If one looks closely to the children's names, you can find references to the "Legends" Continuity (what used to be called the "Expanded Universe"), and the new Star Wars 7 continuity.

Pairings: Harry/ Sabé (the primary impersonator of Padmé), Anakin/Padmé

The first part of the chapter takes place around the time of the Battle of Yavin IV from Star Wars, and the second part is around 25 ABY on the original series calendar. Obviously, due to the manipulations of Harry, the Battle of Yavin never occurred.
