The group heads off to the planet of Yavin, the planet is purely jungle, but the Rebels have set up base on one of the moons of the planet. Princess Leia is one of the heads of the Rebel Alliance.

They land on the fourth moon of Yavin in a dense jungle.

Princess Leia leads them into the Rebel base where people are being briefed on a plan of some sort. One of the men, who looks rather important runs up and gives Leia a hug.

"You're safe! We had feared the worst." He looks relieved. He unhands her and takes a step back and bows. "When we heard about Alderaan, we were afraid that you were...lost along with your father.""We don't have time for our sorrows, Commander." SHe says formally, but looks a little relieved to be back with people she knows, "The battle station has surely tracked us here. It's the only explanation for the ease of our escape. You must use the information in this R2 unit to plan the attack. It is our only hope."

"Follow me then." The man says, they are lead to the center of the poliots being told of the mission. Leia walks to the big table in the center of the room, the table is projecting holograms of The Death Star and of smaller fighters.

Luke, Aiden, and the two droids take a seat with the pilots, while Han and Chewbacca stay by the back wall.

A different man standing near Leia steps in the front and starts to speak. "The battle station is heavily shielded and carries a firepower greater than half the star fleet. It's defenses are designed around a direct large-scale assault. A small one-man fighter should be able to penetrate the outer defense."A man in the row behind Luke and Aiden stands, "Pardon me for asking, sir, but what good are sub fighters going to be against that?"

"The Empire doesn't consider a small one-man fighter to be any threat, or they'd have a tighter defense. An analysis of the plans provided by Princess Leia has demonstrated a weakness in the battle station." The important looking man replies.

The man continues with the briefing, "The approach will not be easy. You are required to maneuver straight down this trench and skim the surface to this point. The target area is only two meters wide. It's a small thermal exhaust port, right below the main port. The shaft leads directly to the reactor system. A precise hit will start a chain reaction which should destroy the station."A murmer of disbelief is heard around the room."Only a precise hit will set up a chain reaction. The shaft is ray-shielded, so you'll have to use proton torpedoes."

A younger man, next to Luke, speaks up "That's impossible, even for a computer!""It's not impossible. I used to bull's-eye womp rats in my T-sixteen back home. They're not much bigger than two meters." Luke tells the boy."Man your ships! And may the Force be with you!"

The pilots get up and move to the exits. Luke gets up and goes to the man who has headed the debriefing.

"Is there anyway I can help?" he asks.

The man calls for one of the polits and tells him to get luke suited up. Aiden follows them, "I wish I could do something, I'm garbage at flying."

Luke smiles at him, "It's okay."

Luke is taken back to a room, and Aiden is told he has to wait. After a moment Luke heads out of the back in a orange jumpsuit that the pilots must wear.

They head to the hanger, and find Han and Chewbacca there. Luke walks up behind them, "So...you got your reward and you're just leaving then?" he asks angrily."That's right, yeah! I got some old debts I've got to pay off with this stuff. Even if I didn't, you don't think I'd be fool enough to stick around here, do you? Why don't you guys come with us? You're pretty good in a fight. I could use you two.""Come on! Why don't you take a look around? You know what's about to happen, what they're up against. They could use a good pilot like you. You're turning your back on them." Luke shouts at the man, Aiden shakes his head behind Luke."What good's a reward if you ain't around to use it? Besides, attacking that battle station ain't my idea of courage. It's more like suicide."Luke sighs, "All right. Well, take care of yourself, Han. I guess that's what you're best at, isn't it?"Luke turns and leaves. Aiden says "Good bye and good Luck" to Han and follows Luke. When Aiden catches up he tells Luke, "What did you expect? He thinks of himself first..."

"I know i just thought....I don't know..." Luke says.

"Hey, Luke...may the Force be with you!" Han calls out behind them, the boys turn around and smile. Han winks at them, gives a wave and is off.

On the way to Luke's plain, a man grabs Luke's arm, the smile at each other and the man gives Luke a slap on the back. "Luke! I don't believe it! How'd you get here...are you going out with us?!""Biggs! Of course, I'll be up there with you! Listen, have I got some stories to tell..." Luke pilot joins the small group, "Are you...Luke Skywalker? Have you been checked out on the Incom T-sixty-five?""Sir, Luke is the best bushpilot in the outer rim territories." Biggs brags.

The group starts to walk and Biggs breaks away to go to his own fighter. They stop in front of Luke's fighter."I met your father once when I was just a boy, he was a great pilot. You'll do all right. If you've got half of your father's skill, you'll do better than all right." the older man tells Luke."Thank you, sir. I'll try."

The other man walks off.

Luke turns to Aiden, "So..."

"So," Aiden replies, "You'll do great! I'll be here waiting for you to come back." Aiden wraps his arms around the other boy in a big hug.

"Uhm excuse me," a mechanic interupts, the two boys break apart, "This R2 unit of your seems a bit beat up. Do you want a new one?" he asks."Not on your life!" Luke tells him, "That little droid and I have been through a lot together."

Aiden turns to the ship where R2D2 has been put, he smiles at the blue and whit droid, "You okay, R2?"

R2 beeps has a response. The man leaves.

"May the force be with you Luke." Aiden says and gives Luke a kiss on the cheek and steps away. Luke turns and climbs the ladder to the cockpit.

C-3PO joins Aiden looking up at the fighter, "Hang on tight, R2, you've got to come back." The gold robot beeps in agreement."You wouldn't want my life to get boring, would you?" C-3PO says. Aiden smiles at the robot next to him. They both wave to Luke and R2D2 and then walk out of the hanger.

Right before Luke takes off he hears Obi-Wan voice saying, "May the force be with you." Aiden has a small smile on his face feeling the presence of his master.

Aiden and C-3PO join Princess Leia in the main briefing room, the projection table shows the Death Star moving closer to the moon they're on.

They can hear the fighters taking off.

Princess Leia and Aiden listen to the chatter on the coms.

After a while they hear Luke's voice over the others. "This is Red Five; I'm going in!"

Aiden and the Princess grasp hands, both of them feeling nervous for Luke.

Then they hear Biggs' voice, "Luke pull up!"

Aiden whispers, "Oh gods..."

"Are you all right?" Biggs asks.

"I got a little cooked, but I'm okay." Luke's voices says. Aiden and Leia let out a breath they have been holding and loosen the grip o each other hands, they can feel the blood rushing back into their fingers.

"Luke, let me know when you're going in." A man says."I'm on my way in now..." Aiden and Leia squeeze each others hands again."Watch yourself! There's a lot of fire coming from the right side of that deflection tower." The man warns.

Leia looks at Aiden with worry, Aiden tries to keep a clear mind, tries to fight off the worry."I'm on it." Luke says.

A Control Officer picks up a headset, "Squad leaders, we've picked up a new group ofsignals. Enemy fighters coming your way."

"My scope's negative. I don't see anything." Luke says into the headset.

A minute later the hear Lue say with bit of panic, "I'm hit, but not bad. R2, see what you can do with it. Hang on back there."

Leia whispers, "Oh no."

"R2 can handle it." Aiden assures her.

"I can't shake him!" Luke's voice is heard.

"I'm on him Luke!" another voice says.

"Thanks Wedge." Luke's voice has calmed a bit.

Leia and Aiden sigh in relief. They watch as the Death Star dot moves in closer.

They hear over the speakers, "Death Star will be in range in fiver minutes."

Five minutes felt more like five hours.

Soon Red Leader takes his group, Luke included, into the Death Star getting ready for thier run to distroy it.

"Target coming up!" The leader tells his group. In a few seconds he says, "It's away!"

Everyone in the base holds their breath hoping this will be over with.

"It's a hit!" Everyone looks at each other.

"Negative." Everyone sighs.

Then they hear Luke's voice over the speakers, "Biggs, Wedge, let's close it up. We're going in. We're going in full throttle." He says.

"Luke, at that speed will you be able to pull out in time?" Biggs voice his concerns."It'll be just like Beggar's Canyon back home." Luke assures him.

Its silent for a while, the people in the briefing room ca hear the battle going on.

"Hurry, Luke, they're coming in much faster this time. I can't hold them!" Biggs shouts.

There's silence from Luke.

"Hurry Luke!" Biggs shouts, but they hear and explosion from Biggs, he's been hit, he's gone.

Aiden scenses Obi-Wan's presence.

A man says into a headpiece, "Luke, you switched off your targeting computer. What's wrong?"Luke replies, "Nothing. I'm all right."

Aiden looks at the projections, "Come on Luke use your feelings! You can do this!"

There's another explosion, "I've lost R2!" He says.

Aiden looks at C-3PO, he can tell the droid is worried about his friend, Aiden lets go of one of Leia's hands and puts his arm around the machine, "He'll be okay 3PO."

"Thank you, sir." The robot replies.

They hear a cheer over the speaker. "Is it...?" Princess Leia asks.

"I have a feeling." Aiden tells her.

"You're all clear, kid!" the unmistakable voice of Han Solo is hear on the speaker.

Aiden grins at the Princess. She looks if she's wondering weither to be happy or not.

"Now let's blow this thing and go home!" Han says.

They hear shots, and an explosion. "Great shot, kid. That was one in a million" Han congradulates Luke.

Aiden and Leia hug each other.

"He did it!" they yell over and over.

When Luke docks his ship he's bombarded by Leia and Aiden who almost knock him over hugging him.

"I told you you could do it!" Aiden tell him. "Your on your way to becoming a Jedi, you used the force like a pro!"

Han comes over to them and Luke and him hug each other.

Luke pulls away first and says, "I knew you'd come back! I just knew it!""Well, I wasn't gonna let you get all the credit and take all the reward." Han jokes."Hey, I knew there was more to you than money." Leia tells looks back towards the ship. A smoking R2D2 is being taken from the ship."Oh, no!" he says.

C-3PO has made his way to the fighter, he sees his friend,"Oh, my! R2! Can you hear me? Say something!"He sees the mechanic looking at the little droid, "You can repair him, can't you?""We'll get to work on him right away." The techician replies."You must repair him! Sir, if any of my circuits or gears will help, I'll gladly donate them.""He'll be all right, 3PO." Aiden puts an arm around 3PO to comfort him.

~*~

In a throne room of the palace on the moon of Yavin the group, minus the princess and Aiden, wait behind a door.

Luke is in new clothes, neutral colors with a bright yellow jacket on. Han is still in his regular clothes, refusing to dress up for this.

The door opens and they walk out. Luke is on the right, Han no the left and Chewbacca walks behind them. The place is packed with people. The four walk down the aisle where Leia waits in a bright white dress.

They meets stop right before her on a step. Luke smiles at her, it breaks her straight face and smiles at the boys.

An older man steps forward and Leia turns around to take a medal from him, she puts it around Han's neck, he winks at her making her blush.

Then she puts a medal around Luke's neck.

She turns to her right, where Aiden is standing and beckons him over. He walks to the spot besides Luke.

"I didn't do anything!" Aiden says modestly.

"We couldn't have done it with out you." she tells him and gives a medal also. Aiden smiles at her.

They bow to the princess. They all hear beeps at whistles and look towards C-3PO, a shiney R2D2 steps fowards to stan near his friend.

They all laugh at the little droid.

Princess Leia has them face the audience, all the people clap for them. They grin brightly, but they all have a little voice in the back of thei minds saying,

They won one battle, but the war against the Empire was not over yet.
