Chapter 18
Alia stood in the back... watching as Leia gave instructions on how to destroy the Death Star. Leia continued to go into detail... but Alia soon drifted off into her own thoughts.
Thinking about what Vader was doing.
Was he going to kill her?
Was he looking for her?
Suddenly a voice appeared in her head.
"Darling Alia... you didn't think I would track you? When I find you, I will make you beg for your life," The voice said.
The voice wasn't Vader... but someone more evil.
"Palpatine, I'd like to see you try," She replied.
"Maybe I'll kill your darling children... or have the boy train under me, he'll be just like his father," He laughed.
"Over my dead body! Luke will never join you," Alia growled.
His voice drifted away.... haunting Alia's mind.
As she focused on reality, she realized she was the only one in the room.... She walked out and saw Han and Chewie waiting for her.
"I thought maybe you'd like to join us?" Han asked.
"Join you? Why?" She asked.
"From the stories... you were one of the best damn pilots, if you won't join then we'll be leaving," Han sighed.
"It's tempting," She smiled.
"It'll be fun!" Han laughed.
"I'll do it for Luke," Alia said.
Han nodded and motioned for her to follow him back to the ship... they were once on.
"Mind I ask... what is this piece of crap?" She asked.
"Whoa! This here is the Falcon, I won her," Han smiled, feeling proud.
"I see," She replied.
"Are you good at shooting?" He asked.
She frowned and held up her saber, causing him to sigh.
"Well it's not hard, there's two red buttons... you'll know when you see them," Han said.
He walked her to an opening and pointed down the ladder....
"That's where you'll be," He smiled.
Alia nodded and slide down the ladder... she sat down in the chair and placed the headset on.
"Do you read me Alia?" Han asked, speaking through the headset.
"Copy! Over," Alia replied.
"Alright! Let's get this show in the road," Han cheered.

X-wings were shooting Tie-fighters... explosions everywhere. Alia moved around in her chair shooting Tie-fighters so the bomber squads could get through.
The falcon moved through the battlefield.
As it made its way closer to the Death Star, Alia grew nervous... sensing Vader.
"Alia? You there?" Han called out.
She quickly shook off the feeling and continued to shoot.
"We need to go inside... and blow it up from the inside," Alia called out.
"Where's the opening?" Han asked.
Alia guided him towards a small opening, but big enough for the ship to fly through it.
Once they got there... Alia dropped a bomb, and within minutes Han flew out fast.... just in time to see the Death Star explode.
