Alia sat in the X-wing she took, she typed in the coordinates and flew towards her destination.

Moments later she was landing the ship inside the second Death Star. Troopers quickly surrounded the ship, aiming their guns towards her. She opened the cockpit, climbing out of it.

"Raise your hands!" One trooper ordered.

"And if I don't? You'll shoot?" Alia asked.

She lifted her hand, throwing their guns to the side.

"Someone get Lord Vader down here," another trooper ordered.

"What you can't handle a little old lady?" Alia questioned.

All of a sudden the troopers moved out of the way... revealing Vader.

"Pleasant to see you again," Vader said.

"Wish I could say the same," Alia mumbled.

Vader looked over his shoulder.

"Leave us!" Vader ordered.

The trooper nodded and walked away.

"Why have you come back?" Vader asked.

"To end this," Alia mumbled.

"You want to kill me?" Vader asked.

"No. I want to kill Palpatine," Alia said.

Vader looked down at her.... sensing what she was saying was true.

"Where's young Skywalker?" Vader asked.

"Obviously not here," Alia mumbled.

"So it seems," Vader said.

They walked down a long hallway, troopers followed behind them....

"Why did you lie to me?" Vader asked.

Alia looked up at him.....

"What? About Luke?" Alia questioned.

Vader nodded.

"Because as his mother it is my job to protect him from the darkness and from you!" Alia snapped.

Vader grew quiet and continued to walked..... They finally reached a door. Alia could sense Palpatine, she could sense the darkness around him and it scared her. She took a step back and shook her head..... Vader put his hand on her shoulder and gently squeezed it, trying to comfort her.

Within a blink of an eye... he slammed on handcuffs, and pushed her through the door. She looked up at him....

"Why?" She questioned.

"You are too weak for the Empire," Vader said.

He pushed her across a long bridge that lead towards a black throne....

She closed her eyes when his laughter filled her ears.
