Saving The Princess








"Where did you dig up that old fossil?" Han asked.

Katerina tilted her head.

"Ben is a great man." Luke responded, "Yeah, great at getting us in trouble." Han said. Kat groaned, these two were gonna be the death of her.

"Well, anything would be better than just hanging around waiting for him to pick us up..." Han started, "Who do you think..."

They heard a beeping sound coming from R2.

Katerina stood up, kneeling down in front of the droid.

"What is it?" She asked. "I'm afraid I'm not quite sure, ms. He says "I found her", and keeps repeating, "She's here"." C-3PO replied.

"Well, who... who has he found?" Kat asked. "Princess Leia." C-3PO answered. The Skywalker cousins shared a look. "The princess? She's here?" Both questioned in sync.

"Princess? What's going on?" Han asked, confused.

"Level 5. Detention block A A-23. I'm afraid she's scheduled to be terminated." C-3PO told them. "Oh, that's great. The princess is gonna die, that, that is fantastic." Katerina stated sarcastically, standing up.

"Oh no! We've got to do something." Luke said.

"What are you talking about?" Han asked, once again, confused. "The droid belongs to her. She's the one in the message... We've got to help her." Kat crossed her arms, sighing. "Now, look, don't get any funny ideas. The old man wants us to wait right here."

"But he didn't know she was here. Look, will you just find a way back to into the detention block?" Luke asked Han.

"I'm not going anywhere." Han told him. "They're going to execute her. Look, a few minutes ago you said you didn't want to just wait here to be captured. Now all you want to do is stay." Luke tried again. "Marching into the detention area is not what I had in mind." Han argued back. "But they're going to kill her!" Luke exclaimed. "Better her than me..."

Kat got an idea, "She's rich." She smirked. "Rich?" Han repeated.

She nodded, "Yes. Rich, powerful! Listen, if you were to rescue her, the reward would be..." She tried to estimate an amount.

"What?"

"Well more wealth than you can imagine." Luke said. "I don't know, I can imagine quite a bit!" Han told the two. "You'll get it!" Katerina told him. "I better!" He responded. "You will..." Luke reassured Han.

"All right, kid. But you two better be right about this."

"What's your plan?" Han asked.

The two Skywalkers looked at each other and nodded.

"Uh, 3PO, hand me those binders there will you?" Luke said. Luke moved towards Chewie with the electronic cuffs. "Okay. Now, I'm going to put these on you." He went to put them on. The wookie growled, "Okay. Han, you put these on." He handed the cuffs to Han.

Kat sighed, she knew that they weren't gonna have another pair of the trooper armour. She held her wrists out as Han put the binders on her wrists.

"Master Luke, sir, ms Kat! Pardon me for asking... but, ah... what should R2 and I do if we are discovered here?" C-3PO asked. "Lock the door!" Luke told him. "And hope they don't have blasters." Han and Katerina said in sync.

"That isn't very reassuring." The protocol droid muttered.

"This is not going to work." Han said.

"Why didn't you say so before?" Luke questioned. "I did say so before!" Han replied.

The elevator doors opened, a tall, grim officer approached them. "Where are you taking this girl and this... thing?" The officer questioned. Chewie growled, but Han nudged him to be quiet. "Prisoner transfer from Block 1-1-3-8." Luke answered.

"I wasn't notified. I'll have to clear it." Katerina tapped her foot lightly, and bit her lip.

Han untightened Chewie's cuffs, while Luke untightened Kat's.

Chewie let out a roar and Katerina grabbed a dagger she happened to have and threw it at one of the officers. She then punched one of them and kicked him in the gut.

"Look out! They're loose!" Han exclaimed.

"He's going to pull us all apart." Luke said. "Go get them!" Han said.

"We've got to find out which cell this princess of yours she's in. Here it is... cell 2-1-8-7. You go get her. We'll hold them here." Han told Luke, referring to himself and Katerina.

"Everything is under control. Situation normal." Han tried to sound official. Kat used all her power to stop a laugh. "What happened?" The intercom voice asked. "Uh... had a slight weapons malifunction. But, uh, everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?" Han glared at the blonde, who couldn't help but grin.

"We're sending a squad up." The voice said.

"Uh, uh, negative. We had a reactor leak here now. Give us a few minutes to lock it down. Large leak... very dangerous." Han tried to stop the person.

"Who is this? What's your operating number?"

Han blasted the comlink and it exploded. "Boring conversation anyway." Han muttered. "Luke! We're going to have company!" Katerina yelled down the hall.

"Well, this is fun." She mumbled.

----


"Get behind me! Get behind me!" Han said.

Soon Luke and the princess came rushing towards them. The princess noticed the familiar looks of the other Skywalker. "Can't get out that way."

"Looks like you managed to cut off our only escape route." The princess told him. Kat was starting to like this princess. Not in the relationship way, if that's what you're thinking.

"Maybe you'd like it back in your cell, Your Highness." Han suggested sarcastically.

"And you almost died, Your Highness." Kat added.
