Star Wars: Cross Paths 3

Chapter 28 - Rescue

Ines was looking at Luke, while he entered in their bedroom and grabbing his lightsaber, he put it on his belt.

The moment he knew where his daughters and nephews went, he and Han entered inside the moisture farm, along with Chewie to get their guns and put the speeder out of the garage, so they could go to the canyon and find the kids.

"Babe, are you sure they went to the same canyon you went back then?" she asked adjusting her baby in her arms who had fall asleep.

Luke stood up and look at her.

"I'm positive. She kept talking about that and yesterday, when we were waiting for Leia and Han to arrive, she asked me again," he replied. "I wanted to ask her why, but our family arrived right away, and I forgot about it."

Ines nod, and then she also remembered something.

"In fact, the kids acted pretty weird. Like when I called them to come to eat, they were whispering in the corner. But I didn't think of about it. You know kids."

"That gives me more certain they went there," he said, while he walked out of the bedroom, and entered in the patio, while Han and Chewie came into his direction.

"We are ready, kid," Han said followed by a growl from Chewie.

"Why can I go with you guys?" Leia told looking at her husband and her twin brother. Ines sighed. She too wanted to go with the guys, but she needed helped in the farm and she couldn't leave Ben and Luke.

"You better stay here, sweetheart," Han said approaching her and stroking her left cheek gently.

"Han is right, Leia," Luke nod. "You and Ines need to be here, in case they appeared out of nowhere."

"I need your help here too," Ines said looking at her sister in law, who knew they were right.

Sighing, Leia nod.

"I understand. Just bring our babies back, safely."

"We will, we promise." Han said to her kissing her gently on the lips.

"Don't worry, mistress Leia. R2 and I are sure they are fine. They are strong kids." 3PO said making Leia and Ines smiled at the golden droid.

"Thanks for your words," Leia replied tapping his shoulder.

"Be careful all of you too," Ines said, after Luke kissing her on the lips too.

Following them outside, the women, alongside the two droids and Ben, they watched them get inside the speeder and head to the canyon, hoping they would reach the kids in time and nothing bad had happened to them.

****************

In the canyon:

After running through places and roads inside the canyon, the four kids end up facing a big wall of rock in front of them.

"Oh no." Padmé said looking at her sister and cousins "Now what?"

"We need to go the other way," Alli replied, but when the kids were about to turn back and run away the other direction, they saw a shadow of a creature in the distance. They could see it stop and like sniffing the air, like it was smelling them.

Walking back inside the place where they came from, they press their backs against the big wall rock.

"Maybe we can climb it?" Bail asked looking up, but they knew it was impossible. They were trap.

In the distance they could hear the creature approaching, making the kids, get closer towards each other.

"I want mama," Padmé started crying.
