Leia walked out of her room wearing a cloak around her body with the hood down. She looked around the base one last time as she smirked at the old place that had kept her locked inside. Now her father was finally letting her out. As she walked around the base she spotted her father talking with her brother. He was probably rebriefing him about his mission and how he better not disappoint him. It was a reason why she liked being the younger of Luke and her. She was the baby, but no one would be willing to call out who's their father's favorite. Not just yet. These missions may be able to tell them who he likes more. It's a race now and Leia was determined to start first. Whoever was his favorite would be next in line for his throne or to become his true apprentice. Everyone at this moment was only Inquisitors. A step lower from apprentice and every one of the Inquisitors would be rushing their training after they get word that Luke and Leia are being sent out on their first mission. Even though the Inquisitors have been on plenty of missions, having the twins amount their ranks would have anyone shaking in their boots.
Leia smirked to herself and strutted her way over to her father and twin.
"Well, I'm on my way out now Father." Leia interrupted Luke as he was speaking.
"Have fun out there, remember do not let those Rebels know who you are," Vader spoke in a completely monotone voice.
"Please father! Who would question who I am or where I come from when I'm wearing this?" Leia opened her cloak to show off the Hutt slave outfit.
"Your mother's clothing," Vader comments barely taking a glance at the bikini.
"I asked her for it, father. Besides, it marks me as a slave to those Rebels and I'll have those men wrapped around my finger." Leia smiled
"I'm sure you will Leia. Now go and slow down those Rebels. Destroy them from the inside out." Vader demanded of his daughter who recovered herself.
"Yes, father," Leia said and strutted away not forgetting to look at her twin's face when she revealed her outfit. He had kept a calm look outlook, but Leia could sense the shock of seeing his twin like some slave. She could mentally see his jaw fall to the floor.As she walked onto a ship she was making marks on her wrist, neck, and back. She made it seem like she had just escaped from Jabba's palace. She set the course of the ship to Nal Hutta. Which barely took a minute to get there through hyperspace. She landed on the planet and wiped the memory of the ship. She got off of the ship and looked around making sure she remembered where it was after she pulled her hood up. She had landed near Jabba's Palace. She had easily found her way in after she had quickly memorized the map of the palace on as she had gotten dressed.
She knew from information that her mother gave her that a smuggler has been back and forth from Nal Hutta to the orbit of Alderaan where the Rebels are. Now if she can catch the smuggler's attention and not any slave of Jabba's. She carefully walked in the shadows of the palace. After a bit of walking, she spotted the smuggler. She couldn't remember his name even after her father told her multiple times. It was probably a simple name to remember too. She had come to a corner and lowered her hood for a second. She looked around before she raised it back up pretending that she didn't see the smuggler looking right at her. She continued down a hall towards the exit. She could sense the smuggler following her cautiously. She was almost to the exit before he grabbed her arm.
"Now where do you think you're going?" The smuggler asked with a corner of his mouth bent in a smirk.
"Let go of me! You have no right to touch me." Leia said acting like she was panicking. She tried to pull her arm away from his grip than fell to her knees. "Please. Just please take me away from here. I can't stand this place any longer." Leia looked up at him letting her hood fall back. Her eyes pleaded him.
"Now, I'm not going to hurt you. Who are you some slave?" The smuggler asked
"Yes, please you must get me out of here. You don't understand what they do here! You have to let me leave with you. If I'm caught he'll just have me killed or he'll have me beaten. Please I can not stand another beating!" Leia begged him with tears rolling down her face.
"You do know I can't save every slave girl that comes crawling to my feet." The smuggler let go of her arm.
"Please, sir! I'll do anything! You drop me off on the next planet. Just please don't leave me here! I'll give you anything that you want please take me with you!" Leia kept begging him the man groaned and looked around hoping that she wasn't catching anyone's attention. He grabbed her arm and pulled her off of her knees onto her feet.
"Alright kid, follow me. You're lucky that this is my last time coming to this planet." The smuggler whispered to her as they quickly started to leave the palace and board onto a large ship.
"Thank you, sir! Oh, thank you!" Leia smiled happily.
"I am heading right over to some friends of mine to drop off some supplies to them. I'll drop you off there as well." The smuggler said walking into the cockpit and sat next to a Wookie.
"Thank you, sir," Leia repeated
"Stop calling me 'sir.' It's making me feel old. My name is Han." The smuggler said than pointing over to the Wookie. "That's Chewie, he's my co-pilot. What's your name?"
"Leia. So, are you two with the Rebels?" The Sith Lady asked curiously
"Well, not really. We just drop supplies to them sometimes." Han said and Chewie let out some kind of growling noise.
"I don't care if you have a bad feeling about this Chewie. She needed to get away from Jabba's and we did too." Han said to the Wookie who let out a roar.
"No, Chewie, I didn't we're short a few thousand credits and you know that slug, we have to have all the credits or he'll have bounty hunters with blasters at our heads," Han argued with the Wookie and Leia rolled her eyes as the two bickered back and forth. It went on for a while until they came out of hyperspace. They were flying up to spaceships that were cloaked and they soon docked onto the largest ship.
Leia took a deep breath cloaking her presence just in case someone was the slightest bit Force-sensitive. Han soon shushed his Wookie companion and they all walked onto the ship they docked onto.
