Short For A Stormtrooper (Luke Skywalker x Reader)

Title was supposed to say "Aren't You A Little Short For A Stormtrooper? (Luke Skywalker x Reader)" but Wattpad wouldn't let me fit that. Sorry!

"We have just received word from Governor Tarkin that Princess Leia was captured by the empire. She was carrying plans for the new military base The Death Star. The last time we saw this base was on Scarif, but recently Bothan spies have given us their new location. Unfortunately only one of them made it."

Mon Mothma interrupts her speech long enough to look over to the lone spy. The rebels and you all stand and clap for her. She stares at everyone gratefully, but everyone here on Yavin 5 knows exactly what it's like to lose someone close to them.

Who did you lose? You lost your parents to the Empire three years ago. You can still hear the blasters going off and the rage you felt when you pointed your own blaster at each trooper and delivering your revenge. The scene played out like a holo-message every time you closed your eyes. You even kept the armor of your first kill.

"It is imperative that the princess be returned back to us. She is the only one who knows where the Death Star plans transmission is located, and for that reason we are sending Private (l/n) to retrieve the princess, given her history with the Empire.

Mon Mothma walks over to you and hands you a holo-message. "Please review this and report to hanger bay three. There will be an imperial TIE fighter waiting for you. And (y/n), may the force be with you."

*Time skip brought to you by R2D2 being a total bad-ass in Episode 3*

You came out of light speed with a view of two massive spheres. One was the beautiful Alderaan and the other was the looming Death Star. You shifted in your stormtrooper armor not just from the sight but from the weight of the new chest plate the rebels had given you.

You steered the ship into the landing bay, but once you stepped out of the ship you were immediately surrounded by stormtroopers. They move to clear a path for none other than Governor Tarkin himself. Then the stormtroopers force you to your knees and remove your helmet.

Tarkin paces around the ship. "TIE number 9705 was captured by the rebel alliance eight days before the destruction of Scarif. There for you are a rebel spy looking for the princess no doubt. Do not look any farther you rebel scum." Tarkin walks over to you. "You will find her a strong willed cellmate."

He nods to the troopers restraining you and they begin to lead you down a maze of hallways and elevators. They then bring you to your cell and rudely shove you into it.

"So I see the rescue attempt failed." A voice says from a corner.

You look over to see the princess wrapped in white with dried tears staining her cheeks. Even though she is the image of pure sadness, her voice holds a confidence that only royalty could have.

"Yes I - Wait. How did you know I was the one sent to rescue you?"

"When I saw Tarkin destroy my home, he told me that a stolen ship was approaching. Also your armor is too big on you and there are no female troopers."

Her voice drops to a whisper "Sexist pigs."

"If I were the daughter of an imperial officer I would run far away to a planet that the Empire does not control." You say.

Leia laughs. "I would like to think that any daughter of an Imperial would join the rebellion."

"Well I am going to rest. Wake me if anymore troopers arrive." Leia commands and lies down on the uncomfortable-looking, metal table that would serve as our bed.

*Time skip 15 minutes later*

You hear shouting from outside the cell.

"Luke! We're going to have company!" Someone shouts.

Suddenly the door opens and a trooper stands in front of you. His armor is crooked and his helmet is tilted to the left.

"Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?" You ask.

"Huh? Oh the uniform." He takes off the helmet revealing the image of a true golden boy. Messy blonde hair and crystal blue eyes.

"I'm Luke Skywalker. I'm here to rescue the princess." He answers.

Leia, who is still partially asleep but is now starting to understand that help has arrived, sits up. "Your who?"

"I'm here to rescue you. I have your R2 unit. I'm here with Ben Kenobi." He reply urgently.

Leia, now wide awake, stands. "Ben Kenobi? Where is he?"

"Come on" Luke guides her and Leia grabs your hand as you all run out of the cell.

You all hear more blasts as brunette man dressed as a stormtrooper and a creature that you recognize as a wookiee, join you all.

"Can't get out that way." The new man says.

"Looks like you've managed to cut off our only escape route." Leia responds and she and the brunette start bickering. 

"And somehow their rescue attempt is going better than mine." You say before the troopers start firing again.

You all are forced into hiding in the alcoves. You, Luke and Leia are in one, and the brunette and the wookiee are in the other.

Luke begins to shout something into a hidden com link. "There isn't any other way out." He starts firing at the troopers but misses.

"Give me that." You yell while taking the gun from him. You aim and fire at the troopers, never missing a single shot.

"Who are you?" Luke asks.

"I'm (y/n) (l/n) of the rebel alliance. If you expect to find their base you're going to need my help. Not even the princess over here knows the coordinates of the base." You snap back at him.

"We can't hold them off forever! Now what?" The brunette yells.

Leia steals the gun away from you. "Some rescues. You got in here and you didn't make a plan for getting out?"

"He's the brains sweetheart." He jests back.

Leia then aims and fires at the trash compacter shoot blowing a hole through the covering.

"What the hell are you doing?" He yells.

Leia responds coolly "Somebody has to save our skins." She starts firing and walking towards the hole. "Into the garbage shoot Fly Boy!" She tosses the blaster back to Luke and jumps in with you following suit.

Luke's POV:

Han manages to convince Chewbacca into the shoot by means of... aggressive negotiations.

"Wonderful girl that princess of yours! Either I'm going to kill her or I'm beginning to like her!" Han yells.

Luke smiles to himself. "That's not the one I'm beginning to like."

And so Luke jumps into the shoot hoping to see you on the other side.

But what he's met with, was a face full of garbage.
