Revival Excerpt: The Rebel Alliance Meets

Luke's POV

A while after we boarded a ship lent to us by a Nabooian pilot, the lush viridian moon named Yavin 4 came into view.

"I'm sorry about your house," the Nabooian Twi'lek pilot said under her breath.

"It's fine, Min," Mom shook her head. I was saddened to see her tear up at the thought of being away from home. I knew Naboo was her home planet and that she was queen in her teens. Of course, it made sense that she had come to love Naboo so dearly. Not to mention that she and Dad moved there after the Battle of Mustafar.

As our ship landed near the Rebel base, I saw the tall emerald green trees reaching up into the sky. Of course. This was Yavin. I learned in school that it was a jungle planet. I thought this was useless information the teachers just loved to cram into young minds.

"Just in time, Padme," Ahsoka approached us as we got off the ship. "We've got a conference regarding the search for Anakin Skywalker,"

"Great," Mom nodded. "What about Luke and Leia?"

"They can come to the meeting. And I just want to say, I'm sorry about your house,"

"It's fine,"

"Min, you come too," Ahsoka gestured for us to follow her.

"Yes, ma'am," Min nodded as she followed Ahsoka into the Rebel base. The place was crowded with X-wings and ships galore. I must have inherited my love for ships from Dad because I almost got distracted drooling over the newest X-wing model.

"Luke, focus," Mom snapped.

"Yes, Mom," I dashed to catch up with Mom, Leia, Min, and Ahsoka. The meeting room had a table that displayed holograms smack dab in the middle of things. Some familiar faces, like Bail Organa, Ajax, and Mon Mothma, were among the people there. The rest were either Rebel fighter captains or senators unknown.

"You joined just in time, everybody," Mon Mothma said.
