Luke Skywalker takes every mission that keeps him moving and away from his father, who he swore he'd never face again.

But the closer they come to victory, the closer they drift toward a truth neither is ready to face.

Cost of Rebellion by Mistbird557

Three months after ESB, Luke Skywalker is still reeling from the revelation of his parentage. When he finally cracks and tells Leia, she comes up with a plot to get Darth Vader off his back: stage his death. However, neither of them know that Darth Vader actually cares for his son, so the news ends up creating a Sith Lord hell bent on destroying anyone even remotely involved in Luke's demise. But when Leia tries to contact an in-hiding Luke, she finds that something terrible has really happened, and now no one knows where he is. Meanwhile, Darth Vader starts getting a mysterious, unwilling visitor in his dreams...

Lose Control by Cerberous10

(The Force Awakens Fanfic) The day she lost her parents was one of grief and joy for Zeh Skurn. From then on she was both free from her Mother's horror of her power... but she also lost her father's love and protection. Of course she can't remember much of them now, not that she has time or the desire to with the field she works in. In fact, it was due to being a bounty hunter that got her tangled in the mess between the First Order and the Resistance. Now, captured by the Sith, Kylo Ren, she will have to choose which side she will finally join... and Skurn better pick right or her life will be over. Alder Solo, brother to Ben Solo, son of Leia and Han. He witnessed the massacre of the new order of Jedi, barely escaping with his own life as he fled. A coward, always the coward in the family, not like Ben had been. Alder couldn't even use the force, though his skill with a lightsaber was admirable. Now he has an opportunity to redeem himself and bring his brother back to the light, will he be able to accomplish his task and learn to accept his lack of the Force or will Kylo Ren destroy him completely? One thing is certain: The First Order has strength beyond that of the Resistance and with Zeh Skurn under their influence the Resistance needs Luke Skywalker found and Finn, Poe, and Rey must help Alder find his true path if they are to ever defeat Kylo Ren.

Charting the Stars - Dinluke AU by Mari-Novak

An AU where Darth Vader found out he had a son, intercepted Obi-Wan on his way to Tatooine, and took Luke. To keep him safe from the Emperor, he hid him away on Arvala-7, where years later Din Djarin would land to collect a bounty on a 50-year-old child. Having never seen the galaxy except for what was visible from his singular window, Luke decides to go with the Mandalorian when he leaves. Specific story warnings at the beginnings of each chapter, but the biggest one is an ongoing theme of overcoming child abuse (though it is not explicit and not talked about often past the first couple of chapters) so I would like to share some resources: Abuse of any kind is never okay. For help with child abuse, please contact your local CPS hotline, or speak out to mandated reporters like teachers and doctors. They can help you and will keep you safe. If you suspect a child you know is being abused, contact CPS and do not attempt to handle the situation yourself unless it is an immediate emergency, in which case call 911 or your local emergency line. For help with domestic abuse, contact the domestic violence hotline. In America, this number is 800-799-7233 and they are available through both call and text in English and Spanish and have interpreters for over 200 other languages. Never hesitate to ask for help and leave a situation that is unsafe for you and your family. If you suspect that someone is being abused, you can try to encourage them to seek help, but sometimes it is better to just call help for them. It is always better to be safe than sorry.

Marked by the Empire (Anakin/Vader x Mandalorian Reader) by MrsSkywalkerR2-D2

They call her a ghost. A killer. A myth. (Y/n) (Y/l/n) doesn't serve the Light or the Dark-she serves survival. With a lightsaber in one hand and a bounty in the other, she's carved a name for herself in blood and silence across the galaxy. Until a mission gone wrong lands her face-to-face with the Empire's most feared enforcer: Darth Vader. But this isn't the monster she expected. Behind the armor is a man both ruthless and strangely gentle. A man who chooses her-for reasons she doesn't understand and refuses to accept. Now trapped inside the Empire's walls and haunted by a connection she can't shake, (Y/n) must navigate deadly missions, hidden truths, dark pasts and a romance she never asked for. She was hired to spy, maybe kill. She didn't plan to feel. And Vader? He never planned to fall in love. Best Rankings: 1st in AnakinSkywalker (05/22/25) 1st in Sith (06/14/25)
