Chapter 3.

Harry couldn't say how much time had passed, but he was beginning to feel hungry. They already had told Leia their story, and were discussing how they might get back, when the door opened once more.

Within moments, Harry pointed his wand at the white-armored figure standing outside. "Don't move," he said.

"Huh?" the figure was looking around.

"Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?"

"What? Oh, the uniform." The figure took off its helmet. Underneath was a young man, about Leia's age, but unlike Leia's, his face has been worn by the weather. He had short blond hair, which had been pressed to his head by the helmet. And now, after Leia said it, Harry noticed that he indeed looked too short for the armor suit he wore.

"I'm Luke Skywalker; I'm here to rescue you... Princess Leia?" he said, looking skeptically at Harry and his friends. Harry kept his wand raised. "You're not alone?" he blurted out.

"You're who?" Leia asked, impatiently.

"I'm here to rescue you. I've got your R2 unit. I'm here with Ben Kenobi!"

"Ben Kenobi! Where is he?" Leia's look of acceptance was gone, replaced with resolve.

"C'mon!" Luke yelled.

"It's all right," said Leia, looking at the trio. "They're on our side."

They followed Leia outside, which wasn't really outside, but a very long corridor, seemingly endless. Luke began to run towards one of the ends, when a new voice rang out.

"Chewie!" this new voice screamed. It was followed by a growl that sounded like a troll that Harry and Ron had to fight in their first year.

"Get behind me! Get behind me!" The voice was frantic.

Then came the explosion, and new sounds, somewhat like impacts on metal that didn't resonate. Bright red streaks of light streaked out towards them. Then a man came out of the smoke, followed by an eight foot tall, bipedal, furry, bearlike creature. The man, like Luke, was dressed in stormtrooper armor without a helmet. He was older and taller than Luke, had hair a somewhat lighter shade of brown than Leia's, and even now, his facial expression was an odd mixture of fear and confidence. He raised his eyebrow.

"I thought we were just rescuing the Princess," he grumbled.

"They were in her cell, Han," said Luke, firing his blaster at the stormtroopers as he spoke. Chewie growled something.

Han fired. A stormtrooper fell. "There's too many of them!" he yelled.

"You cut off our escape route!" Leia was angry.

"Maybe you'd like it better back in your cell, your Highness, with your three," he spat the word out, "friends."

Harry looked out into the corridor and raised his wand. "Accio blaster!" he shouted. The lead stormtrooper's blaster rifle flew out of his hands. Harry caught it. As the stormtrooper stared at his hands in disbelief, Han shot him. "Here." Harry tossed the gun to Leia. "You're the only one without weapons."

"Thanks." Leia smiled and fired the gun. Another stormtrooper fell.

"Accio!" This was Ron. He caught another blaster rifle, although he couldn't see the stormtrooper it came from because of smoke. Ron fired, but couldn't see what effect that shot had.

Chewbacca made another growl.

"I know they're still coming," Han spat. "It sucks to be in this position." He fired several bolts down the hallway. Either we cling to the walls and let them approach or we stand up and risk getting killed. Some choice."

Suddenly, Hermione beamed. "Harry, do you think the shield charm will stop these bolts?"

"I don't know. I'll try." Harry thrust his wand forward. "Protego!" he said.

The bolts flashed their explosions in midair and vanished.

"It works!" He stood in the middle of the hallway, bolts impacting about two feet in front of him. "Now, let's expand the shield. Protego!" he said, louder this time.

Ron and Hermione stood up first. "Stupefy!" yelled Hermione, pointing her own wand at the stormtroopers.

Ron fired a few shots from the blaster in his left hand, while holding the wand in his right. "Do you know what you look like?" asked Hermione, before using the stunning spell on another stormtrooper.

Luke and Leia were already out in the hallway, firing their blasters from behind Harry's shield. Only Han still clung to the wall.

"Han!"

"I'm not about to trust my life to some kid with a stick! He's even crazier than that old man with that 'Force' of his!"

"I have no idea what he's doing either, but it's working," said Luke. "Come on, Han!"

"Wingardium Leviosa!" Ron's spell lifted a stormtrooper into the air and positioned him at about waist height, blocking the corridor. The other soldiers stopped, stunned by what they were seeing. Chewie, Luke, Hermione, Leia, and Han, who finally joined them, made short work of them. The corridor grew quiet. Ron dropped the stormtrooper he levitated. As he tried to get up, Hermione stunned him.

As the company headed for the exit, Han came up to Harry and whispered, "Sorry, kid. I still think you're crazy, but you did save our hides. Thanks a lot."

"You're welcome." Harry didn't really mean it.
