The Three Ages of Woman All but Threepio gazed at the departing craft. Still strapped to Chewbacca'sback, he saw something that the others had not yet noticed. "Oh, my, no!" he exclaimed. Charging the group was a squad of Imperial stormtroopers, blasts already issuingfrom their drawn blasters. The first bolt narrowly missed Princess Leia. Landoresponded quickly in returning the enemy fire, and the air was ablaze with a brilliantcriss-cross of red and green bolts. Artoo scooted over to the platform's elevator and hid inside, peeking out to seethe fury of the battle from a safe distance. Lando shouted above the sounds of the blasters. "Come on, let's move!" hecalled, breaking for the open elevator and blasting at the stormtroopers as he ran. But Leia and Chewbacca did not move. They stood their ground and kept up asteady fire against the assault of the stormtroopers. Troopers groaned and droppedas their chests, arms, and stomachs erupted under the fatally accurate aim of this onefemale human and one male Wookiee.
