Death Star: episode #24 Setting things up
Previously: Lando arranges to have the droid dropped off on Anuvuin. The Emperor�s daughters each got special assignments from their father. Minka and Taran were given the task of getting things ready for Darth Vader�s 39th birthday part. Nelly is given an assignment, and then Ursula is. Ursula's involves making sure Vader doesn�t ask certain questions of Samantha.
Minka whispers to Taran, �someday that�ll be the Empire�s undoing. If they�re going to last, they�ve got to be working together�not plotting against each other and pretending like nothing�s going on.� Taran says, �Yeah, but IS think we should get back to work on this �party�. But it is the fear that holds the Empire together.� �Even that can�t hold together forever. There is an old Jedi Legend of one who will bring balance to the force.� They stop talking as the top inspector comes in and orders them to move faster. Were� going to go to Bail Organa now. (Yes, I know it�s Bail Antilles in the other stories, and yes, I know what I�m doing. I did that on purpose, just as I�m suspecting George Lucas is doing.) This is from episode 10 that we are continuing this. Bail just said, �Could be, but the question is then, what did they do with her?� Correon could only shrug. Then Bail says, �I�d better contact Obi-Wan about this, too. I�m assuming you know about the plans for the Death star?� Correon nodded. �I went out the droids to Lando�s place to collect the data we need.� Bail checks the time, �I�d better got going�I�m expected to be on Yavin in an hour. Thanks for telling me, Correon�. I greatly appreciate it! I�m assuming you�re going to the meeting too. I just hope that those droids get the information we need, or we�ll be in big trouble.� The meeting that Bail is referring to is a meeting with all the Rebellion leaders. Yavin is the Hidden Rebel Base. Thus, Bail Organa goes to Yavin. More and more people are joining up with the Rebellion these days. They have a special sign up process�paperwork is done by someone named Shmi Skywalker. She�s� now around 60. Now back to an event that happened in episode #9. Yoda and Obi-wan just finished talking. I guess I did have Obi-Wan go back to Tatooine. Good, that�s what I wanted. I guess I�ll leave it at that, except that Obi-Wan went tot his hut and started to meditate. Okay, on to the banthas (also from episode #9) (Death Star is the most complex of the stories�because it involves everything that�s happened in the other stories). Mrs. Bantha says, �Now banthas, remember anything that wonders about here in the Judland wastelands is ours. Those stupid sandpeople just feel like they have to own us. Oh well. Today we�ll just wonder around�.� Bantha Stephanie just got a message from Coruscant. �Hang on a minute�what is it darling daughter?� Nelly says, �In need you to help me with something�� and she explains her plan. �Sure we can do that,� says Bantha Stephanie. The Banthas all break apart from each other and go off on their own ways. Now to an even tin episode 10�the Solo thing, Mrs. Solo and her husband Mr. Solo, and Ashka are over at Mr. Solo�s house. Ashka gets up and says, �I really have to get going. I have somewhere I have to be.� Mr. Solo rally wished his twin sister wouldn�t work for the Empire, but there's nothing he can do about it. Corellia was not a main planet, so Ashka didn�t like staying long. After she had left to meet with Gryvon, Mr. Solo turned to his wife helplessly. �I wish there was something we could do for her.� Mrs. Solo replies �She didn�t help you when you had your accident, did she?� MR. Solo had been inured about 30 years ago and has been in a wheelchair ever since. �No�and she didn�t� t help us with our son when he was violently taken for me either.� (I meant to have that happen�but I just checked�it�d have to happen at the end of Anuvuin) Caspian is saying, �Yeah�the Empire is sending probe droids out to try to find our Base. So far, nothing�s happened on Yavin.� Gwythaint Forces says, �I doubt that will last long.� R2-7Dorid beeped in agreement. �Well, speaking of Yavin�yikes �we�d better get over there or we�ll be late!� So they all head towards Yavin.
Until next time!
