Death Star: episode #37 Vader’s Observations
Previously: Samantha left the scene with Darth Vader and Ursula. Vader leaves quickly after they notice Samantha’s gone; saying that since Ursula took over it was her fault. He then left for Tatooine. Owen had also gone to go get Luke’s medication refilled. Owen has to deal with Gryovn at Imperial Security. Then, after Owen’s task has been accomplished, he heads back home, unaware hat as he approaches Tatoine, Vader I in his shadow. Luke and I are also headed back to his house.
We approached Luke’s family homesteads just as Owen landed. But something no one saw was another ship had stayed in Owen’s shadow as they landed. It Was Darth Vader. Rhun and his family are still there. Instead of trying to capture Summoner right away, Vader decides to watch for a little while and then make his move. There was only on problem: the breath mask. People would be able to hear him unless he put it on mute, which is what he did. While everyone was distracted by Owen’s landing, Vader made a run for it and ended up being behind a door, put in a position where he could see and hear everything. Luke turned to me and smiled, “perfect timing…he must have just gotten back.” Now Darth Vader knew who Summoner, Rhun, Own, Marion, and Beru were, but the kids.he had no idea. Oh yeah, he also knew who I was since I came from the school. Vader saw me and says, “Interesting…I wonder how she got here. Must have been one of them that found her and brought her here.” I cone again feel out of place as Luke’s cousins come towards us. ‘You know, I really should be getting home soon.” Luke says, “Yeah, my uncle will help you…I hop.” Darth Vader thinks to himself as Riana and Nicole approach, “the boy and these two girls are either siblings or cousins. Maybe it’s the boy and one girl or whatever.” Vader wanted to figure out who everyone was before he took Summoner to make sure he knew what he was doing. Owen turned to us. “Luke! I need to talk to you a minute.” Luke turns to his uncle and says, “all right, I’ll be right there!” Then he says, “Sorry, it won’t take long.” He runs over to Own. Owen studies Luke for a second, “Luke…what’s wrong?” “Oh it’s nothing…”but Owen knows there’s something bothering him…and it’s not his asthma…it’s something on his mind. “Don’t lie to me, Luke. Something’s bothering you.” Luke looked at his uncle for a second, and then says, “Well, I …you know ho I was going to go out with my friends? I kind of got lost and these sandpeople attacked us. Someone rescued us. He ran across a message in that one droid…and s…some people are in trouble…the droid has some important information or something…and I didn’t do anything about it…a lot of people could die…and I feel kind of bad about it.” Vader has to stop himself from jumping out of hiding…”the tactical plans to the Death Star!” The only reason he doesn’t do this is in hopes to learn more information. Owen says, “That’s natural, Luke, but there’s nothing you can do about it. Bigger and wiser heads than yours will take care of it, I’m sure. It’s not your job. You just accidentally came across something you’re not supposed to. Oh, and Luke…” he hands Luke his inhaler, “be more careful.” Luke nods, “Thanks.” Owen smiles, “now run along.” No one notices the lightsaber Old Band had given Luke that’s now hanging from his belt. As Luke started heading back towards his cousins, and me Vader focused his attention on him. “He’s obviously Owen’s son,” Vader said based on his observations. Vader would somehow have to get a hold of Luke now, too…since Luke had run across the plans and probably knew where thy were. Luke says, “Hey, look!” he held up his inhaler. “Good,” I say. Riana looks a t Luke questiongly, “You have asthma?” He nods. Riana says, “Oh, my best friend at school des, too.” Luke says, “I don’t have it that badly…” Nicole says, “Well that’s nice. Why cant’ by boyfriend be here?” Luke gives Riana a look. “Oh, she has this crush on this guy. She always brings up whenever she’s bored.” Nicole says, “I do not. I only bring him up when I get lonely. He’s a smuggler…his name’s Han Sol. The only reason I came along was in hopes of seeing him. He goes to Tatooine sometimes.” Darth Vader guesses from the conversation that Nicole and Riana are sisters…and cousins to the Luke kid.
