Death Star: episode #4 The Queen and the meeting We were still in that room. We had just heard a very interesting and strange conversation: “All right,” says the superintend, “you seem to have met all the job qualifications for this job. You are hired and can begin work as soon as Monday!” With that Mr. Idiot and the superintend walked out after turning around so they weren’t walking backwards. (Thought I should mention that because Mr. Idiot would be the type that might walk backwards.) That is when the 3 of us decided we should keep an eye on him...Just in case! Anyway, in another place and what would seem like another time if you didn’t know in reality it was the same time, some Ewoks were gathered on a planet called Endor. Their job: To protect the queen of the Old Republic. The Empire and the Maurders must not know of this. A meeting was to be held on Endor, A meeting about what to do about the Empire. They are considering about what their Rebellion can do trying to get their freedom back. It had been almost 20 years since the galaxy was free. That is a long time. Gwydion Jedi, Sally Jedi, Tim Jedi, Caspian Jedi, and Beru Skywalker are the only ones that know Queen Samantha Jedi is still alive. It is a secret kept from everyone else. Oh, forgot the Ewoks who also know! Gwydion is Samantha’s adopted brother. Beru is Samantha’s adopted sister. So that means Gwydion and Beru are brother and sister. Tim and Sally are Samantha’s parents. Caspian is Samantha’s younger brother. There are others in the Rebellion as well. But those are the people traveling between Endor and Alderaan to talk to Samantha because Samantha must remain on Endor. During the meeting, Gwydion said he knew of a person by the name of Dash Corta who is a Rebel that could go undercover and try and figure out what the Maurders were up to. It was obvious something was up with them! They all agreed that that was a sound plan. After that, the meeting broke up and people would go and talk to Samantha individually, since they couldn’t see her too often to try to make sure the Maurders and the Empire didn’t grow too suspicious. So, the people talked to her until there were two left to talk with: Gwydion and Beru. Since e they were in a line, Gwydion was next. “So,” says Gwydion who shared a secret with her that few others knew about, “do you think there’s any hope left for finding your kids.” “I don’t know, Gwydion,” she said. “Obi-Wan never came back. Got no news. Apparently neither did my ex. We would have heard had they did. I think we should give up the search. They are gone, Gwydion...I don’t like to admit it, but I’m going to have to.” Gwydion nodded. They finished their conversation and Gwydion walked off. Beru was next in line. “Hey Samantha, your majesty. I wish this meeting could have lasted longer! I swear! I'll have to go back to my stupid little family. I mean I love Owen and everything, it’s his nephew I can’t stand. That boy, that nephew is so stupid! I have to hit him to make him understand anything! I’m just glad he’s no blood related to me in any way! Only by marriage! His stupid parents just had to die during the Clone Wars!” “Beru, a lot of people died then. A lot of people lost their parents during that. You don’t know how lucky you are. At least you have a child to come home to while I don’t!” Samantha started crying. Beru felt embarrassed. They finished their conversations and Beru prepared to go back home, although she didn’t want to. Until next time! To be continued!
