Death Star: episode #9 Rhun, Marion, Yoda, Obi-Wan, Wicket, and the Banthas
Vader smiled under his mask. “And I haven’t told you the best part yet, one of them is here!” The Emperor just stared at Vader in amazement, in total shock. At the same time as all of this, on the planet of Tatooine, Owen is sitting by his front door, taking a short break from a hard day’s work when a man and his wife sneaked up behind Owen. Owen, sitting there, suddenly heard a loud shout, sounding right into his ear! He whirled around to see the face of a man he once knew...but couldn’t quite place. Somehow that face had changed from the last time he had seen it. The man had screamed right into Owen’s ear. “Hello, brother. Sorry, I didn’t meant to scare you there.” At once Owen knew who faced him: His older brother Rhun and his wife Marion. “Rhun, it’s been forever...” “I know,” said Rhun, “I thought I’d come back and see how the old family is doing. Say, old Anakin’s not around, is he?” Owen took a deep breath, then said, “I guess it’s really been a long time. “No,” (shaking his head), “Anakin is...well, how should I put this, I guess you could say he’s dead...R. But, it’s great to see you again!” Marion was then introduced to Owen. “Listen, Beru is out with my...well you’ll see. They’ll be back soon.” You see Rhun had always liked Owen, but their other brother, Anakin he had hated and couldn’t stand the site of. Rhun and Marion had had two kids together. Rhun says, “dad should be coming, as should our daughters.” Riana and Nicole Skywalker were their names. Anyway, the same time as all this, we must venture to the Planet Dagobath. A creature whose name and species were the same. The last of them, Yoda was. He loved his swampy homeland. He had lived and trained Jedi there for the past 800 years, except for the past 18. Yoda was just sitting there, meditating, when he felt a presence of one he knew well. He opened his eyes and looked up. Obi-Wan Kenobi was standing there. Obi-Wan was not looking forward to this, but he thought it had been long enough. They had last seen each other 18 years ago. They had been friends for years. But that had changed. “Yoda, I came here after all these years. I’m sorry, I really am. What happened was my fault, and my fault alone. I tried...and failed.” Yoda said, “ I thought you were dead. You should have come back and at least told me you’re alive. And what about them.” “That was my second failure, my teacher. The Maurders got them and Palpatine’s people got their hands on them, I tried to stop them, but I’m afraid I probably failed; the Emperor didn’t kill them because the Maurders were also there. I don’t know what happened. All I know is I fought with two people that night...I must go now, back to Tatooine. I just thought you should know those things.” And with that Obi-Wan turned and left, leaving Yoda alone, once again. At the same time, on Endor, the Rebel meeting has just broken up; an Ewok who is Samantha’s best friend and personal bodyguard is looking for her. He knows there was a meeting. At the same time, on a different section of Tatooine, the Bantha’s are gathered. Mr. Bantha is the leader. The Banthas all work for the Empire, but since Mr. Bantha is at the Imperial meeting, Mr. Bantha’s wife (Mrs. Bantha) must take over. The other import out Bantha’s are as follows: Bantha, Bantha Bob, Bantha Stephanie, (the Emperor’s wife), Bantha Joe, Bantha Long Hair, Fat Bantha, Preppie Bantha, Wild Bantha, and of course Mr. and Mrs. Bantha. On a far off planet that no one knows about lives people from before the Clone Wars who know nothing about the outcome...Until next time!
