Jedi Stories: episode #3 The Maurders
This story brings us to the Maurders bustling about at this time. With that in mind, let the story begin! This is Jedi Stories, episode 3. The Maurders had been around for a while now. As old as the Republic itself, it was. The Maurders did not consider themselves as part of the Republic, though they were...in a way. They lived on several planets, dominating one dark corner of the galaxy (or should I say orange corner.) It was know all across the galaxy that the Maurders color and symbol was bright orange, although no one knew why anymore. They just stuck with it and they held to it. Now the Maurders were for the most part stupid people! Lead by Mr. Orange Idiot. That is his name, I’m serious. Unlike the Jedi Knights of the galaxy, Maurders heave no special power. Anyway, all of that, you should know. It is relevant to the later events! Mr. Orange Idiot knew that the Skywalker (a certain line of them) was important. He was too stupid to realize why, though. HE knew that Elliot Skywalker would be a very powerful person to have on their side and if they had him mate with tons of female Maurders, why they could raise a whole army! Only trouble is Mr. Orange Idiot didn’t know what would happen...Anyway Mr. Orange Idiot had Stu Stupid (that was his name!) Go and try to get Elliot on their side, so, Stu went off and got the address of where Elliot lives. Stu says to himself, while looking at the address, “Wow. Alderaan. Cool.” he flew his spaceship to the planet, not having any problems along the way. It was peacetime and had been...for years. Only once before had there been a war. That was like a thousand years ago! Too long ago to be thought much of. Stu looked at the planet as he was coming in on it. Alderaan is the capital of the Republic and the center of the Jedis. Stu thought he had better watch himself because of that fact. He didn’t like the thought of a lightsaber on him very much! Stu went and landed the ship. There were no landing information procedures, there had never been. No need. Everything was just fine. Stu got off the ship, rented a landspeeder to Elliot’s house. “Wow, nice place,” thought Stu. He knocked on the door. A young man about 25 answered the door and opened it. “Hello,” greeted Stu. “Good day,” answered Elliot. “What could I do for you today?” “Listen, man, you the only one home?” “Yeah.” “Great! When is your family returning?” “Don’t know. A while yet.” “Good, I need the time. I have to talk to you.” “What about/” “Allow me to introduce myself. I am Stu Stupid, second Maurder in command. My boss, the Maurder leader has expressed an interest in you. We would be obliged if you would join us.” “Me? What for?....” “The Maurders, we’re a great thing you know. Been around as long as the Republic and almost as long as the Jedi Knights. You know. We are going to try to defeat the Republic.” “You’re crazy then! No one could ever defeat the Republic!” “Maybe not, but we sure have a good chance. We’ve got information that might lead to something big. The Roots of the Republic. We were exploring one of the planets we had never gotten around to exploring today and found something interesting. Actually a probe we sent there did. We’re checking into it. We think it might hold some old Republic secrets from before the war. We can’t be sure...but it’s worth checking out.” That last bit of information moved Elliot. He was very interested. “All right,” he said. “I’ll join the Maurders.” Stu smiled and said, “Mr. Orange Idiot will be pleased, very pleased!” That’s all for now! Until next time! By the way, story takes place right before the last one did....
