Silence. A deafening silence is all that can be heard as a blue ray shield separates the hall of the detention area in an Imperial ship, from the cell that three women occupy. These women are bound to one another by wrist and ankle, kneeling as their captors left them, nearly hog-tied but certainly gagged.
The ship suddenly rocks. Shouts are heard as sirens sound: indicating attackers. The women grow frightened. Thoughts run rampant throughout their minds as they look at one another. What if the ship blows? Whose attacking? Is it the rebellion? Are we saved? Do they even know we are here?
The ray shield deactivates, welcoming an Imperial into the room. His menacing gaze sweeps across the women arrogantly.
"Well, well, well. What have we here. What a merry party you have going on here Senator Amidala. Well...not a Senator any more." Padmé glares at the man. Annoyed at his jabs.
"Don't give me that look, you wench!" his gaze moves to the others "The last remaining Jedi, what. an. Honor…you don't look that good Master Unduli or you either Master Secura. Then again your Order is no more, so what else should I have expected" He smirks arrogantly at the two women.
Luminara looks sad as Aayla tries to snarl at the man through her gag. He rips it off and Aayla gasps. "Captain Tarkin what. an. Honor… I gather that the boarding party is waiting for us. Shall you take us to them?" she smirks triumphantly, having throughly annoyed him.
Tarkin snarls "It's Grand Moff Tarkin to you, Jedi filth! And no, those filthy rebels are being taken care of as we speak." with that he gags her again and stalks off furiously, activating the ray shield once again.
Soon after he left the women hear blaster fire slowly coming closer down the hall. Then a tall figure appears wrapped in a cloak disclosing no information on who it could be. The person quickly takes out the clones and looks toward the cell before stalking over to the ray shield. The figure reaches out a gloved hand and deactivates the shield before stepping into the room. The tall person seems to move with a grace unlike any other and wields a regal pose expertly as they elegantly step over to the prisoners.
The figure deactivates the energy bindings on the women and gently takes off their gags before helping them stand. The figure beckons over to the women as they made their way to the door. As they all walk into the hall the figure produces a few weapons for the women: the Jedis' lightsabers and a Nabooian blaster pistol. Giving each of the women their weapons the rescuer starts gliding down the hall, guiding the women to an escape pod conveniently placed at the end. But before they could open the door to the pod the mysterious figure taps something on their wrist and they all disappear in a bluish-white light.
