Callie looked around Mos Eisley as Luke drove the speeder into the town. She frowned when she saw some Storm Troopers walk towards them. "How long have you had these droids?" One of them asked, pointing to R2-D2, C3P-O, and R3-D7.
"About three or four seasons." Luke said.
"They're not for sale if you want them." Obi-Wan added.
"May we please see your identification?" The trooper asked Luke.
"You don't need to see his identification." Obi-Wan said, waving his hand. The storm trooper said the same thing, Obi-Wan then said, "He can go about his business. Move along." The Storm Trooper said it again, and the speeder began to drive towards a cantina.
When they got in, the droids were told to go outside since the owner had a no droid policy.
She stayed near Luke since her master had gone to talk to a Wookie. They sat at the bar when an alien seemed to have a problem with Luke.
"He doesn't like you." A man said to her friend, "I don't like you either. You'd better watch yourself, and your girlfriend too. I'm wanted in twelve systems." Callie blushed a little at that yet put her hand on her lightsaber in case.
"Ok. I'll be careful." Luke said, trying to stay calm.
The man grabbed his shirt, "You'll be dead!" Before Callie could even pull the weapon off of her belt, Obi-Wan had already cut off one of the thug's arms. She went over to Luke who had been knocked onto the ground.
"How many times am I going to say 'Are you ok' today?" She asked as she helped him up.
"I'm fine." He said.
Obi-Wan took them over to a table where the Wookie and a human were waiting. They introduced themselves as Han Solo and Chewbacca. When asked on the cargo to carry on their ship, the Millennium Falcon, to Alderaan, Obi-Wan replied simply, "Just passengers. The boy, the girl, myself, three droids, and no questions asked."
A little later, Luke was trying to sell his speeder to gain some of the money Han had requested, and a few Jawas had brought it.
"I still remember when we built that thing. Too bad it kept breaking down every five moons." Callie said as they walked towards the Falcon. Unknown to them, an Imperial spy was following them.
When they got to the hanger and saw the ship, Luke exclaimed, "What a piece of junk!"
"Just be glad that it's not like those racing pods you and Fixer brought and exploded as soon as they were turned on." Cal said, shrugging. Although, she had to agree that she wasn't sure it would even start up.
"At least we were able to fix them." He responded kind of harshly.
Callie clenched her fist, "You mean after you two had about a month of recovering?"
"At least I didn't get caught in the middle of a Tusken Raider territory fight!" Luke said, turning to her.
"Like I was supposed to know they were going to have a battle that day." She responded, her fists tightening. Did he have to bring that up?
"Will you two stop fighting and just board the Falcon already? Chewie's almost got it ready." Han said as he walked towards them.
"I think that's a good idea." Obi-Wan agreed as he began to walk towards the ship, Callie and Luke soon followed after a short glare at each other.
Callie sighed silently as she walked onto the ship. Why was Luke acting like this? Was it because of his uncle and aunt were murdered by the Empire?
"Do not worry. He's going through a difficult time, but he'll be ok after some time." Obi-Wan said to her as he sat down, tinkering with a small blaster droid that was usually used for training.
"I hope you're right." She replied as she too sat down.
~SW~
The ship shook and Callie snapped awake. She had fallen asleep soon after the Falcon had taken off and Luke had begun to train with the lightsaber. The dream she had was scary and weird. She had been on a planet with mountains, trees, rivers, lakes, and cities. There was some sort of moon that had approached the planet, and in a green light, screams were heard, then nothing. Everything had vanished in a big explosion, almost as if the moon had sent off a beam of energy that blew the planet up.
The Falcon shook again and she got up and walked to the cockpit where she heard Luke's voice say, "Look, he's heading towards that moon."
"That's not a moon, it's a battle station." Obi-Wan said as she entered.
"It's too big to be a battle station." Han said.
"Maybe, but what my master said is true." The boys turned around. They hadn't noticed Callie come in.
"What makes you say that kid?" Han asked.
"Let's just say I saw it in a dream. It wiped out an entire planet."
"Well, looks like your dream was correct, Alderaan was destroyed, or as Han put it: 'blown away'." Luke said as she ship was pulled towards the station.
"What's wrong?" Callie said.
Chewbacca growled as Han began to panic, "I think you're right buddy. Looks like we're caught in a tractor beam."
