A/N This chapter is really short but I wanted to give you guys something while I update my other stuff.


BEN There's nothing you could have done, Luke, had you been there. You'd have been killed, too, and the droids would be in the hands of the Empire.

LUKE I want to come with you to Alderaan. There's nothing here for me now. I want to learn the ways of the Force and become a Jedi like my father.

"I knew he'd be like his old man!" shouted Ahsoka. Everyone giggled which helped lighten the mood slightly.

EXT. TATOOINE - WASTELAND

The Landspeeder with Luke, Artoo, Threepio, and Ben in it zooms across the desert. The speeder stops on a bluff overlooking the spaceport at Mos Eisley. It is a haphazard array of low, grey, concrete structures and semi-domes. A harsh gale blows across the stark canyon floor. Luke adjusts his goggles and walks to the edge of the craggy bluff where Ben is standing.

BEN Mos Eisley Spaceport. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious.

"You're supposed to be hiding, yet you know that" said Anakin.

"How often do you pop in there?" asked Ahsoka.

"He gets out often enough some random moisture farmers know him as an old wizard" said Palpatine.

Ben looks over at Luke, who gives the old Jedi a determined smile.

"Yeah, Obi Wan sucks at hiding" said Padmé.

EXT. TATOOINE - MOS EISLEY - STREET

The speeder is stopped on a crowded street by several combat- hardend stormtroopers who look over the two robots. A Trooper questions Luke.

TROOPER How long have you had these droids?

Aw crap thought Mace

LUKE About three or four seasons.

BEN They're for sale if you want them.

"Smart, he is" mumbled Yoda.

TROOPER Let me see your identification.

Luke becomes very nervous as he fumbles to find his ID while Ben speaks to the Trooper in a very controlled voice.

BEN You don't need to see his identification.

"Classic Kenobi mind trick" mumbled Anakin with a smirk.

TROOPER We don't need to see his identification.

BEN These are not the droids your looking for.

"Another Iconic line" said CrystalQueen.

TROOPER These are not the droids we're looking for.

BEN He can go about his business.

TROOPER You can go about your business.

BEN (to Luke) Move along.

TROOPER Move along. Move along.

EXT. TATOOINE - MOS EISLEY - STREET

The speeder pulls up in front of a rundown blockhouse cantina on the outskirts of the spaceport. Various strange forms of transport, including several unusual beasts of burden, are parked outside the bar. A Jawa runs up and begins to fondle the speeder.

THREEPIO I can't abide these Jawas. Disgusting creatures.

Anakin let out a long sigh.

As Luke gets out of the speeder he tries to shoo the Jawa away.

LUKE Go on, go on. I can't understand how we got by those troopers. I thought we were dead.

BEN The Force can have a strong influence on the weak-minded. You will find it a powerful ally.

"That's true" said Kit Fisto.

Anakin did say it only worked on the weak minded thought Padmé.

LUKE Do you really think we're going to find a pilot here that'll take us to Alderaan?

BEN Well, most of the best freighter pilots can be found here. Only watch your step. This place can be a little rough.

LUKE I'm ready for anything.

THREEPIO Come along, Artoo.

"And now we're going to a random catina on Tatooine" said Palpatine annoyed.

"Yeah, this movie probably is a little slow moving" said Padmé.

"Well, I'm interested" said Ahsoka. "Not just because it's our galaxy's future"

"Me too" agreed Anakin. "Not just because the main character is my kid"
