I've watched Star Wars: Vader Immortal and it was so AWESOME!

I don't own Star Wars Rebels or its characters, but Lisa and my other OCs I own only.

Enjoy!

Sparks of Rebellion

Chapter 25: Smuggler's Blues

Inside the Royal Palace of Theed...

Lisa was writing down on her diary at the vast royal library collection in a tower that was at the back of the Theed Royal Palace.

"Dear Diary, a few things have changed since the incident on Onoam. I am now officially a true Queen of Naboo after Panaka's death and can have the power to help my people though I'm still trying to recover from that horrible event. However I feel most of the times that things are getting worse for the galaxy. Ezra learned that his parents died after they staged a breakout at their prison to help other rebel fighters to escape. I know that feeling well to lose someone very close to you and yet have so much responsibilities in your hands. I'm definitely glad that I have my cousins Ryoo and Pooja. They are like older sisters to me. I know my Aunt Sola and Uncle Darred love me like my dad does. But at times I feel like an outsider in my family and is not because I am force sensitive. Despite my friendship with my cousins, I still wish I had a brother or sister of my own. Somebody that I can feel more close to. Sometimes I feel like a part of me is missing..."

The blonde haired girl let out a sigh as she stopped writing and checked the view outside the window.

The sun was setting red and gold over the shimmering lake of Theed's palace when a starship entered the atmosphere of Naboo and descended into the capital's spaceport.

Lisa stood up and picked up a book about crystals from one of the shelfs before sitting back down to read it.

As the young queen read the book, one of the pages earned her interest.

The Bright Star was a crescent-shaped crystal and the most sacred artifact of the Mustafarians. Long before the rise of the Galactic Empire, it was stolen by Lady Corvax, who wanted to harness its energy to power her Aeon Engine and restore her dead husband to life. Instead, the Bright Star released powerful energies that turned the green and bountiful Mustafar into a hellish wasteland. Thereafter, Corvax kept the artifact hidden in her sanctum in Mustafar.

Lisa simply stopped reading and closed the book, now feeling completely bored.

"The day is almost done."Lisa commented with a frown. "I really need to get some fresh air."

In the Theed...

The starship that landed in the spaceport was known as the Windfall.

A fifteen year old boy known as Rowan was fixing the repairs of the starship.

Rowan had green eyes and messy ash blond hair with a single strand protruding upwards from the center of his head. He wore plain-white tunic with the V-shaped collar underneath his dark blue jacket and wore black trousers beneath with grey shoes.

A yellow tan feminine droid known as ZOE3 went down the ramp of the Windfall to check on the young captain.

"Captain, how long until the repairs are done?"ZOE3 asked. "We aren't supposed to be here. This planet is the Emperor's home."

"Almost done, Zoe."Rowan assured. "Then we will be leaving in no time at all."

"Is everything alright here?"

Rowan and ZOE3 notice Lisa approaching.

Lisa wore a tan jumpsuit with a deep blue vest with dark brown boots and fingerless brown gloves.

"Yeah."Rowan answered with a smile. "We are just trying to repair our ship. It took some damage after we escaped the Hutts."

"Excuse me, Mr I spill my guts to total strangers!"ZOE3 scowled. "We are not supposed to give intel! We are smugglers!"

"It's okay."Lisa responded with a smirk. "If you guys hate the Empire then we're on the same side."

"Cool, would you like to help us repair our ship?"Rowan asked.

"Sure, why not?"Lisa chuckled.

"Great."ZOE3 muttered in a unhappy tone.

Lisa started helping Rowan and ZOE3 repair the Windfall.

"Your ship is really impressive."Lisa admitted. "Though it would need a defence shield to prevent it from bigger hits during fights."

"I know, surprisingly I'm the captain of the ship and zoe is the co-pilot."Rowan stated proudly.

"It was more beautiful when we first stole it."ZOE3 commented.

"Zoe!"Rowan scowled.

"What?"ZOE3 questioned. "We did."

"So you guys actually stole this ship?"Lisa asked in curiosity.

"Well, after my dad got captured by the Empire, we successfully stole the ship to avoid any worst punishments after we failed to pay to the Hutts."Rowan explained with a frown.

"I'm sorry."Lisa apologised.

"It's okay."Rowan assured. "The Empire is always capable of bringing pain to others."

Lisa placed some credits in Rowan's hands.

"Your giving us credits?"Rowan asked in surprise.

"You hardly know us, blondie."ZOE3 reminded.

"There are moments that are not always about ambition or excitement."Lisa admitted. "Sometimes it's about helping people in need. I hope someday you get to know how it feels to do something good."

Rowan smiled. "Thank you, umm..."

"Lisa."Lisa said. "My name is Lisa."

"Rowan."Rowan replied and shook Lisa with his free hand.

Not long after, the Windfall was fixed which meant it was time for Rowan and ZOE3 to leave.

"I hope we see each other again soon."Rowan stated.

"You will, one place and then another."Lisa joked.

Rowan and Lisa chuckled at each other.

"Hey, captain!"ZOE3 called out. "It's time for us to leave!"

"Coming!"Rowan answered and rushes to the ramp. "See you around, Lisa!"

"See ya, captain."Lisa remarked with a salute.

The ramp went up and the Windfall took off from the spaceport as Lisa watched while her tied up hair moved a little from the wind.

Once the Windfall was out of sight, Lisa began to head back to the palace.

There weren't any stormtroopers around since Lisa ordered them to take the day off so that she would secretly help someone without dressing up as the Queen of Naboo.

But something else was on Lisa's mind that made her concern.

"So weird that I felt the force so strong with Rowan."Lisa thought in concern. "He must be someone special..."

Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter:)
