Endor: episode #17 Proposals and engagements
Previously: Walker and the others have gone partway up the hill as kind of an exploration type thing.
Walker, after
making sure that Sky is all right, says, ""Sky do you mind if I talk with
you alone…some where (glancing around) private? I really must talk to you. It is urgent…and you are my best
friend."
Sky looks puzzled.
"Of course, Walker."
They go a little ways out into the woods.
Then Sky says, "Now what is this
about, Walker?"
Walker,
not exactly looking at Sky, but past her says, "Sky…Sky…(with a smile) I…ah
just anted to tell you something. You
want us to bee good friends as we always been. But I can't desire that any
longer."
Sky looks confused. Walker continues, not
bearing to face her.
"I was hoping that…I could call you something
infinitely more. (Without hesitation,
but rushed, as if he's afraid if he doesn't say the words he may lose his
moment of courage.) Sky, will you marry
me?"
Sky looks very
pleased
"Of course,
Walker! I was waiting for you to ask
me. I was hoping you would and was
beginning to think you never would."
"So, you love me then? It's settled. Soon as we get settled, we
will marry."
While Sky is talking to Walker, Jed and I
are left alone.
Jed purposed
to I, "I, I truly love you.and.please say yes to this…I must ask this even if
you hate me for it afterward, but will you marry me?"
I says, "Of course, Jed!"
Similar things take place between all
members of the group with the people I said they went with in an earlier
episode (refer to chapter #8) There are certain people in the group that look
like they're up to something…and that is probably because they are. These
people are as follows; Fe, Stu, Vey, Ett, Pid, and Har plus a few of the other
unnamed people.
Fe says to
Stu, "Where are those two. We never got to use those rafts Id instructed
us to build. The current from the storm was too strong! We had better go and find them "
once we
crashed" They gave us the signal as soon as we saw them."
Su, Vey, Ett, Pid, and Har (and the others)
are all on the look out for someone (actually two persons…Id and Iot.)
Vey says, "I
don't see them anywhere.
(They have all worked to the edges of the
group now and are working themselves away for a quick and easy escape. They can
soon see the path of I and Iot as the trampled grass gives it away. They race
up the mountain and are drawn to the strange light. They figure that that's where Id and Iot are after they discover
they can put their entire arm in there, hitting nothing. They all run at the
lights. Meanwhile, the Maurder Gnats go back to where the light thingy is
because one of the Maurders has forgotten the little supply pack for injured
Maurders. AS they go back, Fe, Stu,
Vey, Ett, Pid, Har, and the few others, can be seen. They all quickly go over
to them and the Maurder Gnats make them say their promise to become a Maurder
like they did to Id and Iot.
They all
agree, and then Id announces to everyone, "Iot, this is a perfect opportunity
to ask something of you. Will you marry
me?"
Iot joyfully grabs at her brother and says,
"Of course I will, darling."
The Maurders all cheer. Then they realize
that they must be back on their way, so they march back off to the general
location of the Hutts. At this same moment that Gungan has gone a little
distance when he hears the Maurders behind him. He quickly jumps into a more dense area of the forest and hopes
to divulge the Maurder Gnat's plan to everyone…by telling a Wookiee…. but does
he succeed? Find out next time! Until next time!
