Blue Waters: episode #55 Leia's Home and Missing Baby…The Exchange
Previously: Arawn brought the wins to the Emperor. Palpatine was planning to kill them aster he got the midi-cholorian count and force level, but Magg rushed in and grabbed them both. Obi-Wan chased him, and after a life threatening threat form the Emperor, Arawn joined them. During the fight, Magg was able to get Leia away from Arawn. After some more fighting, Obi-Wan got Luke. (Arawn had first gotten Luke and Leia back from Magg). Both Magg and Obi-Wan had taken off with the twin they had. Obi-Wan took Luke to Tatooine in hopes that Owen will take him in.
"Apparently Anakin had already started
using the Dark Side powers before Luke was conceived. It hurt him, hurt him baldy. He has breathing problems. He
was having a real hard time breathing on his own. He almost stopped breathing a
couple times and probably would have if we weren't holding him in the position
he was in. He has asthma…and he won't'
be able to walk unless something's done to his legs."
Own looks at the ground.
"You're asking me to do a
lot. I mean he's not even my son. He has all those medical problems. We're not
very wealthy…at all. And those things
have to be pretty expensive."
"I know, but he'll die if you won't take him. I don't know whom else to go to. Besides
that, Anakin told me you know a little about medicine."
Owen sighs, "I guess I can
take him. What's his name?"
"Luke Owen Skywalker."
"All right. But what
happened to his mother?"
"She's in danger and will
probably get killed. I didn't tell her
that, but she probably will."
My own youngest son was missing when I tried picking him up form
Imperial Security."
"I'm sorry to hear that. I have to get going, I need to visit Bail
Organa and things. Don't let Luke know who his parents are. And the doctor says
he may not live, so I need you to rally try hard to make sure he lives. It'll be tough. Thank you very much for taking him! Just go down to the Imperial center and get custody of him and
all that."
"I'd have to change our
last name in case Anakin tries tracking it. It'll be Lars, but that's only when we need to protect ourselves, our
last name will really still be Skywalker. "
Obi-Wan leaves knowing that
he did ask a lot of Owen, but he was almost certain he would
accept. Now back to the Maurders. Magg had taken Leia to the planet called
Maurder Base. This planet had a poisoned lake located on it. You couldn't even touch the water, or you'd
die. All the tress around this lake are dead. However, there is a special
secret passageway underwater by way of a tunnel. It would lead to the island in the middle of the late, where the
planet headquarters are. The Maurders are very careless with their codes, so
using advanced fining techniques; Obi-Wan was able to track Magg's ship down
easily. Obi-Wan landed his ship on the
island at the same time that Magg emerged from the tunnel opening on the island
with Leia in his arms. Obi-wan took
Magg by surprise and grabbed Leia. He took off for Alderaan at a fast
clip. Magg got in his ship to
case. Obi-Wan tried to outrun Magg, but
his hyperdrive had been strained in the effort to get Luke to safety. Finally,
Obi-wan thinks he's lost Magg.
"One down…one to go…" he
says as he approaches Alderaan.
After landing his ship, he enters the Alderaan palace. Bail is
there with Wedge, his wife, and Correon. (Correon had come over to see Bail's new baby.)
As Obi-wan approached with Leia, Bail says, "What's this?"
'Samantha had her baby a
month early…and this is her daughter, Leia."
Correon says,
"Samantha was pregnant? I didn't
know."
Bail nods, "and I'm to
raise it because she's in danger with the Empire."
Obi-wan says, "You can tell
no one of this."
Bail then says, "My wife
and I are taking Wedge to the Adoptive agency. Keep an eye on Leia for me. I'll be back soon."
Obi-Wan says, "I'll be on
Tatooine if you ever need anything, Bail. If Leia is ever in any trouble, she can contact me on Tatooine."
He nods.
"Thanks."
"Thanks for taking her…I
know it's a lot to ask of you."
Bail and his wife leave with Wedge.
Obi-wan then turns to Correon, "Listen, I'm going back to
Tatooine."
Then Oibd-wAn leaves. After he does, Correon takes Leia and puts
her in the crib. 5 minutes later, Magg
lands. He enters the room and goes
straight for Leia. Correon's sleeping.
Magg grabs Leia fro the second time. He
takes off with her and hides in the shadows. Correon and several of the palace guards have been stirred by this
noise. It had been announced to the
entire planet that Bail had had a daughter named Leia by now. So when they
entered the room, they immediately saw the empty crib. They woke Correon up.
"She's gone."
"What?"
he rushes over to the crib.
"Bail's going to kill
me. She's been kidnapped, no
doubt. Listen, I'd better be going."
Magg sneaks off in the
shadows with Leia, laughing. "
They'll never know!"
He has this smile on his
face as he takes off in his ship, this time heading for Anuvuin.
Until next time!
