STAR WARS:
RENEGADES AFTER ENDOR
AN: I'm abandoning A/Ns for a while... because of laziness after this one. We're going to see lots of EU characters from stuff, and more.... *yaaaaaaawn* sorry, just a little tired. Oh yeah, this chapter is just sorta filler... I'm gonna take a break from Renegades for a little bit. :( Don't worry, I'm working on more SW stuff. :) Anyway,on to the story!
Disclaimer: No offense, but these disclaimer thingies suck. You know the drill...
CHAPTER 4:
Twin Suns
Tatooine burned under twin suns. The sweltering, seemingly lifeless, planet housed many occupants, accustomed to the harsh, less than welcome environment. A few old, wealthy families burned on the surface of this forbidden rock, though.
One such family was the Darklighters. Huff Darklighter was an extremly affluent man with an estate on Tatooine. The family was not spared of losses in the Galactic Civil War, as Biggs Darklighter died in the trenches of the first Death Star, making the ultimate sacrifice...
A 14 year old boy, Gavin, of this family thought about Biggs constantly, and wished to follow in his footsteps as a pilot for the Alliance. Biggs had been good friends with the famed Luke Skywalker, who fired the proton torpedoes that blew up the Death Star. Luke also came from a moisture farm on Tatooine, hunting womp rats, so Gavin could dream...
But right now he was going out for a ride on his landspeeder. Gavin would be gone for at least two hours, but didn't bother informing his father, Huff Darklighter. He won't care... Won't even notice I was gone when I come back.
Stepping in the cockpit, he fired up the repulsorlifts, and heard the resulting whine. He checked out all his equipment, including the blaster he had rigged up to the right of him, and started the engine.
Moving along at a good clip, he eventually came to a desert plain, a favorite practice area for his piloting skills. With the several rocks, there would be obstacles, and womp rats abounded, though he rarely hit one. No, today he would keep going to his destination and not get sidetracked.
"Cross your fingers, sweetheart, we're gonna need all the luck we can get," said Han Solo.
"I thought Corellians didn't believe in odds," Leia replied, stepping below to the bottom gun turret. Chewbacca manned (or wookie-ed, heh) the top turret.
The Corellian ex-smuggler put the old "hunk of junk" through some amazing stunts, evading Imperial Twin Ion Engine (TIE) Fighters/Interceptors.
"We're in for a ride..." Solo muttered.
