Chapter 3: Vader
A menacing dark figure walked diligently through the halls of the Executor. One of his spies had returned from a mission on the planet Nancuun. A food- shortage was becoming a threat to the ever-growing Imperial army, and the potential new source of food and oil was good news. However, little was known about the Outer Rim world, so Vader had sent two of his men to find the information needed to control the planet with the least trouble. He hadn't expected one of them to return after only two days. Something was wrong.
The door opened at his will, and Lord Vader walked into the room where the spy was now standing. Alone.
"Where is your partner?"
"I killed him, Mylord," the spy answered promptly.
Darth Vader didn't move. He only glared at the spy standing before him. He wasn't getting anywhere with this. "Enlighten me."
"While he and I were at a cantina, a young girl, about 13 or 14 years old, came in. She used the force to lift up my comrade and read his mind. She found out that he was an Imperial spy, and when she discovered his employment under you, I shot him before he could reveal anymore data."
Darth Vader paid little attention to the last few words. Force-strong? "What do you know about the girl?" he demanded.
"She is called Kela, a word that in the ancient language of Nancuun means superior leader. It is said that 4 years ago she exploded a science research center with her sorcery. Since then she has been feared and respected by all the inhabitants of the planet. In a speeder bike she travels solo from village to village, using her influence usually in a positive manner. She has also destroyed entire villages for disobeying her wishes."
Darth Vader considered this revelation. A teenage force-strong world leader. this was too good an opportunity to miss. The possibilities were endless.
"I want this Kela captured and brought here, unharmed."
At that, he turned sharply to exit the room, his capes cascading through the air.
"You have one day."
