Harry Potter and the will of the Force
Space Trash
I looked out of my cockpit and saw the stars literally bluer into long streaks of light. "OK you guys flight lesson one keep it simple stupid. When you fly nothing fancy just keep it simple. So right now let the droids take over and enter a trance just sleep" he said and shut off his radio. "Well I guess we better do as he dose he dose have more experience than us." I said and fell into a trance as well and soon Ron and Hermione must have done the same thing because it was all quiet except for the hum of the hyper drive. And the ocashional chirp from my droid. And for the first time in a long time I felt truly at peace with my self I felt as thow I was back at Hogwarts. I liked it here in the cockpit of a star fighter. As I went deeper I felt my body slow down. I could fell the presences from Gale, Hermione, and Ron. Each was fairly strong due to the close proximity. And then I was completely gone.
When I came two there was a sudden jerking and I was thrown out of my trance. "OW! what just happened?" I heard Ron say. He must of this head on the hard steel cockpit windshield. "I am completely shut down. Restarting all systems give me a minute to get back on line." I heard him say." "Me to!" Hermione said, "Looks like we came across a gravity well and the auto shut off was activated but our course was safe." Gale said also shut down. By now I was already powering my ship up. "This makes know sense. I have traveled this route several times and never once have I been sent into auto shut off." He said as the sub light engines on his ship roared to life. Then we all got back on line. But as soon as we did...
It all just broke loose. We were suddenly being atacked by ships that came from no where. It looked to be about eight to ten of them for now. "Form up and go to attack speed." I heard gale say. We did and we came around on them. "Lock your S-foils into attack position. And set shields double front." He said and I did as I was told "Howell runners out hear but that is way to long for there range the closest planet is at least fifty parsecs." He added I guess I either forgot or we didn't get that. All right you guys this is it the real thing don't think trust your instances." He said. The howl runners opened up on us. The fire was intense and they meant business. I picked one out and opened up on it. I tore threw it's weak shields and it quickly blew up in a massive fireball that went out as soon as it started as the oxygen was tore out of it. We started out OK but we were soon over run by the howl runners. "My shields are down shit!" I heard Ron say as he was sent into a spin and was ejected off course. "NO RON!" I yelled as he disapered from view. It wasn't long before it happened to Hermione then it happened two me my internal compensate got hit right in the middle of a snap roll and I blacked out when some thing blew and I remember felling a sharp pain and then nothing.
When I came too I was floating in a tank with an oxygen mask strapped two me. I felt as thow I had been re stared renewed. Then the tank drained and it opened. I took off the mask and steeped out of the tank and fell on my face. "Hey take it easy their son you've been slipping in and out of consciousness for weeks now. Take it easy." I heard a man's voice say. He then steeped into the light and I looked at him. He looked to be in his mid sixty's with red leathery skin. Long white hair and mustash and a kind look about him. "Where am I?" I stuttered finding it hard to talk with my mouth as dry as it was. "You are on the space colony of Zlpherion. Near the zilpher asteroid belt. This place is a place for the spice miners and low lives that don't want to be seen. "And you my friend are lucky to be alive. You took quite a nasty crash some of the local salvage guys found you in the cockpit of a crashed X-Wing. You were bleeding but it had clotted and that is pretty much how you survived." He said and then it hit me the battle Ron, Hermione, and Gale." How they were all probably dead and that I was strained here on a space station. With out much knowledge of were I was or much less how I was going to get back to earth with out the tracer on my X-Wing it would be impossible for me to get back to earth much less Hogwarts.
"I brought you some new close and your belongings." He said and set them down on a bench and walked out. I looked at the new cloths and on top of them was my belt with my light saber and my survival gear there was a pack of cigarettes and a Zipo with a pheionex emblazoned on it. "For got I had these." I said to my self. I normally don't smoke unless I want to be intimidating or need to calm down. I put on the pants and light blue shirt. And pulled the vest on as well. And I put on my belt. And placed my cigarettes in the inner pocket of the vest and walked out of the door it slid open and I steeped threw and into the next room."
The old man was waiting there. "So I guess you could need a name." He said looking at me with a strange look. I looked for your records but I found nothing on your DNA." He said. "Well then that would be because I am not from any republic planet in the data base. I come from a planet deep from wild space. And my name is Harry Potter." I said walking over to him and shaking his hand. It was hard and callused. "Well Harry my name is Zeberon Carrel. I will enter you into the data basses in case you ever need further medical attention I just need a blood sample and then you are free to go and you are welcome to stay here if you want." He said and held out a pad. I placed my thumb on it and felt a little prick and then I removed it. "I am sorry I can't pay you I haven't got a credit to my name. But if I can ever repay you let me know." I said felling kind of bad because he helped me and saved my life. "It's OK but here take this here is five hundred credits. Take them and try to get your self on you feet and find a way of this hunk of junk." He said handing me a chip. "Thank you." I said. "And if I was you I would keep that light saber hidden the jedi aren't welcome here especially in the lower levels." He said. "Thanks again I will keep that in mind." I said and I unclipped. My light saber and put it in side my vest. And then I walked out of the door. And into the city streets it was very crowded and speeders ran threw the sky and on the ground. And a lot of people walked threw the city streets. I just blended in with the crowd I pulled out a cigarette and my lighter and put it in my mouth and lit it. Taking a drag and exhaling the smoke. It tasted good. I continued to walk along just casually taking a puff every now and then. I saw an old man flagging me down. I walked over to him taking another puff. "You wanted me for something. "Yes you have no weapon every one need's at least a good blaster or slug thrower." He said pulling open a panel in the wall that held many guns. "Yes I carry the best guns on this station. But now that the new upgraded out back has came out nobody wants one of my guns." He said. "Here I will make you a deal any slug thrower you want for fifty credits. All the clips for it twenty credits. And all the slugs I have for it thirty credits. And a holster for twenty-five credits. And this pack for free." He said showing me all of the stuff he was offering. I thought about it for a while and decided that it was a good deal and I couldn't use a light saber here so I bought it and sat down and loaded the ten clips and the one already in the gun. I attached the holster to my belt and placed the beefy gun in it. It had a fairly long handle and a long berale and had a seven round .50 caliber clip in it. And was painted a bright chrome color. And it had a laser pointer on the side of the gun.
I finished my cigarette and dropped it on the ground. Thinking about a way to make money. I saw the cantina and thought that maybe I could make money inside of there or find somebody looking for some one to hirer cause I have to get at least twenty thousand creds to get off the rock with a used ship. I walked in and the doors moved out of my way. I steeped in and walked threw a room were people were playing a card game with quite a few credits thrown down on the table. Gambling wasn't my bag. So I left the room and walked into the main bar. When I noticed a strange Allen girl being harassed by a bunch of thugs two humans and three different aliens. I heard one of them say "Come on now little head tailed freak dance for us." In rather slurred speech. Then she went and shot off in some languish I didn't understand and when one of them went to slap her I got in the way. "Come on now fellows there has to be a better way to solve this than beating up poor defenseless girls now." I said catching the man's hand as he went for her. "Get out of my way. This bitch deserves it!" He said clearly drunk. He reeked of alcohol. Then he pulled a blaster. As he reached for it I motioned for the girl to run for cover as I went for my slug thrower. I heard the bar tender yelling "NO GUNS NO GUNS!" As he ducked behind the bar. The people also ducted. The man got his blaster out first and fired and I fell to the ground to evade and at the same time fired one into the mans chest. He looked stunned and fell over in a pool of his own blood. His friends went for there guns two and I rolled over two a table and turned it over facing them for some cover. His buds then began to shoot at me. And the air stunk with the smell of blaster residue and was charged with the particles fired from each one. I popped up and fired and hit one. He stumbled I shot again he fell. Then I heard a scream from be hind me. I turned to see the alien girl there holding her arm apparently she got shot in the arm. I turned back around and fired two more shots dropping one of the aliens then again I shot and the other human dropped. My clip was empty and the table was about to fall apart. Then I got a bright idea. I hit the eject button and slammed in a new clip. He had to change the power packs on his blaster. I dived out from the table and shot twice dropping him instantly.
I stood up and dusted my self off. And put up my gun and walked over two the girl who got me into this. "Are you OK?" I asked hoping she could speak basic. "Yes, and thank you." She said wincing. Here let me take a look at that wound you got there." I said and she moved her arm. It was just a scratch but the skin around it was charred black from the intense heat. It looked kind of strange her blue skin then black and red and then more black. I took out my survival kit and put some bacta on the cut and then put a bandage over it. "Thanks My name is Dia Nilim." She said. Standing up. "Well I guess that means I am out of the swoop race." She said with a sigh. "Swoop race?" I said looking confused. "You mean you don't even know what swoop racing is were the hell are you from?" She said in a sarcastic voice. "You see that is just the thing. I am from a previously undiscovered planet called earth." I said. "We don't have the same technology as you have. We don't have star fighters or hyper drives or blasters or advanced medical tech. But I was took in as a study and learned a bit about the galaxy and that there is intelligent life obviously." I said. She looked at me as if I was lying. "You sure you didn't hurt your self?" she asked unbelieving me. "Look I am Harry Potter and I don't have the slightest clue as to what you are? I mean I haven't rely met many alien's and I just lost a bunch of friends in a dog fight." I said. "Well then let me fell you in you are in the worst place a new comer to the galaxy could ever be this place isn't very friendly to new comers especially jedi. Ever since a couple of force adepts came threw here caused three kinds of hell and put several hundred in the infirmary. Now as for me I am a twilek My home world is Ryloth a small planet in the mid rim. I am fourteen standard years and am looking for a way off this dump." She said with a shrug of here shoulders "Well that makes two of us." I said "Hey you look like a racer. How would you like a chance at some fast creds?" she said looking at me from head to foot. And I got to look her over she stood about my hight had blue skin and had two tails sprouting from the back of her head. Witch fell to rest around her head. "I would like that if it meant getting off this hunk of space trash." With that we left the bar and went down to the swoop track
We walked in the main office and saw the place was lined with people and simulators and several people were behind counter and several swoop bikes were parked in the middle of the place. We walked up to them and noticed a sign that said in basic "To the winner of the race." "Wow those are the new ZX-1259's they are based from designs dating back to the old republic and are incredibly fast." She said. "Now come on let's go tell them that you are racing for me." She said pushing me over to the counter. "So Dia didn't think that you would show." The man at the counter said. "I almost didn't if it hadn't been for this you man hear but I can't race." She said "Why not?" the man asked. "Well I got shot in the arm and the g's would take me down couldn't hang and I would get my self killed." "So I got him to run for me." She said clapping me on the back. "Shut up and tell us when the race is." She said. "It's at high noon track B" he said. "Now as a new racer I will need a print from you give me your thumb." He said holding out a data pad." I pressed my thumb on it and lifted it up after the light passed twice." "Thank you for your cooperation." He said. Then we left. "Well let's head down to the hanger and let you get a couple practice runs in before the race. She said walking off. I followed and I was really starting to get nervous. "So Dia how did you wind up on this junk pile in the first place?" I asked taking out another cigarette. "Well if you want to know my parents fled from my home world Ryloth when I was a new born. You see my old man was a gambler and my mom was extremely loyal to him even thow our budget was all ways tight. But that is beside the point. We came here because we had to and this aint the best place to grow up. What is that in your mouth?" she asked as I let the cigarette. "Hugh this?" This I said before taking a puff. "Yeah what the hell are you some kind of death stick user?" she asked looking at me like I was crazy. "No nothing like that this is a plant grown on my planet tobacco you dry it and smoke it. Kind of like a death stick but just not as lethal." I said exhaling any remaining smoke. "What ever just so you can drive." She said and we continued down to the track.
When we arrived I saw a huge stadium looked like a muggle baseball dome. Inside you could here the roar of engines and the air was full of Ion particles. "Sounds like the little guys are out there. Well let's go. We walked in and went down to the hanger and she pulled me over to her bike. It was mean looking and the paint had several faded spots in it. "She might not look like much but she will get it done." She said. She motioned for me to get on and I sat down on it and it fit me like a glove. "Hey you look like a natural." Now come here and look at the lay out." She said and led me over to a balcony the track was a large road type course with vertical and loping twisting sections "You stay on the track by electromagnetic runners threw hear you rely cant pass it's near impossible you might hit a repulsor boost but you might loose the pull. So I say don't do it unless you have a death wish." She said. Then a voice came over the intercom and said. "Will all pro level racer please go to the starting gates." "Darn that means that you wont get a practice run you have to race." She said pushing me over to the bike and then breaking down the controls real fast and then we moved it to the starting line.
