(The next day)
The entire family was onboard a shuttle driven by 2 droids, taking them to space to spend the day in orbit. It excited them, it wasn't something they could do at home. They left the planets atmosphere and saw a bustling spaceport with ships coming and going from a massive space station which had 2 imperial star destroyers docked to it. Near it were several other large ships as well as an exact copy of lucys castle from the ground.
"That station is Lucy 1, her majesty's castle and flagship up here. This station here is outpost litwak, it's a bustling trading hub for the Lucy and galactic empires. The ship with the brown swirls is your destination, the oasis, formerly the Tarkins revenge. It was a gift to the smoreline family for being her majesty's most loyal supporters during the war. It's converted. Next to it is the queen bees vessel, the wasp" said the droid pilot
"It's so cool up here" said Lincoln "So the royals are just letting us stay here for the day?"
"We can assure you your machine is being inspected today and repaired as quickly as possible. A trip to the city isn't complete without a trip to space. And they're not afraid of you messing with the smorelines ship. You 13 aren't big enough a crew to crew it, it'll take several hundred minimum to make a destroyer move"
"All services are automated onboard, you don't even have to do anything. Enjoy yourselves"
The droids landed the shuttle in the main hangar bay of the oasis and let the louds be themselves. There was a pool, spa, recreation area, cafeteria, among many other things. The kids definitely had fun exploring the ship and playing in the pool. The older family members enjoyed the spa, which was automated. There was plenty of food for lunch too. At one point, Lynn and Rita enjoyed a private moment on the bridge, looking out into space.
"Sure is a pretty view" said Rita
"Not as pretty as you. This is definitely not something we could do at home" said Lynn
"Guess it wasn't a complete waste being sent here. Especially after yesterday" said Rita
Elsewhere on the ship, Lola was walking when she saw Lynn jr running around. She mentioned something earlier about simulators for vehicles aboard the ship. She decided to follow her, to make sure she found them, which Lynn didn't seem to mind. Eventually they made their way to a tunnel and entered what Lynn was sure was a simulator, but Lola wasn't sure. She didn't have time to question it as the door sealed shut, leaving them in something called an AT-AT Walker.
"Lynn, I'm not sure this is the simulator" said Lola as the 2 went into the cockpit
"It has to be, I know it" said Lynn
She pushed a few buttons to power on the Walker, and hit a few more which made the Walker shake and move. A small ship flew out into space and attached the vehicle to its underside.
"Standby for deployment" a voice told them
The Walker shook more as it was taken off the ship and down to the surface, which Lynn described as very realistic.
"Come on Lola, enjoy yourself. The droids said this vehicle was used by the bad guys, must've been part of some training thing to destroy the city. Could be fun" said Lynn
Lola reluctantly looked at the controls and decided to go along with this. Maybe this was fake, maybe what she was seeing wasn't real. The ship carrying them dropped them just outside the city. With the pulling of a few levers and pulling some triggers, they moved the Walker and fired at buildings. Lola did admit she found shooting the laser machine guns at people amusing. For people who weren't real, they sure were lifelike on the video screen. She pretended they were people who made her mad.
"Take that building. And take that car. Feel the wrath of Lynn jr" Lynn shouted
An imperial tie fighter flew in front of them and began firing, but a quick blast of the heavy cannons took it out easily.
(Back at the castle)
"Ah, peace and quiet" said Ralph
"Nothing but a nice quiet lunch with the whole family here" said Vanellope
"I enjoy these moments of peace" said Kevin
"Especially with that family not here" said Rancis
As the family ate, a droid rushed in.
"Rogue Walker attacking the city. Unsure of where it came from but the imperial garrison is engaging it" the droid reported
"Rogue Walker? Send in some fighters, help the garrison. Blasted space pirates must've stolen one and are getting back at me" said Lucy
"I think we should check this out" said Ralph
(Back with Lynn and Lola)
The 2 had managed to destroy a small portion of the city. Small scout walkers and stormtroopers were sent to attack them, which they assumed was part of the simulator, possibly rebels in disguise. The guns made short work of them. Another AT-AT Walker was deployed in the distance, and it too began firing at them. They also made short work of the Walker. A few blasts to the head with the heavy cannons disabled it long enough for them to make the killing blows, sending the Walker crashing into a large building, taking it down in the process.
"Woo, takedown 2 points" said Lynn
"That's right, run. Feel the wrath of Lola loud" Lola shouted
Queen Lucy sent droid bombers and gunships to disable or bring down the Walker, but Lola took notice of them and she and Lynn fired the laser machine guns at them. Each one they took down destroyed an entire building. Running out of options, Lucy herself made a charge for the walkers legs, using her lightsaber to cut off one of the legs. It took several minutes, but she was able to bring the behemoth down. Ralph ripped the top of the head off and looked inside to see Lola and Lynn.
"Wait, this was all real?" Lynn asked
"I told you something was wrong" Lola shouted
Ralph grabbed the 2 kids.
"YOU BOTH ARE IN A HEAP OF TROUBLE!" Ralph angrily shouted
(Back at the castle, sometime later)
The royals were furious. Part of the city lied in ruins, there was so much damage. This was the final breaking point, the louds were being kicked out of the castle.
"We have an apartment set up for you til your machine is fixed, the earliest will be Tuesday. Well give you a thousand Litwak dollars which should be more than enough to sustain you til you leave. And you will be monitored" said Vanellope
"And to think I thought there was good in you, Lola. And I shared my life story with you. You make me sick" Lucy told Lola
"I'm sorry" said Lola sadly
"Now get out of my house. We now have 2 days to fix the damages and try to still have our city celebration party. I hope you're happy" said Rancis angrily
The louds were then escorted from the castle by the droids to be taken to their temporary apartment. They all felt bad. If only there was a way to make up for their mistakes.
