.Some time has passed after two rebel droids crashed on the two sun planet. It didn't take long to be captured by Jawas and sold to Luke's family. After finding a secret recording, meeting up with old Ben, his home that he'd known all his life attacked with uncle and Aunt found dead. He decided to go with the old Jedi, for there was nothing for him here anymore. And with that, his journey begins, and he will soon meet new people who will change his life forever.
Back with Blake. She, Solo, and Chewie minded their own business at the Cantina. The other day they did a local job for easy pocket money, this time looking for a job, and this one looks more hostile than the one she was at one was more hostile then Mozes. She and her partners were there for some time, waiting for an opportunity.
"So, are you sure we will find someone here?" Blake asked Han, who drinks his cup full of Jawa juice.
"We will," Solo replied. "In places like these, there's always someone who needs something.
Blake sits silently and just drinks the water she ordered while ignoring some of the looks people were giving her, some even gave a dirty look that made her want to draw her blade on.
She saw Chewie talking to an elderly man in a brown robe, he must have gotten someone to accept a deal. It would go well, but something else got her attention where the bar patrons were. There she saw two people, some kind of alien and a horribly disfigured human, giving a young man no older than her problems.
"Wonder why they're bothering him?" Blake Asked herself.
Blake saw the alien of the two through shoved the blond man roughly to the ground after the elderly man tried to talk things down. Blake was about to go in to help. But then the elderly man took out something in his hand. A blue blade came out, with an impressive speed of a veteran Huntsman, he deflected a laser bolt at close range before cutting the aliens arms off.
Blake watched in shock the old man, even though she just saw him badly beat the guy she could tell he was skilled and experienced. What shocked Blake more was how everyone went from staring to going back to what they were doing with the musicians going back to playing.
"What the!?" Blake started surprised while Solo just remained calm but looked intently at the older man. "The guy just got his arm cut off, and everyone just acting like nothing happened!?"
"In these places." Solo began. "That's normal," he informs her. 'But that weapon he used,' he thought to himself as anyone with two brain cells can recognize that weapon.
Black just sighed and thought mentally why she should be surprised by this after all she has seen. She leans back into her seat, it really will take a while before she is used to all the stuff about being a smuggler.
Soon Chewie came back and told them about the two that needed a ride to the Alderaan system. The ones who needed it were the boy and elderly man that caused a commotion earlier.
"Well, this should go well," Han says.
"Let's hear what they have to say first before passing judgment," Blake said to the man. Han raised a hand slightly in mock surrender.
"Alright, let's talk to them," Solo replied, he had a feeling this might be interesting.
Blake looks at the two approaching them. She was curious about them, especially on the elderly man with what she assumes is a powerful laser sword. One that could block blaster bolts and cut people in two with minimal effort. Plus, add with that demonstration he performed at the bar, he had to be interesting, that's for sure. But she also will have her guard up while she's around them.
A few moments later, the Wookie took Ben and Luke to where Han and Blake booth, and they took their seats on the opposite sides of them.
Blake had a better look at the two now that they were closer to them. The older man certainly looked his age, a kind face that gave off a grandfather vibe to it, but his blue eyes held the true story of a man that has seen much. With the skill he showed, it reminded her of old Huntsman that you don't mess with. She then looked over at the young man that looked her age and had to admit he indeed wasn't bad looking and rather easy on the eyes.
The cat Faunus had to real in her thoughts and figure out where the hell did that came from.
She stopped staring when Solo started speaking.
"Han Solo." The smuggler introduced himself. "Captain of the Millennium falcon. Chewie here tells us your looking for passage to the Alderaan system."
"Yes, indeed," The Elder confirms, "if it's a fast ship." Ben points out to condition.
Solo looked almost insulted. "Fast ship? You've never heard of the millennium falcon?"
"Should I have?" Ben asked a little challengingly.
"It's actually an impressive ship," Blake says in her opinion. Still, cone to think of it, other then the Falcon she hasn't seen much in the way of starships. Other than the massive triangle-shaped ships the Empire use. And there more massive then any ship atlas could produce safely with what resources they have.
"It's the ship that made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs." Solo boasted. Ben looked interested, seeing this Solo went on then. "I've outrun Imperial starship not the local bulk cruisers mind you, I'm talking about the big Corellian ships now." Luke was thinking about that and honestly sounded impressive. "She fast enough for you old man, so what's the cargo?"
"Only passengers myself, the boy, two droids." Ben began. Blake was about to ask something on this but was soon stopped as Ben leaned forward, looked closely at them. "And no questions asked," the old man says the last part seriously.
Blake shuts her mouth at that, deciding to keep her question to herself for now. She'd didn't want to make their client mad by accident.
Solo just smiled, feeling this job will be intense. "What is it? Some kind of local trouble?" He asked Ben.
"Let's just say we like to avoid any Imperial entanglements." Ben simply says.
"No one wants to mess with them...they're pretty much arrogant jerks," Blake says, she remembered well on her first meeting them, and their stormtroopers.
"Oh yeah, not many people around here like them," Luke says in agreement.
"Well, that's the real trick, isn't it?" Solo says, getting back on the topic. "And it's going to cost you extra. Ten thousand, all in advance." Solo informs them. Blake's eyes widen a bit at that number. It was a lot of money he was asking.
Not only her, but Luke was thinking the same thing. "Ten thousand?" He says as he turns to Ben. "We could almost buy our own ship for that."
"And who's going to fly it, kid. You?" Solo asked almost mockingly.
Knowing that Solo mocked him a little, Luke got a little defensive and angry. "You bet I could, I'm not such a bad pilot myself." Blake looked at him as he said that, with how easy he got angry, he kind of reminded her a little of her of a few certain blonds. She continued to listen to Luke as he went on, "We don't half to sit here and listen," Ben puts a hand on Luke's shoulder to calm him.
"We can pay you two thousand now," Ben says, beginning to bargain. "Plus, fifteen when we reach Alderaan."
Now Solo was in awe at this. "Seventeen?" He asks as Ben nodded.
Blake was shocked at this. Before it was just ten thousand now, this old man was offering to pay them nearly double that!
Solo then smirked as he spoke. "OK, you got yourselves a ship. We'll leave as soon as your ready. Docking Bay 94."
Ben nodded at this. "94."
The group heard some talking and saw some stormtroopers, Solo commented on this. "Looks like somebody beginning to take an interest in your handiwork."
At the bar stood two stormtroopers conversing with the bartender and looking at the dismembered arm. They saw that the bartender was pointing to them as one of the stormtroopers looked at them now.
"Alright, we'll check it out." The lead Stormtrooper says.
As the Stormtroopers walked through the crowded Cantina, Ben and Luke had snuck through the crowd and were gone. So when they got there, they only found the three smugglers minding their own business with no sigh of the suspected patrons.
When the soldiers were gone, the Han spoke. "Seventeen thousand, these guys must be really desperate." Solo began sounding happy right now. "This could really save my neck. Blake, go with those two, make sure they find their way to the Falcon. Chewie, get back to the ship, get it ready."
"OK, but Solo, I got a question," Blake had something on mind that she had to ask.
"What is it?" Solo asked. Wondering what Blake wanted to ask.
"How do we know these people will honor there word when we get to the said planet?" Blake asked.
"Don't worry, they will, and if not...I got other ways to make someone pay." Solo says.
The cat Fuanuse didn't say anything after that and left to find their two passengers.
"You will half to sell your speeder." Ben began.
"That's alright I'm never coming back to this planet again." Blake came out as soon as she hears this, she also heard the sad tone in Luke's voice. The way he sounded meant that something terrible must have happened to him that he never wanted to come back to this planet again. She then spotted two droids following the two as she approached from behind them.
"Hello," Blake says, getting the four attention.
"Solo sent me to come with you, you can say I'm here to make sure you two get to the place our ship is at," Blake told them.
Ben looks at this girl, he could sense something from her as he rubbed his chin in thought. He was not detecting the force in this girl, but he senses told him something else this girl had that got him curious.
"Very well," Ben says he figured he could make small talk with this girl while she's coming with them. See if he can find out a few things about her that might be important. He also senses told him this girl was harboring within her a lot of guilt. Such a thought made him curious as to what made her feel so.
Blake soon walked up to them, as she did, she was next to Luke who decided to introduce himself. "Hey, it's nice to meet you, my names Luke, Luke Skywalker," Luke says with a big smile. Blake looks at the boy with her stoic expression but decided to offer a small kind smile.
"Blake," Blake says after staring at him for a. "My name is Blake Belladonna, nice to meet you," Blake says to the blond, named Luke.
As for the droids. R2 lets out a few beeps as 3P0 knew what he said. "I feel that this will be most interesting too, my counterpart." He says.
Lightyears away on an Imperial ISD, Princess Leia Organa was in a cell guarded by four stormtroopers. She was hoping the droids made it to their destination. If not, then all who died to get the Death Star plans sacrifice will be I'm vain and not only that. The Empire's superweapon might bring a quick end to the rebellion and anyone who would stand up to the Emperor. If no one gets the knowledge of the battle station's weakness, then all is lost.
Note: Well here's the next chapter I would like to thank Helljumper206 for helping me edit this.
Also hope to see what your opinions on this.
