The main lobby of the ship was packed with tons of people all waiting to go to Bandomeer. And they weren't the cleanest. Smells fumed from them and Ben held his breath 'till he made it to the large counter in the middle of the hanger.
"Name?" the clerk asked. She was a very pretty lady with short red hair cut to the ears and large green eyes that shimmered like Emeralds.
"Ben and Dexter," said Ben still mesmerized by the lady's beauty.
"Ahh yes, you are room 146b on floor 2, hall 21. Thank you."
"There are so many people here…" commented Dexter as they strode to the elevator. "You think they all came for jobs?"
"Why else would you go to Bandomeer?"
"I don't know. But I'll bet you could get into a job somewhere. Maybe we could talk to the head person? I wonder who it is…"
"Ha, tough luck! The leader is a very independent Arconan by the name of Si-Treemba."
"Si-Treemba? I know him. Him and I were best friends before I became a Je…a you-know-what. I could get you in with no problem."
"Really? Thanks a lot Ben! Oh man, I'm really excited now."
The room they booked had two beds, a bathroom, and a window that showed the main hanger of where they entered and another showing the dusty streets of Mos Espa space port. Soon the hum of the starship, PathFinder, split the bustling noise of out side and the ship took off into space. More sounds echoed as The PathFinder went into Hyperspace and the stars blurred past creating a light blue cloud in the outside window. The flight was smooth and comfortable but soon Ben grew hungry and decided to head to the kitchens. The cook served a thick stew with chunks of bread to dip it in. Fresh spring water was served but you could buy a Ruby Bleaous (A small alcoholic drink sweetened with ruby lemons) for a few Credits. After supper Ben went up to the room with Dexter and they chatted away, telling and re-telling stories of past events. They fell asleep after a while but Ben woke up to a small noise.
"Dex…was that you?" Ben asked. Dexter snorted and rolled over. Ben laid back down and felt out with the force while pretending to be asleep. He sensed a Rhonglind lurking in the shadows and right when Ben started up it let out a blood-curdling cry, jumped on Ben's bed, took his lightsaber, and ran out of the room. Ben followed close on his heels when all of a sudden it vanished. Ben knew it must have some secret passage way through the halls. The force told him to go left, so he did and soon heard scuttling in the walls. But he ran into the clerk.
"What the blast is going on?" she said. She was wearing a nightgown made of lace and looked completely angry standing in the halls undressed.
"The Rhonglind, it stole my lightsaber!"
"Your lightsaber? You're a Jedi…" A huge blast shook the halls and they both fell down on the floor. Ben hopped up. "This way!" he called to the clerk. She ran toward him and they made their way toward Hanger B1. The Rhonglind was climbing into a escape pod. It launched and Ben jumped into another one with the clerk and quickly linked it with the Rhonglind's. The pod took off falling farther and farther away from the ship.
