A/N: For those of you who have been revisiting The List, I realize that this is about the 10 millionth time I've changed the order of it. But it's not my fault I get ideas for one thing, and have no idea what I want to do for the other! This isn't my own list! I had about 5 other people help me, including my little brother!
Disclaimer: I don't own Star Wars. So, please don't sue me, Lucasfilm! No disrespect meant!
4. Dress a little kid up in a Darth Vader Halloween costume, and have him imitate whatever the real Vader does.
"This costume itches!" Omi, Wes's 9-year-old brother complained. He, like many other kids his age, wasn't old enough to join Vader's army when the Empire attacked their planet, Frell, and was in Vader's military training program.
"Just stop squirming and let us put the mask on you," said Ariadne, tying the cape around Omi's neck.
"I fixed the mask so it'll make him sound like Vader," said Wes, putting the mask on Omi.
"I can't believe you guys talked me into dressing up like that cheese head," Omi pouted, his voice about two octaves higher than Vader's, even with the voice modification.
"We want to get back at him because he's a cheese head," Ariadne stated simply. "Besides, it'll be fun! You like to copy Wes, don't you?"
"Yeah, cause it annoys the snot out of him!" Omi exclaimed.
"That's what we're hoping it'll do to Vader," Ariadne giggled.
"Is that cause he hit you in the eye?"
Ariadne brushed a strand of hair away from her eye, which was now a deep purple. "Kinda. Now, c'mon. It's show time!" She took his gloved hand and led him out to the Avenger's main deck.
oooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooo
They found Vader yelling at some crew members for having yet to locate the Rebel base and/or Luke Skywalker. When he saw them, he glared daggers at Ariadne. Even though she couldn't see his face, she could sense his anger.
"Have you come to ask me what my wife's favorite holomovie was?" he asked sarcastically.
"Nope," Ariadne smiled. "I just wanted to introduce you to my little buddy, Omi. He's Lieutenant Xao's little brother."
Vader stared down at the little human that was dressed… just like him! "Uhh, pleasure to meet you, young Xao." He extended his hand to shake his Mini Me's.
Omi held out his hand. "Pleasure to meet you, young Xao," he mimicked.
"Hey, don't do that!" said Vader.
"Hey, don't do that!" Omi repeated.
Ariadne walked over to where Wes was sitting, searching for the Rebel base. "Just sit back and watch the show!" she whispered.
oooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooo
For the rest of the day, Omi shadowed Vader. If Vader said something, Omi would repeat it in a sing-song voice. If Vader did something, Omi would imitate it with exaggerated limb movements.
Finally, at the end of the day, Vader had had enough. He hadn't fail to notice that Commander Ayortha had been smirking at him all day. But he didn't going to lash out; he wasn't going to give her that satisfaction. He had something MUCH more sinister up his sleeve.
He summoned Admiral White, the director of the training program, and gave him Omi. "Wake this one up at 530 hours standard time. He'll be scrubbing the toilets in the detention blocks. I'll make sure his 'buddy', Commander Ayortha," He shot a glance at Ariadne, "is scrubbing with him."
Ariadne's smirk faded. This DEFINITELY wasn't the plan she had in mind…
Loved it? Loathed it? Let me know! XOXOXOXOXOXOXOX
