Portals

Chapter 1

I never thought I'd be bored enough to write a book, then again you can't expect much in the way of entertainment when you're stuck in the deepest space with no one to talk to, and no R2-C7 is not identifiable as someone.

Let me introduce myself, my name is Anna, I've never had a family or anything that could be called a family; I grew up alone, in the lake region of Naboo; when I was 10 years old I decided to leave and see more of space outside of the planet, also because I had nothing to hold me back there.

I secretly embarked on a shipment of supplies and after about two hours of travel, we landed on a barren desert planet, Tatooine; after getting off the ship I saw a town in the distance that I decided to reach to eat something.

The houses looked like igloos made of sand, there were small vendors of food and stuff; very big animals that looked like giant mammoths, and people who rode them. The merchants were screaming to get people's attention and maybe make some money, slavery was still present on that small planet out of the republic's control, I thought that in my misfortunes I was luckier than many others.

There were all different creatures, my imagination flew from planet to planet; I wanted to know where every single inhabitant of that city came from and then visit each planet in the universe. There were some very ugly aliens, but also humans that I sincerely hoped wouldn't pay attention to me.

After walking around that town, if you can call it that, for a looong time, suddenly everyone started running and going into their homes, I tried to stop someone to ask what was going on but as a response, I only received curses in an unknown language.

Then I realized what had caused the panic: a huge wall of sand was approaching threateningly towards the houses; I decided that the best thing to do was to run away to the other side, and so I did.
