I stood up and answered. What I heard did not improve my mood. It must have called my by accident, because I heard a voice of someone I haven't met yet. I guessed a Sith lord by the way he talked.
"And now, my rebel friends, we will discuss the other rebel cells. Where are they? Who is there commander? I want answers right now!"
"I don't know of any other cells. We work alone." It was Lux. He must be in trouble. Contacting me wasn't an accident. He is trying to warn me.
"All I know is that there are other rebel cells. I don't know where or what they do, but my commander has told me there are others. Some are led by Jedi. We all do different things. That's all I know."
"Who is your commanding officer?"
"Somone who used to be a Jedi. A very powerful Jedi."
"And that's all you can tell me?"
"Even if I knew more, I wouldn't tell you."
"Well then we will do it a different way." Then there was a silence.
"Have you seen this person before?"
Silence.
"Ah, so you have seen her before. Tell me, where is she now?"
Silence.
"I hope she is listening. I will make you and your friends suffer." He then spoke to me like he knew I was listenkng. "I give you 3 days to come rescue him. Turn yourself in, or he will die."
I heard a scream. They were tortuing him for answers. There was a pause.
"Don't...come...for me....it's a...trap..."
More screaming. I couldn't take it anymore, so I cut the transmission. I had to rescue Lux. There's more at stake here than he realizes.
