Katoka and Din walked through the horrid streets of Tattooine. Every booth on the street was the same plain mechanical parts shop or clothing shop. Except for one. Katoka had pointed out a booth playing music for the poor who could not afford the music. "Look! Can we go there?" Katoka asked Din. "Not now Kat." He had came up with a nickname soon after he had taken her in.
"Oh please!" Katoka asked even more eager. "Fine. 5 minutes and 5 minutes only. I've got a job to do." Din finally gave in. Katoka ran over to the booth. It was playing some sort of rock song in Ewokese. She let the melody take over her feelings and just sat there. Listening. She forgot about all the trauma and just listened.
Her silence was soon disrupted as a group of stormtroopers approached the booth with anger in their steps. Katoka's eyes opened and they were in front of the man playing the music. "That is unauthorized music. You may not play that." The grey stormtrooper had said with anger. "Come on Kat, we have to go." Din tried to wave her over to get her away from the stormtroopers but she watched in fear as they hurt the man severely.
"STOP!" Katoka had screamed. The whole town had gone quiet. "Do you know who your talking to little girl?" Said the grey stormtrooper. "Of course I do. I'm not afraid of you, you know." Katoka stood in anger. Din grabbed Katoka and apologized to the stormtrooper. "Watch your kid next time bounty hunter." Katoka stared at the stormtrooper with anger. Din nodded and walked away with Katoka. "What a bunch of losers." Katoka said, still angry about the man. "I believe you, but please. Be more careful next time." Din responded. "Ok dad."
