I

1126 words

The awesome yellow planet of Tatooine emerges from a total eclipse, her two moons glowing against the darkness. A tiny silver spacecraft, a Rebel Blockade Runner firing lasers from the back of the ship, races through space. It is pursed by a giant Imperial Star Destroyer.

Hundreds of deadly laser bolts streak from the Imperial Star Destroyer, causing the main solar fin of the Rebel craft to disintegrate.

"Oh my what's happening!!" Padme asks in horror.

INT. REBEL BLOCKADE RUNNER - MAIN PASSAGEWAY

An explosion rocks the ship as two robots, R2-D2 and C-3PO struggle to make their way through the shaking, bouncing passageway. Both robots are old and battered.

"Oh look R2-D2 there we are!" C-3P0 exclaims.

Artoo is a short, claw-armed tripod. His face is a mass of computer lights surrounding a radar
eye. C-3PO , on the other hand, is a tall, slender robotic human proportions. He has a gleaming bronze-like metallic surface of an Art Deco design. Another blast shakes them as they struggle along their way.

C-3PO "Did you hear that? They've shut down the main reactor. We'll be destroyed for sure. This is madness!"

Rebel troopers rush past the robots and take up positions in the main passageway. They aim their weapons toward the door.

C-3PO "We're doomed! The little R2 unit makes a series of electronic sounds that only another robot could understand, There'll be no escape for the Princess this time."

R2-D2 continues making beeping sounds. Tension mounts as loud metallic latches clank and the scream of heavy equipment are heard moving around the outside hull of the ship.

C-3PO "What's that?"

"Whats happening?'" Master Windu asks in confusion.

EXT. SPACECRAFT IN SPACE

The Imperial craft has easily overtaken the Rebel Blockade Runner. The smallerRebel ship is being drawn into the underside dock of the giant Imperialstar ship.

INT. REBEL BLOCKADE RUNNER

The nervous Rebel troopers aim their weapons. Suddenly a tremendous blast opensup a hole in the main passageway and a score of fearsome armoured space suitedstormtroopers make their way into the smoke-filled corridor.

In a few minutes the entire passageway is ablaze with laser fire. The deadlybolts ricochet in wild random patterns creating huge explosions. Stormtroopersscatter and duck behind storage lockers. Laser bolts hit several Rebel soldierswho scream and stagger through the smoke, holding shattered arms and faces.An explosion hits near the robots.

C-3PO "I should have known better than to trust the logic of a half-sized thermoplastic dehousing assister."

R2-D2 counters with an angry rebuttal as the battle rages around the two hopeless.

EXT. TATOOINE - DESERT WASTELAND - DAY

A death-white wasteland stretches from horizon to horizon. The tremendous heat of two huge twin suns settle on a lone figure, Luke Skywalker, a farm girl with heroic aspirations who looks much younger than his eighteen years.

Her long curly back hair, her brown shiny eyes she has a cut under her right eye wearing long black pants, with her laced up back combat boots along with a black belt and a black long sleeved top to match it which carves out her figure give the air flowing through her hair showing off her mesmerising smile.

A light wind whips at her as she adjusts several valves on a large battered moisture evaporator which sticks out of the desert floor much like an oil pipe with valves.

"You live on Tatoonie? I grew up there before i became a jedi" Anakin says a little excitedly.

Luke looks up in shock as who was talking to her then remember that she was in the past and no longer holding his dead body in her arms in the future clearing her throat.

"Yea i grew up on Tatoonie, until something happened and i left" she said avoiding eye contact with her past father.

She is aided by a beat-up tread-robot with six claw arms. The little robot appears to be barely functioning and moves with jerky motions. A bright sparkle in the morning sky catches Luke's eye and indistinctively grabs a pair of electro binoculars from his utility belt. She stands transfixed for a few moments studying the heavens, then dashed toward her dented, crudely repaired Land speeder. She motions for the tiny robot to follow him.

LUKE "Hurry up! Come with me! What are you waiting for?! Get in gear!"

The robot scoots around in a tight circle, stops short, and smoke begins to pour out of every joint. Luke throws her arms up in disgust. Exasperated, the young farm girl jumps into his Land speeder leaving the smouldering robot to hum madly.

INT. REBEL BLOCKADE RUNNER - MAIN HALLWAY

The awesome, seven-foot-tall Dark Lord of the Sith makes his way into the blinding light of the main passageway. This is Darth Vader, right hand of the Emperor.

His face is obscured by his flowing black robes and grotesque breath mask, which stands out next to the fascist white armoured suits of the imperial stormtrooper's .

Everyone instinctively backs away from the imposing warrior and a deathly quiet sweeps through the Rebel troops. Several of the Rebel troops break and run in a frenzied panic.

"Who is that?" Obi-Wan questions

"A sith lord." Luke answers shortly

Obi-Wan sensing that Luke didn't want to answer more questions kept silent but pondered on how the council let a with lord get this much power.

INT. REBEL BLOCKADE RUNNER

A woman's hand puts a card into an opening in R2-D2 dome. R2-D2 makes beeping sounds. C-3PO stands in a hallway, somewhat bewildered. R2-D2 is nowhere in sight.The pitiful screams of the doomed Rebel soldiers can be heard in the distance.

THREEPIO "R2, R2-D2, where are you?"

A familiar clanking sound attacks  C-3PO attention andhe spots little R2-D2 at the end of the hallway in a smoke-filled alcove. Abeautiful young girl who seems to be around 18 with light brown curly hair and light brown eyes to match it wearing all white clothing, stands in front of R2-D2.Surreal and out of place, dreamlike and half hidden in the smoke.

She finishes adjusting something on R2-D2 computer face, then watches as the little robotjoins his companion.

C-3PO "At last! Where have you been?"

Stormtroopers can be heard battling in the distance. They're heading in this direction.

C-3PO "What are we going to do? We'll be sent to the spice mines of Kessel or smashed into who knows what!"

R2-D2 scoots past his bronze friend and races down thesub hallway. C-3PO chases after him.

C-3PO "Wait a minute, where are you going?"

R2-D2 responds with electronic beeps.
