"So, what's the problem?" Han asked Luke as they walked down the corridor towards the meeting room where the rest of the Rebellion's leaders waited. A woman with Brown hair braided into a beautiful bun in her neck stood up and looked at the man. "Captain Solo; I trust that you have seen the dramatic shifts in the galaxy after the death of emperor Palpatine? How the ressesion ruined hundreds of planets?" She asked coldly. Han nodded. "Yes I have, General." He replied. Leia smiled a sarcastic smile. "Incredibe that you hear of anything outside of that ship of yours" she snarled. Luke put his hands on his sister's shoulders, trying to calm her.
"What she means to say, captain Solo, is that the ressesion, the financial crisis has reversed and a new emperor is slowly climbing up to the throne. A mysterious figure known as Duwiau." Luke informed. "He has won the galaxy's trust with propaganda and promises. But we believe this may be another Palpatine-in-progress."
Han's face hardened as the gravity of the words got to him. "What is our plan, General." He asked. Falkner stood beside Chewie and had no idea of what was happening. He had, offcource, heard some stories from Han and Chewbacca, but much of what the rebellion leaders were talking about was unheard of for the confused man.
As the meeting ended, Falkner followed his friend out of the room, he didn't speak as he could see that Han was thinking of something important. "Wait, Wait, Mr Leste!" Falkner turned his head and saw the robot, C3PO, waving at him, trying to make him stop. Falkner glanced over at Han who had turned to see what was going on. "Sir Leste. We wish to have you try the upgraded version of your spears." C3PO said.
Falkner followed the robot through the base, anxious to see how his spear had been changed. C3PO opened a door which lead into a large, empty room. "What this is?" Falkner asked. A small, reptile like creature walked up with two spears in their hands. "This is your upgraded spears, the design and weight is the exact same as the one you gave me. Falkner took the spears in hand and weighed them. The creature was correct. The size and weight was the exact same. "Now, if you push that button, an electric force field will surround the blades on both ends, up to these red bands." The creature pointed to the red inch-high parts on each end. Falkner held up one of the spears and pressed the button. A moving, light blue orb surrounded the metallic tips on the weapon. He let go of the button and the orb disappeared emediately.
"I have created a simulation for you, based on the images given to me from sir Solo's ship." The reptilian man said. He went to a control panel and pressed a few buttons, making the room look exactly like Falkner's home planet. Falkner started emediately with running up to the trees. He buried the top of the spear into the trunk of the tree before he started climbing, the spear worked almost better than the ones he had used before as he jumped between the trees. Suddenly he heard growling behind him, and there was one of his mortal enemies back home; a Falarak. It was five meters long with a slim, limbless body covered in fur. It's head had a canine snout with a wide mouth filled with venomous teeth. Falkner was frozen in fear for a few seconds before remembering the button in his spear. I pressed it and started attacking the Falarak, cutting at it. He managed to slice open its throath and it fell down from the large tree. Falkner ran around the trees for a few more minutes before quickly lowering himself and walked over to the reptile, Chewbacca, Han and C3-PO. He smiled to the reptile man who smiled back at him. "It work perfect." He said with a smile. Then the reptile man held up Falkner's jacket. On it was a plate with some strange marks in it. The reptile smiles and took Falkner's spear and placed it on the curved plate. He then took a second spear and placed it too, making them stand in an X formation in his back. "It is a holder for your spear. So not worry. I got a second Jacket for you, in case you don't want to carry your weapons." The reptile said and gave Falkner the second Jacket.
Han, Chewie, Falkner, R2-D2 and C3-PO entered the Falcon, as General Leia had asked them to join in a secret mission to scout out the planet where Duwiau had his main base, to see if they could find something of suspicion to bring back.
They landed the ship in the outskirts of a town which could remind one of the city of ancient Rome. The two droids and the three carbon-based lifeforms exited the Falcon and walked around town.Falkner had one spear on his back, not wanting to look too suspicious himself. Chewbacca has his plasma bowcaster, Han had his usual plasma gun. They managed to find a bar where also C3-PO and R2-D2 could come in. There they ordered something to drink and something to eat as they listened for rumors amongst the crowd of strangers.
