I woke up early to harvest some of the crops and got to see the sun rise on Jartio . I walked by the stream to watch the horizon, sometimes I still couldn't believe I got this lucky to have an amazing wife and daughter. Me and Dengar are the leaders of the small village, we found this planet while scouting for a place to hide and settled here. The village makes it's money by selling fish and crops to whoever asks but we try to keep out of the current conflict between the new Republic and the Empire. I met my wife Geena when she helped me rally the village to fight mercenaries trying to raid the village, after that we got married and had a daughter named Emma. Dengar met his wife when he saved her from being kidnapped by the mercenaries. Me and Dengar did not want to tell the village exactly who we were because we did not want to make our problems their problems. Luckily since the planet was so far out they didn't know much about the war and the current state of the galaxy, so we said we were mercenaries that wanted to retire. As for my wife and daughter I didn't tell them about my heritage and that I am a clone. After the battle of Endor a bigger war began and is still being fought today between the empire and the rebellion. I left my slave one and the sacred texts in a secure place off planet to not draw too much attention. But I kept me and my Father's belongings on Jartio along with some of his recordings I could use to train Emma. I felt that the recordings could help her and my wife understand that I'm a clone. When Emma is old enough I will train her and show her the recordings. I ate a small Mika fruit by the stream, and saw in the distance my daughter running out of the hut, she yelled out "daddy" I ran towards her and picked her up saying "morning Emma how are you" she then said "I wanna help with the chores today" my wife came out of the hut surprisingly because she sleeps in due to her being nine months pregnant. I ran towards her I smiled and said "morning Geena" she then kissed me and said morning, I made breakfast" . I then looked at Emma and said "breakfast first and then we'll do chores". After a good breakfast me and Geena went to work. We started harvesting crops and finished the chores in about an hour. I went into the shed to reorganize while Emma played outside with her friends and Geena was resting. I was taking out some small crates and reorganizing them by color. I looked in the mirror in front of me and thought to myself that I am over forty years old and still look young, but over the years I still have a pain in my waist from the Sarlacc fang and it has been getting worse even though doctors have been saying nothing is wrong. I picked a box off the shelf but a smaller box fell out on the ground opening. A small holodisc fell on the ground and played a large hologram. It was my father he was wearing his armor and holding his jet pack, but then I saw me right next to him I was sitting in front of him with my jet pack and we were both fixing it, my father said in his deep voice "remember Boba you always need to cool down your gyro stabilizers after a fight or eventually they will explode and your pack will fly uncontrollably." I said in a focused tone and said "got it, when am I gonna fly it" my dad chuckled and said "patience Boba you'll fly it soon enough". I had not seen this tape recording in almost twenty years but it still brings a tear to my eye. A voice came from behind "who is that" I quickly turned off the hologram, wiped my tear and turned around only to find it is Emma at the door. I told her "that is your grandpa". "Really" another voice came from behind and it was Geena I told her "yeah, that man taught me everything I know, but enough of that I want to cook lunch" Emma yelled out "yay" and her and Geena walked out of the shed. After a nice lunch I went to do some field work while Geena played with her friends. While I was working I thought how this was the life my father had when he was a child, after his parents died he joined the Mandalorians and became a bounty hunter. But I am raising Emma in a different way, I am giving her a simple life and once she is six I will begin to train her. I will use my Father's teachings the teachings of the sacred Mandalorian texts and my own personal knowledge to train Emma to protect herself. "Dad" a loud voice came from behind me, I turned around and it was Emma running toward me. I picked her up and asked "what is it" she said in tired tone "uncle Dengar wanted to see you in his hut, he said it is urgent" I told Emma thanks and walked to his hut, Dengar's hut was closer into the village so I had to walk through town. Everybody in town respected me and Dengar and thanked us everyday for bringing piece to the village but we did not want the praise. After a long walk I reached Dengar's hut to see him outside I told him "hey, what's going on" he said in a low town "we have an emergency come into the hut and I will explain everything" I walked in the hut confused and nervous, now that we were alone Dengar began to talk in a louder more serious tone "I saw on the scanners there is an imperial star destroyer coming out of the hyperspace about to reach the planet"
