	Before the Saga Title: Eight Silent Ways to Kill a Jedi Author: RX_Sith Characters: Darth Plagueis, Sith Apprentice Sidious Summary: What will Darth Plagueis teach his star pupil in the eight silent ways of killing a Jedi? Notes: You have selected #3 from Joe Haldeman's The Forever War: "Today we're going to show you eight silent ways to kill a man.” Title: The Shortcut Author: VaderLVR64 Characters: Sian Ny (OC) Summary: Sian thought he was taking the easy way out. Notes: My first line was: "He should never have taken that shortcut." Michael Crichton, Timeline The Saga Title: The Hunter’s Tale Author: Divapilot Rating: PG Character: Shaak Ti Time frame: Revenge of the Sith Genre: angst Summary: Master Shaak Ti, shocked by the unbelievable events she has witnessed, tries to relate the massacre at the Jedi Temple to her own experiences as a hunter. Author’s note: The quote is the first line of Ursula K LeGuin's Left Hand of Darkness: I'll make my report as if I told a story, for I was taught as a child on my homeworld that Truth is a matter of the imagination. Title: Pleasure to Burn Author: DaenaBenjen42 Timeframe: that period of time between AOTC and ROTS Character: Un-named Clone Trooper Genre: introspection (if that's a genre...) Summary: A clone trooper has a moment to himself. Notes: I chose prompt #10: "It was a pleasure to burn." (Farenheit 451, Ray Bradbury) Title:The Rookie Author: Earlybird-obi-wan Timeframe: ROTS-ROTJ Characters: my OC Ben Henny from USJS. Genre: vignette Keywords: fireships Summary: Events during ROTS change a young firefighter. Disclaimer: Lucas = Star Wars The quote I got was from David Gerrold's The Middle of Nowhere: The rookie had arrived at Stardock so recently, his eyebrows still hadn't had time to come back down to their normal position. Beyond the Saga Title: Once I got lost Author: Ceillean Timeframe: after LotF Characters: OC Genre: Drama Summary: A Jedi deals with the dark Notes: My first line was "Once I got lost in my own house" -- Neil Gaiman's Interworld -----signature----- "Words - so innocent and powerless as they are, as standing in a dictionary, how potent for good and evil they become in the hands of one who knows how to combine them." ~Nathaniel Hawthorne
