RE: The Life and Times of Lintai Skywalker (Ultimate Drabbles Part 2 by Lightsaber123) Week 8 up!
Week 9
Family
Obi-Wan Skywalker knocked on the door.
“Enter.” The familiar voice said.
He walked in, and almost stepped out.
That compound eye seemed to drill a hole inside his head.
“Lin?” Or would you prefer Lintai, or maybe 'Sis?” Obi-Wan offered after an awkward moment.
“Lin's okay.” The bugwoman on the bed said, “grab a chair. I was just going to make something for dinner, would you like to join me?”
“I--”
Before Ben could finish his sentence, Lin said, “T'sall right, I suppose you are not hungry.”
“--would love too.” Huh?
“Really? Well grab a plate, little bro.”
Travel
Xin Pellaeon hasn't travelled Coreward in a long time. After eleven years, she would finally face Lintai. Imperial propaganda had trashed her, branding her a bugslut and a harlot. She had been called a seductress of the Empire for more times than she care to count.
The last time they were together had been in the Nest of Nests. Xin wondered if she should shudder at the thought. Part of her wants to remember of those days, where her platonic love for her sister never came to be doubted.
Xin picked up Gai, savouring his butterfly kisses on her face.
Food
Inside the nest, UnuSky clicked deep within her throat. A pair of Taat went scurrying past her. A moment later they returned with a few flasks of golden membrosia.
The ambassadors look disgusted.
“You reject the hospitality of the Kind?” Unusky said.
The Ascendancy has noticed a few abnormalities regarding the Nest. Members of our mine processing stations have started to refer to themselves as we and us instead of well, I and me. They include Stinov's daughter, the Chiss nodded to her colleague.”
“And you suspect the Kind? UnuSky rumbled, “You think we would poison you with our food?”
Blessings
ReyaTaat observed the battlefield. The Dead and the dying screamed their song within the harmony of the universe. She was happy in a way she had not been happy for a long time. A gladness akin to when she received her first medal, way back in...
What's this? A child?
A Chiss Child. ReyaTaat made for the girl. She looked about ten, just before the fighting age.
“Mommy? Have you seen my mommy?” The kid asked. “Mommy told me to pray really hard so that she can beat the Joiners. Were my prayer good enough? I only stumbled five times...”
Thanks
Kyp was humming a tone when Lintai woke up. She was wrapped around like a Bimmisari DizLu. While it felt cumbersome, Lintai had to admit that it was nice and warm.
“Durron?!”
“Didn't think you'd get rid of me that easily, did you?”
After a puse, Lintai had to admit no.
Well, I have good news and bad news for you.
The good news is that you're in my hands.
“The bad news?” Lintai asked.
“You are in my hands.” Kyp grinned.
“You're impossible!” Lintai fumed.
Later, she whispered to Kyp while he was asleep, “Thanks for coming after me.”

RE: The Life and Times of Lintai Skywalker (Ultimate Drabbles Part 2 by Lightsaber123) Week 9 up!
Week 10
Water
“She's dirty, Luke. We have to wash her now or the parasite will get her too!” Callista said.
“We can't afford to, Callista. You know the refugee situation better than anyone. How can I use the alloted ration when there's kids who die from thirst right outside the door?”
“If we don't wash her, the parasite will get her! We're talking about life and death here.
“We're not wasting water on hygiene when--”
“She'll die if we don't...” Callist insisted.
“Better her then my conscience.” Luke said.
“You never loved her. You wanted a son.” Callista accused. You wanted Alex!
Wine
“A toast! A toast to the end of the war!” An Arkanian cried.
“Hear, Hear!” People in the domed ballroom raised their glasses.
Lintai remembered being so happy only once in her life. The twenty generation Civil war on Banzor IX has finally ended. All thanks to her. She planned every stage of the negotiation from contacting to signature. The Peace Treaty looked so shiny, and when she looked at it she felt it had her name stamped on it. It was a moment to be remembered till the end of her days.
She drank the wine in one large gulp.
Ale
I decided that I didn't care for Corellian ale at all. Ordering the whole cask for the graduation class was a bad idea. Valin Horn was out like a light, but Gant Zentaor was mumbling in his sleep about hitting on Xin. And Xin, she said she hated her me.
She couldn't possibly mean that could she?
I mean, I gave my spare change to her so that she could have one more Venturi caf she just needed to have in the morning, and...
Oh the Force, she thinks I'm treating her like a pet. How could she think so?
Tea
Aunty Shira would babysit us when our parents went away. I don't like Aunty Shira. Mom says she is a bad woman. She used to kill for Palpoodin. Dad like her. Xin likes her, because every time she babysits she'd give her tea from Honoghr. I always tell them that no, I don't want any, because only Palpoodin people drank it. Aunty Shira would not get mad, in fact, every time she came, she would make me say Palpoodin. When they're all asleep, I would sneak down stairs and brew some honey water and drank some of those Honoghr tea.
Juice
“MOM!” Xin yelled, “Lintai won't let me have the Juice bottle!”
“Quiet!” Lintai tried to shush her sister, but Callista was already beside the table, looking at Lintai in that 'you better not be picking on your sister again' look.
Lintai gave her the most innocent demeanor she could offer. “What?”
“The Juice bottle.” Callista put out her hand, “Please?”
Sighing, Lintai relinquished her monopoly of the juice bottle.
Callista shook it. Her eyes narrowed and she looked into the sprout.
“Young lady, you are in so much trouble.” Callista said.
“I didn't drink all that!” No one believed me.

RE: The Life and Times of Lintai Skywalker Weeks 5 to 10 up! Drabbles Updated Feb 20!
Week 11
Young
Elinta Bark has never seen the Grand Master before. She and the rest of the younglings were in the academy forest number seven attending a class held by Mrs. Solo, when the teacher stopped the lesson and gathered th student around her.
“Grand Master.” The cheerful Yuuzhan Vong instructor seemed suddenly subuded.
“Please, don't stop on my account.” Elinta turned and saw her.
She had heard that the Grand Master was a tall woman, with a most kind smile just for the younglings.
The part about the smile might be true, decided Elinta, but why does she have that limp?
In-Between
“Use this duct, Lintai pointed to the diagram, “go in between these two buildings, we might have a chance.”
“A Chance? You want to base the operation on a chance?” The General looked ready to throttle Lintai, if she weren't the envoy from the Jedi, he would, try.
“With all due respect, General Duanz, the Dintak militia patrols the compound from dawn till dusk, and we can't go in during the night because of the Gardush.”
“Are you Jedi or not?” Demanded the General, “Aren't you supposed to be able to destroy your enemies with a flip of your hands?
Old
“Tell us a story from the old holocron, father!” the twins begged.
“Once upon a time, on Yavin...” Her father started.
Vepa and Genzelle sat crosslegged across from Muke Skywalker, while their mother went on one more of her trips.
“There was a mighty warrior, who came to the moon to save his one true love”.
The children listened attentively.
“But before he can do that, he had to make friends with the firebeetles of the Forest.”
Vepa hardly blinked, Genzelle give a snort and started tickling her older sister.
Vepa responded in kind.
“What the story don't tell is...”
Foolish
“You're not strong enough to save lives, silly girl.” Darth Vectivus disappeared in a puff of smoke. Nelani Dinn slowly crawled over to Mizlle Banp, but it was useless. The Ord Mandellian had already succumbed to her wounds.
Where was Xin? Would she turn around the coner, only to find her friends sharing Mizzle's fate?
Nelani shut down her lightsaber, and walked over to the rail, she jumped on the cart, and pushed the lever to the up position.
The cart began moving. A cold wind suddenly blew over her, chilling Nelani to the bone.
“Hold on, Xin, I'm coming.”
Wise
It wa a solemn occasion. The Death of a Jedi.
Xin felt her mouth move numbly as she delivered the eulogy.
Something about wisdom, something about saving a Jedi's soul, there might also be something about the non existence of death.
But Xin knew the truth.
She had killed her. If only she didn't want to go to that asteroid. If only Xin figured out what was wrong when Lintai started ignoring her.
Now, it was too late. Love, kind acts, perhaps family and children.
Why would Lintai do this? Wasn't she supposed to be the wiser of us two?

RE: The Life and Times of Lintai Skywalker Week 11 up! Drabbles Updated Feb 21, 2008!
Week 12
Trial
“Coming, Lintai?” asked Xin by the doorway.
“No, you guys go ahead, I still want to practice against the droids some more.”
Xin walked over to her sister.
“Hey, what's going on?” Xin tried to maintain contact as Lintai's eyes began evasive action.
“Dad want me to take my trial in a month, I'm not ready!”
“What are you talking about? I heard you did great on the latest diplomatic exam, and you kick by butt with a lightsaber, and you got--”
“Too many attachments.” said Lintai.
“No attachments.” said Xin at the same time.
“What are you talking about?”
Test
Get ready. The Grand Master said.
His opponent nodded. They began to circle eachother.
After five minutes, they still haven't drawn their weapons.
Xin, at the observation platform, started to complain. “What are they doing? I thought they were supposed to spar?”
“They are.” Callista said to her daughter, “can't you feel it?”
“All I see is that they are just walking funny.” Xin said, “I think Lintai was right, she's not ready.”
Callista grinned.
The spar ended a split second after the weapons were drawn.
Callista no longer grinned, a deep frown set in her face as she shook.
Preparation
Step 1, choose style. Check: Twin lightsabers.
Step 2, choose hilt(s). Check: Left: Duracrete with wooden finish. Right: The heirloom.
Step 3, choose colour. Check. Left: the heirloom. Right: Synthetic gold.
Two shocks and three misfires later, Lintai was almost ready.
Step 279: polish the crystal. Check.
Finally, after following the three hundred steps with cruciating painful detail, Lintai finally decided that it was time for a live test.
With a snap hiss, the right saber lit into a bright, soothing golden mass. Lintai found the hum hum of the weapon as it moved strangely hypnotic.
Now the left.
Fail
Xin decided it was useless to continue staring at the door. Her father and Lintai still have not yet exited
Xin had a bad feeling about this. Especially after the way her mother ran out the room, sobbing.
What did Lintai do now? Surely it was okay to build something other than a lightsaber for your Jedi trial? The holocrons the sisters consulted did not forbade a Jedi to manufacture a lightwhip. In fact, they were popular about twenty centuries ago.
Why were their parents so upset?
And does this mean that Lintai's fear was well founded, that she failed?
Pass
Lintai entered the apartment. She found it almost bare. Two giant trunks in the middle of the living room.
“In here, Lin.” Lintai moved curiously to the master bedroom.
“You're leaving.” Lintai made the observation.
“Your father deserves his happiness.” Callista said, “I was always a burden anyway, tell him... Tell him not to hurt her anymore. She took a hold of the trunks and made for the door.
“Mom, Lintai said with determination as she blocked the door with her lightwhip. “You shall not pass.”
Callista set her jaw and extended her palm, and then Lintai knew no more.

RE: The Life and Times of Lintai Skywalker Week 11 to 12 up! Drabbles Updated Feb 21, 2008!
Week 13
Festive
Chak Fel held his girlfriend in his embrace. She put her head on his shoulders as they danced slowly. He traced his fingers soothingly along the small of her back to elicit a gentle purr.
“I always told you I'd come back.” whispered Chak into her ear.
How did you find me.”
“I gave someone a call, and she had all the right contacts.”
She raised her head slowly, and staraed into his blue eyes, “Anyone I know?”
“I think I'm about to propose to her when I finish kissing her.” His lips touched hers and he breathed her in.
Wish
“Make a wish Vepa!” Muke Skywalker held her five year old daughter as she blew out the candle.
“What did you wish for?” Lepora Horn asked her friend.
“Can't tell, otherwise wish no true.” Vepa replied.
Lintai looked at the hologram once again. It had been so long ago. Now, Vepa is all but dust, and her wish never did come true.
Vepa never got to meet her grandmother.
But what is a wish but something that is a will of the whisp, something just beyond our reach?
Poor little Vepa, she probably blamed herself for telling in the end.
Gift
A messenger arrives at the Jedi Temple bearing a package
The package was sent for Miss Lintai Skywalker, into the care of Master Luke Skywalker.
A most strange package, wrapped in Commenorian yarn. Master Skywalker could not discern any ill will through the Force.
The yarn resisted all attempts to unravel it. However, there was a mechanism fused with it. It was designed to open by Lintai's fingerprints.
It was months before Lintai returned to the temple. The package remained in storage.
When she opened it, beside the item, were the following words.
To Lintai, who loved her Honoghrian tea.
Naughty
“Only the nice Jedis like me get presents on their Life Day, explained Tahiri to her friends. “If you're naughty, like Lintai, the Jedi Grand Master of the Ages will take away the present your parents gave to you and replace them with coal!”
“Will not!” Lintai screamed. “My parents will beat up your Grand Master and they'll take away your presents!”
Tahiri narrowed her eyes, deciding what to say. She settled for the most obvious solution.
Luke Skywalker received urgent knocks on his office door in a few minutes. A Duros apprentice panted, “Grand Master, the children are fighting!”
Nice
Xin watched the holonews coverage again and again. She struggled out of bed, weighed down by the baby she was carrying.
She rubbed her belly, sending soothing emotions. The infact kicked, but did not reach back to her through the Force.
Xin knew for a few weeks now that her baby would not be Force sensitive. She had come to accept the fact.
As she sent more motherly thoughts to the child, her belly finally acquiesced.
It felt nice. Lintai's wedding was nice, if only she was invited.
She bent down and kissed Melcod in his sleep. He kept snoring.

Week 14
Love
“Lin. Lin, wake up.” A voice she never thought she would hear again woke her up.
“Mom?” Lintai's compound eye opened before her human one.
“Yes, Lin, it's me.” Callista's shape was illuminated by a blue light.
“Why have you come?” Lintai asks. “You don't love us any more.”
That's not true, Lin, and you can't believe that,” Callista said, “That's not true. But that's not why I'm here.”
“You're going to leave me again, leave me here to die.”
“No, Lin, I love you, I always loved you, that's why you have to wake up from the coma gas.”
Credits
Callista withdrew another million credits from the bank. Sooner or later even someone like Lotikor should feel the pinch.
She was not dissapointed. The two thugs, one Falleen and the other Duros, had been on her tail for the past six hours. Ever since she stopped to buy a tube of Noghri khodynka stick.
She headed into the cantina. Lotikor could be anyone, the drunk Defel at the sabaac table, the Wolfman bartender, and even the obscene dancer on the platform.
The obscene dancer on the platform...
What the hell is she doing here?
A callous hand touched her shoulder.
Power
She should be happy now. She was the queen. She guides the Song of Harmony for housands upon thousands of sentient beings. But she's not.
Power, what is its use?
SkyLizil disappeared.
Gone.
Maybe even dead.
Was it wrong? It didn't feel wrong. Lintai Skywalker would have wanted her sister at her side. And UnuSky was reasonably certain that Xin Skywalker would have wanted the same.
But now, at the eve of the Galactic Alliance's imminent destruction, all UnuSky feels is loss.
Power is useless.
Commence firing! UnuSky sent the pheromone through to the Wuluws, rubbing her forearms together absentmindely.
Pleasure
Lotikor did his business. It wasn't the worst of it. She was subject to more, physical sort of torture. Lintai tried to subject herself to meditation, but it was useless. In the end she was completely lost.
Lotikor grinned as he savoured the pleasure derived from the exercise. He felt young again. Nothing like a Jedi to make your yourth seems only a day before.
He clapped and two of his thugs carried the girl away, he would derive pleasure from her yet.
After all this nonsense is over, he would get credits from her, where the pleasure is tangible.
Pain
“Tenel Ka!” Cried the surprised Lintai as her lost friend revealed herself.
“You still remember us, Queen.” Tenel Ka bowed low. “It pained us when you left the Colony.”
“Tenel Ka, it was a mistake, and I'm sorry--” Lintai said, cradling her dying brother with her arm.
“Apologies are unnecessary, Queen. But pain is a necessity!”
“You were the one who hurt Seha!” accused Kovin. “You did that to her!” Lintai observed Bekeor with her compound eye, the kid just doesn't know when to shut up.
“If it's me you want, Tenel Ka, you could have just asked.” Lintai said.

RE: The Life and Times of Lintai Skywalker Week 11 to 14 up! Drabbles Updated Feb 21, 2008!
Week 15
Melody
The story goes something like this:
”So...” Dad.
“I guess this is it.” Mom.
“Yeah. Dad.
“Well, I'll give you my list if you give me your list.” Mom
“Deal.” Dad
Embarassing, isn't it?
I think so.
That's how I got my name, Lintai. It means Melody in one language or another. I guess my parents just wanted me to have a musical talent or something.
Well, I don't.
Music is mostly Xin's area of expertise, if yo uknow what I mean.
Lintai concluded her story.
“You made that up!” Complained Xin, “Who are you calling good at music? MOM!”
Instrument
“You're not gripping the lightsaber right.” Instructor Katarn said. “Grip it with two hands on the hilt, not only one.”
“But my mom said...” Lintai complained.
“Hahahaha! Mommy's girl!” some of the other younglings jeered.
Lintai went red in the face.
Katarn glanced at the younglings, they fell quiet.
“It's true sometimes it's better to hold the lightsaber with only one hand, particularly if you're using two sabers, using the Vaapaad. But it's important to get the feel of using only one saber, you might like it better.” Katarn said.
“I don't like lightsaber that much, I want something exotic...”
Rhythm
For that brief five hours, she was SkyLizil again.
She was taunting Davin Fel again. The Song reverberated in her eardrum, with its unique rhythm, and SkyLizil's entire being was part of a whole.
And then the rhythm was lost.
Her weary eyes focused on Melcod, holding Ren in his arms. She smiled.
“The calandar says it's your turn today.”
Xin took her son into her embrace. The little tyke struggled in his mother's hold as he attempted to reach for the snack bar.
In a minute little Ren closed his eyes and performed his own music, after a fashion.
Sound
The shuttle crashed days earlier.
Now they were stranded. The co-pilot was dead, and Tenel Ka was dying.
Great job, One more failure. Number..., but who's counting?
Lintai observed her sister as she slept.
The bugs almost got through the last time.
The sound of the jungle! It's maddening!
The chirpping, it never stops!
Lintai contemplated waking up Xin for her shift, but the look on her sister's face told her she was having a good dream.
As she sat thinking, she noticed Xin, still with her eyes closed, break into a wider smile.
“Why didn't you wake me?”
Symphony
“Too bad Lintai couldn't join us Luke.” Deena said to her husband. “I think she would have like the Opera, especially at the end, where Rorrobo asked Bizza to marry him.”
“Yeah!”.Gigi agreed, this being the first time she was brought to a semi adult rated Opera. “I can't believe how fab it was.”
Luke remained quiet.
“Luke? Is something wrong? Deena asked him.
“I don't know, but I felt Lintai should have been here, she should have wanted to be here, I can't-- BEN! LINTAI! NO!”
“Daddy,” Gigi said, “I'm scared, and cold.” to a almost unconscious Luke.

Week 16
Lightsaber
Lintai and Xin Skywalker followed their father into his private office.
The solemn look on Luke's face told them this was big, whatever it was.
Luke sat down on his office chair, and rummaged through the some papers before taking a small box out of the drawer.
Xin, having just reached her twenty first birthday, was starting to realize what was going on. “Lin,” she whispered, “If it's what I think it is...”
“It is.”
Luke slowly opened the case, revealing twin wore lightsabers.
These were your grandmother's lightsabers. I'm passing them down to you.”
Xin tentatively stretched her hand.
Blaster
It's not often when a blaster isn't trained on you. It's refreshing for a change. I wouldn't want to get too comfortable with it. Lintai decided.
Who would have thought? When Chak left, all she had to remember him by was a blaster, and he had vowed to take him down with it herself if he ever dared to return into her life.
Now, that blaster sits so prettily among the mementos
“You'll like him as a father,” Chak said, “Have a temper like a overcharged blaster...”
Lintai didn't think she cared to hear about any of Soontir Fel's shortcomings
Vibroblade
“Seha!” Gant was the first to find her. “Say something!”
But the redhead remained oblivious on the floor. Her green eyes semi covered by her eyelids.
“Medic!” Gant yelled.
A voice told him that he should be quiet. Yes. He should also grab the vibroblade he had, and slice it across her neck. He should do it from behind.
Now.
Slowly Gant did what the voice told him.
The vibroblade was inches from Seha Dorvald's carotid when Kovin arrived, bearing flowers.
The voices suddenly stopped, and Gant had no idea why he was slicing a vibroblade across a stranger's scalp.
Bowcaster
Lintai always knew Lumpy was good with a bowcaster. She just didn't know how good.
The hordes of Sith troopers that this Darth Zentubai was thinning down. If Lumpy kept this up, she could climb up the reactor core and get to Zentubai's throne room.
Lintai wrapped her lightwhip around her lightsaber, and put the two weapons in the oversized holster. She climbed down the humming chute gingerly.
I'm getting too old for this. Lintai decided.
The sound of the bowcaster disappeared as Lintai climbed first downward and then to the right. Now it's my one woman show from here.
Thermo Detonator
“Tahiri! Duck!” the blonde Jedi had a moment's warning before the acklay almost took her head off.
The bounty hunter threw five thermo detonators from the air. Tahiri swang her hair and made a gesture, they were put into stasis.
“Run! I can't hold those thermos for much longer!” Tahiri shouted. Pushing the inert Xin straight into an oncoming Lintai.
“We won't leave you!”
“Then we all die here!” Tahiri's amphistaff going for the bounty hunter's foot.
“Barve!” the bounty hunter spat as he trapped Tahiri in a full body bind, the ions flowed into the wires a milisecond later.

Week 17
Black
The entire Jedi Temple were draped in black. The mood was sombre. The Sith have returned. They have killed. The Jedi seemed powerless to stop them. Grand Master Katarn was dead. Who will lead the Jedi now? The Imperials who sat on the right of the Council demanded that Xin Skywalker be called from Bastion to lead the Jedi, while on the left, the Durronists supported Kyp Durron.
Muke Skywalker was silent.
He could still feel his mother in the Force. No matter what the reports said.
“Where are you going? Knight Skywalker?” Tahiri Veila, asked him as he left.
Blonde
Lotikor looked at the corpse. Then he turned and looked at the two guilty looking henchmen. It was war now. There was no mistaking the corpse. It was Callista Skywalker, wife of the Grand Master of the Jedi Order.
This was going to cost business.
There was no sense in wasting such a fine specimen of a corpse, though. Uses could be found for it. Perhaps a he could contact a Kaminoan or two. They were always in his debts.
Those Kaminoans would only need a finger at worst, the rest Lotikor was sure he could fine a use for.
Red
Luke Skywalker banked his X-Wing over the debris field. Just one more run, just one more scan. C'mon Shira! Be alive! Be alive.
How was it possible? The redhead whom he developed feelings for turns out to be an Imperial spy. How? Why?
The kiss before the mission. She knew something was wrong. She had to know.
She still came. Why?
Luke's thoughts were interrupted by the insistent red flashing on his sensor board. A standard Imperial distress beacon, and a life sign.
“You came back,” Shira Brie said to Luke once she regained consciousness. “For me. Why?”
Brown
Deep within the Jedi temple, guttural curses could be heard. Its inhumanity was not in question. Only a bug could utter those obscenities.
Bug and bug huggers, can't trust any of them. Lando Calrissian decided.
The pejoratives eventually died down, followed by a strange, eery silence.
“How's the patient?” Lando asked Cilghal, the healer, once she exited, covered in brown slime.
“I couldn't save the baby.” The Mon Calamarian shook her now brown head sadly.
Luke patted Cilghal's shoulders, “Then Tenel Ka...”
“Will survive.” Cilghal said. “I can't speak for her psyche, but she should make a complete physical recovery.”
Bald
Nothing grew in the hill. Not even the bones of the Jedi fallen here will allow that to happen.
I am Darth Zentubai, Dark Lord of the Sith.
You may think it funny and mock my bald head, pity, for you.
I have bested the pathetic Jedi sent to assassinate me. I am now ready to declare the reemergence of the Sith. I will not take an apprentice to hasten my own fall. Instead, I will lock all my knowledge in a holocron.
The Jedi did get one thing right. There is no Death. There is the Force, my servant.

RE: The Life and Times of Lintai Skywalker Week 11 to 16 up! Drabbles Updated Feb 21, 2008!
Week 18
Coruscant
First mission ever as a Jedi Knight, and I mess up. Thought Lintai ruefully. I can't believe how the Force is not with me today. She had lost her target. The fat businessman known only as Lotikor. Lotikor goes into one of his venues, the Mingjiao Restaurant on Coruscant, and always came out with a big briefcase. This fact has piqued Coruscant Security's interests, and the two agents they sent in disappeared without a trace. The good news is Lintai hasn't disappeared off the face of the planet yet. The bad news is both Lotikor and the Mingjiao restaurant did.
Corellia
I'm being followed. Lotikor decided. Yes I am. Lotikor did not become what he was by being stupid, or overly proud. Therefore he knew what he must do to survive. That means only one thing.The Mandalorian didn't come cheap. In fact, she cost almost a fortune, but it was all worth it. Because now, not only is his would be assassin captured, the assassin has a good package underneath her Jedi cloak too. Ah yes. Jedi. Lotikor always heard they were more tasty than nosaurians. Before he would eat her though, he did have things to say to her.
Kashyyyk
Han banked the Millenium Falcon sharply to port, and elliciting a startled yell from his wife, Bria.
“Don't ever do that again!”
“Sorry, sweetheart,” Han muttered, “Baby, sometimes people just don't understand us.”
“I heard that.”
Half an hour later, they were on Kashyyyk.
The Mandalorian was defiant.
“Who was your last target?!” Lowbacca growled.
“Kark you, Wookiee. I am not afraid of you!”
“You will be, my friend, you will be.” Han promised her.
The Mandalorian did not break by conventional methods. By the time Bria Tharen left the wookiee interrogation chamber, there wasn't much left.
“They got Lintai.”
Korriban
A bucket of fetid urine was dumped on the girl's face.
She came to in a moment, her eyes slowly focused, then proceeded to sprout fire.
Lotikor observed her closely. Such a nubile body. He couldn't decide whether to eat her or sell her. Maybe he can do both
Preently he heard mumblings:” Wouldn't it be fun if a noble man such as yourself lost once in a whle?
Lotikor chuckled, and replied in a loud voice.
“Wouldn't it be fun if such a woman of your age and abilities were to be taken advantage of once in a while?”
Taatooine
Lando was beside himself with rage. First Lotikor ransomed two million credits for nothing but a datachip. Now Lando have to find out from the slave owner that a slave off his rack would cost about 4 million? And why the hell did Luke not send some Jedi to rescue her? Why pay? Why pay with Lando's money? There was no choice, he simply owed Luke that much.
Ah, here we are, Slave number Aurek 77. Whoever recommended her to you knows what they were talking about. Let's see, I'll sell her for 3.2 million. Because I like you, friend.

Week 19
Heat
Lando paced on the orbital platform of Mustafar. The heat was overwhelming, but he didn't care. The ransom note said to meet here. Another vessel landed on the platform. A man walked out.
“Where's the kid?” Lando demanded.
“All in good time, Calrissian.” Where's the dough?
Lando gave the man a briefcase “well?”
The man simply said, “the girl is okay, but under guard at a different place.” He handed Lando a datachip. “It'll contain everything you need to retrieve her.”
Lando looked at the bulging briefcase, and muttered, “cute, really cute.”
He turned away, what choice did he have?
Cold
Luke Skywalker returned to his apartment. He wasn't sure how Callista would take the news. Maybe that's why he didn't build up the courage till four o' clock in the morning.
He had hoped Callista had went to bed, leaving the light for his benefit, but no. She was wide awake. Despite the heater, Luke knew that he would rather spend the next week in the cold of Rhen Var rather than to face his wife.
“You killed them.”
“Callista, they are still alive, we would have felt something if...”
“You would have felt something. Callist shook her head.
“I...”
Rain
The Poisonous rain water splashed on Xin's face. She ate the meat, imagining an unrotten flavour. While her sister wasn't looking, she poured more juice into Lintai's pot.
During the night there were predators. Meat.
But the water situation is getting dire. Lintai had ordered that the blood of those who had thirsted to death be drained, but Xin had convinced her otherwise.
Xin had never regretted that decision, but the look Lintai gave her when Xin belayed the order was one of disbelief and pain, and Xin feard that no amount of rain water could wash away the damage.
Sunshine
“Luke, this vacation is the best idea you had in a long time.” Deena Shan said to her fiance.
When she didn't get a response, she turned.
Luke was snoring.
Poor baby... Deena Shan thought as she blinked the sunshine out of her eyes.
Deena Shan was almost asleep when she was rocked awake
“MOM!!! The Freak broke our favourite surf board!”
“Wha--” Deena started. “Gigi, what's going on?”
Her eldest, the only one not crying, assumed puppy dog eyes, and said, “Mom, Lin tore our surf board apart.
Deena Shan stared, she later found Lintai, unconscious on the sands.
Clouds
“Tahiri! Can you walk?” Lintai was so glad that she found her friend.
“I'm not leaving, and neither are you!” Tahiri said.
“What? Has C'Boath done something to y-- ahhh!”
Lintai screamed as a quarter of her body fell to the floor while half of her right lung was exposed to the environment of Cloud City.
All she could see as she fell was the Tahiri's blue saber swiping around to catch Xin's gold blade.
“Hang on, we're gonna get you out of here!” Someone whispered to her.
Tahiri. She's my friend. Why? Lintai mumbled as the clouds claimed her.

Week 20
Destiny
Dad cleared his throat before he began.
“Welcome to another new session at the Jedi Academy. I am Master Luke Skywalker, chief instructor. On my left is Brakiss...”
If there's anyone who should have been bored at a time like this, that person would be me. Well, me and my sister, Xin.
You might think that we would roll our eyes and yawn through another introductory seminar. Ninety nine percent of the time you would be right, but this one was different.
The first one after Mom's death.
Mom took that blaster shot for me. She took away my destiny.
Legacy
Who would have thought? Grand Master Lintai Skywalker. I wish Xin were here to celebrate, but she's doing her hermit thing on Zonoma Sekot. I shouldn't blame her for what happened, but I don't deserve this. This accursed Legacy. She cheated me. She always had to have what I wanted. But I love her! What she sacrificed so that the Jedi might continue to exist. And what came as a consequence? She won't even talk to me. Why can't she understand?
“Grand Master?”
“What is it Raeta?” I ask.
“Chancellor Palpatine is here.”
“Please send her in.”
The padawan bowed.
Hope
Journal entry:
I didn't have a Force vision again for very long. I was hoping not to get any. Despite Mom's insistence that Force vision was perfectly normal, and can be fun. I could never tell her that cousin Jacen killed that Mara lady. No one would ever believe me. But Cousin Jacen killed her with a poison dart while he was at my birthda--
what the hell was that? Someone's coming.
I must going mad. That Mara lady just made an entrance and hugged Dad in front of me. She's not dead. Wha can it mean? I only hope...
Future
“Through the Force, things you will see, other places, the future, old friends long gone...”
Well, excuse me, Grand Master of the Jedi Order, I'm not seeing anything. So you can just try to ground me for another week, Dad, becau--
What the hell is going on?! How come the air gets so dusty all of a sudden, what the hell?
Owch, I tripped. Looks like a cavern.
I see that redheadlady. The one Dad introduced to me months ago, before she disappeared. She's in pain. She looks at me with hatred...
“You're as vile as he is.”
I sobbed.
Fate
When all is said and done, what can we say? We did it all for what we believed in. It didn't work out. We are tired of it all. In a few hours a Jedi strike team will try to save us, nominally from ourselves, but in reality all they want to do is to destroy the nest. They will fail. Thus is their fate. We have foreseen it. We regret nothing. If only SkyLizil were here with us, but we must not question fate. There is still time for another dream through the Force. F'yy Roog! ABOMINATION! Can't allow...

Big Fatty
Thank you! Thank you Academy.
I'd like to thank. (what do you mean it's the wrong ceremony?!)
Well, thank you all. Bows. Hope you liked Lintai.
I had fun writing her. This series of drabbles will be my holocron to develop her AU better.
Thanks go to Big Fatty, Zonama, and everyone who read about Lintai and her family.
