"Hey, where Is Everyone?"
Cas' we are for the most part in lurker mode. We are waiting for your next post. Please post soon. This a recording that was triggered by you wondering were we are.
This tape will self destruct in ten seconds. Have a nice day. 
BOOM.
Got you.

Oh, woops. Eh, eh. That's what I get for not proof reading.
It's not "His head rested just above her blaster" but "His hand rested just above his blaster".
Sorry 'bout that.
Hey, no self destructing on my boards. :P You'll tear open a hole and Blackie with sneak in. I don't need sheep running around my boards.

I finally caught up to this page! And no, it most certainly didn't disapoint. You have another loyal reader on your hands.  I like the way you portray Boba, and as for what those Stormtroopers did to Han, well, if they ever think of doing anything like that again *I'm* going to dive into the fictional universe and they'll have *ME* to deal with. What, you say, I'm not a Jedi, not athletic, and not in the least imposing? I'll just have to practice blaster technique. Even *I* should be able to out-aim a Stormtrooper, right?

*Creeps out of the shadows.*
Cas' you don't have to worry about Blackie. He is in the gym losing weight. He ate my lot of cookies for a fund raiser at my school.
He couldn't get through a tear the size of a manhole.
I'm not sure were the floor waxer is though. So be on the look out the floor waxer. Last seen heading this way.
Can anyone think of a name for this guy? I'm getting tired of calling him just the floor waxer.
PM me if you get an idea on a name. All names will be considered.

YEEAAHHH! It's my favorite time of year! I love Halloween. Maybe it's because, deep down, all my beloved readers are right...I am evil.
Haha! Well, enjoy this post. It's short and not at all scary. (I thought about including a scene with the Emperor in here so it would fit the holiday theme, but it didn't work out)
*** *** ***
“My Lady?”
Padme didn’t look away from the chore of pinning her hair back, keeping her eyes locked on the mirror before her. “Sim. I’m going out.”
“My Lady?!” The Anakillian didn’t look as incredulous as he sounded. She turned to find him standing in her doorway, dark eyebrow raised, but otherwise unconcerned. “Can I inquire as to just why? The bounty hunter is still looking for you. If there is something you need…”
“Yes, I need to get out of here. Do something,” Padme stressed, grabbing the apron she had thrown over the chair and tied it round her waist and pocketing her former guard’s small blaster within the seams.
She still wondered, now and then, in the lengthening silences at night, who he had been. And why he had died for her.
It was regretful she had to forget him. But Padme had not wasted her time at the Planets’ Orbit. After the visit by the elder, dirty little Anakillian Sim had called Dwarf, all her energy had gone into shutting out Palpatine’s voice in her head. To wiping away the memory of her endless hours as his ‘guest’, both within her cell and in the throne room. All those memories, she was determined, would not weigh her down.
She was Padme Amidala Skywalker. She had to be strong. What would her Anakin think if he knew she had simply sat and let the Emperor slowly eat away at her mind?
“I can’t sit in here forever, hiding, waiting for a rescue I can’t even be sure is coming. I…I don’t want to doubt Anakin’s return, but I can’t believe that if he really is no longer Vader, he would just leave me here.”
Darkshadow nodded slowly, understanding written in the creases round his youthful eyes. “No, you can’t. But neither can you leave, your Ladyship. It is far too dangerous, with Bix out there still hunting for you. And rescue will come. Your own sister-in-law, Cali Starshine, is on her way here. It will only be a few days longer.” He did not mention the twins. If their mother knew the danger they were in, that they were at this very instant on their way here to meet with the Emperor, the woman would likely charge out of here this very instant and go to face Palpatine all on her own.
He kept his mouth shut.
“A few days can seem like years when you’re doing nothing but waiting and worrying,” the proud little woman replied, pushing him aside as she left the room. Padme pulled out a scarf and wrapped it round her head as she spoke, walking down the hall faster than Sim could. “I am done sitting and waiting.”
When the bartender opened his mouth to argue, Padme held up a hand. “You don’t need to worry. I’m not going to leave the bar. And I don’t think anyone will suddenly notice the appearance of a new waitress.”
She noticed her guardian’s sly smile and frowned. “What? You don’t think I can wait tables. Trust me, it’s gotta be easier than ruling a planet or giving birth.”
Grabbing a serving tray, an order slip and three full tankards of ale, Padme shoved the kitchen door open with her hip, put her best smile on, and danced out into the room.
The loud, unfamiliar noise of a bar nearly blew her off her feet. The lights were dim, the room smoky and men’s voices shouting over the music. After spending months in the Emperor’s prison and then two weeks in the dim, dark room she had here at the Planets’ Orbit, this was certainly the last thing Padme realized she felt up to.
Her grip on the tray tightened and she lifted her chin proudly, shoving her way into the mass of beings all laughing and drinking.
The spacers paid her little mind, as she had expected, and tips were good. No one made any passes at her, apparently Sim didn’t allow that sort of thing, and she made it through three whole hours without dropping a glass. No one complained when she mixed up orders, only called her back over and she apologized and took care of it. The men, though gruff, smiled her way. One woman, a trader of some sort, even complimented her on her complexion and asked if this was her first day working here.
Their voices and laughter drowned out the memories and for the first time in what seemed forever, Padme was happy.
In the morning, when all the clients had finally gone home and she had helped clean up the kitchen, Padme collapsed in her bed and slept without dreaming. After that, the bar was the center of her waking hours, leaving sleep free of all worries and thoughts.
*** *** ***
From the door, the old man called Dwarf watched the former senator weave around the tables serving drinks and laughing with the customers. In the ill-lighted room it was hard to see, and he had to squint to keep track of her in the dense pack of humanity.
Padme Amidala didn’t noticed she was being watched, and neither did Darkshadow. Or if he did, the dark Anakillian never let Dwarf know it.
As long as she was safe, he wasn’t all that worried. But the bounty hunter was getting closer. There were only so many places to hide, and Bix, having grown up in this sector, knew most of them.
When he ran out of places to look, he would be back to Dwarf’s hovel to demand answers.
He had a decision to make.
*** *** ***
“Star Rider, do you copy? This is Kitara Swiftwind. Do you copy?”
Anakin’s head yanked up from the gadget he had been fiddling with, toward the comm.
Reaching out through the Force, he nudged Obi-wan awake and in a moment the elder Jedi was beside him, wiping sleep from his eyes.
“This is Anakin Skywalker. I copy, Swiftwind.” Taking a deep breath, Anakin fought to stop himself from yelling. “We’re in dire straights here. My…Luke and Leia…they’ve been kidnapped. Imperials…we tracked them, but…”
“I know, Anakin. Don’t worry. We’re on it. I’ve got people on Coruscant who have been informed and as soon as Cali returns with your wife, you and Obi-wan will join them.”
“Them?”
There was a pause as Kitara prepared to try and summarize the happenings of a very long week.“…Boba Fett has been hired to protect Cali. She was attacked by Imperials after leaving Alderaan and with his help was able to get away unharmed. They had to make a stop at Dagobah, but should be on their way to Coruscant. Anakin…I haven’t been able to get in contact with her just yet.” Kitara’s voice on the other end was hesitant when she added, “Cali doesn’t know about the twins just yet.”
“Oh, Force.” Anakin lowered his head and took deep, gasping breaths. Obi-wan laid an understanding hand on his shoulder and sent healing waves through the Force. He could feel the Darkness within his friend, and did what he could to help suppress it.
“What are we going to do?” Obi-wan asked, shaken. What could they do? Padme was hiding on Coruscant, right within the Emperor’s grasp. The twins were on their way there. Cali knew nothing of what was happening and when she rescued Padme, she would be forced to decide whether to try and rescue the twins as well, or get Skywalker’s wife to safety. Saving the twins meant waiting, and waiting meant Palpatine might find all of them.
And he and Anakin could neither find the rebels to beg for help, or go after them on their own. Even if they left now, they would never be to Coruscant in time to help Cali.
“If we could find the Rebel Alliance…” Obi-wan tried to sort through the tangled thoughts he was having while soothing Anakin’s fears. Too much had gone wrong. It was like being back at the wars, when suddenly, everything was turned upside down and you weren’t sure where you could turn; who you could trust.
“I’m sending you coordinates right now.” Kitara explained as numbers appeared on the screen. “These will direct you to Writh. I’m waiting here for you.”
The comm. went dead and the two Jedi were left staring at the path the coordinates traced on their star map.
It led to the Writh asteroid field.
“Well? Any ideas?” the elder Jedi sighed.
Anakin traced along the glowing line of stardust on the screen and thought of his children. Thought of the dreams in which he, as the Emperor, killed everyone he loved. Thought of Cali unknowingly walking into what could be a trap and Padme, still on Coruscant, wondering why he hadn’t come for her.
“We go to Writh. Force, Obi-wan, what other choice do we really have?”
*** *** ***
Hehe. Just a little warning. I have evil up my sleeves! Muahahaha!
Have I mentioned how much I LOVE this time of year?!

Well, at least help is on the way for Padme and the kids... after all that delay! I could scream at Yoda for delaying Cali. I assume that was part of the intention? On to see what happens next!

Woohoo, a postie! I can see that Padme is getting just a little impatient. Course, who can blame her?
I like the holiday. but I'll admit that the color scheme is terrible this year! I loved the Sith Council colors last year.

Cas' Please post soon. I have a massive project due and need something to take my mind off its smaller details ( I might be taking computer programming languages but that doesn't mean that I enjoy the large projects that come out of no where and with only a week to get them done).
I would sick Blackie on you but I'm hoping that a good old fashion guilt trip will work just as well.
See ya.

Hi Daath. Blackie is back to normal and back on this board. See?
*Blackie skates by*
Its good to see him back on his hooves. I still wonder how he got into my closet.... ?:| Oh well I guess I'll never know.
You would think that Cas' would worry about Blackie and his friends. He does have more than just Walter the Crazed Floor Waxer. There's SnowFlake Blackie's Girlfriend, and a few more that will be showing up soon.
*Watches as Snowflake slides by with a set of skies.*
Huh? ?:|
Snowflake heads toward a corner that seems to have been filled with snow.
Uh oh. How did that get there? I better get out of here before I get blamed for it.
