Escape from the Empire!

You knew when you signed on to become a member of Princess Leia Organa’s escort that there would be inherent danger from the outspoken senator’s enemies in the Empire, but you had no idea that the Emperor’s second hand man, Darth Vader would so brazenly and openly attack her ship with the full might of an entire ship’s compliment of elite storm troopers!

The defensive battle in which you participated was quick and lopsided. The Empire’s troops overwhelmed the Tantive IV’s tiny security detail. In the battle you were thrown against a bulkhead and knocked out .

You come to in the smoky corridor used by agents of the Empire to breach the ship. It smells of ozone, burnt flesh and death.

Near the point at which the ship was breached, on the opposite end from the T-intersection of the corridor in which you now lie, two storm troopers stand guard. They are deep in the discussion, pondering how the insurgents might have become powerful enough to warrant the attention of the Empire in the first place and are not paying attention to the bodies littering the hall.

If you move carefully, you may be able to slither around the T-intersection at the end of the hall, out of view of the Storm troopers. With a little luck, maybe you can make your way to the escape pods.

Of course, if you make the storm troopers aware that you are alive, maybe they will merely take you prisoner. A person who is a prisoner is still a person who drawing breath. Maybe you can convince them this is all a mistake!

The choice is yours:

Do you try to slip around the corner,
or do you want to give yourself up?

Majority of the first 5 responses makes the choice.

 

Slip around the corner to find an escape pod.

 

Around the corner.
