Scout looked at Naos, taken back by his forcefulness. "Are you interrogating me?" she asked, shocked. "Pull a Vader and put me in a memory-wipe machine? You can't make me answer anything. The only person here with half more of a chance than you, Master, is you." She pointed at Naos. "But you're still five points short. Tell me when you get Vader on the line. Maybe he can go ahead and wipe my mind again."

Deric LaRone took off his stormtrooper helmet and brought his comlink up to his lips. "I need a direct line to the Execuror regarding plan z. Please report to him that the commander of the detachment of the 501st has found three Jedi lightsabers matching the designs of two fugitives."

Naos
"Scout, I didn't mean it like that and you know it. I'm telling you to answer him for your own good, because you've kept this bottled up for too long....I am sorry, I just had to say it....." I said with a sigh
With that, I turned away.....
Vader
I recieved a report from the Commander that three lightsabers had been found. I knew who's they were, and my suspicions as of who I sensed on the Tantive IV were correct.
Scout Gash and Naos Redgrave, Scout was once supposed to be my apprentice and Naos was her companion from the Jedi Order. We all had much history together....
And now, perhaps I could finally get them in my grasp...and kill them.

"My fight is with Vader and the Emperor," Scout said. "Not you guys."
She turned away. Something shifted in the Force, silently warning her of coming danger. "Vader knows we're here," she stated.

Naos
"Luke must return soon.....once he does, we will head to Mos Eisley spaceport to find transportation....." Obi-Wan said
I nodded "Then to Aldeeran to get you to Bail. And then we have to find Leia before Vader realizes the truth......"
"It should take him some time, we have enough time...." Kenobi assured

Scout sighed and looked off towards the distance, towards the spot where Luke had disappeared.
--
Luke saw the rising smoke kilometers away.
The Lars homestead was consumed by a fiery blaze. Luke's landspeeder was still slowing towards a stop when he jumped out. Dense, black smoke poured out from the garage door. "Uncle Owen!" he shouted. "Aunt Beru!"
No response.
Luke didn't know where to look first. Dazed and afraid, he stumbled past debris, heart racing, desperately trying to find his aunt and uncle. He tried to think good thoughts. Owen had gone to check the vaporators, so what about Aunt Beru? The hole that had contained the courtyard now resembled a small volcano, erupting large clouds of grey smoke.
Don't be dead, don't be dead... His eyes darted towards the entrance dome. More fire, more smoke. Then he saw them. Two charred, smoldering skeletons, lying in the sand outside the door.
Luke choked and looked away. Something inside of him snapped, and he forced himself to look back at what the stormtroopers had done to his aunt and uncle.
The Empire would figure out what happened when Luke Skywalker had nothing left to lose. Slowly, he felt his anger and determination build up.

Luke!!! (see I posted! haha!)
Luke arrived back at the sandcrawler in grim spirits. There was a tenseness in the air, and Luke was waiting for Scout and Naos to come comfort him. Something from their personalities made it seem like they wanted to, but had other matters on their mind. Scout gave him an apologetic look while Naos avoided his eyes.
Luke looked at Obi-Wan, who was putting Jawas on a homemade pryr. "I want to come with you to Alderaan. There's nothing for me here now. I want to be a Jedi and learn the ways of the Force like my father."

Ben
Ben nodded after Luke finished talking. He looked at him, and felt the sadness in him, both through his eyes and the force. He knew there would be no keeping the boy from accompaning him. "Luke," he said, "You would have been killed, too, and the droids in the hands of the Empire."
He looked at the speeder, and back at Luke, and said, "Shall we?" Before piling into the Landspeeder, with the rest of their party.

Scout once again squeezed into the small space between two large droid parts, and looked up to see Threepio's golden leg above her nose. It wasn't the most comfortable position. She found herself thinking in wry amusement how awkward it must have been for Naos, who was riding on Obi-Wan's lap like a toddler. She let herself melt in the hot sun for a moment, before the landspeeder revved up and hot Tattooinian air met her face like a furnace.
She realized she had left her over-shirt at the Lars' farm, and she was wearing nothing more than her pale blue tanktop and cut-up jeans. She realized how she must have looked to Obi-Wan. Weird, maybe, from being in hiding for so long. He must have had to really sort through his memories to find her out of all the Padawans at the Temple.
Her mind was sluggish from lack of sleep and worry. Finally, she let the quiet monotonic rev of the engine overtake her, and soon she had past into a restless sleep.
--
Darrina wasn't in a cell with Leia. Oh, no, she was in her own little suite complete with a metal slab for a bed and a small steel toilet. Except for the red glow of the floor, there was really nothing to see. Not that she wanted to see anything. She was terrified. Having never met Vader before, she knew she'd be tried with high treason and death.
But she had accomplished one of the Rbellion goals, at least: she was on the Death Star. Just not in the way she had expected.
Oh guys, where are you?

Naos
I was getting extremely sick of sitting on Obi-Wan's lap. I knew one thing: never have a huge group on one small landspeeder. People had to sit on my lap or I had to sit on someone's lap while others were squeezed between droids and had an adult on his lap, while Luke was the one who is comfortable in the drivers seat.
I sighed. He had just lost the people who raised him, and his home. All he had left that he got to see rarely was Obi-Wan. But on the other hand I was glad he was with us. It kept him away from the Empire...or at least more protected than he would have been here, since the Imperials have come to the planet.
But one thing troubled me the most: our lightsabers were at that homestead, and the place was most likely ransacked. So Vader has them.
Well, he can bring it on. We've put up with much worse than just running, we can deal with him. I assured myself

Scout's sleep was only momentary. As soon as they had gotten closer to Mos Eisly, her danger sense made her open one eye, then two. She coughed once, then propped herself up on an elbow--owch! Her nose bumped right into Threepio's leg. Stiffling back a curse, her eyes watered. Wiping them, she stuck her head carefully over the back of Luke's chair and over his shoulder. "Almost there," she said teresly. "We need to get a pilot and get out of here fast. You feel that?" She cocked her head to the side, as if listening to some unknown music. "They've got this place surrounded, too."
"Ah."
Up ahead was a checkpoint, and manning that checkpoint were five Imperial officers.
