Heart of the Legacy

[SkywalkerRules]

Lemia smiled. "It's a pleasure to meet you all too." After she greeted everyone, Lemia went behind the counter, and fixed them a drink. "I usually don't do this but... you guys don't have to pay."

 

Lyna turned to her friend. "So... what'cha been doing these years?" She took a sip of her blue milk. Lemia shrugged. "Well... I do have a baby now. His name's Toz. He's at home with J-3PO, the protocol droid." Lyna gasped.

 

"Oh my gosh! You're a mother! Congratulations! But where's the dad?" Lemia looked down. "Trey was killed by the Sand people when he was hunting womp rats. But... I'm still movin' on."

 

Lyna looked at her old friend. She placed a hand on Lemia's shoulder. "I'm sure he's still watching over you. Don't worry." Lemia smiled faintly.

[Jedi Atomic]

Ganner stood up and grabed her hand and shook it. "I'm Ganner. Nice to meet you. A drink would hit the spot right about now. Thanks for it being free." Ganner said as he sat down and started drinking out of a cup.

[SkywalkerRules]

Lemia nodded, and smiled at Ganner. "I'm always loyal to give someone a good drink. And you're welcome." Lemia turned around and worked on the drinks for other people.

 

As Lyna drunk her blue milk, a young man with shoulder length brown hair came behind her. He was handsome, and wore a black jacket, blue pants, brown boots, and googles on his head.

 

"Hello, Lyna. Long time no see." Lyna didn't turn around. "Rock. Should've known it was you." Rock smiled. "Aww, c'mon, butterfly. I just wanted to see you again. Let me buy you another drink."

 

Lyna turned to Rock and glared at him. "Look, the reason why I didn't want to see you again was that you kept breaking the law, bullied people..." She turned back to the counter. "And you hurted my feelings!"

 

Rock looked at Lyna sadly. "But Lyna---!" "You know what, Rock?! Just leave me alone!" Suddenly, she felt his hand grab her arm. Rock looked angry himself. "I said I wouldn't leave you! And I won't!"

 

"Rock, let go of me! Let go!!"

 

((Don't kill Rock, guys! I've got a plan for him.))

[DrPhil2501]

Cade pulled out his Blaster and put up against Rocks left temple of his skull.

 

"You heard the lady. Let go of her, or you will find out what it feels like to have a blaster bolt right through your head!" Cade switched the safety off of his pistol. "Your boyfriend here seems a little abusive to women, Lyna. I dislike people who threaten women..."

[Jedi Atomic]

Ganner jumped up grabbing his saber. He ignited it and put it near Rock's throat. "Me either. Mess with her you mess with us."

[Empress Padme]

" Didn't your Master ever teach you to use your lightsaber as a last resort?" Tia looked at the guys." I don't view seeing who the tougher guy is as a' last resort'.Jedis nowadays so uncivilized."

[Jedi Atomic]

Ganner unignited his saber and put it down to his belt keeping it in his hand. He looked over at the girl that said something. "And who might you be?" He said calmly.

[Empress Padme]

" Tia Allana. A Jedi.....when I want to be." the Arkanian female grinned. " Like right now I choose to be a Jedi ,hence the not minding my own business. Males and their lightsabers," she shakes her head." Some things never change. I sense the lot of you are Force users."

She looked at the guys." Did you miss the day they said' there is no emotion, there is peace' speech."

Tia let out a giggle.

[DrPhil2501]

"Wha', that old arcaic Jedi Code used during the old republic era? I think not!" Cade grinned, and immediatly pulled a hard look at Rock. "Now, my friend! There is the question of what to do with you... Lyna, I am open to suggestions!"

[SkywalkerRules]

Lyna got up from the stool, and shook her head. "Don't do anything. It's all right." She turned to Rock. "I think you better leave."

 

Rock looked at Lyna sadly. "All right. So it's gonna be like that? Fine. I still love you though." After that, he left. "Whatever..." Lyna mumbled. She looked at the others.

 

"When Rock and I were 18, we use to go on joyrides here on Tatooine. I took breaks from the circus, and hungout with him."

 

"Ya think we're gonna get caught for this?" Lyna asked Rock, as they sped around in the landspeeder. "Not at all, butterfly. Not at all."

 

"We were having a good time... until we heard sirens."

 

"This is the Officer of Mos Eisley! Pull over now!" Lyna turned to Rock. "You heard him. Pull over!" Rock grinned. "Not a chnace." He pressed a button.

 

"And that's when it started."

 

"Rock!! What the blazes are you doing?!" Lyna shouted. "Just hold on tight, baby!"

 

"We went through many paths to get away from the officers, until...

 

"Lyna? Ya know I love you, right?" Lyna narrowed her eyes at Rock. "Yeah?" Rock pushed Lyna out of the landspeeder. "Then JUMP!!!" As Lyna was on the ground, she grew angry. "Rock, you idiot! Don't leave me!!!"

 

"And that's what happened. Officers got me, took me back to Bonty, and I got punished by him. I never spoke to Rock again... until now." Lyna looked down, upset at the memory of Rock.

[Empress Padme]

Tia looked at Cade. " Kid I'm old enough to be your mother, so listen to your elders you might learn something.Your a Skywalker too. What is with my family and Skywalkers? " Tia turned to Lyna. " This Rock guy could have changed ....or he could still be a schutta. Best to deal with the unfinished business between you two while you have the chance, cause you may regret that you never did someday.Trust me on that." Tia gave a sad look.

[SkywalkerRules]

Lemia placed a gentle hand on Lyna's shoulder. "What do you think, Lyna?" The young woman glanced at everyone. She felt so unsure about Rock.

 

"Yeah... but I can tell you, he's still the same old Rock I knew. I sense that deep in his heart... he's still mean and cruel to others. I've seen his actions. Rock just wanted me so he could impress me."

 

Lyna turned to Lemia, and bowed. "I apologize for what happened. I promise, nothing like this will happen in your bar again."

 

Lemia shrugged and smiled warmly. "Aww, don't sweat it, sweetie. I had lots of fights here before, and believe me... they were not easy to stop." Suddenly she began to giggle lowly. "But Rock pushing you out of the speeder... that's messed up." She tried to hold back the laughter.

 

Lyna frowned at her old Togruta friend, and smiled. "Aw, be quiet, Lemia. You think everything's funny."

 

Cyan, the little binjinphant, popped her head out of Lyna's bag. She needed air, because she hid in the bag for a long time.

[DrPhil2501]

Cade examined the stranger. She didn't look that old to be his mother.

 

"What makes you think I'm a Skywalker?" Cade holstered his blaster.

[SkywalkerRules]

Lyna also looked at Tia. If she said she was a Jedi... then she could join them! "The lady seems nice. Although she doesn't look like a Jedi, I sure feel it in her." Lyna smiled.

 

Lemia saw the little binjinphant come out of Lyna's bag. "Oooh! That thing is so cute! What's its name?!" Lyna glanced down, and saw Cyan. She pulled the little binjinphant out of the bag, and placed it on the counter.

 

"Her name's Cyan. She's a binjinphant." Lyna smiled, and stroked Cyan's smooth fur. Lemia patted it as well. "Cute little girl."

 

As Lemia patted Cyan, Lyna focused her attention back to Tia. Then she turned to Cade. "Wait, Cade. She says she's a Jedi, right? If we gather more allies to stop the Sith, the Jedi will rise again. You think she could join us?" She waited for Cade's answer patiently.

[DrPhil2501]

Cade shrugged. "Thats up to her to decide..." he said simply. "Though we need allies to fight the Sith, what right do we have to demand this woman to join us?"

Payne sat in the corner table drinking his hit of juma. He studied carefully at the group, and had confirmed they were indeed Jedi, as they have said. But Payne didn't care who they were, what they were or why they were even here. He stood up from his table to exit the cantina to meet up with his appointment with his client: Syn.

[SkywalkerRules]

Lyna sighed and looked down ashamed. "You're right Cade. I'm sorry." She saw a male Zabrak leave the cantina. He looked kinda scary, but she didn't want to think about it. But something inside her said to follow him.

 

She turned back to Cade and the others. "I'm... gonna go for a walk. See you guys later." Lyna walked out of the cantina. What she really wanted to do was to follow this mysterious man.

 

Lyna walked behind many walls, as people passed by her. She wanted to be kept unseen by him, so she wouldn't get in trouble. "Why am I always curious about things? I'm beginning to be like Cyan." She chuckled to herself.

[Jedi Atomic]

"Michael, c'mon, we're going to follow her make sure she stays out of trouble. Cade you coming along or staying." Gannersaid, then started towards the door leading outside, Michael quickly gulping down his free drink.

 

"Thanks for the drink." he said as he started after Ganner.

 

They kept following her around buildings and around people. she seems as if she's looking for something. he thought as she seemed quick about her little stroll.

[Empress Padme]

" How I know your a Skywalker...I might tell you someday.Sure I'll join you guys though I do have a co-pilot who is my best friend so she would have to come too.Our ship got ....destroyed.So we have been stranded here. She'll love you guys." Tia said.

[DrPhil2501]

Cade decied to remain behind. If Lyna said she was going for a walk, she was going for a walk. And besides, she could probablt take care of herself. She was a Jedi, afterall. But Cade had his worries about Lyna, if something had ever happened to her. But for now, Cade urgently needed a drink. "Could I have Corelian ale please?" he asked a bartendar, as he handed him the credits to pay for his beverage.

 

Cade was growing a little suspicious of this new lass. He was ever so curious as to how she learned Cade's identity. But now was probably not to worry about such things. They are, afterall, still recovering from a battle.

 

"I am most flattered that you're joing our crew, sis. Except our only problem is, we techinically don't have a ship... well, not a real one, anyway..."

Payne had passed through the slave quarters to get to Eastern Mos Espa. He walked by a group of children playing with a small rubber ball, which had accidentally hit Payne on the head. The children laughed, then stopped suddenly when they saw the cold face of the Zabrak. But the mercinary gave them a smile, and roughed up the hair of one of the child slaves.

 

"Hey mister, you dropped this..." Payne turned around to see that a boy had held out small datapad containing info about his client's briefing of the mission. He took it from the kid, and gave him a Trugget as a reward. Payne had rarely been this kind to strangers, but the child earned his reward for his sense. "Thanks, kid..." and Payne left the Slave quarters.

 

He had the strangest feeling of being followed, so he turned around to see that a girl was meters away. He gave her a cold, ignorant look and walked away.

[SkywalkerRules]

Lemia rolled her eyes and smiled. "That Lyna. She's always been curious about everything... even when I took care of her. But now that she's a grown woman... I see the same good-hearted Lyna."

 

As one of her fellow bartenders gave Cade a Corellian ale beverage, Lemia desperately felt like going home to her baby boy. The thought of leaving her 8-month-old baby Toz was just sad for her. But her trusty protocol droid, J-3PO, always took good care for him. So there was nothing to worry about.

 

"I'm sure you guys'll find a ship somehow. Many people here in Mos Espa would love to offer you rides... for creds, sometimes." Lemia told her fellow bartender to keep the service coming, until nightfall. Then she came from behind the counter, grabbing her bag.

 

She turned to Cade and Tia. "Well, I'm gonna go home now. You guys can come with me if you like, seeing that you all don't have a place to stay." She walked out the door with a warm smile.

 

----------------------------------------------------------

 

Lyna continued to walk after the male Zabrak. She wondered if he was a spy... or an individual solider. She also hoped that he wasn't working for the Sith. That would be a problem.

 

Suddenly, she saw him looking back at her, with a cold look. She gasped, and hid behind the wall. That look brought shivers down her spine. Lyna built up her courage again, and peeked. He continued to walk. As did she.

 

"Where is he going?" Lyna thought to herself. This was one long walk she took... even from the cantina.

 

((I hope there'll be a scene where Deliah Blue and Lyna sees each and fights for Cade. That would be too funny! ))

[Empress Padme]

Keira Bloom walked over to Tia.

 

" Hey.What's so urgent." she asked Tia.

 

" See that boy." Tia pointed to Cade.

 

" Yeah, what of him." responded Keira.

 

" He's a Skywalker." Tia said.

 

" Ohhh." Keira said." So we are hanging with them for awhile."

 

" Yeah.Hope that's not a problem?" Tia asked.

 

" No. He's a Skywalker. It's your...duty." responded Keira.

[SkywalkerRules]

Bonty Zam landed his ship in the Docking Bay of Mos Espa. As he and his henchmen came out, he spotted the one person he despised. Lyna Honso. Bonty smiled coldly.

 

"There's my little slave girl again, being sneaky as always. Wonder what she's up to this time."

 

Suddenly, something amazing came up in his mind. Bonty turned to his Noghri henchmen. "Boys? Get ready, 'cause we're gonna have a big circus show tonight! On the outside of Mos Espa!"

 

As they walked back into the ship, Bonty thought of all the clever scemes he could think of. If Lyna was depressed... he would step in the game, and offer her the job back. But with a shocking surprise.

 

The Crazy Bantha Circus ship flew towards the outside of Mos Espa, preparing for the greatest show in the Galaxy.

[DrPhil2501]

Cade had considered what Lemia had said. "Or there is of coarse the option of "borrowing" a ship, without permision" he thought.

 

After Cade had skulled down his drink, he got up from the bar stool. "Welp, I'm sick of this place and everybody in it." Cade smirked. "I'm gonna find the others and see what they are up too. Wanna come, Tia?"

[Empress Padme]

" Sure. This is Keira by the way. My best bud." Tia pointed to Keira.

 

Keira bowed." Nice to meet you."

 

Keira looked at Tia." Our ship's done for.I did see some nice ships that have been there since we landed weeks ago. It's worth checking out. Rumors around the docking port is that one of the owner's has umm... expired. So very soon I foresee a fight over the ship. I 'persuaded' a docking officer to keep an eye on it for me."

[DrPhil2501]

As Payne had reached the East side of Mos Espa, in no little than five minutes, he entered a sand-stone hut in the center of a courtyard, which was a Firearms and Armory Store. As he entered it, his client was waiting for him behind the desk; Jariah Syn. The interior was dark, and had various sorts of weaponry attatched to the walls. There was also a holographic Projector in the center of the shop that was shaped like a round basin.

 

"Your late!" Syn glared.

 

"Only by two minutes, Syn. I want details on this rescue mission. I also want to know everything you know of what we are dealing with here!"
