It’s A Muddle

Sometimes you just have to do things.No matter how much you loathe them and want to walk away.Like this stupid imperial academy…It’s terrible.It is the absolute worst place I’ve seen in The Galaxy…I don’t get how my sister did it…

These people are the purest evil I have ever witnessed and I say this without considering whatever they’ve done with my sister so you can see that has to be bad.I don’t understand how people actually come here off their own accord.It disgusts me…but sometimes they don’t know any better, like Jai Kell. At least Ezra was able to help him.Good for them…but I have to stay here until I find my sister.

He sighed

Some days I feel like this is pointless and I should have left when I had the chance, but when Ezra came, it gave me new hope.Maybe it’s a Jedi thing, or the fact that they still exist?

He knows how to find me, and eyes and ears inside Imperial HQ always helps for the rebellion.At least I can do some good…other than looking for my sister of course…

Someday I’ll find my sister, someday I’ll get out of this dreadful place, and someday the galaxy will be free.

Ezra Bridger

He reached out with the force and closed his mind to the already quiet world he was on.He stretched his senses,trying to feel their presence,trying to connect with them.They seemed so close yet so far away,then, finally he saw it.

Hera,she was happy…about her child!!He remembered when she told him,just a day or two ago…now it felt like all that was ages ago,as if the last few days had lasted a millennia,but he mustn’t dwell on that,he needed to reach Sabine,he was counting on her…had she figured it out??Had she realised what he needed her to do??He had to tell her…but how?

Just then,he noticed something he wasn’t particularly looking for in the force,a distant presence,a familiar presence…Ahsoka.She was looking right at him,and he could see her,as solid as he could see himself.She knew Ezra was out there somewhere,and was deciding whether or not it was time to bring him home.

If we could understand our emotions…

They’re gone, dead.Rogue One is dead.Everyone around me is miserable, but I don’t want to be.Rouge one are proof that if we have hope, we can win; and they were good people, the force will take care of them.And they will live on in our hearts forever.So why is everyone so depressed? I feel like their depression is reflecting upon me, and I don’t want it to!! I didn’t even know them. I’d met captain Andor once, briefly, but that was it; and still I feel like this is a personal loss, and I don’t like it.Its as if there’s this unpleasant, dead weight in my stomach that’s making everything seem odd.It’s strange.I’ve just been getting these random, almost nostalgic feelings ever since we left Scarif. It makes no sense.These don’t feel like my emotions. They’re disconnected from me and are making me feel disconnected from everyone else, for one reason.Mon Mothma kept tearing up when she contacted me after the battle and she almost switched off the hologram…

I’d actually been having a good week.The relief mission to Mykapo went really well and my paper for the apprentice legislature earned me a fair amount of ugly looks from the Imperial officers; but then this happened…The Death Star.

I mean, we got the plans, mission accomplished. At what cost? Said a nagging voice in her head which she tried to silence, but failed.I know many Rebels have already died for the cause and many, many more will die in the future; but the ones who survive will remain strong, because we have hope.

She was broken away from the world of her thoughts by Captain Antilles voice, ringing through her room.”Princess Leia, please report to the bridge, we’ll be coming out of hyperspace over Tattooine shortly”,he said; and she followed.Another adventure lay ahead of her.

Amyln Holdo of Gatalenta

“What would we do, if we couldn’t run away from our responsibilities, away from all the awful things that are happening in the Galaxy.What would we do, if we couldn’t find ways to distract ourselves from all our pain, and suffering.We would be broken…and we’d never have the strength to fight back.The Empire would shove us on the ground and we would stay they forever.But they never really have, and they never ever will, because we have hope, and in the times that we’re most upset, and feel like the entire universe is against us, we look to each other, we look to our past, we look to our future, and that reminds us what we fight for, and so we never give up.We have hope, and that is why no one will ever truly silence us.As long as hope lives in the Galaxy, evil will never be allowed to flourish.That is our life’s duty, to make sure that this hope never dies.To make sure that love, happiness and unity always prevail over hatred, pain and suffering.

The Empire rules with fear.They think that because they beat us, we will never rise higher than them.But they’re wrong.The way they beat us, is why we have risen much much higher than they could ever dream of rising.So stand, don’t let fear control you, let hope control you instead.Let us rise up together.Higher and higher each day, until they finally fall so far beneath us, they will really never rise up again.”

She met raucous applause as she finished and soon Leia was breathing in her ear,”Nice speech”,with a sly smile on her face; they departed the bridge to go prepare for their next mission.

Han…Han Solo

It was a dark time.The empire was young but already threatening to consume all the hope that was eft in the Galaxy.But amidst that darkness, was an incredibly free spirit.

The looming shadow of the Empire had forced the people to take desperate measures to stay alive.Crime Syndicates were emerying all over the Galaxy.Back on Corellia, they had Lady Proxima.They did her dirty work in exchange for food, shelter, and protection; but he wanted more.He was a pilot, best in the Galaxy, and he wanted nothing more than to fly away from that desolate place.Steal some Coaxium, make some good money, buy a ship, leave, and forever be alone with her.He was the good guy, who happened to be very good at running away, but he didn’t care.If he was up there, in the sky, he would be unstoppable. The Empire could try as hard as they wanted ,to rid the Galaxy of love and happiness, but as long as even one single soul, had hope, they would never succeed.

Han Solo was meant for more than what he had, and was ready to fight for it.

Ben

Ah, that little droid, he thought as he sat down to talk to Luke.What was he going to tell the boy?Oh!You know your father was my Padawan and he turned to the dark side in an attempt to save your mother so I cut off his arms and legs and let him burn in lava which caused her to loose the will to live and die right after giving birth to you and and your sister Leia, who is the princess of Alderaan.Yes, she is the girl in the hologram.He had been dreading this day since he’d landed on that dust ball, and having Anakin’s beloved droid around didn’t really help.The pain of loosing him was felt so fresh and he couldn’t even begin to imagine how Ahsoka felt about it.If only he could find her, they could have brought him back, together. “Anaikin was a good friend”,he said,”and a cunning warrior”.He had to choose his words very carefully, only because he couldn’t bare what Luke would think of him if he knew the truth.The young Jedi Ezra had not revealed Obi-Wan’s existence to anybody, but now it was time for him to do that himself.Luke would learn about his family eventually, when he was a trained Jedi.It was his destiny.Senator Organa and the Rebels needed help and he was their only hope.

Apparently its not alright to kill people.Or even so much as punch them in the face, because no matter what they’ve done, no matter how horrid they were to you, if you hurt them, everything is your fault. Kannen is a Jedi, all his life he’s been taught about peace and balance and serenity, so he’s peaceful and balanced and serene…for the most part.Even Ezra’s just the same now…but me,I’m a warrior, all I’ve ever known is to fight and fight, until I win, and that usually means my opponent is dead.I guess I could change the way I am, but even then, nothing else is going to change.No matter what I do, I’m still going to be a criminal to the empire and a traitor to Mandalore and a disgrace to my family.So what’s the point?It won’t change anything. Kannen has a lot of faith in people, but he’s too idealistic for my liking.In a Galaxy at war, filled with pain and suffering, he still manages to see the good in people, and I respect that.I just don’t see that.I’m a Mandalorian, and a proud one, and I will never forget our ways, but maybe if I spend enough time with these two crazy Jedi, something about me could change.

The name’s Ahsoka Tano

After the clone war, she was lost, confused and alone. Before, whenever she needed help, she would reach out, and sense the presence of the Jedi through the force, and they would guide her.Now, she felt empty.That connection she could always rely on, was gone.She felt less like a Jedi than ever.She had buried her lightsabers in a fake grave on Corusant with all the rest of them, but her connection with the force was isolating her.All she managed to hold on to was her Jedi utility belt, and that wasn’t enough to be recognised as one.She was travelling through hyperspace now, to who knows where, but those gentle blue spirals always seemed to calm her.She decided to meditate on the little floor space she had in her ship, and she thought to herself…you can never be alone in the force.

Rebels

Hope?Rebellions are built on hope.Hope is what gives us our strength.Hope is what empowers us to rise up and keep hitting the Empire back, harder and harder every time they try to gun us down.Only if we believe that there is hope, will we be able to win this fight!We can’t stay hidden forever!If we don’t prove to them what we’re capable of, they will never believe it.And don’t tell me that they don’t need to believe it for it to be true, because it is true, we are capable of defeating them, they just need to know it.They need to see it. This mission is essential for our survival.If they’ve truly built a weapon with this much power then we have to at least try to destroy it!You’re all rebels aren’t you?Since when did we loose hope so easily?Since when did we shrink from facing insurmountable odds to get something done?!!Now is our time!This is not when we give up!This is when we rise to our call!You can sit here to see an Imperial flag reign across the galaxy, or you can stand up and do something about it. We all have it inside us , that fire, that passion, now is the time to show it. This is a risk that we must take!We are all that’s left to push back the empire. We are hope.

Fear is a disease,Hope is its only cure

Rose Tico

She used to work behind pipes all day, and now, she was some Rebel hero.Now she really understood how Finn felt.It was strange becoming so popular all of a sudden, even though she hadn’t really done anything…unless you count endangering the fleet.As she lay in her bacta suit, she remembered the little boy they met on Cantonica. He was just like her, but special.He had the heart of a hero, a true rebel, and somehow she knew that he was going to help them some day.Her thoughts were interrupted by someone who called “Rose!”, as they entered the room, and she could only guess who it was. Smiling, she sat up as straight as she could in her clunky suit to get a better look at Finn.She had a 1000 questions.”Where are we?” was her first one, which met the reply,”We’re on the Millennium falcon.How are you feeling?”.”WHAT!!!”,she exclaimed,”The real actual Millennium Falcon?We’re on it?Like flying through space in it?The Correllian ship that made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs!”,she couldn’t believe it, and Finn couldn’t believe how mesmerised she was.Finn said yes, they were indeed on the real, actual Millennium Falcon, that legendary ship that made the kessel run in less than 12 parsecs, and her expression, was priceless.She wanted to jump out of bed and run across the whole ship that instant and check out every single detail of it.She wanted scream and explore and have some fun, but Finn insisted that she should rest.Irritated but content, she lay back in bed and her thoughts wandered off again.This was how they were going to win.Not fighting what they hated, saving what they loved.
