New Life - Prologue.
I just bought a Zam Wesell figure! So I
've gotta think of ways of letting her interact with my other figures -
which are mostly Original Trilogy chars. Meaning... finding
a way to let her live through Ep2. This is a possibility, it'll be explained
more as we go along. (WHEEE..... the plot bunnies are
biting like crazy!)
Damn those Jedi! Zam panted as she frantically
ran down the street. I can handle one, but TWO! She didn't look
back as she wove in and out and sometimes ran into the lowlife of low-level
Coruscant.
She was glad for her ability to change to human form. It made running
so much easier.
A crash resounded somewhere behind her and she turned her head for
a second to see one of the Jedi chasing after her. She saw hate in his
face, and gasped, and ran even faster. An angry Jedi was too much!
A thought entered her mind... something she'd been planning for a long
time. She brought her wrist up and punched a couple buttons on a small
keypad to activate her planned escape route.
She looked around and raced into an open club. Yes! She hesitated
to think for just half a second on the consequence of her actions before
she ripped off a patch on her arm and threw it hastily onto a table, pressed
a key on her wrist again, and swallowed.
"Where..." she took a hasty breath. "Where is a back door?" she shot
at a knowledgeable looking creature (well, at least not swaying uncontrollably
or staring at a wall).
"That way." He pointed and she ran toward his point, turned a corner,
and - YES! There was a door!
Letting go of a triumphant grin she threw it open and lunged outside,
finding herself in an alleyway. Finally free! This is my chance.
She glanced backwards, a very slight twinge of regret invading her emotions.
But she smirked wryly. Sorry, Jango... it's been fun! Take good care
of your son. She thought at her employer. Then she looked down the
dark murky corridor, affixed her veil, took a breath, and ran.
