Imperial slugs ditched,
Han announces his greatness
with a smug grin.
---------------------------------
Luke, his head encased
in a blast-shielded helmet,
can't see the remote.
--------------------------------
But Obi-Wan reminds
him that seeing isn't believing, and to
stretch out with his feelings.
-------------------------------
Han, duly unimpressed,
glances to where a wookiee and
a droid play dejarik.
-------------------------------
On a round table, tiny
claymation holograms try to beat the
crap out of each other.
------------------------------
Lulled into complacency
by Ben's force training, Luke is zapped
by a floating ball.
-----------------------------
Han's mockery of hokey
religions and ancient weapons stings
Obi-Wan's masked pride.
-----------------------------
Luke's first step into
a larger world is interrupted
by an asteroid collision.
-----------------------------
Alderaan destroyed-- Ben
senses the sudden quietness after
a million screams subside.
----------------------------
Suddenly, from 10 o'clock,
A TIE fighter appears, seemingly
unaware of the Falcon.
---------------------------
Obi-Wan, always kind,
suggests letting it go, but Solo
has other ideas.
--------------------------
"He's heading for that small moon!"
That's no moon, Ben thinks...Governor
Tarkin's been busy.
---------------------------
The Falcon shudders,
locked in a dance of death with
a tractor beam.
---------------------------
Obi-Wan searches his mind
for all the alternatives to fighting
that he can recall.
