Zenobia was very pleased when she heard the senator was more than willing to give her a lift in exchange for her services. Turning around she motioned for the senator to follow her grabbing her speeder she parked round the corner. It took her a few times to get the old speeder to fire up but once she got it started she gave a big smile and thanked it for starting. Leading the senator to her destination Zenobia could feel the unbearable heat which was made worse because Zenobia’s minor intoxication.

As they approached their destination Zenobia noticed some old guy standing around who Zenobia assumed was old Ben. Getting off her bike she was shocked to see he just wasn’t related to Obi-Wan Kenobi but was in fact the Jedi himself in the flesh. Even if the flesh in question was old and wrinkled. This was the same man she had fought against during the Clone Wars. Walking up to the old Jedi, “You probably don’t know me but I was Captain Zenobia of the CIS. May I just say you were a genius and I’m sorry for the war went bad for both of us. Also don’t say I’m not old enough because I was in carbonite for a good while.” Zenobia was a bit sore about not looking her age and waking up to a whole new galaxy had been difficult.
Looking over she saw a dock worker demanding the customary fee however she expected the Hutt’s would want to take their own fee. It was hard to hear what she was saying to the dock worker so Zenobia was able only able to hear was the dock worker saying something about Old Ben Kenobi. He was a hermit who Zenobia knew of. She wondered if he had any relation to Obi-Wan Kenobi who Zenobia had thought against during the Clone Wars. In any case it didn’t matter at all as all Zenobia had to do was get the woman to hire her and Zenobia was sure she could be of use helping the woman avoid the more dangerous parts of Tatooine. It was at this point the lady said something to her about her being an Imperial Senator and wanting to keep a low profile due to the Empire’s enslavement policy for aliens. Stepping closer so no one could overhear “don’t worry I and most others with brain know you Senators have little say in what happens. However you could probably use some extra protection anyway, also I can help you avoid most of the dangerous parts of Tatooine if your heading out to Old Ben. All I ask is maybe you give me a lift on your ship?”.

Sitting in a local cantina Zenobia was on a stool right by the bar so she could get easy refills. In fact she couldn’t remember how many she had today thinking to herself that it must be a good day then. Whenever Zenobia didn’t have a job this is what the former CIS officer would do to make herself feel better. She was about to have another when one of her informants came in which made her groan a bit wishing he had come earlier in the day. Whispering into her ear “there is a CR-90 in orbit and it’s sending down a shuttle”. After he had given Zenobia the information she slipped credit chips into his pocket always finding bribing someone from the spaceport worth it. It was especially good info as that kind of ship was expensive so maybe she could get some good pay. After getting paid he slipped her a note of where she should wait.

Waiting by the spaceport she took a seat on some cargo containers waiting for the shuttle to land. After which she would make sure that whoever they were they would hire her for a guide or bodyguard. Someone that could afford a ship like that she was certain would need it. Hell maybe she could finally make a dent in the money she needed to leave scum hole.
First draft let me know if it needs changes. Also I probably made a few spelling errors which still have to work out. Just wanted to get something up.

Oh I’m not asking to use the light-foils myself just offering an alternative to those wanting to use lightsabers.

My character is going to be an ex CIS officer if that’s ok.
What about this as an alternative to a lightsaber.

Will be keeping an eye one this. Also have a few questions to ask:

1. Since Obi-Wan is on Tatooine to protect Luke why does he decide to leave him there?
2. Does Leia get get the Lightsaber that Obi-Wan gave to Luke in the original or we just going to see what happens?
3. Does Leia get told about her real parents from Obi-Wan?

>Nationalize cottage industry

Excuse me, but how do you expect the state to seize someone's homes and for this to work?

Honestly, reviewing the app it reads more like you're tacking on what I'm saying and not really critically applying any or much of it. It's at the stage that if you really want to be someone in southern Russia does it really need to be a liberal democracy? Frankly, the military order would be more capable of asserting itself. A Kuban Hetmanate would be more viable in the area given the relatively powerful political position of the Cossacks in the area.


Sorry didn’t mean for it to be read as literally siezeing there homes. It was more me saying that I wanted them to be now government employees and work in government workshops.

Also this was a rough draft just to see if it was heading the correct direction. Also the reason most things seem a bit tacked on is that I have been trying to save what little is left from my original. This is rewrite number 10 so at this point I think will just make it worse so I am scraping it and starting again. With probably a new government.
Hope this is closer to what you are looking for.
