h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

A few clicks out of Mos Eisley, a small domed building lies. In the underground garage sits a swoop bike and an A-Wing Interceptor.

*Enters the main room, a hologram of Qui-Gon Jinn sits on the mantle, The room also contains a hammock and a chest*

Now, to re-arm and to focus the powers the council has given me leave to use. I hope that I am strong enough to resist...

*Starts construction of a lightsaber. Two studs give it varying length of between 18 inches and three feet, the blade is blue and crackles with a fierce intensity*

Very good.

*meditates*

*Wanders over to the cooking pot*

Let me see if mundane uses of these powers are possible

*Sparks of lightning strike the pot. At first they are deep red in colour*

I will resist, I can resist. I must resist.

*The sparks fade to a light blue colour*

I knew it, but the degree of control needed is as high as the council suggested. Maybe they are right.

*Lies in hammock*

*Wakes*

Hmm, I smell dinner! Well, that means I'm not dead. Force projection eh, another useful talent....

*Scoops food into bowl, eats in silence before returning to the hammock*

*awakes again, scrambles in pockets*

Ahh, there they are!

*Lights up a cigarette and stares at the setting suns of Tatooine*

*Scribbles onto a pad*

Today I have added two more powers to my repetoire. I have successfully used the Force Lightning, and more importantly kept my control. Interestingly I have twice been able to manifest my spirit in the halls of the council chamber. This seems to be an advanced form of my telepathy as I am unable to manifest objects, or interfere with solid matter.

*Puts pen down and meditates some more.*

~~Annat! I speak to your in your time of struggle... As one who is able to contain dark powers I give you a piece of advice...

You cannot get rid of the feeling of anger but you do not act upon it.

hen you feel the dark anger, HARNESS IT and channel it through your force power.

But never react in anger... whenever raged, do not show it but subdue it.

Then you can hold those powers which we fear.

May the force be with you...~~

~~"Thankyou master, your support is comforting in my time of trial. Also, I sense that Paber is distressed at my dissappearance, I hope the council will show him the same encouragement and support"~~

~~You did leave rather abruptly. With no goodbyes.~~

~~I know, but I felt it best that he not know I left, in case he tried to find me. He is not ready for the powers which you possess and I am harnessing.~~

~~But your telepathy may lead him to you~~

~~Hopefully with the Bespin Quest he will be too preoccupied. Please inform me of his performance in the trials, for now I must rest.~~

*Force pulls lightsaber to him, and clips it to belt*

Lets see if that swoop bike is worth the credits I paid for it...

*Leaps onto Swoop Bike and dissappears into the desert*

*Swoop bike brakes.*

Home. Nice.

*Heads to his hammock*

~~Annat. Inform your former pupil that he is to report to the waiting room to start his trial.

His whereabouts are continually erratic~~

~~He is in the waiting room master. Should I risk a manifestation in the trial hall do you think?~~

I shall manifest myself in the trial hall.

*Lies back, it seems as if his body becomes an empty shell*

LOBOT II: /\/ Master Tayswi we're-- *static*/\/

*awakes and proceeds to gather supplies for the mission to Bespin*

*Sits and awaits a telepathic communication regarding either Paber or Tobru*
