"I'm gonna shut down everything except for the emergency power systems." Han said as he walked back into the cockpit now with Leia.

"Sir, I'm almost afraid to ask, but does that include shutting me down?" C3PO asked.

"I'm beginning to hope so." Greyson muttered and Leia suppressed a smile.

"No, I need you to talk to the Falcon, find out what's wrong with the hyperdrive." Han replied.

The ship tilted to the left then to the right.

"Sir, it's possible this asteroid we're in is not entirely stable." C3PO informed Han.

Han tilted his head ever so slightly to the side and sarcastically said, "Not entirely stable? Well, I'm so glad you're here to tell us these things."

"Han, don't be mean, he's only doing what he's programmed for." Greyson muttered. She tugged anxiously on her gloves, wishing Luke were there. He wouldn't have been very much help, but he'd be able to ease the tension and bring her some comfort.

"Whatever," Han rolled his eyes. "Chewie take professor here and plug him into the hyperdrive."

"Sometimes I just do not understand human behavior." The gold droid commented as he left.

"Greyson why don't you go with them," Han suggested, though it was in a 'get out of my cockpit' tone.

Greyson angrily grabbed the jacket off of the back of the co-pilot chair and followed after Chewbacca and 3PO, her boots loudly clanking on the ground.

       While heading back to the hyperdrive, the ship tilted and shook. Greyson rolled her eyes. You have got to be shitting me, she thought. Han walked out of the door and looked at her. "Figured you'd need my help."

Luke's ship had landed in the murky water of Dagobah. He huffed and began taking his stuff ashore. He clambered his way through the thick brush to where Artoo was. "Ready for some power?" He asked his droid as he set his stuff down. Artoo let out a beep in response. Luke smiled and plugged his companion in. "Alright, now all I gotta do is find this Yoda." He said looking around. "If he even exists." He added.

"It's a really strange place to find a Jedi Master." Luke commented as he opened a metal tin filled with food. "This place gives me the creeps." He told Artoo who beeped. "Still... There's something familiar about this place." Artoo gave a shrill beep. "I don't know," Luke said growing paranoid. "I feel like,"

"Feel like what?" A gravelly voice asked

Luke whipped around, yanking out his blaster, pointing it at the owner of the voice, a small green creature. "Like I'm being watched." Luke finished.

"Away put your weapon! I mean you no harm!" The green creature spoke his words out of order, still cowarding behind his arms. He peeked an eye out. "I am wondering... why are you here?"

Very slowly, Luke lowered his blaster and spoke, "I'm looking for someone."

"Looking? Found someone, you have, I would say." The creature giggled and Luke stared back at him, blankly, wondering whether or not he was sane.

Luke smiled nervously as he put his blaster away, figruing the creature was harmless. "Right,"

"Help you I can, yes, mmm."

"I don't think so," Luke smiled, a slight laugh behind his words. The creature tilted his head, ears moving. "I'm looking for a great warrior." Luke continued.

"Ah!" The creature moved closer to to the young man. "A great warrior, hmm." He began to laugh again. "Wars not make one great." He said as he continued moving. He picked up something out of Luke's tin.

"Put that down." Luke stood up. The creature began nibbling on it. "Hey! That's my dinner!" Luke said in a whiny tone as he snatched his food away from the strange life form.

"How you get so big eating food of this kind?" The creature asked, coughing.

Choosing to ignore his comment, Luke ranted off, "Listen, friend, we didn't mean to land in that puddle, and we could get our ship out we would. But we can't," Luke tossed the piece of food away. "So why don't you just-"

"Aw, cannot get your ship out." The creature said almost mockingly as he began to snoop around Luke's items, while Luke was beginning to wish he'd brought another human with him.

"Hey, get out of there. You could've broken this." Luke said as he took items away from... whatever the thing was. The creature began throwing Luke's things around. "Don't do that." Luke complained.

The creature let out a laugh of satisfaction when he found Luke's flashlight.

Luke groaned. "You're making a mess." He said quietly looking around. He missed his friends. He missed Greyson.

Leia ran around the corner of the ship as Han, Greyson, and C3PO were all bickering. "There's something out there!" The princess said, panic evident in her voice. Han looked at her. Greyson had to hold back from laughing at how stupid he looked with the goggles on his face.

"Where?" He asked.

"Outside, in the cave." Leia said, and a loud banging followed, wiping the smug smile off of Greyson's face.

"I'm going out there, Greyson come on." Han declared.

"W-what?" Greyson's eyes went wide and she laughed nervously. "What happened to not wanting to put me in harm's way?"

"Are you crazy?" Leia asked

"I just got this bucket back together, I'm not going to let something tear it apart," Han said as he ran around the ship. Han tossed one of the breathing masks to Greyson as she slowly followed him. Leia ran after them, grabbing a mask of her own.

"Then I'm going with you!" She said.
