Study of Imperial Moff Krakoo Kaas, Kuat Sector under imperial control.

Imperial Moff Krakoo Kaas : Koko, do you know were the hell is Raint ! You were supposed to provide some oversight !

Koko : Raint is onboard the Rampage, giving chase to some separatist ship.

IMKK : He was supposed to continue to train himself. Control, this is Moff Krakoo Kaas. Contact the Rampage and ask for immediate report !

Control : Rampage reporting in, Your Excellency.

IMKK : And what does it report ?

Control : In for the kill, Your Excellency.

IMKK : Rhaaa, he will turn a true follower of the way of the psychopath ! Koko, I wonder if you’re a suitable example for this young man !

Koko : May I remind you that you created my software, your Moffness…

IMKK : Hogwash ! The Gemini software is perfect and allow you to choose your own personnality ! Control, I need a direct comlink with Raint Damahd.

Control : The Rampage just jumped into hyperspace, com jammed, Your Excellency

IMKK : Restore the com as soon as possible !

Control : Copy that.

***

Control : Call established, Your Excellency, you’re talking.

IMKK : Raint, How do you do, my boy !

Raint : Hi, Master, I noticed some troubles with my lightsaber.

Pit Droid : That’s no excuse !

SCHHLAAAAK

IMKK : You’re training ! Good ! Very Good ! What did you notice ?

Raint : It is somehow resisting me, as if the balancing was impaired. It’s like the laser blade had some… inertia ?

IMKK : No, Raint, this is not a hardware issue. The cristal inside the lightsaber is resisting you. We have to build a new one especially for you.

Raint : A new one ?

IMKK : Yeah, of course. To be simple, when a jedi build is own lightsaber, this is with a cristal which chose him. The jedi act in harmony with the cristal inside the lightsaber, he is driven by the cristal. This is a total nonsense for a darksider. A darkside user impose its will to the cristal, not the opposite ! And the cristal inside your lightsaber is clearly attuned to the light side.

Raint : Understood. That’s why this lightsaber was angering me with this unsteadyness.

IMKK : Raint, I have some news for you. We have a new leader for the empire, a new emperor !

Raint : WHAT ! What is this all about ! We were suppose to rule ! Not to be ruled, Master !

IMKK : Calm down Raint, this is a real chance for us, he will soon be crowned !

Raint : A CHANCE ! CROWNED ! DAMN AND BLAST IT ! WHAT THE HELL IS THAT CRAP !

Speaker : The target prepare another jump, we are ready to follow, stand by…

Raint : MEUAAAAARG !

Speaker : 3… 2…

Speaker : 1… Jump

GZZZZHT SLAAASHHHH CRUSHHHH SCHLAAAAK SWOOOOSH

Speaker : Jump aborted… we're drifting… incorrect parallax… all technical teams emergency stations ! Com jammed.

Repair Droid : Lightning and Lightsaber strikes on the hyperdrive 3 was probably not a good idea in the middle of a jump, if you want my opini…

SWOOOSKKK

Repair Droid : My bad. A droid of silence is a droid of sense…

***

Control : All com and contact lost with Rampage, damage in-flight probably. Rescue mission launched.

IMKK : By gum !

C&C welcome as usual.

That was just for the timing, but I finally got enough time.

Dear @Professor Thaum, I beg your pardon for my dumb question, but... where are the photos stored? I don't see them... If I knew where they are, I could use some special trick to have a look at them.
