"Jessica's Big Droid".

[StormiLover]

Great job, very entertaining.
Stormi and I giggled the whole time we read the thread.

[OlmanOz]

Whoops.. I missed your earlier comment Scooter... Maybe "Bb" does stand for billiard ball..
All he needs now is a big white number 8 painted on his belly..

Thanks Mr H.. Yep here we go again... those damn imperial troopers...

Thanks for your kind comment StormiLover.. We can never laugh to much.. Glad you enjoyed it...

And some good news. My pre order that is over 2 months late has finally finished production and should be shipping soon..
So It won't be long before we are back in the outback to find out what happens with Jessica and the "cowboys"..
In the meantime, more coming soon from the "Tranquil star"....

[OlmanOz]

Jessica's big droid..
Chapter 13. Hunters, Part 3.. Thanks for coming...!

As the bounty hunters began to leave the bridge Vader gasping for air collapsed....

Is he dead.? asked Tarkin.
No sir, he just hyperventilated.. said the deck officer.

He will be fine once he gets his mask back on.. replied the first officer fanning
his hat over Vaders face.
So the old man has finally lost it.. whispered Cracdick. Perfect, it's a good
time to implement my other little plan...!

Round up the squad, bring two droids and follow me Sargent..
Yes sir..!
Lord Vader sir, wake up....

Later that day....

Is this the shuttle that goes to Rangers Space mall, this droid and I
need to get there in a hurry..?
Sure is.. That will cost you 299 Imperial credits...

20190518_233540.jpg (1.82 MiB) Viewed 966 times

What.. 299, that's a rip off...!
Well that's the price.. Besides I have not had a fair all day..
Well I don't have 299..

Do you have 299 credits r2-N3..?
Boowp..(No)..
Damn...!

20190518_234401.jpg (1.98 MiB) Viewed 966 times

Listen, this droid and I are on official business for Lord Vader.. He wants a new suit..
Yeah yeah, that's what they all say... You troopers are all the same, I don't believe you..
Grrr, it's true.. Aagh, I have malt whisky in my bag, I'll give you 50 credits and the bottle..
Black label..?
Yep, 100% genuine..
Now you're talking, Come aboard gents.. But I better get that bottle...!
Don't worry, you'll get it..

The shuttle took off and headed for the space mall....

But back on board The Tranquil star in the shadows of a secluded corridor, another
meeting was about to unfold....

Dark fall, it's a pleasure to have you aboard.. We can no longer rely
on Lord Vader to complete this operation.. And I don't have much faith
in his so called bounty hunters who have already failed us before..

20190518_215303.jpg (5.9 MiB) Viewed 966 times

No longer will I let anyone stand in my way of progress.. Help me retrieve our
droid and extinguish that woman and her friends.. For this you shall be richly
rewarded.. Vader and his colleagues have humiliated me for the last time.. We
will show them who should be in control of this battle station..!

It will be my pleasure director.. My pleasure...!
Good, good...!

What will become of Cracdick's desperate measure...
Is life on earth once again in jeopardy...
Will there be enough supply of tortilla chips to get Carly through this next week..?
Stay tuned, and hang on to your seats... Only time will tell...!

[LoneRanger]

Oh Oh..what's going on here? Why are we going to the SpaceMall? What is it, a taco Tuesday supply run?

Dart Maul...Now that is a cool character!! If anyone can get it done, he is the one who will!!

I think we are about to see some action soon!!

[carlys_guy]

damn carly just ran out to dig her laser cannon out and make sure it is fully charged and working. thanks for the new chapter ozzy.

carlys_guy

[hollows+fentiman]

Hmmm, Dirty Cracdick!

I wonder who that ‘trooper’ is?

Great chapter! Love the poses again!

[scooter_ca]

And you there, take a shuttle to the space mall. If I'm going to keep
wearing this damn suit then I want some new leathers.. "Gasssp"...!

YES!!! new leathers.
Vader needs to update his wardrobe.



Thanks,
scooter

[OlmanOz]

Dark fall may already be too late Mr Ranger...
Good to see Carly is still ready to give her all to defend the earth...
Hrmm, who is that trooper... I have no idea Mr Hollows...
Oh my, now that would be a sight to see Scooter, vader in bondage..


Jessica's big droid..
Chapter 13. Hunters, Part 4.. No answer...!

After a less than ideal meeting with bounty hunters Darth Vader had requested new leathers....

I'm telling you, he really did send me to the Spacemall.. Said if
he has to keep wearing that helmet he wants a whole new suit..!
Haah.. Thought the old man wanted to retire..?
So did I..

Right then.. Now, about that whisky.. You promised me a bottle...!
Sure.. I'll keep my word, you'll get it..
You better not be trying to trick me or I'll turn this shuttle right back
around, I want to see it now..

20190519_003007.jpg (4.6 MiB) Viewed 926 times

Sure, in fact go have a swig or two right now.. I'll keep an eye on
things up here.. It's on autopilot right, and I bet you're thirsty ..?
Are you sure..?
Yes.. Go go.. It's in my bag up the back..

Whooho.. Johnny black label, here I come...! cheered the pilot racing up the back.
My bags in the escape pod.. yelled the trooper from the cockpit..

20190519_125340.jpg (3.32 MiB) Viewed 926 times

Escape pod, why in here..?
Well after having to escape the Deadly star just before it blew up I'm
a little paranoid these days.. Hehe.. You just never know when you
need to leave in a hurry...
Oh yes, I remember when that thing blew up.. But I can't see your bag..?
In the compartment under the window..

Aaaaghh.. You dirty low down rotten crook... I'll get you for this...!
screamed the pilot, but no one could hear....

Hehehe, thought he'd never leave r2-N3.. Finally, I can take this damn helmet off..

There is no time to waste, We need to warn Jessica and k2 about the

Finn raced back to the cockpit....

We have no time to waste N3.. We need to get to the space mall ASAP..
If I use the comlink on this ship they'll be on to us for sure.. I know we
can reach Jessica from the mall, but keep trying that radio anyway..

But Finn knew nothing of Jessica's predicament in the desert..!

[LoneRanger]

Now we are talking!! Some real action on it's way!! Man I am glad I have a front row seat!!

Magnificent Entrance for Finn!!

Well Done as always!!

[carlys_guy]

oh no we need more pretzels or tortilla chips fast carly is chewing through them by the handful.
nice chapter ozzy.

carlys_guy
P.S. carly is mad at me she found out i disassembled her laser cannon to store it so now she needs to rebuild it.

[hollows+fentiman]

Great! It’s a shame Finn had to sacrifice that bottle though, he may need it when he gets to the Mall!

Well done mate, excellent photos as usual! My Finley suddenly sat up when he saw those photos!

[OlmanOz]

Thanks fellas.. I hope your all ready, coz something is brewing, might be just as well to reassemble that cannon Carly...


Jessica's big droid..
Chapter 13. Hunters, Part 5.. Solid ground...!

Once arriving at the space mall Finn replaced his helmet so he would not be
recognised and put on his best acting skills....

Oh thank goodness for solid ground.. "kiss kiss kiss"...
Trooper what are you doing on the floor, get a grip son...!

If it was not for the auto pilot landing this shuttle I'd be dead.. The
pilot bailed out mid-flight...
What do you mean he bailed out private..?

He started drinking whisky, I could not stop him sir..
Whisky, where did he get that from..?
I don't know sir..

20190524_202207.jpg (2.12 MiB) Viewed 880 times

Then he jumped into the escape pod, yelled "I'm joining the resistance"
and took off.. Left me and my droid to fend for ourselves..
Damn.. You poor sod, no wonder you're a mess...!

Finn stood up and grabbed his bag....

I need to go change in a hurry sir.. I um, erherm.. Messed my suit...!
Sure sure.. Leave this rouge pilot to us, we'll find that pod.. Can't have
you smelling up the place...!
Thank you sir, thank you..

Straight up that corridor son, I'll radio security and ask them to let you
through, priority one..
Much appreciated sir..
Shouldn't it be a priority "Number two" sir, hehehe... whispered the corporal.
I think you're right, haha.. and they both quietly chuckled.

Idiots.. Come on n3, let's find a room so I can ditch this suit, call earth

Why is it when my Security is portrayed on this thread, they are all idiots? Still working that one out with Personal in HR!

We have plenty of fine liqueurs and more exotic affair at our many fine restaurants!!

At least the place looks nice and clean! I'll have to recommend the janitorial staff for a job well done!!

Oh, and the story is moving along nicely..

[carlys_guy]

nice chapter ozzy i will tell carly to start fixing the cannon as soon as it stops raining long enough to go outside.

carlys_guy

[hollows+fentiman]

Very realistic photos and great storyline again!

I wonder how many Dicks there are on this Mall?
