Alem had came out of the ship to get a breath of fresh swamp air. Eyes falling on her heavybag she smiled sly on one side of her face when she met M-3PO investigating the ship. -M-3PO- "Alem! How are you!?!" Then shooting in fast -M-3PO- "Have any booze?" Handing the poor wretched thing a bottle of stout, which he accepted the guzzled , tossing the empty over shoulder, adding to the growing of sanitation issue on the lonely planet. The droid spoke -M-3PO-"Alem you might wish to attempt starting the ship." Without hesitation the woman shouted out -Alem- "Gid! Come here and give the ignition a hit!!!"

Inside the Firespray-31-class God was talking with her sister -Gid- "You know Shakk in my own humble opinion the Grey Jedi had a good point." Her sister answered -Shakk- "Uh huh." Gid continued enthusiastically -Gid- "Yes." She turning her attention to the planet that they were now on-Gid- "Just as I am convinced that The Survivor Was an outcast and was forced to hide in this desolate lonely rock" The sound of Alem grabbed their attention. Gid went and turned the ignition switch and the ship fired up

And at Alem's words Gid smiling wryly said "You wanna go for a ride?" At the words Shakk's eyes lit up up. Gid needing no other sign said and headed for the door with Shakk close behind. The two approached the beat up Firespray Firespray-31-class, The Hand Maid Tail. Gid rising up right hand smacked off the waiting mitt of her burly sister. M-3PO, Alem, Shakk and in the lead Gid piled into the old war horse. Sitting the pilot's seat hit several switches. Alem held her breath, holding tight to Shakk's left hand in her right. Now a philosophical debate exists as to whether creatures with artificial intelligence have feelings. I leave that question to the philosophers but In this moment of truth M-3PO's internal system was on the edge of overloading. Then Gid said in a slightly wavering voice "ll start this show...." And flipped the ignition switch and the engine roared as fire flew from the exhaust pipes below

And the engines trying created an evil hiss. And a voice loud and proud screamed -Gid- "Here goes nothing!" The best up Firespray Firespray-31-class patrol and attack craft lifted up from the swampy , and crept up into the Dagobah sky the shot off into what awaits

As they entered the planet's atmosphere Gid watched. She absolutely adored the jungle terrain below. Bringing the ship down very gently the woman cut the engine and dropping the hatch she stood -Gid- "And here we are. The Jubba bird required no invitation, flying out of the ship he soared high only to come down and sky on his favorite tree. Shakk instantly ran after the bird and watching her from behind Alem waved. Joining her muscular sister the two walked around just enjoying the beauty. M-3PO came lastly but stayed close to the ship Then the sudden realization hit Alem, no pun intended, that she had an 80 pound bag hanging from a tree here. Running like lightning to the tree, she began a halfhearted yet still enthusiastic run at the equipment, shelling off left jabs and straight rights Gid was suddenly touched by a feeling. Punched straight on the nose by a young Sony Liston was perhaps more accurate. She mumbled under her breath -Gid- <<Juvex>> Running to The Hand Maid Tail the latch popped open -Gid- "Mess around here! I'll be back. Running on board she practically dove into the drivers seat and started the ship. M-3PO just say still as the ship lifted off skyrocketing for orbit

Standing on the ground watching the ship descend were Alem and Shakk. They looked up as the vessel came closer and closer to them unflinching. Both girls were filled with worry, they were locked in non-stop dialogue about where to Gid was going and moreover why. But as the ship approached all that was hurled to the wind. The two just stood watching. Then the hanger door dropped open and a voice rang out -Gid- "Home guys! Brought a relative!" For both Alem and Shakk all anger dissipated, being overwhelmed with relief and happiness. And that flood of warm positive feelings was only enhanced when both sisters yelled in elation -Shakk and Alem- "Epona!!!"

The door dropped suddenly and the centuar started. Then Looking out at the wild tropics she felt as if her heart was in her mouth. It was breathtaking. Then her eye caught Alem and Shakk, her muscle-bound and certifiably insane siblings. And both of her pounding hearts(never got the anatomical part of this quite right). Where was I? Right! Both hearts were overwhelmed and spontaneously overloaded, She suffered a massive coronary and dropped dead on the spot. Thee End. Just kidding. Both hearts were indeed pounding like a drum. And these bodily phenomenon reflected a well deserved emotional surge within Epona's brain. She charged from the ship, fast yet careful not to get her self into a pace that she could not stop. Finally stopping but a foot before the girls she stood in her trademark pose with the horse half broadside and the human part looking out across the immaculate terrain -Epona-"It's... beautiful...." She was completely mesmerized by the state of the planet for some time. Then turning to face her sisters with a smile -Epona-"Hi girls."

Euphoria. The word fits the pure and unbridled explosion of emotion at the sudden coming together of two sisters with another. Add in Gid, who came walking from the ship straight into the passionate hugfest now in process and the jubilation only magnified. Meanwhile poor Oscar sat in a tree wondering if the affections that Shakk poured on him would be lost to the horse person thing. But this was short lived as he was pretty busy himself catching up on lost time with some of the other Jubba bird They talked a lot of history. And the talk was long and filled with moments of Utopic joy and others that descended into the depths of dispair. And the Twi'leck Three, Gid, Alem and Shakk, all had sore jaws that night. And they talked an old staple of the Dubh; politics. There things became much quieter and the speech slowed. Things were exactingly explained

Epona stood watching. As the others slept she stood watching. But she tired. Luckily, her stay apparatus kept her standing whilst dozing.... And dozed. And dozed. With a start Epona awoke rearing up on hind legs looking about her. Where in the name of Korriban was she? Settling down and standing on all fours again the centuar ambled slowly investigating her new surroundings

Laying still the Twi'leck Three were unmoved by Epona's movement. All except for Shakk. THe thin blue Twi'leck rising up from dreams deep looking around calmly spied her clothes. And her weapons. Pulling in short the pants She stole outside in bare feet. Trailing the centuar with ease Shakk stood watching. Then the impulse striking her she ran leaping on the centaur's back. Hand running soft down Epona 's spine -Shakk- "Easy..... It's just me honey...." Realizing that she was speaking to a sibling as if she were a beast of burden, (& we ain't talking the tune by the Stones), the Twi'leck made an offering -Shakk- "Beautiful here; let me show you around." And she sang a line of two from an golden oldie -Shakk- "Well I met 'im in a swamp down in Dagobah! !! Where it bubbles all the time like a giant carbonated soda!!!"

Epona was walking peacefully enjoying the Pacific environment offered by Dagobah she Shakk came crashing down on her back. The centuar near bucking the woman from back found the gentle hand on her back and sensitive words soothing. She walked gentle through the swampy terrain

As they moved along Shakk thought. A lot. Many things crisis crossed through head. Universal enigmas. Yes that turn of phrase worked, so she thought. But here. Now. In this place? Here she was miles away from greater issues and concerned about basic survival. Like how did Epona so effortlessly miss sink holes? She is - quite literally - as big as a horse. But here she was dancing through Dagobah like a ballerina. Shakk showed Epona the the picturesque scene. She bragged about the planet -Shakk- "Epona - you'll love it here." The girl felt compelled to add -Shakk- " we just must be environmentally conscious." And on the explored. The they came to a place' and the girl howled -Shakk- "Stop!" Then Looking down at Epona her mouth opened -Shakk- "It's a man's home.... And his grave."

The tour around a fairly wide area of Dagobah was pleasing. One needed to be careful though. Particularly with the knee. Epona had heard legends of that. She wondered what was it that the Old man said? Yes. -The Old man- "Epona! Watch your knees; break just one of them and off to the glue factory with you!'She knew that he wasn't serious. Shaking head she returned her undivided attention to the land - and water. And animals a aplenty. Then Shakk's terrified... And terrifying "STOP!" Halted the show. Cold. Then she stepped forward. One, two...

Stepping onto the open terrain of Dagobah proper Alem and God Gid. Gid. Not God. Gid might well believe herself the Supreme Being but she was not. Where were we now? Right! So, the Green and red Twi'lecks, now away from Yoda's Hutt, and the tiny area surrounding it, stood out in the open terrain of the planet. Looking about and catching sight of her blue sister Alem shouted -Alem- "Shakk! Get over here!" Meanwhile, whilst her sisters had been rambling with their relative, Shakk had been busily searching for wood to burn. There was a whole lot of dead-fall that she found, some fresh and green and some old and dry. She neatly piled them in two stacks: one green; one dry. One industrious little Twi'leck Shakk could be. She could see, in her mimd at least, how The Survivor must have loved it.... Stopping and scratching her head. He was probably an outlaw. Likely? No definitely. That was better. So.... He was an outlaw. Pretty short outlaw she had to admit, judging by the home he had made. Short of y'all she wished that she had had the honor of meeting him. Then the noise ring in her ears. She absolutely hated loudness. Particularly when it was her own name being said loudly -Shakk- "I'm coming...." And with that she went running to where the two other Twi'leck now stood

Oscar, the Jubba bird, sat perched high in a Gnarltree watching. He knew Dagobah. This bizarre, treacherous piece of land was where he was conceived, hatched and grew up. And somewhere in his head he understood: it was where he wished to lie down for the last time. But something immediate, which meant it was important, pulled him away from that deep thought. The girl. The blue girl. The blue girl food. And gave it to him. So he followed the sound. Right were they were before. Landing on her shoulder he sang These birds of Oscar's kind were legendary for the mesmerizing quality of their singing and the bird himself was no exception. Unless one accounted for just how beautiful his songs were. Needless to say, he fast reduced Alem to a giggling idiot. Half drunk with joy herself, Gid harshly said -Gid- "Knock it off!" To which, Shakk responded -Shakk- "Hey! Don't tell Oscar to shut up!" Now fired up, the red Twi'leck shot back -Gid- "Can't you see his gnarly music is making Alem stupid!?!" Thinking fast -Gid- "Well more stupid." Strangely that turn of phrase pulled Alem from her phonetic fantasy tour -Alem- "Who are you calling stupid?" Eyes rolling Gid came back at that -Gid- "Freeze on the tough talk or you'll be less another diget." All three girls burst out laughing . But Alem dropped any argument on the spot. On the other hand, Shakk forcefully declared "If you two can't dig his melodious voice we can go elsewhere." Eyes widening Alem noted -Alem- "Well that was abrupt." She began too carry on the point but Gid, throwing up right hand blocking any other speech said -Gid- "Soon as she gets hungry she'll be back." Alem merely nodded in agreement Shakk strolled through the dark set swamp aimlessly. But the girl never really did anything aimlessly. Her reasoning simply rarely made sense to others. So, Shakk, with Oscar on her shoulder strolled. And she investigated. And she learned Whilst Shakk was off investigating, her sisters reinforced her wood piles, adding two 5'x2" metal poles at either end, connected by 2 gauge wire -Gid- "Do you think that little snake will even notice this?" Laughing Alem answered -Alem- "Notice it? Oh she'll notice." Quiet for but a heartbeat she added -Alem- "She just won't acknowledge it." Past the laugh-fest they covered both piles with thick waterproof canvass

The Caves of Evil.... An ominous glow rises up from beneath the twisted root system of a Gnarltree. The Light drawing one close, only so that the Dark heart hidden within may consume them. A Tale of The Twi'leck Three....

Dagobah was a strange place. The swampy terrain that dominated the landscape of the planet blasted a rich abundance of flora and fauna, a element common in such physical environments. However, the notable absence of sentient beings among the life forms on Dagobah left a very simple question, namely: why? The answer is far simpler than many would expect, as this revolves on a spiritual as opposed to environmental reason. Plainly, the accented Darkness on the planet discouraged the growth of intelligent life. Perhaps nowhere on the planet are these Dark forces stronger than the Caves of Evil. In this bizarre nexus those brave, or foolish enough to trespass were subjected to projections of their deepest fears by means of vivid apparitions and illusions. The Caves of Evil sat waiting, beckoning to potential victims....

Now, enter into the scene described above, not one, not two but three potential victims, our most beloved, The Twi'leck Three. Am I laying it on pretty thick here? Well hold onto your seats, lest you slip and fall, for the sappiness will only increase.... Shakk, having taken Oscar and fled to avoid the typical petty bickering and inevitable violence amongst her sisters, was walking in the thick brush exploring when she noticed the ominous light. Where exactly she was when first encountering this phenomenon is insignificant in comparison to what this glow was. For it represented was pure Evil, dressed as sanctuary from the darkness surrounding the sisters. Indeed, the shining glow under a tree was inviting. Thus, the blue Twi'leck began walking towards Gnarltree. If not for Oscar fleeing with a strange warning cry the girl would have continued to venture further. Looking up Shakk caught sight of the bird sitting on a branch high above. And this faltering her advance backing away she called out -Shakk- "Oscar! Come here!" Returning to her shoulder the bird sat wearily. And the the girl began running, Looking back but once
Tearing through the dense bog Shakk can't tumbling out in front of her woodpiles. Standing and admiring the work that her sisters had done enforcing and weather proofing the stacks a smile grew on Sakk's face. And for a fleeting moment her off experience in the marsh dissipated -Shakk- "Hey! That's a nice job guys! Thanks!" It took but scarce seconds for the exhilaration to subside and reality to come crashing down. Frowning she added -Shakk- "Oh ya.... Their is definitely something out there.". From her initial abrupt appearance, the sister's just stood staring at their sibling. Both smiling at her initial reaction to their work were struck down by her foreboding declaration. The muscular green woman teeth baring -Alem- "Of course there's something out there!" Right hand sweeping out -Alem- "It's a swamp full of flies, frogs, freakin' fifty foot long snakes and who knows what!" But Gid cut Alem's censure short -Gid- "Tell us what you saw Shakk." And so she did. The two listened. A discussion ensued. Alem presented the fact that sightings of odd lights in swamps had been recorded for centuries in many places. Almost all of which were proven to have natural reasons behind them. The counter argument offered by Gid was that the word 'almost' being in there was not conclusive. Shakk herself capped that point by pointing out the fact that "Dagobah is anything but the norm." Nodding Alem stated flatly -Alem- "Let's go."

All three sisters, each gearing for a day hike began the journey towards the mysterious light that Shakk had noticed in her scouting and consequently informed Gid and Alem about. So they started out, the Jubba bird resting on the shoulder of Shakk. The trip to the site was uneventful. At least as uneventful as Dagobah can be. And the party was actually quite cheery, which was of course was quite welcome As they neared the place Shakk became suddenly quiet -Alem- "Shakk. Shakk. Wha...." Her question was cut by a chopping hand waved by Gid. Just ahead a strange glow emanated from the exposed entanglement of roots at the base of a mammoth gnarltree. The three came to a abrupt stop -Alem- "What is it?" A response came fast -Gid- "What we're here to find out." Both turned to Shakk as she coolly stated -Shakk- "Oscar was born here - and he's afraid of it." The Jubba bird was gone.... Yet when they turned back they noticed that the typical host of various insects were drawn to the light and plant life appeared to f!nourish around.... Around what was a massive entrance. So there they stood, The Twi'leck Three unaware that they now stood at the opening to The Cave of Evil.... And Shakk stepping forward, one step, two steps, three

The tiny foot of the blue Twi'leck set down inside The Cave of Evil and the diabolical game had begun. But the The Twi'leck Three always had each other.... That unity would be what....
