C-3Po and R2-D2 watched as Rebel troops ran into the main corridor. They took up a defensive position near a sealed hatch.

C-3po turned to R2-D2. " We're doomed".

R2-D2 replied with whistles and beeps.

" There'll be no escape for the princess this time".

C-3po could hear strange noises coming from the ship's outer hall. " What's that?".

R2-D2 beeped.

Suddenly, the sealed hatch exploded. As the smoke cleared, an Imperial stormtrooper stepped through the hatch. Wearing a white helmet, he was cut down from Rebel return fire. A second stormtrooper came right behind him. He was cut down also as more stormtroopers poured into the corridor. Rebels began to retreat. C-3po and R2-D2 quickly exited the main corridor.

Then a tall caped figure walked out of the hatch into the corridor. He was dressed fully in black.
