My alarm clock rings… this is odd… I thought I set it for the meeting… I slept all day!! NOOOO! What if it my last day alive and I just… slept through it…
I hurry to the meeting in my land speeder. The others are already there. They are disappointed to see me… obviously, the less there are, the more chances they have of gaining the prize. I look around. Indeed, someone else is missing. The host has just arrived but as he looks at the audience, someone steps forward.
“This can no longer stand this way! Siths have repeatedly been attacked by the Jedi at night! I demand a duel with Yoda in reparation of this treachery!”
“Ah… interesting! Well I guess Gorky could enjoy a little show before his fight. What say you Yoda?”
“Only faster the Jedi victory will be. Accept I do.”
Yoda prepares for his fight. He is ready. Facing his opponent, his posture suddenly changes from that of an old man to one full of agility. He jumps as a bolt of lightning, almost invisible because of his speed. The opponent doesn’t stand a chance, Yoda lands a blow, it is barely blocked. He jumps again, this time the blow disarms the opponent, clearly not a match for the great Jedi. A third jump, Yoda flies to victory. A large hand lands on his back and crushes him to the ground. Gorky apparently couldn’t enjoy the show, he wants to participate. When he removes his hand however, the Jedi is standing, his arms upwards blocking the hand that seems giant compared to him. That’s when he notices it. That’s when I notice it too. There is a red lightsaber through Yoda’s chest. His disarmed opponent used the confusion created by Gorky to get his weapon and strike at the little green man. Yoda expires and disappears. He is no more, only his clothes are left on the ground.
“Well well I see that Gorky is impatient and you had your vengence. Now who will fight Gorky tonight?”
It’s true, we have to find a challenger and since I woke up so late, I have less time for reflection… whom to choose?
TruckoSaurus aka Yoda of the Jedi Council is dead... and back as a spirit in the Force.
Day 5 Start – You have 24 hours until night, don’t be shy on your vote.
