Annikin climbs into the seat beside his father and removes his breath mask and
goggles. There are tears in his eyes. Father and son look out across the
wasteland towards Deak's grave. The thunderous clap of an explosion is
followed by a small mushroom cloud rising out of the depression. Annikin
throws a container down in a fit of rage.
ANNIKIN:
How many more of them are there? I want to finish it, once and for all! I'm
sick of running...when will it stop?
Annikin's father waits silently until his son's tirade is finished. Annikin
sits silently for a few moments.
ANNIKIN (con't)
I'm sorry.
KANE:
Son, plot a course for Aquilae.
Annikin lights up like a Bantha at feeding time.
ANNIKIN:
Aquilae!! You mean we're going home?
KANE:
We both need a rest.
Kane pulls back on the throttle, and the powerful spaceship lifts off the
surface of the Fourth Moon of Utapau.
A title card appears over a sea of billowing clouds on the gaseous planet of
Alderaan:
Alderaan:
Capital of the New Galactic Empire.The towering white oxide clouds pass, revealing the Imperial city of Alderaan.
The magnificent domed and gleaming city is perched, mushroom-like, on a tall
spire, which disappears deep into the misty surface of the planet. The
peacefulness of this nebulous idyll is broken by the increasing wail of ion
engines. Four sleek stardestroyers, from the Imperial Third Fleet, burst
from one of the huge cumulus range. The craft are flying in a tight formation
as they bank steeply, and head toward the Imperial capital of the galaxy.
7. INTERIOR OF STARDESTROYER - ALDERAAN
Stardestroyers are two-man spacecraft crammed with sophisticated electronic
weaponry. The pilot and gunnery officers sit side-by-side, surrounded by
lighted readouts and switches. They wear the gleaming black uniforms of the
Empire.
PILOT:
Tok-One to chicks: Shape it up. Let's make it good.
CHICK-ONE
PILOT:
Use your face shield, Chick-One.
The pilot is cold and professional as he maneuvers his craft closer to the
others. The positions of the ships are displayed on a readout, along with a
graphic representation of the city. The pilot gives the gunner a quick look
before he flips his sunshield over his eyes.
PILOT:
Here we go. Count: three, two, one, now!
8. REVIEW STAND - PLAZA OF THE DADERS - ALDERAAN
On a huge, austere platform stands the dark Cos Dashit, Lord of Alderaan,
Consul to the Supreme Tribunal, and ruler of the Galactic Empire. He is a
thin, grey-looking man, with an evil mustache which hangs limply over his
insipid lip. Standing at rigid attention on his right are several generals,
dressed in the black and grey uniform of the realm. Five members of the
Supreme Tribunal sit off to the side. On the emperor's left stands Crispin
Hoedaack, newly appointed Governor of the Aquilaean Systems, a young,
treacherous man with stone-cut, angular features and piercing grey eyes.
