===Opening Crawl===
A long time ago... in a galaxy far, far away.
THE REBIRTH OF THE JEDI
Three years have past since the infamous EMPIRE, headed by DARTH VADER and EMPEROR PALPATINE, fell at the hands of supposed last JEDI, LUKE SKYWALKER. In the meantime, LUKE has been gathering up children who are strong in THE FORCE to train them to be the new JEDI ORDER. However, in this quest, LUKE has become distant from the allies who helped him defeat the EMPIRE.
One of these allies, his own sister LEIA ORGANA, has taken it upon herself to help the galaxy heal after the EMPIRE's wrath, rebuilding the fallen GALACTIC REPUBLIC with herself elected as it's new CHANCELLOR. Meanwhile, her husband, the former smuggler HAN SOLO, is working to build planets that were harmed by the EMPIRE's attacks back up while hunting down the remaining members of the EMPIRE who have survived LUKE's attack...
===Plot===
Chancellor Leia Organa stands before the Galactic Republic, consisting of the leaders of many alien races, including the leaders of the Ithorians, Talz, and Devaronians. Leia adjusts a microphone-like device before resting her hands beside it, looking determined at the Republic.
* Leia Organa: "From what I have been told you all have issues with my brother."
The moment Leia speaks, everyone in thee crowd begins screaming at Leia. Leia holds her hand up and silences the crowd.
* Leia Organa: "I am more than willing to help with your issues but please speak one at a time."
* Devaronian Leader: "Fine, then let me sum up our problems with one sentence: your brother is stealing our children!"
* Leia Organa: "Your children are volunteering to go with him..."
* Ithorian Leader: "He is coming to our homes and demanded us to give him our children!"
* Leia Organa: "He is giving your children a choice whether they want to come with him or not!"
* Ithorian Leader: "He is drafting child soldiers!"
* Talz Leader: "SCREEEECH!!"
The crowd begins yelling at Leia again. Leia puts her head in her hands before hitting the microphone-like device, creating a loud noise that shuts the crowd up.
* Leia Organa: "I don't want to do this but if another outbreak like that happens I will kick the perpetrators out. Now... I more than understand your concerns. You don't want your children to be taken away from you. But you have to know that this is for the greater good."
* Devaronian Leader: "Vader thought he was fighting for the greater good, too..."
* Leia Organa: "I'm not done talking. This is all for the greater good. My brother is training your children in The Force so they can become the next generation of Jedi. Padawans living close to their Jedi Master is needed. Otherwise the Jedi Master will have to constantly hop across the universe to train their Padawan. My brother is already a very busy man with his constant training in The Force and his searching for children strong in it so he needs all the time he can get to train your children."
* Talz Leader: "[Unintelligible]"
* Leia Organa: "Excuse me? I'm sorry, but can someone translate him?"
* Ithorian Leader: "He is saying Skywalker stole his children from him. He wants to know when he can get them back."
* Leia Organa: "You see, I... I won't lie to you. It will be years before you get them back."
* Devaronian Leader: "You're only telling us this now, you harlot!?"
* Leia Organa: "It's not what you think."
* Ithorian Leader: "How is it not what we think!?"
* Leia Organa: "IF YOU SHUT UP FOR A MOMENT, I'LL EXPLAIN!"
The crowd, which was once filled with mumbles and gossip goes completely silent at Leia's uncharacteristic anger. Realizing this, Leia sighs and attempts to regain her composure.
* Leia Organa: "Padawan training often takes years. If he sent them back as a Jedi Knight without proper training, they without a doubt would die. Him taking your children for training is not unlike an academy. Just on a much grander level. You can visit your children as much as you want, you can even choose to move closer to them. But Luke must train them properly. And, I assure you, they all went with him willingly. If any of them rejected Luke and chose not to be a Jedi, he would leave them be. You don't have to be happy about it but please try to understand."
The Republic says nothing. None of them are happy but they are unable to argue.
* Leia Organa: "Does anyone have any other questions?"
The leader of the Mon Calamari raises his hand.
* Leia Organa: "Yes, you."
* Mon Calamari Leader: "My planet, Mon Cala, greatly suffered under the Empire's rule. We don't have much food and we don't have much resources. Our economy is slowly falling apart... Can you please help us?"
* Leia Organa: "No worries. I'll inform my husband of your plight. He'll deliver food and resources as soon as he can. Just remember, it could take some time. He's a very busy man..."
Meanwhile, Han is shown being a "busy man" as he fires a blaster at Stormtroopers whose army has rusted. They fire at him rapidly and he ducks behind a corner, where Lando Calrissian is hiding while holding a blaster of his own.
* Lando Calrissian: "This is insane! How is it possible that there're still Stormtroopers running around?!"
* Han Solo: "From my experience, they either don't know the Emperor's dead or don't care. On your right."
Lando runs to his right and shoots a Stormtrooper, killing him.
* Lando Calrissian: "You think we would have gotten the last of them by now. Their main base blew up twice, how did we not kill all of them with that?"
* Han Solo: "Easy, they were--"
* Lando Calrissian: "--Stationed on other planets, yeah, I know, it was a rhetorical question."
More will be added soon.
