EXT. MOS EISLEY
As Ben and Kane zoom towards Mos Eisley, more Sand Skates appear behind them.
KANE
Looks like more trouble.
The bike heads into the street, startling several pedestrians. The Skates continue pursuit.
The boys turn down a side street. They turn sharply and knock over a droid wheeling a cart. The fallen cart sprouts legs and walks off the road.
KANE (con?d)
Go that way!
The bike races the docking bay. Ben hits a switch on the bike.
BEN
Artoo?
INT. DOCKING BAY 47
The Jaren?s Dream sits silently in the docking bay.
INT. JAREN?S DREAM ? LOUNGE
Artoo has a panel open in the lounge when he hears something calling from the cockpit.
BEN (O.S.)
Artoo pick up!
R2 warbles and heads into the cockpit. He activates a scomp link.
BEN (con?d)
Artoo get the ship fired up. We?ve got to get out of here.
Artoo chirps.
BEN (con?d)
And open the hanger bay. Take off as soon as we enter.
Artoo chirps in the affirmative.
EXT. MOS EISLEY STREETS
Ben and Kane head to the docking bay doors with the Skates behind them. One of the Coalition troopers takes a shot at them, the blaster bolt whizzing by Kane?s ear and hitting the wall.
INT. DOCKING BAY 47
The bike enters the docking bay, with the Skates behind it. They start to blast at the boys. Ben sees a sloping rock in front of the opening hanger bay door and aims the bike at it.
BEN
It?s going to be close.
He rides the bike up the rock, jumping it over the troops and into the bay.
INT. JAREN?S DREAM ? CARGO BAY
The bike skids to a stop. Ben and Kane tumble off of it.
KANE
Ben?
BEN
Yes?
KANE
Never do that again!
EXT. MOS EISLEY
The Jaren?s Dream begins to lift off. The Skates stop and a Coalition Trooper activates his comm link as the ship jets away.
EXT. SPACE ABOVE TATOOINE
The Jaren?s Dream heads into orbit just as several Coalition Scouts head towards them.
INT. JAREN?S DREAM ? COCKPIT
The boys rush into the cockpit and Ben takes the controls.
BEN
They must want us really bad.
The scouts begin to fire at the Dream. The ship?s communications dish explodes.
BEN (con?d)
We?ve got to jump to avoid them.
KANE
Where?
BEN
Anywhere for now ? we?ll worry about our course later.
Ben does a few small calculations and punches the ship to hyperspace.
WIPE
INT. EBONY BLADE ? CAPTURE BAY
Nyx is standing over Luke, who?s being locked into place. The Coalition Commander enters.
COALITION COMMANDER
I?m afraid we?ve lost them.
In a fit of rage Nyx throws the Commander into the ceiling then the wall with the Force. He collapses to the ground.
LUKE
You won?t get my sons that easily.
DARTH NYX
Gloat all you want Skywalker. We?re still sending you to Doom Keep.
