There are no sounds apart from the rapid blasts whistling eerily through ozone-filled air. The fight became an intuitive choreography in which each party followed with grim dedication. As they walked past a live war zone, Han eyes the many life-forms Tenshin considers his students. He’s never heard of the Tenno, but it reminds him of the old tales he’d heard back on Corellia as a boy. Tales of old where men and women and life-forms of all kind posses an untamed power—Jedi, was what his eldest sister had called them. Wiped out long ago, they haven’t returned, and likely wouldn’t. Even that old man he’d met back on Tatooine—and that kid—they hadn’t been anything special upon first glance. No, they aren’t. They aren’t like them, Han reiterates …show more content…
Han isn’t sure what Tenshin considers a lengthy trek, but it sure as hell isn’t what Han first imagined. What he once thought was a swift jog to a ship waiting nearby has been the exact opposite. So far, they’ve walked a few klicks, more than what his body ever anticipated, and he can’t seem to draw in enough air for his shriveling lungs. The atmosphere is humid, thick and underlined by a sharp burn that sears down his throat with every succession. It labors movement, adding lead to his normally smooth stride, yet the two that’ve walk on ahead seem unaffected by the befouled environment. This new section of forest retains various chemical smells and a general air of neglect, but each time he pauses to listen, only the hum fading salvo is heard. Han curses when his foot plunges deep into a puddle of reflective water shining colorful hues. He stumbles back, then gasps at the fiery prickle riding up his leg. ❝Agh—kest! What the hell’s this? How come this planet ‘s falling apart, huh? What’s this place, some kinda abandoned, backwater planet? Shavit… this stings.❞ Like a vapor wasp’s bite. Worst of its kind on Corellia, the males mature enough to produce a venom strong enough to capsize anything it

The search for the new Han Solo continues, but it looks like Disney and Lucasfilm might already have a favorite on who could possibly take over Harrison Ford’s iconic Star Wars role. Although the studios have already narrowed down their list to only three contenders, there have been reports that Hail, Caesar! actor Alden Ehrenreich is proving to be better than Taron Egerton and Jack Reynor at embodying the young Millennium Falcon captain!
The crunch of foliage under his boots was the only sound for miles, as the knight Siegfried marched through the woodlands on a lone patrol. His sword was sheathed and on his hip as he pushed aside bushes and low hanging branches. "Blasted nettles" he cursed as he pushed through a bush, relying on his steel armor to protect him. "Why do they even send us on patrol anyway?" He rambled to himself "Every evil thing that crawls, walks, slithers, swims or flies on this planet has been quiet."
it is life, Mama!” Mama: “Oh—so now its life. Money is life. Once upon a
It's always me seeing the last moments but this time it was more vivid. I always felt more guilty, but now that..." leia was speaking, then stopped suddenly and started sobbing again. cluching to Han. "leia, what's wrong, you can tell me" he said. "I'm a Monster" she sobbed out. Han was confused by what she said. "What do you mean by that" he asked, wondering why she said that. "My, Real FAther.. Anikiin" she said as her voice rose. Han knew her real father was Anikin Skywalker, but he was still confused. "didn't he die years ago, what dose he have to do with this" he
Unfortunately, Han Solo’s annoyed, muttered grumbles aren’t as loud as his boots. They’ve been clicking and clacking with every single step he’s taken. Each time the heel makes contact with the porcelain floors, Han violently struggles with the near animalistic urge to just throw himself onto the godsdamned polished floor and begin tearing at his clothing already. He hates his uniform. Wait, no. That isn’t right. According to his elder sister, it’s his born right to don vesture fit for a prince. Han doesn’t doubt that, he doesn’t at all mind that his sister wants to follow the old traditions, back when things were still run by old man Jonash — but that was before he was born, before even
Habit has Han slumping in his chair again. His legs stretched out and contradicted resilient muscle, scalding a cold burn that feels absolutely wonderful for how much they’ve been aching lately. Before Luke had invited him, he’d been gone on a run that went more than a little sour. Situations where he had to run for life, blaster shots zeroing in on their target — him, came in ample amounts. Maybe this is his due reward for the kind of life Han has so far lived. Perhaps those ancient goddesses of Corelli his older sister had told him stories of having something much better planned for him than a life of illegal spice smuggling. Although Han doubts it, by reason of the fact he rather enjoyed his thrilling adventures in spite of how life threatening
The concept of a man-machine mixture was widespread in science fiction before World War II. As early as 1843, Edgar Allan Poe described a man with extensive prostheses in the short story "The Man That Was Used Up". In 1911, Jean de la Hire introduced the Nyctalope, a science fiction hero who was perhaps the first literary cyborg, in Le Mystère des XV (later translated as The Nyctalope on Mars).[7][8][9] Edmond Hamilton presented space explorers with a mixture of organic and machine parts in his novel The Comet Doom in 1928. He later featured the talking, living brain of an old scientist, Simon Wright, floating around in a transparent case, in all the adventures of his famous hero, Captain Future. He uses the term explicitly in the 1962 short story, "After a Judgment Day," to describe the "mechanical analogs" called "Charlies," explaining that "[c]yborgs, they had been called from the first one in the 1960s...cybernetic organisms." In the short story "No Woman Born" in 1944, C. L. Moore wrote of Deirdre, a dancer, whose body was burned completely and whose brain was placed in a faceless but beautiful and supple mechanical body.
The smell of thickening, chalky smoke weaved it's way into the damaged lungs of the soldiers. The never-ending sense of nausea spiraled, slowly suffocating you. The smoke was a killer on the loose. Rotting corpse lie frozen in time, unaware of the standpoint. A pungent smell mixed with a drop of sickening sweetness compressed waiting for your last breath. Dead rats, squelching mud and the overall sense of darkness, combined forces and created a poisonous, overpowered hurricane of death-eaters. Inescapable stench of deep, rusted iron coiled in the form of khaki, overcast, flying phantoms. The whiff of grounded moss and oxidized metal chased us soaking up into our uniforms, weighing us down. Moss, blood, smoke, death, rain, all waiting for
Star Wars is one of those franchises that spans generations, and is beloved around the world. The sights and sounds of Star Wars has prevailed throughout the decades, whether as nostalgia, or to complain about the prequel trilogy. Star Wars has become ingrained in the part of society reserved for pop culture references, memes, and wasted money on official (and not so official) merchandise. Overall, every aspect, but particularly the sounds, of the Star Wars franchise is made to connect back to the original trilogy. Despite being spread across decades and multiple facets of the franchise, the familiar, continuing sounds of Star Wars is a way of retaining continuity, and nostalgia, as well as identifying characters and themes.
prehistoric animals, were being levitated by pulley rigs, reminiscent of a macabre ceremony requiring witch's incense.
Tort laws can be described as laws that provide a remedy to a person that has been harmed or injured by the unreasonable acts of another. Tort law plays a role in society that touches almost every single person. Tort law protects patients from wrongful acts by their physician, it provides a remedy when a company pollutes the water or air, it provides a remedy to consumers when they purchase a defective product, and it protects employees from employer negligence.
That next morning, I woke up with a map in my hand with red thumbtacks in it along all of the places Cassius was bound to hit. It seemed, for now, she was just trying to wipe out the U. S., but we had planned far enough ahead for global attractions we anticipated she'd be hitting.
On the way to work, I called Sterling and crossed my fingers that he'd answer. I couldn't wait to tell him about the things that granny had done this morning. This time I only let the phone ring four times before I hung up. I didn't know what was up with him, but I decided that I wasn't going to call him anymore today until he called me. As soon as I ended the call, I started to wonder about his whereabouts. That was until I pulled up to the daycare and saw his car parked there.
The tape started, “All I remember was running. Debris, blood, water, needles, and bodies lay on the floor as I ran. I hurdled a body as I sprinted down the hall towards what I thought was a right turn, but I was sadly mistaken. Like a mouse in a trap, I shook as I turned to the tidal wave filled with the same items and carcasses. I closed my eyes and accepted my fate as the wave rolled closer and got taller and taller. My eyes opened in shock as I heard the last toll of the bell, the locks to the doors of the house clicked, and the tidal wave evaporated as my own tidal wave of relief and freedom rolled through me. I walked out the door, tired, dirty, and scarred for life. The walk to the police station was easy compared to what I endured.
