a moisture farm

"Finally!" Leia sighed as she looked through the lens of her macrobinocular's as she spied the large imposing brown form of the jawa's monolithic sandcrawler transport vehicle which was parked outside a seemingly unassuming moisture farm. A small hut sat near the farm's moisture vaporator's. It seemed even small unassuming moisture farm's were deemed worthy enough for the massive jawa sandcrawler to stop outside for the jawa to sell what they could scavenge up.

Leia was thankful for the vaporator nearby that she could hide behind as she looked through her macrobinocular's and contemplated on how to get back R2-D2 and if possible C-3PO as well. It seemed that the jawa's had indeed reassembled the two droid's as Leia looked through her macrobinocular's she could see R2-D2 and C-3PO fully functional once again and being lined up alongside the sandcrawler among many other droids.

Leia watched as an older gentlemen with grey hair and stubble was currently talking with her golden protocol droid, C-3PO. The other person Leia saw did gain her attention rather quickly, a young man who by the looks of him looked to be a teenager roughly the same age as she herself was; nighteen with short blonde hair and wearing simple commoner peasant garb that most farmer's wore along with a simple leather belt around his waist containing what she guessed was a canteen of water, something she could kill for right now. She had to admit, he was rather cute. The Princess started entertaining some rather naughty thoughts in her head before she shook her head roughly to banish them. She needed to get R2-D2 back and ensure the **** Star plans were still safe, her carnal thoughts would just have to wait.

The young man was examining each of the droids the jawa's had troted out in front of the sandcrawler whilst the older male alongside him spoke rather brusquely with C-3PO.

"What I really need is a droid that understands the binary language of moisture vaporator's" Leia heard the older man say to C-3PO as she listened in, C-3PO and R2-D2 were safe but now came the question of how to get them back?

"Vaporators?" C-3PO exclaimed "sir, my first job was programming binary load lifter's. Very similar to your vaporator's in most respects"

Leia simply watched the exchange between C-3PO and the grey-haired man ensuring to stay as well hidden behind the current vaporator she was hiding behind as she could.

"Can you speak Bocce" the silver-haired man asked bluntly

"Of coarse I can, sir. It's like a second language to me" Leia heard C-3PO boast proudly.

"Yeah, all right shut up. I'll take this one" the silver-haired man said rudely as he motioned to one of the nearby jawa trader's before calling over the young blonde haired man, giving Leia a name to her piece of eye-candy; Luke. "Take these two over to the garage, will you? I want them cleaned up before dinner"

"But I was going to Tosche Station to pick up some power converter's" Leia heard the one known as Luke protest.

"You can waste time with your freinds when your chores are done" the silver-haired man said strictly. Nothing more needed to be said as the blonde sighed and relented. Leia had to admit, she was honestly expecting him to put up more of a fight against such a thing at his age. Leia guessed it did show that the young man had a certain level of responsibility which was certainly an admirable trait.

"And the red one. Come on" Leia heard Luke say to the astromech droid alongside R2 which made her thankful for. C-3PO wasn't as valuable as the little astromech droid was so Leia could let C-3PO go and she could concentrate on rescuing R2 from the jawa's and ensure the **** Star plans remained safe.

Leia watched as R2 shuffled forward in an attempt to follow C-3PO and let out a protesting series of noises. R2 didn't get very far before one of the jawa's pointed a metal rod at the astromech droid and activated it causing R2 to shut down temporarily.

Suddenly the red and white astromech droid that the silver-haired man had purchased burst to pieces and began smoking before coming to a complete stop causing Luke to turn around.

"Uncle Owen!" Leia heard the young man shout out finally giving Leia a name to the grey-haired man who turned towards the young man "this R2 unit has a bad motivator. Look" Luke said pointing to the now defunct astromech droid.

Leia watched as Uncle Owen began angrily arguing with the jawa he had almost given the credit's for both droid's to.

Leia watched as R2-D2 began shuffling in place making a series of noises to catch the attention of the two human's, now active once again.

Leia saw C-3PO point at the valuable astromec droid as he conversed with the young blonde man.

"Please dont" Leia muttered under her breath as she saw C-3PO pointing at R2-D2

"Uncle Owen! what about that one!?" Leia heard Luke shout as he pointed to the **** Star plan holding astromech droid causing Leia to beg for Uncle Owen to not be able to afford the droid. If R2-D2 was indeed bought then Leia knew she would have to resort to theft in order to get R2-D2 and the **** Star plans back to Yavin 4.

"Damn!" Leia cursed under her breath as R2-D2 trundled along towards C-3PO and Luke.

Now this was an unfortunate turn of events.
