Moff Panaka Returns to Theed

[Moff Panaka]

"Ahhhhh, it's good to be back. " says Moff Panaka as he takes a step off of his shuttle and breathes in the fresh Naboobian air. "It does Panaka's Naboobian heart good to be at Panaka's home again." But, of course, Moff Panaka's return to Naboo isn't all about reminiscing and reliving the good times. "The Good Times..." muses Panaka... "Before the Rebellion... before Ric Olie." Panaka means, of course, not the good times before he knew the Traitor Olie, but the good times before they became mortal enemies and ended up on differing sides of a galaxy wide war and also a galaxy wide beauty contest.

In fact, it is this reason Panaka has returned to Naboo. Panaka hasn't returned to his homeland as much as to Ric Olie's homeland. To search for clues that might put Panaka back on Olie's trail. Ric Olie, of course, discovered and tutored Anakin Skywalker and indirectly caused the death of beloved Emperor Palpatine, the former Naboobian Senator. For this, Panaka has returned to Naboo to make The Traitor Olie pay! But Panaka must be careful! In the 25-or-so years since Panaka last set foot on Naboo, much has changed. Though the Imperial Remnant still controls Naboo, Panaka's rank of Moff may not endear him to the locals or even the people he once knew.

*THUNK* Panaka slides his head (but not his shoulders, in the Corellian fashion) briskly to the right as a rock impacts on the surface of his shuttle.

Alas, is it the famed smuggler turned rebel turned statesman, Han Solo, who has cast this rock at Panaka's ship? "Oh no you didn't!" says Panaka as he hops over the guardrail next to his shuttle and starts pushing up his moff sleeves. "You may not be Olie, but Panaka's gonna put you in a world of hurt! Panaka needs the practice anyways!" says Panaka in his best Mr. T/Karl Malone impression. But Panaka knows not to rough him up too much. Even though former Naboobian Senator Palpatine didn't consider Han Solo a "prize" and considered his life forfeit, his presence here on Naboo surely is suspect. True, he could just be visiting his mother-in-law, but last Panaka knew, she was a dead as Olie's hairpiece. This could be the lead he was looking for! Solo ran, and turned to fire back at Panaka, just like he did on the Death Star I. His shot went wild and Panaka was on him in two more steps. Panaka lifted Han Solo by the scruff of his smuggler vest. Suddenly, Panaka's shirt was ripped and his bulging biceps could be seen... bulging as he lifted the Corellian in the air. "Talk!" says Panaka.

*THUNK* Another rock, possibly thrown by another Olie confederate... but this time Panaka's lightning reflexes were subdued by his intense focus on Han Solo. Unable to do the Corellian-bob, the rock strikes Panaka directly on the side of Panaka's head. Panaka drops Solo to the ground to turn to face his attacker. (Now his gleaming six pack is also visible. Man, no wonder Ric Olie lost the Handsome Naboo Devil contest all of those years ago! And, no doubt, Panaka's still got it!)
