CHAPTER NINE
a caring nature10 BBY, Lars Homestead
Great Chott Salt Flat, Tatooine
As the dawn breaks in the horizon of the seemingly quiet rocky planet, underneath the reticent morning lies that sudden distress and chaos in the Lars Homestead.
He watches his aunt and uncle gathering riffles and blaster guns in their workshop, preparing for something that he doesn't understand. It's indeed typical to see them being rough and ready for Jabba's henchmen but the thick tension in the homestead is different. Suffocating and overwhelming —— anxiety lingers in the atmosphere of his humble abode.
The young boy is said to be fearless. At the early age of five, the boy caught a womp rat by its tail and as he turned seven, the boy can shoot womp rats from their homestead when he tries to fix the vaporators with his Uncle Owen. He secretly flies the skyhopper during his eighth birthday and Owen feels he's about to faint when he knows that the boy can fly a ship. From the words of his wife, there's no doubt that the defying and adventurous spirit of Luke Skywalker is from his father.
He's always said as a boy without fear, as his very bones would shake the clay of Tatooine.
But now, his bravery diminished to what's going on in their home. It seems that his parental figures are preparing for something big —— probably more heinous than Jabba the Hutt and the Tusken Raiders. Above the sky, he can feel the darkness enveloping the homestead. Almost like a dark force coming to them like a Krayt Dragon is about to devour them through its claws and gnash them through its teeth.
