Obi-Wan kicked at the severed limbs that continued to crawl after him into the docking port tube. Chup-Chup was already seated in the back of the Headhunter. Obi-Wan jumped into the front seat and dropped the canopy.

“Why didn’t you start the Headhunter’s engine?” Obi-Wan asked, trying to keep his voice calm. “The freighter’s going to explode in less than thirty seconds.”

“But you didn’t ask me to start the engine,” Chup-Chup whimpered. “Besides, I’m not old enough to fly a starship.”

A desperate pounding came from the starboard airlock on the other side of the cargo hold. The circular airlock hatch was built into the thick plastoid wall. Airlocks were used to help spacers reacclimate to different environments, but in the wrong hands, the pressurized cabin could also be a death chamber.

Obi-Wan ran to the airlock. He peered through a bubble-shaped transparisteel viewport that offered a distorted view of the pressurized cabin’s interior.

He saw the Talz, weirdly magnified through the bubble-shaped viewport. The hair-covered alien appeared taller than Obi-Wan had envisioned. The young creature was gasping for air and hammering his hairy fists against the walls.

Qui-Gon Jinn belted himself into the front passenger seat of the landspeeder while Obi-Wan Kenobi slid behind the controls.
