What?! That was my honest reaction as I sifted through my latest Holos. I took a brief look out the closest window— no Supreme Leader Snoke bobble heads anywhere in sight. I had to take a brief moment to take in what I had just read (and also to make sure my eyes were working properly).
It turns out that this Holo was from one of the many citizens in our galaxy. I’ll admit that I am not the best at giving advice for situations like this, but perhaps you can offer some clarity to this situation. Here’s the Holo:
“I am in peril. Peril, I tell you! Why, you might ask? All because of that Supreme Leader Snoke bobble head! Yes, I mean the Sith leader from way back in the day, but in bobble head form. Honestly, it was quite the collectible. Until now. My older sister was the one who first gifted me the little trinket, claiming it would look good on my shelves. I must admit, it really did give my rather dismal bookshelves a little more life. For the most part, things seemed to be going just fine, until the Supreme Leader Snoke figure vanished off my shelf.”
“Naturally, I was confused. Where could it have gone? Most would only touch the books on the shelves, not the bobble head sitting at the very top. I was confused and a little concerned. However, I had to hold my search off as life was determined to continue with or without my Supreme Leader Snoke bobble head. Although it took a few hours of distraction, I was able to push the problem of my lost trinket to the back of my mind as I continued my day on. Until lunch hour.”
“I was hungry and decided to make myself a quick meal before I left for my afternoon job. As I was bringing out some ingredients for a quick salad and soup, I felt an eerie feeling that I was being watched. I quickly dismissed the thought and tried to resume my activities, until I reached for a box of crackers to go with my soup. Sitting beside the cracker box was my lost Supreme Leader Snoke bobble head, staring at me with a rather blank expression. Things were not making sense. How was this possible? I live alone! I returned the bobble head to the shelf and tried to go about my day.
“But it kept on showing up. I found it sitting under my chair before I left for work. I caught it staring out from my bathroom cabinet as I brushed my teeth. It even appeared at my work, comfortably seated on my desk! What is going on here? Do you have any advice?!”
I was a little on edge after reading that Holo and cannot think up an explanation for any of this! I’m just as confused (and scared) as this poor citizen! I decided to leave my office to grab lunch with some colleagues, grabbing my cloak on the way out. As I was on route to lunch, I reached my hand into my pocket and felt something.
It was a Supreme Leader Snoke bobble head.
Whenever a ransom is mentioned, it means the promise of credits isn't too far behind, right?
So our winner of the topic theme this week is:
Ransom of the New Republic written by: Adaya Devereux, Tuesday Devereux, Simion Simeon, Alexandria Grayson, and Luke McCullough
A quote from it: "She wondered exactly how much she was going to get paid for kidnapping the Galatic Republic Ambassador, she assumed it would be a good sum."
