SWE/TESB:Leia in the cave

From Create Your Own Story

< SWE

Asteroid cave, outside the Millennium Falcon.

You grab a rebreather and race out of the main hatch. Han and the others are still busy working on the ship, so they won't notice you've gone. You unholster your DDC Defender blaster pistol and step out onto the cave floor.

The ground sure feels strange, you think. It doesn't feel like rock. Dismissing it for now, you raise your blaster, casting about for signs of the flying creature.

"Well," you say to yourself, "at least there's only one of them."

A moment passes.

You shriek as a swarm of bat-creatures fly out of the darkness and swoop past you, leathery wings beating the top of your head as they go by. You fire wildly, and the cave shakes, catching you off-balance and sending your pistol skittering away. You land on your ass, the flying creatures circling overhead. One detaches from the pack and swoops, passing low enough to touch you with its wingtip. You wave your arms to shoo it, but two more dive, and you feel a slimy sucker brush against the back of your hand.

You try to move, but suddenly the creatures are upon you, fluttering down from the ceiling to pin you with their broad wings.

"Han! Chewie!" you call, but you are too far from the ship. The bat-creatures scrabble all over your prone body, their suckers clamping onto your flightsuit and exposed skin like a vaccuum hose. You wince at the touch of the slimy suckers, but are unable to stop them.
