... and among other news: notorious gang leader, Gharr, was killed in
a car accident. Imperial officials refuse to comment; in Core Worlds
Frungy League, Xaazaqus team leads with a score of 256/A:1; Verpine
colony in Roche asteroid belt was attacked and wiped out by Rebel
terrorists before Imperial forces could provide help; famous gravball
star, Mitchum Grennel, was discovered in his speeder with...

chest. He falls down, and the holoscreen goes dark. A glowing red
Imperial logo appears on the screen, then crumbles and is replaced by
blue Rebellion logo.>

[ALLIANCE TO RESTORE THE REPUBLIC presents RA NEWS, the only
uncensored newsservice in the Core Worlds]

<A young woman in blast vest and blast helmet sits where the
presenter used to be. >
This is Aryonne Saal from Rebel Alliance News, reporting straight
from Coruscant. Hello. Some of you probably see me for the first
time, but this is the eight time I visit this studio. Now, in about
20 seconds, the Imperial Garrison 254 B will send its contingent of
Stormtroopers here...
<In the window behind her, there's a big explosion>
Right on time.
What was I talking about? Ah, yes. This time, I have to report on
another outrageous Imperial violation of civil rights. Due to
rumours on Verpine collaboration with Rebel Alliance, the Empire
dispatched a small fleet to "quarantine" the Verpines from Roche
asteroid belt, and also to destroy the Slayn and Korpil hives. Those
two hives were selected because they were an economical threat to
Kuat Drive Yards corporation, a corporation loyal to the Empire. Now,
they could only take away about 0,0001 % of KDY customers, but that
was enough. If not for the actions of a brave Rebel strike team, the
Slayn and Korpil hives would be utterly decimated. Thus, they were
forced by the Empire to join our Alliance to Restore the Republic and
leave Roche asteroid belt.
<She looks at her watch>
Ooops. I would love to stay and chat, but I have to go. Bye!
<She looks at the presenter, who has just regained consciousness>
Hello, Bart. How's your new secretary, that T'wilek girl.... Whoops.
I forgot your wife was not supposed to know. Bye, anyway...

<The holoscreen goes dark>




Trooper TH-431, free this man.
Where did they go?
Damn, it's a recording! They slipped away, again!
We'll never catch them now.
The audio's still on?!
<Blaster shot>

Of course, this is not entirely true.
