The crew of the CR90 Corvette Silent Scream has been tasked with a simple mission: Transport Dark Jedi messengers to the Cocytus system. However, before the corvette can navigate safely out of Deep Core space and undertake a safe hyperspace jump all the way to the Palatinae system, they are beset by a deadly foe: Pirates of a Hutt cartel, packing heavy firepower and intent to board and pillage the ship.
If not a crew member of the Silent Scream, you are one of the Dark Jedi acting as an envoy of Plagueis to the Cocytus System. Write a fiction explaining the events, focusing on the characters aboard the ship and the events that take place. Most of all, show us the odds against you as the well-armed and numerous pirates bear down upon you.
Remember that Plagueis is shrouded in secrecy, and that we cannot allow an entity such as a Hutt cartel to know of our existence. You may be forced to reveal yourself, and if you are, none can be allowed to tell the tale.
Fiction, five page minimum
