Full Force (Battlestar Galactica/Star Wars)

“This isn't the pilot you're looking for.” A hooded figure slowly swiped his hand in front of Six's face.

“ This isn't the pilot we're looking for.” Six nodded, a slightly glazed expression on her face.

“She can go about her business.” The stranger repeated the gesture.

“You can go about your business.” Six repeated parrot fashion, the detachment of Centurions she was commanding looking at her slightly oddly, but following her every command.

“Move along.” The man spoke for a third time.

“Move along!” Six gestured them away as she turned and continued down the desert track, “Move along now.”

The Centurions antecedently followed her, and soon they were lost in the heat-haze.

“What the frak was that?” Starbuck asked, surprised to find herself still breathing and not riddled with bullet holes.

“The Force can have a strong influence on the weak-minded.” The stranger pulled down his hod to reveal a man in his late thirties to early forties, a beard and moustache covering much of his face, while his hair brown hair was starting to go grey around the edges. He was dressed in simple brown robes, perfect for the desolate conditions and scotching heat of the desert. “My name is Ben Kenobi, but I have to ask, what brings strangers from so far away to this half forgotten corner of the galaxy?”

“That's what I was about to ask you.” Starbuck to a step back to put some distance between herself and the stranger, “I was flying my Viper through a storm, chasing a Heavy Raider, then everything goes white and I wake up on this gods forsaken planet with no flue and no way to way to contact the Galactica!”

“Much confusion I sence about you, but you speak the truth, as you know it.” Kenobi nodded thoughtfully, “Come, my house isn't far from here, and the desert is not a place for one as inappropriately dressed as yourself.” He started off back the way he had come, away from the rout taken by the Cylons, “I have some time until I am needed here, so I might be able to help a lost traveller return home...”
