At the site of Wiley Jack Malla walking towards us, I couldn't help but smile. This sure was the night for reunions. But this wasn't the time to basque in the old times- after all, I've still got my hands bound together and a cold metal gun pressed hard against my back.
Wiley Jack sees us, and I know he recognizes me by the way his eyes widened slightly as he passed, but he still walked casually by, not changing his pace. The droid didn't notice this- after all, eyes widening is indicative of an emotional personality trait, something not understood by droids very well at all...
The droid, thinking he's catching Wiley off guard, reaches out and takes his activator card.
"What are you doing?" Wiley Jack shouts.
"Borrowing your vehicle," the droid replies, turning away from me. I take advantage of the moment and duck away from the gun, round-kicking the arm of the droid, making it lose aim. The droid turns to me, re-aiming, and Wiley shoves him from behind, grabbing his activator card in the process. As the droid falls forward, I grab the gun, but am unable to hold it well as my hands are still bound.
It is then that I see about 10 other droids like this one in the distance, coming closer.
"Run!" I shout to Wiley as he grabs the gun. We take off towards his speeder, the droid, now unarmed, following close behind, his buddies, armed, coming closer.
We make our way into the speeder and Wiley inserts the activator card, but the engine doesn't turn.
"Go!" I hollar.
"What the-" Wiley Jack replies. I turn around, eyeing the droid, who is now standing on the back of the speeder, a second activator card in hand.
"Looking for this?"
