With my re-imagining of the Star Wars story, I decided to start it off on Tatooine of course to make the fans happy. But, if you watch the first movie, Tatooine is rather boring and not much happens. It's much more interesting in Episode 6 with the fight at the Sarlacc pit. So, I decided to re-vamp the beginning of the Star Wars series by throwing us into the middle of a gang war between Jabba the Hutt and the Skywalker family.
Uncle Owen and his wife are gunned down by the merciless thug Boba Fett. It seems like Jabba the Hutt has the upper hand in the war over who can sell Kessel Spice on Tatooine. But, then, the young orphan that Boba Fett didn't notice, Luke Skywalker, wanders the desert in a depressed daze. He stumbles upon an empty house. Inside, he finds a lightsaber and hatches a plot for revenge.
Allowing himself to be captured by Jabba's men, Luke is taken to the Hutt king and told he will be fed to the Sarlacc pit. The next day at the Sarlacc Pit, Luke is about to be thrown over the barge and into the gaping maw of death when he suddenly ignites the lightsaber and frees himself from his shackles and then kills the guards around him. He starts making his way through the sail barge leaving a path of destruction behind him.
When he comes Jabba's quarters, he finds Boba Fett, sometimes known as Dasmos in other parts of the galaxy, guarding the front door. Luke confronts Boba and during the ensuing battle, Luke manages to hit Boba's jet pack with the lightsaber and send him rocketing away. Boba Fett almost ends up flying into the Sarlacc pit again but is somehow able to avoid death thanks to someone using the power of the Force and he is able to Rebound off the edge of the pit and end up away from the Sarlacc pit.
Boba Fett's jet pack, then broke off his back and flew erratically right back into the sail barge where it exploded and killed an unprepared Mace Windu, using the alias of Sessha. Although, he was just a regular alien or townie, Mace Windu had been working with the Jedi Council as part of a sting operation against Jabba the Hutt and was their inside man. His death throws their plans into disarray.
Meanwhile, Luke confronts a defenseless Jabba and get him to agree to leave him and his family alone as well as hand over the Kessel spice contracts to him. Luke then crashes the sail barge and heads home. Jabba ponders his next move after leaving the wreckage and heading to his palace.
Boba Fett meanwhile has made his way over to the Mos Eisly Spaceport. He arranges transport for a ship to take him off planet so he can upgrade his weaponry. After a few rounds, Boba Fett goes to find the pilot he hired and is ambushed by the Empire. It's a trap. The Empire try to kill Boba Fett but once again, Boba Fett is protected by the force and the lasers rebound away from him. In fact, one laser hits a wall and bounces back and kills an agent of the empire, Wandering or RX-24 as he was known in Mos Eisly. RX-24 was the chief agent of the empire or godfather if you will and even had the power of Force Manipulation but it did nothing for him in this case.
Not wanting to face death anymore, Boba Fett quickly hopes on a nearby ship called the Slave 1 and blasts off the planet.
Jabba, meanwhile, decides that he wants to hire a better gaurd than Boba Fett so he puts out a search to find the most notorious Bounty Hunter in the galaxy. After many offers, Jabba hears about a certain Bounty Hunter who singlehandly killed a man called Stevey. Now Stevey was just a normal alien or so it seemed. It turned out, Stevey was a Sith Lord who had a sector of planets under his sway. For a bounty hunter to be able to kill someone, that was a bounty hunter to seek out. So, Jabba sends out an offer for the bounty hunter's services.
Back at Mos Eisly, the Empire is angry at getting humiliated by Boba Fett and begin an investigation to find out what went wrong. During the interrogations and torturing, one man called Gengar or Crimm which was his alias at the time was shocked with Force Lightning and told to think about squealing or the next dose may be permanent. Yes, there was another powerful person in charge of the Empire now.
At this point, reports are getting back to Luke Skywalker that Boba Fett was seen in the vicinity of Yavin IV so he decides to head off in pursuit of Boba to finish his personal vendetta with him and punish him for his aunt and uncle's deaths.
