Deathstar runs off bat energy."},"content":{"rendered":"<p>I was going on vacation with faily and a friend or two. \u00a0we ere borrowowing someones&#8217;s little laine glider and were going to fly u to washington. \u00a0we started off kind of late and didn&#8217;t get to tying to take off until dark already from mom and dad&#8217;s back yard. \u00a0once we got up in the air we flew around a bit but we couldn&#8217;t get a good liftoff or see much in all the rain and woods. \u00a0we eventually landed so we could camp overnight and landed up on a tall mountain \u00a0the ain and snow was cold but we could&#8217;nt get outside to make a real tent up so we sort of suffered inside the tiny plane for the night. \u00a0i remember looking outside and discovering that we must&#8217;ve just been flying in a cercile since we were practically still at the house. \u00a0i could see the driveway even. \u00a0the next morning dad started trying to make a little runway goingdown the hill, but it was turning too sharp and i nkew it wouldn&#8217;t be enough to get us liftoff. \u00a0we instead started exploring alternative ideas and came across a huge bat maze thing in the snow. \u00a0basically huge towers of snow that the abts lived beneath, and we had to jump from tip to tip to get across them. \u00a0they were confusing so not going in circles again was a problem, and it was frezing out. \u00a0at one point ome other hikers came down not knowing what they were donig and landed on one of usknocking them down into the bat cave area. \u00a0i figured he had died but after carefully sliding down after him we found it was&#8217;t too deep, just gross and filled with noxious fumes. \u00a0we crawled out as quickly aspossible out the side and started orking our way back up diferently. \u00a0the side of the bat aze had a huge jellyfish looking entenna thing directing energy into a big dome that also looked like a jellyfish. \u00a0we started researching it to see how the power was getting transferred around antd tring to think of what it couldbe. \u00a0we decided to kill all the bats overnight by jumping in awth a huge blanket of water down the middel as the bats then formed around and tried to suffocate us. the water and huge blanket helped protect us until they thought we were dead, and then we started swinging it around and clobbering them all. \u00a0then we went back to studying their energy stuff. \u00a0while we were doing that darth vader came down and me away. \u00a0apparently i was luke and he wanted to battle me or something.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>the death star was hovering directly above the bat&#8217;s energy thing and taking power from it. \u00a0the station was basically its onwn planet and i was left to fend for myself. \u00a0i met some kids along the way that followed me around trying te help me and eventually found myself in a huge sports arena thing for many different thing. \u00a0it seemed empty but as we walked around and talked eventually other kids made \u00a0themselves known. \u00a0the first i met in a classroom and he had gold bands around his elbows. \u00a0similar to the gold bands i saw on a clasroom whiteboard. \u00a0i asked if he was trained in gravity ad scienc and he shrugged and sad he was trained in osccer. \u00a0he grabbed a ball and kicked it at me hard, but i dodged it. \u00a0he wasn&#8217;t overly agressive but i could tell what his purpose was. \u00a0he started following me as i walked elsewhere in the arena.<\/p>\n<p>i then came across a large padded wall with climbing area inside it. \u00a0some kid pnched the wall down and i was challenged to climbing against him. \u00a0i showed off a bit and noticed there was some math stuff involved. \u00a0i pointed out it all added up to zero, and the kid knew nothing about what zero even meant. \u00a0he did some spiderwalk inside out crawling spot to the top and i quickly flipped up the sides of the structure to beat him. \u00a0there was also a hockey kid and anoter one or two that enedd up follwing around . \u00a0the kids that i was with and i realized we&#8217;d have to fight them to get out of here, so we tried thinking of the best was to do that. \u00a0we also noticed that the temperature and pressure were getting ingcredibly high in the arena. \u00a0if we didn&#8217;t fight them soon we wouldn&#8217;t have the energy for it. \u00a0we led them to a corner that hadn&#8217;t gotten too hogt oryet and managed to incapacitate them at least briefly as i iscaped a windown. \u00a0The climbing guy chased me up the wall and started climbing similar to how my father had tught me. \u00a0i asked where he learned about it and it seems darth vader had stolen it for his own training courses. \u00a0i tsarted throwing bottles down the wall to slow him down and then hid outside the window using elven camoflage, blending wit the trees while standing on \u00a0a branceh. \u00a0he came out the same way, invisible, but i could see where he was as he ran around aimlessly looking for me. \u00a0i eventually grabbed him and started beating him into the ground. \u00a0he wouldn&#8217;t give up fighting and i just choked him harder and harder as the others all climbed out the window. \u00a0They told him to give up and let me just go and eventually he complied. \u00a0the other boys and i ran off<\/p>\n<p>later i ended up facing darth vader himself by the climbing rig. \u00a0i mentioned how noone knew what zero was and he changed his little trophy counter mentioning noone has found out about zero and changed it to a 1, and handed me a special ring. \u00a0he started talking about giving the ring to family as wed both earned them not for ourselves but for them. \u00a0he was being a pretty decent guy and nice to talk with. \u00a0he decided he&#8217;d let me go and when i thanked him for the chat and went to shake his handhe unclasped his bracelet and lobbbed it to me, walking out the room. \u00a0i followed slowly but couldn&#8217;t get out the door. \u00a0he locked me in behind.<\/p>\n<p>the two kids i was with slipped under some trapdoor thing and rushed outside to help vader. \u00a0they were double crossing me and helping him into his tiny little floating car to escape as he whined at them sarcastically about their poor help while eating pistachios. \u00a0i don&#8217;t remember anything after that apart from his pointing out how much he hates when people allow me to get so close to him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was going on vacation with faily and a friend or two.
