Chapter 8 – A Hero Falls
One by one they climbed out into a long abandoned, dusty hallway brushing muck and slime off them as much as they could.
'Oh well isn't this convenient,' Jordan mused as Han and Luke removed their stormtrooper armor keeping only the stormtrooper belts and blasters.
Han rolled his eyes, 'If we can just avoid anymore female advice we ought to be able to get out of here,' Han said holding a blaster out for Luke.
Luke took it, scratching his head, 'We'll let's get moving!'
Chewbacca started howling as a tentacle, much like the one that had grabbed Luke earlier in the garbage masher, was slowly creeping its way into the hallway in search of his lost meal of sexy Tatooine farm boy. He howled and moved away to stand by some boxes near the end of the hall.
'Where ya going?' Han asked watching him go. 'Ah,' Han waved him off and raised his blaster to fire.
'No! Wait they'll hear!' Leia yelled trying to stop him but it was too late, again, Han had already fired at it causing a loud echo through the hall. Leia turned her head with a look on her face like 'How'd I get stuck with this Nerf Herder'
Han turned back to Chewie, 'Come here you big coward,'
Chewie shook his head (No!)
'Chewie, come here!' Han demanded, but the wookiee wasn't moving
Jordan smiled and patted Chewie on his forearm, 'It's okay Chewie, it's dead, it won't come any further' she said reassuringly to the wookiee.
Leia turned back to glare at Han, 'Listen, I don't know who you are, or where you came from but from now on you do as I tell you, 'kay?'
Han turned to look at Luke and Jordan with a 'can you believe this chick?,' look.
Luke simply turned the other way trying not to smile. Jordan smirked as Han turned back to look at Leia in disbelief as she started to walk off, Han followed her, with Luke and Jordan bringing up the rear.
'Look your worshipfulness, let's get one thing straight I take orders from just one person, me!'
'Hmm, it's a wonder you're still alive,' said Leia walking along side Chewie, 'Will somebody get this big walking carpet out of my way!' she said before stomping past him.
'No reward is worth this!' Han followed sighing. Luke wasn't sure what to think, Leia was definitely unlike any princess he'd ever heard about. Jordan on the other hand couldn't stop grinning amusedly.
They continued their walk going unnoticed and undetected by Imperial fools; they stopped in front of a large bay window overlooking the Falcon.
'There she is,' Han said proudly, while Luke pulled out his comlink,
'See-Threepio do you copy?' asked Luke into the comlink
C-3PO's voice was heard over the comlink, 'For the moment, we're in the main hangar across from the ship.
'We're right above you stand by,' Luke said then put the comlink up.
Leia turned and put a hand on Han's arm and pointed out the bay window to the Falcon, 'You came in that thing?' she asked. 'You're braver than I thought.'
'Nice, come on!' Han said giving her a slight dirty look then turned and lead them around a corner, right into the path of about 6 stormtroopers or so, both groups froze.
'It's them! Blast them!' One of the stormtroopers said.
Han fired his gun knocking the nearest one down, dead as the other troopers turned to retreat.
'Get back to the ship!' Han yelled to Luke and Leia running after the troopers brandishing his blaster. Chewbacca howled and followed him stepping over the fallen trooper.
'Where are you going?' Luke yelled after Han.
Jordan turned to Luke and Leia, 'Be careful,' she said before following after Han as well stopping to nick the blaster off the fallen trooper, kicking him and then rounding the corner after Chewie and Han.
Han yelled running after the retreating troopers Jordan hot on his heels. They rounded a corner and Han's look faltered as he was face to face with a room full of at least 50 troopers. Jordan stopped next to him wide eyed.
'Time to go,' she said before firing at one of the many troopers then turning to run back the way they came.
Han fired a shot as well and turned to go after his sister both of them dodging blaster fire and firing back behind him at whatever he could. Chewie howled and ran next to them as they passed by him in the hallway. They continued running and firing behind them, knocking down half of the troopers that were after them, leaving only five chasing after the three.
'Close the Blast doors!' one of the troopers yelled in hopes the blast doors would shut in enough time to trap the Trio of Smuggler's. Han and Jordan both turned around and fired at them while Chewie went through the closing doors first, Han closely followed then Jordan who stopped to give the stormtroopers a mock salute as the doors shut.
'Open the Blast Doors! Open the Blast doors!' one of the troopers yelled as they grumbled sourly for missing them.
Jordan laughed looking to her brother, 'Did you see how many we shot down?'
'Didn't I tell you not to get cocky?' Han warned his sister, but he did have a smile on his face, looking almost proud. 'You did good kid.'
Jordan beamed at her big brother, 'You did too.'
Han grinned putting an arm around her in a quick side hug as they shared their little moment before hearing movement on the blast door., 'Time to go.' Han said before the three took off running again.
They rounded a few more corners without any trouble and leaned against a wall surveying the ship in the hangar in front of them, trying to catch their breath and waiting for Luke and Princess Leia to catch up, hopefully.
'Didn't we just leave this party?' Han said seeing a bunch of storm troopers still around the ship.
Chewie barked a reply as Jordan was too out of breath to say anything except laugh a little as Luke and Leia ran up to them.
'What kept you?' asked Han.
'We uh. ran into some old friends,' Leia said sarcastically
'Is the ship alright?,' asked Luke.
'She seems okay, if we can get to her,' said Jordan.
'Just hope that Old man got the tractor beam out of commission.' said Han.
They watched as the something caught the stormtroopers attention and they moved away from the Corellian Freighter.
'Look!' said Leia pointing to the retreating stormtroopers. Nearby the droids started coming out of their hiding spot and headed for the ship.
'Now's our chance, go!' Han ordered as they all followed the droids towards the ship.
Luke stopped upon seeing what had gotten the stormtroopers attention. 'Ben?' he said, seeing the wise old man battling with his lightsaber with the Evil Black Masked Darth Vader. Jordan stopped as well getting a strange feeling and stood a few feet behind Luke and Leia, Han and Chewie stopped at the Hatch of the Falcon to watch what was gathering everyone else's attention.
Ben looked towards Luke and Jordan, smiling a little then turned his attention back to Vader, shut his eyes and brought his lightsaber up out of defense. Time seemed to slow as Vader brought his lightsaber down on Ben cutting him in half, his robe falling to the floor, but no body was there.
'NO!' Luke yelled aghast starting to move to run to Ben.
'Luke, don't!' Jordan grabbed his arm to keep him from running to his death.
Luke's yell drew the attention of the storm troopers who rounded on them and started firing upon them all.
R2-D2 beeped and hurried into the falcon with C-3PO closely behind him. Chewbacca quickly followed so he could get the ship ready for take off. Han fired at the troopers knocking one down who toppled into a shaft below. Jordan lifted the blaster rifle from her side and fired at the troopers aiming at Luke to give him cover. In his anger Luke raised his blaster as well firing at the troopers shakily, not moving from where he stood.
'Come on!' yelled Han to his sister and Luke for them to get out of the line of fire and onto the ship.
'Luke come on!' yelled Leia, 'It's too late!'
Luke looked back at them realizing Leia was right and he couldn't save Ben no matter how much he wanted to.
'Blast the doors kid!' Han yelled seeing more troopers coming towards them through the hallway Vader was in.
Luke aimed and fired hitting the control panel so the Blast doors shut, blocking Vader and More troopers from coming after them, Han and Leia retreated into the ship after the wookiee and the droids while Luke stayed put determined to kill every trooper in the hangar. Jordan stayed at his side, partly because of her own naivety, and partly because she felt strange, and angry about Ben dying as well.
A voice echoed through the hangar that sounded and like Ben's 'Run Luke Run!'
Luke didn't need to be told twice and dropped the blaster and ran for the hatch of the falcon grabbing Jordan's arm and pulling her with him.
Han raced into the cockpit where Chewbacca was already sitting.
'I Hope that old man got the tractor beam out of commission or this is gonna be a real short trip, Okay Hit it!' Han said.
Chewie did as he was told and the ship moved backwards in reverse and out of the hangar, turning around and speeding away from the Death Star.
And With that, concludes the Chapter 8 Redo of Life as a Smuggler's Sister. If anyone's reading, give me your thoughts on the edits? I'd love to know what you think and I luv you all –Jordi Solo Skywalker

Star Wars A Hero Falls
(Redirected from Battle of the Heroes)
Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is the film score to the 2005 film of the same name released by Sony Classical on May 3, 2005, more than two weeks before the film's release. The music was composed and conducted by John Williams, and performed by the London Symphony Orchestra and London Voices. The score was Williams' sixth score in the saga. Shawn Murphy recorded the score. Ramiro Belgardt and Kenneth Wannberg served as music editors; Wannberg served as music editor for the previous Star Wars scores. A remastered version of the soundtrack was released by Walt Disney Records on May 4, 2018.[1]
A music video titled A Hero Falls was created for the film's theme, 'Battle of the Heroes', featuring footage from the film. In the U.K., 'Battle of the Heroes' was released as a CD-single and reached No. 25 in the UK Singles Chart in June 2005.[2]
The soundtrack also came with a collectors' DVD, Star Wars: A Musical Journey, that features 16 music videos set to remastered selections of music from all six film scores, set chronologically through the saga.
This album was chosen as one of Amazon.com's Top 100 Editor's Picks of 2005.[3]
Overview[edit]
The musical score for Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, the Star Wars saga's sixth installment, was recorded over five days at Abbey Road Studio with the London Symphony Orchestra and London Voices starting on February 3, 2005, with one morning allocated specifically for vocal recording.
'Battle of the Heroes'[edit]
'Battle of the Heroes' is the theme for the climactic duel between Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi, written upon the request of George Lucas.[4] Lucas wanted a piece that would function as a tragic version of 'Duel of the Fates' in the film's final fight scenes.
The concert suite begins with a soft and tense ostinato by the violas in tremolo. Stopped horns join in to present an initial statement of the theme, immediately followed by pulsing beats with mezzopianodouble basses and cellos. The ostinato builds as the harp and trombones make their entrance. Suddenly, the horns, 1st violins, and choir play the theme at a louder dynamic level. The ostinato still plays beneath it all. Twice, the theme is interrupted by brief flurries of chaotic 'action music'. At a key moment, the 'Force Theme' makes a forceful entrance in a minor key. After the piece's main theme is heard several more times, 'Battle of the Heroes' culminates in a fortissimotutti of repeated D minor chords. This false ending is followed by the viola ostinato again. Solo flute, oboe, English horn, clarinet, and horn in unison deliver a melancholic interpretation of the theme's third over the ostinato, which slowly dies away before landing on the tonic. The timpani rumble as the entire orchestra crescendos into a final D minor chord.
The theme is played during the climactic duel between Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi; during use, Palpatine and Yoda also duel. At the beginning of the battle, a cue titled 'Heroes Collide' ('Anakin vs. Obi-Wan' on the original soundtrack) is heard. This cue juxtaposes fast-paced variations of 'Battle of the Heroes' with the 'Clash of Lightsabers' cue from The Empire Strikes Back. Later in the duel, fragments of the theme return twice in a cue titled 'The Boys Continue'. (This cue is not heard on the original soundtrack, although both of its 'Battle of the Heroes' variations can be heard in various video games.) After 'The Boys Continue' (and a short, quiet cue titled 'Rev. Yoda to Exile'), a cue simply titled 'Revenge of the Sith' plays as Anakin and Obi-Wan exchange blows on a river of lava. This is basically a re-recording of the concert suite on the soundtrack album, but without the extended opening and ending. There are also a few minor differences in the orchestration, and the rhythm of the final tutti chords is different.
The music videoA Hero Falls has been featured on DVD and StarWars.com. Set to 'Battle of the Heroes', it contains video clips from Episode III (with dialogue and sound effects). The music video can be found on the Star Wars: A Musical Journey DVD, included with the Episode III soundtrack album, as well as on the Episode III – Revenge of the Sith DVD.
In the UK, the theme was put on general release as a CD single and reached No. 25 on the UK Singles Chart in June 2005.[2]
Reception[edit]
The musical score for Revenge of the Sith has received generally positive reviews. Rob Theakston of AllMusic said, 'Revenge of the Sith holds a place on the mantle with some of the classic scores that made Williams a legendary film composer. It's also a fine closing masterpiece to a series of movies filled with some of the most important musical moments in modern cinematic history.'[5] Danny Graydon of Empire called it 'a triumphant climax to a modern music masterpiece.' Specifically pointing out 'Battle of the Heroes' and 'Anakin's Dark Deeds', Graydon said, 'The operatic finale of this score emboldens the tragic, doom-laden atmosphere of the saga’s pivotal moment, yet is typically brisk and exciting, deftly utilising themes from the entire series.'[7]
Film music scholar Royal Brown was less enthusiastic about the music and its relation to the overall film series, saying, 'By the time we get to Revenge of the Sith it's not as fresh as it was. Not because Williams is doing anything wrong, but because he's pretty much locked into a particular requirement for this particular kind of movie.'[12]Filmtracks.com provided a similar consensus in its editorial review describing that when 'compared to its peers, Revenge of the Sith is, despite its great strengths in its individual cues of immense melodrama, the weakest of the six scores when compared amongst each other.'[8] Morag Reavley of BBC Music said that the soundtrack 'strikes back with all the familiar notes. They just don't sound quite as startling any more.'[13]
Track listing[edit]
All music composed by John Williams.
For those interested in listening to the tracks in order of which they play in the movie, this is the order:1, 7, 13, 2, 6, 5, 8, 4, 11, 10, 9, 3, 12, 14, 15.
Star Wars: A Musical Journey[edit]
Star Wars: A Musical Journey is a bonus DVD included with the soundtrack album. The DVD, which runs just over an hour long, contains a collection of music video clips from the Star Wars film series set to selected themes from Williams' scores. Each clip features an optional introduction by actor Ian McDiarmid, and the music has been remastered in Dolby 5.1surround sound.[14] This program served as the foundation for Star Wars: In Concert, almost containing an identical soundtrack.
Star Wars: A Musical Journey contains the following chapters. Each video consists of clips from the movies that seemingly fit the music score composed by Williams:

STAR A Hero Falls Chapter IV final chapter A Hero Falls Marice kept on killing and now by the 10th day of the attack all surrounding towers has fallen to rubble. Only one left in the middle. Marice made sure it would be the last to go. Hiroshomi's body still lay in the council chamber. He decided just as the tower started to fall he would kill himself with his old jedi lightsaber in the middle of the council chamber floor. He knew what he was doing was wrong and there couldn't possibly be forgiveness except in death. He fought and killed thousands of jedi and younglings. He knew by now Hiroshomi had become one with the force. He would get forgiveness in death and would be remembered in the archives, if any survived. Now Darth Muealous until the end of this battle. He will be forever known as Jedi Master Marice Kelta. The battle came to a closing point and Marice used his original yellow lightsaber and stabbed himself through the heart in the council chambers. The final tower came crashing to the ground and the old Jedi were thought to be forever lost. The jedi who survive heard their masters through the force though. They remembered their training that for every jedi killed 2 more arise. Thus the temple was rebuilt after the dark times and a new beginning came for the Jedi. Thanks for reading!
