TRUE'S 1st POV (@star.wars.dude aka Starwars_Dude )
True was beyond confused, but that went without saying. He'd never met James or Saydee in person and had wanted to do so one day. But this wasn't exactly what he'd had in mind. He wondered if they were the only ones here (if they even were here and this wasn't all some trippy dream) or if other Star Wars account owners had been transported to this...this place as well. He had never seen anything like it. So dark. The air so thin. Giant rocks with almost alien formations. He didn't know where on Earth they were, in a quite literal sense. And now he was exhausted, huddled behind a rock next to James and Saydee, looking face to face at an Imperial probe droid. The situation was not ideal.
     That voice though...he knew he remembered that voice... Hmm...high-pitched voice, German accent...wait....
     True's thoughts were cut off when the ground suddenly started to shake. "Uhh, guys??" True yelled. "What's happening?"
"How would I know?" James and Saydee said. A huge plume of dirt erupted over the rocky surface all around them, many kilometers away from them, until it appeared they were in the center of a humongous circle of land, probably a mile in diameter. The ground shook again, and now started to sink.
"Move!" yelled James. "Move!" But the probe droid darted in front of them before they could get three feet away. The droid responded with a metallic voice of its own this time.
"NO NOT DEVIATE FROM YOUR CURRENT POSITION."
"Those—those things can talk??" True asked James.
"No! But... I don't know," James said, utterly confused by everything that was and had been transpiring.
"James! True!" Saydee pointed. "Look!"
As the circular ground they stood on sunk lower beneath the surface, which was now above and out of sight, a light shown straight ahead, and then to the side, and then to the other side. It grew brighter, and creeped over each and every varying shape of rock that surrounded them until they realized that they had just descended into an impossibly large room, flooded with lights that took long to adjust to. When the gigantic piece of land the three stood on reached the bottom with a thundering thud, a silhouette appeared over the horizon, flying in through the huge installation and over the rocky mass. And then they saw him. There, 30 feet in the air on some kind of hovering device, stood the man who had originally spoken through the probe droid.

"Ahhhhh, velcome, velcome, velcome, my new lab rats. Vat brings you all to a desolate rock like zis?"

True's eyes were wide with disbelief, which melted into anger. Dr. Nuvo Vindi.
