Its the night before Sithmas and all through the clan, not a creature is stirring, not even a Porg. Everything is nice and quiet as you tuck yourself in. You stare at your bright sithmas tree with a smile as you go to sleep.

You awaken to a noise in your room, and as you open your eyes, a single Porg is staring you in the face while standing on your chest. Leaping from the bed, you arm yourself and look around for the creature but to no avail. You hear a familiar squark of the Porg behind you and as you look you see a bucket fall from a rope on the ceiling and whack you in the face. Dazed, you see the Porg wander out of your room and into your clan headquarters at large.

You throw on a robe and go after it, finding that it has booby-trapped the hallways and various rooms throughout the clan headquarters. Every time you start to get close to it, another trap is sprung that puts you several steps behind. Now you’re getting angry, though the force seems to have no effect on it (If you are force sensitive). And the Porg is ever so slightly faster, and more cunning, than you are.

In 500 words or more, detail the misadventures you have as you try and catch the porg and what kinds of crafty traps it has awaiting for you. Ultimately, will you succeed? Or will the porg get the better of you in front of everyone else?
