List’s are just something that’s made to make people feel bad about themself’s. Because if your name isn’t on the list, how bad would you feel?
I would feel pretty, pretty bad! But I can’t allow that to drain me of my joy, or to keep me from focusing on what really is important.
And if that list dosen’t have my name on it, it isn’t that important, because it simply dosen’t involve me.

Realm of The lost:
«Thou never catch me alive! Or…» she felt the spears against her back, «now that I think about it…» looking up at the guards that surrounded her with weapons rised, «I much rather prefer alive.»
…
Zilla was sitting in the mayor’s office now. The mayor of the town, that happened to be Asaj Ventress, looked directly at her and said,
«Your pain is real, my child. The pain you feel. The one about your dearest ones.»
Zilla sat on the other side of the desk, her head down,
«I’m glad to hear it isn’t just something in my head. Because I couldn’t bear to hold it all inside…»
Ventress reached out her hand, laying it over Zilla’s on the table,
«You can trust me…» a little smile, «I’m your friend.»
Zilla sighed,
«Glad to know someone sees me.» meeting The Mayor’s eyes, «I came to their door, but they just pushed my away.» sniffing, «And my sister looked right trough me, like she didn’t even knew me.»
«I know this is hard for you, with this new identities,» Ventress said in a serious tone, «But this is how it would be from now on, and I hope you can understand that.»
Zilla moved her hand away from the table,
«I actually don’t!» she said sharply, «I don’t understand how you could rip everything away from me! Leaving me all alone! I don’t want to be some homeless cat on the street! I want you to fix this, make everything right again! Like it should be.»
Ventress slowly rose up from the table,
«This curse…» she said walking over to the other side of the desk, «It was a reason I cast it.» sighing, «I simply wanted more power. Power over everyone. And now I have it.»
«Your bastard!» Zilla shouted, «I’m all alone now because of you!» rising up, «I tecnically been on my own my whole life, and you just made it a lot worse!»
A sheeply smile crept up upon Ventress lips, and she slowly clapped her hands together.
Clap… clap… clap…
Slowly. To mock her.
«It seems like you have turned out pretty well?»
Zilla stared at her, angrily, before her eyes moved to the ceiling, «Maybe…» trying calm down, «But I want Anakin back, and I want my sister. So could you please just make them remember who they are? And return their menories?»
Ventress clicked her tounge,
«It’s not that simple, dearie. Trust me. They are Lars and Ahsla now, and they’re gonna stay that way. And It’s not like I have some magic in this town, I can’t do anything.»
«Then I’m sorry to be wasting your time!» Zilla said sarcastically before turning on her heal.
Ventress just laughed,
«I might have something that could help» reaching for a box. «After all, you’re like a sister to me, and at least, I care about you.» she opened it and took out something that looked like…
«Where did you get that?» Zilla shouted and widened her eyes, because it was Anakins lightsaber.
Ventress chuckled,
«If Lars touches this… then maybe…only maybe. The memories will come back to him, and he will remember who he is.»
Zilla gasped,
«And you’re just gonna give it to me for free?»
«Oh my sweet!» She chuckled again, «Of course not!» laying it back inside the box, «You have to do something for me first.»
«What is it, then? Because I do anything.»
Ventress placed the box down on the shelf, were she had found it,
«Oh, what they say when they are desperate…» she mumbled to herself, «I got a job for you, and only if you do it right, you will earn the lightsaber. But if not, you can thank yourself, because then, we are done!»
«Okay. What do you want me to do?» Zilla said nervously
«She that diner over there?» Ventress asked as she pointed out the window, «You go make sure you are working there by noon, and then, I’ll give you what you so desire.»
Zilla wrinkled her brow,
«You want me to work in an actual job? For real?»
The Mayor smiled,
«Just mention that you have the favor of the mayor.» she handed her some piece of paper, «But don’t forget to give them this.»
Zilla took a quick glance at it,
«Is this some sort of contract?»
«Go now, my child.» Ventress said, showing her out the door, «And don’t mess it up.»
