Which idea is hotter?

A dumb crime Lord who against all odds gets lucky.

Or an intelligent gangster who manipulated the situation to fit him best.

What I mean is articles and blogs talking about the subject from outside of our community. I feel like it gives an insight into what mainstream society thinks of it and it's fascinating to me.

Some examples:

Basically the jist is that most authors (especially feminist ones) disagree on whether the outfit is a prime example of the "male gaze" in film, as it was definitely supposed to elicit an erotic moment directed towards the men in the audience. While on the other hand some see it as a sexual awakening for the character of Leia where she takes charge and kills her captor with the chain he used to enslave her.

In my opinion George Lucas kind of had his cake and ate it: Leia goes through the entire male fantasy element where she is captured and implied to be a sex slave, going through the whole BDSM slavery thing to a giant slug for the male audience to drool over, but she also gets to have her moment of strength and independence when she kills Jabba.

Your a crime lord in the Star Wars universe you have to assemble your very how harem what does it look like? How many women,what are they wearing,what are there roles/jobs?

(Warning this is my first time writing any fanfiction, would love any advice you may have)

Bela just couldn't help herself, all she had thought about for months was the score of a lifetime. Life wasn't easy as a street rat on Tatooine but with the right skill set, a girl could make a decent living. Tonight was the night, the Jabba the Hut was taking a little trip off the planet, leaving his ill-gotten gains all alone. He was practically asking for it and Bela wasn't back down even with the rumors of what the man was capable of. A shiver ran down her spine as she thought of the slave girls she had seen paraded around and none of them seemed to be around for that long.

She pushed that thought out of her head as she walked through a dimly lit tunnel that her contact had told her about, smugglers always had a way. She was dressed in a thick robe which would stop her dress from getting dirty as she climbed through the tunnel. Once she arrived at the access hatch and tossed the robe on the floor. The light from the corridor made her pale skin practically glow against the contrast of her jet-black dress. Even if she was seen she at least looked like she belonged here, Jabba liked delicate creatures around to look at.  

  The place was a ghost town with only a skeleton crew left to guard the place. The perks of being the biggest and baddest around was there wasn't a lot of people who were brave enough to try something like this. Before long she was at the steps to the throne room, where the Jabba would make-believe he was royalty looking down at those he saw as below him. The place felt so empty now though, curtains drawn which cut the size of the room by a lot, probably something Jabba would do from more private meetings or his servants would do when he was away Bela thought to herself as she peered down the steps into the throne room. 

Bela moved carefully over to the main floor, she had seen firsthand the trap door which lay in the center of the room. She never could bear to look at what happened down there and Bela wasn't sure if the place was booby-trapped or if Jabba only sent someone down there when he had the satisfaction of watching.

The painting was right where the tip said it would be, so far so good. Sweat started to pour down her head as she felt around for the switch. With a satisfying click, the painting frame opened up revealing a large safe. This all felt a little too old school Bela thought as she brushed her crimson hair to one side. With her ear pressed against it she started to turn the tumbler around, her heart started to race with every click she was one step closer to life-changing money. With the final lock broken the door cracked open. She slowly opened it, this was it, the biggest score ever, set for life, nothing she couldn't buy. Tears started to form in her eyes as she pulled it open…. 

Only to find it empty…..  Standing there in complete shock as she stared at the empty safe only to be brought back to reality as the sounds of sadistic laughter filled the room. Turning around in complete terror she could see the curtains slowly being pulled back revealing various guards and worst of all Jabba himself staring her down. The fat slug was belly-laughing as more guards walked into the room cutting off any hope of escape. 

One month later.

Jabba's flagship, the Star Jewel, came out of hyperspace in orbit next to the third planet of the Sol system: Earth. Jabba's personal space cruiser flew toward Earth's single moon, its enormous bulk knocking aside an satellite floating through space, sending the satellite spinning off several meters before silently imploding. On Earth, several dozen television stations went off the air instantly, a silent warning announcing the Hutt's arrival.

The cruiser's shadow fell over the Moon Palace, where Zedd stood with Goldar and Scorpina at his side. His bodyguards served as a contrast to each other: Goldar, the humanoid lion covered in golden armor with his great, imposing wings and beastial face. And Scorpina, the Amazonian woman who stood as tall as he, appearing to be an Asian woman covered in exoskeletal armor referencing the arachnid her name was deprived from. They flanked Lord Zedd as Jabba's ship came to a halt, hovering above the Moon Palace like a great bird of prey before a transport beam fired down and struck the moon's surface. In a flash of light, Jabba the Hutt, Bib Fortuna, Boba Fett, and several Gamorrean guards appeared before Zedd and his retinue. Jabba sat upon a repulsor sled, the Hutt having long embraced a sedentary lifestyle and rarely moving under his own power. With a flick of the sled's controls, Jabba floated forward to move before Zedd, his eyes flicking to admire the beautiful Scorpina behind the Emperor. She chafted under his lecherous gaze, not missing the leer in the slug's eyes but kept a stoic face.

"Zedd!" Jabba said, jovially, waving his chubby arms at Zedd. "How good to see you in person at last, old friend. Ho ho ho! I admire your palace...almost as good as my own, bwa ha ha ha! After weeks of planning, I'm looking forward to seeing our little operation come to fruition at last."

"Spare me the boot-licking, Hutt, we have a job to do and I'm through with talking!" Zedd barked, striding forward and jabbing a finger in Jabba's face. "You brought the beast, as I asked for."

Jabba smiled, not intimidated in the least by Zedd. Drool spilled down his warted chins as he rumbled, "Zedd, Zedd, of course I did. My pet is ready to carry out my orders and I'm looking forward to seeing it so transformed by your...ah...magic, ha ha ha. And...my own suggestion. Have you prepared accordingly?"

"All is ready, we only need give the order," Zedd clenched one hand into a fist, his body crackling with red light. "The Power Rangers won't know what hit them! Separated accordingly, they shall fall, deprived of their ability to unit into the mighty MegaZord! And I, Lord Zedd, will finally RULE this puny planet!"

"And the female rangers shall be mine." Jabba reminded Zedd, his tail thrashing eagerly on his sled.

Zedd sneered. "Always thinking with your lust, Hutt. Lord Zedd keeps his promises! You better just keep your own. Remember who is in charge: ME!"

"Of course, of course," Jabba said amicably, that smug smile never leaving his face. He gestured with his short, chubby arms toward the Moon Palace. "Well then, shall we?"

Zedd turned and began to stride back to the Moon Palace, Goldar falling into line behind the Emperor. Jabba followed, Boba Fett moving at his side, the bounty hunter keeping a tight grip on his blaster rifle. Bib Fortuna grinned lecherously at Scorpina and moved up to the buxom female warrior. His long fingers glided across her face, stroking her face with his soft, yet disgusting touch. Scorpina narrowed her eyes, pursing her lips as Fortuna hissed, "Its very nice to meet YOU as well, my dear. Perhaps when this is done, you can show me some company-"

Scorpina grabbed Fortuna's hand and squeezed. Hard. Fortuna squealed and fell forward, meeting Scorpina's knee as it slammed into his crotch. Fortuna fell over, sputtering for air as he fell at her feet, cradling his groin as he rocked back and forth in pain. Scorpina towered over him and said, simply, "Do not touch me." She then strode off after Zedd and Jabba, leaving Fortuna writhing on the moon surface, cradling his crotch.

***************************************************************************************************************

Meanwhile, thousands of miles below, in the town of Angel Grove, school had begun. Tommy Oliver was in the gym, one of his most frequent locales, lying on a bench and deadlifting. Zack Taylor was currently spotting him, giving Tommy his own brand of advice. "Yeah man, just like that," Zack said, as Tommy grunted as he lowered the weight he was sporting. "You've in the groove now, man. Embrace the pain! Feel the burn! Push through it! Fight it! And don't let nothing distract you!"

It was at this moment that Kimberly Ann Hart strode by. She was dressed in a tank top, which showed off her belly and a pair of snug, very tight workout shorts that showed off her perky ass. Tommy's eyes flicked to his girlfriend's rear end and he lost focus, his grip slipping on the weight. Zack caught them before they smashed down on Tommy's neck and shook his head as he guided them slowly back to the bench, the weights hitting their holding bars with a clang. Tommy sat up, huffing and puffing, rubbing his arms as Zack folded his arms.

"Man," Zack said with a laugh. "I guess even in the zone a guy ain't immune to a woman's charms."

Tommy just smiled, looking embarrassed. Kim turned around and gave the two an innocent little stare, fluttering her eyes before saying, "Sorry boys, I didn't mean to interrupt you. Good to know I can still melt Tommy's tough guy exterior though." She wink and sashayed off to the treadmill. Tommy groaned and Zack laughed, patting his friend on the back.

Meanwhile, on the gym mat, Jason Lee Scott was currently facing off against the school's duo of trouble makers and bumbling bullies: Bulk and Skull. All three of them were dressed in karate outfits and Bulk strode forward, tightening his belt around his pudgy waist.

"Its over for you, Jason!" Bulk said smugly, folding his arms. Skull imitated the gesture, mugging at Jason with an expression that was more comical than threatening. "Me and Skull have been practicing. We'll judo flip you into next week!" Bulk made a bunch of flashy karate chops.

"Yeah," Jason said with a deadpan expression, well used to the duo's boisterous antics by now. "Where'd they teach that? The Martial Arts School of Eating Donuts?"

"Why you-!" Bulk kicked at Jason. His blow was clumsy and easily blocked. Jason grabbed his foot in midair and Bulk gave a yelp as Jason used the bully's own considerable weight against him. He flipped Bulk and sent him smacking face first into the mat. Bulk groaned, his eyes spinning. Skull leaped over him and thrust a punch at Jason's chest. Jason caught the punch easily and squeezed Skull's hand. Skull squealed like a girl before falling to his knees.

"My advice?" Jason smirked before releasing Skull and sending him flopping on top of Skull, the two idiots lying in a pile as they groaned in pain. "Stick to eating donuts."

Suddenly, a telepathic, booming voice reverberated inside all of the Ranger's heads. "RANGERS! EMERGENCY ALERT! COME TO THE COMMAND CENTER IMMEDIATELY!" Tommy, Zack, Kim, and Jason all shot upright quickly and made a hasty exit from the gym, leaving Bulk and Skull to endure their latest humiliation. They ran out of the school, into the parking lot and disappeared in flashes of multicolored light. They soared through the air, joining by two more flashes to form six, flying over the landscape for several hundred miles before arriving at a large, bas-relief palace in the middle of a barren desert. Inside, they formed back into their regular selves, now joined by Trini and Billy, each dressed in their Ranger uniforms, hugging their helmets to their sides. They stood before a transparent tube, in which an old, bald man's head appeared. Zordon.

"What's wrong, Zordon?" Jason said, ever the leader and always the first to get a word in, striding forward before their mentor. "Is it Zedd? A monster attack?"

"A MYSTERIOUS SHIP HAS APPEARED IN ORBIT AROUND EARTH!" Zordon boomed, the viewing screen beside him changing to show a picture of the Star Jewel exiting hyerspace next to the moon. "THE SHIP APPEARS TO BELONG TO NOTORIOUS GANGSTER JABBA THE HUTT. I DETECTED MULTIPLE BEINGS EXITING THE SHIP AND ENTERING ZEDD'S PALACE."

"Then we can assume Zedd has called in reinforcements." Billy said, adjusting his glasses.

Zack laughed and pumped a fist. "Ha! Hell yeah. That means ole Z-head is desperate. We've been kicking his ass up and down the block for weeks!"

"What do you know about Jabba, Zordon?" Trini asked quizzically, narrowing her dark eyes as she studied the viewing screen. "That's a big ship!"

"JABBA THE HUTT IS A NOTORIOUS GANGSTER FROM A DISTANT GALAXY. FEARED AND RESPECTED THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE, HE'S BUILT AN EMPIRE ON GREED AND STOLEN GOODS AND IS AMONG THE RICHEST BEINGS IN THE KNOWN UNIVERSE. HIS RANKS INCLUDE AN ENDLESS SUPPLY OF BOUNTY HUNTERS, SPACE PIRATES, AND SMUGGLERS. IF I TOLD YOU HALF THE THINGS I'D HEARD ABOUT HIM, I'M AFRAID ALPHA MIGHT SHORT CIRCUIT."

"Aye-yi-yi-yi-yi!" Alpha 5, Zordon's personal robotic attendant said from behind the console. He turned to face the Rangers, waving his hands wildly. "Incoming message from the Moon Palace!"

The Rangers went silent. They glanced at each other, faces slick with dread. Grimacing, Jason made the call and nodded to Alpha. "Put him on. Let's see that the asshole has to say."

The viewing screen changed, showing a closeup of Zedd's gruesome visage. "Greetings Power Rangers, my hated foes!" Zedd snarled, brandishing his clawed fingers.

"What do you want now, Zedd?" Tommy snarled, glaring at the Emperor. "Got another scheme cooked up to annoy us?"

"Yeah, man," Zack added. "Every time we tangle, we win! How about you take the hint and go back to whatever freaky slime planet you crawled out of already?!"

Zedd laughed, chuckling darkly. "Always with the spirited barbs, Rangers! There is no evil scheme today, I'm afraid! I've got a new ally I'd like to introduce you to! Behold...Jabba the Hutt!"

The camera swiveled and Jabba the Hutt's horrible, blob-like face filled the screen with his slimy, noxious form. Kim gagged at the sight of him and made a face, exclaiming, "GROSS!" Jabba's eyes instantly went to her and she felt a little cold, seeing the slug-like mass of blubber staring at her with what might have been...lust? Desire? She didn't like it and took a step behind Tommy, wrapping her arms around his bicep for comfort. Tommy stepped in front of her, to distract Jabba from his girlfriend and said,

"You sure know how to pick them, Zedd. Another gross alien to add to your menagerie."

"HO HO HO HO!" Jabba's trademark, booming laugh exploded from the view screen, Kim blanching at the sight of rivers of slime running from the edges of his craggy mouth. "I am pleased to meet you, Power Rangers. I admire any man bold enough to struck around like a Coruscant circus acrobat, ha ha ha!"

"Stuff it, slimeball," Jason snarled, clenching a fist at Jabba. "We hear you're a top big shot gangster. Zedd hired you, huh? What's your fat ass gonna do?"

Jabba smiled smugly and his huge tongue briefly emerging to lick his horrible lips. Kim pressed a hand over her mouth and moaned, "That is SO gross."

The view screen switched back to Zedd, who pointed a finger at the camera. "Oh, Jabba has lent me considerable resources! I'm through playing around, you sniveling FOOLS. I am Emperor of all I see and this planet will belong to me!" Zedd pressed a device on his wrist and spoke into it, "Finster! Unleash all the Putties and reformed monsters onto Angel Grove. LET THE INVASION BEGIN!"

Jabba spoke at the same time, the view screen flicking back to him. He gripped a microphone attached to his repulsor sled, booming, "Bounty hunters! Assist Lord Zedd! Burn this puny town to cinders, ho ho ho!"

The view screen went off. Alpha 5 cried out in terror and squealed, "Oh no! Its terrible, Zordon, terrible! Look!" He flicked a console switch, showing a bird's eye view of Angel Grove. In flashes of light, Putties appeared and not just the small groups the Rangers were used but a veritable army of them. Alongside them were countless monsters the Rangers had fought and destroyed. Pirantis Head. Salaguana. Magnet Brain. King Sphinx. Pudgy Pig. Eye Guy. Terror Toad. Pumpkin Rapper. They were all there, alongside new foes. Jabba's bounty hunters, led by Boba Fett, teleported in soon after, the fearsome Dengar, Bossk, 4-LOM, Zuckuss, and IG-88 among their ranks. Citizens screamed as they ran for their lives, the united forces of Zedd and Jabba beginning a rampage through Angel Grove.

"Holy shit!" Zack said, his eyes going wide. "Its a damn invasion!"

"Rangers!" Jason said, putting on his helmet. "We need to move out! Zordon! Sent us to Angel Grove.

"GO, RANGERS, BUT BE CAREFUL!" Zordon's magic engulfed them and they were instantly transported into the center of town. In flashes of multicolored light, the Power Rangers, now all baring their helmets, looked around at the chaos. Putties were swarming over city blocks, smashing into stores and homes, dogpiling and attacking any civilians they could see. Monsters were running wild. Boba Fett twisted about and raised his blaster at the Rangers. As he did, he spoke into his com link.

"Jabba. They're here."

"Good!" Jabba said, his booming voice crackling in Fett's ear. "Remember the plan, Fett! Ho ho ho..."

"Rangers!" Jason said, the Red Ranger drawing his Power Sword and flourishing it. "Its morphin' time! Let's get 'em!"

The Rangers charged into battle. Jason hurled himself in a group of Putties, swinging his sword fasting than the human eye could see, cutting down numerous Putties in an explosion of sparks. Zack flipped over a burning truck, coming down to slice Terror Toad's tongue in half from where it had grabbed a civilian. Billy charged forward, his Power Lance ramming through a line of Putties in his path. Trini spun her Power Daggers, deflecting rapid blaster shots from IG-88 and Zuckus, sending their own shots back and them, forcing the bounty hunters to take cover behind a police car. Kimberly leaped into midair, unleashing a shot from her Power Bow, nailing Eye Guy in one of his numerous eyes and sending him flying backward to smash into a nearby coffee shop. Finally, Tommy ran to Jason's side, raising his Dragon Dagger high, annihilating a squadron of Putties in arcs of green energy.

"There's thousands of them!" Kimberly cried, landing on a car and kicking a Puttie off before firing another arrow at Magnet Brain. "We're horribly outnumbered!"

"Don't get overwhelmed!" Jason cried, slashing down several Putties. He and Tommy moved, back to back as they saw Pirantis Head advancing on them. The monster bellowed and charged, snapping his teeth hungrily. "Looks like Zedd is bringing back some old favorites! Tommy...!" The Red and Green Ranger crashing their weapons together, unleashing the combined power of the Power Sword and the Dragon Dagger. An enormous burst of energy fired forward, striking Pirantis Head and the monster screamed before he was consumed by the power blast, exploding in a massive fireball that rocked the street.

Billy swung his Lance, smashing Putties away from him. Pudgy Pig burst up from behind him, bleating hungrily. "Mmm...breakfast!" The pig-monster squealed. Billy spun around just in time, raising his Power Lance. Pudgy Pig opened his maw and inhaled, a vortex of wind ripping Billy's weapon from his hands. Pudgy Pig swallowed the Power Lance and burped, patting his round form. "Hehehehe...delicious! More!"

"You gluttonous pig!" Billy cried, unleashing a furious onslaught of blows on Pudgy Pig, punching him repeatedly in the nose and forcing him back across the intersection. Nearby, Zack slammed a Puttie's head against a car before tearing off the car door and freeing a panicked mother and her kids. As he did, Dengar shot him from behind and Zack cried out, a blaster bolt hitting square between his shoulders. He went flying, sparks crackling around him, slamming into the street and rolling several feet. He rose, dusting himself off and raised his fists as Dengar marched toward him.

"Sucker shot, man!" Zack cried. "That ain't right!"

"This is war, kid!" Dengar laughed back. "Ain't no rules in war!" The bounty hunter hurled a thermal detonator at Zack, who kicked in midair and sent it flying through the sky, where it denotated above Angel Grove. The explosion shattered numerous windows, raining glass onto the city streets.

Trini ran up alongside Kimberly, slashing and stabbing her way through the endless swarm of Putties. King Sphinx bellowed a challenge at her and grabbed a police car, hurling at the two female rangers. "Kim-!" Trini said, preparing to duck. Kim spun around and fired off a shot from her arrow, slicing the vehicle in two. She then somersaulted into the air, firing off an arrow that struck King Sphinx and forced him to his knees. Trini charged in, moving with a burst of yellow light, and slashed King Sphinx in twain, the monster roaring as he exploded behind her in a burst of flame.

"Nice work!" The girls both said, before high fiving each other.

Some feet away, Billy had forced Pudgy Pig against a garbage truck, wailing on the monster relentlessly. As he did, Zuckus snuck out from his hiding place and took aim with a sadistic giggle, firing off a spraynet from his snare rifle. It engulfed Billy and he screamed as the net engulfed him with electricity, sending him flopping to the ground. Pudgy Pig cackled and opened his maw, sucking the Blue Ranger down his throat. He burped again and smacked his lips.

"Billy-!" Zack cried, spinning around. Dengar grinned and fired off a high power shot from his rifle. It hit Zack in the back again, launching him face first into the road. The Black Ranger raised his hand weakly before he was dog piled by Putties, who began pounding on his down form. Dengar shrieked with laughter, firing off blaster shots into the air.

"Zack!" Jason cried but he was dealing with his own problems. Despite their initial success, he and Tommy had been forced back into a department store, the endless swarm of Putties and monsters overwhelming even the two most formidable of the Power Rangers. Magnet Brain raised his staff and magnetized the two Rangers, sending Jason and Tommy slamming into each other. He then generated a giant magnet, which he threw at the two Rangers, the magnet slamming into them and sending them rocketing through the department store before being pinned in place to the wall. The Putties swarmed after them, the two Rangers lost from view.

Fett tapped his com link. "They're separated and overwhelmed. Now?"

"Now." Jabba's firm command came over the com link. Fett activated his jet pack and flew toward the female Rangers. He raised one wrist and fired his vibro cord, which wrapped around Kimberly, snagging her arms and coiling them up, pinning them against her waist. She yelped and squirmed, but she couldn't break her bonds, trussed up like a bound animal. Fett pulled, yanking her to him, the Pink Ranger falling into his arms. He wrapped an arm around her squirming form and spoke into his com link:

"Beam me up!"

"Kim-!" Trini cried, before Kimberly and Fett were engulfed in a teleportation beam and vanished from sight in a flash of light. Trini looked around for help, starting to panic and didn't see Pumpkin Rapper behind her. The pumpkin monster conjured one of his pumpkin vines and threw it at her like a lasso.

"Come here you!" Pumpkin Rapper bellowed, YANKING on the vine. Trini was ripped off her feet, flying across the street and right into the monster's arms. Pumpkin Rapper held the squirming Yellow Ranger nice and tight, laughing before he bellowed. "Now BEAM me up, its time to fulfill Lord Zedd's dream!" He too was hit with a teleportation beam and vanished from sight, sucked back to the Moon Palace.

*************************************************************************************************************

Inside the Moon Palace, Lord Zedd strode through the dark halls until he reached his observation platform. He spread his arms wide at Earth before waving one clawed finger. Jabba's ship fired its own teleportation beam, transporting Jabba's pet that he'd brought with him to Earth. Jabba's rancor appeared in the desert outside Angel Grove, the beast looking around for a snack.

"A wonderful beast, Jabba!" Zedd sneered before conjuring a Growth Bomb. He raised it high, empowering it with his magic, before FLINGING it at Earth. The Growth Bomb breached the atmosphere, sailing downward until it struck the rancor, where it exploded on contact. The rancor roared and its height began to expand, as Zedd cackled and said, "Now...MAKE MY MONSTER GROW!"

**************************************************************************************************************

Back in the streets of Angel Grove, the combined forces were still on the rampage. As Putties swarm over everything it sight and the bounty hunters began to loot in abundance, red and green energy blasted over from the department store, sending a swarm of Putties and Magnet Brain flying. Jason and Tommy ran through the doors, looking around desperately. "Kim!" Tommy cried. "Kimmy!"

"Trini?!" Jason cried as well, the two Rangers not seeing the girls. "Billy?! Zack?!" He found Zack groaning on the ground, his outfit covered in blaster burns. Jason helped his teammate to his feet and said, "Zack...where's Billy and the girls?"

"Billy...got eaten," Zack said, breathing heavily as Jason supported him. "As for the girls..." he pointed up at the moon in the sky. "They...took them."

"Bastards!" Tommy snarled as he looked up. "Come on guys, we need to go to the moon and-"

The ground suddenly shook. All three Rangers paused and twisted around. "Ohhh crap..." Zack groaned, as the hulking, gigantic, kaiju-sized form of Jabba's rancor crashing into the outskirts of town. The Rancor ROARED, its bellow engulfing the streets before it swung one claw down, pulverizing a building in a shower of dust. All three Rangers paused and looked at the giant beast then at the army still rampaging through Angel Grove.

"Damnit..." Tommy hissed. "Damnit!"

"We need you here," Jason said quietly, laying a hand on Tommy's shoulder. "We need the DragonZord. Without Trini, Kim, and Billy, we can't form the MegaZord."

"Damn you, Zedd." Tommy said before pulling out his Dragon Dagger. "Damn you!" Angrily, he channeled his rage into the dagger, blowing onto it like a flute and playing a musical tune to summon his DragonZord, as Angel Grove burned around them and the Rancor strode toward the center of town, the enormous beast smashing its way through buildings.

Tommy could only hope and pray that the girls were alright. What awaited them on the moon, with Zedd and especially Jabba...he didn't want to contemplate.

I knew that someone literally pasted Jeremy's face onto Rotta's body, but I felt like giving a fantasy of Jeremy Allen White in Oola's previous position before Leia

"FOOLS! INCOMPETENTS! CRETINS!!!"

Lord Zedd was in a very bad mood.

The self-proclaimed 'Emperor' of his personal empire, a dominion that had conquered known stretches of the universe with a seemingly limitless amount of aliens, monsters, and weapons at his command, Lord Zedd had personally come to Earth when he found his chief servant, Rita Repulsa, had been stifled in her efforts to conquer the third planet of the Sol system, known as Earth. Zedd had been unimpressed with Rita's bumbling efforts and sealed her inside a cosmic dumpster before hurling her into the far reaches of space. He had then taken over the operation, finding Rita's efforts had been stalled by a team of teenage superheroes known as the Power Rangers. Six children, as Zedd dismissed them as, which should have been easy prey. Unfortunately for Zedd, the Power Rangers had proven ferocious opponents and he had run into the same deadlock that Rita had found herself in. Now he was stuck, at his wits end, the mocking laughter of the Rangers echoing in his mind from countless humiliating defeats, driving him to the brink of desperation and madness.

Zedd stalked through the dimly lit hall of his throne room. He was an imposing figure, a tall, humanoid alien who appeared to have been skinned alive, exposing sinew and muscle. Metal implements ran through his body, his head that of a metallic helmet with a single eye, with a Z-shaped horn attached. His metallic, claw-like fingers gripped his staff in one hand, as he turned his fury on his minions.

Cowering before him were his array of minions, the noble but foolish Goldar, the sniveling duo of Squatt and Baboo, and the elderly monster sculptor Finster. All of them had been summoned to Lord Zedd's throne room on the Moon Palace overlooking Earth to suffer his latest fury. Zedd thrust one clawed finger through the open window, pointing furiously at Earth amongst the stars.

"Why am I still here?!" Zedd snarled, his every word punctuated by his form glowing with raw magical power, enveloping the palace in a hellish glow. "Why have I not conquered Earth already and continued on to begin my conquest anew of more worlds? My empire has STALLED and my reputation of fear is at stake! Countless worlds are beginning to stir with the throes of rebellion thanks to my failure to take this planet! And most of all...why I have been SADDLED with such an idiotic array of absolute MORONS AT MY COMMAND?!?!"

"U-uh we can't help it, your majesty!" Squatt sputtered, squealing as he tried to beg for Zedd's mercy. "The-the Power Rangers are too strong!"

"Y-yeah," Baboo addled, not daring to look up but adding his words to try and soothe Zedd's temper. "I mean we've sent everything we think of after them! Every plan...every monster! But they just keep stopping our every effort! We-we've tried everything...they must be invincible!"

"I have crossed blades with the Power Rangers numerous times," Goldar agreed. "There's is not just raw power but the power of teamwork and friendship. It empowers them and allows them to rise where we do not."

"Teamwork?!" Zedd sneered, slamming his staff on the floor with such force that sparks flew. Squatt and Baboo yelped and hugged each other, shivering fearfully. "Friendship?! BAH! They are nothing before me! It is only the idiots I have been forced to use that keep me from total victory! I need fresh blood...perhaps I should summon Lokar once again. I could make a sacrifice of your four to him, empower him with your blood!"

"Eh...your majesty..." Finster coughed, stepping forward. He cowered as Zedd turned his glare on the diminutive sculptor but found the courage to speak nonetheless. "I...may have an idea."

"Speak," Zedd said, striding back to his throne and sitting upon it. His clawed hands curled at the edges of the armrest and he hissed, in a dangerously low tone, "It may just save your life, misshaped one."

"Well..." Finster took off his glasses and coughed, cleaning them. "Before you consider...ah...killing all of us...I suggest perhaps some fresh blood is in order. A new ally, yes...erm...w-what about Jabba the Hutt?"

"The Hutt?" Goldar rose off the floor, the golden lion man waving his blade at Finster. "You dare sully the palace with that name! He is a criminal, a noxious dealer in drugs. Not to mention his rather depraved taste in humanoid women. Jabba is a scoundrel, untrustworthy!"

Zedd raised a hand. Goldar reluctantly went quiet. Zedd leaned back in his chair. The clink-clink of his clawed fingers drummed on his armrest, echoing through the Moon Palace. Zedd then chuckled darkly and stroked his chin.

"Finster, that may be the first good idea you have had. Let us send a message to Jabba the Hutt...at once!"

****************************************************************************************************************

Far from Earth, in a galaxy far, far away, Jabba the Hutt lounged on his dais. The sultan slug loomed large in the center of his coat, his great nostrils breathing in the noxious fumes of his court, stained with alcohol and spice. His huge, phallic tail wiggled sleepily on the cushions and blankets that adorned the metal slab he called his dais. Salacious Crumb sat on his nest of pillows in the great curl of Jabba's tail, watching the tip of the appendage lazily slither back and forth, the monkey lizard hypnotized by its movement. The court around the Hutt was in a similarly lazy mood, the dregs that composed his court whispering amongst themselves, playing games of sabaac, and enjoying the pleasures of the palace that Jabba had provided for them.

Jabba took a long hit of his hookah before blowing a smoke ring into the air. He was saddened he hadn't his own pleasures to indulge himself. He had disposed of the latest slavegirl to adorn his dais the other day, a spirited Togruta who hadn't learned her place quick enough. After she had thrown a glass of wine in Jabba's face, Jabba's fury had consigned her to a swift execution in the rancor pit. Jabba had been most amused by watching his favorite pet devour the screaming girl but now, his dais was cold, without a lovely companion to adorn himself with. His eyes roamed the court, searching for a suitable replacement but he only found the usual array of harem girls that had filled his court ranks. Lyn Me. Rystall. Greeta. Jess. All lovely in their own right but far too boring to take as a potential throne slave. Jabba was bored with the usual offerings provided. He wanted something fresh, something new.

Bib Fortuna suddenly appeared out of the shadows, Jabba's majordomo slinking to his master's side like a snake. The Twi'Lek leaned forward, whispering in the Hutt's ear. "Mighty Jabba," Fortuna whispered. "A message, my lord, from Lord Zedd..."

Lord Zedd. Now that was a name Jabba hadn't heard in a long time. A tyrannical emperor who had risen to prominence through the alliance of aliens under his feet, whose power had radiated through the cosmos as planet after planet fell to his iron fist. Jabba had dealt with Zedd before, providing him with locations of worlds to conquer and resources to aid Lord Zedd's cause. For the right price, of course. Jabba rose up with a grunt, adjusting his blob-like, sagging mass of flesh as he rose into what might have passed for a sitting position amongst humanoids.

"Zedd," Jabba said, taking another hit off his hookah. He chuckled, his trademark booming laugh rumbling through his audience chamber. "Ah, how interesting. Please, allow the message to be broadcasted..."

Fortuna nodded and placed a holographic key on the space before Jabba's dais. The key opened with a click and a hologram crackled to life. The looming, imposing form of Zedd popped into existence before the Hutt gangster, his hologram twice Jabba's size, his magnificence radiating through the palace. Jabba was not impressed nor intimidated but he greeted Zedd with his usual jovial charm, reserved for clients.

"Ah, Lord Zedd," Jabba said, lowering his hookah and laying it at the side of his dais with a click. He gestured emphatically at the Emperor, Bib Fortuna hovering at his side, all eyes on the hologram. "It has been too long, my old friend. To what do I owe the pleasure?"

"Spare the pleasantries, Jabba, you will find me not in the mood," Zedd growled, his hologram flickering in and out of focus as he spoke. "I come to you seeking..." The Emperor paused before he said, with great reluctance, "Aid."

"Oh?" Jabba said, unable to keep the smile from his warted maw. "And what could the great Emperor Zedd need from me, old friend? Is it more resources to help fuel that war machine you dubbed Serpentera?"

"Not this time," Zedd replied. "This time, I seek your help in one of my conquests. I have been attempting to conquer a planet called Earth for some stellar cycles. But my efforts have been stalled thanks to the efforts of a group of superpowered defenders called the Power Rangers! Sniveling, witless youths granted unfathomable cosmic power! They should be easy prey but thanks to the efforts of the bufoonish minions I have unfortunately saddled myself with, they have claimed victory after victory! But I won't let my efforts be stopped by a group of puny teenagers! That is why I have come to YOU, Hutt, for your aid!"

Jabba snorted, expelling rivers of snot. Fortuna smiled, showing his fangs, but Jabba raised a hand, stopping his court from mocking Lord Zedd. He did not wish to anger the Emperor. It could mean losing a potential, very well paying client. "I am not used to aiding others in battle, Lord Zedd, but it is no stranger to me either. In my day, I led numerous gang wars across the galaxy, establishing myself as the TOP gangster of countless systems. I would be happy to aid you, Lord Zedd. But ah...you should know I don't do things for free. Even for an old friend, ho ho ho!"

"If its profit you want, you'll have it," Zedd said, jabbing a clawed finger at the Hutt, his hologram flickering from the movement. "I care not for credits, only resources to fuel my empire! Earth's resources shall be divided between us, seventy percent to me, thirty to you."

"A paltry thirty percent?" Jabba sneered, his tail thumping against the dais to communicate his displeasure. "Zedd, Zedd, with all due respect, that is a paltry sum. I am putting my life on the line for you, old friend, if these Power Rangers are as powerful as you say. To have met your MAGNIFICENCE on even footing and fought you to such a standstill communicates that much to me. No, no...fifty percent split. An even profit for two conquerors."

Zedd clenched one hand into a fist but he suppressed his temper. "Fine! Fifty-fifty. But you best pull your weight, Hutt. I will not suffer another failure!"

"Oh, my resources will be at your full disposal," Jabba said, patting his enormous belly and making it jiggle. "Of course, I'll need to see what I'm dealing with. Show me these...Power Rangers."

"Very well." Zedd waved a hand and the hologram changed. Now it showed Jabba and his court who would be their foes. A pair of five colorful, spandex covered superheroes stood together. Their leader was red, while the rest stood tall in spectrums of black, blue, yellow, and pink. The view changed to show a sixth Ranger, this one green. Each of them appeared to have a dinosaur theme to their outfits, save for the sixth Ranger, whose costume seemed to be designed after a dragon instead. The hologram changed to show the Power Rangers in battle, Jabba watching numerous scenes from their clashes with Zedd's forces. They spun with athletic precision as they fought their way through a horde of Putties, cutting them down in droves through a mix of martial arts and handheld weapons. Monster after monster was destroyed through a montage of scenes, each time the Power Rangers shouted cheesy victory lines and emerging triumphant. At one point, Zedd sent a giant monster to crush Angel Grove and the Power Rangers united, their mech vehicles known as Zords transforming into a huge robot called the MegaZord. The MegaZord cleaved the giant monster in two, the beast screaming in impotent fury before it exploded in a great fireball.

"Behold...the Power Rangers! Once five, now six, teenagers with attitude and gifted abilities beyond any normal human thanks to the wizard Zordon!" Zedd spoke, his contempt oozing freely from his voice. The hologram changed, now showing all the Power Rangers together in their command center, their helmets off.

"Their number is composed of these six! The Red Ranger! Jason Lee Scott!" A young, handsome man with a rippling physique was shown, who gave the camera a winning, heroic smile.

"Zack Taylor! The Black Ranger!" A young, African-American man was shown, his eyes shining with attitude and exuberance.

"Billy Cranston! The Blue Ranger!" This young man had glasses and a lesser confident expression than his fellows, wearing a serious expression as he listened to Zordon.

"Tommy Oliver! The Green Ranger!" The tallest of the group, the Green Ranger had his hair braided into a slick ponytail and also wore a serious expression, radiating a natural order of confidence.

"Kimberly Ann Hart! The Pink Ranger!" A cute girl was shown, prompting whistles and whispers from the court. She had a beautiful smile and a gorgeous appearance, with short style hair that framed her beautiful, creamy face. Jabba's eyes widened with interest, his tail giving an aroused twitch.

"Finally, Trini Kwan! The Yellow Ranger!" An Asian girl was shown, her long, silky black hair framing her similarly beautiful face. She bore a similar expression to Tommy, but had good looks to match Kimberly's own.

"These are your foes, Jabba," Zedd said, his face reappearing as the Power Rangers were dismissed. "Together, we will CRUSH them. The Power Rangers will finally be destroyed and I, Zedd, will RULE their puny planet!"

"Yes, yes, of course," Jabba said, his tail swelling slightly as it slithered back and forth. He drooled as the images of Kimberly and Trini wafted in his mind, his great, slobbery tongue briefly emerging to lick his grotesque lips. "But ah...I have one final condition for my participation in this, my dear Emperor."

"More demands, Hutt?!" Zedd snarled and lowered his clenched fist. "Bah, very well. What do you want now?"

Jabba smiled darkly. His eyes flashed as he said. "The other four Power Rangers, destroy them yes. But the Pink Ranger and the Yellow Ranger...I want them. I want them for myself. Ho ho ho ho ho!"

Whenever you write fics with “Jabba wins” endings where the character ends up enjoying their time as slave, how do you balance it by making it make sense in character?
