[QUOTE="Iron Sky, post: 5288033, member: 60965"] Gradi Hadi waited for the [I]Utha's Pride[/I] hatch to slide open and quickly walked across the umbilical, laughing as he walked into the familiar cargo hold. Ahead, at the end of the narrow hallway at the far side of the hold sat Utha in his pilot's chair, the Isalis crystal gleaming in his hand. “Isalis mada Hadi, Utha genko!” he said, sauntering across the hold like he owned it. Anticipation turned quickly to alarm when two humans with blasters appeared in the hallway, stepping out of the side rooms and opening fire. Gradi leapt to the side, on bolt nearly missing his head while the other blew a hole in the umbilical that attached the two ships. As he scrambled to his feet, a strange [I]thrum[/I] came from the air vent above him and he glanced up just in time to see a blade of pure golden energy slice through the vent, a tiny human screaming as it fell straight towards him. He rolled to the side as the lightsaber cut a shallow groove in the deckplates, then sprang to his feet again, nearly catching a hurtling bit of trash to the face as it flew from deeper in the ship towards the breach. He rolled to the side as one of the humans fired again, the bolt again flying wide, and fumbled for his own blaster. Behind him, he heard the sound of the airlock door [I]clang [/I]shut and brought his blaster up almost to have his hand taken off by the lightsaber. Another bolt flew past his head as he backpedaled away from the kid and he glanced over to see one of the humans cursing and trying to pull a bit of previously air born junk from the barrel of his blaster while the other lined up another shot. He brought his own blaster up to take a quick shot in reply, but the ship lurched and he staggered – right into the lightsaber blade. *** Ishmael grunted as he and Blondie dropped the one-legged Rodian corpse in front of the [I]Rings Corporation Ltd.[/I] kiosk. Christian got on the computer again and brought up the bounty board, tapping the [I]Claim Bounty[/I] button that appeared on the screen. Instantly, a small panel opened in the wall next to the kiosk, a small flitter droid drifting out. It floated over the Rodian, a wide beam of light scanning the corpse from head to toe and back again. It floated there for a second as if waiting for something, then a small arm deployed from a hole in its side and made a circling gesture, then pointed at the Rodian. Ishmael blinked a couple times, then got it, flipping the Rodian over onto his back. After doing another full-body scan, the droid floated back to its panel and a second later, 500 credits sat in Blondie's hand. At almost the same time, Utha came skipping back from the Inner Ring access shaft, another handful of credits in his hand. “Your 10%, after paying the Isalis Security's 10% for escorting us here, is 183 credits,” Utha said. “I still don't think we should have had to pay them,” Ishmael said. “Aren't we security enough?” “They would have found me and done horribles to me if we hadn't,” Utha said, shaking his head rapidly as he extended their share of the credits. “Believe Utha, it's better this way.” “Here's your 10% of our bounty, as promised,” Blondie said. The exchange complete, they parted ways with the little miner, heading back Dockside to lay low for a week, just in case. Unless, of course, another job came up sooner... *** And, here our session ends. With it, ends the Story Hour... for now. I gave my buddy his character sheet when he left to go back home, so we'll play with him over Skype some time in the future. When that happens, I'll continue with their adventures. [/QUOTE]
