[QUOTE="masshysteria, post: 4952353, member: 16055"] Jooma the Ithorian delicately packs Rowintha’s purchases into a crate. “Now remember, the Dathomiri orchid likes a humid environment, I recommend using a—“ He’s cut short as two Gamorean’s blunder into the shop. One knocks over a table spilling soil to the floor. “Ah, excuse me gentlemen, but is there something I can help you with?” Jooma attempts. Rowintha’s Garmorean may be rusty but if she was paying attention, she would have made out the words “Wookie” and “bounty”. But as it was, she was drawn to the Ryyk blade one of the Gamoreans was wielding. That can only mean one thing, slavers. Rowintha shrugs her force pike of her shoulder catching it in one hand. She lets out a howl and charges the Gamorean with the Ryyk blade. He catches the crackling spear tip and deflects it harmlessly to the side. The other Gamorean throws aside a table to the side and moves to flank the Wookie. Rowintha turns to take care of the new threat when she feels a sharp pain ripple through her shoulders and down her spine. Then there is nothing. Kaldo’s flying antics have paid off, a female Duros clings to his arm as they walk back toward the Vagrant Heart. She just has to see the ship. Kaldo’s heart skips a beat when he enters the hangar bay. An Arcona and Whiphid are looking up and down the ship, a strange device in hand. Kaldo pushes his companion down into the dirt behind a few crates. She looks upset and is about to protest when Kaldo puts his finger to his lips, peers over the crate, and draws his blaster. Straining, he can barely make out their conversation. "Are you sure this is it?" Grumbles the Whiphid. "It matches the description." The Arcona replies. "Well, let's get on with it then." The Whiphid starts to approach the ship and turns and looks at his companion. "I thought you said this was it. Why are you waiting?" "I said it matches the description, I didn't say this was it." The Arcona corrects. "So what's the plan?" "I'll put a boot lock on one of the landing gears, if it is them, they'll be stuck here. If it isn't, I'll hit the remote disengage and the proprietor of this fine vessel is none the wiser." "Can't I just wait by the door and bash 'em on the head, Vulk?" "See this is why I do the thinking, Thid." The two begin walking toward the Vagrant Heart. Kaldo waits until they are under the YT-2000 and then whispers to his companion, “Stay here.” He takes a deep breath and then silently sprints across the bay into the Vagrant Heart. His feet don’t stop moving until he’s in the cockpit. He slaps the docking gun controls and swivels the cannon around to point at the two intruders. “I think you boys need to be taking that off my ship” Kaldo says into the intercom, “before my finger gets too itchy.” The Arcona slowly puts his hands up, “Ah, Thid. Take the boot lock of this fine man’s ship.” The Whiphid removes the lock and holds it out so it is clearly visible. “See, it’s gone now.” The Arcona says, “We’ll just be slowly backing away.” Kaldo grins to himself as he keeps the cannon trained on them until they leave the docking bay. He then saunters over to the landing ramp and calls out to his female friend, “I live a dangerous life, you know. You still wanna get mixed up with me?” She seems to blush and then runs her hand suggestively across Kaldo's chest as she enters the ship. [/QUOTE]
