A blaster bolt flew over Cale's shoulder to strike against the hull of the fighter.
"Hold it, Darksun. You have to deal with me first. We have unfinished buisness." Solms announced from the fortress exit.
The hunter had his SC-rifle drawn and trained on the outlaw, waiting for him to make a move.

Mordranna looked to the others. "It looks like it's time for us to boogey out of here," Smiling to Angel, placing a gentle pat on her shoulder, she then suggested, "Let's go see your brother,"
And then, the clatter of booted feet came. "But first, let's deal with these goons," she said, her blue-violet blade flashing to life.

Cale spun around, his pistol up in a blur of movement.
He stared down the sight of his DL-18, his expression grim.
"Solms. I wondered where you had crawled off to. Sorry, but I havent time to mess with you. Your boss is getting away, and I really want to have the satsfaction of scattering his corpse across the landscape."
His brow furrowed as he continued.
"I can end this. I can put that wretched dog down for good."

"I harbor no more loyalty to Drako. My contract with him is finished."
Solms shrugged the rifle against his shoulder.
"Besides, Darksun, he is the Jedi's concern. Not yours. Never was he your enemy, nor were you his. But Drako is a victim of pride. You slighted him, and he never was able to have is revenge on you for it. It cost him billions of credits, countless wasted hours, and now the loss of his fortress to the Jedi.
Are you going to succumb to the same idiotic type of grudge that proved to be his weakness? Or will you leave him to those who have a right to take arms against him."
Solms paused his viewplate's gaze locked with Cale's eyes.
"Junta's wife is safe. I had my droid take her in my ship to Skull Base. I'm sure she will be safe there until you return her to her husband."

Cale listened to the bounty hunter's words.
He did not lower his gun.
But he did give a dry smirk to Solms.
"You're too damn smart for your own good bucket head. I knew you bugged my ship. No other way you could track me so easily. So let me guess. You want your payment then. Sorry if I'm a little short on credits right now."

"You can keep your money, Darksun." Solms said calmly. "Drako's paid me enough to allow me to retire and buy myself my own moon with whats left over. Or a battle cruiser depending on my mood. But I want one last good fight before I quit the game, the final hunt. And I want you to be the prey."

The hall erupted in blasterfire, as Drako's soldiers fired away. Although Mordranna had her saber, she wouldn't kill if it could be avoided. Pushing her hand out, she practically tore out chunks of random computer panels and beams, hurling them with the Force at the soldiers.
"Nin nin nin!" she cheerily exclaimed, as a couple of soldiers took a hasty retreat from their position.

Cale's grin turned to a frown.
"I'm not exactly in the best shape for a fight, Solms. But if you want it, I'll have no problem burning you down. Even with all your toys."

"No Darksun. I wont fight you here. I want to take you down when you're ready for it, rested and prepared. Meet me on Nikto's Mesa on Ord Mantell. I will pull no punches. If I defeat you and take you alive, I will hand you over to the Republic to pay for your crimes. If I kill you, I collect the reward for your corpse. And if you defeat me in any way, It will be the last you will ever see of me."

Cale lowered his pistol and nodded.
"Fine. I'll be there. And only one of us will walk away from it. I'll kill myself before before being turned in again."

" It's amazing how they think they stand a chance, despite countless instances proving they don't. " Angel said, as she Force Pushed a troop into another, causing them both to crash into the wall. At the same time, she brought one of her sabers to life in her free hand and prepared for the oncoming blaster shots that she knew would be coming right at her.

Solms lowered his own blaster.
"That is your problem. Not mine. I look forward to my final hunt."
He turned to head back into the fortress, throwing one last look over his shoulder.
I will await you on Ord Mantell. Make sure you have your affairs in order."
With that he disapeared into the Geonosian structure insearch of a transport off world.

Cale watched the hunter depart, then twirled and holstered his blaster.
"Back home I go it looks like." He checked his Chrono and smirked.
"Looks like I got time yet before the fireworks start. Lets have a little fun, eh Girl?"
The Engines of the Phoenix roared eagerly in response as Cale hopped in and strapped himself down.
The Canopy closed as Cale slid his helmet on and he took ahold of the joystick.
"Now lets show these bastards why the Devil knows my name."
With a scream the engines flared and the Phoenix shot off towards the remaining defending starfighters.
With frightening ease the mixed bag of geonosian and droid fighters began to fall from the sky....

As a band of soldiers began to move on the Jedi's position there came a sudden hiss snap of a Stohkli Stick. In an instant the entire squad of men lay stuck to the floor and out cold under a sticky net.
Solms rounded a corner, His Stohkli up and aimed at the Jedi in case of renewed hostility.
"You're too late Jedi. Drako has fled and has taken his fleet with him. Your whole crusade for him has come to naught. In addition, my Ship's detecting a large unknown fleet enroute here to Geonosis. They are definately not Republic Allied craft, more likely one of Drako's numerous enemies seeking to finish him off. They will be here within the Next thirty minutes. And if you value your lives, you probably shouldn't Tarry."
Solms nodded to the jedi and then resumed his hunt for an escape craft.

"Just like Drako." Mordranna said, shaking her head, deactivating her saber. "Well, what are we waiting for?"
With that, she ran as fast as she could go, giving herself a boost with the Force. As she did so, she keyed in a command code to the Prinny Hawk. "Whistling up my steed," she chuckled. "You should do the same,"
(( FP: might I humbly suggest boogeying outta here? ))
