Neb arrived at the infamous Jabba's Palace. The dank place was known throughout the galaxy, but after Jabba's death few actually cared to see it. The few remaining brain spiders left running and the smell of dead rancor turns most people off.
The massive door, which was normally locked, was no longer operational, and easily opened. He pushed it aside easily, before staring in as the vaccuum of air rushed it to expunge the foul smells from within.
"No wonder this place was infamous. It's not only roomy, but has that nice smell of sweat and blood running amuck."

Inside the cantina, Phoenix walked around examining the various peoples. A blur of various races were present, and Phoenix was not surprised when he saw a booth blocked off and marked with a plaque, stating Site where Han Solo, Hero of the Rebellion, shot the Rodian Greedo .
Chuckling, Phoenix ordered a drink, downed it, flipped a few credits onto the barstool, and left, for the docking bay, where he climbed into the Dawning Thunder and then piloted the space yacht docked within it, [Twilight Dawn towards the Jundland Wastes for a sightseeing tour. Along the way, he flew past the Jedi knight, Obi-Wan Kenobi's hut, Jabba the Hutt's Palace, and finally, tired of the sights, flew back to Ancorhead, where he landed the yacht, and approached the Darklighters' moisture farm, where the NR had told him he was staying.
As he was greeted, showed his room, and eating a delicious dinner, Phoenix could only think about the various things that had gone on here. Here, his Master's grandmother had lived, and died. It was here that his Master, had buried his mother, and began his journey to the Dark Side. It was here, that his Master's son, the Great jedi master Luke Skywalker, had once lived, and it was in Skywalker's own room where he would stay.
With those thoughts in mind, Phoenix dozed off on the bed.

Tssirk heard a faint beep from his waist, and realized that his comlink was trying to catch his attention. He glanced around the smoky cantina and then leaned over to respond.
A series of chirps and whistles came through the tiny speaker, scolding him. He looked down at the chronometer he had on his utility belt, and his retilian eyes widened slightly.
Another chiding whistle.
There was a series of chirps and rude sounding blats, followed by a stream of whistles and beeps. The Trandoshan nodded to himself. Zorro had word from the local channels of work on the other end of town, out near the infamous Cantina.

Sidon speed almost silently behind the other merc. He would get revenge for the insult out of the city if he needed to, unluckily though it wouldn't look like an accident because the merc was at least half-decent and had thoroughly checked the craft before purchasing it. Oh well if he survived he had enough junk from those craft to make quite abit, well enough to keep him drunk for awhile at least.

Cale glanced idily at his sensors as they mapped out the area. it seemed that there was another craft following them."hmm. must be heading for Mos Espa." Cale continued to fly for another few minutes, then something clicked in his head. "wait...is he following us?"
Cale aimed a scan at the trailing craft for its I.D. and found it was a rental unit from the same Lot.
"well well. look who showed up. Mister Famous. well buddy, its been nice knowing you. sadly Im going to have to ditch you out here." Cale dumped energy from the guns into the thrusters and hit the accelerator. the Sky hopper suddenly blasted ahead at break neck speed as the engines pushed it to an incredible speed.
Cale glanced behind him at the rapidly disapearing aircraft."fair skies vapebait."

Angel looked over and saw that Cale was doing something with the craft, and figured out what soon enough. She braced herself for the sudden speed boost moments before the craft suddenly went express. After watching stuff pass by at a much faster rate for a while, Angel said " At this rate, we should be there very soon... right? "

This guy was good, too good. Following he started to push the old piece of rubbish that could only just pass for a craft (In his mind at least) to full speed. HE was starting to near the other two people all of the power had been diverted to the thrusters and Sidon attempted to retrive his gun from it's holster and was ready incase a fire-fight started. HE saw they were heading toward some canyon and got ready for the inevitable race.

"now if memory serves, Beggar's Canyon is right over...HERE." Cale dipped the airspeeder in the maddening labrynth of the Canyon and cut the power drain from the guns, dropping his speed by a few hundred clicks, but still going way too fast for the confined space. "ah, now theres the rush." he mutttered as he accelerated through the maze. he slowed his speed down to better fit the twists and turns of Beggar's Canyon. after maneuvering through several easy turns he glanced at his sensor."Now, lets see if he's half as crazy as I am. with luck he'll back off and find some one else to hassle. if not, then I guess he'll have to learn the hard way."

Well looked like this would be intresting. Lowering the speed slightly Sidon started zooming around the bends in the canyon almost hitiing into the walls at many times. Still that was the point ot get the adrenaline p for a good fight, there was nothing like it. He had done much crazier things in his life, like going through the canyon ar full speed with 5 bounty hunters on his tail. He had beaten them easily and killed them as the came out of the canyon.

"well, well." Cale said."Vape Bait wants to play follow the leader. But he has no Idea who he's messing with. He may be a hot hand with a blaster, but I make my living flying." The outlaw reved the engines and zoomed off down the canyon. he clipped speed as he came around a hairpin turn, applying brakes then thrust, narrowly scrapping the wall and bolting down the corridor. the little craft strained in protest as he pulled the same power slide maneuver at the next hairpin, then he faked going left at a fork, barely pulling off a right turn before dissapearing around a rock outcropping.

The following morning, Phoenix woke up, had a delicious Tatoo fruit for breakfast, bad ethe Darklighters farewell, and climbed into the Twilight Dawn . On his way over to the farm, he had noticed something strange in the DUne Sea. It was only when, flying towards Jabba's Palace, he noticed a landspeeder in front of the Dead Hutt's former glory. Puzzled, he pulled in to investigate, and entered the palace.

Angel wondered why someone would be so bent on getting to them, but became more worried as Cale started going through the Canyon. Before she could notice much else, she nodded off, tired from all that's happened recently.

Checking his scanner after a couple of tricky turns he seemed to have lost the other mercinary. Well he wasn't in sight and once again his scanner had been destroyed by the dust and almost smashing into rocks. Using his mind a saw a small rock outcrop he would have hidden behind if he were in the same position. Lowering speed he almost silently came around the corner before pushing full power intto the thrusters, a manouver which nearly destoryed the htruster, and turned around facing the other two people. "So you want to continue this chase or have a fight?" Sidon asked his blaster outstrecthed pointed at the thrusters but ready to switch to one of the other two people at a moments notice. " I would like very much for you to apologise for your insulting behaviour and would kindly ask for you to let me tag along on any current mission."
