A/N – Yes there is a planet called Thanos, I didn't even intentionally use it, I found it when researching Togoria which is in the Thanos system as well, the story is set in the Galactic Republic well before the Clone Wars. It's a different version of certain events that happened to the Togorians to do with Trade, but that is the only similarity that it takes to the legend's story

A/N 2 – This is based on planets and species from Legends

A/N 3 – Realised some may think this is some old republic version of the prequels, it's not really about the trade at all, just drives the character's motivations

Chapter 1

Thamzu Kitt looked down at the ground, head in hands as he realised what had just happened. First, he had been banished from his home planet and then had lost his new life due to his foolish actions.

Thamzu Kitt was a Togorian, standing three metres tall, with grey-white striped fur coating his body, he had a solid build and could intimidate some of the most ferocious space pirates purely based on the fact his dense bones meant he was more resistant to blaster wounds.

He wore blue and white Mandalorian armour that bulked his body out even more, showing pronounced shoulders that could throw a man 10 metres. There was a deep slash on the armour reaching down the right shoulder from a vibroweapon which he was lucky to escape from with his life.

He bore a resigned, battle-hardened air and spoke only when necessary with a harsh, scalding, raspy voice. He had a negative outlook on life which, combined with a short temper, led to intense spates of violence over the most minor issues, leaving him with far more enemies than friends.

He glanced over to Cho'ree, who was working on one of the gauntlet fighter's hyperdrive. Cho'ree was a Pho Ph'eahian who had left their home planet to work as a mechanic for the Mandalorians 2 years ago. Her bright blue fur made her blend into the ship's interior as her four arms worked away reconnecting pipes and wires.

She hummed gregariously as she set about her work skilfully, Cho'ree was an esteemed mechanic who only worked on the most important of jobs, which their current job was.

Thamzu spoke in his deep, low voice, "How's the hyperdrive Cho'ree, we need to leave soon, they're scheduled on a flight out of the Thanos System tomorrow."

"Hold on, just give me a minute, the hyperdrive motivator isn't quite working properly, it might not take us out of hyperspace quick enough and then it'll be us instead of our targets who can't say anything, ok it's ready now, I'll set up the jump."

Cho'ree took her seat next to Thamzu, and pulled the lever for their jump, the blue tunnel of hyperspace rushed past them and they were both pinned back on their seats as their faulty shields allowed a tiny amount of g-force through them. They left hyperspace and flew towards the atmosphere of Thanos, Thamzu radioed into the landing bays they were heading for, requesting permission to land.

The ship touched down on the landing bay, "Pretend it was just you on the ship, I'll back within the hour,"

Thamzu slunk out the ship, blaster in his holster, a grim expression painting his face. He knew what his mission was, find the people, kill them, collect the payment and go home. But there was one problem, did he want to hush up a rich autocrat's illegal work, he was used to threatening space pirates, not killing innocent Togorians who had decided to leave their home planet.

He arrived at his destination and saw the people he must fight…
