Prologue

He had his sights aimed at his target.

His breathing slowed down, as he prepared to take the shot.

He had been trailing his target for a number of months now waiting for the right opportunity to strike. An opportunity when his target felt he was safe. When he let his guard down for just the slightest moment. That moment was now.

Just a few hundred feet away, his target stood, speaking to one of the market vendors, probably looking to buy something. He didn't really care what he was doing. All he knew was that he deserved to die.

He took the shot.

The bullet soaring through the air. He could hear the wind whishing as the bullet zoomed toward its intended target.

The bullet reached its destination, striking the target in the forehead.

He watched as the body slunk to the ground.

His job here was done.

Onlookers ran over to see what had happened.

Shock and fear filled their eyes and showed on their faces. But they didn't know why he had been killed. But they would soon find out.

The local authorities would look into it and find out the man who had been killed was a criminal.

He had been a Red Sand dealer for the Eclipse mercenaries on Illium. An employee of a volus name Pitne For, who had been arrested a few months back for red sand smuggling. However, his associates and employees continued the operation without him, probably being led by a new boss.

He was now aimed to find out who that was and his kill here would lead him closer to finding him.

The local authorities would help in a way with their own "investigation" into the matter. Of course they wouldn't find anything linking him to the assassination, but at least they would come up with a few names he could use.

Names of course didn't matter to him, a target was a target, but in order to find these targets he needed names.

Criminals were all the same, no matter they be cat burglars or mass murderers, and they all needed to be brought to justice. Some deserved to die, while others sent to prison. That was his job. Take down the criminal underworld one criminal at a time if necessary. He was…..a Spectre.
