The Opportunity

by TsunamiWolf

Ahsoka and Nyx are contacted by an employer that wants to meet with them, in person. They go on a strange adventure, a fantasy even. It's so perfect, it can't possibly be real, so. Can the person hiring them be trusted? Or is this an elaborate trick? And why is Ahsoka feeling weird when certain people are around. Everything is written in Ahsoka's point of view.

Chapter 1

"Hey Ahsoka! Come here!", shouted Nyx, pulling me from my thoughts.

"Coming!", I said, walking towards the living room. It was Saturday and Nyx was looking to see if we had any jobs.

"What do you need good sir?", I said jokingly.

"We got a job from a very interesting employer", he said.

"Oh really? Mind telling me who it is?", I asked him.

"It's someone called 'Bluetim'. He wants us to meet him at the 'Potridge Cantina'. Do you know where that is?", said Nyx.

Sadly, I do know. Potridge Cantina is one of the bars where Bounty Hunters usually go. Ventress told me about it, in case I decided to become a bounty hunter at some point in my life.

I don't like this, I don't want to run into a dangerous bounty hunter I might know.

"I've heard of the place, but I've not gone there", I told him. "What is he asking for?". I mean, I don't want to go there, but I might as well know what this guy wants.

Nyx turned back to the holopad and answered after a minute, "He's heard of us and wants to see if we could strike a deal with him".

"Sounds suspicious", I said. "C'mon 'Soka, this could be a good opportunity for us. We wouldn't have to search for bounties anymore", he said.

He has a good point, but I don't want to go down there. I start walking around the room. Maybe I could just cover myself more carefully, maybe even wear a mask. Yeah, I guess that could work, then using the force I could sense this persons intentions.

No! No force, I've been doing good so far… but if he's suspicious I could make an exception. Maybe…

I stop pacing and look towards Nyx and ask, "When are we meeting this guy?".

"Tomorrow night at 10pm", he answered.

"Then we should finish that speeder until then", I said.

It was 9:30 pm and we were about to leave towards the cantina.

I convinced Nyx that we should wear masks. I had found one in the security room that was a little big for me, but covered my whole face. Meanwhile, Nyx had a mask that only covered his face up to his nose.

"Are you sure you want to do this?"; I asked Nyx.

"Of course, now lets go meet this 'Bluetim' ", he said, heading outside.

I followed him, still unsure about the whole situation.

I have a weird feeling that I should hide my force signature. It's strange and I don't know why, but I'm going to trust it, I guess.

A/N: So, I finished this quicker than I thought. Enjoy. Feel free to leave a review.

Have a nice day! :)
