The Twi'Lek, the species of beauty as most people would call it. But not only beauty, but of power and underestimation. But they have been used as slaves, for sex, and have been used only the intent of pleasure by men. It disgusts me to think of the species mainly known for this reason. I do not care what they are used for; I am here to tell you the story of how I saved a slave from the life she was into a more suitable one. As I was getting more food and other supplies for my ship I remember seeing a glimpse of red out of the corner of my eye. Turning to see a Lethan slave, the poor girl. Rough, ripped up clothing, bruised skin from all the skin that was seen, practically more purple than red. As people began to notice her they began to yell out at her and through trash at her. I saw a man throw a rock at her, I couldn't take it anymore. Quickly taking my pistol out of the holster, its cold metal handle meeting my hand tightly as I squeezed the trigger shooting the rock. A man came running outside of a Cantina not far from the girls location seeing the Lethan and ran towards her grabbing her arm suddenly and pulling over to him locking himself in a defensive stance. She winced and exhaled sharply from this…this was more than likely her owner. I quickly ran over and the Lethan women looked at me with a sly smirk on her face, she had something up her sleeve that she did not want to show. Her owner on the other hand glared at me before sighing and rolling his eyes. "No I do not want any sort of deal no matter how many credits you have" Assuming that I was going to try and buy her from him which was quite insulting to me as I am not one who buys slaves. "I was going to ask if everything was alright sir. Since I just saved your sex puppet from a rock that could've killed her." I could feel the venom in my voice as I said this; he gave me a devilish glare as he didn't like the word sex puppet it seemed "What makes you think that you could keep a beauty like her alive huh?" He asked me this with an intent of that being his last sentence to say to me before putting a hole in my chest since he was reaching for his holster. "You really think that's a good idea?" I said quickly as I already had my pistol out of my holster aimed at him.
He froze looking down at my pistol as I cocked the pistol now ready to fire "He beat me to it, lucky bastard" He mumbled to himself chuckling as well, He slowly put his hands behind his head and sat down on the steps to the cantina. The Twi'Lek didn't follow what he had done and continued to stand up next to the man. "If you seem to know how to take care of a Lethan why is she treated this way. She's more purple and blue than red! "The Twi'Lek seemed a little frightened by the sudden tone change in my voice and stood back against the wall, though her owner stood up and grabbed me by the scruff of my shirt and raised his fist at me ready to knock me out. I squeezed the trigger of my pistol and the recoil of it made it fall out of my hand as I was not able to hold it the correct way. But that soon changed as he dropped me yelling out in pain holding his arm. The girl was now bunched up in the corner hiding covering her face. I rolled my eyes at the man as I kicked my pistol back into my hand and gripped it tightly. The familiar metal handle made me smile as I squeezed the trigger again aiming at the owner. A round hole appeared in his head with a gunshot echoing throughout the area, his body dropped down to the ground instantly as I had done this. I slowly walked over to the Lethan girl who was still in the corner near the steps. "H-hey, come on. I am no threat to you." I said as politely as possible as I held my hand out to her. At first she flinched at the sight of my hand more than likely thinking I was going to hit her in some shape or form, I couldn't blame her since I did just kill her owner. But I stayed there, not wanting to hit her in any shape or form.
She raised her head slightly and looked into my eyes before slowly holding her hand out and grabbing mine helping her up. We slowly walked to my ship without interruption, though people couldn't stop staring at her and the sound of multiple people talking throughout the market. She was stunning don't get me wrong there like most Twi'Lek you see, but she seemed so different from most I have seen and talked to. I just couldn't figure out why, that wasn't important though. What was important was trying to get her some necessities of life. As we entered my ship she looked around checking the place out as I had shut the entrance to the ship. The lights throughout the inside of the ship turned on showing the clean living area of the bottom of my ship. I chuckled lightly I had watched her before going to the kitchen and getting her some food and some water. She sat down at the table slowly and looked around the kitchen that we were both in. She seemed to be still slightly weary of the area around us. As I placed the Blanca steak and fresh water in front of her eyes widened and looked at me surprised. "T-thank you sir, I don-don't think you would need to spoil me like this."
I smirked slightly at the sound of her knowing basic "Seems like you know my language, and do not worry if I spoil you or not. You need to eat. You seem to not have eaten in a few days. "I said as I sat down across from her as she began eating using the utensils on the plate. I was surprised she actually knew how to use these utensils, but I wasn't going to question it at this moment in time. She began to eat quickly as I did; I also hadn't had a meal in the last few days since I hadn't gotten around to making myself anything to eat since I was so busy. Seeing this girl in front of me made me second guess my thoughts about 2 weeks ago of me dying soon though it was inevitable. "Eat up; you have a long day ahead of you." I said as I put my plate away along with the flask that I had my water in.
