Hey-yall! It's the next chapter! (I see you are all taking the Dengar/Sugi shipping well. Don't worry, there's more in this chapter too!)
Disclaimer: I don't own Star wars.
The bounty hunters decided to go to the cantina to think out their next move.
"HA! I found it!" Ardus yelled in excitement. They had asked him to see if the Jedi or the Republic was offering any rewards for the capture of Sith.
"What does it say?" Latts asked.
"They are offering," He started, smiling with a dramatic pause. ",1,000,000 credits for the capture of one Sith."
"Holy Sith!" Dengar joked, earning himself an elbow to the ribs from Latts.
"Well, that tops our other bounty that got us into this mess." Embo stated, scratching Marrok's ear.
"Talk about making up for it!" Latts smirked.
"Yeah, now we just need to capture the Sith." Sugi reminded. Just then, a meaty hand grabbed Latts by the throat and slammed her into the wall. Apparently someone hadn't liked their conversation…
"Setad, what are you doing here?" Ardus asked, standing up from the table. Latts coughed from the man's grip on her throat.
"I'd ask you the same thing, conspirator!" Setad spat at his old colleague.
"Put her down and you might walk out of this alive." Dengar said, standing up and pointing his blaster at Setad's head.
"Our master's not gonna be pleased to hear about your conversation, Lupei." Setad threatened. In one swift movement, Dengar punched Setad's elbow, breaking it, and causing him to drop Latts. She coughed a bit, getting air back into her lungs. He then pointed his blaster at the crumpled form of Setad on the floor.
"Where is the Sith?" He asked.
"In his mansion on Coruscant." Setad growled.
"Good." Dengar said, firing his blaster. He turned back to the group. "We know where he is now! What?" He asked after seeing Sugi's disturbed face.
"He was unarmed, you didn't have to shoot him!" She said angrily.
"He was just gonna crawl back to his master and tell him about us!" Dengar defended.
"I, for one, agree with Sugi." Embo stated. Dengar shot him a glare.
"We aren't murderers, we're bounty hunters." Sugi stated.
"Fine, I won't do it again." Dengar sighed.
"Well, we still need to plan so-" Latts interrupted, sensing the tension in the air.
"Well, they're gonna notice once Setad doesn't come back that something's up." Ardus said.
"We could break in at night. We know where the place is. It'll be easy." Embo suggested.
"Yeah, then we could sneak in and get him while he's sleeping. You know, give him a couple of stun shots, drag him to the Jedi, Republic, or whoever and collect bounty." Latts explained.
"It's not going to be that easy." Sugi stated.
"Do we know if he even goes to sleep?" Dengar asked Ardus.
"Yeah, but really late." He answered.
"Speaking of sleep," Latts yawned. ", We should probably be getting back to the hotel room so we can sleep."
"I canceled our reservation there." Ardus stated, matter-of-factly.
"What?!" Everyone gasped.
"Well, they knew we were there so I figured we should find a new place." He explained.
"Fine." Sugi said, standing up. "Let's go look for another place to stay."
The group walked down the permacrete walkways of the Coruscant under levels, looking for a reasonable hotel. Dengar was walking next to Embo and Ardus behind Latts and Sugi, who were leading the search. He glanced at Sugi's walking figure. She was quite alluring for a bounty huntress. Most female bounty hunters were not very attractive and they didn't seem to really care how they looked. Sugi, and Latts for that matter, had a way of carrying themselves that was attractive in it's own right. Latts, too, was also quite tantalizing. He shook off the thoughts. These were his bounty hunting partners he was thinking about. Maybe it was just his inner Correlian fancy for attractive girls.
"This looks good." Sugi gestured to a building, snapping Dengar out of his thoughts. She was mainly talking to Latts, who nodded in agreement with her choice.
They walked into the hotel, if one could even call it that. There was a Weequay at the reception desk. He wore a name tag that read 'Scuzz' and looked as rough as the hotel. Plastered on the walls were various posters of scantly clad women of all different species. There were two torn up couches in one corner with a table between them. The Weequay looked up as they walked over to the desk. Ardus pushed his way to the front of the group.
"We'd like to rent a room." He stated.
"Sure thing kid." The receptionist named Scuzz said with a sketchy smile.
How creepy! Hope you enjoyed (told ya there'd be more Dengar/Sugi!) Please review!
