Chapter 5
Cara POV
I flew my ship to Tatooine. Gritting my teeth I swore to never do this again. With a rough landing, I crashed into Greef Karga's station. There was no one there. Yet I could tell that people were hiding somewhere. As I walked the empty streets, a figure snagged me and dragged me deep into a hole. I yelped and kicked at the thing that, rather surprisingly, cried out and said in a familiar voice,
" Dank Farrik Cara! Quit it already! That hurts!"
I stopped immediately. Greef Karga rubbed his jaw where a purplish bruise was starting to form. I snorted in disgust,
" That's what you get for grabbing me."
He looked at me with that look on his face.
" If I hadn't grabbed you the troopers would have gotten you."
It was my turn to look at him weirdly.
" Troopers? Uh Karga? Last time I checked, the Republic was the one ruling most of the galaxy now."
He shook his head
" Not those troopers, I mean they look the same and act the same but they all are already dead."
I was in shock. I stood there for a moment before saying cautiously,
" Like brainworms already dead Or Zombies already dead."
He shrugged,
" A little bit of both. I mean, they all seem to be controlled by one person, an invisible head honcho but their movements aren't always precise. However, they are always very strong."
We stood in silence for several moments before Karga said
" We need help. But the only man that I know can help has been missing for 12 years"
I shrugged,
" Then we just find him and force him to help."
Greef Karga shook his head.
" Just one problem."
I looked at him.
" What problem?"
He looked up meeting my gaze.
" He might not want to be 'Mando' anymore."
I took a breath before saying,
" Let's just focus on finding him first."

Sorry for the wait lately! I haven't had much time to write and I was considering starting a different story for some time. Any way, I hope this makes up for it :).
