Hi!
Sorry it took me so long to update. Um, Ava is in this and so is Terry and Jarik.
It takes place about two weeks later.
I love this chapter!
Enjoy!

Ava
~*~
A bounty hunter sat in an all but empty cantina. Her blue and blonde hair wisped her face and shoulders partly hiding her multiple scars. Her right cold blue eye scanned the cantina, waiting, while her left brown one was fixed on the black liquid in front of her. Black meant only one thing to the other occupants of the small, dimly lighted building, she had business to do and she was to be left alone. Another thing that might have left her undisturbed was the crossbow slung on her back, the blaster on her hip, a lightsaber clipped on her belt, and a evil gleam in her ever searching blue eye. The hunter's brown boots were propped on her table unconcerned. She wore a black tunic over brown shorts with white leggings underneath. Her brown robe was draped over her shoulders, another casual sign and yet another reason to keep away. The robe was held around her neck by a spiked chain, each spike, a poison dart launched at a single glare of her deadly blue eye. Her black gauntlets reached to grab the black drink in front of her. She was growing impatient but a favor kept her from moving. A single favor bided her to her promise, so she waited. She didn't know why she was even here, but the Codes kept her here, probably even more than her promise. For the Codes could kill and it was against them to refuse to pay for a favor. Oh, how she hated the Codes, and favors even more. They always seemed to be against her.
A sudden movement caught her right eye's gaze, and this time, her left followed. He was finally here. Him and another, a woman with long black hair and evil green eyes. A lightsaber hung at her hip also and she appeared to know how to use it. She wore a black jumpsuit, suggesting she was a pilot, and she had an unfaltering determination in the way she moved, suggesting was good. The hunter assumed she was backup. Ava De Longe didn't take backup.
Jarik
~*~
Jarik walked over to the booth were Ava was sitting. Time was running out, he was forced to use his best favors. He had thousands at his disposal, yet the tracks had changed and so must the trackers. Ava took her feet off the table and he and Terry took a seat. At last he had found two who met the criteria, yet contradicted each other completely. The only two things they had in common were their lightsabers and their eyes, both able to cut through flesh in a single glance. They'd make a wonderful, though unwilling, team. This mission must be performed perfectly. For now the stakes couldn't be higher.
Terry
~*~
Three hours until the ship took off, and Terry was already sitting in the cockpit. This would be the most dangerous mission she had ever been on and she wasn't being paid a credit. Favors worked that way. She ran the cantina meeting through her head for the third time. She had missed something, important. What was it?
"I don't take partners," Ava stated again. "I work alone." " I'm afraid you don't have a choice on this mission." Ava tried to speak again but Jarik went on," You owe me Ava", he glanced at Terry," and so do you. Your preferences don't matter to the Codes, or me." There was a moment of silent glaring. " The mission is simple, find this girl, " he slid them both holo pads of a young woman with short blonde hair" and bring her to me, unharmed. I will then cancel the favor. Understood?" He was met with only silence. He waited a minute more. "Good, the information is in the holo pad and you leave in four hours." He rose to leave then suddenly stopped," oh, and you must both come back, alive." Ava growled and Jarik walked out. "Some mission", she mumbled. Terry scanned the holo pad. "Sith, heavy guarded base, ultra-red tracker torpedo systems... fun." Ava grabbed her pad, scanned it and stood up." Four hours hanger bay," she started walking out. About ten yards away she mumbled, " and I work alone." Terry heard and muttered in return," and I will not be left behind...."
Terry then realized something. She quickly took out the holo pad and looked in a place she usually didn't care about. Under 'Name of 'she found what she was looking for. 'Marian', it said under the floating holo. No last name. They were tracking Jarik's sister, missing for two weeks with no trace, no lead. But they had the information, which was somehow not surprising. Jarik had too many connections to not know. He wasn't the only one looking for her. It was rumored jedi and Masker's Club was after her too. Suddenly realization dawned on her, if the mission didn't succeed...not only would they not be free of the favors, but they would also be in personal trouble with a very powerful man. If they survived at all.
Blaster fire suddenly ripped outside. Terry turned on the engine, flipped on the shields and sighed. The mission would begin early. Terry heard someone running up the ramp. She closed the door and took off. Once in space Ava plopped down in the seat beside her. With a glance at her Terry raised an eye brow and asked, "Trouble?" Ava didn't respond but took off her holed robe and worked at cleaning out a cut on her arm, another scar to add to her collection. After a while she stood up and muttered," Troopers." She walked out but turned and said curtly, "I work alone." Terry looked her in her multicolored eyes and stated, "And I will not be left behind."

Every one read "Warp" by The Katt and My other star wars story though it's a little... strange.
