Introduction: The story draws to a close in this chapter, but there will be a follow up in my novelization of the Lucasarts Playstation 2 and Gamecube video game Star Wars: Bounty Hunter, so it's not over yet.

Chapter 17: Redemption
"Get back to work you slacker!" Shouted a large muscular human who then kicked Jango who was practicly wearing rags. Jango fell onto the dirt and dropped the minerals he was carrying. Jango knew he had to get out of this hell, he got up while he picked up his fallen minerals, he then continued along his previous path. The rest of the day went by quickly to Jango's relief, tomorrow he would get out of here; after two long miserable years of endless work, pain, and regaining his strength he would escape this torture and seek vengance upon his captors.
Jango was already up by the time the door to his cell opened, hidden in the corner he glared at the entering guard. He held this off long enough, it was now or never. He snuck up behind the brown cloth dressed guard who was walking over to the empty prison bed and bashed him hard in the back of the head. The guard fell to the ground dropping his blaster rifle. Jango picked it up and held on to it tightly, it was a while since he held any form of weapon. Jango ran out of the cell and looked around quickly for any other guards, seeing none he ran torwards the exit. "What the!?" A lone guard defending the exit said.
Jango shot him before he could do anything and exited the detention block. Listening he heard footsteps hitting the metallic floor nearby, he quickly looked up to see a metal grating, he fired a blaster shot blowing the grating open and climbed in, the footsteps became more rapid and two guards appeared and looked into the grating. "I think we have an escapee on our hands, sound the alarm!" One of the guards shouted.
Jango crawled through the vents as an alarm suddenly began to sound, they knew someone escaped and now everyone knew. He crawled faster to see daylight at the end of the ventilation shaft, he fired a shot at the grating and it blew open. He looked down, it looked safe enough so he crawled out of the shaft and leaped down to the street alley. 'I've got to find the Governor's mansion!' Jango thought to himself.
It was early morning, not too many people wandered the streets this early, Jango quickly ran down the streets, looking behind himself he saw guards storming out of the Detention Center. The tall white buildings cast a dark shadow onto the streets during sun rise. Jango saw a large building up ahead that looked like where his Governor friend would be living.
Jango climbed a tree next to a stone wall surrounding the mansion perimiter and jumped over the wall landing on some grass with a loud thud. He quietly traversed the outter perimiter and climbed the mansion walls by plantlife growing on it. He jumped into the mansion through a window he found open while climbing, he then exited the room and began hunting for the Governor.
Governor Vion, who just got up from a deep sleep was gathering some clothes he thought he would wear today. As he was doing this the door to his room hissed open. "What, who dares to enter-" Vion said turning around to face Jango. "You!" Vion managed to squeak out while panicking.
"You owe me a lot of payback Governor, and I plan on taking my payment with your life." Jango said, as he finished he walked over to the Governor and punched him in the face. The Governor fell on to the ground face first. As he was trying to get up Jango kicked him down again. He crawled over to the window and sat up, looking at Jango he asked "What do you want Fett!?"
"My armor, my ship, my retribution." Jango said as he aimed his blaster at the Governor and fired. Jango then looked around the room for a key card to enter Vion's little museum and hit the jackpot when he looked on his corpse. Taking the card he ran downstairs past the panicking servants and inserted the key card into a door, inside he saw what rightfully belonged to him...
A few minutes later Jango Fett stood once again wearing his millenium silver armor and holding his two blasters, he boarded Jaster Mereel's old relic and started the engines, aiming the Relic at a wall he fired a couple charged shots blowing a hole in the side of the mansion big enough for the Relic to escape. He fled from Galidraan as fast as he could, he had to think of something, he decided to visit the Mos Eiesley Space Port on the desert world of Tatooine, maybe there in the company of other fugitives he could think of something...
***
It was late noon on Tatooine 'Big Spaceport...' Jango thought to himself as he exited a hangar. The city was large and littered with stone buildings, and sand was everywhere. As he looked onto the crowds Jango thought he saw someone that looked familure 'Could that be? No, it's impossible...' He thought to himself.
After a few more minutes of walking around he heard a deep voice say "Well well, look who it is... Fancy meeting you here Fett."
Jango quickly spun around to face the speaker, Montross... "You! What are you doing here!?"
"Hey, it's a free galaxy isn't it old buddy? I'm here hunting someone, you're lucky I got over my anger torwards you Jango, otherwise I'd kill you right here and now.."
"A bounty hunter!?" Jango said back in a surprised tone.
"As fast as always, it's been a while since I had a good fight with you Fett; but I have work to do. Stay out of my way and I'll let you live, get in my way and there will be no mercy." Montross said, as he finished he walked away a few rags on his back blowing in the wind. Jango remembered his occasional fights with Montross back when they were Mandalores, he never got along with Montross, but like Jaster once said; no one did.
'A bounty hunter, that sounds like a good profession for someone like me...' Jango thought to himself, he knew it would be a tough job but it would help him make a living, after all; he was just a simple man trying to make his way in the harsh universe...
***
Komari Vosa was thought dead by the council, this played right into Count Dooku's hand who resigned from the Jedi Order almost a year ago. His experiment has gone well so far, Vosa would become a powerful ally to him if she was allowed to regain her power, Dooku could have killed her but he chose not to, he saw no reason; everything was going as he planned, or so he thought...
