Hi, hope you like this chapter.
Chapter 5- A Guy Walks Into A Bar
Yaeb, Jayge, and the ten Galia soldiers sat around a synthetic fire. It gave the heat and look of regular fire, but it gave no smoke and its lighting was limited to a five meter radius. Six of the soldiers were humans, and the others consisted of a wookie, a rodian, a gand, and a gran. Yaeb was changed into a fresh set of black and green camouflage, as were the rest of the group. He was laughing as he told the group a joke with a gizzer ale in his hand, " Okay, a guy walks into a bar on one of the upper levels of Coruscant. He sees a guy jump out the window and, a few seconds later, come through the window the way he left. He does this a few more times. Then, the guy thinks, ' Hey, since this normal looking guy can jump out of a tall building and fly back in, why can't I do it?' The guy jumps out of the window and splats on the permacrete below. The bartender goes to the original jumper and says, ' You know, Superman, you can really be a jerk sometimes.'" The group exploded into laughter. Not that the joke was all that funny, but that it was the first joke that any of them had heard in a while. After the group had died down, Jayge decided to get serious for a moment, " Yaeb, it's great having you around, but why did you come here at all. I know the Jedi wouldn't send the guy who took down the warship at Bespin to Galia to take down a few Peace Brigade outposts." Yaeb answered, " The thing at Bespin wasn't all it's made out to be. I just got a few lucky shots in. The real reason I chose to go here, not sent, was because my father, Devvon Ginn, left me a message before he and mom left in their Star Destroyer. I came to retrieve that message because it tells me something I probably need to know. All my dad told me before he left was that it was important. I'm just going to knock out some outposts along the way. It'll be hard, but that's ok. I'll manage." " Hey, you don't have to just manage," Hreed, the rodian, spoke up, " Jayge will probably agree that since hurting the enemy is our job, we can send some other group to knock out the outposts, and we can come with you to get that message." Several members of the group protested. They didn't really know much about Yaeb and their oath was to help the Resistance, not some young Jedi that needs a little message from his daddy. Jayge declared a vote and the side in favor of helping Yaeb lost. Jayge had an idea, " Ok, since most of you don't want to go, Davak and I will go with Yaeb, while you and Davak's group go and knock out the outposts. None of us will have any hard feelings for you people that don't want to help Yaeb. If I didn't know him, I wouldn't help him either. In the morning, I'll call Davak and his group and we'll be set to go." The group readily agreed. Then Jayge grabbed Yaeb's arm. " Hey, I don't swing that way," Yaeb said, a little freaked out. " No, I have to take you to one of our hideouts to get you better suited for this job. Haheh." " Oh, ok."
