It had taken Vader several hours to pick himself up from where he had lain at the 
foot of the staircase of the Emperor's throne. He then began to slowly make his way back 
to his own castle while taking secret passages. 

When he got to the castle he had laid himself down in his room, which held a special 
atmosphere to allow him to move around without that dreaded helmet on him. He hadn't 
bother with taking off the helmet or even turn on the light. He had fallen straight on 
his "bed" and put himself in a deep healing-trance. 

Now he was able to move again, though he was still sore and exhausted. He would need more 
time in a healing trance but there were things to be done and quickly. 

After he had searched his private office for bugs and other surveillance devices, he 
called Wenga Jixon on his secured holo-net. He ordered his most trusted agent and more 
important, independent of the Empire, to report to his office at once. 

Lord Vader chose to take the time he had until Jix arrived to go into a light meditation. 
He would ask the Force about the trust-worthiness of Dor Gadell. 

He was brought out of the meditation when Jix rushing into the room without doing so much 
as a knock to announce himself. But the Dark Lord was most satisfied about the guidance 
the Force has given to him. Vader was about to reprimand Jix for his ill behavior but 
thought better of it. He was in no mood to get into a banter session with the Corellian. 

That indeed got his agent's interest to the matter at hand, more than any other thing 
could possible do. When the Sith Lord didn't act as predicted by Jix, than matters must 
be most important and sincere. 

The Corellian put his grin of his face and asked Vader: 

" Okay, tell me. In what kind of trouble are you in now?" 




Note: For those of you who don't know Jix, here is a short explanation.

EDIT: Cut and pasted from TF.N's unofficial encyclopedia 

Jixton, Wrenga 
this Corellian underworld figure was known for his resourcefulness and his ruthlessness. 
A former Imperial Gunnery Sergeant known to his comrades a Jix, he was part of the task 
force that was sent to Falleen to accompany Darth Vader's experiment there. After the 
experiment failed, Jixton was court-martialled and sent to Kessel, but he quickly escaped 
from the prison complex and became a mercenary. He again encountered Vader several years 
later on the planet Aridus, where he had been hiding from the Empire. During this time, 
Jix had befriended the native Chubbits. When Vader was nearly killed in the explosion of 
the Iron Tower, Jix found him and would have killed the Dark Lord in revenge, but decided 
against it rather than risk the wrath of the Empire. Jix loaded Vader's body onto a 
starship and set out to deliver him, but Vader awoke and realized the situation. 
He offered Jix the chance to return to Aridus without fear of Imperial pursuit if he 
agreed to do whatever the Dark Lord needed. Jix was forced to agree to the deal, and he 
became an effective agent of Vader's. In this capacity, Jix exposed the liaison between 
Frija and Admiral Droon. Jix was later infiltrated into Jabba the Hutt's organization 
following the Dark Lord's failure to capture Luke Skywalker on Cloud City. 
Vader instructed Jix to become one of Jabba's swoop gang members, and to capture Luke 
when he arrived on Tatooine to plan the rescue of Han Solo. Jix nearly captured Luke in a 
swoop race through Beggar's Canyon, but Dash Rendar was able to disrupt his plans and get 
Luke free of the swoop gang. 


And as you already noticed he is very sure of himself and a typical Corellian. 
He has a big and lose mouth to say at least.
