The tale of the brotherhood
Chapter eight: Freedom at last
"Good work mister prison governor," Raset said sarcastically at the guard pointing the blaster at him. "That is the prison governor?" Karrk asked. Raset nodded. The prison governor shifted the position of his blaster as he moved closer. This was a mistake. When near enough, Karrk jumped at him. "Hey!" the prison governor shouted, and fired the blaster, but missed. Raset pulled a blaster and pointed it at the prison governor. "Now," Raset said. "I've watched you kill one of my friends, and this place has killed two others. I've had enough and we are going out of this place, to get who got us here and got our friends dead. I know that I will get what I want from your computer. So if you'd be so kind you could tell me those passwords, and I will anyway drag you after us, for you're far too smart not to lie. Now, let us go. Get up and start walking," the governor rose slowly, and started walking. Karrk and Raset followed.
The trip to the governor's office went without surprises. The governor opened the door and went to his computer. He entered a few words, then let Raset to work on it. Karrk pulled a blaster to the governor's face. "You can forget what we say or you can die," Karrk growled. "Who? I was here alone," the governor said. "Good," Karrk congratulated. He sat down, but kept the blaster aimed at the governor's face. Raset worked long. "I got something. It's from the news ten years ago. Listen to this; last week had a woeful day, for the much respected wise one, leader of the elusive reptile brotherhood, was murdered by four members of the brotherhood. The council of the brotherhood mourns, but we received a comment: "It was unexpected that our own would like to kill the wise one. We are sending a committee to the temple on Naboo. That is where the murderers were from." This comment was given by a member of the council. We also were informed of what happened by a republic diplomat Harn Jarryn. Without this man, the murderers might've gotten away. The rest is useless," Raset read. Karrk remembered Teela's words. "The diplomat smiled as if he had won," Karrk thought aloud. "What?" Raset asked. "That's what Teela once said. We must find the diplomat, Harn Jarryn," Karrk said. "I see. He must've been hired. By the same person who killed the wise one," Raset agreed. "What?" the governor asked. "Shut up!" Karrk and Raset shouted at the same time. The governor shut up. Karrk yawned softly after, and the governor tried to move a little towards the intercom. "I wouldn't go there," Karrk said. The governor ran back to Karrk. "I found a file concerning the investigation of the death. The rifle is a rare model, found only from the material found on Rodia. The dart is a custom one. The poison couldn't be recognized, but we found traces of cellular structure found much on Rodia. No more investigations were made, as all results were dead ends," Raset read from the screen. "So to Rodia it is then," Karrk said. Raset nodded and recorded the data to a small datapad. Karrk turned to the governor. "Now, if you'd be so kind, you'll show us to a vehicle that will get us to the nearest decent city," Karrk said, and they left.
In the courtyard, governor showed them to a vehicle, but at the same time a huge group of guards stumbled upon them. "Governor!" one of them shouted. "Don't! They'll shoot me!" the governor shouted. Karrk and Raset climbed inside the small fighter. "Governor," Karrk said. "What now?" the governor asked. "All of your credits," Karrk requested. "What?" the governor shouted. "It would be unhealthy not to give them," Karrk said pleasantly. The governor mumbled something, but gave a pouch to Karrk. Karrk thanked him, then closed the cockpit. "Shoot them!" the governor shouted to his guards, but Raset had already blasted off.
