An Admiral's Tale - Chapter 4

Bloodshed

I entered the transportation shuttle to be taken onto the surface of Manaan, my mind still wondered about what Revan and Bastila ended up talking about, could it be part of the plan? Canderous was sitting beside me, he had a smirk on his face and was brandishing his blasters carefully, he leaned over and asked me "So, what do you think about this mission?" I just glared at him. "Sounds good. Go in, get information, get out." I replied as I carried on glaring at the Mandalorian, Canderous just laughed softly, I wanted to kill him for the past few days and I was hoping I would get my chance on Manaan.
I leaned over to whisper to him "But if you pull one funny stunt on me, I'm going to make sure I rip your tongue out and blast your ears off." It was a cruel, heartless comment from me but I truly wanted to do that with the anger burning up inside of me. He shrugged at me and whispered back "I could still make Revan beg for my manly passions" I turned around and pointed a blaster to his head, did he know about the deal me and Revan had with each other? My finger trembled on the trigger and he raised his arms up, smirking at me. I knew if I killed him, I'd be branded a traitor, Revan would deal with me personally and I'd never get the chance to change her. What use is the only person that's making her think twice when he's dead?
"You should TREAT Revan with respect." I snarled at him, I grit my teeth again and he pushed the blaster out of my hand. The blaster rattled and clanged on the floor. I stood there staring at him, intently.
"Uh.. Sir, We're here on Manaan" A sith pilot informed me and Canderous, our glares still met one anothers, we wanted each others blood and I knew sooner or later one of us would be the victor.

I was dressed in plain clothes so that I could fit into the Cantina without anyone being suspicious of me, I scanned around, plenty of Republic soldiers in here that I could try and get information from. I went up to the bar and decided to order some of the local stuff, it was handed to me and I was sipping it graciously. "Hey.. You.." Came a voice from behind me, I just sighed under my breath. "What do you want punk?" I replied, keeping my back to them. I felt a tap on my shoulder, "I'm talking to YOU." The drunk said to me.
"Just what I needed.." I muttered under my breath, I turned around and was greeted by a Republic uniform. "WE don't LIKE your kind in here." I just glared at him and started to laugh, "Shut up, scum!" I yelled at him as I clenched my fist tightly. I gave him a right hook across the jaw, he fell on the floor like a ton of bricks, he was out cold. Suddenly all eyes were focused on me in the Cantina. Canderous ran over to me. "What the hell do you think you're doing?" He asked me, I shrugged at him and smirked "You want some too, old man?" Came my daring reply.
"Later.. Yes. Now.. No. Get on with the mission or you're going to break our cover." Canderous whispered, infuriated at me. I shrugged and returned to my drink, Canderous walked away.
*Tap*. "Not again..." I muttered under my breath. *Tap.. Tap* "Look. I came in here to enjoy my drink, not to be bothered by-" I turned around to see who it was. I was greeted by a handsome man and my jaw dropped in surprise, I knew him... Very well...
