Gacen tumbled into the cell with a hard thud, there was no way throwing him in was necessary he scrambled up as the cells grid flickered to life, Ash better have a plan to get him out. He'd just have to wait it out it wouldn't be so bad this was hardly even a good cell right? well Belsavis wasn't exactly a good prison either and he was in there for years. What if Ash didn't come what if he'd be locked up here until they realised who he was it could happen right? no no no he was being crazy he'd been in jails before this was fine there was always a plan right?

Gacen took some deep breaths come on this wasn't even worth a freakout you're just out of practice, he sat there trying to control his breathing. Where was she? what was taking her so long? how long had it been 1 hour? 2? oh no had it been days? Gacen checked the clock, it'd been about a minute Gacen really need to cool it Ash would be along soon and then they would go find Risha lovely sassy Risha. But what if she didn't want to see him maybe it'd all been one big ruse maybe she'd just been waiting for him to get in trouble once she'd gotten her treasure back. Even if that wasn't true would she have moved on? would she even want him around anymore? he didn't know if he'd still fit into her life. Just as he was about to spiral further he caught himself this cell was doing him no good too much time to think and stress he had to stay focussed.

Gacen noticed that there were three guards staring at him good something to focus on. Gacen walked over to them "can I help you fellas" had to keep cool and collected maybe he could do something with this

the smallest of the three guards spoke up "see I told ya it's totally him it's Gacen Zandar" Gacen's eyes widened please please let this just be a fan

The stocky Guard frowned "so?" maybe there was a chance he could get out of this remember keep cool

"the same Gacen Zandar who has a huge bounty on his head from that Acter valus or whatever" Gacen felt his blood boil of course that fucker had a bounty on him

Gacen shook his head "uh I don't know about this Gacen that's certainly not me" he had to deflect quick think of a name "my name is…" Gacen looked at the surroundings "Crate Nightstick". Gacen's heart sank as he heard the name out loud nice going dumbass.

the guards eyes widened "ok call it in we're gonna be rich that guy gives crazy rewars for his bounties" before the guards could however Gacen saw a shimmer from behind them as Ash appeared and slammed the taller guards heads together. Before the small guard could react she shoved a cloth against his face causing him to soon fall unconscious

Ash turned to Gacen and frowned "Crate Nightstick really?" great she had heard that.

Ash turned of the cells grid throwing a gun Gacen's way "I was on the spot ok" Gacen looked around "uh so what's the plan now" as if to answer an alarm sounded great so much for the subtle approach

Guards began to pour into the room, Ash responded "well we fight" great the thing Gacen was worst at just fantastic.

Ash ran towards the crowd of ten guards in front of them, as she did she drew blaster spraying it at the crowd causing a few to fall to the ground. Gacen stood in awe for a second before realising the brevity of the situation, he fumbled in his pockets finding small spheres joint with thread. He threw them at two guards who looked at them confused soon however they soon wrapped around their arms and legs causing them to flop to the ground, meanwhile Ash had taken out a few more of the guards as one flew past Gacen landing with a crunch. One of the guards caught sight of him and began to run towards him, Gacen stood still poised for his attack he seemed like he was going to try and tackle him. Gacen stayed still until the last moment quickly diving towards the cell controls locking the guard in the cell behind him. Ash slammed her elbow into the last of the guards skulls gesturing for Gacen to follow, Gacen promptly stumbled forwards as they came to the main room of the guard station.

Gacen swallowed hard there were guards everywhere but they just had to get to the door this was gonna be a hell of a play, Gacen threw out a few stun grenades incapacitating most of the guards at least briefly. Ash ran towards a particularly threatening looking guard giving a savage kick to the side of his head, he dropped quickly to the ground as Ash proceeded to knock two more guards to the ground. Gacen looked around the room there was nearly a clear path to the door only a few more guards standing in their way. He had to act fast or the stun grenade would wear off, he let out a few volleys with his blaster but missing nearly every shot this blaster had terrible aim. He fumbled in his jacket trying his best to find more of his bolas' but only found his flask damn it he must be out, the flask could still work though he threw his flask and ran towards the guard pack. The flask hit a guard with a clank bouncing off his armour harmlessly he seemed to laugh as Gacen arrived in front of him, Gacen smiled back slamming his foot into the guards crotch causing the guard to quickly keel over to the floor. Gacen picked up his flask took a quick swig and drew his blaster, now in close range managing to hit the guards each in quick succession. Two fell to the ground stunned but one took the impact and then ripped the blaster out of Gacen's hand, Gacen swallowed hard stepping back as the imposing guard lumbered towards him. Before the guard had a chance to hit him though Gacen spotted another guard thrown into his side causing them both to collapse to the floor. Gacen saw Ash dash past towards the door he smiled following after her, before he exited though he threw a few more stun grenades into the room for good measure.

As they arrived outside they could see the spaceport just across a small square, they sprinted towards it before the guards had a chance to catch up with them. Once in the spaceport Gacen skidded round the corner towards their hanger good thing they didn't know who he was otherwise this would be all locked up. He quickly lowered the landing ramp with the keys and proceeded to bound up it dashing towards the cockpit.

Gacen began the taking off sequence as Ash sat down next to him "what can I do?" Gacen sighed fighting off a bunch of guys was her forte but flying ships out of certain danger was his he could handle it.

The ship lurched up as Gacen could see a group of guards spill into the hanger "get on the gun this may get ugly" Ash nodded heading out of the cockpit. The ship rose out of the hanger and Gacen forced it forward they had to get out of here now and fast, Gacen spotted five starfighters spill out of the hanger to follow them, looks like some fancy flying was in order. The ship broke the atmosphere as the starfighters caught up to him, perfect timing he lurched the ship to the left causing the five starfighters to form up around him. The starfighters let off a volley of blaster fire at the ship causing Gacen to have to maneuver the shields alone, he still managed to crush it though. The ship shook as the lasers slammed into the shields but Gacen just smiled that meant they were at the right angle, suddenly Gacen turned the engines off falling back behind the pack of starfighters. He watched as the two either side of him slammed into each other now to deal with the other three, to avoid a head on collision he punched the engines back into gear flying around the remaining ships allowing Ash to nail one with the lasers. With two left Gacen began plotting the hypelane into the computer, he had to throw them off in case they would track the hyperlane route. He quickly found an adequate route he could then recalculate once the heat was off him and finished plotting the course, Gacen saw another explosion as the fourth starship was neutralised by Ash. Gacen looked behind him to see that many more starfighters had been brought out they had to go now, he powered up the hyperdrive and shot the ship into hyperspace.

Gacen slumped down in his chair and began laughing, Ash hurried back into the cockpit frowning at Gacen "that was terrifying flying, what's got you so happy?" it was amazing flying though

Gacen smiled "wooo oh wow I haven't flown like that in years what a rush" Ash chuckled, this must be what Ash felt like when they had that bar fight…
