By the next night, Latts was feeling much better. They were able to find a med-droid to heal her arm and now it was basically back to new.
All day they hung out in the apartment practically bored out of their minds. But Sugi insisted it was for to better, laying low for a day, maybe the assassin would quit. Highly doubted.
"Ugh! I't's 7:58 and I haven't done a thing all day!" Dengar moaned.
"Maybe we should get the med-droid back out to heal your boredom." Embo teased.
"I'm just gonna go down to the cantina." Dengar declared, standing up and walking to the door.
"Not alone, I'm coming with you." Latts said following him.
"I could use a drink myself." Ventress agreed, catching up to the two. Their voices got quieter as they closed the door and walked down the hall.
"What are we gonna do with them?" Sugi muttered.
"What would we do without them?" Embo countered.
"I could name a few things." Sugi smirked. "So, how have you been since… well.. you know, last year?" she asked Ahsoka.
"Oh, that. Honestly, I've been doing better. I feel like I actually have a life, well, I didn't mean that, but… you know what I mean, right?" Ahsoka tried to explain.
"Yeah." Embo sighed. "When I was younger, I belonged to a warrior clan on my home planet. They had difficult rules to follow. I know exactly what you meant by 'actually having a life'." he explained.
"It's nice when people understand you." Ahsoka smiled.
"Agreed." Sugi stated.
"I hate being the one who's being hunted." Dengar brooded, looking down into his glass.
"Now you know what it feels like to be a bounty." Latts smirked, leaning on the bar.
"Yeah, it almost makes me feel sorry for them." He chuckled.
"What? You feel sorry?" Ventress teased.
"Hey, I said it almost makes me feel sorry. There's a difference." He corrected her.
"I'm glad I can feel my arm again." Latts stated.
"You are so lucky. She could have sucked your brains out!" He exclaimed.
"Yeah, but then who would deliver her little message?" Latts asked, cocking an eyebrow at him.
"Well, just be careful. Besides, I like you better with your brains inside your head." He joked.
"Oh my gosh!" Ventress moaned.
"What?" Latts and Dengar said in unison.
"You two flirting constantly!" Ventress said like it was the most obvious thing in the galaxy.
"We are not!" Latts defended, eyes widening.
"That'll be the day." Dengar sighed, taking a sip from his drink.
There was an awkward silence. They either looked at their drinks, the floor, or just tried to avoid eye contact with each other. Then, the silence was broken when Dengar's comm started beeping.
"Hello?" He asked, answering it.
"Hi, um, I have a bounty and…. you're Dengar right?" A man's voice asked.
"Yes. So what is the bounty?" Dengar asked.
"I can't talk about it over the comm, someone could be listening in. Come to my apartment. It's in the building called the Broken Sailbarge, room 89 on the tenth floor." The man said in almost a whisper, causing Dengar to turn the volume on his comm up.
"Alright, see you soon then." Dengar said, turning his comm off.
"You can't." Latts stated.
"Can't what?" He asked.
"Go to that apartment. It's so sketchy." She explained.
"I'll be fine, don't worry." Dengar said, walking out of the cantina.
"He's gonna get himself killed." Latts said with a wince.
"Yes he is." Ventress agreed.
Ahsoka gasped, eyes wide with fear.
"What, what is it?" Sugi asked, worried.
"I just had a vision." Ahsoka breathed.
"What was it about?" Embo asked, tensing.
"The others are in danger." She said, closing her eyes to remember. "A call will put one of them in danger."
"We better call to tell them, then." Sugi stated, picking up her comm.
Almost a minute after Dengar walked out of the cantina, Latts' comm started beeping.
"Hello?" She asked, answering it.
"Hi, Latts, this is Sugi. Is every one all right?" She asked. Her friend sounded worried.
"Yeah, why?" Latts asked.
"Ahsoka just had a vision that a call would put one of you in danger." Sugi explained. Latts cursed in Huttese.
"What is it?" Sugi asked.
"Dengar just got a call about a bounty and he went to go talk to the person." She explained.
"Oh man." Sugi moaned.
"I'll try to contact him and tell him." Ventress suggested, taking out her comm.
"Great, oh I hope he hasn't gotten himself killed." Latts winced.
"He's good at what he does. I'm sure he'll be fine." Sugi reassured, though it didn't sound like she believed it.
"Bad news, I can't get him. His signal must be jammed." Ventress explained.
Dengar walked up to the tenth floor. He quickly found the room labeled number 89. There was a poster of a scantly clad dancing girl covering a large percentage of the door. Dengar shook his head in disgust and knocked on the door. There was no response.
He decided to let himself in. The room was dark, save for the light coming through the door. Dengar walked in. Bottles and other objects littered the floor, even the occasional piece of clothing or undergarment. Dengar wasn't feeling particularly comfortable with the cleanliness of the room.
Suddenly Dengar was grabbed around the neck by a pair of arms. He tried to break free of the grasp, but the person was, surprisingly, stronger than him.
"Now you die!" He heard them growl. He immediately recognized the voice. It was the voice of the employer.
