A/N: next chapter, yay!
Disclaimer: I don't own Star Wars.
The guard at the Black Sun headquarters was bored out of his mind. There was nothing to do and he rarely got breaks from his work. Not like he needed them. Nothing ever happened. People were too afraid of Black Sun to even come near the place. He felt his job was basically pointless.
He looked at his chrono, finding out it was around nine o' clock at night. He wished he could sleep. He tried to remember the last time he slept in an actual bed. He gave up after several minutes. The night air was slightly smokey and humid, as usual. Occasionally he would hear some loud voices from a cantina down the street.
Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his neck. He brought his hand down to feel where the pain was coming from. He pulled out a sharp metal object from his neck. He realized it was a poison dart just as he fell to the ground. Just before his eyes closed, he saw a group of six people and an Anooba striding towards him.
"All right we're in." Ahsoka confirmed, using the force to open the door without setting off the alarms.
"Great. Let's try to find the control room now." Sugi said.
They sneaked down the hall, trying to figure out where the control room was without running into any guards. The halls were dark, lit only by tubes of glowing red liquid on the walls. There were intricate patterns and artwork carved into the walls. The place felt like a tomb.
They came to a several-foot-wide chasm which they could slightly see the bottom of. It was covered with sharp spikes pointing upwards. The hall continued on the other side of the gap.
"Mind the gap, love." Dengar stated, holding out his arm to stop Sugi from walking off the edge.
"Thanks." She muttered.
"Now what?" Latts asked.
"I can easily jump across. I don't know about you guys." Embo said.
"Me and Ventress could use the Force to lift the rest across." Ahsoka suggested.
"It's our only option, really." Sugi agreed.
Once Embo had jumped over, Ventress and Ahsoka force lifted Latts, Dengar, Sugi, and Marrok across. Then they used the force to aid them as they jumped across the chasm.
They continued along until they heard a high pitched, swishing noise. They rounded a corner to see spinning blades on both sides of the hall.
"You know, I've really had enough of spinning blades." Embo growled.
"Relax, there has to be another way." Sugi said, grabbing his wrist reassuringly.
"Hey, look at this." Ventress said walking over to something inlaid in the wall just a few feet away from the spinning blades."It looks like a control panel. It probably controls the blades."
"That makes sense. Then, if you're a Black Sun person, you just wave a key in front of it and the blades stop spinning." Ahsoka agreed.
Ventress used the force to hack the control panel, shutting off the blades. They ran to the other end of the hall before the blades started again. Turning another corner, they arrived at the door to the control room.
Vandalo Brute, who had just arrived on Coruscant this morning, sat at his desk, watching the screen in front of him. He smiled evilly.
"Sir the bounty hunters just reached the control room!" Izeese said, who was standing next to him
"I can see that." Brute responded cooly, gesturing to the screen with one hand.
"Aren't you gonna do something?" Tasha asked, seated on his desk, also looking at the screen.
"Not yet." He smiled.
Surprisingly, the control room was easy to enter. They walked in, and found the main controls for the building.
"Let's see… where are you…." Ahsoka murmured to herself, browsing the various buttons.
"What are you looking for?" Dengar asked.
"You mean what did I find." Ahsoka said, pointing to a red button. "The building's self-destruct button."
"Talk about leaving no evidence." Latts smirked.
"Just like how there will be no evidence of your deaths." They heard someone say.
They all turned around to see that they were surrounded by Black Sun guards. They were all pointing their weapons at the bounty hunters. There was no way of escape.
Then they saw two people enter the room One was the assassin Saljé Tasha and the other was the Fallen Vandalo Brute.
