Chapter 9. Survivors

For the next three years Petyr traveled with Royce to planets like Nal Hutta, Ord Mantell, Tattooine, Bespin, Dathomir, and Telos. As they traveled Petyr's precognitive foresight abilities became stronger. Three times he prevented an ambush by bounty hunters. Then there was the time avoided pirates stealing their cargo. And the time they walked into the lair of the Black Sun and walked out with enough black market goods to become kings.

Petyr sharpened his abilities through hours of meditation. He grew into a lean muscular athletic man. Royce became a father figure to Petyr who taught him how to pilot a ship, slice a lock or computer, and mechanics. It was in the middle of the third year that Petyr took some spare parts and built a very impressive combat droid.

Kato-Neimodia

"Okay the guy we are seeing his name is Bisohn." Royce says as they enter a private gambling suit on Neimodia. "Let me do all the talking…"

Petyr smiled, "Don't I always…"

The doors open and in walks a pudgy short man of five feet. "Roy! Long time no see…" They shake hands and then Bisohn notices Petyr. "Who is this?"

"My partner! Petyr…"

"So I need you to pick up some weapons and deliver them to Dac…"

"What kind of weapons?"

"The illegal kind…Job pays 5,000,000 creds…The ship is called the Nex and it is crewed by droids…you will pilot it…"

"When do we get paid…"

"When the job is done…The Nex is here on Neimodia…Docking platform 12…"

"Alright we are off…"

When Royce and Petyr left Bisohn pulled out a special holocom device, "Mistress…I have found a pilot for the ship to deliver the weapons…"

It was Darth Cognus, "Are our agents in place to receive the shipment…"

"Yes mistress…"

"Good no witnesses…"

Bisohn cleared his throat, "Begging your pardon milady, but Royce is a good pilot I have worked with him before…Maybe we can use him as an agent…"

"I said no witnesses…"

"Yes milady…It shall be done as you command…"

Dac – Mon Calamari home world

Royce and Petyr fly through an air tunnel to an underwater base and dock. When they exit the ship Royce is shot down as he was in front of Petyr. Petyr's battle droid B-1 laid down cover fire while Petyr dragged Royce back up the ramp. That is when a sniper shot Petyr in the head…

Dac was often referred to as Mon Cal but the official name in galactic record is Dac. There is a motion in the senate to change the planet's name. "Hey you awake over there?"

"We are walking into a trap…"

"How do you know? Never mind! Bisohn would never betray me…"

"Well I had a vision you and I are both killed…" Petyr explains in great detail what he saw.

"So what do you suggest?"

"Well we aren't getting paid so I say we teach Bisohn's friends a lesson…"

As the ship exits hyperspace Petyr lays out his plan. As he invsioned, the Nex flies through an air tunnel to an underwater base and docks. Only they send B-1 Down the ramp who fires a heavy repeating E-WEB blaster. Dozens of dock workers and sith agents die in the droid's assault. Someone throws an ion grenade but B-1 is heavily shielded against ion grenades. While the fight unfolds Royce and Petyr exit the ship via the landing gear. Using a sniper riffle Petyr kills the sniper up on the hanging catwalk on the ceiling. Petyr had reprogrammed the crew droids aboard the Nex so they were helping B-1 fight as well. Several Droids are armed with bombs to explode in key places in the base and flood the entire facility. When the fighting is over Royce and Peter take the Nex and leave as the bombs go off.

Coral City-Five Days Later

Bisohn stood shaking his head as he watched the monitor. A remote hydro droid was searching the base for salvage. "Now what?" A Quarren Seperatist asked, "We can't make the attack without those weapons…"

"Please general…"

"Sir!" A Sith controller says at the station, "We have retrieved the holovids from the base…"

Sith Throne World of Vaasad

Bisohn nervously stood before Darth Cognus as she watched the holovid of the two manned attacked on her secret base. "Um…they managed to reprogram the ship droids…milady…Royce is a slicer but he is not that good…"

Darth Cognus ignored him as she was focused on the young man, "The boy what is his name…"

"Petyr…I did a little digging and his grandfather is King Aurmon Dayhok of Chandrila…He has a standing bounty on his son…Apparently every bounty who has gone after the boy has failed…His father is an exiled Jedi named Jammen Tayl…"

"I want the boy alive and unharmed…His friend as well…Tell all our agents to drop what they are doing and find him…"

"Yes ma'am…Um what about the insurgent attack by the Quarren?"

"Put that on hold for now…The boy is all that matters…"

Nar Shaddaa

Royce and Petyr took the ship to Nar Shaddaa to sell the weapons and the ship on the Hutt black market. "I say we place a bounty on Bisohn's head…"

Royce smiles, "His plan to betray us failed kid, because of you…We don't need go after him…We just lay low for a while…"

"Well I would sleep better if we offed that clown…"

"So I say hit Bespin and take a break for about a year…"

"Why not Spira? Buy an Island and soak in the sand and get some women…"

"I like how you think kid…Spira it is…"
