Episode 1.1
Tonight was a special night for Artorias. He was hosting the Trophy Hunters Galla. Hunters from all over the galaxy were invited to attend and talk about there most epic kills. He has just finished greeting the last person when a speeder bike arrived. That was shocking enough, someone just floating up to one of the biggest events of the year on a mere speeder bike. Then the biggest shock was who was on it.
Boba Fett got off the bike and walked up to Artorias.
Artorias: “Fett?!? Do you know how long it has been, and how bad you look riding up in here on a speeder bike!”
Fett: “Yes, and before you ask, I did get an invitation. How though, does not matter. I have a job. I am assembling a team for said job. There definitely will be a large amount of credits as an award. “
Artorias: “How much?”
Fett: “Enough for you to buy 10 custom Verpine Shatter Rifles.”
That was a lot of money.
Artorias: Alright, I have been needing a few of those. I am in.
Fett: “Here is a data cube, everything you need to know is on it.”
............................................
Artemis was laying down after getting herself comfortable a few hours ago. She was laying down in the upper branches of a tree. That tree was a great vantage point for sniping her target. Her target was some imperial governor who liked to take a walk at 11:00 pm around his compound that was inside a clearing inside a forest. It was 10:59. She just had to wait a few more seconds before she could kill the governor. She would kill him right as the doors to the compound would open. A blaster bolt to the heart should do the trick.
She readied her e-11s. The doors opened and she pulled the trigger. Her shot lanced out and struck true, but another shot had struck true, coming from a different position.
Artemis jumped out of her tree and ran about a mile to her hidden speeder. Once she reached it a voice called out…
Mystery Voice: “I wouldn’t do that if I were you, I rigged an explosive to go off at my command.”
This caused Artemis to whip out her DL-44 and start firing at where the voice came from. The figure was able to lean out of the way of her shot as if he knew she was going to do that.
Artemis: “Show yourself!!”
The mysterious figure walked out of the shadows. It was Boba Fett. Artemis’ heart skipped a beat.
Artemis: “Blast, Fett!! I almost cooked you!!
Fett: “I just wanted to make sure you were still a quick draw. Anyway it wouldn’t be like you could hurt me even if you hit me. I got the gray discoloring on my helmet from Vader.”
Artemis has actually heard of how he had got that armor discoloration. Vader had reflected one of Fett’s blaster rounds back at him.
Artemis: “So I guess you are going to recruit me for a liberation job?”
Fett: “Yes actually. You know the place where to meet me. 13:00 hours. Not a minute early. In two days. Oh, and I did not actually rig your speeder to explode.”
Artemis: “When I saw it was you I figured as much. Now Fett, please tell me we aren’t liberating Mandalore. At least five teams have died trying to even land there. The empire has too tight a grip there. They pounded mandolorian spirit out of the locales years ago. We would all die trying to liberate them!”
Fett did not respond. That had told Artemis that they were going to die trying to liberate Mandalore.
