(Dusty, dangerous, and hot as hell. There is no better place to start the story!)

The steamy night air rustled Trey's hair. He pulled his black coat a bit tighter, his dark eyes looking around for any potential attacker.

Slowly, a small bunch of lights was approaching, coming closer with every step Trey took.

He would soon be in Mos Espa.

At a cantina in Mos Espa:

A young girl pinned a Twi'lek mercent to the floor with her boot, "That wasn't the best idea girly." She grinned. "You see.... I have the upper hand here."

"That's enough Bounty Hunter." The barman said.

Trey wandered through the city gates of Mos Espa, looking around at the bustling town.

He slowly followed the feeling the dark side had given him the night before, hoping to find it soon.

"I'm not in the habit of repeating myself. Where do I find him?" Shashi asked as she eld the entire cantina at gun point.

Trey casually walked into the dark cantina, his eyes remained uncaring even as he looked at the girl holding the gun.

"I would suggest you let them go on their way."

She looked at him, "Just the man I'm looking for."

Trey held up his blaster, looking Shashi directly in the eye. "Just walk away now, and I'll forget you ever threatened me."

Shashi pulled out a second blaster, "Now you see..... I can't do that." She pointed it at Trey.

"Last warning..." said Trey, placing his hand over his lightsaber.

"You ain't the only one with a light blade boyo." Shashi replied.

"I already knew that you were a sith. I've known it since I walked into this town." Trey said coldly "I just know that you're not powerful."

Quietly, he force-pulled his lightsaber off his belt and held it backhanded.

"Really? That's where being a Bounty Hunter and a girl come in handy." She replied, with a smirk. "I can fight dirty."

"I'm not above hurting girls." said Trey, activating his lightsaber.

"And I'm not above blowing this pop sickle-stand to kingdom come."

"A thermal detonator will only draw attention to yourself." Trey said, swing the lightsaber casually.

"From where?" Shashi asked. "These boys are powerful enough to make Mos Espa a crater."

"No more talking." Said Trey, as 5 bottles lifted off a table "Now we fight."

The bottles suddenly began flying at Shashi.

She shot the bottles and holstered one of her blasters and drew her lightsaber.

"Impressive." Said Trey, tossing bottles at her as he spoke "Most impressive. Who trained you?"

(Wait for it............)

"My old master went under te name of Dart Issac." She replied.

(Bet you weren't expecting that.)

(Dun dun DUN!)

Trey looked at her carefully. "Are you sure? I've met that man, and all I know him as is a sniveling child."

"Really? He told me of you. A child with a superiority complex, who couldn't fight his way out of a wet paper bag."

Trey scoffed. "That man was always just a egotistical child with mediocre fighting ability, and a overinflated title. But I would advise that you tell me why YOU'RE here."

"Really?" She replied. "You advise me." She laughed and twirled her lightsaber. "I'm looking for bounty. That's my job."

Trey looked at her, his eyes narrowing. "Then perhaps you and I have something in common. Too bad. We barely got to know each other."

Trey jumped up on top of a table, and shot three simultaneous force lightning attacks.

(What time period are we in?)

Shashi jumped up and ran the lenght of the bar, firing glasses and bottles at him. "I wouldn't say much anyways."

Trey stopped the bottles on midair, enjoying the sound of breaking glass as they fell to the ground.

Taking a few moments to prepare himself, Trey jumped across the room, his lightsaber whirling in front of him.

Shashi moved to throwing larger objects and threw chairs and stools and fired lightning.

As Trey pushed the objects back at Shashi, he caught her lightning in one hand, and, combining it with one of his own, shot it back at her.

Shashi deflected it and it hit one of the costumers.

Trey looked indifferently at the burnt corpse, as he charged at Shashi, lightsaber in hand.

Shashi charged at him, lightsaber ready.

Trey didn't hersitate for a second, as he jump-kicked at Shashi, slashing his lightsaber violently.

Shashi crouched and round-kicked Trey.

Trey fell down, and jumped back up with a triple flip. "You've got moves, girl." Said Trey, landing on a table.

"You ain't bad yourself boyo." Shashi replied.

Trey looked her in the eye warily, his lightsaber still ready. "Surly we could handle this in a slightly more civilized manner." he said, sitting in a nearby chair.

"Civilized manner?" She asked, sitting on the bar. "How so?"

"Well we're both bounty hunters." said Trey slowly "And I know that there is a sizable bounty on your head too. Perhaps we can come to an agreement here."

"An agreement?" She thought for a minute, then laughed loudly.

"It's your choice. I just like to give my enemies a chance to end the fight." said Trey smoothly.

"Dude. I don't do agreements." She replied. "Unless I get payed."

"Oh, you'll get payed." Said Trey quietly "Just as long as you follow a certain plan."

"Let me guess. I never saw you and you never saw me. We leave here with our lives, and return to our jobs."

"After what just happened, not a chance." Said Trey with a smirk "I would rather have you follow the secondary plan. You see, there is a certain group that I work with. It's exclusive,

but I think that you'd be interested in this. It suits your talents, and your... uniqueness. You know what I'm talking about."

"No idea. No interest." She replied.

Trey looked at her carefully. "I know of your past, Shashi, of how you left your family. Of the people you've killed, and your guilt. I know why you became a bounty hunter, and

I know what you thought when you first pulled a trigger on a man for a wad of credits. I know everything about you, Shashi, and I know that I have your future in my hand."

Shashi laughed, "Firstly..... i didn't leave them, I killed them. Secondly the first person I killed as a Bounty Hunter was a woman." she replied.

"Does it matter?" said Trey coldly, as the cantina doors locked "I still know that what I have is a group of people that are specially suited for the sole purpose of bounty hunting. Your

assistance, I feel, would be of great importance to both of us."
