Bounty Troubles

[Carden Lorps]

Carden walked off of his ship, his armour touching the sands of Kashyyyk.

He left his helmet on the ship, he was on Kashyyyk to collect a bounty on a Jedi Padawan.

He let the wind run through his brown hair, his blaster at his side.

Walking the sand he looked up and remembered meeting Tugoro there before.

Without noticing he ran into a Wookie

This particular Wookie seemed to not like Carden.

Carden frowned.

"Sorry..." he trailed off.

The Wookie slammed his arm into Carden's tattered armour.

He slid back

"Ugh...I was hoping just to get this padawan...I guess I get to kill a Wookie too..." Carden's voice trailed off.

Carden pulled his blaster pistol from his waist and fired, the wookie wouldn't go down.

He pulled up his arm and aimed his flamethrower which was embedded in his wrist.

The wookie caught on fire, when Carden had seen this he fired his blaster a few more times before walking towards a forest entrance.

Just recently, an entire Wookiee village had been slaughtered by a bounty hunter known as [member="The Cyborg"]. Tugoro did not like to think or speak about the things that occurred on that night. The flames that had been unleashed upon the tall trees had long but been extinguished, leaving a massive pile of ash in it's wake. It had been a several days since Tugoro had even moved, for he just couldn't find the motive to leave. The Jedi had failed in his one duty, he carried the immense weight of all the lives that had been claimed. Occasionally, the boy would twitch violently, wracked by the pain of starvation and dehydration. There was no point in leaving. In the distance, the Padawan could sense the a nearby life form that was slowly diminishing, leaving only one other left at the scene. It was familiar energy, for it was [member="Carden Lorps"].

Turning his entire body in a roll, the depressed boy would fall off of the branch, exerting his force energy in a telekinetic cushion beneath him. The fall took a considerable amount of time, which allowed the Jedi to build up the remaining force power he could muster. Eventually, after a few minutes, Tugoro would emerge from the forest, his squinted vision peering towards the shoreline. He could see his bounty hunter friend, and a corpse of a Wookiee nearby. Surely, Carden hadn't killed it. Surely, it had been a victim of the cyborg. Slowly approaching the man, Tugoro would greet him with a weak smile, before giving the fresh looking corpse a worried luck. Had the cyborg returned? Was he still alive? "What...Happened?" He questioned, intent on hearing Carden's point of view.

Carden watched as a figure came out of the forest.

It was none other then a Jedi...his friend Tugoro Taidarious.

The boy looked to be sick of somthing...full of pain much like he was in the bar...the night he saw Maleus again.

Carden smiled to his old friend.

Tugoro questioned Carden about what happened to the lifeless Wookie.

Carden put his blaster away.

"Tugoro my friend, it's been a while...I'm sorry bout your wookie friend, he got in my way and attacked me for some odd reason." Carden said.

He felt bad for Tugoro...but at the same time he felt like he needed to enjoy it.

Tugoro needed to feel some sort of pain, it was good, but bad.

"What happened to you?"

A look of disappointment spread across the boy's face, as he watched the bounty hunter lower his blaster rifle. The young Padawan would hang his head in shame, an overwhelming sense of grief washing over him. Still, [member="Carden Lorps"]' words rung true, for the Jedi sensed no deception in his explanation. The recent massacre of a nearby village had put most of the local Wookiees on edge, Tugoro was not surprised that Carden had been attacked. The Padawan was too weak and tired to give the hunter a scolding anyway.

"I...See," he managed to mutter, his movements and words appearing to be rather sluggish. It was more than obvious that he was exhausted, and in decent pain. Turning to look in the direction he had come, Tugoro would slowly lift a single arm, pointing to the dark tendrils of smoke that were still present, even though the fire had died long ago.
(Going to bed mate, will reply in a few hours.)

Carden looked at Tugoro, he looked like crap.

The boy seemed tired...out of it....Carden looked at him.

Tugoro pointed to thin lines of smoke coming from the forest.

Carden went to silence for a moment, he then looked back Tugoro.

"Oh so that is what that smell is, I see."

Carden had been going through a bit of depression himself, he almost took his own life a few times.

He was glad he didn't or he wouldn't get to see any of his so called 'Friends'.
