Desperate times, right?

"After the crash, I stayed with her for 3 days of snow and sleet on that horrible planet waiting to be rescued! I tell ya, fending for your life, you revert to instincts you didnt even know you had!" Jace boomed into the crowd, yet he was only half as drunk as all of them. He told the story of how he came to the bar in the depths of Coruscant, hearing occasional laughter and applause from the huge group of people that gathered before him in the dusty, dingy old bar.

Of course, he had been stretching the truth a small amount, seeing as in how he only spent one day on the planet, got his ship destroyed and got played by a devilish woman. He would justify that it was the liquor talking.

None the less, he continued his story, parading his actions to save the girls life, making him sound as heroic as possible. Every few minutes he'd pause his story to gulp down as much ale as he could before continuing. Three weeks he had been on this wretched plant, It was getting to the point that he was missing Narr Shadaa. He needed a ship. Bad.

With an empty pocket, and a sunken heart, Graad pleaded to the innkeeper, "Please, all I'm asking for is one night. I'm out of credits, and I can't find work, but as soon as I get enough I'll pay you back." Graad hated doing this, looking so pathetic in front of all of these people, but he doubted he could stay another night sleeping on the ground. Using the rest of his credits to get a ride from Tatooine was the worst decision of his life. Last time Graad was on this stink hole of a planet, there were loads of people looking for mercs, now he couldn't find one.

He walked away, the blaster clanking against his belt as he walked. The signs of hunger covered Graad's thinning body. He needed work. Bad. It was about time he started going door to door asking if anyone needed a worker. It stole his once great Mandalorian pride, but it was better than starving to death.

Stealing was a bad habit, but one that Graad picked up none the less. Before he left the bar, he trotted over to some guys drink. His head swayed from left to right as he scanned the room for onlookers. Everyone seemed too wrapped up in some guy's story that they weren't paying attention. Good, Graad thought, I can take this without anyone noticing. Graad reached out, grasped the drink, and downed it. Hell, he needed it much more than whoever's drink that was.

At a slow and somber pace, the exiled mandolorian walked towards the exit.

"And thats when I kissed that poor girl, and I swear, I raised her right back from the edge of her grave and gave her the life to keep going!" Jace boomed, climaxing the epic he was stretching to these drunken idiots. The crowd erupted with laughing and clapping, Jace sitting there proud of himself. This truly was the only way to pass the time on this forsaken planet anyway.

A sudden buzzing slipped out of Jaces pocket. "And thats the lucky lady right now" He said with an intoxicated wink, pulling out his com unit. The whole crowd went silent waiting for her to speak as he answered the message.

A tiny buzzing came from the comlink before a feminine voice sounded through the speaker, loud and clear. There seemed to be a lot of mechanical moving from the background. "Jace. I wanted to see if you found your ride yet for the party. It's recommended that the VIP guests come a day early, and tomorrow's that day. I can get your reservations at the hotel across the street." There was a sudden alarmed R unit screeching in the background, followed by giant smashing noises and more screeching sounds. It disappeared as running footsteps littered the vocals of the comlink.
 
Jaces slurred words echoed into the mic.

"You got it, ill be there"

The croud began to give Jace odd looks, as his story was begining to sway.

Without realising the situation he was in, jace took another gulp of ale.

She kept quiet for a good moment, then spoke through the comlink again. "You're telling some people that you were a hero, huh? I remember how badly you were shivering when you wet your pants on Hoth. All frozen down there. You had to use your own shirt to keep your legs from freezing together." Soft sounds of droids circling each other made their way on the intercom this time, now with a more orderly sense of walking and strolling.
 
"Well thanks for the invitation but I have to go see you around I guess" jace spoke fast and nervous, hanging up the call. Looking up slowly, the crowd in front of him looked progrssively more and more upset.

Letting out a nervous chuckle, Jace sat silent for a few seconds. That is, before he bolted up from his seat and took off through the door. The bulk of the group chased after him, drunken and angry, roaring like a rancor mother.

Exiting the bar, jace kept going, until he tripped and fell over a tall older gentlmam, tripping the both of them. ( [member="Graad Fenri"] )
 
Graad barely noticed the commotion behind him when he left the bar. Down on his luck, the crestfallen man's search for work started. He thought about all the locations there were bound to be people who weren't under the scrutiny of the One Sith. There had to be somebody on this forsaken planet that would pay him for some task, no matter how small. He needed something her he was bound to die on this trash heap they call a planet. Then he would be just another body laying on the side of the street for the cleaners to get rid of.

Suddenly the ruckus grew louder as it spilled out into the streets. Graad looked back at the commotion just in time to see a young man fly into him at a full sprint. Graad's weak body felt the full force of the impact as he found himself laying on the hard cement ground. The smell of garbage filled Graad's nostrils. Mostly because the ground was covered in trash.

It seemed like the guy got himself in trouble, and he was trying to get himself out by running. Graad pushed himself up, and lent a hand to the ruffian that so nicely smashed into him. Suddenly it hit him. This was a perfect job for Graad. Graad decided to talk to the guy and said, "Hey, I'll distract these guys for you if you give me some credits. 75 will do the trick." Graad reached out his hand as if expecting payment.

​Jace picked himself up and looked at the man he had just toppled over. His face contorted to one of pure judgment. "You con artists are everywhere, arent you?" Jace remarked with a chuckle, pulling out a small card from his pocket and tossing it toward him.

"Theres 80 on that, make sure not to kill anyone" He spoke. Everybody liked to feel like a hero once in a while anyway.

Standing back up, giving no time to brush off his clothes Jace braced down the street to hide behind a clunky broken down droid and see how his new "friend" was going to handle the situation.

Graad turned at the crowd behind him. The blaster at his side was nothing but dead weight at this point. All it would do is clank around and make him uncomfortable, so Graad drew it from it's holster and threw it aside. His opponents looked extremely pissed. This was going to be fun. Graad's hand reached up to his chin and assisted him in cracking his neck. After giving a deep sigh, the tall man balled his hands into fists and slowly approached the livid crowd. There numbers range slightly above ten, but it didn't matter to Graad, half of them were drunk.

The charging men stopped in front of Graad. Their anger turned into fury at the site of their path being blocked. Graad gave a cocky smile and spoke to gentlemen before him, saying, "Hello boys. I happen to be an acquaintance of the man you're chasing, so if you want to take him and do whatever it is your going to do with him, you'll have to take me down first. Now, I'll give you a chance..." A man charged at Graad before he could finish his sentence. Well, it looked like they weren't going to get any chances.

The man charging Graad swayed back and forth as he ran forward. He punched in sloppy fashion, and easily allowed Graad to push the fist out of the way. The man probably wasn't expecting it, since he stumbled forward. Graad took the opportunity to grab the back of the mans head and smash it straight into one of Graad's moving fists.

The rest of them surrounded Graad. It was obvious that Graad's calculation of half of them being drunk was wrong. They were all drunk. Every man around Graad was stumbling where they stood and tripping over the air around them. Instead of waiting for the men to start attacking, Graad started the assault. He ran up to one of the men and shoved him into the alley wall. A well placed knee in the stomach sent the man reeling over. Graad's hand covered the drunkard's forehead, and smashed his head into the wall. The man's body collapsed right after the impact.

He felt a man grab one of his arms as another hit him in the back of the head. The punch was weak and sloppy, but hurt none the less. Graad's fist found it's way into the nose of the man holding him. His arms instantly let go as the came out to cover his nose, and to stop the blood gushing out. Graad turned around to look at the one who it him. It was a scrawny man in his late 20s. Graad saw a limp as the intoxicated man walked forward with another swing. His left leg was clearly injured. Graad simply stepped around the uncoordinated man's swing and kicked in the back of the knee on his left leg, causing him to cry out in pain. The scrawny man, now down on one knee, was the perfect height for a strong kick, so Graad swung his leg and smashed it into the right side of the man's head. He fell to the ground.

Graad ran back to the man with the bloody nose, and grabbed him by the neck. The man moved his arms from his face and tried to tare Graad's arm away from his neck. In response, Graad shoved him back. During the man's stagger backwards, Graad ran up, grabbed his head, and threw it down while forcing his own knee up. The man bounced back up, dazed. It was apparent that he was close to unconsciousness, so Graad threw his entire body into a punch.

When Graad turned back at the group behind him, he was only met with their backs as they were running away. He gave a soft chuckle while wiping the blood off of his hand. It seemed like he did his job nicely. The mandalorian began his trot back to the alley where he was payed. He was glad that the men were as drunk as they were, because his body already was beginning to ache.

Jace peeked up to see the carnage take place. broken noses, arms and bloodied knuckled littered the ground around the man. After a dew seconds, Jace caught himself with his mouth wide open, forcing it shut to keep himself from looking stupid. Keeping his eyes glued to the epic fight performing in front of him, it ended with everyone but the man he hired standing in the middle of all the chaos.

Taking a stand up, brushing his coat off, the young smuggler went to greet the man once again. "Hey buddy, how about me and you go get something to eat, alright? I owe you at least that" Jace spoke with chuckles riddled through his words.

Looking over, Jace saw the men rolling around on the ground, choosing to ignore them.
