I'm a bounty hunter, I have standards.

[Malik]

The Slag Pit was full tonight the owner had his hands full with drinks to make. The door to the cantina swung open, from it a masked figure came out with a body on his right shoulder. The owner turned towards the door and immediatly realized who it was. "MALIK! How are you doing my friend? Did you get the wretched rat?" The man named Malik moved wordlessly, making his way to the bar. When he reached it he tossed the body onto the bar with the face looking up at the owner. "Yep. That's him alright. He dead?" Malik was silent for a moment. Then he spoke in a voice distorted by the mask on his face. "Of course he isn't. You told me to keep him alive. Now it's time to pay up Baxter and this job isn't cheap." The owner laughed and looked the bounty hunter directly in the eyes. "I know I know! I'm sad to say you couldn't do this as a favor for a friend but a job's a job! I'll transfer all 20,000 credits to you I promise."

Thalia walks into the slag pit looking for a little bit of action. It was packed but Thalia was able to make her way to the bar. "Hey Baxter." She said looking at the masked figure beside her "Hey." She said curiously as she looked at the bag on the bar. She knew who it was so it didn't concern her and if things got bad she had her blaster on her

Malik turned his head to the girl beside him. He was taller than her but not by much. "Baxter, who is this?" Baxter glanced at [member="Thalia Kaia"] and then back to Malik, smiling. "Her? That's Thalia Kaia, a smuggler in these parts." Malik turned the rest of his body to Thalia "Interesting. Well Thalia, I am Malik. And I guess you could already see what I do for a living." Malik gestured to the body. "Now what is a lovely lady like yourself doing here?"

 

[Eli-Mae Forrest]

"Nice to meet you. As for what I am doing here looking for trouble most likely." Thalia said but she couldn't help blushing at the compliment but she looked at the bag and then punched it. "Sorry him and myself have a history."

[member="Malik"]

 

[Malik]

Malik smiled under his mask. "Trouble you say? Well you will likely find it here. What with all the drunks, criminals...." Malik moved his hand down to his belt and gripped the hilt of his vibrorapier ".....bounty hunters. Now, I must ask. What kind of trouble are you looking for?"

[member="Thalia Kaia"]

 

[Eli-Mae Forrest]

"Just anything I can make money off of. She said as she puts her hand on her blaster and clicks the safety off just incase

"Well then, how about a friendly duel? If you win you get the credits for this bounty, on my honor." Malik smiled as he said it, he was itching for an actual fight.

 

[Eli-Mae Forrest]

Thalia pulled her blaster "I don't think you want to do this I know I don't." She said with her finger on the hair trigger.

Malik unsheathed his rapier and dagger, the rapier moved the blaster down and the dagger was directed at Thalia's stomach. "Oh I think I do. Duels always are fun, I can show you some of my tricks."

[member="Thalia Kaia"]

 

[Eli-Mae Forrest]

The blaster goes off. Thalia kicks the dagger up away from her stomach and then points the blaster at him again. "Stop now."

[member="Malik"]

 

[Malik]

Malik sighed, putting his rapier and dagger back into his belt. "As you wish, besides I couldn't hurt a lady unless she had credits on her head.

[member="Thalia Kaia"]

 

[Eli-Mae Forrest]

Thalia puts her blaster away "So what are you doing here besides the bounty."

[member="Malik"]

 

[Malik]

Malik chuckled when she asked that question. "Well I pretty much live here when I have nothing else to do. But today I have plenty of things to do. Pick up things from the black market, have a chat with a local Hutt, check to see if my bounty license has been validated yet for my trip into the Mandolorian territory. Plenty of things, why do you ask?"

[member="Thalia Kaia"]

 

[Eli-Mae Forrest]

"Just wondering." She said looking at him.

[member="Malik"]

 

[Malik]

Malik thought for a moment, straighting his mask. "Is there anything here your going after? I know this planet inside and out. I could easily show you what your looking for is."

[member="Thalia Kaia"]

 

[Eli-Mae Forrest]

"No."

[member="Malik"]

 

[Malik]

Malik sighed. "Nothing? Nothing at all? Well then, Baxter, get me a nice shot of whiskey and a shot of what ever the lady wants." Baxter nodded and walked of to get the whiskey.

[member="Thalia Kaia"]

 

[Eli-Mae Forrest]

"Give me whiskey too." Thalia said looking at the bounty hunter "You didn't have to do that".

[member="Malik"]

Baxter came back with two shot glasses and a bottle of whiskey. Malik took the whiskey bottle and filled the two shot glasses. "Now, I can't just let you pay for your own drink that would be ungentlemanly." Malik took his shot glass and drunk it, only raising his mask slightly so he could drink it.

 

[Eli-Mae Forrest]

"Putting on the charm are we?" She says taking a shot.
