"I was born here, lived in the wilds with my mom till I was eight. I lived here alone after that till I met C......" BB was saying till a distant howl caught his attention.

BB put his finger to his lips to request silence and listened as two more howls rang out each coming from a different. Ferrazid hounds, he knew their call all to well. Their party must have wondered into part of the hounds territory and they were now encircling. If BB was alone he could just hide from them till the lost interest but with such a large party that was not an option..... Plan B.

"Menka we need to move now, I don't really have time to explain other than a bunch of nasty beast are about to attack. One of my treasure spots is not to far from here. If we can make it we will at least have a fighting chance against the pack but we need to move fast now...." BB exclaimed.

Menka was intent to listen until she heard the howls, an example of why she didn't go to planets like this. She agreed, but she had to completely remove her mask. It didn't let her breathe hard or fast enough for running, so she would have to take the pain for a moment. She ordered her droids with hand motions to hurry up and surround them to give them cover until they reached the spot Bryce talked about.

"Just a few more blocks!" BB yelled as the group ran down the abandon street.

The Ferrazid hounds had closed much quicker than BB had hope and the area was now a cluster of attacking beasts and blasting droids. BB let the droids fend for themselves while running a shoulders distance from Menka holding off any hounds that were able to get past her droid body guards. The vine covered building around them echoed with weapons fire and primal growls as the finally approached BB safe spot. Pointing to an abandoned medical facility he shouted for Menka to seek shelter their while he "held them off!"

Menka's remaining droids followed her through the medical doors while BB fired wildly at the attacking beasts before his weapon went silent, the battery pack drained.

Slinging the DC-15 over his shoulder he ran for the door himself with unnatural speed for a boy his size. Leaping over a pouncing hound he rolled though the door way and in one motion tripped a lever that caused a crude metal fence to fall down and block the centers entrance. Electric sparks lep from the metal bars as the hounds swiped at the fence looking for a weakness, but soon they stopped and the largest of the pack came forward.

"Appa, enough of your family has died today, go home." BB said meeting the beast while on the opposite side of the fence.

With no more to say BB motioned for Menka and her droids to join him deeper in the building.

"Place has a generator and battery backup," BB said has he turned on the lights revealing a neglected and ramshackle interior.

"Welcome to my treasure spot. This is some best scrounged stuff. Take a look around, especially in the surgical sweet, I think that is where I put those BAF ones you liked." BB said pointing to a door off to one side.

Menka was starting to lose her breath, the pain swelling up in her throat and chest the farther they kept running. She wasn't ever the athletic type in her life either, but it wouldn't matter if she was. Thankfully, her droids did as much as she expected; held them back or distracted the beasts just long enough for them to get clear of the danger.

Menka signalled about two droids to stay behind with Bryce as she continued to where he told her to go. They let their lives be taken as Bryce ran out of ammo and continued his way to her. Noticing Bryce activating a trap with little ease while under suppression told her that he really had been here awhile, learning the tricks of the land. Which made her appreciate the work he was doing, and make her decide something. She took one of the rifles one of her droids grabbed from a downed droid and tossed it over to Bryce, her droids programmed to grab equipment if they could. "Hey, the R1 Blaster Rifle. I based it," she coughed a bit, grabbing her mask, "based it on the DC model. It's a lot more powerful. Not saying better but, you can have it."

She worked quickly to put her mask back on and heaved, taking a moment to breathe. Her few droids left came over to hold her up so she didn't fall. After she got herself together and could finally breathe, she looked up to where he pointed, wanting to see those droids they ventured all the way out here for. Walking over to the door, she opened it and looked inside

BB looked over the rifle Menka had given him. It was light, and felt good in his hands. BB couldn't remember the last time someone just gave him something and was overjoyed to have been offered anything, much less something as useful as a new gun. Turning back to Menka to thank her he noticed the room she was walking into was unlit and decided to fix that. Once he had restored power to the room he follow in after her to see how she was doing.

Whether still recovering from the recent run in or in shock from the multitude of parts she stood BB could be sure but BB wasted no time showing off his vast collection he had acquired over the years. From 2-1B medical droids to OOM - battle droids, R2 astromechs to GE3 protocol droids, all manners and classes seemed to be represented.

"Menka over here!" BB said happily finding something important.

Moving a large tarp he reviled the 3 BAF units they had come for. Two missing their legs and heads and the third seemingly shot in the chest with a large caliber shell.
