Hannibal crawled out from under an old dilapidated pylon he had been using as cover, his head still swimming with wine. He walked towards the two women, slipping in a glossy pool of blood on the way. He regained his balance, but he failed to regain his composure.
"THAT'S WHAT YOU CALL SOMETHING...
"Damn."
Hannibal lost the Jedi. She must have caught wind of him somehow. He slowed his pace and continued on his way through the market, checking stall after stall for a sign of his target. The midday sun seemed extra bright, he guessed due to the reflection it cast off of the metallic city...
Hannibal desperately tried to get a good look at her face. He feverishly worked his datapad's facial recognition software, trying to get a bead on some sort of distinguishable feature. He had a hunch that this woman had a bounty. Most Jedi were actively hunted by the Empire, and if you weren't...
Hannibal looked up to the droid.
"A thousand years, huh?"
He took another drag.
"I feel like we've all gotten off on the wrong foot. I'm Hannibal."
He held his hand out.
Hannibal had to laugh at both of them.
"We're fifty miles away from anything that resembles law. Jedi aren't welcome in the Outer Rim."
He looked to the Droid.
"Rogue droids aren't either."
He stood up from his stool and took a deep breath. He gave the Jedi a look that said I'll ventilate...
Hannibal saw the Jedi leave her ship. She looked ragged, he'd seen that same look on some of the faces of the residents of Nar Shaddaa. He'd seen the same look on the faces of some of the victims of the Hutts.
Hannibal threw the butt of his cigarette to the ground, stubbing it out with the...
Hannibal enjoyed Ahto. He found the architecture surreal. When he was a kid he would often dream of wandering through an empty city, either surrounded by an endless desert of suspended in the sky. Ahto was built under similar circumstances; it seemingly rising from the sea. As such, Ahto...
Hannibal pulled his helmet down over his head, his eyes adjusting to the HUD as it blinked to life. His heart rate was a little quick due to the nicotine and idea of a fifty-thousand meter plunge, but other than that his vital signs seemed correct. He immediately linked his data-pad with all...
Hannibal sighed. This just kept getting better. Took the parachute that was handed to him and looked to Kerris.
"What's our altitude? What if we get separated?"
He strapped the chute onto his back, making sure to interlock his blaster rifle between some of the straps. Last thing he wanted was...
Hannibal wordlessly took the credits and shuffled to his feet. He shot a sly smile and the Ongree and started to follow the woman.
As he walked away he looked back to the Ongree one last time.
"Watch the merch, I'll be back in an hour or so."
He followed the woman. She was alright looking...
Hannibal rocked himself out of the sofa that had served as his bed for the past few days, exhaling a lungful of smoke as his did so. He was tired of being confined to the cargo hold, and as such he entertained himself with a combination of drinking, chain smoking, and playing sabacc against...
Hannibal waited patiently for the large Ongree male to hand him his canister of wine back. The Ongree took a vicious swig of the drink, only half of it actually entering his mouth while the majority would dribble down his chin and onto his chest. Hannibal reached for the canister, hoping to...
Hannibal heard the clinker coming towards him before he even saw it. The noise dampening mesh that Hannibal assumed lined the bottom of the robot's feet didn't really work well if it wasn't maintained. This told Hannibal there wasn't really a human around to maintain the mesh. A rogue droid...
Hannibal shifted anxiously in his seat. Dantooine was beautiful, but it mind numbingly boring. Thankfully the planet was dotted with small colonies, most of which had some sort of bar or area for recreational activity.
This wasn't one of those colonies.
Hannibal found himself in a dry...
Hannibal slammed an ammunition pack into his blaster rifle. He didn't involve himself in philosophy. This new guy could've been the fire dude's buddy for all he knew. He stood up from behind the rubble and opened fire, sending a spray of fire in the direction of the newest Sith. He noticed the...
