Vernon allowed Seth to lead them through the escape tunnel and followed shortly afterwards, scanning the corridors behind to be sure no one had tailed them. As he climbed the ladder down he closed the fire escape from the other side of door, rearming the alarm. When the door closed and Vernon...

The young man's ruthless integrity found its way through the chest of the guard. Fortunately for Vernon he had made damaged friends in his time. He was sad for a moment, that the young man's life had twisted him so far, yet whatever it was, the honour he clung to above all things was a faint...

Nar Shaddaa - Holding Cells Vernon allowed his leg to dangle at the edge of his modest bed and leaned back against the solid thick wall of the his holding cell. A purple shade rested in the contours of his face from the active force field that hummed nearby. From what he knew, what he managed...

He spiraled out to the side to be clear of the of the wider formation and cut his fire across at the base of the rocks. The bolts bursts from the cannons like the sound of a great plasma whip and blew apart the earth. Over the comm system he answered Maverick: whichever ones are left; and...

He felt the phantom frustration as in a dream: the way one carried out an action to no effect. He reached, he thought he cut an arc. But instead he keeled back against the ground, seized by the energy; like being bound by his own cells. He stared at the sky, watching the stars in the distance...

Whatever you're blaming yourself for, wasn't your fault. You've been strong. You are strong. You'll get through this too. Even if you don't realize it. But you've been carrying this burden all alone. I'm going to help you. Everything will be fine now. You just need some rest... It washed over...

He was already in the cockpit when she began to give her orders. Channel 102. 02. 02... ah! 102.6A. He saw the destination programmed on the cockpit. Mos Eisley Spaceport. Right. Something about betrayal... hyperspace capabilities? Sure. Sure. And they were ready. The cockpit canopy sealed...

He felt the way his neck hung from his shoulders. It was real now. He was not drunk, only lost, at the end, defeated. It was easy to forget the roar of spacecraft here. It was so loud, so constant, that it replaced senses at the baseline. He could sleep here if he liked, and if all the sound...

The crowd flowed like water through the wide space of the street, and Vernon moved up-stream, guiding meandering bodies gently around him; he was hardly there at all. He took each moment to glance over his shoulders—moving left, looking left—moving right, looking right—and kept his eyes peeled...

Sure he could handle it: an ace in the sky, a precocious flight student, a legendary name - he was not. But he had been on the boarding party of the Nar Shaddaa Contraband Enforcement Administration, he knew his way around a fighter at least. Though not in the way Maverick seemed to, who was...

[OOC: This thread will be the first chronological step for my character Vernon, where he begins as a fugitive on Nar Shaddaa. I thought it could be a good opportunity for any Republica or Bounty Hunter characters to attempt to hunt him down, or other characters to help him. I want to disable...

The case was that he may have been yanking her chain a little. Why she needed damned good pilots for a mission that didn't even leave the atmosphere, he didn't know, but he wasn't about to make his mediocrity clear. Of course, he said, simple. And quietly hoped Hank would have a long stay in...

In a nauseous panic, Vernon broke through the surface of a deep sleep when he heard the blaster fire; he was fast enough to watch the Rodian fall into the dirt. He sat up against the sand stone wall, took a drink to rinse his mouth of dust beneath the tattered shade sail, and listened to the...
