Sullust, a planet the smuggler always thought of it as Mustafar if it cooled down a bit and became a bit more industrial. Caleb's frigate was set down at one of these factory sites, particularly one that built the computers for star ships and base commands. His contact on Tatooine had requested some of these computers to be picked up and delivered to him. He didn't ask the reason, nor did he usually, as long as he got paid.
As a group of heavy-duty droids carried three large crates onto Caleb's ship, the ginger was busy sealing the deal with a Sullistan. After signing over the buyers credits to the large-eyed alien, Caleb immediately took off into orbit and set a course for the desert planet known for its twin suns. This job was simple enough, he thought to himself, for he was not doing any real smuggling here. Merely doing a pick up and drop off of the product. He checked all of his navigational charts and prepped the hyperdrive to make the jump.
As the man sat back in his chair and waited for his ship to increase speed, the alarms started blaring. "Oh what the hell?" He sat up and took a look at his radar. A ship about the size of his own, accompanied by four fighter-class ships were closing in on his position. Before the man could redirect his ship out of their way, the fighters opened fire, riddling his ships rear shields with cannon fire. His frigate was not meant for combat against this many ships, but the speed of those fighters would prove difficult for him to get away. Increasing power to the engines, Caleb shot forward to evade any more fire. "Blast, what are these some kind of pirates?"
The pilot quickly made his way towards a nearby asteroid field to try and lose the pirates.
