"Nor'baal." Krass spoke "Can I not go anywhere on my home planet and speak with business owners without you threatening me? Must I cancel any meetings I have with CEC as well, for fear of defying you? This meeting does not concern our arrangement. Go back to having your monkey shit on people."
Softly, the light on the communicator blinked as the connection was made and accepted by the calls recipient, the audio feed activating first - as the communication was answered. The recipient had provided the communicator to Lars for emergency use only, and as such was quite prepared for what he would be needed to say. Kicking into life, the audio feed transmitted an unmistakable voice to those present in the room, deep - yet its usual bombastic nature was replaced with an ice cold patina of thinly veiled disgust.
<Has it really been so Long Senator Krass, that you have already forgotten our arrangement?> boomed the voice from the comms unit, before the holo-projection flickered into being, revealing the Hutt (quite clearly in some form of moving shuttle/yacht) <Or do you need reminding?> he said, his voice rising in volume to match his growing anger. Nor'baal Desajilic Koragga, now fully visible in the room, made a simple gesture toward the door.
<Leave.> he said with deafening finality <Or I will consider this defiance an act of personal vendetta, and a breakage of our agreement.> he added, before facing Senator Krass directly. <If you wish to play this game Senator Krass, I must warn you now - it is a game you shall loose.>
The Hutt made another gesture with his hand, this time toward someone who could not be seen on the Holocall, and the yacht he was in shifted, as if changing direction. <Or do you need reminding in person?> he concluded.
Aren's eyes darted down as the man's hand landed on his blaster, tapping on it. He tensed his muscles, preparing for movement if he needed to. His eyes were locked on the blaster, and as soon as Lars gripped it he jumped to the side and began running. Within a moment he was through the door gripping the comlink in his pocket and giving it two quick squeezes, sending two clicks to the CorSec team outside.Lars' eyes widened as the communication device was activated. He didn't plan to activate it just yet, he wanted to bargain and talk, but after giving it a thought, this was probably for the best. He was smiling throughout Nor'baal's speech, thinking that watching a Senator get psychologically bullied by an opportunistic ball of slime was one of the finest pleasantries in a person's life that were very rare to witness. However, when Krass insulted the Hutt, Lars covered his mouth with his hand, partly to hide his smile. He then proceeded to play with his beard a little. "Well, mr. Krass," he started, lost in thought. "I think we won't be able to talk today. Can't go against the boss, sorry." He said and tapped his fingers on his blaster, strapped on his right side. He was apparently thinking about something, tapping the fingers on the blaster. "It seems like boss is ought to get ya... and I really need the money. Not to mention his favour." Suddenly, he has decided and gripped the blaster and aimed it at Krass' head, shooting. However, his blaster was old and rusty, not to mention Lars' poor marksmanship skills, so he prepared himself to shoot again.

Krass was pushing through the crowd in the lobby as CorSec poured in, their blaster rifles raised,
"EVERYONE ON THE GROUND. NOW." one of the guards shouted.
Krass had left Arritef in the room with Lars, and hopefully, only Arritef would exit.
"Your trial date will be announced within the week. Until then we are keeping you in a detention facility. "Lars stared at the guard. Then at his hand. Then at the guard again. He then growled in pain again as more blood was flowing on the floor. "Son... you must be shitting me..." he said in between his wheezes and quiet moans. However, the CorSec guards just forced him to stand up and then put the cuffs on his hands, his wounded hand twitching rapidly. Lars looked at the captain of the CorSec unit that was just arresting him.
"May I at least know where am I going?" he asked, not even a hint of a smile.
"You are to be put into one of our jails." the captain answered, returning the stare.
"That is it? No trial, no nothing?!" Lars' eyes widened even more with anger.
"I suggest that you should keep quiet, sir, unless you want it to be used against you." the captain rolled his eyes and waved for the guards to take him away. He silently obeyed, frowning and trying to ignore the ever-growing pain he felt in his right hand.
