Sunburns

"Fixer, activate the landing gears..."
"Yes, Matthew."
The LE droid flipped a few switches in the co-pilot's panel, and turned to Matt and nodded. Matt was already beginning to sweat. The twin suns were already beating the ships air conditioning. the freighter shook as its entire weight was placed on the landing gears. The sweat was salty, and burned his eyes. He walked through the cargobay, opening the landing ramp, and exited the ship, Fixer following closelyh behind.

The sun-beaten landscape was hardly e=anything less than what Matt had expected it to be. It was a filthy crime-ridden, backwater hole of a planet. This was nothing less than what could be expected for Tattooine, though. The heat was so high, you could smell it. the air reeked of dead animal, sweat, and burning flesh.

Matthew finally began to walk, and 25 meters away, a Rodian drew his blaster to shoot him. Matt's Awareness kicked in, and he drew his blaster, shooting first. the scream of pain filled the air, and Matt walked on, smiling. He had a feeling, like he should just go on some killing spree, but he shrugged that off. Leaving the landing bays, he started to explore the marketplace.

Meanwhile, one Jermey Keth wandered the Tatooine marketplace with vague interest. The DSEG Marine was full of wonder as he searched the place, when he felt a hand grab something in his belt. Within seconds his fist smashed into a strange looking alien's face, which squealed and ran, leaving Keth's slugthrower in place.

Walking along, Matt ignored anything nearby. He needed to get out of here. He already had enough enemies here. Fixer couldn't help but point out a small alien lying on the floor, face broken.

"Matthew, look. I think he's almost dead. Should we call for help?

"Leave him. No one can help him."

Matthew noticed the stern looking soldier, whom Matt assumed was the culprit. The heat glare seemed to waft around him.

"You seem a bit pissed off."

Jermey chuckled "Can't walk ten feet without something trying to be nicked off me." the Marine told the man in front of him with a smile. "You know your way around this place? I come from out of this area of the Galaxy." he said, placing his trust in a complete stranger. Keth had hit one of the bars already, and while his senses were not dulled, the drink had dulled his judgement.

 

[Niklas]

"Yeah.. I know my way around here."

"Perhaps we can asisst you, sir."

Matt elbowed Fixer, which in return Fixer gave him a WTF shrug. Matt only smirked at the droid. The air was making him pour with sweat. The heat was becoming unbearable.

"How about we go somewhere with shade?"
