On another assignment (Open)

[Vice]

On the planet Hoth Vice tried to track his target. The Tall Asasian was on another assignment. He did not know this individuals name but he knew what they looked like. He knew his enemy was close he followed the footracks that his target left behind. Vice was told that this man was supposibly strong and intellegent but Vice found that hard to believe a man of such intellegence would have probally hid their tracks. Then again if this man was strong enough then it would not matter if he was being followed.
Vice sinced the presence of someone nearby. He was closer then he thought. It couldn't be two hard tracking someone on flat land of ice with a lot of trees. Beeeeeep! Vices transmission went off. He reached into a small pocket under his armor and pulled it out. A small figure appeared. It was Dash. The man that gave him the assignment.


''Hello Vice did you aquire the job.''

''No sir believe it or not he is hard to find. I will have him dead soon though. I can feel it.''

'' Well report back when you finish the job.''

''Yes sir it will be done sir.''

He put the transmission away and continued on his task. Every one hundered yards or so their was a group of trees while enbetween were flat patches of Snow. He was now in a group of trees. Ckkkkkscccccccccccccc! The sound of brances moving was clear enough to no that one of the trees contained his target but wich one. He drew his saber the red Blade hissed like a furious snake at its prey. He waited for the enemy to reveal itself.

"I have been watching you, Hunter. Your presence has been known to me since you set foot on this frozen domain. It has become..."

A pause. A small, and entirely all too amused smile slipped onto the predator's dark face. The giant of a man stood slightly leaned on a tree, hidden from physical sight.

"...increasingly irritating since you have somehow -- since arriving here -- made sense of the foolish decision to 'track' me."

Turning 'round the tree, Phoenix Mars Whyte and his entire two point two metres of height appeared to Vice's eyes. The hilt of a 'saber was clenched in his hand, emitting a pure white shaft of light. Only one of several lightsabers in his small yet well kept armoury of energy and non-energy weapons.

"Although I truly do not see what interest or purpose there would be in slaying me, or for that matter even making the attempt....I do expect an explanation."

The predator grinned maliciously, his deep eyes gleaming with devious intent. A vicious growl rode on the depth of his voice as he stepped closer, his dark aura emanating at the sort of strength that would make most beings ill. Mars was fixed on this man.

"If that explanation comes in the form of your lifeblood, then I have no qualms with that."

[Vice]

''It was not my choice to just come out here and freeze just to get rid of a mear human. It was my orders to do so. Appearantly a lot of people want you dead or your just not to smooth. Either way your wanted dead and I want my money so theirs your explanation pal.''

Vice neared his opponet lightsaber at hand hissing in the midst of evening. The fact that Phoniex knew Vice was their the hole time didn't surprise him. Vice did not however like to be sneaky on his jobs he was pretty straight forward specially with an enemy.

''You look like a man of intellegence you no the matter of buisness and when money is involved no matter who it is your willing to take them out. Well aactually that is a cross between evil and buisness but you get the point. Were both men here we just have to get by and the cost of doing so is never enough of to stop us.Enlightened?....You first.''Vice waited for his opponets move.

Mars growled a curse in a language no present being would understand.

I am no mere human. The fool. He thought.

"I shall take pleasure in your pain, infidel. Feel the rage of the ancient predatory mind."

With frightening speed, Mars whipped at him and dug in with his blade like wild beasts on a fresh corpse.

[Vice]

Vice kneeled to the ground in pain. ''........N...N..Nice move but it is now my turn.'' Vice took in the pain and leaped into the air landing a frontflip right behind Phoniex. He swung his lightsaber full speed at his opponet while he kicked at him with his right leg. One of thoise would hit him.

[Lucianus Adair]

Or so the assassin thought. The fool underestimated the skills of his quarry, and in one swift jump, the predator avoided both leg and blade, to land behind his opponent. Within the split of an instant, Mars had the man in a heavy and choking stranglehold, the white blade of his 'saber poised to impale the man through the back of the neck. Surely Vice could feel the singeing burn of the lightsaber's tip..one that bled a being for a microbe of a second before cauterizing.

"You are much too cocky a youth. You lack the vision to seize opportunity when it is available. You are too encumbered by your own self that it slows you."

Phoenix threw his voice far enough to make it feel as if he we speaking right into the man's ear and breathing down his worthless neck. The most threatening of feral growls was heavy on his voice like alcohol was to a drunkard's breath.

"Go back from whence you came, and do not return until you can kill within a strike. If you cannot do this, then do not bother wasting your lifeblood on I. If you do, I shall waste it on the ground."

Mars released Vice from his grip, and gave him a heavy blow to his temple.

"Imbecile."

[Vice]

Vice flew toward the ground in pain. He knew he was in a difficult position. He slowly staggered to his feet and put his saber back into a fighting position. He got back into his offensive stance but fell right back down along with the pain in his body he was already hurt. Vice knew he was better than this stubborn fool. He took out a small little smoke bomb and through it toward his target making an easy wauy for him to jump into a tree and hide until he found a better plan without being seen. He hopped up into the tree and watched his enemy look around in confusion.

[Lucianus Adair]

Phoenix, being that he had the Force to his advantage, was several steps ahead. Intentions were so easily seen...his opponent was far too predictable, and Mars had slipped from sight just ahead of the smoke cloud's expansion. He was leaning up against the tree in which Vice had placed himself, and he had a hand gripped onto the trunk of the tree, concentrating a deep reserve of energy for matter manipulation to create a deep well of rot in the middle of the tree.

"You are going to have to do better than that. Much, much better than that. One does not easily take down a seasoned hunter, much less a Sith. You do not know what you have gotten yourself into."

The weary creak of the tree could be heard rather well by his opponent, and at that moment, the predator ripped his lightsaber's blade through the rotted middle, stopping several inches before the other side. Then he delivered a heavily planted boot to the tree, making it fall away from him.

As the tree fell, he yelled: "DO NOT HIDE FROM ME! COME FORTH AND FIGHT LIKE THE ASSASSIN YOU CLAIM TO BE! "
He then breathed a deep growl.

"You disgust me, ingrate. If you were truly able to stand up to the title of your occupation, you should have at least been able to come close to searing the skin on my knuckles."
