Fett quickly got up, and pulled his Lightsabre off the table. He stopped still, and listened. He had heard a noise, and had feared the worse. He heard another noise, a scream. It is worse thought Fett, as he began to run into Kate's bedroom. As he stepped in, he saw that the room was empty, and a window was broken, running to the window, he saw a spacecraft fly off into the atmosphere. Fett instinctively turned round, and saw him standing there. Darth Veart. He was leaning against a wall, laughing
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"
Fett woke up with a start, and looked around. He saw that he was in The Sawn-off, his Firespray class craft. The ship that Fett had switched to at a small space station. He realised it was a dream. The same dream again. The same dream since the rescue. When he had rescued Kate, but nearly at a great cost. He had been moments from turning to the dark side. Since then, Fett had been able to think of nothing else. What if i HAD turned? What would have happened then?
"You alright?"
Fett turned his head to see Kate standing at the doorway. Fett was suprised to see that she was standing properly. For the last three weeks, she had had a bacta-cast on that leg, due to the broken leg she had recieved while on Klatu moon. Without the healing powers of bacta, she would have struggled to stand, let alone walk.
"Yeah, just a bad dream" Fett replied
"Has there been any others?"
Fett smiled at the last comment. It was true. Fett hadn't had a decent sleep since the rescue. He would have been a nervous wreck if it hadn't been for a Jedi meditation trick he had learned while still a Padawan.
A bleeping noise rang through the room, and Fett turned to an alarm, and switched it off. Kate looked at Fett
"What is it?" she asked
"The main computer. It says I have a message"
Fett slowly gets up off his bed, and heads for the cockpit, with Kate following. They both take seats, as Fett pulls a small switch, and a familiar face comes up. It was Wedge Antilles, an old friend of Fett's.
"Hey Fett, Wedge here. The meeting point has been decided. You are to meet your contact in the Laughing Hutt cantina. There, he will give you any clearances you will need. You wont be able to leave with him, so you will have to sort out where to sleep that night yourself. Signing off."
The screen went blank, as the transmission ended. Fett leant back in his chair.
"What now?" Kate asked
"Now? Now we get ready. We will hit Correlia in about half an hour, and we will want to meet our contact within about forty five minutes. If you go in the locker in the corridor, you will see two sets of clothes. They are standard for Correlians. We have to put them on. Then, we just wait"
The 30 minutes flew by. The two had got changed, checked their equipment, and at that moment the exit hyperspace siren went off. Taking the controls, Fett landed The Sawn-off on their designated landing pad. Fett picked up his Saber, and hid it under his clothing. Fett then picked up a pistol, and tucked that into his belt. Fett then opened the landing ramp, and walked out with Kate following. Fett turned round to see Nacho, his trusty R2 droid, standing on top of the ramp.
"Remember to stay alert" Fett said
"Yes sir" Fett thanked the maker who having a language chip inserted into Nacho
The ramp rose again, and the two walked into the bustling streets of Correlia. Fett looked up at Corellia's picturesque sunset, and smiled.
The Laughing Hutt was not hard to find. It was a small Cantina, but was well advirtised. It was also quite close by, meaning the two arrived a little early. Finding a small booth in a corner, the two sat down.
"Is he here?" Kate asked
"Don't think so, not yet" Fett replied
"Do we know what he looks like?"
"No, but he will be wearing a brown flight jacket"
"Well, that narrows it down, doesnt it?"
"Don't worry, I'll just scan him"
"Oh yeah. Keep forgetting that you are a J.."
"Don't say it round here" Fett interupted
"Why not?"
"Because we will then lose our cover. If someone then chases us, we wont make it off planet in time. This planet still has Imperial forces on it. They are trying to get the planet back, but even now they have enough troops to stop someone leaving"
Fett stopped speaking as a man in a brown flight jacket sat down. Fett looked up at the man, and immediately recognised him.
"Wedge?"
"Oh, that's rich. I have known you for most of your life, and you have to ASK if it is me?" Wedge joked
"Why are you doing this? Become an infofmer?"
"Nah, nothing like that. Just been passing, so offered to do it."
"Okay. Anyway, to business"
"Right. Here is a passcard. This will get you into the base. They will then give a retinal scan, but you are in the database, so there wont be a problem. Just remember, they will not let you into the base until morning"
As Wedge speaks, he slides a card to Fett. Not looking down, Fett slides it under the table
"Thanks"
"Don't thanks me, I'm just the delivery boy. Oh yeah, General Borat wants to speak to you about your rescue. He was contolling the assault on Klatu moon, so isn't that chuffed"
Fett smiled, and slowly got up.
"You on planet for long" Fett asked
"For now, yes. We have been stationed here for now"
"Cool. I'll see you tommorow some time then"
"OK, see you soon"
Fett and Kate then left the bar.
Back at The Sawn-off, Nacho is tinkering with the engine. Fett meanwhile, is sitting on a wall. Kate walks up to him, and sits next to him.
"Engine problem?" She asked
"Not really. Nacho found something loose, which could have caused problems later. He decided to sort it out now, rather than have problems later"
"Okay. What are we going to do about sleeping? In the ship?"
"Unless you have a problem with that"
"No, no problem"
Fett smiled at her, and put a pair of sunglasses on.
"You do realise it is dark, yes?" Kate asked. Fett points at a couple walking by
"I did it because they are walking past. I don't want to be recognised. Remember I am on more wanted lists than you"
"Really? How do you know?"
"Because I check them. Found out I am number five on Caridia, the highest Jedi. Quite fun reading"
Both of them laughed. Kate slowly gets up, and begins to walk back to the ship.
"I'm going to get some sleep"
"Okay, night" Fett replied"
Fett turned to watch her leave for the ship. He then turned his head slightly, to see what appeared to be a swoop bike race.
They are getting a bit close to us...
Suddenly, one of them banks sharply, and head straght for Kate. Fett jumps up, and starts to run in their direction, but is too late. The Swoop speeds by, scooping her on. Fett, without stopping, runs into the ship and pulls out his own swoop. Fett jumps on, and turns to Nacho.
"Nacho! get this ship running, and catch me up!"
Fett then speeds off in pursuit of Kate's capturers. Fett counts how many there are. Five. Fett can see that the lead one has Kate. Fett hits the Nitrous Oxide, catching the bikes up in no time. Pulling out his pistol, Fett fired off a few shots and the closest Swooper. One blast hits the man straght between the shoulder, killing him and sending his Swoop plumetting to the ground. Fett then starts firing his cannons on the front of his Swoop. The shots pound into the head of the next Swooper, causing it to explode in a mass of brain, blood and skull. The headless Swooper's Swoop then proceeds to fly straght into the side of a building, causing it to explode. Fett then draws up to another Swooper, and pulls out his saber. Fett ignites it, and aims an upward swing at his opponent. The blade cuts through the front of the Swoop, and continues straght through the drivers stomach. Fett looks at the remaining attackers, slowly gaining on them Just two left... Fett thought, as he holsters his saber. Fett aims his blaster cannons at the rear Swoop, and opens fire. One shot hits the bike on an engine, causing it to jump forward, smashin into the front Swoop. Both Swoops explode, sending Kate flying off the front, freefalling to the ground far below.
"Sithspit!"
Fett quickly sends his Swoop into a downward plunge, until he is below the falling Diplomat. Fett the quickly pulls his Swoop up, and catches Kate, using the force to soften her floor. Fett looks down at Kate.
"You OK?"
Kate nods, as a roar is heard above. Fett looks up, and sees that The Sawn-off is straght above them, with the landing ramp open. Fett points the Swoop upwards, and sends it straght into the craft, just as the ramp shuts. Fett quickly, gets off the Swoop, and runs to the cockpit, where Nacho is controlling the ship.
"Thanks Nacho"
"No problem sir. What should we do now?"
"Now I want you to take us to the NR HQ. It has secure and enclosed landing pads, so we will be safe there until the morning"
"Roger roger" The little droid replies
Fett walks back into the Swoop, and picks Kate off the floor.
"Come on, let's get you to bed"
Fett starts helping her to her room. As he opens the door, Kate looks up at him.
"Thanks"
"No need for thanks. It is my fault this happened"
"Don't blame yourself. It wasn't like you could have done anything"
"I suppose so. It's jus..."
Fett stops speaking as Kate slowly kisses him, and pulls him into the room. Fett shuts the door behind him...
The next day, Fett entered the NR HQ slightly later than planned. As he entered the briefing room, he saw that General Borat was already there, looking quite annoyed. Quietly, Fett sat down on a chair. Borat stared at him for a few seconds, before beggining to talk.
"So, what were you doind?" He said quite angrily
"I was doing my job" Fett replied, calmly
"You're job? Since when has your job been hacking into New Republic to attack without durestriction?"
"Since I was asked to bodyguard a person kidnapped by them!"
"Why you..."
Borat was cut off by a tall man walking into the room
"General, wasn't your attack succesful?" He asked?
"Yes sir, but.."
"But nothing. ReaperFett here did was he was told to do, protect Kate Turner"
"But..."
"You may leave now General Borat"
Borat walks out, muttering under his breath. Fett jumps to attenton when he sees who the new person is
"Councillor Fey'lya!"
"At ease"
Fett stands in an easier pose, as Borsk walks up to him.
"I would like to congratulate you on your rescue. She would surely have been killed if you have waited"
"Thank you sir"
Borsk smiled, and ushered Fett to follow him as he walked down the corridor.
"We hear there was trouble last night" Borsk inquired
"Yes sir. A number of Swoop bikers attempted to kidnap Kate"
"This must mean that a number of these pirates must be still at large"
"There leader is alive"
"Alive? He must have been killed!" Borsk gasped
"I could sense him. He is alive"
Borsk pondered this new information.
"ReaperFett, we need someone to hunt him down and capture him. Would you do it?" Borsk asked
"Yes sir. I will find him"
"Thank you ReaperFett. The New Republic thanks you for your bravery. You can go now"
Fett smiled, and walked off to prepare.
