Kuat.

He exited the ship quickly--it wasn't his, of course, and getting away from it before it was all said and done was key. He made his way to the service desk where, to his suprise, a male receptionist stood. Human. Good, no droids. Beings were much easier to deal with.

"Show me the past two days' check-ins list." He spoke rigidly and firmly.

"Sir, I'm sorry, but I can't just let you have--" The man spoke, his voice also firm.

"Now." Arik leaned in a bit, his eyes shining through his mask to further empasize his point.

"Sir. I cannot hand over the--" The guard stopped as his eyes met the barrel of a blaster pistol which was shoved firmly into his face.

"The records." The receptionist quickly handed over a datapad to him. He read down the list of names: Paralyzer, Venom, Arch-Angel, The Flying Dutchmen--that was all he needed to know.

Dropping the datapad and reholstering his blaster, he exited the spaceport with no attention drawn--it was late, and he had made the affair go by quickly.

Hitting the streets of the fringe town, he made his way quickly towards his destination. He had gotten the address from The Client. The holo-projector clearly showed a picture of the complex and an address. Making his was there swiftly, he would waste little time.

Examing the complex--which was several stories tall--he noticed it was rather dark. Perhaps it wasn't that fully inhabited. It was archaic--it actually had front doors that required using the handle to open. He wouldn't be using them, so it was no matter.

His best route would be through the roof. The flat was located on the top floor, so roof access into the hallway would prevent any sort of checkpoint security on the way up. With his clawed gauntlets, he scaled the wall easily and swiftly. Reaching the top, he hoisted himself over the ledge and onto the roof. His footsteps made no sound.

Into the service entrance, he walked down into the first floor hallway. Taking a step into--wait. He bent his head down to examine. A small, ping-pong sized device rested on the wall below his feet. Reaching into his bag, he pulled forth a small, monacled-looking glass. Peering through it, the red line of a bomb was easily visible through the infrared goggle. Stepping over it, he examined the rest of the hallway. Clear. He wondered what to do next. Knocking on the front door would be a bad idea, he thought. Perhaps he could enter from the room next to him. Luckily it was empty.

Heading through the apartment, he could hear sounds in the one next to him--his destination. His stomach quivered a bit--this would not be easy. But it would make him rich, which was one of his goals.

Getting onto the balcony, he easily lept across it to the other balcony. Pullng forth his laser cutter, he cut a large sized hole in the glass of his door. Entering through it, he stepped into the main bedroom. Finally in.

"Ya know," the voice came from the doorway, "Ya coulda jist knocked."

There stood a man, human, his brown eyes staring straight at the masked man. The checkered shirt was partially unbuttoned and the black hair was short and combed back. In his mouth was a dark cigar, smoke billowing from it and in his right hand was a glass of bourbon. But it was the other hand which was pointed at Arik. And that hand had an Imperial Repeater Rifle resting quite comfortably in it.

"So who sent ya? Crei? Onea th'hutts? Why ya 'ere?"

"You will know who sent me soon enough," Arik spoke, his confidence unaccounted for in his lack of experience. He was cocky, that was for sure. Without a second's notice, as soon as the man had appeared, one of Arik's twin blaster pistols had been raised. The repeater was as threatening site, and he respected its presence. This wasn't going to go as well as he had planned. In Plan A, he thought perhaps he could sneak in, knock the man unconscious, and take him back the the Client. However, that plan was now out of the question. Plan B was to threaten the other to follow him by using the imminent threat of death. With a weapon trained right back at Arik, Kazaar was not likely to just walk with him. Looks like it was time for Plan C.

"You know, this will be a lot easier on you if you just cooperate," he spoke, letting his left hand still rest at his side. Very slowly, and deliberately hidden, he snaked his hand across his utility belt, fingering a small smoke grenade one it. "I don't blame you if you don't want to. It just isn't gonna end up as pretty for you, I assure you." He let the grenade pop off of his belt quietly and palmed it in his hand, preparing it for deployment.

The turbo-lift doors opened with the typical accompanying "DING."

Dakota lifted her eyes from the small paper in her hands to check the floor number. Squinting a little, she decided that, yes, this was her stop.

She stepped from the elevator and hesitated just long enough to ascertain which direction the numbered apartments ran, and then headed west down the carpeted corridor.

The rythmic "tap tap tap" of her sling-back pink pumps as they hit the soul of her feet as she walked was the only sound to break the quiet of the apartment tower on this Kuat evening. She tucked the paper into her ridiculously small silver gucci-handbag and sprayed herself lightly with a scented body mist. One must always be conscious of good body odour.

Slowing her walk to look at door numbers, she finally came to the one she had been told was occupied by Aurelias Kazaar. Bounty Hunter extraordinaire she murmered to herself, or so that ugly little ill-dressed Rodian had said. She hoped the green alien was right. She had an ex she wanted axed and Kazaar was the man she would hire to do it.

She stopped outside the room, the number a brass knockoff that was a little on the wornside. She rose on her tippy-toes to read the number - she was near sighted (or was it far sighted? She could never remember. She only knew she could see far away just fine, close up she had mole-vision.)

Blinking repeatedly and finally shrugging with the logic that this has to be the one, because she couldnt be bothered looking further Dakoka reached out a designer-label gloved hand and rapped on the door. Smooshing her lips together to make sure her 'pretty in pink' lipgloss was evenly spread on her lips, she anticipated Aurelias opening the door.

Kazaar snorted, "Oh very smooth, slick. Who wrote ya lines...sum holo writer?"

The black hair bounty hunter finished his glass of bourbon, then hefted the repearter rifle.

"You have five seconds t'tell me who ya work fer. Then th'shootin' star...ah hell.."

Kazaar aimed and shot at the masked man. Subtlety was something he still had to learn.

"Eep!"

The sound of gunfire from inside the apartment made Dakota shrink back from the door.

She looked left, then right. And decided to duck into a recess around the bend of the hallway.

Peeping around the wall from her relativly safe hiding spot, the blonde kept a watch on Kazaars apartment door.

I hope he isnt dead...its so hard to find good bounty hunters..not like they are listed in the yellow pages or something..

Arik dived, narrowly escaping the blaster bolt shot--he was incredibly quick. Without a split second of hesitation, he drew his right blaster pistol to his hand in mid-flight. Squeezing off a couple of shots, he skidded behind the bed of the room, finding momentary cover there. In his left hand, he held the smoke grenade, perched to go off at any second. Launching it into the air, it exploded in the middle of the room, smoke immediately filling the place.

"Ok, so it's gonna be the hard way," he muttered under his breath. The hard way was by far not his favorite, but he really had little choice in this matter. He pulled the other blaster from its holster, now holding both in his hands. Crouching low behind the cover of the bed, he kept still. It would soon be time to make his move, under the cover of the smoke. He wanted to give it a second to disorient Aurelias.

Kazaar gagged on the smoked as it filled his lungs, his finger still caught on the finger.

Two apartments 'na year...I hate m'life.

Diving to the ground, Kazaar fired again on the ground of the bedroom. Part of the blaster headed below the bed towards Arik. Two seconds later, and Kazaar was out the door heading towards the exit of his apartment.

The bolts whizzed above the bed and then below. Damn, he had figure out his hiding spot. This meant that Arik had no chance of suprising the man and even less of a chance on controlling the situation. The bolts struck the floor and one even singed his boot.

"And I liked those boots," he remarked under his breath as he heard Kazaar's footsteps get to work. He was exiting the room, as much as Arik's ears could tell. Jumping very nimbly to his feet and over the bed he followed the other. The smoke caused him to choke a bit, but it was begining to clear. He poked his head around the corner--

Only to whip it back as a hail of blaster fire rained down the hallway. Stupid, he thought. He should have known this guy wasn't going to leave his back unguarded. Edging his own blasters around the corner, he fired back. No answer. Peeking his head--much more slowly, this time--around the corner, he looked.

No one.

"Dammit!" He cursed, throwing his legs into high gear. He heard the sound of another door being worked...and then two voices. Another voice? A female voice? What was going on? He wondered as he stopped, holding his position behind the wall and waiting to make his move towards the door.

Kazaar came out the apartment door so fast, Dakota had only seconds to register that it was the bounty hunter she was looking for. That, and the fact that he had great taste in shirts...

She nipped out from her hiding place around the corner, and ran on tiptoes towards him..why on tiptoes she didnt really know, it was just a subconscious gesture to hide her presence from the person shooting the gun on the otherside of the apartment door.

Waving her arm to hail Kazaar (which also was wasted effort as the man was moving away from her and she was only waving at the back of his head)

"Mr Kazaar! Wait, Mr. Kazaar!"

He twisted to look back over his shoulder for a split second and Dakota managed, despite her inappropriate "pursuing" shoes, to catch up to him.

"Mr. Kazaar, I realise this may not be a good time...but can we talk for a minute?"
