Eldorack walks into the bar and glances about with DOG not far behind. He walks to the bar tender "bring a bottle of beer, a cup, and a bowl of water please." He finds an empty table and sits down waiting.

Nadia walked into the bar slowly and looked around. After a few minutes she spotted someone sitting in the far corner of the room by himself. Drawing her weapon she walked toward the table abruptly.

"Where is she? I know she's here," Nadia said as she looked around the bar again. Suddenly as she stepped forward closer to the mysterious man she was startled and stumbled backward as DOG noticed her weapon and lunged at her. Hissing slightly Nadia reconsidered her position and put her weapon back into it's sheath.

"Forgive me," She said slowly, glancing at dog, "May I sit down?"

Eldorack stand up and gestures for her to sit as DOG calms down. "Please sit."

Nadia smiled slightly as she looked Eldorack up and down. He was quite attractive. Slowly she slid into the seat across from him and picked up his beer. She swirled it around several times then took a drink.

"I'm looking for my sister..." She said slowly, "Have you seen her? She's missing..." Nadia's voice trailed off as if she were suddenly distracted. She stared up at the dim light above for several minutes without saying a word. Then, as if nothing had happened she looked back at Eldorack and waited for a response.

Eldorack looked at the beautiful woman, "I know of no such thing." He motioned for another beer. "What brings you here, if I may ask."

Nadia looked up at Eldorack in dismay then rested her head down upon the table, "I said I was looking for my sister..." she said hopelessly. "Don't lie to me... I know she's here... how else would I have found this place?" Slowly Nadia removed her cloak and showed Eldorack the Amulet around her neck.

"Surely this looks familiar. My sister has the other half of it," Nadia said, hoping to convince the Mercinary, "Please... I just want to talk to her..."

Eldorack looks up, "and what if she is here, why do you come to me." He looks back down and starts to spin his bottle in circles.

Nadia picked up her head and looked at Eldorack briefly, trying to determine what type of game he was playing. Suddenly she snatched the bottle he was twirling and tossed it toward the other side of the room, nailing the bar tender in the head. The loyal worker was tossed to the ground as blood flowed freely from an open wound in his head. DOG quickly growled at Nadia who in turn, being tired of the incisive whining of the seemingly mangy canine, picked him up by the collar and tossed him across several tables. The dog smashed into the wall head on and promptly fainted upon impact.

"I have much to offer," said Nadia at last after thinking for several minutes. Slowly she pulled out a data pad which displayed a total of nearly 150,000 credits. She showed it to Eldorack for just a moment then placed it back into her boot. "I promise you the amount displayed in full if you take me to my sister."

With all the commotion going on that Nadia was causing, proving to all that witnessed She was a force to be reckoned with, the up-turned table to Her left caused the woman to glance towards it, as the Ebony bladed bastard sword's lifetaking edge pressed unnoticed against the artery that supplied life between Her head and Her body. With the slightest pressure, Nadia's focus was instantly brought back into check, as the cold blade released the slightest trickle of blood from the beautiful womans neck. The power of the amulet's self defence was arching, ever-so-slightly against the sword, driving it directly into Mockadanes prone victem.

"Miss Raine... let me assure you that your pressence here is not without purpouse," Mock's voice was just loud enough for Her to hear , "The only reason you were able to dock on this place is because I had reason to speak with you." The large man felt, rather than seen, Eldorack's vissad was uninitiating the threat of the mico-fissure aimed at this person who caused pain in his dwelling.

"Your vessel is currently under Ion cannon supervission, with two 105 mm turbo-lazer bateries, that will reduce your chances for exit to nil." He spoke to the woman with great remorce in his voice, "So we can talk peaceably or we can get buisy! ... And by the way" , Mock's fingers slid slowly into the womans hair at the nap of her neck and griped with a sharp pain, "if you ever touch DOG again ... Ill take it personally!"

Nadia froze. How could this brute have known that she was going to come here? More importantly why did he allow it? A million thoughts raced through her mind. Most of them not even her own. She wished to see her sister. Why were these people hiding Morgan from her? She'd only come to speak to her. It was as if these men thought that she would hurt her sister. Nadia shook her head in confusion. It was unreasonable for them to be treating her this way; she'd done nothing to deserve it.

"What do you want from me?" She snapped as she remained still. Trying not to upset the large man until he at least released her from his blade, "I have come to see my sister. I have no quarrel with you. What crime has she committed that you've had to imprison her here?" Nadia thought for a moment as she shut her eyes, "Why have you allowed me to come here...what is it that you want?"

In her current condition Nadia could not understand. Suddenly she could not comprehend what she and Morgan had been battling over for all these years. It was as if all of the sudden she was a child again and needed to protect her younger sister from harm. As usual Nadia's strange actions could not be explained, not even by her. Still she waited for Mockadane to release her...if that indeed was what he was going to do. Even now she feared that he would imprison her as he did Morgan...

Nadia kept her sword within her sight.

Eldorack looks at him and shakes his head saying no. He looks back at her, "And how do we know that you have no intention of hurting your sister in any way."

He looks back at the bar tender and orders him another drink and looked at the large man next to him. "Do you want one" but he shook his head no.

He looks at Nadia "and you?"

Nadia's heart pounded rapidly as she became more and more angry with every passing moment. Her breaths were short and heavy as she contemplated what to do next.

"Kill him..." came the whisper, "do not let him keep us from what we came for...."

Nadia twitched at the sound of the voices again, it had been so long since she'd heard them that she thought they had been vanquished. But there was something else, the voice was now singular...not many as there had been before. Just one, and it was definitely masculine.

"How??" She said out loud frantically. Mockadane and Eldorack both looked over at her strangly, "How did you survive???" She addressed the voice.

"Yours is not to question..." it answered her, "Do as I say or I shall bring the Angel of death upon you and you will be slain where you stand."

Nadia gulped slightly then shut her eyes. A bright flash of light emitted from the Amulet she wore then a slim beam of energy impacted Mockadane upon the forehead, placing him in suspended animation. Leaning forward slowly Nadia carefully stood up from her seat. Spinning around quickly she tore Mockadane's sword from his hands then quickly heaved it toward Eldorack then slid across the floor in his direction. As the Mercenary leaned forward to dodge the blade Nadia swung her right arm up and struck him in the jaw, sending him airborne. Eldorack flew backward several feet and crashed through a table, landing on DOG.

Nadia's eye's narrowed as she walked toward Mockadane quickly. The large man was still frozen in place, but Nadia knew that she would not be able to keep him that way for much longer. As she walked past the table she had been sitting at earlier with Eldorack she snatched the large beer bottle in which he was drinking from and smashed it over the head of Mockadane. The large man stumbled backward several steps in a daze. He was no longer under the Amulet's hold but before he could get his barrings Nadia grabbed him by the face and with one arm lifted him off the ground.

Nadia was using the power of the Amulet to enhance her strength, this became painfully clear to Mockadane as he was dropped suddenly then kicked in the ribs and sent flying toward the other side of the room. Taking a battle stance Nadia took her place half way between Mockadane & Eldorack and waited for them to strike.

Sliff watched as the mayhem unfolded from a table some distance from were the three combatants stood. The crashing of glass and the flashes of light from the odd necklace sent Sliff into an animated posture next to his table. As he watched, he swung his tiny fists, punching at air as if he too were part of the action. It was quite a scene for the little Carean to behold. It wasn't new to him. He had seen plenty of bar fights in his day's, but a light show! This was his first ever.

Even though the two men were his dear friends and all, Sliff was pretty sure they would get things under control. Then all the sudden, Mockadane just stood there like a big lump and let the mean ole woman disarm him, then she hit him over the head! Eldorack was no better off. He was on top of "Dog." He knew that without looking from the yelp he heard when he landed on the mutt. This wasn't going as Sliff had planned. By now, most of the people had cleared the bar. Sliff sighed.

As the trio stood panting, watching each other with lethal intent. Waiting for the other to make a sudden move. Sliff couldn't take it no more, he had seen enough. "They need me!" Sliff muttered to himself. So he walked up to the three and stood in the middle of it. He felt like a ref in a fight gone wrong.

"OK...Time out!" Sliff proclaimed as he looked at the woman then to Mockadane. Sliff held up his stubby little finger and pointed to Mockadane. Sliff furrowed his brows at the big man as he addressed him.

"That serves you right you big ole clump! Pulling out knives and sticking them in people necks and stuff! You should be ashamed of yourself." Sliff said in a scornful way as he turned and looked over at Eldorack. Then his expression changed as he looked at the lovely woman in front of him. A smile formed on Sliff's face, almost from ear to ear.

"You have to forgive Mock. His business here took a sharp decline and all, so he's a little up tight right now. He doesn't mean to over charge people and all. Well, for the food and drinks, but he has a few debts he has to pay off or they'll come and get him. And his ship, ya know that one that's kinda beat up looking when you landed in the docking bay? Well, that's Mocks. It desperately needs repairs and stuff. That's why the over charge. Don't worry, he dose it to me." Sliff rolled his eye's, then shot Mockadane another fierce look. But the three seemed to pay Sliff no mind.

Sliff then out of the blue, walked up to Mockadane and looked at him with his mouth gapping open. Not in the eye's, but in the forehead region. He could see a score mark on the big mans forehead! Sliff turned his head slightly with a bewildered look on his face as he studied Mockadane's forehead. The three still stood in a defensive posture. But in reality, only moments had passed sense Sliff had interrupted them. But to the three, it seemed much longer.

Then Sliff abruptly turned to face Nadia. With wonder in his eye's, he questioned her. "How did you do that...?" Sliff almost cut his words short as he craned his head forward. His eye's seemed to take on a saucer look to them as he starred at the Amulet around Nadia's neck.

"Hey, that's look's just like the one the woman I was talking to the other day was wearing!" Sliff exclaimed with excitement in his voice as he tried to recall her name.

The small black glass vial that rolled off Mockadane's fingertips, broke into hundreds of ebony shards, the instant it struck the ground. Nadias attention was immediatly drawn from the small figure whose voice trailed off into silence, towards the mind numbing sound that seamed as if a crystal cathedral had exploded, forcing her to cover her face in reflex. When Nadia opened her eyes up after only a split second, the taverns emergency back-up lights appeared to tinge the now vacant bar in a soft red hue.

The only sound's Nadia could make out was her breathing, as it sounded hollow and resonated in her ears, untill Mockadane's voice broke her thoughts. Looking around frantically She was unable to makeout where his voice was coming from. The only constant She knew for sure was that looking in the last place her sword layed was as bare as her neck... the weight of the necklace's assurance was in her favor no longer.

"Perhaps your actions will warrent an oppology!" the words came sharply,...."Or shall I escort you out?"

Nadia clenched her teeth as she rose to her feet slowly. Beads of sweat began to form above her brow as she finally mustered the concentration to speak, "I'll apologize to no one!" She hissed as she ran her hand around her neck in search of the Amulet. Her mind seemed cloudy, the voice seemed even louder than before. Nadia held her head and mumbled to herself, she wondered aloud how the Mercenary could have taken the Amulet out of her possession. "It does not matter," came the voice through the confusion, it was loud and resounding...and freighting, "The Amulet is always with you just as I am!" Nadia's eyes widened with confusion as she looked around the dark room. All that she could see now were the outlines of the people in the room...they did not seem real to her.

Inhaling deeply she swung her sword around and leapt toward Mockadane. Although easily able to block the blow from the deranged woman Mockadane was still nearly knocked off his feet by the force of the blow. It was again clear that Nadia's unnatural strength was a result of the Amulet's power. As the two clashed blades over and over again weariness began to overcome Nadia. The expenditure of power which Nadia had used was indeed taking it's toll.

"If you are all powerful then why don't you help me?" Came Nadia through clenched teeth as she swung her sword down at Mockadane, who in turn looked at the woman in confusion, "you can sit around and give me orders...and threaten me... UGHH!!" Nadia was interrupted as Mockadane managed to knock her sword from her hand and kick her in the stomach, sending her reeling backward several feet. "But when it comes time to...do the work..." Nadia said as she rose to her feet slowly, "you don't lift a finger!...."

"What are YOU looking at????" Nadia's attention was suddenly drawn back to Mockadane who was still staring at her with a most confused look upon his face, "Can't I have one...decent...conversation without your constant interference?" Nadia did not wait for a response from Mockadane, instead she slowly drew her right arm backward then extended it out sending a surge of energy toward the weapon Mockadane wielded. Within moments it was knocked from his hand and sent soaring across the room. Within the blink of an eye Nadia's body was pinned against Mockadane's and her hand was wrapped tightly around his neck.

"Enough with the games," she whispered, "don't you find my mind rather crowded...?"

If there was ever a time for Sliff to move quickly, it was now! The wee little halfling dove under the closest table to get out of harms way. Sliff had asked the woman a valid question. But when he saw her eye's glaze over and a strange look cross her face, and not to mention she was mumbling to her self. Sliff knew he was in the wrong place at the wrong time. If it was instinct or just plain ole common sense, Sliff was not about to stick around to find out.

A clash of swords and fierce word's were exchanged between the two combatants. Magical light engulfed the room causing Sliff to shield his eye's momentarily. Sliff had never seen a fight as intense as the one that was taking place right before his very own eye's.

But something told Sliff there was more to this than met the eye. And then the thought hit him. "I know what's going on." Sliff had seen this kinda stuff before. Many cultures and beings on deferent worlds demonstrated this odd behavior in a display of affection for one another. "That's it!" Sliff mumbled to himself. "There in love!" At that moment if Sliff could have patted himself on the back for his cunning of mind, he would have. But the puzzle didn't stop there for the halfling. The wheels were already turning. Sliff remembered the blonde woman that Mockadane had over to his pent house on a few occasions. "And of course...The amulet!" Sliff said aloud at the new revaluation. "Mockadane gave it to the blonde woman, then to this one. Both women love him and he can't make up his mind on who to give it to! And now there fighting over him to show him who care's the most!" But to Sliff the dark haired woman was a bit crazy. Sliff could only conclude that the woman that was now fighting him, must indeed love him the most. Sliff sighed at the thought. "It must be rough being in love." Sliff the Sneak propped his head up with one hand. He watched as the two love birds went at it with a passion. The problem was though, would they kill each other in the process?

The rather large dose of glitterstem that propelled Mockadane into Nadia's mind must have been stronger than He anticipated for it affected his squat friend, bringing him into this non-demintion also. The substance, illegal in most of the galexy, Was an expensive way to try to bring a passive conclusion to the extreamly rampant womans attack in the tavern. The sound of metal on ceramic came in loud and clear for Eldorack, along with the rest of the patrons as the battle-droid burst through the doorway and came to an abrupt halt. As soon as the blaster arms locked into firing position the personal shieilding sprang to life with an ominus hum. At Eldoracks signal, the menacing looking droid, with-holding its deadly barrage of lazer-fire observed the events, along with an extreamly curious croud.

To the dismay of the big man, Nadia's Amulet was quickly fighting the effects of the Spice. With very little time to spare, the ineffectiveness of his blaster's stun-ray that bounced off Nadia due to her necklaces's enchantment, made Mockadane focus on the abilities of Morgans necklass that he knew of. Even prone to attacks ... the amulet seamed to ward off and defend its wearer. The last thought that crossed Mockadanes mind before grappling the dainty but strong woman into a hold that would render her unconsience was that he hoped Sliff would snap out of it , and get out of the way.

An almoast unbearable force coarced through Mockadanes upper body as he held on for dear life around the arm and neck of Nadia. The amulets defences were strong but could it over power the Mercinary, Mock hoped not ,because the battle-droid was observing the battle and as per last directive will open fire on the woman at the slightest utterance from Eldorack. Mockadane did not want blood shed here... but he knew the lengths that his counterpart's were willing to go to fix this problem.
