Mos Eisley

*It was just another typical day for Drake in the city of Mos Eisley full of fun and excitement and plenty of fights. Personally Drake liked this town more than others since it was a big spaceport town which meant a lot of the smugglers and other criminals came through here. The more he found the more credits he made then the faster the got back out the sooner he could send them right back again for more credits.

Today just so happened to be one of those days where Drake found himself facing off with an angry group of Thugs that knew him well. Oh it had started with him just chilling in the cantina and what ya know these guys found him and started to shoot up the place. Of course there was a bigger reason behind it probably because he had caught these guys smuggling weapons and he ruined what would of been a very profitable shipment. Though to most of the screaming customers or the ones that also join in it probably just looked like they wanted to kill him for no good reason.

So now here he was hiding behind a table in the corner of the cantina as shots were flying everywhere and of course he occasionally came up from behind the table and fired off a few shots. This was just wonderful he was all he kept thinking to himself because he was in a cantina full of thugs that probably had heard of him or knew and some that were just blood thirsty. Now the best part was that most of them were shooting at him and well he was pinned in the corner of the cantina so what could he do there wasn't much he could do. He had brought down a few unlucky people but he was just out numbered by well who knew how many he didn't have the time to count them all so basically desperate times called for BLOW STUFF UP.

So he grabbed a thermal detonator from his bandolier and for a moment prayed to whatever god may be looking down on him probably shaking his head. He then tossed it over his head and into the crowd where he heard most of the shots coming from and listened as an explosion went off. Oh the screams he heard mostly of pain but there were surprised ones in there. Though as they all started to scream in pain and at each other Drake took a moment to look over the table to see what was going on. By the looks of things he ended up blackening one part of the cantina with plenty of thugs now lying on the ground sadly the group he had wanted to get wasn't in that area and they were now arguing amongst themselves and a few other thugs who had joined them.

Drake never being one to pass up a moment where he could take the advantage quickly jumped over the table firing both his blaster pistols while charging at the small group. Now really running at the enemy would probably be a very very bad idea and would make most people shake their heads and say he is screwed. The only thing was that he knew some of them were just cowards and would run once they saw that he was starting to kill them. Of course he was right as three of them ran out of the cantina with one staying behind yelling at them. Sadly for this man he ended up not seeing Drake come right up to him until he had a blaster pistol pointed at his head.

Oh the look in that man's eyes was one of pure hatred and he was just tempted to try and shoot Drake and he actually was raising his blaster pistol to do so. Except he hadn't noticed Drake's second blaster pistol was pointed at his gut and it was set to stun. So before he could fire off a shot Drake stunned the man and though he could get a pretty good payment off of this guy. Now with the cantina in a mess and the firefight being over and done with Drake spun his pistols and then holstered them. Drake was pretty happy with himself that was until he heard the sounds of a blaster rifle being pointed at his head and as he turned around to see who it was he saw that it was the good old bartender with a very mad look on his face.*

=Bartender=
"So who is going to pay for this mess you have caused in MY cantina".

*Drake was at a loss for an answer and began to look around the cantina hoping that someone would come along and save his ass. When of course he found no one he began to rub the back of his head and started to laugh which quickly faded as the bartender's expression did not change.*

Ha ha....ya about that um well I guess i can pay for the explosion damage but for the rest.... *Drake quickly looks around again and sees the thug he had stunned and TA DA an idea came to him.* Why don't you take this guy and make him own up to the rest I am sure there are plenty of people looking for him and I am sure he must have something maybe some credits to spare. I know why don't I look for you since you have been so kind as to not shoot me yet.

*Drake with his hands up slowly knelt down and began to search the thug for ANYTHING that could save his life and what ya know luck was on his side for today. He ended up finding the thug's personally datapad and he furiously began to search it and in his bank account he found money had been transferred to it ahead of time specifically to kill him. Of course this news wasn't anything new because the local Hutt crime lord has been out for drake's head for some time now which was why Drake really took note of avoiding his place. though with the credits on this datapad it should be enough to pay for the cantina and so he quickly jumped to his feet and handed the datapad to the bartender who took it but with a suspicious look on his face.*

Well there ya go and have a nice day. *As soon as the bartender had lowered his weapon Drake ran out of the cantina and down the streets of Mos Eisley hoping to get away as fast as he could and he made a mental note not to return to that cantina for a LONG time.*

*A unmarked shuttle enters orbit and heads down to the planet below. It looked like a simply civilian ship and not one from a wealthy civilian ether. On board was commando team Delta. Their job was simply the Empire wan't to make sure this planet being one the greatly benefited the Hutts remained weak. The Hutts were becoming to powerfully and needed to be smashed. The shuttle set in a small hanger just inside Mos Eisley. Delta squad checked there weapons and the shuttle ramp lowered it was time to end this pitufully "spaceport" town.*



*One of the commandos quickly ran forward and fired a rocket off towards a spaceport across the road. As he reload the other two can forward and opened fire on people as they fled. A few even tried to fight back with hand blasters even one rifle yet they were no match for Delta squad and quickly were silenced. *

*As Drake was running from the cantina he suddenly heard explosions and gun fire and his most favorite sound people screaming. Then when he turned a corner he saw what was the cause of it which he didn't like at all. There were some commandos shooting things up everywhere to make things worse they were armored and he was not. This was a slight problem but he was sure he could deal with it since hey how bad could these guys really be. So Drake took his last thermal detonator set it and then threw it right at the commandos just to get their attention.

Though as much as people thought he was crazy as they ran by him Drake wasn't as stupid as most people would of thought he was. Oh no he had a plan and that was to shoot this place up before these idiots ruined his business. So Drake took out both his heavy blaster pistols and his around a corner putting his back to the side of a building. He then activated the comlink inside of his helmet to call in some back up just in case things started to go bad around here.*

::Hey um Raven could just maybe please send some back along over to Mos Eisley. It appears to be some Imperial commandos are feeling like causing some trouble down here and you know what that means.::

*Raven is Drake's good old partner in his mercenary work though she was normally the lazy one who stayed back at the base doing all the easy work she normally did end up saving Drake's butt more than just a few times. This could be one of those times since she had access to his ship and his entire assortment of weapons plus a long range com device so she could contact anyone of their friends if they were near by. For now he would just have to deal wit things on his own which again he was fine with since that meant more fun for him. So now with possible back up on the way Drake carefully peeked around the corner to see the fireworks go off and maybe a few flaming bodies go flying.*

*One of the commandos who was firing and the civilians slide to grab the thermal detonator and threw it into the sky. At the same time the commando holding the rocket launcher took aim on Drake and moment later fired. It didn't matter if he had cover, at least the rocket should end the cover. Then the third and final commando ran towards the direction of Drake just as the rocket hit. He then opened fire opening to kill their opponent. They all knew where it came from via their HUD's yet not who, yet.*

*Drake watched in disappointment as one commando took the thermal detonator before it exploded and threw it into the air. That was at the time a good idea just that he didn't expect them to be that good so this was kinda bad. To make things worse Drake saw another commando aim his rocket launcher in his direction and so that meant RUN big time. So he quickly ran further into space between the two buildings he was hiding and dived to the ground just as the rocket exploded causing part of one of the buildings to collapse.

The collapsed building ended up blocking his way out at least where the commandos where so that meant he was out of the fight for now. Though just after the explosion he heard gunfire in the area he had been in and he heard people screaming in pain and shots being fired back from those who had weapons. So this either meant they didn't know who had thrown the thermal detonator or they really just wanted to kill everyone. Either way Drake had to find a way to get back into the fight and so he got up and exited from the other side and began to search for a ay back to the street that the commandos were wrecking.*

The commando that had moved forward to fire upon the area the thermal detonator came from laid down a spray of laser bolts before the smoke even cleared. It didn't matter he he could see any targets his job was to wreck the place so he would.

Meanwhile, the other two commandos went back to attacking civilian's and wrecking the spaceport. Another rocket was fired into fuel barrels which exploded violently catching a new building on fire. Laser bolts were also fired by the other commando at any living thing that moved. Women, children, bonded slaves that couldn't even try to flee, they all would share the same fate. *

*As the smoke began to clear the commando would probably become aware of the many bodies laying around most of them having had blasters and had tried to fire back. Though what the commando probably didn't see was there was a person sneaking up behind him under the cover of a stealth suit. This person would sneak right up behind the commando and when they were directly behind him they would do a spinning kick directly to his head. Should the kick hit it would hit with such force it would possibly dent the man's helmet and the person's stealth suit would flicker for a moment revealing a woman who had done it. Though she would only let herself be seen for a few seconds as she went under the cover of the stealth suit again and moved to a new position to prevent the commando from finding where she was.

As this was going on Drake had ran for a short while until he got tired of looking for a way around the buildings so he decided to go over them. He quickly went up to the shortest building he could find and activated his fibercord grappling hook and quickly climbed up the building. He then brought the fibercord back into his gauntlet and took out his blaster pistols again. From on top of the building he looked down at what was going on and saw that the commandos where still distracted shooting stuff up. So he took this time to jump down from the building but as he did so he fired four shots at the commando with the rocket launcher.

As he landed he rolled into a crouch and continued to fire at the other commando who was shooting innocent people now. First this had just started off as protecting his work but now these commandos were going to far and so now drake was even more determined to beat these guys. So after he had gotten off a few shots he got to his feet and ran for cover as he continued to fire at the commando.*

*The commando near the now cleared smoke took aim on those who had taken up arms against him. He fired his rifle blasting one in the head and one in the chest when almost out of no where his head was hit hard from behind. He turned to fired upon who ever it was the hit him and in the brief moment of being kicked and turning three blaster bolts hit in in the back. His armor was strong and the scum in this spaceport didn't have very strong weapons yet his head was bounding in pain and he has made a fatal error turning away from a enemy. Before he was able to turn back he was hit with more blaster fire that got through his armor and he fell to the ground

The commando holding the rocket launcher then fell, One of the four shots Drake took slammed into a rocket he was loading and exploded. Clearly that solider was done for. *

"Kriff!"

*Yelled the final commando as most attention was now brought onto him. He looked at the others for a second seeing their armor broken and blood pouring from the cracked metal and groaned, this was not good.

Reaching to his belt the last commando grabbed the thermal detonators (three) and smoke grenades (three) he had on him. As he fired his rifle with one hand he set their times to one second and threw the smoke grenades and one thermal detonator into the sky and threw the other two detonators at the fallen commandos. One to each to hide this disgraceful defeat. The exploded in the large blast and as the smoke clear he was gone. Yet not into thin air he had entered a building gone through it and out the back door and into another building. It turned out to be a mechanics shop which might be helpful. As soon as he entered he sent a message back to the shuttle that would be relayed back to the admiral.*

::We ran into issues and now only one I remain. Will be working to get off planet yet, do not sent assistance this will just be an embarrassment to the whole Empire if it is know we failed. ::

* Meanwhile, outisde the chaos was in no way over. A few drunken fools were still fighting force knew what yet it could only help the commando's escape. *

*As the smoke cleared and Drake heard some explosions go off he knew something must have happened to the last commando. Though he wasn't sure since the last thing he had seen was him pulling some grenades out and tossing them. So when he looked out from behind the cover he had taken the commando was nowhere in sight. This wasn't good since now there was a loose commando running around town and that meant he would have to waste his time looking for him. First he would have to check in with raven to see how things were going on her end of things.*

::Hey Raven how did things turn out or did the people beat you to the commando down there?::

*A few minutes went by without a response though some fighting could be heard over the com. Then after a few minutes things quieted down and then there was static but then he began to hear Raven's voice.*

=Raven=
::Things are all cleared up down here though there were a few people who still felt like fighting but they are no trouble for now. What about you did you take care of the other two?::

::Ah ha ha...funny thing that story is you see one kinda got away.::

=Raven=
::*Sigh*...Did you at least see where he went?::

::Sadly no but I will look for him don't worry you know me I wouldn't let some random guy destroy this old place.::

=Raven=
::Alright just be careful and I will provide as much help as I can from the air.::

*With that raven cut off the transmission and Drake knew she was already heading off probably to his ship that she must have taken here. He knew he could count on her to help him out when he made slight mistakes and that was what he liked about her always cleaning up the messes he caused around town. Though now he had a commando to hunt down and that probably wasn't going to be easy since they were most likely well trained in survival tactics.*

*The room was lit for a brief moment as the commando fired his rifle at an old mechanic as he ran out of a service room. The commando had no idea what species he was yet clearly was just barely capable of normal motor skills. As he looked around he soon found a hover truck that would have to be used to get out of this place and head to another spaceport where he could steal a ship and get off this pitiful sandbox of a world. He got in the truck and started it. The dead mechanical was not a good one for it sounded horrible yet as long as it worked that was all the matter. The work shop doors opened and he flew the hover trick out of the building and flew away as fast as the old truck out go. He quickly stopped the vehicle as he spotted a transport. It was risk worth going for even if it brought on attackers. He leap out and shot his rifle at the two in front of the transport. He then walked up the ramp as he female pilot walked towards him hearing the commotion. She was shot as well and he made his way to the cockpit. He never knew what species they were ether their whole bodies where covered in robes. The commando then started up the ship. *

*With a sigh Drake was just about to get going to look for that commando when suddenly a hover truck burst out of a building. This made him jump for a moment but then he saw the driver was the commando and for a little while he started to run after the truck but he couldn't keep up with it. So that meant his last hope was to contact Raven and hope she was at the ship.*

::Hey Raven I told you I would find the damn fool and just to let you know yes he is on the run but in a hover truck so I kinda can't keep up with him. Would you please do me another favor and just maybe blow him up or something.::

=Raven=
::I just got the ship in the sky so I will see what I can do.::

*Raven took the ship and flew over where Drake was and she could just see him jumping and waving his hands in the direction the hover truck had gone in. By the time she could see what hover truck Drake had been talking about the commando had already boarded a ship and was probably aiming to take off. So Raven readied the blaster cannons and attempted to fire at the ship's engines to prevent the commando from getting very far.*

* A Holo message comes through to the commando unit on tatooine. The message is on a secret coded channel. As the Holovid come to life to the leader of the unit, he would see his empress standing in red robes and hooded as she always did when speaking to her troops and in a hash tone*

:: Commander a update tell me all goes well::

*The ship is hit before the engines even fire up allowing him to go no where. The commando punched the controls as his comlink went off. He opened it to look upon the Empress. He bowed his head and spoke.*

::Not well my Lady, we have made are goal yet survival is unlikely.::

*He said picking up his rifle again and pointing it at the ramp as it descend. If it is to die he is going to take as many with him as possible.*

*I the distance Drake sees an explosion from Raven hitting the ship. He quickly picks up the pace until he reaches the now damaged ship.*

Alright how about you come out here and maybe we talk things out over some drinks at the cantina.

*Drake stood several meters away from the ship as he waited for a response.*

*The commando places the comlink on his belt hooking it up to his helmet com. He then slowly started to walk down the ramp and aimed his rifle at Drake in the next moment pulled the trigger sending a burst of laser bolts at the man.*

I would rather kill you then go out to drink.

*As soon as Drake sees the gun pointed at him alarms went off in his head like who was he kidding this was commando not your everyday smuggler. So he quickly dived to the side firing some shots as he went trying to get the commando moving. Though shortly after he moved he heard his comlink and he heard Raven's voice over it.*

=Raven=
::I would suggest you move because he won't negotiate with you.::

*Drake rolled his eyes as that was way to late and if he hadn't been on his feet would of been shot.*

::Ya next time try to have better timing with the warnings BEFORE I do something stupid like trying to talk to a commando.::

*The commando dove and rolled down the ramp. Coming up he quickly opened fire again aiming for Drake's torso. As while shooting he stayed low and inched forward towards Drake. He took up the rifle in his left hand as he kept firing and grabbed a 9 inch knife from a thigh compartment with his right hand. *

*Drake rolled again as he was shot at put this time when he came out of it there was about who knew how many pounds of commando killing power coming at him with a knife. This meant oh so many kinds of OH NO since hey this dude was armored so what would his melee weapons do to him. Plus beating the crap out of him was again a bad idea and so he needed to find some way out of this predicament. Though him being who he was he thought hey why not lets just shoot the guy. So ducking under his rifle's aim Drake got off a few shots towards the commando's stomach before he had so in all melee mode.*

*The commando dove back as he was shot. As fell he threw the knife at Drake. He then pushed back on his hand to flip back and land on his feet. He then took out a side arm and fired three times at Drake's head. *

"Die you scum!"

*He no longer cared about pleasantries and fully forgot about the fact that the empress could see and hear everything via the com in the commandos visor.*

*The empress snarls and was not happy about this lose so soon in the war*

::I will not suffer this Commander either die like a dog or fight like the Imperial Commandos you are!::

*The com cuts off as the Empress was about to speak with the her staff on her secret base*

*Drake had to quickly activate his right wrist blade to knock the knife out of the way though as he was doing this he was starting to come out of his duck. This turned out to be a bad idea as one shot flew past his head just skimming his helmet but then he was hit full out in the shoulder which caused him to fall to his knees. Now Glaring at the commando Drake raised both his blaster pistols and fired like crazy but instead of aiming at the commando he aimed for his weapons to leave him unarmed.*

::Ok NOW would be a good time to help out here because if you can't see i am fighting a commando in close combat.::

*Drake sent out a frustrated message to Raven who then turned the ship away from the two of them which only made Drake sigh as he had no idea what raven was planning. Though unknown to him Raven activated the landing ramp and walked out onto it with his A280 blaster rifle in hand. She took aim at the commandos left shoulder aiming to make him drop his blaster rifle.*

*The commando spun out as the blasts can at him. A shot then slammed into his shoulder and he stumbled in pain. This was not good and he was under harsh orders then known could know the Empire was here. That and the Empress had not faith in him anymore. He simply grabbed a silver tube from his belt flipped up the cap revealing a red button and pressed it. It triggered the commandos armor to self destruct. There was a high pitched beeping and after three second and shock wave ways the that was left of the commando as he was obliterated. *

*At first Drake had no idea what was going on as the commando pulled something out with a red button though red buttons normally never meant anything good that was why Drake always hated red buttons. Of course his thoughts were proven as he heard a beeping sound and then on instinct he rolled backwards though didn't get far enough and was sent flying back a little from the explosion.*

Ouch. *Was all Drake could say as he lay face down on the ground. He slowly looked up to find nothing left of the commando but his blaster rifle so at least not all was lost. So he slowly got up and walked over to what ever was left of the commando and kicked the ground as he was just starting to become a good sparring partner. After a few moments Drake holstered his pistols and retracted his wrist blade then knelt down and picked up the commando's rifle. He then looked up to see Raven standing on the landing ramp with his rifle and raised the commando's rifle up into the air for her to see.*

Hey look he left us a parting gift.

*Raven just shook her head and walked back into the ship since she still never cared much for Drake's jokes. Drake just sighed as he had always said she needed to learn to lighten up. Though raised his right arm and shot his grappling hook and the ascended up to the ship. Shortly after he walked into the cockpit to find Raven already in the pilot's chair.*

=Raven=
Where to now?

Oh i don't know been thinking I kinda like this town now that its all falling a part kinda gives it a nice look.

*Raven just stares at Drake as she waits for him to actually answer her question.*

Alright head out into the Dune Sea we need to find Allen as I have some business with him now.

*Nodding her head Raven closes the landing ramp and the begins to pilot the ship out towards the Dune Sea.*

* Some time after the events of the commandos attacking Mos Eisley Allen and a squad of his men appear in town and begin to investigate what had happened here. First of all they started at the Spaceport that the commandos had landed in and they searched the ship they had landed in. It looked like a regular ship that anyone would come in on but it must have at least some data on where it had come from. Allen had sent his men in to disable most of the systems on the ship except the navigation system so they could look into where it had come from.

Meanwhile Allen went about checking what other people had to say about the attack and most of it was the same story. The commandos came from that hangar and just started to shoot everything and blow stuff up. It didn't matter who they shot they just simply killed anyone who got in their way. Most of this seemed odd as it appeared as if they had no motive for coming here. So it continually raised the question why here when they weren't even allied with the Republic.*
