"I don't know," I reply, settling back into the seat besides Jack in the cockpit. "It's really about a friend of mine, Taylor Han. He is a bounty hunter."
"So you hang with bounty hunters, do you?" He asks.
"Not really," I reply.
"'Not really,' 'I don't know', what's the story here?" I sigh.
"About a year ago, during the war on Naboo, Taylor and I kind of intercepted word that there was going to be an attack on the senator, Soriara Masachika, as in we both met defending against the same gang leader and met up that way, putting pieces together to find out what was happening. There was a Coruscant gang leader working for the Sith who had ordered for her to be killed, as doing so would keep her from an important meeting of the senate that would influence whether or not her planet Corellia would be of help to Naboo. She had the Jedi helping to protect her when we stumbled across information regarding the assasination attempt. In the end, Taylor stepped in as bodyguard while I traveled to Tatooine to gather evidence regarding the assasination attempt to send to the Jedi Temple. I found the evidence and sent it, but my ship was shot down on the return trip back, and subsequently enough, that was the time where you had come to my rescue."
"You're making that a habit," he chuckled.
"Unfortunatly, yes," I reply, laughing back.
"So what came to the meeting and the senator?"
"The senator," I started, "Did make it to the meeting and made a speech of Corellian support. Shortly after, Taylor had to fight off two different attackers in direct assasination attempts trying to keep her from returning to Corellia to deploy the troops. The jedi that remained who could help protect her were deployed to Naboo, as the war had taken a grave turn. Taylor returned the senator to Corellia, but it took a long time, and in hindsight, it was too late. By time the Corellian troops arrived on Naboo, the war was near lost. There was nothing that could be done but take what refugees they could hold and flee the planet."
"And how does that bring you to working with the senator now?"
"Well," I replied, "After the war, we got back to our jobs. The senator remarried, Taylor and I parted ways, returning to our mercenary or bounty work. Just two nights ago, we met up again. It seems as though there is a bounty on his or my hide, possibly both? I'm not sure- this droid, I wanted to get information from him to see who was ordering the attack, as the droid seemed to be one of the attackers."
"And the senator?"
"When we were chased by droids, we were chased into a banquet hall where the senator was at. Taylor was shot, and the senator took him, to her home, I am guessing." I sigh. "Perhaps we should go there now? See if Taylor can give us more information? I worry that jedi back there cut off our chances of getting information from the droid."
