Leonidas walked like slowly to his rendez-vous point on the 34th floor as if he had all the time in the world. He stopped at a dead end. he brushed the long,thick black hair that was shielding his face to the side so that he could see the clearly where he was. In front of him was a door with the number 892 written on it. There were also doors to his left and his right. As instructed, he knocked seven times and entered.

He entered the dark room, lit only by a single dim light above the door. Covered in darkness at the other end of the small room sat a small, grubby old human with a Rodian standing to his right.

"As i recall, this was meant to be a private meeting" stated Leonidas with agitation.
"He's here for insurance reasons" said the man in the chair.
"Bullshit! What's the real reason he's here?" There was a pause as Leonidas established that he would have to fight his way out of here.
"Very good" said the man in the chair sarcastically "You see, even though you're young, you've made some mistakes in your life. In fact, there's a few people who would like to see you dead"
"who?"
"let's just say that 9 years ago, you should've been dead"
Leonidas clenched his fists in preparation as the two doors behind him opened as 4 men armed with various weapons revealed themselves.

Leonidas parted the hair from his face to reveal a sadistic smile as he swung round kicking a large brown haired man in the neck which ended his dark, brutal life. Ducking a swinging strike from a tall blonde man holding a crude metal kane, Leonidas tripped over a twilek wielding a blunt blade and mercilessly ended his life with a quick stomp onto his neck. Suddenly a punch from a tall man left Leonidas dizzy as he was lifted up by the two remaining men from the rooms behind him. After a winding puncj to the stomach Leonidas was hurled back into the room with the Small man and the Rodian. Only just managing to look upwards, he saw a brilliant bright blue and yellow light as the Rodian brandished a plasma torch and proceeded towards the beaten body of Leonidas that lay on the floor before him.

Quickly, Leonidas went into his back pocket and took out a very small dagger that he threw at the Rodian. As the handle hit the Rodian on the head causing him to fall to the ground an incinerate himself in the process, Leonidas leapt to his feet and ran towards the two remaining attackers. As the blonde man attempted to swing a punch at him, Leonidas dived under it and speared him into the door causing the man to crack his skull against the door handle. With his face covered in th blood of the man he just killed, Leonidas swung round and punched the remaining man square in the nose. Leonidas smirked as the man fell helplessly to the floor. Taking the blunt blade from the Twilek he killed earlier, he violently and mercilessly killed the unknown attacker.

Now fueled by his anger, he turned around and swiftly walked over to the petrified man in the chair.
"You've made a grave mistake today, Jalfree"
"I'll give you anything you want," whimpered Jalfree whilst taking a holopad out of his jacket pocket. "just, please don't kill me."
Leonidas surveyed the old man. Following a swift winding punch to the stomach, Leonidas snatched the holocron out of the defenceless old man's hand and then walked over to the burning corpse of the Rodian.
"Please... d ... don't" whispered Jalfree as Leonidas picked up the burning plasma torch and walked back over to Jalfree's chair.
"w... why?"
"Why not?" replied Leonidas smugly as he proceeded to burn Jalfree alive. His screams for pain echoed throughout the level as slowly, limb by limb, Jalfree was murdered. Dropping the plasma torch, Leonidas walked out of the room pondering the outcome of his hunted future. But for now, he needed to know what was within his newly acquired holopad...

As I wandered through the halls, I noticed the blood seeping through a room. Unusual in itself, I decided to inspect the room. I used the keycard to gain access to the room and as I waited for the doors to part, I noticed a dark figure watching me from the shadows of the hallway. As I stared into the darkness, I heard the doors open and I looked into the dimly lit room and was horrified at what I saw.

6 bodies lay together in the middle of the room and I felt sickened by the destruction that had been caused. Was this a single attack by someone or was it a brutal attack by the forces of Good? I studied the bodies and knew that four were armed guards, the others I did not know who they were.

I walked out of the room in disgust, walking towards the main chamber room of my leader and I studied the facts I knew. But as I walked, I felt a presence lingering behind me...

(Switching to first person- sorry if it annoys you)

After slaying all those petty fools that attempted to kill me i placed all their bodies in the middle of the room hoping that no-one would find them. Rarely does a person without a criminal record to their name walk down these dark, mysterious hallways of lies and deceipt. after searching the body of the Twilek, i found a key card to 883, just round the corner from where i was right now. Calmly i closed the door behind me and proceeded to my destination. Although my movements were like a shadow, my steps created echos that pierced the unholy silence around me.

On arriving at room 883, i went in and shut the door behind me as quietly as i could. I looked in disgust at the room i was stood on. A dim light, murky bluey-grey walls, a disgusting white floor and a shabby bed were the only material possesions within here. I left coruscant in search of a better life, but i have yet to get it.

I sat on the creaky, poorly made bed and looked in awe at the holopad that i had acquired. could this be the key to unlocking my father's secrets? I played the message. All my past memories kept rushing back to me as i slowly read through the holopad that was so precious to me. This holopad led me one step closer to finding out my father's secrets. One word seemed to stand out from the rest. "Tatooine". I knew that that is where i must go.

I left the room and began to walk slowly and calmly down the treacherous corridors pondering how i would escape the ones that hunt me. How will i get off this space station and get to Tatooine? What will i find there?

Suddenly, i heard footprints echoing dawn the hall. What if this was a person that was hunting me? then i should end their foolish life. but i know i'll never be able to fight my way out of an entire space station. not yet. luckily, the poor lighting provides many dark corners, so i stood in one, silently, waiting for this unknown person to pass.

To my surprise, a proud man walked past me, sure of what he was doing, yet aware of possible dangers. i'm sure he noticed me, i felt our channels meet. I listened on as his steps echoed through the silence until he slowly arrived at a place that i had become all too familiar with. There was a silent pause. Then the loud creek of a door in much need of oiling. Then a two second pause that seemed to last an eternity until it was ended by a sigh of disgust.

I continued to wait until the man went back down the hall and passed me again. I could sense the wisdom, the experience and the courage within him. But as he passed me, although he didn't see me, i looked into his eyes. I saw something deeper and darker. His pride, authority and instant respectability were hiding something deeper and darker. this was somehting that i felt too. We were on the same emotional channel. That's when i knew that he must hold a key to my future. Like a shadow, i followed...

The temptation to turn around and strike the stalker of my own was ever so powerful yet through determination, I restrained myself. Walking quietly and softly along the metal floors of the space station, I walked with purpose and with the knowledge that if the follower behind me were to attack, I would be ready and waiting.

The paths and walkways of the space station were complex to those who were new to the space station, yet someone of such great superiority in the world such as myself knew the workings of the space station very well. The twists and turns were sure to cause the stalker some problems yet every time it seemed the stalker would be on my tail.

As I begun to probe into the person's inner feelings, I knew that there was something about this person. A sense of evil and deep emotion flaring inside and I knew that without a leader, this person would fall to the same fate as others had before him. I walked to one of the lesser used corridors and stopped in a dark spot, waiting for this person to stop and I saw him wait a dozen metres away, I hoped that I could attract his attention...

I slowly and quietly stalked this unkown man through a maze of grimey corridors that were decorated only by rusty doors and endless numbers. The slow, snail-like chase ended ubruptly as the man i followed stopped in the shadows of a dark and dusty corner. I stopped about 12 paces behind him, carefully surveying the dark outline of the man that stood before me. i waited for him to make the next move. Still facing away from me he spoke with an auro of grandeur and nobility,
"Why do you follow me?"
I could not answer and stood still, speechless, for a minute before he resumed again, "You seek answers, and so do i"
"what are you a jedi or something?" i asked hoping that my worries would not be proved true
"it doesn't always take a Jedi to see what goes on inside a person's mind. All you need is to free your mind of ignorance. you seek answers, as do i. If you want them, mee me at Hades' Hive in an hour, i have a friend i'd like you to meet"

And with that he walked off, leaving me alone in an unknown maze of dark treacherous mystery. I knew that the meeting could be a trap, but then why would it be within a public place? I had to go there. But for the time being, i was alone in an area i knew nothing about except for the dangers that lay within. One line kept echoing through my head, "I have a bad feeling about this..."

The man who I had just spoken to was of great power, one who had great pain and sorrow inside him. It was obvious that this man was someone who had the power and determination to learn the ways which I have learnt. He was someone who was confused, searching for answers in a place where there were no answers, instead more questions.

As I walked away from him, I knew that this man would be watching me, waiting in patience so that he could ponder over the offer that I had given him not minutes before, yet an aura was around me. I wondered about who he was, was he one of the Jedi, or was a man lost in this place as I was? I knew that he would not follow me, for he needed the time to ponder over the offer.

I walked to my room, dimly lit and full of the darkness and hatred that I felt. I sat in the chair in the middle of the room, sitting in patience, waiting for the time when this man would join me in my plan to dominate the galaxy. He was too powerful to let him slip the Jedi, instead he would follow the Rebel ways and learn that knowledge is power, instead of power through destruction.

"BOLLOCKS!!" i thought to myself as i realised that i had gotten lost within this maze of despair. why was there no-one around? suddenly a blaster shot hit the wall behind me, maybe 2 inches away from my face. one word began to echoe through my mind, "RUN!!!!" Before i knew it, i was hurtling down the hallways at double speed due to the build up of adrenaline and my sheer will to survive.

My superior athleticism meant that as they turned a corner, all they could see was me turning the next one. My leightweight, speedy advantage meant that i managed to escape them, hearing only a very distant cry of "Spread out!" to signify that they had lost the pursuit, but i was still the prey.

For ten minutes i wandered the corridors knowing that around each corner might be the path to my death, yet it wan't. Finally, some more luck came my way i stood in sheer joy as i beheld the view of the turblift doors. but i still had my wits about me. After pressing the button to open the turbolift doors, i stood behind a nearby corner that was no more than two meters away. As predicted, a large gammorean stepped out, looking for whoever pressed the button. Finding no-one, he stepped back into the turbolift. As he did so, i quickly took of my shoe and threw it to the opposite hall near a public toilet facility about 10 metres away from the turbolifts. Hearing this, the gammorean quickly stepped out of the door and charged towards the source of the noise, only to find that, as he turned around and looked upon the turbolift doors, there stood the man that he was commisioned to kill.

With a smug smirk on my face, using the turbolift datapad, i ordered it to go to floor 111, the cantina floor. But before i could get there, i was stopped on the 54th floor. cautiosly, i walked to the fron of the doors and stood about 5 inches away from them. then, as soon as the doors opened, i punched whoever was standing in front of me and dragged them inside. Today was definately my lucky day! Not only was the person i found a bounty hunter kitted with a blaster pistol and a couple of thermal detonators, but judging by the amount of money located in his chest pocket, it seemed as if he had just received his pay. With no more interruptions to my journey, i peacefully arrived at Hades' Hive with 10 minutes to spare, wepons to defend myself, and arguably most important, enough money to buy a drink or two. But i couldn't help wondering to myself, when will my luck run out...?

As I waited in patience for the new arrival of this man, I wondered whether he was a friend of the Jedi. Such treachery would be perilous to my plans yet ofcourse I knew of several escape routes from this area of the space station. As I pondered over whether he would actually turn up, I thought back to my past and the deceit and lies I had experienced...

*Flashback*

"Soldiers! Get on the battlefield!" I proclaimed with determination and power.
"Sir, yes Sir!" They all proclaimed in unison. They men of the Rebel forces determined to defend the Death Star, yet we had already lost thousands of men. Planes whizzed off in all directions around me, the control bridge was sending orders to pilots every second yet I felt so alive in the atmosphere of the battle.

"Control, I need to send 100 men over to the Liberation forces main grounds and provide an assault on the main ships. Can you do that?" I shouted down the microphone connected to my ear.
"Sir, we've already lost hundreds in this plan, are you sure this is going to work?" An incompetent soul from the command bridge asked me.
"Are you questioning my plans and my theories?" I spoke with anger and rage now, determinded to hear the man squeam as he realised what he had just done.
"No, Sir, ofcourse not Sir! We'll send out your order right away." He said to me with pure loyalty.

*End Flashback*

I hoped that this man would turn up, but I was even more worried about my friend would had still failed to turn up. He was such a great ally yet the man was clearly unorganised and ofcourse, he lacked the skills I possessed.

I waited in patience, ready for this man to see the truth and the answers I had...

I sat at the bar patiently, waiting for a sign. I slowly circumspected the cantina, trying to find the man that i must meet whilst trying to stay alert for all possible dangers. There were many bounty hunters in the cantina, yet their reasoning as to why they were here, was unknown to me. I sat next to a depressed Snivvian that was drowning its sorrows in its drink and an Ithorian, a very rare site in the galaxy.

Whilst inspecting a group of mean looking Niktos plotting something secretly around a drink-filled table, a tap on the back from the bartender alerted my attention towards him. The bothan barkeep handed me a drink and told me that it came courtesy of a man who had just left. Confidently, i sipped the drink and imeediately spat it back into the glass due to its viley sour flavour. I smiled with the conformation that whatever happened to me tonight, there would be someone to watch my back...

As I walked out of the room, I watched behind me as my friend was given a drink. I wondered what was going on but suddenly he spat out the drink and turned to look at me. I saw him look in the direction of the bounty hunters conspiring as per usual and nod towards me and suddenly I knew what was going on.

I walked with purpose out of the cantina and slipped down the stairs with ease, making no noise to disturb the sleepers. I felt a presence behind me, watching my every step as I turned from one corner to the next, walking in directions that seemed completely random yet I knew that there was a purpose in my confusing turns.

As I stopped in the darkened hallway, I saw the man who was in the cantina and I knew that he was following me. But as I turned to continue my journey, I saw the shadows of a man run across the hallway and I hollered to my friend to check his back...

Behind him, I saw two bounty hunters with three in front of me. I slipped my blaster out of the holster and commando rolled to the corner aiming at the first bounty hunter to my left. A shot fired from behind me and I knew that the battle had begun...

Between myself, my friend and the bounty hunters...
