"Dude, what era is this truck from? The Clone Wars? This thing bumps higher than it moves forward..." moaned Ben.
"Hey now," interrupted Brad, "It runs. Do you have a running Speeder?
"No.."
"There you go, it's better than nothing," claimed the acquisition's specialist.
"Should have ridden with Rhys; her speeder looks pretty nice compared to this thing."
"The Courier? You'd prefer to ride in a mini-van? Are you serious?"
"Yes. I'd like to switch when we start our return journey."
"Fine, fine, we're almost there..."
The truck slid through the gate and into the docking bay, followed closely by the family-sized landspeeder. Each speeder hugged the rim of the dockbay, leaving plenty of clearance between their speeders and the Galaxy. As the speeders grinded to a halt, Ben pulled out a blaster carbine. Brad frowned.
"What's that for?"
"Security, you never know what could happen..."
Brad shook his head. "If anyone sees that, we'll have security all right; space port security. Look, just stay in the truck and don't show yourself unless we get trouble. Showing off the sole blaster we have isn't worth losing an entire shipment of blasters for the cells. Got it?"
"Yeah, sure," mumbled Ben.
"Good, I'll be right back, I think."
Brad swung the door open and jumped onto the duracrete pavement. He glanced up and immediately winced. Rhys stood before him, a broad grin across her tanned face. She nodded towards his pants.
"Ahem...anything you want to zip before we go in, like say...on your pants?"
With a sheepish grin plastered on his face, Brad zipped his fly shut.
"Ah, yeah...done. Shall we go inquire about the shipment now?"
"Yeah, and before you make an idiot of yourself," replied the woman, "I'll do the talking...we just walk up to the freighter and knock on the ramp or something?"
"Um...I imagine so."
"Well, let's do that then..."
With that, the two people strolled over to the freighter, rather unsure about trader/smuggler etiquette...
