Samuel let out a sigh as he sat in the local cantina, the sound of music blaring in the V.I.P. sections to the right. The swordsman had just landed on Nar Shaddaa and found himself in the middle of a massive gun fight that claimed a lot of lives. It was nothing to him though, as a mercenary he had seen hundreds of men get cut down in battle and the people on Nar Shaddaa were scum. Still, part of him realized that this view on the lives of others was rather cold but they sealed their fate when they tried to go against him. He was just the reaper and they were there at the wrong time. Sam brought the shot glass up and downed it quickly before setting the small container down. Samuel chuckled to himself, here he was drinking and he couldn't even get drunk in the first place, the exo-skeleton that was bonded to his system maintained his body to make sure it ran at its peak efficiency as well as getting the boosted functionality of the exo-skeleton itself. It was more so for a break than anything else, he didn't want to just sit in a bar and be doing nothing, that would make him look even more suspicious. After a few minutes, Samuel set his credits down and walked out of the cantina, trying to stray from the local authorities, examining the crime. Using the crowd to his advantage, the swordsman would push through until he darted down an alleyway, this was his way out. "Perfect." |

Letting out a light grunt as he finally stepped off the ship that had transported him, letting out a few grumbles as the Bith captain called out to him while waving a flute like instrument around that R'Tik wasn't very familiar with. He'd gotten free passage, but in turn he had to listen to the songs the captain had over the last couple of hours while they moved from Coruscant to Nar Shadda, a rather scummy part of the galaxy. R'Tik came from a pretty bad part of tattooine, but that didn't seem to hold a candle to what seemed to be this planet as a whole. It's as if there was something about the place that drew all the scum over to it. It certainly needed some order to it, but that wasn't why the jawa knight had came here. Taking out a parchment, he ran his eyes over the person he'd been sent to apprehend. When another Knight was unable to bring in the one known as Kyu, the jawa quickly stepped forward to take on the task alone, thinking that it wouldn't be of much difficulty. After all, he was just chasing after some psycho who had started a mess of fights with petty thugs. R'Tik felt confident in his own abilities and he knew his blade well. Making his way through the crowds of tall people, he grumbled as he was pushed around a bit before emerging into an alleyway opposite of Samuel's, tilting his head a bit as he looked at the curious figure before figuring that maybe he'd know something about the target. He did look well versed in battle after all. Slowly moving forward, he went to take out the parchment and point to the picture of Kyu. "M'um m’aloo. Ookwass hunya?" he said as he pointed at it a few times more, watching Sam curiously for an answer. |

Samuel eased down the alleyway, his left hand resting atop the handle of his sheathed vibrosword, that's when he caught sight of a very odd sight. He had lived on Nar Shaddaa all his life, yet he had never once seen a Jawa dressed like that, like one of the Jedi order. The little munchkin removed a small piece of parchment before showing a picture of what seemed to be a pickaxe wielding monster, it was cleaving through a crowd of people which made Samuel chuckle. "So, you're who they sent to get her eh? Well, I was expecting someone a bit...taller." The swordsman laughed, placing his right hand on his chin, scratching it lightly. Sam's left hand would move down slowly to the trigger of his sheathe, he knew that now he had revealed himself as an "accomplice" this Jedi would have to take him in, by force if necessary. His index finger would move to rest against the outside of the trigger as he turned the left side of his body back, angling himself for a confrontation. "Yeah I know who she is. Unfortunately, I can't tell you anything...it's not exactly in a mercenary's best interest to give information when confronted with authority." At least Samuel was open with his intention, he told the Jawa he would not give up any information on Kyu's whereabouts. If it came down to an exchange, Samuel would more than welcome the possibility of confronting a Jedi, he knew that regardless of his size, R'Tik was probably incredibly dangerous. |

Staring up at Samuel as he mentioned he chuckled, the jawa seemed a bit confused before hearing the comment about him not being tall enough, which made the jawa start twitching a bit. Of all the things in the galaxy that could annoy him, commenting on his rather short stature was up there. He was a jedi knight for god sakes and he had to deal with this even after nine years of training under the jedi order. It annoyed him when he thought that someone who was fairly powerful in the force was still called runt and tiny by random strangers he didn't know. He waited for a moment before he started jumping up and down, waving his fists around angrily as he vented out his anger before going to slowly relax and grumble some. Watching as he mentioned his query so casually, he let out a light pitched groan after hearing they wouldn't give away the position. Jumping up a bit and pointing at the page again, he complained loudly before glancing back to watching a droid waddle up behind him, only a bit shorter than him. Within moments, he began to play a translator of his words as he spoke loudly in trade jawaese. "We'd like to take you in for questioning. The Knight is asking that you take these cuffs and put them on." it'd say before shooting out a pair of cuffs at Samuel's feet. |

Samuel blinked in confusion as the Jawa began to confer with the smaller droid that had approached them. After a moment, the synthesized voice explained that the Jedi wanted to take him in for questioning and ordered that Samuel place the handcuffs on. The swordsman crouched down, picking up the handcuffs before tossing them over his shoulder, he let a grin move across his lips as he dusted his hands off. "No thanks. I don't have time to waste." Without another word, the powerful exo-skeleton of Samuel would crouch, giving a huge boost of power to his quadriceps and calf muscles before he launched himself into the air. With a quick side to side jump off the walls of the alleyway, Samuel would climb all the way to the top before casually strolling on the roofs. "Ah well...too bad. Work comes before fun." The swordsman had a sort of pout on his face as he thought to himself, there he had a Jedi in front of him but his duty to his employer was more important. |

Seeming quite annoyed as he watched Samuel just throw the cuffs, R'Tik already knew the cyborg samurai's answer right there. He let out a few grumbles as he'd have to fight just to get the information he wanted. As Samuel leapt up onto the rooftops, R'Tik looked to the sides of the alley way before jumping from wall to wall until he had climbed up as well. The droid looked up and protested complain, but the jawa had no interest in actually paying them any mind. He was here on a job and he'd see it done. Once he was on the rooftop, he turned around to see Sam standing there, pondering on the best way to handle this before using the force to grab a few small rocks from the ground and toss them towards the Samurai in order to get his attention. Once he'd made himself known, he'd move a hand to unclip his saber shoto before letting it shoot out, sending a statement there that fighting or surrender were the samurai's only options. |

Samuel was about to leap to another rooftop when he felt the impact of a small stone crashing into the back of his right shoulder. Te swordsman turned his head to see the pint-sized Jedi Knight whom had pursued him all the way up top. "Persistent little bugger. Well now, guess I can't have this guy following me the whole time..." Samuel grinned as he turned to face the smaller warrior, the Jawa ignited his saber, it was pretty intimidating even though the weapon was being wielded by such a small person. Still, Samuel knew he had earned that lightsaber because he was deemed good enough to wield it, this was going to be interesting. In response, Samuel widened his stance and in a quick draw, he unsheathed his Vibrosword, holding it out before him and making sure the blade was centered and extended forward slightly, This way he blocked any immediate attacks from the front, meaning his opponent would have to work at either moving to his sides or trying to use enough force to batter the blade aside. "Well, it seems I'll take this dance after all." Samuel wondered if he could focus on a purely physical confrontation, the Jedi were masters of the force so he knew to watch out for their magical skills. If it came to it, he would have to employ a skill of his own to even things up. Samuel usually started his duels off with holding his sword with only his left hand, to test the skill of an opponent; the fact he was using both from the start meant he knew not to take this lightly. The crimson blade had a low hum around it from the kinetic energy streamed through it and the additional force abilities imbued into it. Any Jedi/Sith alike would be able to sense it once it had been drawn. "Alright, whenever you're ready." The samurai smirked as he stood before, what he believed to be, a worthy opponent. ![]() |
