The tales begins out in deep space with a raggard Tie Fighter Pilot named Jak professing to his
squadron mates that he’s very bored out here in the cold darkness. His fellow pillow agrees and
asks ‘whose bad side did we get on to pull *this* assignment... Babysitting… It’s embarrassing,
Jak”. Jak then responds again with “I’m bored” and his squad mate has had it with him, asking him
to quit complaining. Being out here alone is bad enough. He then tells Jak that he’d much rather be
out here keeping an eye on “this thing”, whatever it is, than chasing rebel x-wings over half
the galaxy. Besides their flagship called “the Adjudicator” should arrive in just half an hour.
Things then go silent. Then suddenly a massive blast of fire erupts from Jak’s
tie fighter sending debris flying in all directions.
Jak’s squad mate is horrified and wonders who could possibly be out here
all the way in restricted space. As he turns his ship around he notices a large vertical vessel
approaching him with an ominous set of weapons complimenting it. Although he doesn’t yet know it,
it is Boba Fett and slave I. The squad mate then shouts out one last call of despair,
but Boba Fett swiftly blows his Tie fighter to shreds with a single blast of his canons.
Boba doesn’t have any time to hang around though as this isn’t his primary mission. He’s on a very
time sensitive bounty contract to retrieve an irreplaceable holo recording for a mysterious,
very high ranking figure. He has only 30 minutes remaining. Will he manage to reach his true target
in time? Barrelling towards the nearby wreckage of a star destroyer where he believes the holo
recording to be, Boba immediately finds a spot to land his ship. The famed bounty hunter then steps
out of his ship with his blaster firmly drawn and scouts out the area for more information.
With the clock very quickly ticking down, Boba lowers himself into the depth of
the Star destroyer wreckage and has no idea what he will find when he enters.
Twenty-five minutes remaining.
As Boba trawls his way through the mangled ruble he spots something creepy and ominous
in the door frame directly in front of him. It is a stormtrooper clinging to the ceiling above him
but he’s not alive. It is just the mere echo of a former trooper who has turned
to nothing but a skeleton in armor. Boba isn’t taking any chances with the skeleton
because although he doesn’t believe in the supernatural, why take the risk.
The bounty hunter blasts the decrepit skeleton straight through the chest and the the body is
torn bone from bone, clearly having grown fragile after being abandoned here for quite some time.
Boba then takes one glance back at the destroyed skeleton but will never dwell on it again. Moving
forward, Boba is abruptly ambushed by a pack of Mynocks who fly right into his Mandalorian armor,
giving him quite the fright. Being the fearless fighter that he is though, Boba draws his blaster
and begins a rampage through the Mynock horde and scorches each of them to nothing more than
a pile of ashes. Unfortunately for the hunter this isn’t the end of them and more rush towards Fett.
Finally getting fed up with the foul creatures, Boba pull out a noxious blast charge full of
toxic gas and primes it ready to blast… Boba won’t be affected by the noxious gas as he
has his own filtration system within the suit making this a very effective strategy.
Twenty minutes remaining. Boba then continues rushing forward with
seemingly no end in sight but he finally reaches a door which he things he can slice through. Boba
then shows off his often hidden computer slicing skills by attempting to hotwire the system.
What Boba Fett doesn’t realize however is that there is something ominous standing behind him.
Fifteen minutes remaining. And now that ship that the two tie
pilots said were coming to pick them up, called the Adjudicator,
is barrelling towards his location and is ready to bombard the ship nothing but rubble.
Back inside, Boba is once again ambushed but this time by a horrid abomination of a droid which
fired it’s blaster cannons on the bounty hunter and forces him to take evasive action immediately.
Boba blasts every droi he can but he is eventually knocked over by the savage mechanical beast,
one of the rare times a droid has gotten the better of Boba Fett. He
then pull out his grapple and manages to pierce the photoreceptors of the droid,
finally putting a swift end to the mechanical menace. And not to mention,
while this is happening The Adjuciator is still racing towards the wreckage with Boba Fett inside.
Boba then shreds the cabling out from the droid he just killed and uses its head as
a swinging weapon, finally taking down the last enemy. Boba Fett has faced horrific challenges
by this point and is honestly wondering whether the job is worth the credits.
Ten minutes remain.
Boba finally manages to slice the door open and is limping his way forward
when he finally spots the illusive treasure. The Data tape storing the holo recording is
inside a little compartment and the bounty hunter is able to make quick work of it.
Boba retrieves the prized data chip and is ready to return it to his mysterious
client so that he can finally wash his hands of this horrid place, hopefully never to return.
Five minutes remain.
Boba then rushes out back towards the surface and makes it to the final ladder of the star
destroyer and at last gets a glimpse of his escape. If he doesn’t make it off world in
these remaining five minutes he’ll be nothing but a pile of floating dust.
He then ignites his jetpack and bursts out through the last man hole up onto the planet above.
Finally, the bounty hunter has safety in sight.
One minute remains.
Bobe then sprints with all of his might towards the slave I
ready to blast off away from this wretched place.
Thirty seconds remain.
Boba enters the cockpit of the ship and puts his hand on the
accelerator with adrenaline rushing through his veins.
Five seconds remain.
Boba then punches it and just barely manages to scrape off of the surface of the planet
while a red fury engulfs the area behind him and destroys the entire destroyer where he
just stole the data chip from… Now the only question is, who is Boba’s mysterious client.
Back on Coruscant Boba Fett returns to his client who is a stern, top flight military
man for the empire. The man blags on about how impressive his ship was, even all mangled up and
broken like it was. He called it the Anya Karu, after a lover he had recently lost.
He then reveals to Boba that the droids inside were his personal hunter trainer droids,
which were gifted to him by a Rodian Warlord… He didn’t know what they were supposed to be
hunting OR training… so he just used them as bodyguards inside the ship.
He then asks Boba “Were they still intact?”...
Boba then coldly says ‘not when I left”.
The imperial is saddened by this but he accepts that Boba had to do what he had to do.
He says that Captain Aron Harcourt was a hero of the Empire once and because of this he was granted
certain privileges… That was until his ship went down over that barren world and he was blamed for
the loss. Captain Harcourt was not at fault for this loss as it was attacked by a team of rebel
operatives and taken down. The empire even had an inquiry into the ship’s destruction but it was all
just for show, they needed someone to blame and Aron Harcourt was that man. Even with thirdy years
experience as a commanding officer, the higher rungs of Imperial leadership had no problem ending
his career, rather than admitting they lost one of their capital ships to a team of rebel saboteurs.
After this lengthy Rant, Captain Harcourt asks Boba Fett if he managed to collect his little data
chip from the vessel and boba silently places the box on the table in front of the captain. Harcourt
is enamoured and tears fill his eyes as he opens the box, with a holo recording of his lover
playing. Over and over again his lover repeats how much she misses him and hopes to see him soon.
The captain then tells boba that they met while he was still in the academy but three years ago
she sadly passed away… Although it is such a small thing, Captain Harcourt could not
let it be scrapped with the rest of the ship since its all he has left of her.
He then says that when he gave the order to abandon ship after the rebel saboteurs
took it down there was no time to go back for it.
But he knew that if anyone in the galaxy could bring it back, it would be Boba Fett himself.
Now after this is where things take a turn for the worse… Much worse. Boba asks for the
other half of the money since they agreed to half up front, after upon completion.
The downtrodden captain however says that he doesn't’ have any more money… but if Boba can
overlook this shortfall, he will keep quiet and his reputation will not suffer. Bad idea.
Boba Fett gives the old imperial an ominous stare which he knows means only one thing… The
Answer is no. Captain Harcourt then pulls open an ornate golden boss and inside is a holograma
of the woman he loves. He tells himself that he’s had a good life, but ever since his lover
Janelle was taken from him… things have been so lonely. NOt to mention he is still incredibly
bitter about having his ship removed from him on what he thinks are false grounds.
Over and over the hologram plays the same message. A message of Janelle professing
his love and hoping that they can be together again… That day never came.
The captain tells Boba Fett that he just wanted to see her once again and to have her say his
name just once more, but that was never to be… He then breaks down into a flurry of
tears professing his love for her, while Boba fett’s cold blaster barrel rests on his head.
With a single blast. Boba ends this tragic story.
The message of his lover continues coldy playing as Boba Fett walks away without an
onouce of regret or remorse… That is what happens when you fail to pay Boba Fett…
