Dio sat in a bar, relaxed. Not waiting for anyone or anything, he just took a long
drink and looked around.
A young girl named Kata Lyris walks into the bar, she throws back her long copper hair and scanned the bar, she spys a young man sitting by himself in a far corner of the bar, she thought she knew him, but she could be wrong... she walks overs to him "Hi stranger, this seat taken?"
*Dio looked up at the newcomer. She was tall, slender, very pretty. He motioned to the chair across from him.* "Nope. Have a seat."
"Thanks." she sits next to him
*Dio had been enjoying his solitude, but then again, beautiful women rarely came up and sat next to him. What was he going to do about it?* "So... what brings you here..." *He stumbled around for her name, which he did not know...*
"Kata. Kata Lyris. And I'm waiting for a friend."
"Oh. What are you doing wasting your time with me, then?"
"How should I know, you said I could sit."
*Shrugs.* "I don't know. I'm not much in the company department. I'm sure there's much more interesting people around here."
"I'm sure there are too, and if you're asking me to leave just to do it, don't hint at it."
*Laughs.* "No, I wasn't going to. But I do have to be going." *He tosses her a credit chip.* "Here, have a drink on me, but I really have to run." *He gets up and walks through the door.*
*She grabs the chip out of the air, kinda sad to see him go* "Thanks....um...."
*He begins to exit, but turns as she calls after him. He looks back at her.* "Yes?"
"What's your name, cutie?"
*Dio looks to his left, where a new woman has approached him. And as beautiful as the other, if not more.* "Hi... Dio, Dio Blackmoon. And you are?"
::She looks up:: "Um, me?" ::she points to herself::
*Dio nodded and smiled.* "Yes, you, beautiful."
::p lushes:: "Well, thank you... I'm Cerasi Jones, you?"
"Dio, Dio Blackmoon. And what brings such a lovely lady to such a rough place as this?"
::smiles, and eyes Kata, the Sith girl stares back. Cerasi takes Dio's arm and starts to walk out with him:: "Come for a walk with me, cutie?"
"Sure..." He throws a glance back at Kata. There was something suspicious about her... he couldn't put a finger on it, but she wasn't all that she appeared to be. "You know her?"
::she puts a finger to her lips and nods. Once they are outside she says "I'm Cerasi Jones and I work for the Republic, I'm a spy, whatever you do do NOT go anywhere with her, understand?" *he nods* "Good." *she smiles at him and starts ti walk away*
A Republic spy? Why would she tell him this? Was he being watched? Well, don't go anywhere withe Kata? He'd have to take her word for that. Something very wrong was going on...
*She turns back to him again and takes his hand* "Maybe you better come with me, that girl is tricky...."
Still suspicious, he decides that he better go with Cerasi, but keep an eye out for anything suspicious. He felt trouble... "Right... let's go."
*She walked all the way through the city with Dio and finally came to a dark alley* "Wait right here, I'll be right back..."
This was not good. Dio definitely smelled trouble; he kept his sense alert to detect any strange presence through the Force... He played a hand over his saber, tucked safely in the inside pocket of his light jacket. He hoped he wouldn't have to fight... but he was prepared.
::walks past and sees Dio standing there by himself:: "Well, hello again..."
Turns and sees Kata standing near him. In instinct, he stepped back a few feet.
"What brings you out here?"
"Oh, just passing by...." *takes a step closer to him*
Backs up several more steps and finds that he is up against a stone wall.
"I doubt it..."
*she steps even closer, behind her back she is pulling out a blaster, set to stun. She cocks her head to the side* "Why is that?"
And he had sensed correctly. There werea few options he could pursue. Try to go along with her and maybe she won't shoot. Yeah, right. Or, he could try to do a quick block and knock her hand out of the way and make a break for it. Or he could knock the blaster from her hand with the Force. All reasonable alternatives. He knew what he would do.
"I just... have a hunch."
On his last word, he kicks Kata in the knee. Her knee buckles and she is off balance for a brief moment. He summons the Force hastily and breaks off into a full tilt Force run.
"Dammit!" *she turns around, takes perfect aim and shoots him the in the back. He fell to the ground, another young woman steps out of the shadows, it was Cerasi the Republic "spy"* "That'll teach him to kick a lady!" Kata says.
Dammit. I tripped over a... leg? Of who? Cerasi. That two-timing... Damn.
"What do you want, Ms. I'm not really a spy?"
"That's none of your business." :: she walks over and and puts stun cuffs on him :: "Now, don't try to move or it will hurt very bad."
"Sure you will."
He made sure to use the Force to fill the tiny space between the cuffs and his wrists so as not to get hurt.
"And just why are you doing this?"
