The Notorious Raider

[Darth Hades]

Tez sat there working on his T-4 rifle blaster on the Lone Wolf. After putting the scope on the T-4, he put it down with the other blasters on the desk. he stood up and walked across the room. on the walls it was covered with guns. Pistols, rifles, bazokas, gernades, etc. On the ground wee boxes of ammo. Tez pressed a button that opened what looked like a walk in closet. Inside of it was a mixture of armor mostly Mandalorian.
After putting his armor, he grabed his ion pistol and went to the quarters of the ship. Tez pressed and opened the bridge to the outside. As he was walking down the bridge he saw a dark figure awaiting for him. Tez stop midway of the bridge ready to be hostile if necessary.

[Darth Hades]

A tall slimy green human like creature appeared. Short white hair that stuck up with his grusome looking eyes, high cheek bones and a sharp nose. Wearing a long black robe(without a hood) and a golden girdle at his waist and a golden scarf around his neck.

"Relax it's me"

"Zelic? What are you doing here?"

"I have a job for you."

"But coming to Tatooine from the core. It must be important."

"Yes"

Before they talked about business more Tez advised Zelic to talk more in private in Gig's Bar, a favorite place of his. They both sat at the far end booth where no one can here them talk. They both had nothing to drink just siting at the opposite sides of each other.

"Now we can talk." said Tez

"Your the only one I can trust to actually do the job."

"So what is it."

"I want you to break a man out of prison."

"Prison? I expected more of a assassination but a prison breakout, I don't know."

"I know you. You can't walk away from a challenge like this. I'll pay you good."

"Alright. Where is it?"

"Here's the coorinates. It's in Hoth." Zelic said as he handed a disk to Tez.

"All the information is in there. Raider I also have something to sweeten the deal."

"Oh yeah what is it?"

"There's a prisoner who is said to be some sort of Sith apprentice. I found out about it an hour ago. His name is Arkan Montos."

"Anything else?"

"No. I must go now. Till we meet again."

Zelic left the bar leaving Tez all alone.

[Darth Hades]

Tez sat in the quaters of the Lone Wolf. Slouching in his chair as Tez called out his droid XPN, a translating droid yet so much more.

"Yes Sir."

"XPN play this disk."

Tez put the disk on XPN's belly and he began to share the information with Tez.

"You are to reach Hoth. The coorinates to the prison is located longitude 65, laditude 21. The prisoner you need to break out is Dazin Nork who was inprison for a secret coup with a Sith organization called the Dark Disciples."

"That explains Arkan. I must get to him before the Jedis. Anything else XPN."

"No sir."

"Good."

XPN left the quarters. Tez turned his chair around and began entering the coordinates to the computer. Tez took control of the controler and the Lone Wolf began to lift off the ground of Tatooine. The Lone Wolf flu off into space. A few moments later the Lone Wolf entered hyperspace.

Several seconds later the Lone Wolf was next Hoth. Tez took a moment to stare at it. It was a beautiful shade of blue. It was a perect place to put a prison. It was too cold for anyone to live there.

Tez landed the Lone Wolf a mile away from the prison. Landed on a mountian top as the prison was below him. Now The Lone Wolf was big enough to fit a small fighter ship which Tez took out from the back. It was was called the Desert Nomad. Tez was holding the T-4 blaster and looked through the scope. He saw the Hoth prison covered in snow. It was huge.

[Darth Hades]

The prison was a triangular shape with three towers. The three towers were long pyramids at the end of each side of the wall. Two guards were in each tower. Within the prison was a hexagon shape building that kept the prisoners. It was two floors higher than the wall that connected the towers.

A black and silver astromech droid appeared to Tez.

"Beeping and whistling"

Tez turned around and said

"Good. Get in the Nomad and wait for me there A1-A2."

"Beeping"

Time to leave my mark on this prison. he thought

In one of the towers, two guards were monitering the surcurity camaras. Then one of the guards turned and looked out the window and in the mist of the white snowy mountians the guard saw something.

"Hey Jim did you see that?" said the guard as he turned to the other one.

"What?" the other guard said.

"Something orange in the mountains."

The guards turned back to the window and saw just white mountains. Then the Nomad appeared in the window from below. Both guards became startled, but before they could act Tez got out of the Nomad and shot both guards with his blaster. Tez jumped from the Nomad through the window to the tower. Tez then went to the computers and downloaded the blueprints of the prison. He then realized that he was in Tower 2.

Tez turned to A1-A2 who was still inside the Desert Nomad.

"A1 take control of the Nomad and when I tell you become a distraction in tower 3. Until then stay here."

"Beeping"

Tez then stood there for a moment in front of the door as the task ahead awaited him.

[Darth Hades]

Tez looked at his wrist and a hologram of the Hoth prison appeared.

"Where is Dazin Nork."

The wrist replied "In cell 54 in level 2."

Tez opened the doors and walked in the silent hall. It was very bright and everything was shining white. Unexpecting a group of five guards showed up from the corner. Tez reacted first before they could and shot them all down. Tez then began to run toward the dead bodies.

Damn, I didn't expect this. I better hurry up fast.

Tez walked up to the door cautious and it slided opened and it was level 1. Fortunatly no guards were there. Tez got on a elevator and it took him to level 2. When he got out of the elevator three guards were walking away from him but didn't nocticed Tez. Tez went for his belt and pressed a button in the center and became invisible.

One of the guards turned as if he heard something. Tez stood still. The guard stared right at Tez without knowing it. The guard shook it off and continued talking to the other guards. Tez then began to count the numbers on the doors of the cells in his head.

49,50,51,52,53,54 ah here it is.

Tez waited till the guards left. When they did he turned off his stealth. Tez used his wrist to open the cell door by overwriting it. Tez went in the cell and saw a man of 35 years in prison cloths sitting there.

"Who the hell are you?" said Dazin.

"Name's Raider. I'm here to bust you out by Zelic."

"About time." Dazin said angerly.

"You only been here two hours."

"Hey I'm a very impor-"

"Shut up. I'm not here to here you whine. Let's go."

As Tez interrupted him, Dazin was shocked. Nevertheless Dazin went with him.

"Before we leave I need to find Arkan Montos."

"Whatever." Dazin replied.

Tez checked his wrist and it told Tez that Arkan was in level 3 in cell 76.

[Darth Hades]

Tez walked out of the cell but stop as he saw 20 guards running toward the cell he was in.

Damn.

Dazin began following Tez but was pushed back in the cell by Tez.

"What are you doing." said Dazin.

"Guards."

The guards began shooting. Tez reached in his belt and got several smoke bombs.

"Wait here."

Tez threw three smoke bombs at the guards. The guards began cuffing and couldn't see. Tez using his jet pack flu through the smoke and past the guards. Tez landed next to the elevator to level 3. Tez grabbed two grenedges in his belt and threw them to the guards killing them all.

Tez then ran back to where Dazin as Tez threw about 4 square size bombs to the ceiling.

"Come on." said Tez

"What are those?"

"Bombs that won't go off until I tell them to."

Tez and Dazin ran to the elevator. They got in and started to go up to level 3. As they were going up the alarm went off.

"Dazin stand behind me if you don't want to get hurt." Tez said as Dazin did as he was told.

Its time for A1 to make his move.

Tez began to call for A1-A2 on his wrist "A1 go to tower 3 and make some damage."

"Beeping" A1 replied.

The elevator stop. When the door opened Tez threw a grenedge at the guards in the hall. Tez began to shoot at guards as he was walking not being afraid of being shot. Dazin stayed in the elevator as Tez was doing his thing. More and more guards were coming. Then a explosion was heard and a giant hole appeared from tower 3 to the hall in which Tez was in fighting the guards. The Nomad started fireing at the Guards at the other side was Tez fireing. A few moments later all the guards in the hall were dead, some in pieces.

"A1 I want you to go outside and buy us some time and I'll call you back." Said Tez.

The Nomad turned a little to the side and make a hole on a wall and flu out. The Nomad began attacking the prison from the outside. Tez called Dazin to come to him as Tez started to put the square bombs on the ceiling again. Tez and Dazin found cell 76. Tez opened it. A yound man stood there. He had no hair and was very pale but not afraid in fact very calm.

"Arkan Montos I'm here to collect information from you."

"What's in it for me?"

"Freedom. I'll bust you out this prison."

"What is it you want to know from me?"

"You're a Dark Disciple. I want to know what Sith temple you are in and who is the Commanding Sith?"

"You know a lot about us. So you know I can't tell you yet you still ask."

Tez stood there pondering as Dazin was growing impatient.

"But I will tell you of me. Soon I will graduate and become a Sith Apprentice. More importantly in Naboo a powerful Sith will gather a group Dark Disciples a bring them to a Sith temple to complete their training. He will come for them in a month from this day exactly."

"Arkan why would tell him about one of the Black Operations." said Dazin."

"Shut up Dazin. Alright Arkan follow me, we're getting out of here."

Tez got out of the cell. Dazin and Arkan followed him. Tez called A1 back. The Nomad returned. All three got in. Tez resumed control of the Desert Nomad and flu toward the Lone Wolf. Tez detenated the bombs in the prison, blowing up the hexagon part of the prison killing almost all the prisoners and guards in it. Tez landed the Desert Nomad next to the Lone Wolf. They got out of the ship. Arkan looked back at the prison as it was on fire.

"Hey whats your name my savior?"

"The Raider." said Tez as he shot Arkan in the back of the head.

"What did you do that for Raider? You made a deal." said Dazin.

"And I kept it. I got him out of prison and he became free. That doesn't mean that I was gonna bring him with us. Come on let's get in the ship."

A1 put the Nomad in the Lone Wolf. Tez then lifted the ship off the mountain as Dazin stood next to him. As he was flying four starfighter from the prison appeared. It took a few minutes but Tez destroyed the ships. Reinforcements showed up from space but the Lone Wolf was in hyperspace already.

"So why do you hate the Dark Disciples?" said Dazin.

"Let's say that I don't like force sensitive people."

[Darth Hades]

The Lone Wolf landed on Coruscant next to a palace like building. The building had five towers and was very spacious, where the other buildings 30 feet away from the lawn, It is one of Zelic's houses and this is the one he was currently in. Tez and Dazin walked out of the Lone Wolf until they approach two guards.

"I 'm here to see Zelic. I here something to give him." said Raider.

"We were not informed of anyone coming to see Zelic." said one of the guards.

"What I demand to see Zelic!" said Dazin.

"I'm sorry Mr.Nork but not even you can enter." said the other guard.

Dazin was enraged and began to argue with the guards. Tez just stood there watching holding a blaster in one of his hand thinking if he should kill the guards or not. A moment later the front doors of the palace opened and a man walked out.

"Be quiet! Do you want everyone to know you are here?" said the man who turned out to be Zelic.

Zelic stood among them, He dressed in a fine red robe. Zelic then told the guards to go back to what they were doing. Tez looked at Dazin who was still very angry and Zelic noticed it too. Dazin stood there, his eyes were wide looking straight at Zelic.

[Darth Hades]

His eyesbrows were squished together that looked like it became a unibrow. Dazin's forehead were wrinkled up making a u shape. Dazin breathed very heavily with a ugly frown. His two hands became fists with vains popping out.

"Sorry about the inconveinance. I didn't tell the guards that you were coming, I didn't want them to know. But since you made such a rackus it doesn't really matter now does it." said Zelic.

"How dare you give me disrespect. I had to bust out of prison or did you forget that Zelic! Or, or did you forget how important I am!" said Dazin.

Dazin was furious. Zelic just stood listening, taking it all in. Tez watched them both without saying a word. Tez looked at the guards who stopped him earlier. The guards stood at the sides of the front doors where Zelic walked out from. Dazin then turned and pionted to Raider while he still looked at Zelic.

"And you send THIS GUY! Who gave me the most disrespect . I will not have this ANYMORE!"

Dazin put his head down and sighed trying to control himself. He still breathed deeply. Then Zelic raised his hand that pointed to his house.

"Let's go inside to discuss this, shall we." said Zelic.

[Darth Hades]

Dazin nodded in agreement and he than began to walk with Zelic to the large house. Tez followed them. When they entered the house, it was very spacious. There were small dim circle lights on the ceiling in weird patterns. The lights created a dark atmosphere that would normally would be pleasant and appeally to the eyes. Then they entered a room. It was round and had only a desk and a chair. Behind the desk was the window. THe window was wide and large. Zelic sat behind the desk.

"So, on to business. I had someone prepare your room Dazin."

Dazin turned and took one last look at Raider then walked out the door.

"You did well Raider. The news of the prison break reached all over the Republic."

"Already huh?"

"Yes, they know you did it and the reward for your capture doulbled and the Republic moved you up the most wanted list, top ten to be exact. Be on your guard."

"I'm always on my guard."

"Right, well now about your pay."

"60,000 credits."

"Yes I moved it in your account already."

"Good."

"So did you get anything from Arkan?"

"I got enough. Is there any other job you got for me?"

"No Raider, not right now."

"Alright then, I'll be on my way."

Tez left the palace building. The bridge of the Lone Wolf opened and Tez walked in the ship. Tez stood in the quarters when XPN appeared.

"Sir, there is a message for you. A1-A2 recorded it. A1-A2!"

"Beeping."

A1-A2 entered the quarters and bumped into XPN by accident which seemed to had annoyed XPN. A1 stood a few feet from Raider. A hologram of a Hutt appeared before Tez.

"Greetings Raider, congradulations on Hoth he he. I have a new Bounty. I will give you more information in my lair if your interested which I'm sure you are. This time I made the bounty hunt more into a race he he."

The hologram disappeared.

Looks like I'm going back to Tatioone to see Yabate the Hutt He thought.

[Darth Hades]

(I forgot to mention that the story is set in 317 ABY. Sorry stupid me)

Far off the deserts of Tatioone, what looked like a giant rock but as you got closer it became a rock covered lair. There were ships that were surrounding the rock. Tez landed the Lone Wolf off to the side where no ships were.

"Now let the race begin!"

The voice of Yabate the Hutt echoed the hallways of the Hutt's lair. A few moments later after Tez heard the echo a crowd appeared leaving to go back to their ships. The crowd passed Raider as he walked to see Yabate. Raider then noticed a creature was staring at him, giving him a dirty look. It was a tall green creature with ragged cloths. The creature had a pig like snout and had a mohawk.

Tomick Raider thought

Right as Tomick passed Raider, Tomick snirled at him. Tez entered the room where Yabate the Hutt was. Yabate sat there. A disgusting sluglike creature. He was eating, surrounded by his sex slaves. Yabate then noticed Raider.

"Ah, Raider, late as usuasl hehe." said Yabate

Raider just stood before Yabate as Yabate was finishing swallowing another disgusting looking creature.

"The race has already started." said Yabate

"I wouldn't worry about it."

"The man broke his deal with me. Stole some of my cargo. His name is Zen Lox. I want him back to give him a proper punishment he he."

One of Yabate's servants gave a disk to Raider.

"Aren't you afraid of your competition of reaching him first Raider?" said Yabate.

Raider pressed a buttom on his wrist. An explosion was heard outside of the lair.

"What competition."

Yabate the Hutt laughed hard. Tez turned and left the room. As he walked the hallways all eyes were on him for they knew who he was. A ruthless bounty hunter who always got the job done. Everyone knew that with Raider, failure was not a option. He always found a way to get his prey. Not only that but rumors of Raider killing Jedi which most of them were not rumors. This only added fear to his name and higher demand for his services.

Even before he became a bounty hunter he was a smuggler and and a thief which is why they call him Raider. Tez was most famous for the Seven Raids. The biggest raids the New Republic ever had. He wasn't the only one on it, there were others who participated, the Viks and the Iroquois gang, Raider was the architect of the Seven Raids.

Raider was outside of Yabate's lair. Most of the shps were on fire, no survivers. There were only 2 ships that were not harmed. Tez's Lone Wolf and another much bigger ship. Tomick stood behind that ship. Tomick walked up to Raider as Tomick's men surrounded them.

"I know that trick Raider." said Tomick

"When I first saw you Raider, I knew you would do something like this. I found the bomb you put on my ship and disarmed it."

"What are you still lurking around Tatioone? Hasn't the riches of the Seven Raids left you fithy rich or do you have debt to pay?" said Raider.

"The Iroquios gang never rests. We do what we please and we will get Zem Lox first." said Tomick

"Well since you know me so much, you already know I'll bring Zem Lox to Yabate first."

Tomick growled

"we'll see."

Tomick and his men left to their ship. The ship took off to the atmosphere. Tomick was the leader of the Iroquios gang. Raider used to work with Tomick long ago and even back then they didn't like each other.
