Bar Crawl (Sar'Talani'Vek)

[Aleksander Miles]

Alek was walking around Nar Shadda having lost his father's clans men that were supposed to guard him. He was now wandering on his own his armor hidden under his trench coat the blasters and various other pistols still in their places. Stretching backward he looks around noticing a cantina nearby he shrugs and walks into it pulling a hat he had acquired recently pulled low over his violet eyes a general give away to anyone who knew about his father. Looking around he made his way towards the bar leaning against it he gestured the bar tender over. "Give me the strongest stuff you have." He leans against the bar lightly as he rests his head lightly.

Talani was sitting at her usual table in the corner with a full view of the bar. The door to the staircase leading to her apartment above the cantina was to the left of her booth, and there were two dancers sitting with her. One of them was an Echani and the other was a Togruta. The two dancers were giggling at some witty remark she had made, and Talani pretended to be interested in whatever it was they were saying. Over all, it was shaping up to be another boring day. Same damn planet, same damn bar, same damn group of deathstick and spice addicts showing up to harass her, it was honestly getting a bit old. The Chiss was craving something more exciting as she leaned back, kicked her feet up on to the table, grabbed her bottle of liquor, and slide an arm around the Echani beside her as she took a sip from the larger, half empty bottle.

As Alek sat at the bar some fool walked over to him and pushed him from the side. Normally anyone else would fall over from the surprising push but Alek simply swayed with it his eyes slowly rising to lock on to the male Gamorrean who snorted out something about him being to young rolling his eyes Alek pulled the hat off setting it on the table and sliding his trench coat from his shoulders dropping it to reveal his armored form with two belts crossed over his chest. Resting against the front of his body and his sides were various pistols along with a pair of shoto style sabers. Turning to the Gamorean the young man suddenly rocked forward slamming his forehead into the Gamorean's face and knocking it out. Turning he almost glares at the rest of the cantina his violet eyes almost glowing with anger as he does before he returns to his seat downing the shot placed in front of him as he tapped the bar top muttering. "Give me the bottle."

Talani watched the short exchange with a bit of disappointment. She had been hoping for more of fight. It would have at least given her something entertaining to watch, which would have been a welcome change. Unfortunately for her, Alek finished the Gamorrean off so quickly it wasn't very entertaining for her. She noted the wide array of weapons he had on him, which admittedly made her a bit curious. Sure people came into her cantina armed all the time, but never that heavily armed. [member="Aleksander Miles"]

Alek took a deep drink from the bottle and sighed stretching himself backward a bit his violet eyes almost gleaming ferally in the light as the Gamorean finally started to move another two moving to stand near the young man all muttering and snorting to each in their own language. Reaching out one of them grabbed the young man's shoulder and spun him around. Feeling the hand on his shoulder and the spinning motion Alek moved with it swinging his right hand hard adding an influence from the force to slam his fist into the Gamorean as the other two grabbed him and almost threw him across the room causing him to knock a table over rolling to his feet the young man grins undoing the two belts he hands drops them on the ground moving towards the Gamorean's. As he moves one of the various cantina patrons reaches towards the belts only for one of the Mando guard who had caught up placed his pistol against his head shaking his head. Turning back they watched the young man move forward to fight.

Well, as entertaining as this had become, it was time for her to intervene. She didn't want them getting blood on her nice white floors. She untangled herself from the two dancers that always seemed to have their hands all over her and stood. The young Chiss walked towards the center of the bar and yelled.

" 'Ey! As entertaining as this little brawl is, take it outside! If any of ya bastards bleed on my floor, I'll slice your karking head off, got it?" She called, causing most the cantina to turn and stare at her. Many of the regulars in the bar knew just how serious she was, and a few of the new arrivals stared at her with wide eyes as she threatened the group. She had her fair of weapons on her as well, mostly consisting of vibroblades and throwing knives stuffed into sheaths sewn into the clothing she wore. There were three small knives around each of her fore arms, a vibrosword slung across her back, two vibrodaggers at her waist, one in each boot, and several throwing knives concealed in sheathes strapped to her thighs. All in all, she definitely looked like she meant business. [member="Aleksander Miles"]

Alek stopped moving and turned towards the woman before he shrugs and offers her a bow causing the Gamoreans to decide to charge him. Spinning he used the force drawing his lightsabers to him from his belts and swiping them across the two of them using the force to create a bubble around them keeping their blood in the bubble as he threw them through the cantina door and into the street dead. Switching off his pair of black cored violet sabers he clipped them onto his belt before offering her another bow and moving towards the bar to get his drink.

Talani followed him over the bar and stood beside him. She turned to him and smirked a bit as she leaned across the bar, gesturing for the bar tender to hand her one of the bottles on the shelf behind him. The Chiss unscrewed the cap and took a sip from it before once again turning to Alek. "Where'd you learn to fight like that kid?" she asked curiously, studying him again now that she was a bit closer to him.[member="Aleksander Miles"]

 

[Aleksander Miles]

He turned his back on her lightly taking his belts from one of the Mando guards pulling the cross belts over his shoulders and clicking the belt part into place and the center clip as well. Turning back to the woman he looked her over grinning lightly as he gestured towards his guards. "The bare knuckle brawling and shooting from them the blademanship from one of my father's friends." He pulls the bottle to himself taking a deep drink as he chuckles lightly.

[Sar'Talani'Vek]

"Okay, next question... Are you old enough to be in here?" she asked with a smirk. He looked fairly young, but looks could be deceiving, honestly she had no problem serving someone under age, as long as she knew about it before it came back to bite her in the ass. She was a smuggler after all, the law didn't really concerned her much. Talani grinned as she threw her head back and chugged a good bit of the bottle in her hand, waiting for a response from him.

 

[Aleksander Miles]

Alek glanced at her before he chuckled and shock his head stretching lightly. "I am probably not old enough to be honest but I need a drink." He stretches again and takes a deep drink of it his eyes slowly calming as he looks over at her his eyes carefully examining her as the Mandos lounge against the bar nearby.

[Sar'Talani'Vek]

"So what's with them?" she asked, gesturing to the group of Mando's. She wasn't that familiar with Mandalorians, and didn't really see many of them in her cantina. After witnessing that small fight though, she was determined to learn a bit about this kid. He had caught her eye with his fighting skills, and he wasn't bad looking either, though she was a bit hesitant to flirt with him since she didn't know his age. Wouldn't do to get herself in trouble for flirting with a kid. [member="Aleksander Miles"]

 

[Aleksander Miles]

He glanced over at them before he sighed and leaned back lightly shrugging before he sighed leaning forward as he nods his head. "Have you ever heard the name Aedan Miles?" He was aware not everyone was aware of his father but he was still going to give her a chance to reply if she did know of him that made things easier.

[Sar'Talani'Vek]

"Not at all. He someone important?" she asked, slamming her bottle down on the bar and turning to face him. "Wanna move over to my booth? It's a bit more comfortable than sitting at the bar."

Talani didn't even give him a chance to reply, she simply gestured for him to follow her as she walked over to her usual seat, bringing her bottle of liquor with her as she did. The one she had left sitting on her own table was almost empty anyway. Many of the regulars in the Smuggler's Den were convinced that she had a liver of steel due to the amount of alcohol she could consume without problems. [member="Aleksander Miles"]

 

[Aleksander Miles]

He shrugs as she starts to walk away and turns to follow her his men moving to follow before he waves them off taking a seat on the booth seat he leans back taking a long drink from his bottle. "Ehh that depends on what you call important honestly. He used to be a prominent pirate lord then he became leader of a Mandalorian clan thus those four follow me around daily." Alek shrugs and leans back lightly gesturing as he mumbles. "Sense I feel this is going to be asked eventually I am 17 years old."

"Ah well i don't feel bad for corrupting you then. By the time I was your age I had a daughter, had watched both my parents die, and was employed with one of the Hutts' gangs," Talani replied, as if it was the most normal statement in the galaxy. She waved away the two dancers that were approaching the table. Right now she wanted to be alone with Alek. He had caught her interest and that was not something that was easy to do. "Name's Sar'Talani'Vek, or just Talani. I assume you've realized by now that I own this place." [member="Aleksander Miles"]

 

[Aleksander Miles]

He glances at her raising an eyebrow lightly as she mentions corrupting him and grins giving her a half bow lightly. "Oh corrupt me? How do you intend to do that Talani?" He was truly intrigued by this woman she seemed to be sure of herself even though she had been through so much it was truly interesting. He took another deep drink from the bottle in his hand and set it on the table as he turned towards her having noticed the dancers coming towards them.

[Sar'Talani'Vek]

"I might pay some of the dancers to keep me company when I'm here. It makes me look important and it keeps me from getting bored, sometimes. Though playing with them does get boring sometimes," she winked as she said this, taking another sip from her drink. "As for corrupting you? Well I intend to make this the funnest night of your life. After all you look like you don't get to go off on your own much," she explained, gesturing towards the guards. She would have likely killed anyone tasked with guarding her if it meant they had to follow her constantly. The Chiss valued her privacy a lot. [member="Aleksander Miles"]

 

[Aleksander Miles]

He chuckles glancing at the dancers before looking at her noticing the wink he grins to himself and leans back gesturing towards the guards. "They aren't half bad honestly I mean they don't get in my way constantly and train me to do things." He gestures them towards the bar so they could drink leaning himself back farther in the booth his eyes half closed.

"Eh, I couldn't handle it, but that's just me. I like being alone. Causes less problems, but the occasional person to spend the night with is nice to have," Talani grinned a bit. He was only 3 years younger than her, she had no problems flirting with him. It wasn't that bad after all. She'd certainly made worse decisions in her life than this. She drummed her fingers against the surface of the table and asked him another question, "So, where you from then?" [member="Aleksander Miles"]
