Barfights Hurt Like A Beach (Seth)

[Doctor Azure]

The Dirty Beach Bar and Grill, Chroma Zed​

​

Lorane sighed and shook his head in mock-disappointment as he walked into the Dirty Beach. Bar and Grill suggested something a bit nicer than the literal. The majority of the inside was, in fact, a bar with a few grills behind it. Both the local denizens and random tourists came in here, simply because the food was amazing. And maybe because the drinks could kill a bantha.​

​

As it was, a bit early in the morning, the majority of the bar was empty. Besides Lorane himself, there were a couple of people who looked like the types who tried to hit the beach early, which was why they were hitting the food and drinks early. Otherwise, there was a man sitting in a corner cleaning what looked like a small-caliber blaster rifle. Nothing new or particularly exciting there.​

​

Oh, well.​

The doors open and a young man walks in, his bright green eyes looking around. His eyes stop on the man kn the cornor of the room for a moment before he walked over to another table andsat down. He pulled ohh his hat and set it down next to him. Seth glanced over at the man cleaning his gun with an uneasy look in his bright green eyes.~that guys trouble ~ Seth thought to himself.

Lorane chuckled a little bit as he began drinking. The man who'd just walked in looked like something out of a novel, with the hat and the bits of what looked like lace sticking out of his sleeves. The Chiss shook his head and looked back at the man who had his half-disassembled gun and a rag. People like him usually had a backup weapon, and there was no doubt that somebody so casually flashing a disassembled weapon probably did.​

​

A small blip on his mental danger sense definitely made him feel more confident in his assessment of the situation. And he could tell that the guy who'd just walked in had arrived at the same conclusion. Good.​

Seth sighed and made sure his own blaster was on his belt. Waveing over the bar tender he ordered a drink. Seth looked at the man again this time catching him loking at him. "Can i help ya" seth asked

 

[Doctor Azure]

"Honestly, I doubt it. Unless you can deflect bullets, or maybe do some kind of that Jedi magic bullcrap, I think I'll just have to shoot that guy into next week's hamburger meat."​

​

Lorane grinned easily as he drew his slugthrower and checked it. Full ammo. Good. He cocked it just as the man in the opposite corner of the room pulled a repeater and aimed it at the Chiss' head. It looked like he had practice with quickdraws, but not with actually aiming. Mostly judging by the fact that the only blaster burn so far was on the wall about a foot above Lorane's head.​

​

"Okay, y'know what? Just shoot him. I'm not wasting bullets on this idiot."​

Seth sighed and stood up " Now now ,some of us want to enjoy our food and drink with out a gun fight" He said placing a hand on one of his pistols. This was enough of a threat to make the guy turn his attention on Seth and shot at him. Seth let out a soft grunt as the shot found its way into his shoulder. " Damn it!" he hissed drawing one of his own pistols and shot the guy who had shot him. ~this is why i stay away from people...~ he thought.

"I'd be lying if I said I enjoyed drinking without fighting too often."​

​

Lorane grinned wildly as three bullets hammered into the other man's brain, and a blaster shot hit his chest, burning through his shirt. The top-hatted guy was down with a bolt to the shoulder, and bleeding. He slipped an arm under his shoulders and helped him up, grunting with the effort.​

​

"Don't get how he shot you. Just lucky, I guess. Good for him, bad for you... Of course, much worse for him now since we shot a bunch of holes in him."​

"Thank ya kindly mate... How... ever he managed to hit me he get me good." Seth said grabbing his hat.

 

[Doctor Azure]

"No problem... I'm a doctor, and that man happened to have a rare disease that made him think he could shoot Doctor Azure in the middle of Golden Coast itself. Clearly, I cured him of it."​

​

As he brought the top-hatted man out the door and began walking him to the clinic, Lorane grinned and looked at him.​

​

"Nice shooting by the way. Name's Lorane. Or Azure. Lotta people also just call me Doc."​

​

[member="Seth Harkness"]​

 

[Seth Harkness]

" Thank ya kindly Doc, I'm Seth Harkness" he said with a soft nod and a smile then a cough " By the stars above this hurt"he sigh grimacing in pain.

[member="Doctor Azure"]

 

[Doctor Azure]

"Yes, blaster wounds through the shoulder do tend to hurt. Least it's easy enough to get rid of, though."​

​

Lorane glanced at the top-hatted man, and then decided that his next question was worth asking, considering how he was dressed.​

​

"You're not spiced, are you? Makes it hard to give you painkillers if y'are."​

[Seth Harkness]

" What? NO! Oh stars no.. I only drink once a week. My Music Career would crash and burn if i got into that mess." Seth responded shivering in pain " I just hope this doesn't hinder my music in some way..."

[member="Doctor Azure"]

 

[Doctor Azure]

"You'll be alright, Seth... Not like it's a lightsaber wound or anything. You're just burned a little deep."​

​

Lorane half-dragged Seth up the stairs and into the clinic before sitting him down in a chair and going to grab a bacta pack and a medseal. He walked back and pulled the torn sleeve of Seth's jacket off the burn so he could drop the kolto and medseal on it.​

​

"Eh, I think that's all I gotta do. Kind of hard to get a blaster wound infected this fast."​

​

[Seth Harkness]

" Thanks, I would hate to lose my ability to play my Violin. Good thing it won't my bow arm that got shot " he laughed softly.

[member="Doctor Azure"]

 

[Doctor Azure]

"Blaster wound wouldn't have disabled your arm, most likely. Learned that the hard way."​

​

Lorane went to what was supposed to be a medical fridge and grabbed a bottle of Gargle Blaster as he pulled up a chair and sat in front of Seth. Popping the cap out with a short knife from his pocket, he grinned.​

​

"I'm assuming you do something other than play the violin. Don't get anybody who's not either a tourist or doing some mercenary work 'round here. Even the tourists are usually mercs or gangsters, honestly."​

[Seth Harkness]

" I'm a Musician and a Pilot.. But I normally hang around areas that has less people.. I don't like crowds " he said sighing a little.

[member="Doctor Azure"]

 

[Doctor Azure]

"You're really not a merc? And somebody pointed you, an outsider, straight to the Dirty Beach?"​

​

Somebody must have been seriously stupid, or seriously wanting to steal something from this guy to send him to Golden Coast in the first place, let alone into that specific bar. Anybody paying attention knew that this city was a shadow world of its own. People disappeared, or came back home from here either scarred or paranoid as hell.​

​

"Tell me who sent you there. I'm going to shoot them. Bringing random people into this town..."​

" Whoa , easy Doc.. I came on my own. I like visiting new places. Didn't know this place was this bad.." he said blinking " Don't like strangers much?"

 

[Doctor Azure]

"This clinic we're sitting in right now is a safehouse for criminals. That bar you were just in does back-room weapons trading. That church or whatever it is on the other end of town runs a hijacking ring. This whole town is very suspicious of people they don't judge to be 'tourists'. You're literally in the worst possible place on the planet you could be."​

Seth blinked a few times " Whoa... ok then .. thats.. nice to know... uh" he said not sure what to say but he had turned very pale " Maybe i just better leave.."
