Relentless & Determined
This takes place prior to the current time/thread(s).
“Come on, now. That’s all you got? Hit me harder.” Luna’s arms were pinned behind her back by a large Trandoshan as its partner swung at her; its scaly knuckles making contact with her face. Luna grunted slightly as the taste of iron from her blood filled her mouth. Laughing, she looked up before spitting it all over the creature’s body causing it to hiss in outrage. “That’s right, fracker. I like a little pain. It gets me goin’ if you know what I mean.” Luna winked and felt her arms being twisted harder behind her back causing her to wince slightly at the movement. It started out as a night in “The Rusty Hydrospanner” which was one of the few places Luna re-frequented on Nar Shaddaa. The stink and filth of the planet weren’t going to stop her from having several ales. But then again, nothing usually did.
Happy, the young Smuggler’s snarky astromech had protested about her going out after dropping off the smuggled shipment of spice earlier that day. But she had promised that she wouldn’t get herself in trouble; that, clearly, hadn't gone as planned. After copious amounts of ale and a handful of pain tablets later, she found herself in an altercation with two large Trandoshans. Normally, lucid, she would have kicked both their backsides but as drunk as she was, it didn't happen. At least until she had been knocked around enough to bring some form of sobriety back to her conscious form.
No one had even looked in her direction as the pair roughed her up. Which was all fine with her, as she planned to kick their ass. As the blood sprayed Trandoshan leaned in to grab her from the other in pure rage, Luna brought up her leg and gave a powerful kick to its solar plexus causing it to reel backward hissing and doubled over in pain before tripping over a chair and dazing itself as its head made contact with the corner of a booth table. The other, however, wasn’t going to let up so easily. While its counterpart was out cold, its powerful grip still had Luna’s half-drunken state. Letting go of her long enough to quickly snatch around and pick her up by the throat quicker than she could react, it lifted her already long and lean body off the floor; looking up at her as it squeezed tighter.
“Oh...Yeah… That’s the spot.” Her voice was strained as her fingers dug into the scaly hand that gripped tight causing her to wheeze some. But her words had been enough to not only anger it, but it must have disturbed her attacker as well; he massive paw and claw threw her across the Cantina as far as she’d go causing her to crumble into the table; the shattering sound of wood overtook her senses as she lay there a second groaning.
The Smuggler had expected some sort of recoil but instead, the two of them seemingly had enough of her taunting. She realized that it was a lucky break and wasn't in the mood to take more of a beating. Grunting some as she stood, she picked out a couple of pieces of wood that had embedded some into her skin. Spitting what blood was left in her mouth on the floor, she took a seat in the back booth where she ordered yet another ale. Watching the pretty Twi’lek waiter saunter off, she closed her right eye as she felt some blood from a small head scrape drip downwards on her face. Wiping it away, she gave a small sigh as her ale arrived and she washed down yet another pill with the cool, alcoholic beverage as the Cantina’s chintzy music droned on.
