The door of the appartment came down with a massive crash as the boot kicked it in without mercy. Blaster bolts began to hiss through the air in a super hot hail of fire. A canister was tossed into the room as music began to scream in a brutal, ear-splitting scream.
Slug thrower rounds hurled through the air, dropping bodies in pools of blood. Through the mist stepped James Justice, clad in leather and dried blood, "I am here for Ryn. Where the hell is he?"
"I-I-I--" stammered one of the survivors in the room.
The spacer swiveled his rifle and silenced the man with the squeeze of a trigger.
-------------------------
"Please, please, God stop," the voice screamed, reverberating through the warehouse.
James tilted his bottle of acid back, but the smell and sound of the simmering flesh still hung in the air.
"Where is he?" James roared. "Where is Ryn? Answer me damn it!"
"God, please, I swear, I don't know," the man begged. "Please. Please, God let me die, please--"
"Wrong answer!" James barked, letting the acid spill out again on his victim's flesh.

"We've been friends a long time, Celwin," James said leaning back against the bar as he crossed his arms. "Friends for years now. I've forgived ye of a lot, I've helped ye. And now I need ye help. So tell me where me friend is and in return," his right hand produced a blaster pistol from his leather jacket, "I'll make the pain stop."
The shuddering body in front of him quivered with pain. His face was contorted, barely recognizable from how it had looked three hours ago. The mangled mess of what remained of his arms and legs were bound behind him, blood oozing out in a slow, partly cartarized sludge.
"Don't know nothin," the man managed to grumble from between what remained of his teeth.
James sighed and shook his head, "Ye had to do this the hard way, mate." He looked back to the man behind Celwin and the sound of landing blows resumed.

The crimelord collapsed in his command chair on the Drunken Angel. It had been a long hard few months looking for his brother. Endless rivers of blood had been created from victims of people who refused to talk. Spewing a stream of smoke from his lips, the spacer looked out his view port on the Drunkeenfell asteroid belt. It was a new addition to the galaxy.
The blinking on his console pulled James from his thoughts. He flipped one of the switches and listened as the young woman's message played through. It was the best lead he had in weeks, he wasn't about to let that go.
"This is James Justice," The spacer said, his disheveled, leather clad figure appeared, surrounded by empty bottles of alcohol and a burning cigarette. "I'm on me way."
A few hours later the Drunken Angel pulled from hyperspacer to Umbra, the metallic hull adorned with peeling paint and rust spots. Inside, James justice was garnishing his body with an arsonol of assorted weapons. Fortune factored the prepared, after all.
