Krews waited on the turbolift until it rose to level 5. He really did not like this part of town, which was weird because the whole town was like this or worse. The man he was going to go see was Hektor Illand, former Runner and Assassin for Black Sun. The fact that the man still lived here was a testament to the amount of courage he had, or how extremely dangerous he was. As he went to Room 507, he tried to remember how to get Hektor to answer the door. Ah, he remembered. It was knock once, then wait and knock three times fast. He followed the routine and waited. Nothing happened. Something happened then. Krews felt an instant death in the Force and then felt danger being aimed at him right after. He ducked and rolled down the hallway, igniting his blade, as several blaster bolts shot out from Room 507. Then two women emerged from the room and Krews knew that Hektor was dead and that these were assassins. They began firing at him, but he deflected their bolts, until they threw a small detonator at him ran the other way down the hall. It exploded and Krews went flying out of the window and crashing onto a parked speeder below. Safi and Conrad would be able to see this from their vantage points, but they would notice familiar faces and a familiar speeder van that was pulling up. They would recognize these men from the diner firefight earlier. The men got out of their van and began to go after Conrad and Safi, while Krews lay, unconcious, on top of a speeder.
Chaz yelled over the roar of a hundred speeders and blasterfire. "The way I figure it kid, they can't shoot if they're dead! Go for it!" He hoped he wasn't sending the Jedi to his death. He would just have to hear it from Krews about how he had to be more safe with people's lives. Yeah, a lecture from the guy who had gotten them in this mess in the first place. He continued to fly the speeder at a dangerous velocity, but veered closer to the gang speeder, so the kid would have a better chance of survival. They were on the highway, which was bad because there could be tankers and their could be transports flying low and slow. Chaz cursed aloud as he saw that they were coming upon a large tanker now. It was funny how things only appeared after you were thinking about them. "Fellas, we got a problem!" If they slowed down, they would die, but if they continued at the rate they were going at, there would be a rather large explosion on the 6:00 news.
