Among the stoic and grim expressions in the back of the truck as Beck raced through the city was a particularly bright face. It was Saleen, buckled up in her seat among the row of rebel soldiers which consisted of a mix between thugs, freedom fighters and mercenaries; the line between which was often shallow and blurred.

Saleen's blond hair was freshly washed, and tied in a ponytail behind her back. Her suit and armor, unlike the ragged looking uniforms of the rebels around her, had recently been cleaned, and the duraplast plates making up her armor had been freshly polished. Her level of cleanliness made it seem like she expected to go on a parade rather than an actual mission! On her lap sat a large, light repeater connected through a cord to the power pack on her back. The weapon was adorned with illustrious and intricate silver patterns, with a dream catcher hanging on its side.

Saleen threw excited looks to the other rebel fighters in the back of the truck, making few attempts to hide the anticipation in her ocean blue eyes.

"Let's make a game; whoever kills more imps gets a month of free drinks on the force, what do you say?" Sounded the cheerful voice of Saleen, but she received nothing but odd stares and silence from the other rebels. Most of them seemed to currently be in their own world, the mind set on the battle ahead. Not to mention, although the rebels were a lot more heterogeneous than the empire, Saleen was still considered an outsider. 

Frowning, looking almost offended by the silence, Saleen turned and looked the other way with a pout.

"Fine then, have it your way... "

She muttered with an ever so annoyed tone. But as the truck finally ground to a sudden halt, and the doors were opened, Saleen was quick to unbuckle herself from her seat.

[i]"Finally!"[/i]

The stoic twi'lek Ja'vi had already jumped out of the truck. Saleen stood up from her seat before she put on her eagle helmet as she walked in a line towards the exit in the back of the truck with the rest of the rebels. Most of the rebels were lightly armored, but as Saleen jumped off the back of the truck, the metal bottoms of her heavy boots landed with a small crash on the ground!

"[b]Which way to shoot?![/b]" 

Saleen called out to the rebel fighters as she stepped forward after leaving the truck. But a sudden, stray blaster shot just whistled less than a meter past her face, leaving a smoking hot trail behind it! Saleen instinctively pulled her head back, almost slamming the back of her helmet into the face of the rebel fighter behind her. Looking across the open square in the direction the shot had come from, she quickly nodded to herself.

[i]"Oh right, that way!"[/i]

With both hands around her repeater weapon, she rushed towards the semi-line formed by the rebel fighters as they had already begun to open fire on the bounty hunters in the distance. Finding cover behind some plasteel containers, she mounted her repeater on top of the crate in front of her as she crouched down behind her weapon. It was difficult to see through the smoke that filled the square, but through the clouds, she was able to spot humanoid forms on the other end.

Assuming what she was looking at to be bounty hunters, Saleen pulled the trigger of her repeater as the targeter in her visor guided her aim. The muzzle of the repeater immediately began to spew forth a hellfire of dangerous blaster fire that now roiled across the square and into smoke on the other side!

On the other side, Harkan would soon experience blaster fire coming out through the smoke and whizzing past her! The fire seemed sporadic, but no less dangerous, as sparks flew and molten metal flew everywhere as the blaster shots hit the terrain and architecture all around her. One blaster shot flew straight past Harkan's face, passing mere inches from her eyes and breathing a wave of heat into her face. The blaster shot continued past her, until it hit a trandoshian bounty hunter just as the lizard emerged out from behind his cover to attempt to take a shot at her. The lizard was torn aside as the blaster bolt hit him in the lower left of his throat. The fire immediately burned away a large chunk of flesh around the impact area within a split second, before the kinetic energy passed further through the lizard's throat to explode out on the other side. Charred flesh and burning blood was splattered all over the wall behind the trandoshian bounty hunter as it immediately collapsed to the ground, clutching its throat in a brief expression of pure horror and utter confusion before life left his body!
