Welcome to Gaia! ::

It was clear from the beginning that Vincent, Rakish and Hal were faster then the thugs. It became even more clear when Rakish took the first shot and hit a Thug who, only seconds after being hit, fell to the ground with a hole in his chest. The attack was so 'perfect' that it exited from the one thugs body and hit a second thug, not doing as much damage but still doing damage none the less. Vincent, with his quickness, targeted the Thug that was unlucky enough to be behind a now dead Thug and was hit by the blaster shot. The Unlucky Thug was more luck then Vincent thought as Rakish shot made him double over enough that Vincent's shot missed by a bit.
The last member of their group charged in for an attack, with his War Sword in hand. He wasn't good with the blade but he did look scary with it. Also if he was lucky he could trick the men to 'flank him'. This was a trick because if they did Rakish would come up behind them and punish them. Hal attacked one of the Thugs, not the one that was shot only moments before, but a new one this time. His attack hit dealing very little damage.
Now the Thugs attack. There was only five of them now, two of which had been hurt, even though in the case of the one Hal attacked, very little damage. They all had Melee weapons, but for two of them. The one Hal attacked stayed to attack Hal. Two others, including the one Rakish shot through another Thug, went after her. The other two, with blasters, attacked Vincent.
The first one to attack was the one facing Hal, who missed the little Ewok completely.
Next to attack was the two men that were attack Rakish. The first one missed Rakish, and the second didn't fair much better as he also missed Rakish.
Lastly the two Thugs with Blasters attacked Vincent. This Thug hit Vincent doing a good amount of damage. The Second thug also hit Vincent. This was enough damage to take Vincent down.
Rakish, a little mad that Vincent had just fallen, attacked one of the Thugs in front of her. They had not Flanked her yet because they knew that if they did Rakish could have a single attack on the one that did and may be able to knock them not.
Rakish, not being able to use her Rifle this close up, and not wanting to back off because of the Thugs with Blasters, used the Bayonet on the end of her Rifle to attack the Thug. It wasn't much but if she aimed of the one she had shot before, he may go down, leaving only one threat to deal with. She hit the Thug she was aiming for taking him down. Now She only had to deal with one more and still the Thugs with the Blasters would have a hard time hitting her and not their friend.
Hal, with his large War Sword attacked again. He hit his target but didn't do enough damage to take out the Thug, probably for the better.
The Thug tried to attack Hal again. This time the Thug hit Hal and hard. It did a great deal of damage to Hal, and even made him weaker.
The Thug with Rakish attacked next, but he missed her.
The Thugs with the Blasters picked their targets, one picked Hal, the other picked Rakish, and they both fired. The one that fired at Hal missed badly. The one that attacked Rakish also missed badly.
Hal tried to put down the thug he was attacking. His attack hit the Thug, doing just enough damage to take the Thug down. Without waiting a moment longer, Hal rushed over to the Thugs with the blasters.
Rakish attacked her Thug with the Bayonet. The Hit was nice and clean but not doing enough damage to take the Thug down.
Now that same thug attacked Rakish. Almost without effort Rakish moved out of the way of the attack.
The two thugs with blasters kept with their targets. The one attacking Hal had taken a step back, just out of reach of Hal, thinking he was Hal's target, but he wasn't. Though if he was he would have Hit Hal. Instead the Thug going for Rakish was Hal's target and as he fired at Rakish, Hal attacked him. The Thug had missed Rakish but Hal did not miss the Thug. It wasn't enough damage to take out the Thug but it was enough to get the Thug focused on Hal rather then Rakish.
Now with both Thugs with Blasters focusing on Hal, Rakish had to act fast. She attacked the Thug in front of her cutting him so deep that her bayonet came out the other side.
She then quickly moved to the second Thug, the one Hal wasn't attacking, getting behind him so that he had to move back toward Hal to get away from her.
Hal attacked next. It was almost one movement from his last attack to this one, but he missed. However he could smile Rakish and the Thug behind him and got ready to change his target before the Thug in front of him attacked.
Just like Rakish planned, the Thug had seen her coming and moved closer to Hal, believing he was attacking the other Thug and not worrying about him, big mistake. At he attacked Rakish, Hal attacked him. Though he hit Rakish, he was hit by Hal from behind.
Rakish took a great amount of damage, wounding her. The Thug however didn't take much.
The other Thug shot at Hal, but missed.
Rakish, now catching her second wind, attacked the Thug farther away from her with her Rifle, but missed.
Hal, also catching his second wind, attacked the Thug in front of him, hitting him. He didn't do much damage to him but it was enough in Hal's eyes. The Thug Hal stabbed did not move, but instead just shot at Rakish. He believed he could take down Rakish before this little fuzz ball could take him out. This shot on Rakish but missed. Hal attacked him but also missed.
Behind Hal the other Thug fired at the little Ewok, trying to help out his group member. Hitting the little guy. He did enough damage that the little Ewok screamed in pain, but he did not fall. If he did Rakish would be over powered... thats what he believed in his heart.
Rakish aimed at the second Thug, the one that hit Hal and fired. She knew her shot was important. If she failed Hal may die, but she missed. Hal attacked the thug that he had been attacking this whole time. He hopped to take him down and believed that if he could Rakish could handle the second Thug. Hal attacked but just missed the thug. This gave the two Thugs a second chance. The first Thug attacked Rakish, leaving himself open to Hal again. His attacked missed Rakish. Hal however hit the Thug. Hal did enough damage to take the Thug down.
The other Thug turned toward Rakish and shot at her, knowing that she could kill him quicker then the smaller, and almost dead, guy could. He fired at her but missed her by only a little bit.
Rakish shot at the Thug. She wanted to end this but wouldn't this turn.
Hal moved in for an attack, but missed the Thug.
With a slight laugh the Thug backed up and shot at Hal, but missed him.
Rakish tried to hit the Thug again, this time hitting him and knocking him down and out.
With two of the Thugs dead and the other four out cold Rakish looked at Hal. "Grab their weapons, and anything else they have on them real fast. I'll grab Vincent, then we'll get ourselves back to the base and heal up."
Hal nodded, though all he wanted to do was pass out. He grabbed two Blaster Pistols, and four Batons, then he followed Rakish back to their base.

Eight or so hours later Rakish started to wake up. It was a slow process until she relieved she was sitting in a chair. Her eyes went wide then ejected to the lights. She looked around. Vincent was still on the table and Hal was laying on the sofa. He was all spreed out, with his one little like twitching like a dog. Rakish smiled at the cuteness then snapped out of it.
"Hal, wake up!" She said.
Little moans came from Hal as his mind battle to sleep and wake up.
"Hal wake up!" Rakish said again, this time throwing her shoe at him.
It bounced off the Sofa back and landed on Hal who jumped up in a panic. "The Droids are attack! The Droids are attacking!" He said in Ewokese as he woke up. He then looked around and relieved he was just dreaming.
"Droids? Hal you have been watching way too much T.V." Rakish told him.
Hal muttered something that Rakish couldn't hear, probably for the better. He then jumped up and cracked her neck.
"Oh Hal, did you have to do that?" Rakish asked in discussed.
"About as much as you had to throw your shoe at me." Hal said as he picked up Rakish shoe and threw it back at her, not trying to hit her but rather pass it back to her.
"Next time maybe you should wake up." She told him.
"Maybe nice time you may want to try, oh I don't know, walking over to me and lightly shaking me?" Hal replied as he went for his Tool kit Vincent bought him. "Now if you don't mind... I got to fix our Boss."
Rakish went silent, even if she did have something to say she wasn't going to until Hal was done with the Repairs on their boss.

Out in the Streets Hal walks about looking at everything. He did not bring his War Sword, but he didn't care. If trouble came around he would do what he did best, cause so much confusion that no one has a clue whats going on until after Hal can get away. Hal smiled, he liked doing that, almost as much as what he was about to do next. He slowly walked over to a counter, where there was watches. He was moving almost as if he was sneaking, but without the odd looking walk that came with normal sneaking. His sneak like walk was unnoticed by everyone. He brought his little paw up to the counter and took on of the watches. Without anyone seeing he grabbed the watch and put it in a little bag he carried. He then looked around to see what else there was for him to take. That is when he noticed a fruit stand and decided to take some fruit, maybe two or three items. He carefully walked over to the Fruit stand, making sure not to be seen. He was so good that no one noticed him at all. He then grabbed one fruit, doing only one at a time. He got the first fruit with no problem. After putting it in his bag he went for a second. He had a little more trouble with the second but got it none the less. He put that one in the bag, then went for a third. He got the third one without much effort. He then put it in his bag and walked on seeing what else he could get his little paws on, not knowing that when he stole the watch he started a fight with the Shop owner and a random customer that the shop owner believed stole the watch, but Hal didn't care much. He just enjoyed his time playing in the traffic of people.

Hal opened the apartment door and walked in. Rakish and Vincent were sitting at the table with a piece of paper that Hal couldn't see. Hal closed the door then pulled two fruits out of his bag and threw them at Vincent and Rakish.
"I know it's not much but I ran into a little bite of trouble." Hal smiled at his own comment.
"Bite of Trouble?" Vincent asked.
"I think he meant bit" Rakish told him.
"Nope, I bite some guy. He tried to stop me with a really back pick up line so I bite his nose." Hal explained
Rakish blinked a bit trying to figured out where to start but she just couldn't.
Vincent smiled. "So, what else did you get?"
"Not much, like I said my fun was cut short, but I did get a watch." Hal said as he pulled out a watch.
"Very nice. Probably only sell for a few credits though so you can keep it." Vincent told him.
"Oh really Dad, I can keep it? My very own watch. I'll love him and cuddle him and call him George." Hal said rubbing the watch against his face.
"Really, your cut off from T.V" Rakish said.
"Anyway." Vincent said cutting anything else that would have been said off and putting an end to it, for at least now. "Rakish and I have figured out a way into the factory, only problem is.." Vincent started to explain until Hal cut him off.
"Only problem is the wholes too small for anyone but me and it's in a steam pipe?'
"Yeah." Vincent said.
"Lovely. Fine I'll do this but your information better be right about this place, I still smell from the last one."
"You smelt before we even started." Rakish said with a smile.
"And you have always been cute and witty and you sleep a little loudly, and I can sneak up next to you without you waking up, and you smell so nice." Hal looked at Rakish, her eyes wide. He then looked at Vincent who had a slightly blank look mixed in with a slight jaw drop. "I guess that was a little too far... okay so when do we do this?"
"Tonight!" Vincent said. "So get ready."

About ten minutes went past with Hal crawling through the vent until finally he got to the area he was waiting for. He looked outside the whole. There was no one around, just like Vincent's information said you would be. Hal looked down and prepared himself to jump down but stopped and waited a bit longer making sure not to make a sound. He went to try a second time but again stopped and took in a deep breath. This time, prepared or not he would go and go he did. As silently as he could Hal got out of the vent, landing on the floor, and rolling to prevent much damage to himself. He then sneaked over to a small door. He then unlocked the door and made his way to another area of the building. He did this as silently as he could. Without making a sound Hal got to the area he wanted. He then popped his head out a bit to look around. There was a guard standing next to a door. On the other side was another room. Hal needed to get into that other room without bothering the guard. He looked around. There was nothing. If Hal made a large sound come from the area he was in the guard may go check it out, or he may call in back up. If he checked it out Hal could sneak past him, but if he called in back up, their mission would fail. Hal took the time to think about his next move. He had all the time in the world, or at least four hours.

Hal waited, thinking, until suddenly the doors opened and about three seconds later a man in a lab coat exited the door and started to head toward the guard Hal already passed. Wasting no time Hal ran for the doors, still trying to be stealthy. He does so, almost perfectly. Inside the new room Hal hides and looks around the room. There was only two men in here, both in lab coats. Hal moved as silently as he could to the other side of the room. He almost walked into a glass jar laying on the ground but at the last moment he missed it and stepped over it. However there wasn't just one glass jar and Hal almost stepped on a second one. Hal then stopped and looked around to try and notice all the glass jars. Once he believed he had seen them all and had a perfect route he started moving again. He evaded the Glass jars, but wasn't happy with his skills, but he was close to being done so it didn't matter. He walked over to the area he needed to be. He carefully took a jar and looked at it. He then carefully put the jar back. After all his hard work it wasn't even the right stuff. Hal turned around and headed back hopping that he could get out roughly the same way he got in. He stopped at the Jars and picked them all up and placed them in his bag. He had to be more careful now because the jars could make more sound, but they may come in use one day. He sneaked the rest of the way to the door without problem. He waited for about three minutes until one of the other men in the room looked at the other.
"Could you go see whats taking him so long." He said. It sounded more like an order then a request to Hal and without a word the other guy left the room. Hal followed him moving fast but softly. He then walked to the hallway the guard was at. The two lab coat men and the guard were all looking inside the room the guard was guarding. This would be much easier then last time. Hal went onto the far wall and moved silently. Hal almost trip on his feet but gained his balance quickly and got past the hallway. Now on the other side Hal didn't have to be so sneaky. He went to the door he unlocked and opened it softly. Rakish was standing there.
"Is it clear?" Hal asked.
Rakish nodded and Hal exited the building. They walked for about three minutes until they finally met up with Vincent who was at a computer.
"So?" Vincent asked.
"Not here. They are working on something but it's not what we are looking for." Hal informed him.
"Then lets get out of here." Vincent told them.
