Chapter 2
A circle was shaped around the main door, the lased blade of a light saber cutting through the thick metal quite easily. A main with long silver hair, wearing black entered the hutt's property and Reno instantly recognized him. "Sephiroth," he was Chancellor Rufus' bodyguard. "Why are you here?"
"To eliminate the hutts, I was not supposed to be expected," the light saber Sephiroth wielded was far longer than a regular one, extending three times as far. "You are in my mission territory."
"Got it, time to leave," paying no attention to the hutts, Reno walked away. He and Sephiroth were on the same side, they both worked for Chancellor Rufus, they were both helping build another empire, and there was no reason to get in the way. Though Reno did take some riches on the way out, it's not the hutts would be needed the treasures in their graves.
Reno loaded the loot into his hover car and headed back in the general direction of the space port, but changed course when he saw a jawa transport in the distance. He didn't get the much needed entertainment from the hutts, but maybe he would find some interesting gadget with the jawas.
Upon noticing the approaching hover car, the jawa transport stopped at the possibility of a customer, one of the jawas ushered some droids out and lined them up in from of Reno, but what really caught Reno's attention, was that the jawa's eyes did not glow. He pretended to examine a robot and with a quick movement pulled the jawa's hood down to find that he was not a jawa at all. "Why is a human boy pretending to be a jawa?"
"Stop it! Let go!" The boy tried to put the hood back on, but Reno wouldn't let it go.
Reno looked at the boy, kneeling down to eye level, "I'm curious, why are you with the jawas?"
The boy did not reply, and instead attacked by sticking two fingers in Reno's nose. Reno was taken by surprised and stumbled back and fell while the boy rushed inside.
"Come back here you little brat!" Reno yelled, holding his pained nose.
A real jawa explained in a squeaky voice, "we took care of that boy so he is in debt to us until he pays for his expenses, that is why he works for us."
"The brat has guts I'll give him that," Reno retrieved a small trunk from his hover car and opened it revealing the hutt treasures inside. "How about this for the boy."
The jawas were very exited with the trade and it showed. "Yes! Yes!" The leader signaled for another to get the boy and bring him back out side.
"What's going on?" The boy asked, he didn't know about the deal the jawas were so exited about.
"I paid your debt kid, so your debt is with me now," Reno explained. "The first thing you have to do is stop pretending to be a jawa."
The boy removed his hood, "are you planning to get me a job to repay?"
"Actually, I'm going to pass on your debt to someone else. Don't worry about it kid, that person is very kind and will forgive your debt and free you," Reno got into the hover car and waited for the boy to get in as well, then left the jawas to their celebration of having obtained rare hutt riches.
"Why not just free me yourself?" The boy asked.
"I need information," that was all that Reno said, and it was clear he would not elaborate. Instead he changed the subject, "what's your name kid?"
"Denzel," the boy replied, "and you are?"
"Reno of the Turks," to admit he was a Turk on such a remote planet had little meaning. He could announce it at the top of his longs in the public plaza and no one would care. It would be a different story in he was in Coruscant he couldn't even whisper about being a Turk then. The existence of the Turks, those who infiltrated, spied on and manipulated the senate, would always be denied, even if everyone knew it was true.
"Will there be another empire? I don't like the idea but the republic has been ignoring Tatooine so it can't get worse, maybe it'll get better. I heard someone from the Sith is getting rid of the hutts, if they made a new trade federation it wouldn't have been good anyway," Denzel was well informed.
After the fall of the empire, Tatooine continued being an autonomous planet, though due to it's desert nature, it was not rich in resources and could not compete with the alliance of the new republic. The hutts began to form a new trade federation and the chancellor eliminated them. The rest of the people of Tatooine opposed to resistance since they knew the hutts would abuse any power they might obtained. "I see," Reno wondered what more he wasn't quite aware of despite being required to attend the senate. "Got any more information like that?"
"Just rumors, I heard that someone might turn up that will change things in the senate, break a tie or something like that," Denzel revealed, though he didn't have all the details.
"I heard about it and that's why I'm here," Reno voiced.
"All of this isn't free you know, I expect you to lower my debt," Denzel did have a debt to repay after all, and he didn't want to drag it for the rest of his life.
"Don't worry kid, you'll be free to go in no time," Reno assured him.
The senate was at a tie, which left the choices up to the chancellor, the tie breaker. But if some long lost leader, representing a big enough star system in the republic territory asked to join the senate, the request could no be denied. If that person sided against the chancellor it could be troublesome. Reno had to find out if such a person existed and gain a new ally or eliminate a new enemy.
Reno was certain the bartender of the Seventh Heaven knew, but she wouldn't tell. Denzel was the perfect mode of persuasion, Reno had seen a little girl living at the Seventh Heaven before, and he believed Tifa, the bartender, had a liking towards children. If Reno offered to trade a boy who would otherwise be a slave for information, Tifa would not waste the chance to accept the trade and gain the boy's debt so she may free him.
