WELCOME to Lothal sir Ezra Bridger said to the tall male Chagrian who had just arrived at the spaceport with four female blue-skinned Twi'leks Are you here for the big fight Fight What fight said the Chagrian The four Twi'leks came to a stop behind him The Chagrian wore an expensive coat and on the coat's collar was an Imperial allegiance pin On his left hand he wore a jeweled ring and a silver wrist-comm He turned his long-horned head to face the spaceport concourse's security station where two armored stormtroopers stood holding matching blaster rifles Seeing that the stormtroopers were watching other travelers and not looking in the direction of his group the Chagrian bent close to Ezra and said Keep your voice down boy Is it true that a Houk will be fighting a Feeorin Yes sir A genuine gladiator match I need five seats How much Five hundred credits sir Five hundred Suspicious the Chagrian looked
Ezra up and down Ezra wore a backpack and a short-sleeved vest over ratty coveralls and had a scavenged piece of armor over the shin of his right leg He also had a retractable energy slingshot mounted to the gauntlet that was wrapped around his left wrist but the Chagrian didn't notice the weapon The Chagrian said Are you authorized to sell tickets Indeed I am sir Ezra said And I can offer you very good seats He reached into his backpack and removed a small datapad He activated the datapad's image-caster image-caster and a three-dimensional hologram appeared in the air The hologram showed a wide ring of seats that encircled a large cage You'd be sitting there Ezra pointed to five seats that were only a few rows away from the cage But for just another hundred credits you and your lovely companions could have your own private box He smiled at the Twi'leks and winked at the tallest one All four Twi'leks giggled causing their head tails to jiggle against their backs Very well the Chagrian said He reached for a pouch on his belt and removed six credit chips Taking the credit chips Ezra said Your pin looks dull 10
I beg your pardon Your Imperial pin It doesn't look like you polished it recently The local authorities wouldn't approve Shifting the datapad so that he held it with one hand he used his free hand to pull a clean rag from his vest pocket Here use this The Chagrian took the rag and began rubbing at the pin Moving closer to the Chagrian Ezra patted his sleeve and said Oh I forgot to mention For an additional hundred credits your box could have an all-you-can-eat all-you-can-eat buffet The Chagrian handed the rag back to Ezra Is the food good Yes sir the best on the planet He reached up to move the rag over the Chagrian's pin and said Pardon me sir you missed a spot The Chagrian gave Ezra another credit chip Ezra tapped at the datapad and a small card slid out of its side Handing the card to the Chagrian Ezra said This is your group's ticket Present it to the admissions office at Monad Outpost and you'll be escorted to your private private box where your buffet will be waiting How do I get to Monad Outpost You'll need to take a shuttle sir The Chagrian rolled his eyes And how much will 11
