Star Wars: Prey/ Chapter 2: Admiral Two Gun

3 Standard Months Earlier...

 

The middle-aged human sat in his warm red chair as he stared out in the window of his tiny ship into the depths of space. The sounds of silence soothing him as he pondered about life. Zzzzzing! Zzzzzing! The sudden noise made the human jump. He was relieved after he realized someone was just calling him on his holoprojector.

“Ah! Hello Admiral Two-Gun! I've been waiting for you!”  A blonde haired man on the holoprojector started in his Baxfarian accent. “Good evening senator Barda” Admiral Two-Gun, the middle-aged human greeted as he bowed.

“I know you became an Admiral but you’re still a scientist, right? So I was wondering, how experienced are you in…..how do I say this…..creating hybrid creatures used for war?” Barda started.

He thought for a moment as he glanced over at his big collection of cell samples from creatures all across the galaxy.

“The Separatist Council told me to ask you this because, after the recent malfunction of droids at the Battle of Telos, the C.I.S were in need of something more” Barda added.

“Yes, it was my first time being an Admiral so it was very difficult” Admiral Two-Gun sighed.

“So, what specific creatures do you want, senator?”  Admiral Two-Gun also said.

“Something with...a balance of strength and speed” the senator replied.

He paused and thought again. “Take your time to think about it Admiral, in the meantime I have a meeting to get to….Goodbye”  senator Barda stated after a moment of silence. The holoprojector then shut off.

Strength and Speed, Strength and Speed. He kept repeating those words in his head over and over again. He thought back to the holoprojections Nute Gunray gave him of the battles that occurred during the Clone War over the past few years.

That's it! The scientist thought…..A Narglatch and a Nexu….strength and speed! He hurried over to the left side of his ship where all his science materials were. There were many rows of cell samples that were in his collection. On the fifth row, there was a glass slide labeled “Narglatch cells”. He took the glass slide and put it on his desk right under where all the glass slides were.

He searched again and this time looked for the Nexu cells but found it right away. After, he placed the glass slide with the Nexu cells in it on the desk.

The scientist walked away from his desk and went to the front of his ship where all the controls were. The ship was about to go into hyperspace. Although he had plenty of gadgets and devices for science on his ship, those would not even be enough to do his experiment. He had to go to his secret lab on the frigid planet in the Outer Rim known as Orto Plutonia.
