Menace from the Dark Side/A Dark Side Affair

Shavan Solo was walking quietly along the main street of High Eisley.

The road was full of passers and various kind of vehicles; Shavan loved Tatooine Street.

"Ehi, would you like to buy any devaronian maggot?".

The merchant who has just talked was a tall Devaronian dressed in a brown cloak. "No, you have to find a true job and to leave in peace the passers" and saying this Shavan gestured with his hand.

"I have to find a true job and to leave in peace the passers" the Devaronian repeated. Just after he turned back and he began to put his devaronian maggots in a big box.

Shavan smiled and continued to walk along the street, maintaining his brisk pace and reaching fastly his destination: the Jukav Cantina.

The Human came to the entrance and pushed the door: he found himself in a tipical cantina, with scoundrels of every kind talking and trinking seated at tables, bands singing and women dancing. Shavan soon reached the bar and leaned on the shelf. A fat Twi’lek moved to him while rubbing with a rag a mug. "You know what to order?"

"Yeah, just an agamarian strikebeer".

The Twi’lek giggled. "Ah, you want to get drunk, huh?"

Shavan giggled back. "Yeah, probably".

The barman prepared immediately the strikebeer; Shavan instead looked around himself. There were about twenty persons in the cantina, of which nineteen with bad intentions. What? And who is the good one? Shavan wondered.

"Here it is".

Shavan turned back to the bar and grabbed the mug of strikebeer. "Thanks" Shavan replied and suddenly stood up and went to sit at the table of the good one.

He was covered by a huge cloak and a hood; when Shavan sat down, he did not even rose his head. Waiting a reaction by the man, Shavan took a sip and tried to fathom his thoughts.

"Don’t even try" the man said suddenly.

Shavan smiled. "Excuse me, I’m sorry. I thought that you had not noticed me".

"Oh, I did it. Who are you, Jedi?"

"I’m not a Jedi” Shavan replied embarrassed.

"So you are a Sith".

"No, neither it".

"But you can use the Force".

Shavan was getting nervous. "So what?"

"Nothing, they were just considerations".

The man still had the hood down. "And you? Who are you?"

"Oh, I’m just a stupid".

"A stupid? Why?"

"I’m losing time. I’ve to go" and saying that the man stood up and turned to go.

Shavan lifted the man’s hood using the Force and froze. "You… you are a…"

"You are talking so much" the man ended the sentence and wielded a lightsaber. A red lightsaber. A secon later the man was hit by a sonic blaster and collapsed.
