Cleo and Beta woke up to the alarms of the ship going off. Last night, before dozing off to sleep, they asked Fox to set the ship to alert them if anyone gets near it. You can never be too safe, especially on a known criminal world.
Checking the time before sleepily sauntering out of the room, Cleo found that it was actually later than she expected. Being a sith lord of the Sith Empire, she was almost always punctual, waking up at 6 in the morning every day, but today it was nearly 8.
"Hmm, must be the mental stress." Cleo pondered for a second.
Cleo reached the bridge and checked the camera feed from outside the ship. She praised her intelligence for thinking to add the cameras to see around the ship when she first got it. Now all she had to do was check the cameras to see who was disturbing her beauty sleep.
What she saw on the camera were 20 some-odd thugs, all looking extremely angry, and she just chalked it up to them being the friends of the thugs from the day before. There was one fat, greasy looking human towards the back of the group, who she assumed to be the leader. She never understood thugs like this, how could a fat guy be the leader? They were 9/10 times useless in combat and would get killed easily, yet he came with the group. Cleo figured he probably was underestimating them.
At the same time, the door to Beta's room slid open, revealing a sleepy looking twi'lek, who if she had hair would most likely have bed hair right now. Clothed in a black nightgown, she walked towards the center of the bridge, standing next to Cleo.
Beta wiped her eyes, looking at the camera feed over the holoprojector.
*Yawn* "Master, is it even necessary to bother with these people? All they are good for is an alarm to wake us up in the mornings." She stretched while making her complaints.
Beta was never a morning person, something that Cleo had tried to change about her, but she had stayed the same for two years, and more recently, Cleo had just decided to give up and let her have the bad habit. Growing teenagers need sleep anyways, what's the harm?
Cleo sighed. "Just forget about them, I'll handle this. Just get ready for the day, and come out once your ready.
She made her way to the ramp of the ship, which depressurized, and when she walked down, she had every single one of the blasters aimed at her face.
"What?" She spat out, clearly as annoyed as her apprentice.
The fat man smiled lecherously, you could see the greasy beads of sweat rolling down his protruding forehead. "Hehehe, look what we have here, quite the beauty, you will make a nice profit for me, but not after I have my fun with you." He scanned her body with his disgusting beady eyes, and obviously started pitching a tent in his pants. Instead of her sith robes from yesterday, which covered her entire body, Cleo was currently wearing a skimpy black top that wrapped around her neck, showing massive amounts of cleavage, as well as leaving her flat and toned stomach open for all the see. She matched it with a black miniskirt, and black thigh highs. Considering her bombshell of a body, she was definitely a sight to see.
"Are you an idiot?" Cleo looked at the man while tilting her head to the side. Truly the man was stupid, what person would just go to a random ship and do this, they could easily be messing with someone they can't.
"Bitch what'dya say? I'm the leader of the Blue Wolf Gang here on Nar Shaddaa, if you don't want trouble, hand yourself over and maybe we will go easy on you and your companion, if not..." he smiled pervertedly, "I may end up tossing you to the rest of the gang to have their fun with you. You should have let our men yesterday catch you, and it would have been easier, but now you have no chance at escaping, just give up and become my bitch."
The reason the man was talking so confidently was the fact that he saw no weapons of Cleo's body, but unfortunately for him, her lightsabers were strapped onto her belt just above her butt, just out of view for the thugs.
Cleo sighed, why did this man have to be such a nuisance. Sure, he would have pissed her off if she was back in her time, but knowing that these 20 or so men are essentially flies to her really destroys her motivation to kill them, it was a waste of energy!
Right when she was just going to ignore them, she had a lightbulb go off above her head. Her lovely apprentice! This is just what she needs to wake up!
Turning towards the ship, she amplified her voice forward with the force, "BETA! Come here!"
The gang leader's face turned bright red due to anger from being ignored, "Boys! Get her! This is what she gets for messing with the Blue Wolves!"
All the men started moving forward, grinning lecherously, thinking about holding this beautiful body in front of them.
At that second, the characteristic tapping of boots came from inside the ship, and a still tired looking, yet normally clothed twi'lek came from inside the ship, "Master, why did you call me for these bantha fodder?"
Being insulted by a teenager threw these men overboard, and they all started rushing the women with anger apparent on their faces.
"Sigh, look what you did. Anyways this is your warm up for today, I'll watch."
Beta's expression dropped, why did she have to clean up the trash? But alas, it was an order from her master and she couldn't reject. Igniting her blood red blade, she rushed the closest thug before he could even react. Bisecting the first man, she fluidly moved to the next, slicing him diagonally, and by that time every thug in the port reacted. Most people of the galaxy know what it means for someone to own a 'laser sword'. In simple terms, if they are your enemy, run for your lives!
The gang blanched, and more than half of the men turned and bolted for the door, only for it to close and lock on their face, curtesy of their leader, who at the first sign of the lightsaber was already running, his fat jiggling. If anyone saw him, they would wonder how such a large man was running so fast. If your squinted hard enough, you could barely imagine him rolling instead of running, lots of passerby who saw him got the laugh of their day, too bad the leader of the Blue Wolf Gang just lost all public reputation.
With no escape, the remaining men turned around and started firing their blasters, to which Beta simply sent it back to where they came from.
While Beta was doing her 'morning warm up', a man from the group even tried to take Cleo as a hostage! His end? Laying on the ground, charred and spasming from force lightning. After that, the rest stayed away from her, trying their luck at killing the combat loving lethan twi'lek, who at the moment was grinning while slaughtering their companions. It wasn't that she loved killing, but the fact that even if just a little, she was fighting after staying inside the ship for so long, that small battle yesterday did nothing to sate herself.

High up in the atmosphere of Nar Shaddaa, a jedi starfighter was maneuvering towards an open port. Inside was Master Shaak Ti, who is coming to Nar Shaddaa to start her search for the disturbance in the force.
Getting lower and lower, she spotted something. Red lasers from a blaster flashing inside a port, but what caught her eye was the red blur moving between the men, as she got closer, she could tell it was a person, cutting down the rest of the people inside the port. She knew she found it, the disturbance, but it wasn't what she was hoping for. She had to report right away.
Her holoprojector turned blue, and a connection appeared. She saw the figures of Master Yoda and Master Windu, standing next to each other.
Windu was the first to speak up, "Master Ti? Is something wrong? You should have just arrived, yet you already called for us."
"Masters, I have already found the disturbance, from this distance it seems that it is a user of the dark side of the force, I still need to get closer, but they are clearly wielding a red blade."
Both Masters of the other side of the call became distressed.
"Get closer, you must, but be careful you must be." Yoda replied.
"Yes, I will report back later with more details."
The jedi on the other side nodded, and then the connection was cut. Shaak Ti sped up her ship, rushing to the nearest open port to the one she saw combat in.
As soon as she landed, she jumped out of her ship, quickly tossed the owner of the port some credits, and dashed to the exit, weaving her way through the maze called the streets of Nar Shaddaa.
-----
The battle ended quite uneventfully, both women now in a sour mood, both from having to wake up earlier, as well as having boring opponents.
"Master let's just go, this place has nothing left for us."
"I agree apprentice. Might as well start our journey. Let us go."
Both returned inside the ship, closing the ramp, and setting course for Mandalore. The ship powered on, thrusters warming up, before it started hovering out of the port, and taking to the air above the Smuggler's Moon.
They didn't even realize that down below, inside the port they just left, was a panting Shaak Ti, who was staring at their interceptor, which was fading away into the distance. She watched the direction they jumped to hyperspace, before opening her holocommunicator and calling the council again.
It seems like things are finally going to become more interesting for the sith duo.
