"..i think this is it, kkoda.."
Whispered that guy that always liked to joke about everything.
A glance at the suns', that guy hit his best smirk before thinking of his whole life.
A name to the mind; Kkoda, that guy thought of his dog when he was about to die.
That was the price he had to pay for deceiving a lot of people.
A swindler to some, but a liar to most; he went by many name.
Reputation closest to that of a traitor, he bore the title of 'Solo'.
Friendless and unfamily-like, he never disclosed information on himself to his surrounding.
Old of a quarter of a hundred old, he was that young talented adrenaline-rush boy that didn't matter for his own care.
Until, he met greater than him.
"The Universe; in itself is really small. Do not think that you are free when freedom is a concept that no one shall understand. Peace is just a façade that wealth pays to seduce. But when greed takes over, reality shows the true cruelty of things... Anyway, I think you get the gist. You could've just accepted your measly artifacts as paychecks.. Instead, you stole my Lightsaber. Why? Are you that dumb that you don't care for your life?"
Holding that guy, mid-air, Val was stunned by the boldness of that guy.
She couldn't understand him, at all.
"..when you kill people, don't you ask for more blood, Lady Sith? I'm the same! when i see money, i can't get enough of it.."
Replied that guy, amused by the situation.
Unconcious of the situation, it tingled Val's mind that maybe, that guy was buying time..?
*Thock*
Suddenly, Val found herself unable to breathe when she was in complete control of the moment.
Was that guy using the force?--No, it didn't seem so.
But that feeling persisted--Val was losing breathe.
There wasn't any pain, but it felt like a rock was weighing on her lungs.
"..haha....hahahahah... heh. you see this. i don't steal for nothing. i am 'solo', right? but i do keep my backup. you came on the wrong planet to ascertain your dominance, lady sith.. this is my land and you are not in your league here."
The smirk withered as that guy showed his darker side while enunciating that he was accompanied.
Val, still couldn't breathe, but she wasn't panicking.
Instead, she stopped breathing as she tried to remove the arrow that pierced her back flesh.
Ignoring that guy, she looked to the back and saw that little furry thing hiding behind some dirt bags.
"..Tch! Kids these days sure know how to surprise me. I wonder how she reached that far behind me without me noticing. Can she use the force?--I didn't know Wookie could demontraste such skills. Each time I'm remembered that I'm younger than I look.."
Standing back up when she took a knee, Val wasn't angered anymore but amused too.
That little show that guy and the Wookie showed was quite entertaining to her taste.
Considering something that she could do that guy, Val stated this:
"You weren't dumb with your life, huh..? I sort of understand your existence but I'm still puzzled. I won't kill you, Solo. Instead, why don't we.. why don't we be..."

3rd Volume won't be as gore as I will try to reach the darkest source of the characters to develop the minds and mindset of each of them. I feel that they are unsuccessful artists that are yet to be recognised and these episodes will help them differentiate their conscience from the physical bodies. I'm real for this one :-

I'm not saying that the volumes to come will be sentimental but just enough for coloring.
