Think? The woman had to think about his offer? Every second they wasted was another second that something worse might happen. There had already been an explosion or earthquake or whatever that was, and Crux didn’t want to be around to find out if it had just been a coincidence or if someone was...

Crux knew as soon as he’d ducked behind the desk that this had been a bad choice. The room was nothing more than a small office with only one way in or out, and said entrance was now being covered by this woman who was all too eager to shoot his balls off. Since she was outside, Crux decided...

When she repeated the word, Crux almost thought that this woman was going to say something useful for once. He was sorely disappointed when she launched into a description of the animal instead as if he didn’t know what those were. He caught that weasel jab at the end, but he wasn’t going to let...

Crux growled in his throat. Today was roadblock after roadblock, and yet again he was stuck— she was right about it being a stalemate. What was different about this time compared to when he was with Amer, however, was where she was aiming. This was somehow worse. However, given that the Badger...

Despite everything Crux was thinking about this woman, he had to admit that she was quick on her feet. She had her blasters up as soon as he did— and he couldn’t help noticing that they were not pointed at his face or chest like he’d thought. Both of hers were angled a little lower than he...

The same thought that had entered his mind when he met Amer entered his mind yet again. Who did this woman think she was? She didn’t look like she belonged in here. Suspicious from the beginning, Crux was already on his guard. As far as he was concerned she was just another common street junkie...

“You didn’t shake it, did you?” Crux didn’t respond. “Shaking tends to make cases like those go boom…boom.” Crux looked down at his box. After waiting a few seconds, it didn’t go boom boom, and once again he internally cursed the Badger for messing around with his head. Letting out a sigh, he...

“Took you a bit of a minute, didn’t it?” Kriff you. If the Badger hadn’t promised to pay him, Crux might have hung up just then. Instead, he huffed as he listened to his next instructions about some kind of maintenance elevator. He just hoped that this one wasn’t broken too. As for bathrooms...

“Yes?” This Badger could go kriff himself. However, apparently Crux didn’t have any other options but to go through the droids somehow, so that was the route he took. He opened the door. Nothing happened at first. All the droids were busy working on who knows what, and none of them turned to...

The pen but not the cup. Looking at the two objects in his hands, Crux put down the cup and put the pen in his pocket. Door on the left. He paused before he moved. There were two doors. How would the Badger know which door it was if he wasn’t watching him? He moved to his right instead, only to...

[“Hey, Wolf!”] Wha— Crux was about to turn around to see who had called him before that voice in his head told him not to. It took him a moment to process what it said next. The Badger? After all the time and effort he’d spent searching for him, now it was revealed that he could have just...

Ki’dut, Di’kut, Crux was almost forgetting what the hippo’s name was. His own intelligence was slipping out of his brain just from listening to him talk. So after he was done talking about growing a third nut, the bounty hunter decided to simply eye the “Hit Man” factory and pretend like he...

Crux grinned from beneath his helmet as the two I.D.I.O.T. officers assumed that Jon was the woman instead of Amer. He wouldn’t hesitate to rub it in his face the next time he saw him if the Duros decided to dip again in the middle of a firefight. When they asked for ID, Crux was inclined to...

Crux looked back at Jon as the Duros finally got off his phone and focused on the situation at hand. Sometimes he felt like he was the only one who took his job seriously. “Uh huh.” And then, was that a compliment from Amer? Given that he had been looking at Jon, Crux didn’t know who it was...

As Amer turned her full attention on him, insulting him again and tapping her finger on her pistol, Crux was more than tempted to pull his own blaster out. He’d about had it with her attitude, and now that she was provoking him back he was eager to take her up on the offer. Unfortunately, as...

“Then you’re gonna regret it.” Crux turned toward Amer, blinking. Then he forgot he was wearing his helmet. Staring it was before he looked away when Jon spoke. His partner was right. It would, in fact, be bad for business if they somehow all ended up killed because of this woman. The hint of...

Crux glared at Amer as she spoke into her phone. Chihuahua? She clearly had no idea who she was dealing with. If there was a bounty on her, he would gladly show her that this wolf could bite. The disrespect he received from his own partner was shocking too. Crux had done him a favor by calling...

Crux could only stare incredulously as the second hippo attempted to drink whatever it was from that pink canteen of his by pouring it over his helmet. He could only hope that one day, one of his bounties would be to catch one of these di’kuts. They would be easy credits, and he’d probably be...

Amer Dragata spoke again, and Crux’s eyes narrowed. She claimed she wasn’t the Badger, but where was the proof of that? On the other hand, there wasn’t much proof that she was, but the bounty hunter’s patience was running thin. Her sass wasn’t helping to make him feel much better, either...

Crux frowned. This woman had attitude. Called him sunshine as if he weren’t Wolf here and now. Even as chaos ensued between the Ranger, the hippo, and the security guards, the bounty hunter kept his eyes on the woman. She was the only real threat here. Besides Deputy Wolf, of course. She...
