Sometimes it was just the boredom that got to Castor.
He was patrolling the lower levels of Corellia's capital city, beside one of the many, many, loading docks and he was bored. The number of times he had patrolled this same route could not be counted without measuring into the millions he was sure. It felt like he knew every step he needed to take on this damned route and that annoyed him.
Annoyingly enough, this route was actually a high priority area and they expected that rebels and other seditious parties would have some kind of a hold over the desperate people here. It was rather simple as far as he was concerned - the people here needed some kind of hope and they looked outside of the Empire for that hope.
The fact that half of the 'rebels' he found were nothing more than con artists was something that told him that they were likely not going to end up in a better place.
He was walking along down the street when a sweet old Rodian lady who owned one of the fast food places waved him over. Official he wasn't supposed to spend much time around non-humans but... well she was a sweet old lady and she gave him half price on noodles after he had caught a shoplifter. Paying her the full price anyway, as he always did, Castor just smirked as he wandered off with the noodles in one hand.
And then her fast food stall exploded in flames.
Blinking numbly, Castor didn't react for a moment before touching his com quickly,
"HQ respond - we have an incendiary explosion on grub street! Requesting bomb squad and fire marshals!"
There was a pause.
"Negative Blade Three - return to your patrol."
He stood there, paralysed by indecision for a moment.
