Not many friendly faces on Nar Shadda, Ori thought. He had only been on the planet for a few hours and that was already evident to him. The transport ship he'd taken from Baraan-Fa had dumped him here because according to them, this was as far as his credits would take him. It was raining and Ori's clothes were soaked through. Thankfully he found what looked like to be the entrance to a bar, although there was a bouncer standing in the entrance.
"Identification card," the bouncer demanded as he saw Ori approaching.
"Haven't got one," Ori replied, carrying on before the bounce could reply, "Look, I just want to get out of the rain for an hour. I won't cause any trouble." The bounce nodded his head and waved Ori inside.
"I hear you causing any trouble, I'll drag you out by your hair," Ori heard the bounce say as he descended down a small staircase into the bar. Taking a seat at the counter, he got the attention of the bartender and handed over a handful of credits, "Water please, and some food, I'll take anything you got, I'm starving."
"Sure thing," the bartender said. He returned several minutes later with a glass of water and a plate, on top of which was what looked like mouldy bread. Ori eat it anyway. After he finished, Ori went to thank the bartender, but he had already walked away, his attention taken by other customers. At the same time, two burly, rough-looking men sat down either side of Ori, sandwiching him in his chair.
"What are you doing here?" The man to Ori's right asked sternly.
"Don't look like you belong here kid," The one to the left added, with an unnerving chuckle afterwards.
"Just passing through," Ori said, "I'm on my way to find the Jedi Order." The two men fell silent, exchanging a glance.
The man on the right spoke up, "Jedi Order? We don't like those types around here, do we Kaz?" He said, addressing the man on Ori's left. "They're nosy, and they bring trouble."
"No, Riga, we don't," Kaz answered, "I think we should teach this kid a thing or two, see if he's got what it takes to be a Jedi." Kaz and Riga stood up at the same time.
"Look guys," Ori said, "I really don't want any trou-" He barely had time to finish before Kaz and Riga yanked him from his barstool and pushed him down onto the floor. They both laughed.
"What ya gonna do now, Jedi boy?" Riga said mockingly.
"Identification card," the bouncer demanded as he saw Ori approaching.
"Haven't got one," Ori replied, carrying on before the bounce could reply, "Look, I just want to get out of the rain for an hour. I won't cause any trouble." The bounce nodded his head and waved Ori inside.
