The streets on Nar Shaddaa were less then forgiving, but she had learned to adapt, she had no other choice. Her entire existence thus far had been one trial after another, but she had managed to survive and would keep on surviving in the only way that she knew how – stealing and cheating. It wasn’t an honest living and the credits were never a guarantee, but it was all she had ever known, though she often dreamed that someone might come along and save her; it was a fool’s dream.
The thought forced a sigh to slip her lips as she aimlessly drew her finger around the rim of her drink. Her eyes scanned the crowded bar, scouting her target from the farthest side. Her other hand slipped beneath the counter, resting on her blaster to assure herself that it was still there. This was by far one of the stupidest things she had ventured to do.
Lyra didn’t have much experience tracking bounties, but the promised credits were too enticing to pass up. It had been days since her last full meal and she felt ravenous; there was no way in hell she was going to let nerves talk her into backing down. She tapped her foot beneath the booth, taking deep breaths to combat her racing heart.

This particular target was a dead man walking. The only foreseeable problem? She had her own bounties to run from; simultaneously the predator and the prey. It left a pit in her stomach.
