The Glaxay, wasn't getting any more stable, then it had been, in the years after the Empires defeat. When the Sith Lord: Palpatine, had been slain, the only, and last Sith Lord was thought destroyed, no one ever knew, nor heard about any other. But the Dark Side, would never subdue, as long as there was subjects, prepared to embrace it. And there was always willing subjects to be found. The Empire was indeed defeated, and the Galaxy free of it's tyranny. However, not free of darkness. The Dark Side was always searching for new candidates. The next great Sith Lord. The Dark side, always corrupt. Leaves a mind hazed, and lost. Leaves a man without compassion. Only Tenacity, and fury remains. Many would crave these powers, even among the Jedi ranks. And often the more powerful Jedi's, has a greater chance of being corrupted. They get so close to their limits, if not reaching it, but then starts craving more. And as soon as that craving comes, there's no turning back. Power, corrupts.

After his last mission, Ar'tek had gone missing, leaving no mesage behind for his friends and family. There had been no trace of him after this, and no one suspected him to simply leave like this. He'd loved his Sister, and remnants of his family. So everyone suspected him dead, even though no one ever found him, on his last known position.
However, seven years after his disapearance, there was one person, who knew where he could be found. A snarling little merchant, hidden away in the darker allies of Dantooine's slums. The Merchant was a nosy little Twi'lek, not owning the height of his fellow race. A Radio played loud music from it's speakers, as the merchant waddled about his shop, moving around paper and money. The merchant sell a long list of things, from rare antiques, to scrap metal, to slave dossiers. There was no slaves in his shop, they where all held elsewhere, and the dossiers was only presented to possible buyers. The Merchant, was as well an arms dealer, and information broker. But those two sides, was well hidden, no one else then the ones who already knew his worth, knew this. He was a valuable source of information, and weapons. He was as well, the last man, who'd be able to tell anything about Ar'tek.

I couldn't just sit around and wait anymore. It had been years and the investigation went cold. They had essentially stop searching; waiting literally for leads to come to them rather than seeking leads. It was as if they expected him to just show up at their doorstep. But he was gone, and no one knew anything about what had happened to him. Secretly, I knew the subliminal message being shared among the council. That he was probably buried 10 feet in the ground in some forgotten sea of trees or at the bottom of the ocean. They stopped because they thought he was dead. But I didn't. I refused to believe it, and so I left. Go up and left one night. Didn't even tell a soul. I was just a few missions away from becoming a Jedi Master myself – but I couldn't make that lifetime decision to dedicate my soul to the Jedi, especially not after my dear brother's disappearance was swept under a rug. I decided to take matter into my own hands, and I was willing to get them pretty dirty to finally find him.

A series of leads lead me to a small village where flea markets and black market trades were popular and known. I knew I was getting hot. I had heard rumors of the 'Man that Knows it All'. I just didn't know who this man was that everyone was referring to. “Have you seen this man? He would be older now...” I raised a small picture of him to a local jewelry saleswoman. She shook her head nervously. But just as I was about to leave, she stopped me and slowly pointed to a man down the street. She didn't seem to be able to speak. She nodded her head and gestured at the man. “He would know?” Grimacing, she continuously pointed, urging me to go over there.

I did as she motioned. Approaching the man, I interrupted him in the process of scrambling around. Trying to avoid eye contact, he nervously moved away. I held the picture up to him and his eyes widened – he was horrified. “No! No... don't know who that is! Sorry!”

But I had yet to say anything. “Really? You sure?” He continued to shake his head, insisting he wasn't involved. A smirked before I grabbed him. Snatching him by his collar, I slammed the side of his face onto a table. Holding a plasma gun under his chin, I slapped the image of my brother next to his nose. “I think you want to take another look...” His lip quivered slightly before he nodded and held the image closer to his face; though still being held to the table. “Speak. Where is he!?” He shook his head again, still silent, refusing to speak. “WHERE IS HE?” Digging my nails into his collar, I rolled the man onto his back. I now stood over him as his back folded to the edge of the table. Face to face, I slowly let go. “Why...?” I asked him, my voice suddenly calm. “What do you want from me in exchance? I know how it works...” I slowly started to back up. “There needs to be something in it for you.” My finger ran seductively down his torso. “What about those slaves you sell? Hm?” He looked intimidated but confused. Moving my lips closer to his, “Why don't I be you slave.” My hot breath beat against his course lips. I was just centimetres from kissing the ugly beast before me. I was willing to go through great extremes.
 
He'd grunted as she entered his shop. Smirking at the beauty in front of him, however, he wasn't blind. He'd seen her weapons and her intimidating aura. Clearly she wasn't there, looking for a job. And as soon as that wretched image was slapped in his face, he winched in fear, cowering before her, doing his best to swipe her off his doorstep. Not him. Not Phantom. He couldn't sell information about him. As ugly as it might be, he wasn't about to risk that knob, atop his neck, for her sweet ass. But she wasn't about to give up. It was clear she knew Phantom, she resembled him in many way's. Sweet and unaggressive at first. It had taken Phantom a week to turn wicked. Now, Phantom no longer payed for information. Bartak was at his mercy, not the other way around.
As he was pushed against the table, threatened with his life, he didn't flinch once. He wouldn't bulge for that, he knew Phantom would do worse then her. He'd probably sever ever part of him, that wouldn't kill him, and in the end, finally kill him. No. A blast to the head, was fast and painless.

Then as he was turned around, he placed both palms on the table, tightening them around it, prepared to perish. Yet instead, her tune changed. He narrowed his eyes, growling silently, before grunting a single time. Her words where as needles. How'd she know? Damn those Force-wielders... Phantom had done the same. Known everything about him, by just looking at him. Her preposal made him sneer lightly, and narrow his eyes, attempting to grab her wrist, as she seductively stroked his body. He tried to pull at her, to keep her that close to his lips. "No slave.. Will ever be worth a life... Not even one, as prestigious as you.." he sneered, his upper lip shivering slightly in anger. She was threatening his life, and now offering her own. And all, to force something from him, that'd cost him his life in the end, anyway? She'd damn well have to pay well. He reached up a hand, stroking his fingers up her side, as his head tilted lightly. "Why do you seek this man? Will you be the one to stop him? Will you be the one to end him? Many would love to take that place.. Be the one to pull the trigger, that sends his life away." He growled, before reaching up, grabbing at one of the tentacles upon her head, attempting to slam her against the table. "I know him as Phantom.. And I do indeed know where he might be. But no one can know this for sure. But I can get pretty close.. But risking my life, to tell you this, is not worth, one, mere, night.. Not even when it's with a sweet ass, such as yours.. Offer me your life. Your life, as my slave, until I decide to remove your collar. The collar will tell me where you are, and will allow me to drain your strength. Punish you, if you attempt to run away.." He sneered, still returning the favor, keeping her pressed against the table, with a grip at the tentacle, if she didn't stop him. "How much.. Do you wish to find him?" He asked with a viscous grin, clearly realizing she was desperate to find him.
