Falco woke up bleakly, tired and slightly dazed. Where am I... Falco sprung up in sudden realization. "Vader!!" Falco quickly reached for his lightsabers, where he found his utility belt, where all his weapons hung, was gone. He looked around to see he was completely enclosed in a prisoner cell. There were two beds, a small steel table and two run-down chairs. I've seen worse.
Falco bitterly tried to recall his evil encounter with Vader. He recalled hate, anger, and for the first time in his life, fear. Falco knew it was the path to the Dark Side, but it felt so good to release that anger... even if it didn't help him with his battle. Falco still felt anger flooding through his body, his face flushed. He looked to his arm, where a scar was forming. How long have I been here? Falco scanned his room, making the most of his bitter capture.

Footsteps were heard just outside the cell. The sound of something metallic, and a shuffle as guards were shifted around.
The door opened up with a woosh, and an Imperial officer gave Falco a good long look. The officer had a narrow face and a sort of pinched look about him, like he spent most of his life in a black hole.
"You. Prisoner. Get up, we're going." He jerked his head towards the outside, where two stormtroopers were waiting to escort him.

Falco followed silently, his hands loosely hanging to his sides. In his many years of smuggling and bounty hunting, Falco learned that it was best to keep shut and to stay alert when you're facing a bad situation. Falco scratched his chin, to feel a starting growth of a beard.
Falco quickly marched down the hallways with the stormtroopers. The stormtrooper's click of their heel sounded crisp and succinct,, but Falco knew by their gait that they were exhausted. He knew he could make a move. Quickly he twin kicked the two troopers, and grabbed a gun from one of the stormtrooper's belts. He spun around and aimed the gun at the officer's head. "I wouldn't move if were you," he said, setting the blaster to full power.

The officer and the stormtroopers were so complacent they never saw it coming. They were down and out before they knew it.
The officer gave him a rather demeaning gaze, licking his dry lips and shrugging. "You do know that you will not be able to get anywhere. I give it five minutes before you are captured again."
His pale grey eyes flicked down to the stormtroopers getting back up. It was obvious they were unsure in this situation, because they looked at each other worriedly.

Falco shrugged almost carelessly. "I guess I'll have to take the chance." He made a quick combat move on the officer and elbowed one of the stormtroopers in his visor. He re-aimed carefully at the remaining trooper and shot at full power at his white chest plate. The other trooper was down on the ground, and didn't seem to get up anytime soon, and even if he did, Falco didn't have the time to examine.
He grabbed another blaster off the slain trooper's utility belt and grabbed a ID Authorization card off the fallen officer. He quickly ran down the halls, his silent footsteps behind him. He met a end, where a door with an ID swipe. He quickly swiped his card and proceeded to burst through the door. "Voice Identification." Dang, all the Empire systems I busted were older and didn't have this security measure. "See ya." He blasted the compartment. "INTRUDER ALERT. INTRUDER ALERT." Falco ran down the other way of the hall, trying to avoid all troopers and officers in his path.

A group of about six Stormtroopers and an officer practically flew down a hallway that intersected with the one Falco was currently running down.
"There he is! Shoot him, shoot him!" The Coruscani accent of the blond officer echoed down the metal hallway. It served to draw more troopers' attention to that particular area as well.

Falco was trapped between certain death and fighting the troopers. Falco chose the latter. He quickly hid behind a wall and shot down a trooper instantaneously, his quick, dexterous hands rapidly pulling the trigger. He aimed and shot down another. They were shooting back, their shots slightly off and slow. Falco saw the officer. He quickly aimed at him and shot a energy blast towards his arm. It seemed accurate.
Quickly Falco jumped out and shot another trooper, while delivering a spinning back kick to another trooper's chest. Two troopers were still remaining, as Falco blasted one of the others. He backflipped to avoid a powerful blast and shot the trooper with a spin in his wrist. He quickly aimed his gun at the officer's head. "They don't call me one of the best in the galaxy for nothin'. Where is the ship hangar? Tell me!"

The officer's arm was hurt and all he could do was snarl when the gun was aimed at his head, the group of troopers he had come with were either all dead or dispatched within minutes. He cursed his inability to act.
"I'll never tell you," he muttered, glaring up at Falco. "My failure here is as good as death anyway."
The sound of more troopers coming down the hallway was also apparent.

"Ah, what a brave one." Falco laughed bitterly before setting his blaster to stun, shooting the officer to a deep unconsciousness. "I never kill a unarmed man." Falco quickly ran down the hallway, where he saw a group of troopers heading his way. He quickly hid behind the corner. He prayed to the Force silently that he would be safe.

The troopers worked efficiently and quickly as they scanned the hallway, picking over the bodies of the fallen troopers and removing the unconcious Coruscani officer.
"Did we check over here?" The tinny metallic voice of one trooper pointed where Falco was hiding. Three troopers went to investigate.

"So much for the Force," Falco muttered under his breath, setting his blaster power to 'Silent Stun.' He wrapped his hands around the grip and waited. He hid in the shadows to give him some time. The troopers swarmed in slowly and clunkyly. He aimed and stunned one of the troopers, while shooting another, knocking him out cold. He jumped out and grabbed a trooper in a neck choke hold.
"Trooper Y7-023, are there any signs of the prisoner? Trooper Y7-023, are you there?"
"Tell him everything is okay, and you'll be just finishing up with the two others," Falco whispered, pointing to the two unconscious troopers. "Everything is okay, sir," the stormtrooper said in a wavering metallic voice, his blaster out of reach.
"Very well, Y7-023, moving out down Hall E-32."
Falco smiled. "There, it wasn't so hard," he said softly. He loosened his grip around the trooper's neck and grabbed his gun, sticking it in his utility belt. He had four guns now; enough to supply a squadron of troopers. He had killed that many. He tightened his grip again and whispered dangerously, "Now would you kindly show me where the Ship Hangar is, before I blast you're head off?"

The trooper swallowed and slowly led his captor to the Hangar Bay. Unfortunately, right before they entered the bay, a wandering officer spotted Falco with the trooper.
"Hey! What's going on here?" The middle-aged dark haired officer snapped curiously, full of pompous arrogance as he went to get a closer look.

Falco smiled. "Ready to join the party?" He spun another Empire-issued blaster off his belt and pointed it to the officer's head. "Another man to help me escape," Falco said, chuckling dangerously. "Soon the whole Empire will be at my side." Falco motioned for the trooper to continue to the Hangar Bay.

"Scum of the universe," the middle aged officer snarled but complied, after all he wasn't really the heroic type. They slowly but surely led Falco to the hangar bay, which was surprisingly empty.

"Scum is right. At least it's better than a d**n Empire-pet." Falco nodded and grinned dangerously as he entered the hangar bay. He knew he was very lucky to have made it this far, and that he was pushing his luck. He walked down the carpeted ramp and examined the room for cameras. There were none, surprisingly; probably for the shady, secret business the corrupt officers' did, but there was a small communications panel.
Inspecting the Bay, Falco discovered several Alliance ships, some damaged, but others in decent shape. He spotted a sleek, Red, imperial YT-1500 freighter that was named the Crimson Hawk. Falco took an immediate liking to it, and motioned for the troops to get into the ship. Still eying the entrance door for troops, as well as aiming a gun at the Imperial officer and his cohort, Falco slowly walked into the ship.
The freighter had been modified to it's finest, probably by some rich, bored officer who loved machinery. He found the controls to be easy, light and very user-friendly. He then proceeded to tie up the trooper, as well as the officer. The stormtrooper was bound to the wall, while the officer's legs and arms were tied tightly with Corren ropes, some of the strongest, used for lifting titanium and other heavy, indestructible metals. He looked at the officer and said with a mischievous grin, "Tell them to give us clearance, and send some extra troops. I need to have some target practice with this beauty." He saw the officer's worried face, and he added, "If you do as I say, I'll drop you off on some planet for you to get back to this death-strewn God-forsaken Imperial base." ((One: Can you give me feedback on improving my writing and Two: Is it okay that I used a minor curse word, or is that not acceptable?))
