After...How long was it? Mick wasn't keeping track. All he can say is, if he had to guess, he'd say he's a half hour away from the object - a portal, as it appears. He comes across two...Are they Stormtroopers? He can only assume they're Stormtroopers. He comes across two of them, heading towards the Fountain.
"Looks like we didn't have to walk far." one of the two says.
"Why should I?" Mick asks. The Heat Gun powers on, a mechanical whirring noise being heard.
"We can offer you information about the Omniverse." the other one says. "However, if you don't, we will be forced to fire."
"Uh...Sir?" the first one asks.
"Yes?" the second one responds.
"I don't think this Prime is gonna be on our side..."
"Why is that?"
"Because his weapon just powered on."
A smile forms on the arsonist's face as he aims the Heat Gun at the first trooper. Quickly, they respond by drawing their weapon.
"WHY DO THEY CALL YOU PEOPLE THE HEAT?!" he shouts. "I'M THE HEAT!"
With that, Mick pulls the trigger. A beam of flame comes out and strikes the first trooper, the 15-second blast weakening them.
They are knocked on their back by the blast, but quickly get up. Mick - in needing to let the Heat Gun cool down - runs up to the soldier, rips the white and black helmet off of their head, and performs a punch. The Stromtrooper ducks it, but is met with Mick's knee in their face. The second trooper fires at Mick, and lands the hit on his left knee, pain erupting through that leg as the hot plasma bolt makes a burn mark on his kneecap. Mick performs another punch on the soldier that he was tangling with, meeting it's mark straight on the opponent's jaw, before following it up with a backhand smack. The Stormtrooper is knocked to his hands and knees. Mick kicks him square in the jaw, knocking him out.
He then diverts his attention to the other trooper, who has another shot aimed in his direction. The trooper fires, and hits Mick's left shoulder, creating another mark from the bolt, the pain spreading throughout Mick's upper arm.
"You know what the best part of coming to this new world is?" the arsonist asks. He then raises the Heat Gun - which has, by now, cooled down - to the Stormtrooper's chest, and fires, keeping the beam's focus on the white-clad soldier throughout the whole 15-second blast. He's knocked flat on his back, and starts struggling to get up. Mick grabs the trooper's helmet off his head, and throws it aside, before kicking the Stormtrooper's head, knocking him out.
"Watching it burn." Mick says. As the Heat Gun cools down, he walks up to the first Stormtrooper.
"It might not be a great idea to let these two live; they could probably set up an ambush or something." Mick says, stating the smartest thought he's had all day. He sits down, and waits for the Heat Gun to finish cooling down. "When the Heat Gun cools down, I'll make sure they burn."
And that's just what he does. Each time the Heat Gun finishes cooling down, Mick fires a lethal blast of fire at one's head, until both are dispatched, then tucks the Heat Gun away in his overcoat and continues down the path to Coruscant.
About a half an hour or so later - Mick's previous guess had been correct - he reaches the gate to Coruscant. The Stormtroopers who are there don't seem to have seen the carnage that ensued behind the arsonist...Or they're just idiots.
"Where does this gate lead?" Mick asks, staring at the portal.
"Coruscant...The heart of the Empire." one of the two Stormtroopers guarding this side of the gate responds.
"...Then that's exactly where I'm going."
The arsonist takes a deep breath, ready to enter a world likely unlike what he's seen before...And enters.
