The three Westside gangsters collectively flinch as the skybike collides with Harlan, caving in his chest and snapping his neck on impact. They duck down as the bullets rain, Dungbomb and Danny creating Shield Charms around themselves and Kirg. When the robot has left and the gunfire dies down, they raise cautiously to their feet. Harlan Higgs, a powerful enemy of the Orc Mafia and the only known Amaranth connection in Coruscant, lay twisted and broken on the floor of the Top Kek. Then they hear a snap.
"That's not right," says Kirg as Harlan's ribs start to snap back into place. Harlan rises to his feet, his head hanging loosely by a broken neck.
Danny hides Dungbomb's eyes with here hands, and Dungbomb hides Danny's eyes with her hands. The twins each open their hands a tiny bit around the others eyes so they can peek through.
Harlan reaches up and twists his neck back into place with a deep cracking sound that echos around the bar. He dusts himself off and smiles at the Westsiders.
"You know the way out, I'm sure," Harlan says. Not asks.
"Uh," says Danny intelligently.
"Hey um, can you book our band?" asks Dungbomb. "We could never play here when the Metalheads ran it."
"What," says Harlan. Not asks.
"You're Dungbomb, right?" Audrey interjects. "You play bass for the Bludgers?"
"Yeah!" says Dungbomb brightly. "You've seen us?" she asks specifically; a lot of people could claim to have 'heard' the Bludgers, and have, in police reports.
The greyscale woman nods. "You know..." she says to Harlan.
"Table it," says Harlan, with a wave of his hand. Dungbomb grins. Kirg grunts.
"Oh yeah," says Danny, reaching into her leather jacket and pulling out a crumpled note and handing it to Harlan.
Harlan browses the note, on which is written three names, and some descriptions.
Jorshefuttin "Shorty" Dri'gaklia, Male, Dwarf, hammer tattoos on fists
Vai'oni Kotay'll, Male, Twilek, Yellow
Neil "Ravenblood" Fumph, Male, Goth
"Those are the guys," says Danny "That are pushing YOUR drugs in schools."
Harlan looks down at the list, then back up at the Westside, who stare resolutely back. Harlan nods.
"Understood."
