Once the doors opened, we stepped out, only for two men to step in front of us. "You there! Up-worlder!" The first one with short black hair said, where we stopped. "Anyone using this elevator has to pay the toll!" He said, with me crossing my arms.

"Yeah, this is our elevator! If you use it, you've got to give us something!" The second one said, this one having longer hair than his friend.

"I don't believe this planet!" Carth said, with me looking at him. "Even the beggars are trying to shake us down!" He said, with me shaking my head as he was right.

"Five credits! That's what it costs to use our elevator! Five credits!" The first one said, with me smirking at that.

Holding my hand out to Rika, she looked at me as I had stopped her from talking. "Let me handle this." I said, stepping forward. Taking out my blaster, I fired in the air, with them backing off and gaining everyone's attention. "Be smart who you shake down, not stupid." I said, putting my blaster away. "You want to shake down someone, make sure you have a weapon, and that you out number them completely. Now beat it!" I said, with them running off.

"Was that necessary?" Rika asked as she stepped in front of me.

"Not really, just wanted to get my point around is all." I said, looking at a woman as she ran over to us.

"I'm sorry about that... Those two beggars give everyone in the village a bad name! We aren't all like that, you know. Most of us are good people." She said as Carth walked over to us.

"I'm sure you are, miss. It's just too bad you're little welcoming committee is there to give people a bad first impression." Carth said, with the woman looking at him.

"My name is Rika, this is Carth and Dakota." Rika introduced, holding her hand out to all of us.

"My name is Shaleena... you're from the up-world, aren't you? I've... I've never seen it. I was born here in the undercity. Is it as nice as they say up there?" She asked, making me feel sorry for her.

"It's nothing special, but that's only to us, to you on the other hand, it would be like seeing beauty at it's finest." I said, with her smiling at that.

"I've never been to the surface, but sometimes I think I can see it in my dreams. The sun, the sky, the stars... it all sounds so... so... so wonderful." Shaleena said, a true smile on her face as she thought about what the world looked like. "Gendar, the leader of our village, tells me I should spend more time trying to improve things down here and less time dreaming about something I can never have. Maybe he's right." She said, with me frowning at that. "You probably think I'm a fool, having dreams of a place I've never even seen. But when I was little, Rukil used to tell me stories of what it was like up there."

"Rukil, whos that?" Rika questioned, with me looking behind us, making sure no one was listening in.

"Rukil's the oldest man in the village. The kids call him Rukil Wrinkle-Skin, but he's a kind man. He used to tell me the greatest stories when I was a little girl. I still like to listen to his tales about the Promised Land, even though I know they're just legends. But it helps to make the undercity seem less... less dark, somehow." Shaleena said, with me smiling at that as I looked back at her.

"What's the Promised Land?" Rika asked, with Shaleena smiling even more.

"It's... it's a story to make little children smile. Rukil believes in it, though. Sometimes I can almost believe it myself, but then I look around and see the ugly truth." Shaleena said, losing her smile with a sigh. "I guess we have to make the best of what we have though. If you really want to learn more about the promised land you should speak to Rukil."

"Where would he be?" Rika asked, with crossing her arms as she was interested in the story.

"He's wandering around somewhere on the south side of the village. He doesn't move too far... it's hard on his bones. He's over one hundred years old!" Shaleena said, impressing me at the mans age. "The children laugh at him and people think he's crazy because of his stories about the Promised Land, but he's really just a kind old man." She said, looking behind her. "You'd probably get more information from Gendar, the village leader. Or maybe Rukil. But I'll tell you whatever I can." She said, looking back at Rika.

"Do you know anything about the escape pods that crashed into the undercity?" Carth questioned, with Shaleena looking at him.

"I don't know anything about that, but maybe Gendar could help you. Sorry... Is there anything else you need?" Shaleena asked, looking at all of us.

"That will be all, thank you." I said, holding my hand out to her, which she shook.

"Oh... Okay. Well, if you ever need anything, or if you just feel like talking, come back and see me. I hardly ever get a chance to speak to someone from the up-world." She said, smiling as she turned around and walked away.

"We should find Gendar." Carth said, with us following Rika as she started walking through the village.

As we walked, Rika came to a stop and pointed over to a man who was talking to a group of people before they walked off. Walking over to him, the man looked at us and smiled, bowing slightly. "Greetings, up-worlder. We rarely see your kind here in the undercity. I find it strange that so many of you have come down from the surface recently." The man said, with me knowing that this was Gendar.

"No offense, but I can see why people normally avoid this place." Carth said, with me looking at him with a look that said "are you serious".

The man nodded and looked back at Rika. "Why have you come into this dark and sunless place? Is there something you need of me or my village? I will help you however I can." He said, with Rika nodding her head.

"Can you tell me about the Rakghoul's that live down here?" Rika asked, with me wanting to know so that we could get a sample and provide them with the cure.

"The Rakghoul's are monsters, hideous mutations who feast on the flesh of our villagers. Their diseased jaws can infect those they attack, transforming the victim into one of those abominations. We know of no cure for the disease, and for the good of the village we must banish any who become infected, least they transform and turn on us." He said, making me feel sorry for any who became infected.

"A Twi'lik named Mission Vao comes down here, is there anywhere that she likes to go?" I asked, with the man looking at me and nodding.

"Yes, I have seen this Twi'lik many times, though I have never spoken to her. She and her Wookiee companion often pass through our village on their way to explore the sewers." Gendar informed with a nod.

"How do we get there?" Rika asked, looking from me to Gendar.

"There are two entrances into the sewers from the undercity: One to the north east of our village, the other to the south east. But the sewers are dangerous, Up-Worlder. He informed with me looking at Rika as we had some good information on where to look for the two. If you dare to travel those dark tunnels you would be wise to go heavily armed, unless you wish to become a meal for the Rakghoul's and other foul creatures." He said, with Rika nodding as she looked at me.

"Thank you, we will be on our way!" Rika said, where they shook hands before we started walking away.

"Should you have need of anything else, come speak to me. I represent the entire village and I will do my best to help you however I can." He called out, with us walking away.

"I believe you should find and talk to Rukil, I'll meet you at the gate down there!" I said, with both of them nodding as I walked away from them and over to the gate.

Reaching the gate, the guard looked at me, with me nodding and leaning against the wall, looking through the gate, curious on what the Rakghoul looked like. "Hurry, Hendar, hurry! I can hear it coming!" I heard, with me looking at the woman that ran up to the gate as a weird noise was being made from the other side. Looking back at the sound of running, I saw Rika and Carth running over as well.

"He'll never make it. He's doomed." The gate man said, groaning. "I told him he was a fool to leave the village!" He said, looking back out as we saw a man running with strange white creatures following him.

"He WILL make it! Run, Hendar! Run!" She yelled, with me pulling out a blaster and taking aim through the gate.

"Open the gate! Quickly! There isn't much time!" Hendar said, with me trying to get a good shot in.

"I... I cant... The Rakghoul's are too close!" The gate man said, with me gritting my teeth as I couldn't get a shot in.

"The mutants will kill him if you don't open the gate!" The woman said, gearing for the mans life.

"And If I open the gate they will kill us all!" The man said, with me looking at him, then to Rika, as she was pondering on what to do.

"No! You cant do this, this isn't fair!" She said, where she turned to me. "Please, make him open the gate. Hendar will die if he doesn't!" She said, looking at where I was looking, seeing Rika.

"I cant open the gate... not while the Rakghoul's are so near." The gate keeper said with a frown.

"Open the gate, we will kill the Rakghoul's!" Rika said, making me smile at her choice.

"You would risk your life for a stranger? Heh. You are brave, up-worlder... I will open the gat for you, but you've got to be quick. In a few seconds I will close and lock it again." He said, where he started opening the gate, with us rushing threw.

Once we stepped through, Carth and I started shooting the single Rakghoul as it approached while Rika ran forward. Carth and I stepped to the side as to not hit her, still shooting the Rakghoul as Rika got closer. Once in range, she severed the head from the beast, with it rolling on the ground.

Once the gate opened again, Carth and I stood guard while Hendar and Rika ran threw, with us stepping in just before it closed on us. "I cant thank you enough for saving me, up-worlder. If I had anything but these rags on my back it would be yours. But we have nothing." He said, with me feeling sorry for these people even more.

"I still have you, Hendar. That's all I need. Lets go back to the village." The woman said, with me looking at her as she held her hand out to Hendar, which he took and started walking away with her.

"That's love if I've ever seen it." I said, crossing my arms with a smile on my face. "Lets go back through, we need to find Mission." I said, with them nodding and turning back to the gate that was opened for us, with us stepping through. "There's one to the south and one to the north, I say we explore the area first." I said, with them nodding.

"I know how good of a shot you are, so you heard to the south and we will check the north." Carth said, with Rika looking at him.

"Is that safe?" She asked, crossing her arms. "You saw that Rakghoul, even when you shot it plenty of times it still charged like it was nothing." She said, with me placing a hand on her shoulder.

"Trust me when I say this, I can take care of myself." I said, with them nodding. "We meet back here once we've searched our entire area, deal?" I asked, with them nodding. "No one goes into the sewers, just patrol the area around first." I said, with them nodding again before we started walking into different directions.

Walking to the right while they walked to the left, I made my way further from them. As I walked, I took notice to an escape pod. Walking over to it, I opened the hatch, with me seeing that it was empty. Moving the seat forward, I found a lightsaber, a double sided one at that. Taking it out, I examined it and ignited it, with me seeing that the color was yellow, before turning it off.

Backing up from the pod, I looked to the ground and saw a Mine, with me looking around and seeing more of them. Smirking, I started disabling them one by one and collecting them, four in total. After finishing the last one, I started walking further south, when I took notice of a man holding his stomach. Walking over to him, he looked up at me.

"H... Help me! Please! I can... I can fell it inside my skin! Something growing... like some kind of hideous disease!" He said, with me helping him lay down.

"You're infected... I can end your pain." I said, with him nodding. Holding the lightsaber over his heart, I ignited the blade, before turning it off soon after. He died with a smile, where I then closed his eyes as I laid him down.

Getting up, I turned to see a Sith Patrol heading my way. "You there! Civilian! This is a restricted area! What are you doing down here?" The commander said, getting in my face.

"Search and rescue, a few patrols went missing, I was hired to get them back." I said, with him backing up with a nod.

"A bounty hunter, well, we didn't go missing, but the other patrol further down did, we even ran out of the Rakghoul serum." He said, stepping past me.

"I split up from my team, I told them to wait by the gate for me once they finished searching the north, if you see them, let them know I'm fine." I said, with him nodding. "I'll find the others, when I do, I'll contact HQ and let them know of their fate and to send a crew down to collect, don't want these ragged freaks to get any wrong ideas, now do we?" I asked, with him turning to me.

"I hear that, as you were." He said, turning around and walking away.

"Damn Sith." I muttered as I turned around and continued on my way. After a few hundred yards of walking, I took notice of three Rakghoul's walking about, with me grabbing the lightsaber on my side. "I may be no Jedi, but it is the best weapon I have." I said, running forward and gaining their attention. Seeing them running at me, I jumped over one and ignited the lightsaber, with me spinning around on the ground and cutting two of them down, with me turning around and stabbing the last one in the head as if I was holding a Javelin.

Turning the blade off, I watched it fall down, with me putting the blade away. Walking over to a corpse that was nearby, I seared it and found some credits and a medpac. Standing up, I made my way around the corner, with me seeing four more.

Running over to them, they took notice and charged as well. Sliding under one, I turned the blade on and cut it down. Rolling forward after turning it off, I pulled out my blaster and placed it in the mouth of one and pulled the trigger, with it going out the back of the head. Igniting the lightsaber once more, I spun it around and cut the last two down, saving my life as they came at me from both sides.

Standing up, I looked at the lightsaber and smirked at it. "This is badass." I said, turning it off and walking on, with me seeing a gate of sorts. Hearing a blaster shot, I turned around and saw Carth, Mission and Rika running up to me, with me raising an eyebrow at this. "Where is Zaalbar?" I asked Mission as I looked back at her.

"He's in trouble, we need to save him or he will get sold into slavery!" She said, with me nodding.

"We also found a serum from a dead patrol, it will come in handy." Carth said, with me nodding while looking at the gate.

"Well, lets go find Zaalbar." I said, with the four of us entering the sewers.
