"Pure Sabbac," the Admiral Matthew Maciejewski calls as he takes the credit chips. "I win again."

"You cheat," the Trandoshan hissed at the Hylian as he took his winnings. "This is the third game in a row you won."

"You are just mad that you lost 5,000 credits to me."

"I do not like to loose," the Trandoshan said as he got up and attacked the Hylian and tries to slash his throat. The Admiral grabs him by the neck and throws him into a wall. The Trandoshan is knocked out cold.

"Stupid drunks," the Admiral muttered as a squad of stormtroopers came in.

"Matthew Varea, you are under arrest," the stormtrooper said.

"What are the charges," the Admiral asked.

"Smuggling."

The stormtrooper put stun cuffs on him and escorted him to the detention center. When they arrived they escorted him to an interrogation room. There an officer was sitting behind the desk in the detention center. He had the rank of Commander.

"Captain Varea, we meet at least," the Commander said.

"Who are you?"

"I am Commander Piett," the officer said. "I am in charge of this region. I have been after you for months."

"Should I feel honored," the Admiral asked Piett.

"You should, it is not normal I conduct interrogations. Now, I know you have been smuggling weapons to the Rebels. Where are your contacts located?"

"I have no idea what you are talking about. I know nothing of about the Rebels, besides what I seen in the holos."

"You clam you have no connection to them, where are your landing permits?"

"Permits, I don't need no stinking permits."

"Fine, guard take him to his cell," Piett called. A stormtrooper came in the room. He pointed the gun at the Admiral, then turned and pointed the blaster at Piett and fired. Blue stun archs came out and stunned the commander. The trooper took of the helmet to reveal the face of a woman. She had blond hair, and red eyes.

"About time you showed up, Merrell" the Admiral complained.

"Sorry, I had quietly take care of the troopers outside."

She motioned to Piett, "What do we do with him?"

"Leave him," the Admiral said. "Now lets get out of here."
