A Few Months Later



3rd Person


Silence. 


Coruscant was not the type of planet to know such a word. 


Whether day or night, the roaring speeders and bustling crowds of people never subsided.


However, CoCo Town was in a league of its own.


Home to all the cheap establishments one could ask for, the dilapidated district was particularly disorderly.


Clamorous hordes of hard-working laborers, eager to secure a seat at a diner.


Noisy discourse everywhere, a side-effect of marketplace haggling.


Booming music, blasting from the myriad of shoddy taverns.


Hosting a lively nightlife, CoCo Town was a hub for the common galactic citizen.


Among the rowdy district's metropolitan symphony, one sound rose above the rest.


"Tap. Tap."


"Tap. Tap."


"Tap. Tap."


Footsteps. A staggered, pair of footsteps.


"Tap. Tap."


"Tap. Tap."


The footsteps ceased.


"SLAM! SLAM!"


Two cloaked figures landed on the roof of Bottomless Bantha Burger. Maintaining their pace, the figures persevered, seamlessly bounding across the spaces between buildings.
