Rage stands up and he disappears from the holoproyector, and after a few seconds, an RA-7 protocol droid shows up.

"Like Mr. Rage is unable to..."

Someone interrupts him from behind.

"Oh. Shall I introduce myself? Very well.

My name is KLO-RA-7. Nicknamed Kilo by Mr. Rage.

Like Mr. Rage is unable to recall events from this point on, I will describe what was recorded in my data bank.

When we got to the dump and saw the bodies, Rage looked very upset. He had quite an impressive face, but when he saw the corpse of the Kaminoan... He completely lost control of himself. I remember that he looked at me, and I was struck by how his right eye had changed. His irises showed a bright yellow color, although his left eye still maintained its brown coloration.

I have to admit that even I, who lack emotions, felt what organics would describe as a "chills down my spine." I looked at the corpse of the Kaminoana and indeed, she was wearing the two earrings that Hina always wore, even though her face was disfigured. But something didn't add up.

When I turned around, Rage was heading towards the warehouse that could be seen at the bottom of the dump. He walked in a straight line, huge pieces of scrap metal moving in his wake. He didn't touch them, he didn't push them, but they just moved out of his way. In his right hand he carried his lightsaber... on. The typical scarlet color illuminated it in the immense darkness of the dump.

I remember his left hand shaking. His fingers opened and closed at times. And strange electrical discharges ran down his arm from his hand.

Before we can get there we find something... quite peculiar. A metal boat contained a small fire, and around it, about three Trandoshans doing their best to keep warm.

Trandoshan 1: - Hey. What is that light? - The Trandoshans turned and carried blasters.

Trandoshan 2: - What is that thing? -

Apparently the Trandoshans did not know what a lightsaber was. As they raised their weapons at Rage. I remember seeing the closest Trandoshan begin to levitate. Me and the other two were stunned. Unable to understand what was happening. Rage had his arm outstretched and his hand seemed to be trying to grab something. As if Rage was strangling the Trandoshan from a distance.

Finally, the lifeless body fell to the ground. The other two were startled, but before they could raise their weapons, Rage charged head-on, ripping them in half. I couldn't even record such a shocking speed.

Kilo: - Mr. Rage. What's going on? Where do we go? - However, Rage did not answer me or stop.

As we progressed, Rage cut into pieces all the Trandoshans who tried to stop him. It was kind of... creepy. The blasters passed him, but none reached him. Rage made huge jumps that were completely impossible and was so fast that I could barely keep up with him.

And with a lot of effort, I managed to catch up to him when he stopped silently in front of the main door of the warehouse. He seemed to be in shock, and had turned off his lightsaber, but there were 52. 52 Trandoshans had died from Rage's frenzy. And we hadn't even entered the main place.

Kilo: - Mr. Rage, please. You must calm down. - I tried to talk to him while he was waiting in front of the door, but when he looked at me and I saw that creepy yellow eye I knew I had to stay silent.

Rage refocused on his target. He looked ahead and slowly extended his hand. And without any apparent explanation, the two huge metal doors of 300 kilograms flew away as if they were light wooden planks.

The interior of the place was something I had never seen on my own before. A dark purple light illuminate the place. There was a strange walkway in the middle and several metal bars descended from the ceiling to the tables. Dozens of people were there and they all looked at us as we made our entrance. From what I could see, that place looked like a brothel.

On the other side of the warehouse was some kind of fancy chair. It looked more like a throne than a chair. And above it sat a huge Trandoshan dressed in extravagant purple and many gold chains and accessories.

Rage began to slowly walk towards him, but before he could get closer, he was surrounded by someten Trandoshans pointing blasters at him. No one present said a word. But then:

Trandoshano: - Well... well... well... My friend. You can't just show up at Tunk-Pilsa's house without an invitation.

It was him. The Trandoshan who was sitting on the throne was the one I could recognize in Hina's apartment. It seems that he was the owner of the place... or rather... the head of the Trandoshan mob.

Tunk-Pilsa: - And tell me? What brings you here? -

Rage was silent. His robe covered his face and his entire body. But those around him were completely unaware of what he was capable of.

Tunk-Pilsa: - Hey... Don't tell me you're coming for the Kaminoana. - He knows. He knew who we were. - We had an agreement. - Or maybe not.

Rage: - What are you talking about? - He said with a chilling voice.

Tunk-Pilsa: - I accepted your generous offer to disappear the Kaminoan... but you never said what we should do with her. So I thought I'd "play" with her a bit before I ended her life. I hope that does not bother you. -

Since Tunk-Pilsa made that comment, I am unable to understand exactly what happened. The ten Trandoshans surrounding Rage began to levitate as something seemed to be strangling them. Rage's cloak began to move wildly as if he were in the eye of a storm but there was no wind in that place. Rage yelled in fury and all the glass and stained glass windows shattered into pieces. Those present began to run wildly towards the entrance, but before they could escape, the most extreme happened.

Around Rage began to form a sphere of electrical energy that rotated erratically around his body, and in less than two seconds, a powerful discharge of lightning executed everyone present.

The image was terrifying. Dozens of roasted bodies lay on the ground, and Rage was right in the middle. Readings showed that the air was loaded with a strong smell of burned meat, and it was not for less.

The only survivor was Tunk-Pilsa, who hid behind his golden throne. Perhaps what saved his life. Rage started to walk slowly and turned on his red saber. The circuits were molten, and the only existing light was the scarlet light emitted by Rage's saber.

Tunk-Pilsa: - No... no... no... Have mercy. I swear nothing has happened to her... I swear. Please... Mr. Sidiuos. -

The Trandoshan lay on the ground. Crawling on his back trying to get away from Rage. But before he could react, Rage plunged the saber into his chest and Tunk-Pilsa died instantly.

I stood watching from outside the building. I believed that following Rage would not be a good idea... and with good reason. If I had, the discharge would have blown my circuits as well. After killing Tunk-Pilsa, Rage stopped moving. He stood for a few seconds next to the corpse... but then he collapsed on the ground."
