One isn't simply born into the life of a bounty hunter. It is a choice, a choice my father Jango had after being hardened and surviving the Mandalorian Civil Wars:
Jango fett is seen fighting off members of Death Watch alongside a group of True Mandalorians-My father for a time led the Mandalorians to victory- until the intervention of the Jedi cost him everything. Left with nothing but his armor and weapons, it was an easy choice to become a mercenary for hire.
Jango is alone as he is surrounded by a unit of Jedi on a battle torn snowy mountainous range, many dead Mandalorians and Jedi spread around-But the life of a bounty hunter comes with many obstacles, a great one being the competition from others- in time Jango Fett became known as the greatest bounty hunter of his time.
Jango is getting out of the Firespray-31 starship, Slave I alongside fellow bounty hunters Cad Bane and Aurra Sing on the planet Nar Shadda, with the denizens moving aside as the trio walks past them-A great competition gave Jango a greater reward grander than credits- me.
Jango is given an infant by a Kaminoan nurse within a clear room of Tipoca City-Among the creation of millions of clones for the purpose of war, my father had me- an unaltered one to call a son- he taught me everything he knew: how to survive against the odds, fight the impossible and maintain a code of honor... however years of training cannot prepare you for everything-
Jango, fighting against the Jedi, Mace Windu in a geonosian arena is decapitated and falls to the ground lifeless as ten year old Boba Fett watches in the sidelines-As the galaxy changed forever in the Clone War, I had to change too. A fruitless effort for revenge only taught me the harsh reality of life: I have to look out for myself- however I would not be alone. In my early career as a bounty hunter I had a team I could rely on.
Boba Fett, now clad in his father's repainted armor, leaves the equally repainted Slave One alongside bounty hunters, Bossk, Dengar, Latts Razzi, Highsinger and Embo along with his pet anooba, Marrok onto the forest grounds of Serenno.Once the Empire emerged after the war, the amount of opportunities became too great to share and my allies and I parted ways. During this time I was at my greatest- the galaxy would learn to fear the very name of Fett once more.
Boba Fett, now older kills a gang of slavers and helps to free a group of Twi'leks from a burning house on Ryloth-The goal of any respectable hunter is to get the best paying jobs to stay on top- this often meant those I worked for were not always the most respectable-
Boba drags a captured neimoidian before Jabba the Hutt who sits lazily on his massive throne surrounded by his many cronies and slaves-For decades I fought, bled against both I would consider allies and enemies. In the end it doesn't matter what anyone thinks of me. It's just another job to complete.
Boba engages in a battle with the dark clad warrior, Darth Vader over a fiery world, and the Sith lord stops and looks to Fett with an almost impressed glance-Eventually I became a legend- and every legend comes to an end. For a time, many believed my fate was decided in the bowels of the Pit of Carkoon-
Flashes of Boba Fett's jetpack being hit and the bounty hunter is sent flying before ramming into Jabba's sail barge and tumbles down into the mouth of the Sarlacc-It is not so.
...
Within a dark and tentacle covered stomach of the Sarlacc, Boba Fett lets out a muffled gasp as he awakens in the tight spaced insides, and once he activates his night vision on his Mandalorian helmet, he looks around in horror at the sight of tentacles wrapping around his arms and legs, with dozens of others struggling around, with some already have digested against the stomach walls-Breathing heavily, Boba tries to release his arms from the Sarlacc's internal tentacles holding his against the wall, and once the tendrils begin to hold his tighter, he activates a flamethrower on one of his arms, with sets the tentacle ablaze, which writhes in pain before releasing him-
Boba then growls as he uses his free hand to grab the tentacle and pull it against his jetpack- immediately, it clenches down and makes the jetpack activate and it begins to fly upwards-
