In the Rebel Alliance flagship Home One, squad D of Twilight Company is in the lounge area.

"We've been on the run for 2 years." Gregor said

"Could be worse." Logan said

Kikks walks over to the jukebox. Stevie Ray Vaughan's 'Tightrope' begins to play.

"Nice choice, sarge" Buck says

Before anyone can say anything, Darman and his Special Forces squad walk in.

"Well look at what we got here." Darman said

"Keep it cool Kikks." Roach said

"If you're here to start trouble then leave." Checkman said

"Shut it runt." Drax says

"You and your lackeys aren't welcome here." Kikks said

"You're one to talk. If I had to my way, I'd throw you and your brothers out." Darman said

"I'd rather join a band of pirates then follow the Rebellion under your leadership." Kikks said

"How dare you! If it now for us you'd be dead." Willis said

"I think we would've been fine. You know what your problem is Darman. You're too cocky." Kikks said

"Oh please, why should I listen to someone with the most pathetic family in the galaxy." Darman said

Kikks, Logan, and Gregor stand up.

"Run that by us again?" Gregor asked

"You heard me." Darman said, pushing Kikks

On the jukebox Stevie Ray Vaughan's 'House is a 'rockin' begins to play.

Kikks smiles to himself and sucker punches Darman.

"No one disrespects our family." Logan says

Darman gets to his feet.

"You're dead Twilight." Darman says

A brawl breaks out between the two squads. Roach takes a chair and slams it against the back of a Special Forces troops. Buck jump kicks Drax into the table. Darman gets up and lunges at Kikks. Kikks moves out of the way. Darman punches Kikks in the eye. Kikks grabs a bottle and slams against Darman's head. 45 minutes go by and Darman and his team are lying battered and broken in the mess of what was left of the lounge. The members of Twilight Company are sitting at the bar passing around a bottle of whiskey while listening to Frank Sinatra's 'Live Until I Die'. Rebel Security personnel walk in.

"Get these men some medical attention."

Six medical personnel walk in with stretchers to remove Darman's team.

"You and your squad are to be detained."

"Let's get this over with." Buck said downing the rest of the whiskey

They all turn around and hold out their hands.
