ooc: that's fine =]

The environment around Bozak was rich. While there were certainly many machines and workers around, the air was fresh and the fields were green, save those that grew different harvest. However, the one Bozak had been directed to was obviously different than them all.

Nothing had been changed except for two things: All the workers had been ordered out, and a electro fence had surrounded the area. The gate that Bozak approached was the only way in or out, and it was guarded by a squad of four.

As the lizard came forward, one of the guard stepped forward, his gun holstered.

"Are you here for the hunt, sir?" the man asked, looking at Bozak's equipment and appearance with distaste. He was obviously a pro-Imperial, with anti-alien in his blood. But the Empire had allowed aliens into their society now that the Emperor was dead, and the man would follow his orders.

Behind the gate came a bellow of a wookiee.

"Wait inside," the officer directed. "The hunting will begin shortly. Others are also arriving."

Inside, a waiting room had been freshly made, with just new materials to create a makeshift room. Inside were another 3 hunters, all cleaning their weapons.

A Rodain nodded to Bozak as he walked in, with a nasty pike hefted against his shoulder. He was heavily bulit, unusual for a Rodain, and wore combat equipment.
A normal looking male human sat in another corner, with two droids at his sides. They looked heavily modified, and their orginal type unreadable.
And lastly a Shistavanen, male by his white fur. He carried a heavy blaster rifle, that caused his arms to strain as he lifted it.

The room was silent but held tension as they waited for the hunt to begin.

An Imperial officer came into the room, with an escort of a pair of stormtroopers. He looked at the hunters before him and spoke:

"The public has been gathered," he reported. "And the wookiees are being released now. Anything within that fencing area is your playground, but anything else and you will be punished by the Empire."

He activated a screen on the wall, with 5 wookiee pictures on them. They were various colours, mostly golden brown, two of them white and with mixed streaks and patches. All of them were fairly healthy and strong, and would be an interesting challenge.

"These are your targets," the man said. "Guards will only be at the gate, so if you befall to one of these wookiees, there will be no help. The fences are active and will harm you if you try to mess with them."

"Understood? Any questions?"

RJ

"Very well then," the Imperial officer said. "If you'll come with me, I will show you the 'arena'."

The man lead them through the waiting room, which came to a viewport. It showed the large field that would be their playground.

There were six different areas, as expected of a field of harvest for food. Each area had a metal walkway plank boarding them. When the hunters would enter through the gate below the viewport, they would come out into a open field of cut grass. It expanded not far until it was met with the boarding walk-planks. Then the hunters would have five choices of areas.

The first one on their right, was the tall deep fields of gainery. Tall stalks growing lumps of food at their tips extended far. It was hard to navigate through, and was a probably hiding spot for a wookiee. Cutting tools were available, but they were noisy and were sure to alert anyone near.
Further south of this field, were tall trees that grew berries. The foliage in the trees was thick, but left the ground completely visiable. Ladders were available to climb up the trees.
On their left would be rows of wooden walls, with vines crawling all over them. It would be a difficult hunt if the hunter suddenly found himself facing a wookiee on the otherside, unable to get to him quickly enough.
Yet again, further south of this field was the most dangerous one of all the fields, contain the sharp bushes that grew the sweetest fruits of all. The bushes were as tall as a full grown wookiee, but was dangerous to hide in. Hovering droids aided harvest from these thorny bushes.

And in the middle was the processing factory for all of those materials. Inside, machinery worked relentlessly to process and pack all the food. The Imperials had left it operational for this hunt, just for a spice for the hunt.

“As you can see,” the man said. “Everything has been left to an usual farming area. We ask that you do not destroy equipment or the harvest unnecessarily. Doing so will cause repayments needed.”

Guiding them downstairs, they opened up the gates to the wide fields. Once they stepped through, the gates closed again, the electric pulsing alive once more. The hunt was on!

Korin

Again, the slight movement in the tall grass showed itself. It was deep into the grass, and moving deeper. If Korin were to catch up to it, he better act soon. Off to the side laid a cutting tool that would enable Korin to move fast through the thick tall grass, but cause considerable noise.

But then again, best to think ahead. If he were to catch up with the wookiee, what would he do?

Bozak

The flames shot out and caught the tree on fire easily. The area soon became glowing red, as other trees also caught on fire. Alarms went off, and droids came to the trees rescue, showering them with water.

As for Bozak's prey...down dropped the white furred Shistavanen, his fur slightly singed.

"What is the meaning of this," he growled, his huge blaster raised and up. "Mean do you to attack other hunters instead of the prey?"

RJ

"Welcome to the hunt," the guard said with a shrug. He motioned to the guard at the control box to open the gates.

The electrofield went down as the gates parted, and the mysterious cloaked figure was allowed onto the starting grassy patch. Behind, the gate closed, activating once more.
