"Well you certainly made a mess of things."
"Who's there?!"
She reached for the blaster at her belt before remembering it had been confiscated by Kuross.
"Up here."
"Who-what are you?"
The figure was difficult to percieve, possessing an insubstantial appearence that faded in and out at random, looking just like a...
"Wraith."
Exactly! Hey?! Wait a minute! Was he...
"Reading your mind? Yes."
"What are doing here?"
She eyed the floating being, he looked relatively harmless, but from her experiences here nothing was as it seemed.
"Your next Labor awaits."
Next labor? But what about...
"You failed this one. Final Score: -500."
What?!
"-100 points for not going to rescue Red from the slavers. -100 for going to the Imperials when you're wanted by them. -50 for letting Kuross get the drop on you. -250 for being imprisoned and the resulting failure to even finish your Labor. This may be the shortest failure in RRO history."
"Hey! I can do it, just give me a chance!"
Wraith shook his head.
"Your dimensional analouge will be sent back to the Slavers, tortured and drugged into obedience, then sold off to the Hutts and eaten by one of their pet monsters a few months later."
That left her silent.
"Come along then."
The wall behind Wraith faded into obscurity, revealing a path out.
