Freed from the shackles, Jango kept his eyes on Rigorra’s swoop gang. They rode in a great circle around the arena, weaving around one another and blocking all the avenues of escape. Aurra, Bossk, and the yellowskinned captive—Jango still didn’t know his name—cautiously stepped away from their own posts.

Someone aimed a spotlight at the center of the arena. There, a rope dangled from the high ceiling, and at the end of the rope, suspended three meters above the floor, was a mesh bag. Through the mesh, weapons were visible. Jango could see his own blasters and wrist gauntlets, as well as Aurra’s pistols and rifle. Other weapons were also visible.

“Those’re my blasters!” Bossk said, and ran for the center of the arena.

“Stop!” Jango shouted as he bolted after Bossk. “It’s a trap!”

But it was too late. Bossk’s focus was on the weapons in the bag, and his powerful legs launched him up until his claws snagged through mesh. Weapons rained down on him, and Bossk snatched up his blasters while the other bounty hunters did the same.

However, Jango was right. It was a trap. Before any of the hunters had a chance to use their weapons, four concealed pressure-sensitive trapdoors dropped open beneath their feet, and each hunter vanished through the arena floor.

Jango found himself sliding down through a tubular shaft, slipping fast past glow strips that were embedded into the walls to illuminate the shaft’s interior. He tried to slow his descent by extending his arms and legs to reach the walls, but the walls were smooth and offered little resistance to the weight of his falling body. Out of control, he continued to slide.

The shaft angled and sent him down a steep incline. Twisting his body slightly, he raised his head to look down and stare past his boots. As the embedded glow strips raced past his sliding form, he saw the shaft widen and end against a wall of stone. A single hole, barely one meter in diameter, was set at the lower left of the wall. Unfortunately, Jango was sliding to the right.

Jango threw his body hard to the left and sailed through the hole. He spilled out into an excavated chamber and hit the floor hard. Sitting up, he checked to make sure he hadn’t lost any of his weapons on the way down. He’d barely had time to secure his wrist gauntlets before he’d plunged through the trapdoor.

Seeing that his weapons were all in place, Jango examined his surroundings. He was in a circular, domed-ceiling chamber with a wraparound wall that was lined with large boulders. Except for the way he’d come in, the chamber appeared to be completely enclosed.
