"Ok.... You got this." You said, mentally preparing yourself. You were a pretty successful bounty hunter. Every mark you've gotten, you've either killed them or captured them alive. Now you were going after the biggest mark of your life.
The republic senator Padme Amidala. The CIS put a huge bounty on her. Huge enough to were you could retire early. Other bounty hunters have tried and failed to claim it. Now was your time. If you claim this mark, you will be set for life.
But getting to her won't be easy. Guards would patrol outside her apartment. But that didn't stop you. You bribed a guard for his uniform and it was all set from there.
You were walking to her door, preparing yourself. You got to her door and ready to hack it open, but it opened up itself. You've been on enough mark to know what's happening next. You drew your blaster and walked slowly, looking out for any surprises and to find Padme. You search the suite up and down for her, but she's not here.
"Damn. Did I just miss her?" You questioned. As you ponder, you felt a blaster to your back.
"Don't move. And drop the blaster" Padme said. You listen and lower the gun to your side.
"I said drop it."
"I don't think so." You said. You had the gun pointed at her foot and fired.
"Ow!" She shouts. While she's stunned, you disarm her and hit her with the gun butt. She falls to the ground and scurries to her couch. You take a look at her and she is beautiful. Not that you haven't killed pretty women before, just that the senator seemed to be in a league of her own.
"Wait! Who hired you? I'll double what they are offering." She said.
"I highly doubt you can match it." You chide.
"Really? Name your price."
"Sorry. I'm a one man contract person." You said.
Before you could shoot her, she throws her pillow at you. You easily dodge it, but she levels a blaster at you and shoots you.
"Urk....." You said as you stumble a bit. You return a few shots. One grazes her and the others hits the wall.
You feel a burning sensation in your chest and woozy. Your sight gets hazy and you collapse on the ground.
"Oh....." You said regaining conscious.
"Oh, good. You awake." A voice said. You know that voice. It's the senator. But it sounds loud. You turn around to see a frightening sight. It was the senator, except she was huge and smiling down at you. You wanted to run but she grabbed you. She takes you to a table and puts you down on it and takes a seat.
"So little hunter. Now do you want to negotiate? " She said as her smile turns a bit smug. You grit your teeth for being talked down to.
"I'm a fair person. So. How about you tell me who hired you and who gave you their guard uniform, and I won't make your life as miserable as possible with me." She said.
"Wait. You're going to keep me? At this size? And what do you mean with you?" You asked.
"I am. I must say, the black market has everything a lady needs. She said, with a chuckle."As for the last part, I can't have you going back to a life of killing. So I plan on keeping you with me. It won't be bad at all. I'll take good care of you." She said, smiling.
Your world was shaken. What should have been an in and out job just got turned on its head. Now you were shrunken and at the mercy of Padme. She was planning on keeping you with her at this size after you told her who sent you. You had pride yourself on professionalism. Never giving up your employer and completing your contracts to the T.
But this situation is different. Even though she's a Republic senator, who's staunchly against torture and slavery, you doubt she would uphold that value now. Plus, being with a gorgeous lady can't be that bad. You'd never have to worry about credits again.
"So, little hunter.... What will it be?" She said.
