"thank you." he said and looked down at his now holstered saber. " you guys do anything now adays?" he asked solemnly

"Take out big name crime lords who employ people who make friends with my sister-in-law," Shiloh said, and Estelle cackled. "But seriously…" Shiloh slipped into her partner's. "We stay busy."

Estelle grinned. "We make a living."

Winter laughed at what Shiloh had said.
“Yeah Hiro. We make a living. Me and Elias do pick up work when we feel like it. We’re part time bounty hunters. However, we take our people in alive. We’re actually employed by the Senate. And we’re senators, though we rarely show up unless we’re called. Senator Organa understands that better than most. She doesn’t ask for us to be there unless we really need to be. And we never asked to be senators. It just so happens that we’re technically the last of our kind, and our planet at one time was in a hot seat. We kind of had to show up. Then boom. We’re recognized as the senators and royal family of Hoth. We still have no idea how it really happened. It’s funny though. The people of the water dwelling planets do have a fear of us because they think we can freeze them. And our reputation as the bounty hunters of the Senate precedes us. It’s kind of cool.”
Elias nodded.
“Now Hiro, what do you do for work?”

" i used to do manual labor and fight for my bosses money. they'd make bets on us and if i earned enough id get to come here." he said and sighed " now that hes dead i dont have a job"

Winter looked at Elias and then looked at Hiro.
“You poor thing. They’re using you as a pit fighter? That is in no way safe, or healthy. And you don’t know if Estelle and Shiloh killed your boss. But the odds are up there. But if they didn’t, well… I think a little liberation lesson might be good for Frost. We’ll just have to see what comes our way.”
Elias nodded in approval.
“Fighting for someone other than yourself and the things you love most isn’t the way to go. I know for a fact that Estelle and Shiloh are already chomping at the bit to come start a liberation on Tatooine. I can already see the wheels turning.”

Estelle sighed at the mention of Senator Organa. Shiloh frowned and elbowed her partner. "Oh, go cheat on me with the Senator, why don't you?"

"No no no no no," Estelle whined. "It's not that! Darling…"

Shiloh rolled her eyes. "She's in love with the Senator."

"I'm not!" Estelle protested. It was clear they'd had this conversation before.

hiro laughed, kid like even. " sounds fun." he said though his laugh and watched the two " are you all dating?"

Winter beat them to it.
“They’re married! Estelle is my sister, and Shiloh is the best sister in law I could have ever asked for.”

" woah, thats actually pretty cool!' he said an smiled

Elias chimed in.
“Yeah. If anything ever happened to me and Winter, those two-“
He gestured at Estelle and Shiloh.
“Would be the only ones I would trust to take care of him. Well, maybe. If a Jedi master decided to take Frost in, I might would let it happen. But as we are going to Coruscant in a few months, we’ll more than likely see senator Organa. And everyone in the galaxy knows her brother. That Skywalker fellow. And needless to say, everyone also knows her Husband. A particular man by the name of Solo. If you wanna stick around to see if we can somehow get you to this Skywalker fellow, you’re more than welcome.”

"sounds like a deal " he said and sighed
hiro lowered his mask and stood, resetting frosts ball one more time " we should go, we've been here too long.." he said

Winter leaned back and stretched.
“Nah. Sit back down son. Whoever is looking for us will come in time. We might as well face the problem, instead of running from it. That’s where the fun really begins! It also give you an excuse to let out pent up anger. Which may not be the Jedi way, but it’s more along the lines of the gray space. We don’t use the dark side, we just know it’s there and we’ve balanced with it. It’s just our way.”

" and your wiling to fight a hole mob.."

Elias looked at Winter and then to Estelle and Shiloh.
“Hiro. The first time Winter and I actually fought together we mowed through a whole battalion of Stormtroopers. Shiloh is a highly skilled assassin. Estelle can charm her way out of anything, and then kill someone with a hair pin. Shiloh taught her extremely well. I think we can handle ourselves. It’s not our first rodeo…”

"Not only willing," Shiloh said confidently. "Experienced. Do you remember the asteroid?"

Estelle laughed knowingly. "Before then, I'd never touched a blaster in my life!"

" all right, ive always had one on one at most one on two.."

Winter chuckled.
“Well Hiro, welcome to the world of madness and chaos. We’re a family of three Hothians who can’t handle heat, an ex Hothian imperial test subject, and a twi-lek with a vendetta. Really what could go wrong?”
She raised her hand.
“Before you say anything Elias, Estelle and Shiloh, don’t you dare say anything. We all know the answer.”

" ma'am. alot can go wrong" hiro said and knocked on the wood of the table

Winter laughed.
“Giro! You don’t have to call any of us ma’am or sir. Just use our first names. Stars I felt so old when you said that!”
Elias looked at his drink and drained it.
“You said it kid. Lucky for us, we’re all experts in things going wrong. At this point, I don’t believe even knocking on wood could save us. But it’s worth a valiant shot.”
Elias knocked on the table and looked over at his son playing happily, and then he scanned the room. Nothing caught his eye yet.

Shiloh couldn't help but look around too. "Nothing," she remarked. "Not to jinx us, but I think we're good."

Before the words were out of her lips, the cantina doors opened, and a group of darkly cladded figures walked in. They all wore masks like Hiro.

"Damn, you just had to say something," Estelle griped.

"riight.. greatt" he said and reached for his saber. hiro didn't dare raise his mask as they stepped closer " got a problem?" he asked

Elias sighed.
“Hold on Hiro. Let me try to talk with them.”
Elias stood up and stretched.
“Alright. What’s the deal lads? Care to elaborate as to why you’re coming over to pay us a visit?”
Winter gently squeezed Frost’s hand and gently took his toy and placed it in one of her pockets. She leaned down and whispered in his ear.
“Alright son. Watch Ada carefully. You know the signal. When he gives it, I need to you make a distraction. You remember how to do that right?”
Frost looked up at his mother and smiled wickedly.
“Just like Auntie Estelle. Can I throw something Ama?”
Winter kissed his little head.
“When Ada gives the signal, yes.”

Shiloh slipped her hand onto Estelle's thigh protectively. She casually leaned forward to block the men from reaching for her wife in case it crossed their minds.

hiro gave a scowl, hearing the two whisper. " make sure they dont grab the kid either " he whispered. " they'll do anything to get what they want.." ( who wants teh fuck faces because i dont wanna say the wrong thing;-;)
