Tonight, we hunt Outsiders!
Set after Civil War, showing the fate of Lucifer Anghelscu and a prelude to the War of Mewni.
--------------------
Montressor Spaceport like Avalon catered to all races and types, sailors between the black in this sector of worlds. It was perfect to lose oneself, any would-be seekers afflicted by the sheer diversity of local Xeno, off world local travelers and of course, those passing through like him. It wasn't the first time he found himself here, one of many in the crowd for once and a lot had changed since last time. A portal of the sort that the Grand Hotel utilized was being constructed, a similar apparatus forming in low orbit for vessels. The local color around the docks seemed to have expanded, honest sailors and pirates rubbing shoulders as captains took on crewmembers. What interested him most of all however, was the conversation being held a few tables away as voices discussed a deal over Sabbacc.
On pretense of looking for service at the bar, the man in black listened carefully.
"-And it's just burning a hole in my pocket. So what say ye? Prime crystals, untamed and full of the good stuff."
"I don't know. Since Thanos went down, the Rat has been cracking down on things like this. I'm not made of bribe money."
The bar keep, a tentacled figure asked politely in Elemental if he was going to order and the man opted for an ale in turn. Putting the mug to his lips, he strained for the next part.
"-It's settled then. Fifty-forty to recoup your losses and I, will be free to sail off once more. It's a deal. Anything else?"
"Oh, one thing comes to mind."
There was something about that voice and he paused, trying to place where he heard it before. The click of weaponry being primed had him glance over his shoulder as the Sabbacc game seemed to have ended. It's players rising up and pointing an array of gun barrels his way. Moonlighting bounty hunters, petty criminals, pirates and dealers in darkness, the world's and races may change. Some things stayed the same.
Their target drained his mug. With a sigh, the former Executor, Torch Operative and member of the House of M. shook his head as he spoke to himself.
"It must be a Saturday." Lucifer tossed the mug idly in his hand as he looked at the other patrons leaving quickly.
"I could never get the hang of Saturdays."
And then there was no more time.
