You're not even looking as the swing connects, ending your problems with him.
There is a loud noise and the ship lurches slightly as the pirate's main vessel disengages from the liner- looks like the mothership is bailing out. With their leader dead, their escape route gone, three Jedi in the room and two more (BB and Gundy) just coming to the door now, the others are no longer interested in fighting; bit by bit they throw down their weapons.
Um, now, who is here that was also in game one... a-ha!
Gundy and Lance, while securing the prisoners you soon notice something rather surprising. You both recognise the dead leader, though only vaguely. You spend a little time trying to work out where, and then it comes to you- when you were stuck on the volcano at Jaglon Beta, he was the guy directing the massive amounts of firepower at you.
These are Red Lance pirates! And you were SURE they had been wiped out in that battle! Pelloran must have survived....
The pirates seem to know very little, having been under the direction of the escaping Captain of their vessel and the now-dead leader. But they were expecting to rendezvous with a slaver ship that never made it.
This is obscene; a slaver operation this deep into the Galaxy. The risk was ludicrous, and while a band of Jedi wondering past may have been even less lucky than they deserve, it could so easily have been any number of military vessels that could have picked up that distress call.
Gundy, out of the corner of your eye you spot one of the 'dead' pirates trying to raise his weapon unseen. As you are re-igniting your sabre in reaction, a blaster shot flies across the room and blasts the man down.
The shooter is standing in the doorway; a man in slightly tattered brown and white clothing, with worn, short curly hair and a scar across his left eye. And one arm which looks slightly odd.
Balek holsters his gun and looks around him.
"You've secured the bridge," he says, matter-of-factly
