Summary:

Chirrut has received a message from Malbus that the contract he was hired for has been fulfilled and the Sith Lord finds that he’s looking forward to seeing the man for more reasons that just paying him for a successfully completed job. But both bounty hunter and Sith Lord carries secrets of their own, leading to an unexpected turn of events. And the Dark Side may have ideas of its own for their future.

Excerpt:

The attack comes out of nowhere and if not for the warning the Force screams at Chirrut he knows that it might have succeeded against him. Whatever else can be said about their attackers they are stealthy.

They have exited the bar and Chirrut are leading them down the street in search of a hovertaxi when the assailants strike.  

Chirrut feels the danger flash through the Force and ducks. An object whistles through the air in the space where his heads was only a moment before. Beside him Malbus swears under his breath, but Chirrut pays it no heed. The bounty hunter will stand or fall on his own, and Chirrut has his own foes to deal with.

He feels them in the Force, four of them, alien all and bent on violence, the darkness churning around their forms, calling to him. But no one knows the Dark side like the Sith and had he been willing to reveal himself for what he was Chirrut knows he could have dealt with them in a matter of moments.

But he is here incognito and he wishes to keep it that way, he does not wish other of the Dark Lords to pry into his business here, least of all Kuasa and Aetas. They will learn soon enough.

So he resorts to more mundane methods of destruction.
