Well, there's no way to hide or disguise THIS. Can I use Perception to see what is outside? Gonan tries to see who might be there by hearing or observing through windows, cracks, or listen for other means. He hears nothing. {{0 Succ / 0 Adv on a Perception check}}

HIs first urge is to burst outside and grab the person, but IT COULD BE the authorities coming to investigate!!! He'll wait to see if there is an announcement or whether the person/persons try to enter. {{1 Succ / 1 Adv on a Cool check}}

About ten seconds pass and the knocking repeats more urgently.

Gonan will do his best to disguise his alien, accented voice and gruffly mumble through the door, "WHO IS IT??? The sign says we're closed!"
Spoiler:
This is assuming AVG difficulty and is probably only necessary if someone KNOWS the people here and would suspect a different voice. I figured I'd roll and let the GM adjust difficulty, or whatever.

Gonan's first instinct is to jump this guy, but that didnt go too well just now. This may be one of the RARE times when violence isnt the answer. ;)

Gonan will pick up some tools, a utility tool belt, and a heavy, blunt item to use as a potential weapon. He'll try to play the part.

Turning to the injured man he says, "Listen buddy, dont make a sound, or give me away, or I'll END YOU!!! Understand? Nobody will blame you for anything after the fight you've put up."

The injured man nods in agreement his head barely moving under what appears to be considerable effort.

Gonan will play the part of the mechanic. Tool belt, big wrench, and some chain, if there is some. He goes to the back door. When he hears the bike pull up and turn off, he'll step outside, cross his arms, and wait for the man to approach him. He'll pretend to do business.

There IS a chance the man may try to make a run for it. Hence, waiting until the bike stops running. Gonan will be ready if the man tries to run.

Gonan walks towards the back door and listens. He looks out from a slightly ajar door for sign of the man. (A tough one, but 3 Succ vs 2 Failures!)

The wait is not long before a man drives up covered in bikers protective gear on a speeder bike that appears to match the photo included with the bounty listing

Gonan will wait for a few seconds. Wait for the guy to get off the bike and come over. He'll maintain crossed arms and a wrench in one hand. "Aren't you LATE?" he'll say gruffly.

I ain't the post office. There had been a lot of heat since you guys had me lift this bike. Too much if you ask me for a simple speeder.

"You're very brave." say Gonan, finding a bit of respect for this man. "You ready for another job?"

"Sure thing, Nessle. Right this way." Gonan will say as he motions to the back door of the shop. Knowing the sight inside the shop and not having this guy's credits, Gonan knows there's going to be trouble. As he motions towards the door with one arm holding the wrench, he'll reach into his pocket with his other hand for the vibroknuckles.

At THIS moment, the guy may-or-may-not be Nessle. Gonan intentionally used the name of the man associated with the bike bounty to see the reaction. If all goes well, he'll hit him from behind.

The individual on the bike heads towards the garage moving inside and calling out for whom you assume is the shop owner asking why the idiot newbie was sent out to meet him.

I will strike him from behind. Surely he will see the 'mess'. AVG difficulty? Roll initiative? Surprise round.

Gonan seizes the opportunity to waylay this guy. Striking from behind isn't beneath the Quaran. The man was weak for turning his back on someone he had no reason to trust!

He takes his time and 'aims' his blow precisely. Nessle's going to have a really bad day!

Searching the body. Obvious stuff, yes (credits, stims, weapons, etc...). Anything hidden? No.

Gonan gathers the bounty and drives the bike back to guild headquarters. Walkinging cockily inside and informing the desk that he has a bounty for grandfather. The desk jockey give him a mildly annoyed look then pressed a button opening up a large door to the back room. An older gentleman can be seen sitting in a throne like chair down at the end of a red carpet. Several others seem to have been talking to him, but turn to face the door staring at Gonan.

Gonan steps into the room. The Grandfather is aptly named, though not perceived as old or weak in any way. He has compiled a significant criminal organization here on Druckenwell, a position he has solidified in his later years. Estimated to be approximately 60-70 years old, he is not afraid to take in the youngest of talents.

He has thick, wavy gray hair with a short mustache and beard. His light tan skin is slightly weathered and recent worries has accentuated the worry lines. The Red Fury Brotherhood has been making noise about a takeover of the Druckenwell underworld, a move The Grandfather is not pleased with.

Gonan steps forward and bows his head briefly in a short nod. He extends his hands outward as a sign of peace. "Greetings Grandfather. I, Gonan, have brought in a bounty to honor you with. It is a speeder bike with a bounty from Gorga the Hutt."
