(Following Mandalore: Capital of the Mando'ade. PM before joining.)
The Mandalore Pride landed in Anchorhead. It was the best spaceport to start from, Czerka would buy bounties and the Hunting Club would buy things from Jado and Delmon's preys. Jado exited the Pride.
-"There we are. My last hunt was a long time ago, especially Krayt Dragon hunts!"
He prepared his weapons and kept the mines strapped to his back.
-"We'll have to find a Krayt cavern, there, we can mine the entrance and weaken the beast before we take him head-on!"
Jado walked toward the city's exit, toward the Dune Sea.
-"This is gonna be fun!"

" I have to agree with you vode. This is going to be an exciting time indeed." Delmon said as he tapped the pommel of his sword. He didnt use mines the last time he had a bout with a krayt, but it sounded alot easier from what he had to do. Hiding inside a dead bantha wasnt the most pleasent experience in the galaxy. " We should aquire a speeder so we can get out into the deep desert quicky. last time I was here thats where I found the majority of the krayt caves."

Jado nodded and approached a Speeder renting shop. He took a fast and durable model and drove to the desert with Delmon. After half and hour, they were in the Deep Desert.
-"There should be caves near here. I already see a few rock formations."
Effectively, They saw caves around. Big caves, big enough to contain the Tattooine reptilian. Jado stopped the speeder and verified his equipment once again.

As the they approached the caves, Delmon looked over to Jado. " So do you want to be the bait or should I?" he said with a laugh. They could probably aquire a bantha or some other type of pack animal to bring out the krayt, but going through all the trouble to get one seemed hardly worth it. As the speeder came to a stop, Delmon got out and did several stretches to try and loosen himself up just in case.

Jado cracked his neck and stretched. His muscles needed to be ready, this would not be a Womprat infestation cleaning.
-"I will go place the mines, I can be the bait."
He made sure his rifle was loaded and advanced slowly toward the cave to place the mines at the entrance. Heheard a strange, loud snoring. The Mandalorian saw the big lizard sleeping in the cave.
-"Boy, that's a big piece....", he whispered to himself. He turned toward Delmon.
-"I think we have our Great Dragon. I hope you're ready!"
Jado carefully set the mines. With it size, it was impossible that the dragon could not touch the explosive mines. Jado started yelling at the dragon, shooting with his assault rifle.
-"Wake up, scale-face! Want some Mandalorian meat?"
The Krayt Dragon eventually woke up and roared at the daring Mandalorian. He advanced toward Jado, who put some distance between him and the cave entrance.
-"Bring it on!"
The Dragon stepped on the mines and some scales flew from the beast's skin. The Krayt roared in pain and rage and continued advancing toward Jado. The private fired at the beast.
-"Go, Delmon! Let's bring that thing down!!!"

While Jado set up the mines, Delmon had began a climb to the top of the cave mouth. When he reached the top, Jado had already set up the mines and had started shooting and yelling at the sleping krayt. He watched as it lumbered out and felt the explosions through the rock. The size of the charging krayt made its movements seem slower then they actually where, after all this particular type of dragon hunted the great sarlaccs of the desert. When he heard Jado yell, he jumped off his perch and landed on the back of the beast. The size of it didnt surprise him as much as he thought it would, he had done extensive research on it before his previous hunt. He started running towards it head. " Jado, Im on the creatures back, if you can keep it busy and dont get yourself killed, I might be able to get to its head and cuase some damage."

Jado kept firing while keeping some distance. That beast would swallow him whole, armor included if it had a chance to do so.
-"Don't worry, that thing will be down before it can even take a swipe at me!"
The Mandalorian kept firing at the Krayt's head. A shot burnt the monster's left eye, making it roar and move his head in pain.
-"Careful not to fall off, kiddo!"
Jado laughed. It was a risky hunt but he had great fun.

" Dont worry about me" Delmon said as he grabbed onto a spike on the monsters back as it buked. " Theres enough room up here, that if I where to fall down I still wouldnt fall off the damned thing."
As he ran he unsheathed his sword and hacked at the spines and other peices of the krayt, he got to the head with a trail of blood behind him. When he finally reached the head he saw that its eye was bleeding heavily. Grabbing onto one of its horns, he started hacking at the top of its head, its thick skull keeping his vibro sword at bay. It roared and swung its head wildly as it tried to rid itself of its burden. Delmon was able to hold on though, and continued his assault on its head.

Jado stopped firing and unsheated his vibrosword.
-"Time to get serious!"
He rushed toward the monster and started slashing at it's face, ducking under the Krayt's furious snaps. He then went to one of the beast's legs and hacked at it. He barely avoided being crushed a few times.
-"That thing's going down soon!!!"
He planted his sword in the Krayt Dragon's front left leg, letting the vibrating sword cut it's way through.

Delmon almost fell off the krayt's head when it flinched fom jado's blow to its leg. When he quickly grabbed at something to keep himself from falling to his death, he swung wildly with his sword and sliced clean through the damaged part of the skull he had been working at. The beast roared in pain and rage from both wounds and started flailing wildly, throwing Delmon off and slamming him into the sand below. He was barely able to roll out from under one of its feet as he thrashed. As the bleeding intensified, its thrashing slowed and it started to fatigue.
" Come on! Lets finish while its weakened from blood loss!" He said as he pulled out his mandalorian ripper as his main sword was still lodged in the ceatures skull. he fied at it as he ran.

The monster was debating, in rage and pain. It's jaw sent Jado rolling in the sand.
-"Ungh! This is the best that thing can do??!!"
He rushed again with his vibrosword, slashing at the head whenever he could. The beast's attacks went slower and slower. It was nearly dead. Jado gripped one of the Krayt's horn and planted his sword in the monster's neck. The beast vomited blood, his roarings going into silence.

Delmon stopped running as the krayt slowed its movements, walking at an even pace as he breathing grew haggered. He knew it was pretty much dead, but he decided to point and fire a couple shots into its head for good measure. Soon after he ripped his sword from the creatures skull and cleaned it with a cloth that he uses for that purpose.
" So, you want the pear? I already a couple. So you can have it if you really want it." He said as he walked over and began cutting out one of the creatures many teeth. " Gonna make a nice blade outta you" he said to it as he wiped remaining blood and tissue off of it.

Jado advanced toward the corpse, retrieving his sword.
-"The drink will be good after this!"
He carved the Krayt's belly, searching for the Krayt pearls. He found three of them.
-"That will make a nice decoration! You sure you don't want to keep some?"
He cut a few horns to put on his house's walls. A new trophiy from another successful hunt.

" No its fine, I still have several from my last hunt. I really dont know what to do with them other than decoration, so I dont want alot." Delmon said as he cut several more fangs out of the Krayts skull.
" We should hurry and get what we want before the stench draws more beasts. Id rather not fight several at a time."

-"You're right."
Jado cut a piece of skin to put on his home's wall. Once he had all he wanted, he advanced toward the speeder.
-"We can go, now. Got all I was interested in."
