Mist

Mara stared through the porthole silently, tears streaming down her face. Although her home planet was long gone fron sight, the image of its pieces were fresh in her minds. Her face was pale, making her dark red hair stand out even more. Her emeralr eyes searched through space hopelessly, trying to fool herself that Marion was still a planet, that everything was okay. But it wasn't. Lalaith walked into her room and sat down next to her. "I'm sorry." He whispered.

Anima nodded as the dorr opened again. Faye smiled and with a wave of a gun, she was out of the building, singing to herself. When Faye left the building, she stopped humming and went around to the front of the building, which was a famous night club in the Venus barstrip. She sat down and ordered a a martini and waited. [i] I may hate your guts[/i], Faye thought, [i] but you haven't answered all of Spike's questions. Until then, you're not going anywhere.[/i]

"Yeah." Mara replied simply, taking a sip of her drink. The man turned his head and nodded in Kain's direction. "From what I hear," the man whispered, "That's your guy." "Who, Kain?" Mara asked, setting down her glass. "No! The guy next to him." "Oh." "So, know anything else?" "Not really." "Okay, thanks." Mara walked and sat beside Kain, smiling and taking another gulp of her drink. "I need to talk to you." she whispered, leaning towards his ear. Kain nodded, turning his attention back to the uneasy man. "[i]Now.[/i]" Mara said firmly.

Mara whiped her eyes and stood up silently. Her eyes were filled with rage, her clenched fists pale. She gently put a hand on her head and her smile disappeared. "I think I'm going to be alone right now." she mumbled, walking off. Lalaith had turned to follow her, but Mace Windu had held him back. "She needs to be alone, young padwa." He said, a curious glint lingering in his eye. Lalaith nodded and sat down, staring at his hands. "So many lives..." he muttered.

Anima rolled her eyes. "What a comfort." She whispered, her voice laced with sarcasm. The iron door swung open to reveal a long corridor, yet again of steel. They walked down the hallway, both of the women's heels clicking on the floor...

OOC: Don't worry 'bout it, Boba. Throw any kind of storyline at me, most times I can deal with it.

OOC: Nice post, Boba. By the way, Schraten, if that's how Boba is going to take the plot, find a way to devise around it. You're smart, you can do it! ^ ^ I promise. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Mara's eyes narrowed as she started to speak. "You're a bounty hunter, and I have told you that I do no trust your kind. Why would you ask?" Boba's eyes intensified. "Like I said, what the Empire is doing is wrong." He replied simply, with a wave of his hand. "I cannot let you join." Mara said resoulutely, turning around and walking away. Lalaith watched her turn the corner, and his lingering gaze fell on Boba. "I will talk to her." Lalaith whispered, running after the Senator. Boba smiled. "Thank you." he mumbled, turning around and walking slowly away...

"Why are you here and how did you find me anyway?" Mara asked, gazing at Lalaith curiously.

"I agree," Faye said, not turning around, "You're not even [i] half[/i] that much." Anima made a face behing her back. "Look," Faye said, breaking the silence two minutes later, " I don't know who this guy is, but he keeps saying something about a 'reunion'. So be careful of this guy, alright?" Anima smiled. "You actually care about me?" She asked innnocently. Faye rolled her eyes. "No, I just don't want Spike to be dazed if that man was to kill you." Anima face became plated steel. "You got feelings for my son?" Faye chuckled. "Don't you wish?" Faye replied, as she landed her ship.

OOC: I'm sorry, but I don't remember what you're talking about. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mara walked quietly to the docks, a black robe shrouding her apperance. It was a misty morning, dark and moist air stuffed itself up her nostrils. "Ugh, why did I have to go on a morning like this?" Mara said, pulling her robe tighter. She came inside and nodded at the guards, who knew she was coming. She walked to port thirty-four as a chrome ship landed...

Mara smiled an walked off, taking a seat next to a blonde-headed man. "So, you a regular?" Mara asked, ordering a martini. The man smiled. "Depends on what you'll give for the information." The man replied, looking her up and down. Mara shot him a glare and took a sip of her drink. "Don't think about it, bud. I'm a friend of the lone wolf." she said simply. The man shivered. "Oh! Sorry 'bout that. I didn't mean any harm. Hone-" "Shut up," Mara said, setting her glass down," and give me information." "On who?" the man asked curiously. "A guy named Leon." She whispered, staring into her glass. The man laughed. "You after him, too?" he asked, shooting her a beleagured glance.

"Bail Organa in trouble?" Mara asked curiously, pulling out a hair brush, "Mother, you can't be serious." Queen Amnell nodded, her face serious. "I'm afraid so. He will be arriving tommorw at the docks. He has personally asked for you to assist him to the emanassy." She said, sitting down precariously. Mara nodded. "Yes," Mara replied, "I will. He was always like a brother to me when he'd visit in the summer. What time will he be arriving?" Queen Amnell shook her head. "I'm not quite sure. I think that he meant he would be around in the morning."

"Hmm. Seems like I found myself a bounty." Mara said quietly, taking one last puff on her cigarette before smothering it in the ashtray. She walked through the club, humming quietly to the tune playing. Her flipped her dark red hair back, her emerald eyes cold and dark. She slung her short leather jacket over her shoulder and walked out of the bar. Mara walked through an allyway, lost in her thoughts. The forbidding sound of dripping water rang in her ears, echoing all around her. [i] Embezzelment, huh? This shouldn't be too hard.[/i] Mara jumped quietly onto the dock and inconspicouiously slipped into her Quicksilver. She flipped a few switches and smiled as it lifted slowly into the air, humming a tune of the machine. "To Jupiter, it is." She muttered to herself.

OOC: Well, I have something planned, and I oddly feel that I am the cause for everyone's blank...I think it's contagious, so I might as well administer a cure. : D ----------------------------------------- As the hologram popped up, Mara smiled and signaled for Lalaith and Siren to follow her. As the Senator disappeared around the corner, more guards came behind and in front of her to escort her to the Embassy. Boba laughed and focused on the hologram: [i] Boba Fett, I appreciate all that you have done. And for another 10,000 credits, I will appreciate you for your next assignment. As you probably know,Senator Amidala and Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kanobi have escaped from Palpatine's clutches. I want you and your partner to find them,[b]quietly[/b] and [b]secretly[/b] bring them to the Embassy, and don't make a scene. When you find them, buy them new clothing attire and make sure they are [b]not[/b] recognized. I want you to tell the guards at the front you are on offcial Royal buisness. Bring them to the fourth board room on the second floor. The guards will give you directions. I will meet you there. Have them in a week. [/i]

Faye sighed when Anima woke up. "So, where are we going?" Anima asked cooly. Faye smiled teasingly and said nothing. "Tell me, Valentine." "Shut up, woman, and hold your horses. You'll find out soon."

OOC: Sorry, guys, my internet connection zapped on me last night. I don't really think there is much for me to say, so I'll let you guys take it for a while...

OOC: Boba, Lalaith didn't exactly give in anyway, but that doesn't matter... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [i]Boba Fett, I have your instructions. I want you to be on dock thirty-seven in three hours. Bring your friend. I will come out...but I'm not telling you when. I don't trust bounty hunters. I hope that you saw the "recent" news...so I won't have to explain my reason. After this assignment, I will no longer need your services, so if you would kindly tell me where/how to make the payoff, it would be appreciated.[/i]

[SIZE=1][COLOR=darkred] Name: Mara Heartlock Age: 20 Height: 5'4 Race: Elf Class: Time Mage Weapons : A thin willow wand Armour/Clothes: Light, off-white robe that has golden lining. Underneath, an elaborate short, silver dress is cut down to the knees. Description: Mara has long raven hair and is very quiet. Her emerald eyes are very startling and cryptic, almost on the point of frighting. She is very thin, and somewhat flexible. Mara does not know much about her past, which makes her become very uncertain about her future. Bio/History: Mara was raised by her "father", a human, in the forest until she was nine-years-old. He was not really her father, but who had been taking care of her ever since she could remember. Her mother, an elf, had died at a very young age and Mara never known her well. Mara does not remember much about this period, except that in the middle of the night, her father told her to run. Mara arrived at the home of the elves, taking up residence in the same forest. They took her in and taught her the essence of being a time mage. She excelled and by age twenty, she left the elves to face the world... [/SIZE][/COLOR]

OOC: I will. If you didn't notice, Schratn, we in a ship already, well on it's way to Marion. You might want to edit that post

That's the number one reason why I don't like bootlegs either. But downloads are okay with me...

OOC: Sorry, Boba, but I really can't do much until Duo or Schraten get on. Guys are [b] so [/b] lazy...'cept you! :D

[i] Boba Fett, You have my deepest regards. I'm afarid there has been a change of plan. Tell the Queen to prolong the transport of the army until my arrival in Marion tommorow. I would like to meet you, so be at the official docking base of Marion at the time I am sending to the Slave 1, along with further instructions. Please, stay at the Emabassy of Marion and make yourself comfortable. My planet is not partial to bounty hunters, so whatever you do, say it is under the authorization of Senator Heartlock or Princess Leana. [/i]

::Falls on top of Angelus:: Spike...on a screen bigger than my t.v...too bad we're not allowed to bring cameras... :D

"Goodie! Midora, get your as* over here! We're going! " Midora stuck her tongue out at Mara as she came into the room. "Hold on! Geeze, don't have to get your pantie in a knot." "Unlike little girls," Mara said, a finger held up in the air with her eyes closed," I do not wear panites. Thongs are the only thing that touches this woman's...nevermind." Kain gagged. "You know what, Mara?" Kain asked mischeiviously. "What?" Mara asked in a sweet tone. "I was innocent until I got an image of that." "Innocent my as*."

Faye puffed nervously on a cigarette as she walked down the empty allyway. A man was flipping a coin at the end of it, ready to offer her a deal. She leaned on the wall next to him and held her gun into his right side. "Look," she said quietly, " I want you to do this quick. I got other people to take care of." "Really?" "Really." "I want you to get an assassain by the name of Anima." Faye laughed hoarsely. "Can do." she said merrily. The man smiled and handed her a briefcase. "It's all there. 10,000 woolongs as promised. I want her brought to me...alive. We have some catching up to do." Faye smiled as the man walked away. "And Faye?" the man said abruptly, spinning around to face her. "Hmm?" "[b]Alive[/b]." "Like I would do anything otherwise?" Faye asked innocently, throwing in a wink as she turned and started walking away.
