"Start up costs you have to cover on your own, you can always take a credit from planetary bank here and pay it off over time. Do good enough job and I'll see a grant coming your way to help with that. Other than that, you'll be getting empty space, furniture, proper storage, bar taps and all of that, it will be on your own to look for and arrange. We have tools available to help you, of course, but that does not mean you will not have to put some work into it. At least once you will be done it will feel more homely to you."

The machine would shrug,

"Lease will be based on percentage of the income you get from the place to make sure you will always be able to afford it, and all of it will go towards Outpost's maintenance and improvements. As to Sio, well let us say she was never one to be waiting around for initial charge to pass, she would rather lead it even if it meant loosing a limb or two. Back then they called me The Siege Tower of Pyre, I took things slower and put myself on the front, like her, but I preferred taking hits to the chest to protect the soldiers behind me, minimized casualties like that."

He nodded before quipping,

"And let this be the last time we discuss which park you are currently swinging in."


At her last question he would look back to Rekha, replying with,

"Whenever you are ready, transports to Bespin leave regularly and I am not going to hold your hand through this. Today, tomorrow, next week, whenever you feel ready to take to Frontiers. But remember, if you show up too late, I will just give the place to someone else."

He nodded again, watching her warily, she seemed ready to take off so the droid wasn't too worried about her wasting time on Abregado too much.

[SIZE=12pt]Start up costs were bad, “If you can find a slicer maybe they can free up my credits from the Coruscant bank” Yes she’d rather not take a loan from a bank, she hated having to pay the money mongers, if there was a way not to, she’d find it.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]He was right, if she did it all it would feel more like her, more like her place and not the half charity that it felt like.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]Interesting the things he spoke of about battle, she did not know many people like that let alone droids. She nodded keeping it in mind.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12pt]She laughed, “aww but I love playing in parks” Her green eyes for once showed a bit more like herself and not the waif she felt she was.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]When would she be ready, she looked into the diner to see if she could see [member="Dekkan Fray"], he was doing that thing he did she felt for sure he was watching, waiting. She looked back to [member="HK-36"] . “Next week is good, I” She looked up to the sky and then back, “need to make sure I leave here on the right foot”[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]And Dekkan was important to her. More than she would ever admit to anyone except him.[/SIZE]


[SIZE=12pt]“I’ll take this deal, and meet with your alternative life style friends” leaving the ball park out of it, she held out her hand, “Deal”[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]With all the responsibility and thoughts of owing the galaxy she was going to do this, and make it work.[/SIZE]

"Deal it is."

The droid would grip her hand in a handshake to seal their agreement,

"Me and Sio will meet you in a week's time on Bespin, you will have few days to set beginning of your shop then, in mean time I will ask Protectorate for a slicer with whom you could work to get your money back."

He would nod,

"I will let you know when I will find one, until then if you will need to get a hold of me, either call the Observer's Seat in Capital City or have Dekkan contact me directly on secured line."

 

[Rekha Kaarde]

Rekha nodded, "I look forward to it" And it would be an internal torture until she could feel once again that she was on her own two feet, living under her terms.

"I'll see you and Sio in a week on Bespin" Bespin, it had been sometime since she had been there, maybe they forgot about her little disagreement with security back then...cause it was a very long time ago.
