Private Laboratory Work

“The Sith who attempted to make you their student beforehand obviously didn’t do a good job.” Vanessa replied. “And I have done my best to work around the limitations they unfortunately were responsible for searing into your being. Given you have the capability to use the Force, what would you say if I took you in as, shall we say, an unofficial student? I can’t submit you to the Sith Academy - the moment they find out your relationship to Alexandra, certain more sadistic Sith will attempt to use you to lure her here, and I will inevitably get accused of something. However, there is nothing officially stopping me from teaching you what I know.” She replied.

“You will need to take on another name, though.”

"I think he did a grand job in causing the fear to come out of me." Nicole spoke in a rather annoyed tone of voice. "I don't quite know if I want to be trained by you. I mean, I already have one master who trains me." Her heart did skip a beat at the mentioning of the Sith Academy. "Fuck that. I don't want to go anywhere -near- that hellhole of a place. What would you even want to teach me anyway? Why would you want to teach me?"

And with an even further annoyed tone. "And why do I need to change my name. Again?!"

"Oh?" He asked. "And who would that master be?" She inquired. She hoped it wasn't a Jedi, as that would be complicating things. "I would obviously want to teach you Sithy Dark Side stuff. Might as well teach you since I don't exactly have that much in the way of students running around the galaxy to carry on what I'm working on after I end up dying." She considered things. "Well... you're a Feanor." Vanessa answered. "Do you want to get hauled off and interrogated?"

It was a fair point.

 

[Neyana]

"His name is Solan Charr. Though I haven't been around him lately to learn more. I already know a few Dark sided things, and thats really enough for me." Sarah turns back around to face the door, going to move a hand over to open it, though stops at the mentioning of her last name. "I really don't understand why my last name has anything to do with this. I barely have contact with Alex as is." That might also be true.

[Onrai]

"Solan Charr... I haven't heard that name in some time." He said. "And when was the last time Mr. Charr got in touch with you regarding, well... anything? A long while, I take it. Perhaps it would be better suited for someone who is also providing you with the money to get by to teach you." Vanessa replied, thinking over the possibilities. "You have to understand - while you may think people don't have long memories, I can guarantee you that Emperor Zambrano does. He more than gladly will seize you if he gets the chance and will use you as bait to lure Alexandra to him. Trust someone who knows him inside and out."

At least, she hoped she did.

"I'm not going to answer that, and Its still rather my decision to be taunt by you or not." Her voice lowers, but just a tad. She is still rather aggravated about this entire ordeal. Her resolve weakens a bit at the threat that Vanessa states. Is, is this some-sort of blackmail? "But He must know that I do not really know anything about my sister. Nor do I keep in contact with her. B-But if changing my name might h-help out and keep me away from Him. I, I suppose I'll do so." A rough sigh. "Again..." From her tone this time, she does not enjoy that idea either.

[member="Vanessa Vantai"]

 

[Onrai]

"It will." She said, smiling. "I'm not attempting to blackmail you. That I assure you. Bug I do want to make sure you understand that the Sith would value using you as a hostage or a bargaining tool." She replied, looking at the small Feanor. "Your usefulness to me would be at an end if they were to take you from me. Besides, your fragility is adorable. The stuttering is too. I'm sorry." She said, thinking to herself.

So cute.

[Neyana]

"Uh huh." She is not amused by what her boss is stating. In fact, it only makes her turn back around to facing that door to open it up. "Fine. Fine. Whatever. Just.. Just send me a list of names to pick from, I, I'd rather not be used as some ones bargaining chip." Though, she does glance at Vanessa. "Including yours." And with that, she takes her first steps outside of the lab wanting to spend the rest of her day probably alone. Hopefully. "Just, Just great." She mumbles to herself.

"Sure thing." She would reply, as her assistant would end up leaving. Vanessa would send her a list of names - they all had 'Nicole' or 'Sarah' at the beginning. Two of note were Sarah Vantai and Sarah Mist. Why these names would stand out was rather unclear, but the list was truly large and diverse. The only name that seemed to not be there was Feanor. Hopefully, Vanessa thought, there would be at least one name that would appeal to her employee.

There had to be, right?

 

[Neyana]

Throughout her day, Nicole wanders around her assigned room thinking about how to spend her day. She could lay down, read a book, meditate. Then her tablet beeped and she looks at the list her employer sent her. And Frowned at it. She replies with one simple message. "A few of these names stick out, and I'll give them some thought, but re-using the name I was given while enslaved by the Sith, and using your last name is off the table." She then roughly tosses the tablet onto her bed, and sits down staring a her hands.

"Let me know over the next few days." Vanessa would reply. In the meantime, she would have notified one of her subordinates, a certain Tekkio , that she was wanting him to meet a new associate of hers. Given the fact that Tekkio was under her command, he didn't have much in the way of options, but Vanessa was quite sure the two of them would get along well with one another. After all, if she could appreciate Tekkio, she was sure Sarah would too.

One would hope, anyways.

A troop transport dramatically shot off Vanessa's flag ship, heading for the planet below. The ship's design was nothing special, a normal troop transport from the sith empire. On it was one of the NSFR's officers. And accompanying him was two pilots and a single soldier. It was rather bright inside the transport, there was no reason to have it dim light.

The ship entered into the atmosphere and slowed down as it leveled out and fell down. Air pushed against ground as it gradually slowed into a landing. The rear doors opened and the boarding ramp lowered, revealing a officer's uniform. Only the officer wearing it was short, about half a meter tall. The officer was a Kushiban, red in color. Unlike other officers of the empire, he broke from the uniform's boots and gloves, favoring having his hand-paws available. A long tail protruded from the back of the uniform.

Amber eyes scanned the surrounding before walking out. Behind him, following him was a single sith trooper to act more as a caution than an escort. Most troopers would not see the small officer, so the single sith patrol would act as a close guard, making sure no one stepped on him. This meant following him closely. At first the guard would accidentally step on him as well. But overtime got used to the small officer's movements so that the patrol could remain fairly close without getting in the way.

Tekkio, the sith officer, made his way to where Vanessa had asked him to go. The only thing on his belt was a small pistol, accustomed to his size.

Well, Nicole couldn't pick a name that she really enjoys. Her current one is just... Hers. She cannot give up such a name that easily. Not as easy as she gave up the name the Sith gave her. Sighing, she locks her door, cuts off the communications into her room, and heads over to sit back down on her bed and calmly meditates. She needs to clear her head and properly decide on what to do. At peace. With no interruptions. Of course, no one can have what they want all the time now can they?

Tekkio's arrival would soon cheer Vanessa up. The Sith Lord would provide her officer with all the information she had gleaned on Nicole, including her relationship with the Jedi Alexandra Feanor. She would also briefly elaborate on her past history with the Feanors, including her prior killing of Alexandra that was completely unintended. They would wait patiently together, talking and preparing for Nicole's return to provide her name.

This would be interesting.

 

[Tekkio]

Tekkio flicked his ears, listen to what Vanessa had to say. Though he did not understand most of it, he did his best to at least pay attention well enough to put the pieces together. He wasn't even sure why he was called to this planet. Perhaps she needed help. Then as if someone smack his head, he remembered that Vanessa sometimes just liked having him around. His formal demeanor relaxed upon this realization and he let his ears droop a bit and allowed his tail to sway freely. After all was said to him, he looked around curiously. More curious about the planet than anything.

 

[Neyana]

How long was she in this room deep in her trance? Days? Weeks? Just a few hours? Well. She doesn't really know. During her trance, she could not find the answers she was searching for, and those eyes of hers soon open back up. She blinks several times and moves over to get off the bed, and turns back on communications to her room. the door is unlocked, and Nicole speaks through the little communication spot. Just a few simple words.

"I need food and water."

Tekkio Onrai

 

[Onrai]

Food and water would soon arrive on a droid, which carried it on a serving tray. Vanessa would soon follow after the droid, with Tekkio looking over her shoulder. "So, have you made any progress in determining a name for yourself?" She asked, curious as to whether anything had actually come of the contemplative period. She looked down and gave a look to Tekkio, an indication that he was to introduce himself.

"This is Tekkio, one of my lieutenants. A very intelligent officer, if I do say so myself."

Neyana

 

[Tekkio]

Tekkio had his hands behind his back as he looked up at Sarah. His ears was perked up. Tekkio looked at Vannessa as she introduced him. His tail flicked at the mention of one of her lieutenants. He turned back to Sarah and took a step forward. "Nicole, was it?" He said in greeting, then he reached a handpaw up to shake her hand, leaning upward and tried his best to stand taller so she would not have to bend down far.

 

[Neyana]

As soon as the food arrived, Nicole moves to take it and sits down on her bed. Once she turns around to look up at the droid, she found Vanessa and this.. odd... red.. person? Can she even call it a person? Shrugging, she continues eating her food and does not speak until its all gone. She gives them a simple answer.

"No."

Though her gaze went back to the much smaller one, and simply stares down at it. "An... Intelligence officer... Then again, I'm a lab assistant... so I guess this is fine..." A sigh escapes her lips. A hand moves over to go to shake the much smaller being infront of her.

Tekkio Onrai

 

[Tekkio]

Tekkio's grip on her hand was tight... To him anyway. She could feel his claws lightly grip her. "Actually, I am a Recon trooper for the Empire's Special Forces. Trained in covert operations inside enemy controlled points." He said. There was a certain pride he had about his training. He let go of her hand with his, dropping his arm to his belt. "What about you?" He asked, looking up at her.
