Lending a hand to a friend/enemy in need

[Verd Skirata]

"Sorry, I could have sworn you just used the words purchase, decoy and slave in the same sentence." He looked her way incredulously. He was fiercely against slavery, in this case mainly because the slave would most likely end up killed. "I have a better Idea, look at archangel's product line, and tell me there isn't something there that wouldn't suit this need better, and have a better Use once this whole thing blows over." Verd said turning his attention back to piloting the taxi. He weaved in and out of traffic, expertly taking many tight turns and heading down narrow alleyways every now and then to avoid confrontation or being tracked. They were almost there, when he saw a starship flying overhead. It wasn't a civilian model craft either, and it looked heavily armed. at this, he slowed down and followed regulations for taxi driving, hoping they had been lost in the endless stream of airspeeders. He pointed the ship out to [member="Tmoxin Temi"], so she would notice it for herself. He just hoped the rest of the trip to the ship was that uneventful or less.

Tmoxin pulled up the Archangel holosite and reviewed their offerings. "While I like the idea, these types of HRDs are too indispensable, not to mention expensive."

As her Mandalorian companion was distracted by the heavy Coruscant traffic, the Hapan officer pretended to doze off in the backseat still curled up against one of the droids, which wasn't very comfortable to say the least. Tmoxin was still spinning the notion in her head of having an actual slave as her decoy for the bounty. She quietly tapped on her datapad, pulling up the information of someone she would need to visit to at least entertain the idea.

She sat up and tapped Verd on the shoulder. "I need you to make a stop before we leave Coruscant. Can you please take me to the Tourist Center? I have the coordinates right here," she said without letting him protest, she stretched herself over the transom and up to the operating console of the speeder and punched in the directions. The speeder was now on autopilot to the Coruscant Tourist Center.

Verd heard her question and was about to ask why the stop was going to be made.She quickly keyed in the coordinates for tourist center and the speeder took over and clicked into auto pilot. "Ok, Fine." Verd said angry that she hadn't given him time to respond. The airspeeder's company would have a called the police about the missing airspeeder, but they should have some time as of right now. "If you take more than 5 minutes I am coming in there for you." He knew that she would more or less be safe in so public an area, and one that bounty hunters wouldn't think to look for them, so he was alright with the idea. he decided that he would take time to change te plates on the vehicle, allowing for their safe passage to the starport. changing the license plates on their taxi with another would be no problem either. Verd could take over the speeder's controls if there was a reason for it, but he saw no point in doing so at the time. when they arrived, he told [member="Tmoxin Temi"] "Hurry back, and watch your shebs, cause I don't want to have to go inside for you."
