Yula’s sheepish smile turned into a more genuine grin despite the admonishment. “Glad to hear that Saya’s following in your footsteps, Uncle Dax. Sounds like she’s going to give you and Auntie Ki a run for your credits!” Their family was blended; blood ties, adoptions and close relations were all counted equally. “Ma’s good. Busy with the company; she just bought some fancy hotel in downtown Zeltros. I’ll tell her to ping you sometime. Free stay and all that.” Yula paused, thoughts dwelling on her mother. “Oh, uh…” Back with the guilty smile again. “I’d appreciate it if you could…not tell mom? Please?” Awkwardly, she rubbed the back of her neck and tried to do her best puppy dog eyes.
Yula had expected to be handed a blaster or a knife—not a lightsaber, and certainly not a weapon that held so much sentimental value! Her eyes widened as she looked towards the proffered hilt. For once, there was hesitation in her gaze. “Uncle Dax, I can’t…” But she did, reaching out towards the saber until her hand had wrapped around the hilt. Though in good condition, it had a sort of weathered feel to it, weighted with the experience of two masters. Don’t say that; I’m probably going to lose this! Somehow, the joke didn’t find its way out. Instead, she smiled. “Thank you, Uncle Dax. I promise I'll take good care of it.”
Their little moment came to an end when out from the shadows of the alley came a man, bleeding from the shoulder. Yula didn’t recognize him until he spoke her name and a new, even fresher wave of surprise hit her. “I…did what? That whole thing was a setup?” She looked towards Dax for a lead, feeling the shift in the Force as her uncle’s guard heightened. Suddenly she felt very embarrassed, perhaps flustered that she’d been captured in the first place, and now she’d ruined their once chance at peace and all of this happened because of her and…alright, maybe he was lying. “You should have told me! I could have helped you. Or at the very least, not set the building on fire.” She pointed wildly in the vague direction from which he'd come to punctuate her point. While this was going on, Dax had been answering a distress call from another part of the undercity.
Yula turned to face the presumed gangster fully, face scrunched in a mix of bewilderment and distrust. Something wasn’t adding up. What was to be done in a situation like this? What if he was lying? What if he was telling the truth, what then? Dax’s presence made her feel safer, put her more at ease if that was at all possible in a warzone. Yula inherently wanted to trust this agent, to believe that there were good people in the galaxy that would fight for what was right. Who didn’t think that they weren’t fighting for the right cause, though?
Dax invited him along, what was done was done. Yula clipped the saber to her belt and stalked forward. “If you’re going to roll with us,” She brushed back the tatters and widened the rips around his wound, not wanting to catch any of his clothing. “We can’t have you bleeding out all over the place.” Her good hand pressed to his injury and her face creased in concentration. Suddenly, a steady burst of flame emitted from her palm and licked up toward her fingers. She groaned softly through her teeth as her burned hand came to rest on his shoulder for added support, making sure to keep the pressure up against his wound. “There.” She exhaled, straightening up. “Let’s hope they trained you better than those lieutenants.”
Without much else to say, Yula turned and paced back towards The Sparrow, hopping aboard the ship as it lowered. With any luck, she’d find something to bandage her burnt arm with before they got into the meat of the fighting.
