The Finer Details

Hmm now that sounded like a challenge... maybe, Junko rather did like the idea of seeing her in combat. It was how she usually hired people for things like that. Instead allowing them to impress her and then later afterwards giving them the stock of equipment and fancy tech or toys they could like. "Well I will just have to see that then, I like hiring dangerous people. If they work for me, means they can't be used against me or my family." A small thing but she offered a smile while finishing the veggies and other things that needed to be cut. With everything in the pot she set it to cook and placed the lip on it after seasoning. "There we go now, we'll let that cook and can discuss anything else you like captain."

Kat leaned against the counter, elbows supporting her weight, facing the woman. "Well you mentioned family. What's yours like?" she asked.

"Very spread out across the galaxy." She looked at her and well how best to explain her family. "See there were three sisters who had large families and those families basically made our bloodline across the galaxy. THe nobles of Atrisia, elders of Emberlene and the others were nomadic going around to every planet on ships so my family is all over. When Atrisia fell to the One Sith, most of mine got wiped out, mother, father, little sister but I survived with the rest of my Yovshin swordsmen and some of the more skilled royal advisors. We went to one fo the worlds where my family has made a home and name and been staying there now in one of the mountain palaces we bought." She thought about it and Atrisia and Sakura were liberated for now but she would likely be to far away for the silver jedi to help if there were problems. Better to stay somewhere she could live and have more potential.

"Tragic." Kat said sympathetically to the woman, "I'm sorry..." Kat felt a sudden swell of sadness for the woman. She wasn't quite sure why. She wished she had never asked about the woman's family now. She was opening old wounds best left untouched.

Junko looked at her and her jedi senses were not the best but she had normal senses seeing the woman's face though while she spoke. "It is alright, I have gotten over it and it happened years ago." She was looking over more of the things and tapped her shoulder. "So get that sour look off your face, we're going to have a fun time and make it all interesting like. Plus there is going to be some good foood before we arrive and possible violence ensues." Junko was hoping for non violence but there was usually the threat of it. She didn't deny it was the world that she was living in before walking over some of the things to give her some of the interest they had developed.

Kat nodded to the woman and then cracked a smile, "Speaking of food how long? I'm starving." she said.

Kat couldn't help but wonder what it had been like to have a family. A real family. Not the dysfunctional group of maniacs she had unvoluntary been birthed into. The ones that nearly broke her.

Hmm Junko looked at her while she was standing there and tapped the pot for a moment getting a small glove to not be burned when she opened it up so she could see the steam coming off of it. The smell was there and she stirred the stew that was thick and soupy like picking it up with a look on her face. "Hmm it is looking good, where are the bowls?" And the spoons or maybe she had some of those tactical sporks that many of the people had giving it a small look on her face when she noticed the girl. "You have something else on your mind now. I can see and if you want to talk I am good at listening to people you know. I am a jedi and trained to help as well."

 

[Kat'Lariah Syphex]

Kat walked over to a cabinet and removed two bowls and sporks. "Its nothing. Lets eat."

Looking at her with a nod of her head to the woman. She was all for it and gathering her outer robe sat down ready to eat while bringing the finished stew over for them to eat. Sticking a few more things there like some small bread from the pouch of her belt where she had the MRE's her family made. the garlic bread that could go with it was easy to get back with a little water when she tore it for both of them. "Yes lets eat." She was excited and glad, this would chew up a good amount of time while they were headed towards the planet and allow them to get a better comfort level with each other before the possible violence ensued. All and all would be a good meal.

Kat ate the food with gusto. She'd not had food like this in a good long while! Small talk was made between her mouthfuls of food, but little was made by way of conversation for this exact reason. She was enjoying the food way to much. Finishing, she stood and took her plate, washing it with warm water and soap. "We should be arriving soon." she informed the Princess as she checked her watch.

Seating herself in the captains seat she waited to take the vessel out of hyperspace. Pulling a lever back, the streaks of light suddenly became singular dots, a backdrop for the planet before her.

THere wasn't much on the world, the signs of the jedi's tower there and the surrounding area was one of the ore developed sections of it and JUnko finished the food while cleaning up plenty of it with a nod fo her head. Getting ehr equipment as she set the lightsaber on her hip with a nod of her head. Allowing the force to reach out as she was looking and their base she pointed out the coordinates in the mountains to one of the more urbanized and set up areas with defensive turrets to keep away people. "We should be able to get in from the ground, I can cloak the two of us and using the tower where they are looking over and working off of for their power." The vents the jedi had set up so the tower would have power always with time and ensure they were working on many of the things. Junko was feeling rather excited at the prospect of working with the bounty hunter who had shown some good skill.

Piloting the metal behemoth, Kat landed the Howling Dark about a kilometer away form the ancient temple. Cutting the atmospheric thruster, the landing gear groaned under the weight of the vessel. Standing and grabbing the carbine which lay next to her on top of the dashboard Kat made ready, Chain Dusters attached to her belt, pistol in-holster. "You ready?" she asked of the Princess as she picked up the larger DC-15X Sniper Rifle.

She looked at her with a nod of her head, prepared to work on it and fight if need be as well as come in here and get her ship back. The installed processes they should have been working on it with for her were the most important thing. "Yes I am." Junko was in her jedi princess robes that were still in the experimental phse with her head dress and she could move now. Saber on her hip, pouches full of the equipment she needed and she was going out while providing a tactical datapad that would be good for the jedi to use when she was moving providing more of the works and attention. "Lets go." Junko moved to step out and she could deflect shots back if it was needed to protect her while the bounty hunter worked at a range to provide range attacks and cover until she pushed to immerse them in the white current focusing herself. The jedi citadel would be important to go and work with before she was moving forward seeing in the distance as she pointed. The large ship was a beast and it was her ship they had here in the mountains as it sat there. "There she is."

 

[Kat'Lariah Syphex]

Giving the Princess a once-over she nodded in approval. She certainly new what she was doing. As they stepped off the Howling Dark, Kat looked up at the large ship in appreciation. It certainly was large.

"We better get moving." she said, shouldering the large sniper rifle. Stepping into the wilderness she began the trek to the temple.

Junko was prepared, she was amped almost but the robes were focused, they were made to keep you calm in the heat of battle and pretty much all of the time. it let her roam around and work with more of the things that they were doing while feeling the force easier compared to some she had met. The benefits of the synth mesh as well as the highly protective nature that had been developed from and with it. "Alright lets go." She was looking at the woman and it felt different, she wasn't just paying her for her services now she was actually kind of invested in enjoying this trip in a way few others could match. THey might not be friends but they were not exactly strangers... there was a name for that and she could put in the ideas before moving carefully concealing the two of them as the jedi tower was in the distance with rubble where parts of it had been attacked on the ground around them. She was moving towards the doors and using her datapad to work remotely hacking it to open the doors.

 

[Kat'Lariah Syphex]

Kat stood guard, facing outwards, weapon at the ready, slowly scanning the treeline. Patiently she waited for the Princess to open the doors, the true beginning of all that was to come. She counted her breaths, slowing them. She was ready to protect this woman at all costs.

Junko moved towards the doors holding her saber at the ready with a nod of her head when the snap hiss came and she felt it for a moment. The blaster shot coming as her blade ignited with a snap hiss and the amber blade illuminated the dark towers entry way but also deflected the blaster bolt back towards the treeline as some of the men were coming. She had been hoping to sneak up and in there to tlk with them and try to get her ship... and that was still the goal. If they could get their comlinks to not tell the others they could sneak up before she was looking for the figures in the trees and stayed there until she was ready to give some of the information. Going inside where there was a disabled droid on the ground and she spoke. "Watch for the droid."

 

[Kat'Lariah Syphex]

Kat fired at the incoming forces, the round from her sniper rifle striking one square in the chest, knocking him backwards several feet, having been shot from sucha close proximity. Slinging the sniper rifle over her shoulder and switching to her carbine she fired rapidly at the attacking men, shuffling her feet backwards until her feet contacted the droid. Stepping over it she kicked it out past the door and resumed her methodical firing. By now she had taken four men out.

Junko was watching her and she was looking at her skill with the blaster, she had more impressive skills then she had let on before the jedi knight moved towards one fo the consoles and started up the citadel while trying to get the door closed. She wanted to have the work that they were doing prepared to go until she looked at where the power was being sent. A tether they were using to send the power to their base nearby and the quickest method there before she was bringing up the maps on the datapad to give the ounty hunter a place to work on some of the things. She was serving it up then moving as she spoke. "Looks like they were installing stealth technology on the ship along with more weapons."

 

[Kat'Lariah Syphex]

Twitch. Another man down. Twitch, another dead. Kat had taken out the remaining attackers. Going to Junko she listened to the woman speak. "Thats a well loaded ship if you ask me." she replied to her.
