"No, no,
no..." the Android playfully chided over voice call as she rested in a bath, one of the few things that she could do to truly feel like an organic, besides it being necessary to clean dirt and grime off the skin. Next to her was a framed photo of her hugging a smiling Laertia, who was cradling a rabbit, resting on a small stool next to the tub.
"That is simply too little for what my client is worth. Tavyn The Fire Dancer is a top billing act and you know it, Bob. You saw all those crazy fething back flips and juggling he was doing with live grenades? Audiences love that chit. Well okay, they weren't 'actually' live, I wouldn't endanger an audience like that but the audience doesn't have to know they aren't live. We'll set up a fake safety zone around him. Bob? Bob?"
Bob the manager at the local Velmorite Casino had cut communication.
Moya sighed. The damn Firedancer act was damn near impossible to sell, even for Moya. But she'd get that poor bastard work yet. Her pseudo-daughter was not her only client these days. With Laertia getting back into The Order, Moya's ability to fund income for ship upkeep was drastically increased in importance. But that wasn't why she was actually here today.
Velmor was what she heard described as a hive of Darkness. Even with the SJO arriving to put band-aids on third degree burns, there were vast parts of the city they were in that had yet to be cleared out. All sorts of nasty stuff had been left after the enemy had been kicked out. One bit of nasty business she was here for was an alchemized device used to transmute objects. She was negotiating it out of the hands of a Hutt she was due to meet in a few hours. The Hutt had muscle. Good guns to go with that muscle too. Assembling a Spec Ops team to forcibly 'Retire' said Hutt would have been more trouble than it was worth. Besides, The Hutt might be useful down the road.
As she had never done an assignment of this sort before, she had decided to take a bath three hours before she was due to meet with him. It would calm her artificial nerves. Ideally, it would be done without blood.
Emphasis on
ideally.
The Android let the warm water relax her synthetic muscles, almost in a meditative state before she sensed danger.
It had entered her room in her cheap hotel. She sensed it was humanoid.
Slowly, quietly lifting herself out of the bath, she wrapped a towl around her bare, bronze skin, hair dripping still, and grabbed the lightsaber right next to Laertia's photo (Along with the photo itself) and waited.
The bathroom door opened and Moya stared as silenced slugthrower rounds peppered the bath-tub she had been relaxing in only moments before.
When the first shooter came in, a Nautolan woman in black armor, the first thing Moya did was kill her with green lightning.
The second shooter fired an automatic shotgun, its pellets casually penetrating the walls as a cloud of metal. They missed her head but blasted open her chest, which exposed bright green blood and organs
Moya had enough time to process the fact someone 'really' wanted her dead, before leaping out from cover, the hole in her torso big enough to fit her head through, and throwing out another deadly bolt of green that insta-gibbed her attacker, a Trandoshan.
Moya wasn't able to sigh, as the wound had taken out her heart and lungs. Fortunately for the Android, it didn't matter if you took those out. It was the head you needed to go for.

Moya sighed. She also felt extremely guilty these two were dead. But she had been caught off guard. She had never willingly done this type of work before.
Her chest would soon heal itself, like it had never been injured at all. Then Moya had to wash both her own blood and the other one's blood off her before she grabbed her gear, not wanting to be here when the authorities arrived. She leapt out from a second story window, clad only in undergarments and ducked into a bombed out building, a victim of Sith Devastation, and triggered her transformation protocols.
Five minutes later, a woman quite different looking from Moya, a Togrutan Woman with red skin and a thin, athletic build emerged from the ruins, clad in loose fitting, slightly revealing garb that allowed for full Mobility.
Oh, she was going to The Hutt, alright, she thought as she activated her saber, calmly beginning her trek to meet the Hutt early.
She was gonna meet with the Hutt no matter who tried to stop her on this utterly fethed planet.
As Moya strided down deserted streets, she began to feel that danger sense everywhere...
