				(http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/7163/masseffect2wallpaper519.jpg)<br><br>May 11, 2281<br>1730 HRS<br>Zantelle Starbase, Owl Nebula Cluster<br><br>"<em>Voyage has been fairly uneventful so far. We arrived at Zantelle a few hours ago, gave everyone shore leave for six hours. Here's to hopes that maybe we find something useful to do here, maybe find something in the commodities market, or find some cargo or passenger to run of the sort..</em>."<br><br>Entropy:<br>(http://img190.imageshack.us/img190/4495/flux2.png)<br><br>Bar Music:<br>http://youtu.be/42Bjr9e-G8E (http://youtu.be/42Bjr9e-G8E)<br><br>Alyx was a bit tired. He would admit it; he hadn't been sleeping quite as he wanted, but there had been work to do. He gave a soft sigh as he leaned forward on the counter a little bit, staring into the small glass filled with bright green liquid. Some of his long almost raven black hair fell a little forward in front of his vision, blocking most of the view of the bar around him. His white cuffs on his black canvas jacket was starting to border on stylish and maybe not so functional; his gray pants and teal turtleneck gave him a somewhat rugged look. A Nova-Shade pistol was strapped to his right leg. His youth was clearly evident despite his age of 24; most of the patrons here were a few years older at him.<br><br>Entropy was a pretty light-hearted social hangout spot for anyone who wanted to wind down, and who wasn't looking for anything too rough. Most of the higher-class visitors came here. It was open to anybody, but that was the aire is had seemed to give off since its opening four years ago; it couldn't be helped.<br><br>He was sitting at a table in a corner near the windows. He could see the dance floor opposite him and the bar entrance. Keeping an eye on who was coming and going&nbsp; wasn't proving anything fruitful, but it was a good way to spot a potential customer, or see if trouble would brew. People came to civilian freelancers like him for help with certain issues that'd be too expensive or too pansy for a regular mercenary. Or they would come thinking to pull a shady shennanigan that would turn out to be a scam...<br><br>"Would you like me to take that for you?" A waitress had approached him, motioning to his half-empty glass. She was dressed somewhat fancy in a sleeveless top with a snug skirt that reached her knees. Her questioning eyes seemed to know that Alyx wasn't really bothering with his beverage.<br><br>"Yeah, here you go." Alyx quickly gulped the entire contents of the glass and handed it to her, momentarily sucking his upper lip as he reached for a paper napkin to wipe his mouth. The waitress smiled as she walked off, leaving him alone once more.

				Shay tapped her fingers against the table as she looked quietly through the window towards the ship. Her black hair was tied up behind her head as a pink ribbon kept it locked in place. Her hazel eyes shifted their attention back to the small electronic terminal in front of her as she idly glanced through the various information the Zanatelle starbase had to offer. Her faded black jacket clung to her body as the buttons remained left open, never truly intending to be buttoned up. her white strapless top was visible from the opening of the jacket as her large cleavage managed to show off rather well for those peeping eyes to see. A rather simple pair of long black pants clung comfortably to her frame as only a few pockets lined around the shape of her body. A simple black belt rested around her waist with a oval shaped silver belt buckle kept it tight around her body, despite her pants fitting firmly enough to not warrant needing the extra security to keep them in place. A light thumping noise could be heard as she tapped her toes against the ground in her black boots. It wasn't exactly the most fashionable approach, though she had no real reason to dress up to begin with. It functioned perfectly fine with her and worked well for giving her flexibility and comfort she found herself use to, not to mention the various hidden knives it allowed her to carry for those unsuspecting it.<br><br>Six hours of shore leave seemed like such a long time to spend. Her attachment to the vessel was something she had found to be stronger then she could ever imagine when she had agreed to pool together the funding to purchase it. While she had once viewed it as a bit run down and lacking on features in the past, now that it was owned in part by her, she viewed it as if it was some sacred place. It was her golden ticket to a new life that she wanted nothing more then to take and run off with for as long as possible. She worked nimbly through the terminal as she checked upon the particular status of the ship noting that the refueling was currently taking place. She let out a soft sigh as she forced herself to stand up and walk away from the computer.&nbsp; The door before her slid open quickly as she walked out into the hallway. She walked calmly forward as her eyes glanced around looking curiously about. It could be such a hassle to find work at times. Jobs seemed to be few and far between. Their ship wasn't exactly the newest in the fleet, so having limited funding could be very risky should any little parts go wrong. As soon as one thing was fixed and upgraded to be fresh and new, something else always seemed to falter. Even with those little problems, the ship itself was in rather good working condition for its age. While it might be out-dated, it was built at the time of production to last. <br><br>The twenty-one year old wandered into the bar quietly as her eyes glanced around. It seemed oddly rather well refined for a bar. She spotted Alyx from the corner of her eye. She walked casually over towards the bar as she sat down. While it might be nice to say something to her partner, when it came to business it would work best to keep some distance. Having two people together often deterred people away from doing business. There would be individuals who would more likely approach him due to his more rugged appearance and be detracted from her. She could have her own 'assets' to her advantage as well as she kept a calm and collective appearance behind her. She didn't order any particular drink as she waved the bartender off. She wasn't much of a drinker herself. When it came to her work, being under the influence wasn't very ideal. She could take a few drinks, but ideally she avoided it to prevent clumsy slip ups it could cause. She kept still remaining as she was as she sat at the bar rather calmly. If luck might come to her she might end up snagging a job, or at the very least a free drink.

				Marina was strolling&nbsp; around the starbases stores rather boredly. Her objective was to find a floral shop and see what she could find there. She had always loved gardening. It was something her grandfather had taught her how to do when she was younger. Of course this was when he wasn't out fishing. She never did figure out why Alyx was kind enough to take her onto the vessle but she had no reason to complain.<br><br>She got away from that boring planet, she was allowed to keep a garden, and she had some "friends" she could spend time with. Her life seemed quite alright. She loved lounging around or working on the garden. She was getting agitated that there didn't seem to be any gardening stores whatsoever. <br><br>Soon enough she found one and sighed happy that there was at least a gardening shop on this station. She began to browse humming a soft tune as she did so.

				The changing of the seasons often brings about new feelings and desires in humans. Winter can put people in a relative stupor, the effects of being penned up for several months away from sunlight was sometimes depressing. For as far back as time remembered, "spring cleaning" was a drive that pushed people to clear out the dust that had settled over winter and make room for new life. The subsidence of cold and emergence of the fresh shoots of spring could be felt deep in the marrow of your bones, an urging to "get up and go" so to speak.<br><br>To Setsuko, a child of nature, her otherwise barren space travels were punctuated by the short trips planetside. No matter the weather, shore leave was the "Spring" of her new year. It's not that she didn't enjoy her time on the Sagittarius - the people she had met were good company and the staff made all kinds of accommodations for her. She did her best to be helpful and found that busy hands and a busy mind were the best tool for maintaining her happiness. <br><br>But still, days like today were a treasure and she wandered around the area with a spring in her step. She lucked out by being able to find some daikon and hugged it close to her chest as she wandered about the rest of shopping district. Eventually, she tired and moved to the bar where she had heard some of her shipmates would be spending their time. <br><br>Entropy was the sort of swank, modern hangout that was very up to date and very much not the sort of place she felt all that comfortable in. Setsuko awkwardly made her way up to the bar, nearly bumping into a few patrons on the way. She had little more than pocket change but it proved to be enough to buy a drink, although she did have to ask the tender to make a suggestion as she hadn't a clue what was good in the area.<br><br>With a sigh, she turned around, swizzling a straw in the ice. She took a look around the place to see if anyone she knew had arrived yet.

				Running a hand through her long hair Panacea let out a long sigh. It was a long flight to the Zantelle Starbase, and having to navigate the ship often times left her groggy and a little cranky. Stretching her long arms above her head, her back forming to fit a marvelous arch, she yawned and made her way off the ship. With a spring in her step, she was all too eager to escape from the Sagittarius. <br><br>Her long, opulent blonde hair flowed in waves against her body, clothed in a mostly Earth-like fashion. Although Panacea had spent a short time on the planet, she was almost automatically fixated with it. It's lovely earth toned colors, browns, greens, light blues, the magnificent nature paired with the bustling cities- it was all too perfect for her. So now, adorned in ripped blue jeans and a form-fitting brown tank top, a brown belt around her waist that carried her katana (it was odd that she carried it around, even now, and she knew it, but that didn't really matter to her) she explored the starbase.

				Lyra was wandering aimlessly about the starbase. She had always been the sort to be easily amused and as she popped in and out of the limitless shops and watched the comings and goings of the various other patrons she found herself having a rather lovely time. She personally was glad for the leave time and even more glad for the opportunity to have a look around the starbase. Lyra was a carefree type of girl and the chance to explore was not wasted on her. <br><br>She idly wondered what her fellow companions were doing on their off time, and hoped that they were out enjoying themselves as well. Lyra didn't know when they would have a chance to get to stretch their legs like this again and she was taking full advantage. When she'd been in the military there had never been time for such excursions. There was constantly and itinerary to follow, places to be, people to deal with. That type of life had not suited one such as herself and now that she was free from it Lyra made good on taking her time these days. There was too much to see and do in the universe to be so strict. <br><br>She wandered into yet another shop, one that carried all sorts of exotic other world fabrics and made herself busy looking through the wares. Keeping in mind that she was often easily distracted she remembered to check her watch often for the time. It wouldn't be the first time that she would let hours pass without her notice and she couldn't simply leave the crew hanging because of her carelessness. Lyra after all was the pilot and it wouldn't do leave them all stranded because she was a scatterbrain.

				Careless. SEra sat at the bar, her black environment suit reflecting little of the harsh lights, looking around through her purple facemask, her slender, yet curvy form emphasized by the outfit. She needed to get this data handed off to someone who could use it, do something with it. She couldn't, but she was in danger if anyone had found her. She didn't think they had, but she wanted to be safe, not dead. The tall girl stood up, paying for her untouched drink, then wandered into the rest of the station. Time to find a place to hide for the night. Again.

				Alyx sighed. Nobody had approached them for over ninety minutes now. His eye caught Setsuko at one part of the bar and Shay at another. Shay was playing the same thing he was, except that sometimes other people were more comfortable to approach her than him. Either way it worked out, as the client would talk to both of them at the same time to hammer out details.<br><br>Swiping his drink off the table, Alyx made his way towards the counter, nearly bumping into a few people on the way there. He found Setsuko as he sidled up to a seat next to her at the counter, sitting down. <br><br>"Hopefully you've had better luck getting something done than I did," he greeted her, half in jest. His smile showed hints of fatigue and stress, glancing around him once more.<br><br>Something slightly did seem out of place. He quickly looked over the bar once more. Then it struck him; Alyx tried not to stare, but the person he had passed on the way, the table she was from. The drink was full. That sort of hinted something at him. He looked over at Shay, nodding to the table then the alien when she looked her direction before turning away to be discreet. Hopefully she got the clue.

				Shay shifted her glance over as she spotted as one particular individual who payed for a drink she didn't even consume. She shifted her eyes as she noticed Alyx stare towards her. She gave a slight nod as she stood herself up. The busty young woman smiled at a nearby patron and nodded a little in response as she got up as if to show a sign of kind hospitality should they want to sit where she had been. She calmly made her way out of the bar as she followed suit with the woman. She had only one thought in mind in getting in contact with her. It did worry her that she might consider her to be a threat for tailing her which only made her that much more cautious while also very eager to meet up with her soon. If it was one thing she could be certain of, her rush to escape without finishing her drink meant she was either being tailed or felt threatened enough to get out of their quickly. Whatever was up it might just be the perfect thing to get a job for. She could only hope she would open up to her and offer them the job. She just needed to catch her and find a place that would be less likely to raise any flags with people suspecting any foul intent. It seemed a little silly to her, but she didn't want her to panic with others around and cause any further trouble.<br><br>She calmly kept pursuit as she kept some distance on her as she didn't want to suddenly alarm her or make a big scene. As she turned to a less populated area of the station, she took the chance to move through the hallway to catch her. Keeping in mind the layout of the station, she knew the chance to catch up with her would be now. She just had to hope she didn't start running off on her or she took some odd detour she didn't account for. Shay turned around the corner as she stepped in front of the girl as her own eyes gave a brief look around to ensure they were alone. She felt a bit off by having to go so directly to someone who appeared rather nervous as it was, but she knew it wasn't very likely she would so willingly open up and come forward on her own. <strong>"I mean you know harm..." </strong>She spoke simply as she lifted her hands as if to show herself to be unarmed. Granted she had daggers concealed on her, she figured such a gesture would likely prompt less of a panic on the girl. She looked at the girl calmly. <strong>"I'm part of a crew of mercenaries of sorts... it seemed you were in trouble... are you alright?"</strong> She softly asked her as she attempted to show concern. She wasn't about to expose the fact she came up to her for a job just yet. Establishing some form of connection was always best in getting a job as well as ensuring good pay for one.

				Sera looked at the girl who had apparently followed her for a while. Her hand drifted to her pistol, but she didn't draw it yet. This girl didn't seem to be dangerous. But she was a mercenary. Who knew if she was on <em>their</em> payroll? After a while, she spoke carefully, her voice modulation taking most of the tone out of her voice. "I am fine. I was just trying to find somewhere to sleep that I hadn't already slept. Know of any places?"

				The young woman looked at the girl as she noticed her hand drifting to likely ready herself to grab a weapon. It was a motion she had grew quickly to know instinctively. She watched her calmly as she saw no sudden motion to draw on her that would make her react quickly to evade or counter before she might get shot. Shay let out a light sigh as she spoke back towards her. It wasn't exactly the response she had wanted, but it could be a start. She knew full well she likely might not hear the end of it if it turns out to be just some freeloader she managed to find and misread her motives for running away. Her eyes fixated at the woman as she slowly lowered her hands to her sides. She made sure not to pull any strange gestures towards her as she stood calmly before Sera. <strong>"I might know a place... I'll need to ask the captain about it though, if you don't mind coming with me to speak with him." </strong>She spoke simply in response to her request to sleep somewhere. It wasn't exactly something she would say normally. When it came to the ship, she rarely ever let Alyx be the authoritative figure in times of 'calm'. She felt as much right to invite people on as he had. It was in part 'her' ship. If she brought the girl with her to speak with Alyx it would be more likely for her to warm up to them and possibly expose the reason she might have so quickly rushed off.<br><br>She turned around as she glanced back towards the girl. <strong>"I take it you want to meet somewhere a little more private to speak then the bar?"</strong> She softly questioned the girl in suspicion that she most likely wouldn't want to return to the bar. She began to walk as she kept her glances returning to the potential client as she tried to sum her up as she awaited for an answer, heading in the general direction of the bar. It happened to be the same way the ship was so going that way wouldn't likely cause to much of a hamper in getting to where they would need to go to have a small meeting. She looked back towards her as she deicded to speak up a little bit, wanting to create idle conversation while also potentially trying to spark interest in the girl. <strong>"Sorry again for tailing you. You seemed to be a bit in distress so I couldn't help but follow. You see, we really don't have any work right now ourselves so I guess I have some time to kill doing silly things like that."</strong> She let out a light laugh at her own expense.

				"You are forgiven for following me, since you didn't shoot me in the back. But if I had noticed you following me, I'm not sure I would have asked why before shooting." Sera walked with her. "And yes, I think I private place to talk would be best, as well as a meeting with your captain. And maybe some work, depending on how much I feel I can trust your captain."

				She looked towards sera as she continued forward. She nodded a bit as she pulled out her ear piece from her one pocket and the small PDA type device in the other. She pressed the screen as she quickly linked up with Alyx. <strong>"Ship, 5." </strong> She spoke out briefly before pressing the screen once again and placing it back into her pocket with the little headset device that had rested on her ear. It was a rather quick message emphasizing the location and the time of meeting being in five minutes. It was a bit of a rush to expect him to get to the ship in that time, but having him hurry up was the best way to get him to arrive sooner rather then later. She looked towards the girl as she walked calmly forward leading her towards the docking bay where their ship was. It wasn't that far of a walk to go through, though it still left enough time for her to start some conversation.<strong> "I try my best not to be seen for that reason. It also allowed me to scope out if you were being followed as well which might be why your rushing."</strong> She spoke with a light smile as she made light of what she had done to track the girl. She wanted to create a rather positive impression of herself for the girl. If she could feel comfortable with herself while Alyx hopefully would show himself to be a confident captain, it would create a dynamic setup that she can both feel comfortable with her and trust in the captain to be able to do any task she might need.

				Alyx watched as Shay leave after the person, resisting the urge to follow her. Perhaps someone was in that bar, and more than one person would tip the person off and might complicate things. No, he'd stick to his drink and stay with Setsuko and try to look like he was just socializing. Shay could whip most anything into whipped cream, and if she needed help, she'd reach him.<br><br>He started to think what to do now. There might be a cargo contract or two at the small shipping yard here. Sometimes freighters were overbooked, or a cargo container needed to be run somewhere really fast. Then there was the commodities listings and then the mercenary job boards...<br><br>Alyx's comm unit buzzed in his pants pocket as he stuck his hand in to pull it out. Getting his earpiece on he answered.<br><br>"Alyx here."<br><br>He listened to her two-word message then put the devices away when the message was finished. Didn't sound too urgent, but the timeframe she had given him meant that she didn't want him there at his own convenience. And she didn't sound out of breath or anything, so he was safely assuming that Shay had some result with locating the person and making contact.<br><br>"Shay needs me. I'll be back soon; call if you need anything." Alyx nodded to Setsuko as he got off the stool next to her and left at a fast but normal looking pace out of the bar, heading towards where Sagittarius was docked. Whatever was the outcome, he'd soon know about it.

				Shay nodded a bit to her as she made her way to the dock. Her eyes slipped up as she glanced upon the Sagittarius. She never got over the feeling of looking up at a ship that she actually owned, granted it was owned in part with someone else. So much of the money had been earned from her past life... one she happily moved on from in order to be free of such a world she had grow up in rather uneasily. She lead Sera over towards the ship before stopping just in front of it. She crossed her arms looking at her with a light nod. <strong>"Alright, he should be here any minute." </strong> She spoke as she leaned up against the nearby railing. The young woman glanced towards her with a light smile on her lips. <strong>"You really seemed to be in a rush to leave. You don't usually see someone paying for a drink and leaving that they didn't even take a sip of. It is used as a sign of sorts in the business to signal to others that you are being chased most often without making too much attention towards anyone potentially seeking you out that you know."</strong> She softly commented to her regarding what had raised suspicion. It was one of several different signs that she knew of distress. It was one of the less subtle ones to use due to the fact that many people might find it strange to order a drink and leave it without finishing it off, but it was something that usually was much easier to recognize then the others.

				"I usually don't rush out like that. But I had a feeling I was being watched. And when you get those feelings, you don't sit around waiting to get shot. Or for someone to wrap their hands around your neck." She crossed her arms under her ample breasts, looking over the ship. "Not a bad craft. What's her name?"

				The fact the woman complimented the ship at all sent her through a strange feeling of excitement. It was in part owned by her after all so having her ship spoke of was a great feeling for her. The young woman crossed her arms under her own breasts as she started to speak out in response. <strong>"Ah... we call her the Sagittarius. It is a rather large craft in its own right and has been modified a bit to function properly with a smaller crew. A lot of the interior was redesigned to fit our needs and lifestyle. I personally put a lot of time and energy into reworking the electronics and inner workings to give it a more homey feel with more privacy and the ability to clearly contact fellow crew members on board without having to rely on communicators. Its practically hack proof from the outside and even if you were to find your way into the ship, it will take a lot of work to even try to break the system I set up."</strong> She bragged a bit as she went off in a bit of a tangent in one direction of the ship. She wasn't one to really brag about her work all that much, but the ship was something that brought her much pride for having in her possession, specially with many of the things she did to get it functioning good as new. She stood before the woman with a smile on her lips as she suddenly realized how far off tangent she had gotten. She rested her hand on her head shaking her head. <strong>"Oh boy... sorry that was rather rude of me. My name is Shay, and what might your name be?"</strong> She asked before sliding her hand behind her head and scratching it rather awkwardly at her delay on asking such a question.

				"My name is Sera'Zarda. And you should be careful to call anything 'practically hack proof' from the outside, and mention that it would be a lot of work to break the system. After all, some might see that as a challenge. Although I compliment you for getting it to run with a smaller crew. Less people to trust with the way on the ship."

				Having found a few interesting looking specimines she purchased them and was quick to head back to the sagitarius. She wanted to get her new plants to the garden so that they would be able to grow nice and propper. The smile on her face was a serene one. Soon she found herself strolling through the docks again until she found the ship she was looking for.<br><br>Once aboard the vessel she went to her little garden and began preparing a place for the plants after all she wanted to get them planted and then get back out to see what the others were up to. She wasn't sure where the others were but knew that they would make their way back when they needed to.

				Setsuko shyly nodded and brought her daikon raddish up for Alyx to inspect. She didn't say much, as was usual, and when Alyx ran off, she sighed and went back to the drink she had been given.

				Alyx felt bad for ditching Setsuko like that. He honestly would have stayed and talked to her more and see how her stay was going. This seemed really really important, however. He planned on being back, or catching up with her later to make up.<br><br>It wasn't long before he reached the bay where most of the corvette and frigate class ships where docked. It wasn't too busy a crowd, and barely anyone was standing around when he got near the Sagittarius. The hull gleamed with the lights shining down on her, the anti-corrosive wash that had been applied awhile back helping with the effect. <br><br>He spied two figures against the railing not far from a walkway that led into the ship. They seemed to be engaged in conversation as he approached; he was sure that the two heard him as he walked up. As their conversation died off, he spoke up.<br><br>"Ah, there you are." Alyx stepped closer. "What's going on?"<br><br>He stared at the woman in suit, her legs. She was alien all right. He couldn't tell if she was panicked or not at the moment due to her helmet, so he was not sure if she was considering if it was safe. Alyx remained alert, wondering what was exactly involved with dealing with this person.

				"Well, your partner followed me from a bar after I left it, albeit suspiciously. She informed me that you were mercenaries. I believe you were not paid to eliminate me, otherwise she'd have done it. So when she offered a private meeting, I agreed to it for personal reasons. Once we are actually in a private setting, I'll tell you more. But even on this dock, we are too exposed. I've had brushes with death, and I don't intend to have another one."

				Shay simply nodded a bit in response to the woman's words. She wasn't exactly wanting to scare her off as a potential client by giving any step of authority in her own right over Alyx. She couldn't help but glare a bit at his eyes as they seemed to linger where they had no business of being though it was only a brief glance that quickly shifted away. It wasn't such a big deal that she would need to bring it up or anything. It was just one of those small details that likely only would have use should he do something to really piss her off. Even the smallest mistake could be used as ammunition in those cases. She spoke up calmly as she shifted her stand as she kept her hand on her hip. <strong>"That is right. I think its best we discuss this in the comforts of the ship."</strong> She spoke as a further sign of confirmation of the girl's words while also pushing for Alyx to get the business underway and onto the ship. She truthfully didn't mind being able to show off her ship a bit. It was a guilty pleasure that she did her best to keep secret. Even if the ship was just a rusty old screw and nothing more, she would still likely praise it. Having her with them now was a good indication of the likelihood she would consider them for a job. Its not exactly the best idea to give away any jobs your dealing to someone and then simply go to someone else. If the job was something others would want to stop, its very likely that crew you might of told could be the very people next after you for an easy reward.

				Alyx noticed Shay's glare, but the woman's calves were bent and curved. And the toes...it was the only reason he looked. He listened to the story, but did not act on her story or go in the ship till Shay said so. He trusted Shay, not this woman, at least not yet. When Shay confirmed that they meet inside, he nodded and walked towards the outer airlock door, punching in a code. The door hissed at it slid open, another inner door turning and opening before actually letting them into the airlock of the ship.<br><br>Once everyone was inside, the door closed and a sterilizing light briefly washed over them, a hiss of gases following. <br><br>"Decontamination complete. Welcome aboard." The computer spoke. The doors on the other end opened as they were finally on board, in the little hallway between the CIC and the cockpit.<br><br>"So, we're on board. Would you like to sit down and talk? Or tell us what's going on while we give you a tour?" He waited for Shay to respond, not quite familiar what repoire she had built with Sera and how she wanted to handle things. He assumed to gain her trust first, as complying with talking on the ship. He'd let things play out. But from what he had heard, he was starting to wonder about her implications...

				Shay casually stepped into the ship as the normal decontamination process began. It was something she had grown use to. Most of the ships she had the 'pleasure' of going on never really had such a 'luxury' item, even though the actual technology was relatively old. It had to be tweaked a bit to be working properly in the time period they were in now, but for the most part the decontamination chamber was one of the least fixed up parts of the ship. It was good too, considering she wasn't exactly a medical expert which made working with such technology that much more complicated to figure out. She gave a slight nod as if to nonverbally confirm what Alyx said as they walked through the doors onto the actual ship. Her eyes lingered in brief awe over a ship she had been staying in for some time. Call it silly, but even with a gap of time having passed since being acquired, she still held a fascination over owning such a vessel. The aspect of giving a stranger a tour only made her blush a bit and cringe to herself with her head turned away that she found herself acting like a giggling child finding entertainment in such mundane things. <br><br>The shapely woman looked calmly towards the mysterious girl as she gave a light smile in hopes of encouraging her. <strong>"Don't worry, the ship itself is secure. Anything you say here won't ever get past the hull."</strong> She spoke softly as she seemed to avoid giving to strong of an authoritative tone. She wanted Alyx to provide that stance when it came to discussing business. From what she could tell about the woman, she was rather uneasy about whatever was bothering to begin with. Hopefully giving a calm demeanor herself and providing her with a sense of safety would allow her to relax and open up to tell what exactly the situation is.

But I suppose that is why I'm here, to make sure that if something does happen to me, the information is still out there. Believe me, it is information I value more than my life." Sera looked around the ship. Not a bad ship. Clearly, they took good care of her.

				As they always did, the hours off the ship flew by far too quickly, and Panacea found herself making her way back to the ship. There was no longer a spring in her step; god only knew how long it would be until they would stop again. With a heavy sigh, she stepped back onto the ship, seeking out the company of her crew to figure out where they were going so she'd know which maps to grab.<br><br>As she made her way about the ship, her hips swayed to and fro with each step. Running a hand through her hair, she let out a bored yawn. Before long she stumbled upon Shay, and someone new. Cocking her head to the side, she nodded to Shay in a friendly manner&nbsp; before giving the new girl a once over. "And who might I have the pleasure of meeting?" Panacea asked in a playful manner, extending her hand to the newcomer.

Panacea offered the girl a warm smile as she inquired about her travel plans, simply wondering whether or not she should make arrangements for sleeping quarters and whatever else she may need. As far as Panacea was concerned, guests were to be treated well, and would be well cared for on the ship.

				Shay let out a light sigh as Panacea came up to them. While she didn't mind her companion at all, she was a little worried about the girl's penchant for mischief. She expected the fact she was a guest as of right now, that she might hold off from such trouble making. The last thing she wanted was for their new potential client to suddenly be chased off by her love for starting trouble. She decided to speak up, not wanting to cause her to linger to much on the subject and help to give Panacrea an idea of why she was aboard the ship. <strong>"She is here for business right now. We haven't exactly finished talking about the details right now so we really don't know the full extent of what we can do to aid her."</strong> She spoke with a light smile on her lips to keep a friendly demeanor about her while attempting to make it rather well known to Panacea to not cause trouble until they had a job set up. She looked towards the woman as her mind lingered on her past comment before her companion had shown up. It left her being rather curious about the subject matter. Information that held so much value to a person usually had some juicy details about it. What made it worst was the fact that something that had that amount of importance could mean it was very dangerous information to hold. She glanced over at Alyx as if to see what his own reaction would be on it. She figured keeping quiet about those thoughts would be best for now.

				Alyx was quiet as Panacea introduced herself to Sera, then spoke up after Shay had finished speaking to her.<br><br>"Yeah, don't worry too much, I'll let you know." Alyx gave her a small quirky smile in assurance, affirming Shay's words. "By the way, I left the regions which we're probably going to need, so you can go fill them in whenever you want. I'm still waiting to hear back from somebody before leaving."<br><br>"Sera, this is our navigator. She helps our pilot out so she's not burdened with all the work." He introduced her, attempting to ease more tensions.<br><br>So Panacea had came on board on her own. The others might be here soon as the time had been going by. Or they might just come early as Marina had. <br><br>Alyx got back to the subject at hand. Information? About what? It sounded pretty heavy whatever it was. Now Sera had her curiosity. It was clear that she was under the gun from multiple eyes for what she had, and could see it reflective in her actions.

				Marina had finished with her gardening content that everything was now in place and watered "there we are nice and cozy in your new home" she had a bright smile as she went to see if anyone else was back. Upon seeing Alyx, Shey, Panacea, and the stranger she blinked "Ah captain can I get some tea for you all?" she was partially teasing Alyx and partially asking if they needed anything. <br><br>Though her main hobby was gardening Marina also had a knack for making tea, and cooking she would often make snacks and the likes for the others. of course when she wasn't doing that she would nap. She hated Panacea's penchant for causing trouble since she was the other girl's primary target.

				Though despite her best efforts Lyra lost track of time during her starbase walkabout. She'd been off wandering around true to her nature and forgotten yet again when they were supposed to meet back at the ship. This habit of hers was hardly enduring and she knew if she didn't book it back to the ship she was going to be in trouble. Lyra broke off in a jog as she weaved in and out of people milling around the base, checking her watch frantically as she tried to remember just where the hell the Sagittarius was docked. <br><br>"C'mon, c'mon..." she murmured to herself as she started in a full out sprint. Lyra's eyes scanning her surroundings as she ran, just how the hell did she manage to wander down this far without noticing. Truthfully she knew the answer was that when she wasn't at the helm she was as scatterbrained as they came, but Lyra didn't want to admit that. She felt a spike of relief as she finally reached the Sagittarius, though she cringed a bit as she thought of the less than pleased crew that were waiting for her inside. Lyra bounded inside the ship, whisking through the decontaminator and sprinted up to the deck. <br><br>"I know! I know I'm late!" she shouted to no one in particular, too much of a mess to really get her barrings on the situation. She looked around wildly for a moment before her gaze finally landed on Alyx, Shay, and the stranger with them. She held up her hands in mock surrender as she approached, her expression that of a child's who wanted to escape a punishment. "I know I'm late... I'm sorry I just got distracted... <em>again</em>." Lyra bit her lip and tried her best to look apologetic, though she was looking even more like a child than ever. Her gaze shifted from her superiors to the newcomer and she flashed another apologetic smile, "I hope you'll forgive my lateness as well, I'm Lyra."

				In the next few minutes, it seemed almost everyone had come up at once at their new "guest". Alyx was almost sure that Sera would be asking questions who these people were, as Shay and him were the only ones that appeared to be the type to be able to throw out damage to some extent.<br><br>But he could read Shay's expression of wanting some empty space for the moment. Alyx would try to get some space for Sera shortly to find out exactly what was going on. In that being, meaning that they would delay launching. Or at least leaving the station's control space completely.<br><br>"Oh hey," Alyx greeted Marina. He was glad to see that she was doing fine. Her question was welcomed and appreciated; her cooking and food making skills were quite developed. He nodded. <br><br>"Yeah, I don't mind some." He answered. Alyx was about to give more instructions when the door hissed open not fare from her, and Lyra burst in. He nodded to her and waited her to finish, watching her introduce herself.<br><br>"Heh, don't worry about it, Setsuko didn't come back yet either," He tried to assure Lyra. "Just check everything in the meantime, we should be finished with fueling. I'll let you know when we get underway."<br><br>"This is Marina," Alyx motioned to her. "and Lyra's our pilot. And it is a private place, this is almost all of our crewmembers. You might have seen a girl in Entropy wearing Japanese clothing, she's our other member," He explained. "We stopped for fuel more or less and I gave them a chance to stretch their legs and see if there was any job offers that we can do. I believe Shay told you some of the details."

				Shay could only glance over as everyone seemed to all be coming in at once. It really was quiet troublesome for business. She let out a soft sigh as she did her best to hide it away from the guest. While she truly enjoyed the company of everyone aboard the ship, there were plenty of times she felt they served more as a distraction rather then an actual working body to allow the ship to function. Despite that, she wouldn't trade anyone on the crew. She enjoyed each person for their own perks and color they bring to the ship. <em>Heaven forbid I didn't have them around and I was alone with Alyx.</em> She thought as a soft blush came to her cheek. She shook her head as she tried to nudge that thought from her mind. The thought had come out so wrong in her mind it had really left her so flustered for a moment. She quickly came back to as she scratched away those lingering thoughts as she returned back to the conversation at hand. The last thing she wanted to do was appear to be some flustered idiot in front of the guest.<br><br>She nodded a bit at Alyx as he directed his words towards her. She looked at the guest as she crossed her arms a bit before continuing as if by queue. <strong>"We don't currently have a job underway. While continuing on in search of work would be a helpful prospect for us, we wouldn't want to miss an opportunity to provide help to someone who needed it."</strong> She smiled a bit as she purposely left out any mention of being paid. It was a rather unspoken terms of service when it came to such business, and she didn't want to make their guest feel as if she was just some potential dollar sign and nothing more.<strong> "If this spot isn't private enough for you, we could always move the conversation into the captain's quarters. Marina really does make some excellent tea we can sip while continuing to converse about matters at hand."</strong> She spoke to the woman with a smile as she truly meant her comment about the girl's tea. She wasn't to huge of a tea drinker, but when it came to the tea Marina made, she couldn't resist changing her own habits to partake in some.

				Marina bowed politely before walking away to prepare the tea. Once she was in the ships "kitchen" she began the preparations. She took great care to ensure that it would produce the best flavor. while she was at it she began to work on some snacks that wouldn't take long to make. She hummed softly to herself as she did so. the smile on her face as she did so was genuinely content.<br><br>Once things were done she set it all on a special cart and took it back to where the others were "Here you are" she remarked as she poured the tea and then looked at the three "would any of you like milk or sugar...or anything else put into your tea? also i provided some snacks for you"

And unfortunately, needed to excuse themselves from "standing in the lobby" so to speak.<br><br>Sera's way of drinking tea was interesting at the least. It showed how vital her suit was to protect from the outside elements. He could only imagine what it could be like living in a helmet for an entire lifetime.

He tried not to stare and act polite.<br><br>Having already told Lyra and Panacea what to to, he motioned for Shay and Sera to follow, nodding again to Marina in thanks for the tea. Walking away at a somewhat leisurely pace, he started to head towards the CIC, allowing Shay to start her "unofficial" tour.<br><br>Once out of earshot, he gave Sera a somewhat inquiring eye.

				"First, I have to explain how I acquired that data. When I was out of my home fleet, I didn't have much in the way of survival tools. When you are in a situation like that, you'll do anything for money. I used my electronic skills for breaking and entering, then accessing encrypted files for either interested parties, or blackmail. I am not proud of it, but it was the only way I knew to survive. But one day, I accessed some files that I should never have looked at. The information is data logs. However, that data is extremely important. I have them downloaded onto my omni-tool now, but it's nearly cost me my life several times over. I had to flee here just to survive." Sera started wringing her hands, the three fingers on each interlocking, then releasing each other. "The information is a plot that spreads over many systems, but with one goal. They are going to bomb the embassy at a time when all of the galaxy's leaders are gathered for a meeting. If they succeed..."

Not that he wasn't a good Samaritan, if they were to suddenly have to fend off waves of paid trigger-pullers and even endure space battles, the expenditures would take its toll. Weighing several options, he looked up after some careful thought. <br><br>"Okay. The most we can do right now is offer you protection, here.

She gave a glare at Alyx out of distaste for his offering of protection so casually.&nbsp; Even if she had money to pay, it wasn't exactly the smartest job to take if the situation was as dire as she explained it to be. The troubles it could cause were far greater then most potential profits... and with her last words those profits were going to be nothing but extra costs they could barely afford. <br><br>"We aren't exactly some magic cruise line either. We require money to even run, and given your situation your not exactly giving us a job that is 'affordable' . Its not exactly someting some simple services can pay off." She spoke in a partly frustrated tone though avoiding being to cold sounding about it.&nbsp; She wanted to emphasize just what she was asking of them.

				"I am aware that 'simple services' cannot pay for my protection." Sera spoke in a cold tone, crossing her arms. "But your captain asked me on this ship, and offered me protection. I will pay him back in any way I can. Unless you'd rather I just leech off your captain, on your ship?"

				Alyx nodded. "Yeah. Ammo, energy, ship repairs, all that stuff costs money. Just like Shay said. Plus, I don't know how long I can sleep with one eye open." He added the last sentence in half-seriousness.<br><br>He took a few steps, then turned around. "Your species have been living on ships without a homeworld for hundred of years. I've heard good things about technical and physical engineering skills once people look past the "vagrant drifter" thing. Think you can work your magic on this bucket of bolts? Be my guest. Count that as security. You'll still owe us and you'll have to earn our trust one way or another. Just to be on the safe side."<br><br>He folded his arms and leaned back against a bulkhead. "You can do this. I'll give you some time to think it over. Come to me or Shay when you've come to a decision. Sound good to you?"

				"There is no need. I agree to your conditions. I will work on this ship as best as I can. And when necessary, I can get more jobs through...generally unavailable lines." She looked at Alyx, then at Shay. "And I won't ask for any profits until they are affordable. Wouldn't want you to experience what I have. You might not be as fortunate in survival as me."

				Shay let out a soft sigh. It wasn't at all what she was hoping for. While she wasn't one for aiding someone in need, it sure as heck wasn't exactly a condition she liked. Helping them or not, it was a likely chance she might end up getting them into far more danger then she liked. However, she wasn't going to oppose Alyx on the issue. There was a chance they might come up on top without being left short handed. She found herself in a bit more of a relaxed posture. While it wasn't likely a good practice for one so freshly given a space, since the deal was over she wasn't really fond of keeping such an uptight appearance about her. The woman's last words only made her let out a soft sigh as she seemed to react a bit less resistant to her. "Trust me, I've experienced some things... I'd rather not go through again as well." She spoke briefly as she left no space at all for her to go into more detail.&nbsp; "Very well, I'm sure we can find you a room somewhere, given they all weren't converted into side projects for the other crew members." &nbsp;She spoke with a soft chuckle. She didn't mind at all having rooms adjusted to fit the crew members needs, so long as it didn't damage the ship. It was a little entertaining how such a large ship could be converted to her into a much more personal place then it had at one time.

				"I'll get Marina to show you where you can put your things," Alyx looked at Shay in question as in if she needed anything. "I'll tell Lyra to get us moving."<br><br>With that, he started off towards the bridge, leaving Shay with Sera to themselves.<br><br>He didn't want to spend too much time in dock in case they were really IN danger. Shay had is back, but he needed input from her in private later. After things got slightly back to normal. Maybe after their guest got settled down. As of now, leaving spacedock was the highest priority.<br><br>Upon arriving at the cockpit, he overlooked Lyra and Panacea at their stations. "Okay guys, get ready to cast off. Status report?"

				Marina heard Alyx call for her wanting her to show their guest to a room she nodded "Right away Skipper" she joked and then turned to their guest. "Right this way please" she then led the woman down the metal halls. "I apologize now in case something isn't to your liking" she stated trying to hold back a yawn. It wasn't that she was tired in fact she was far from that it's just that she could be rather lazy.<br><br>Soon they arrived at a room that was rather empty "here you are you can rest here" she then walked away smiling to herself.

				Sera stepped into the room, looking around, then sitting on the bed. Not much decoration. But it had a bed. That was all she needed. Laying down, she stretched out her body, staying awake. She was comfortable. But until they left, she was not going to feel safe.

				<div class="floatleft">(http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w223/Mirrahs_echo/Anime%20Women/blackpinup-1.jpg)</div> Lyra had little to do while everyone else was mucking around doing whatnot. To be honest, she really hadn't paid attention to anything that was going on while they'd been docked. She'd simply set to work fixing up the cockpit. There were more glitches in that system than anyone realized, and the fact that no one else seemed to notice made her a little nuts, but she worked through it. The woman was older than everyone else on the ship by several years, and that fact drove her nuts, but it gave some benefits too. For one thing, she wasn't prone to caring about melodrama the way some of them were. Also, feelings didn't matter quite as much -- you did your job, you got paid. That and her pride was about it. <br><br>While everyone was worrying about getting ready to leave, there was Lyra in the cockpit, the music cranked up as she rocked out while working on the underside of one of the consoles. She slid out from underneath it and began to toy with the screen. She made a skeptical face and then reached in and tugged firmly at something and then hit the screen again. She grinned. <br><br>"See, that's all y'needed... a little wiggle room," She chuckled and patted the console. She then rocked out on her air-guitar for a moment like something out of a KISS rock show... but when Alyx would be making his way there, she'd be popping off another piece of paneling from a wall and poking at the wiring. A pilot had to know everything about the ship, so she knew what she was doing for the most part... but a worn wire zapped her a bit and she pulled her hand back, music still loud as she mimed the word 'ow', and shook out her hand to try and get it to stop tingling. She then eyed the wiring again and grabbed some electrical tape and wrapped the bit of exposed wire so she wouldn't get zapped again. <br><br>"There we go... see I knew you were bitchin' 'bout something too," She spoke to the wall and then patted it, forgetting to put the panel back on. As per usual, there were several panels pulled off the walls and ceilings and other consoles... Lyra just conveniently forgetting to put them back.

				Alyx nearly tripped over one of the panels. Lyra certainly had "done" things to the cockpit to some extent, but as long as it ran, he was fine. After all, it was her workspace, not his. Despite having the slight knack for trouble, Panacea was quite orderly to some degree, and how she worked up here with Lyra's little mess mystified him.<br><br>"Lyra, Shay just gassed us up," He came to the edge here the cockpit began, carefully picking his way around wires and panels, leaning against the side of the entryway. "Panacea will get you your course vectors in a second. I think she went to go do something in her room."<br><br>As if on cue, Panacea appeared, still in her t-shirt and jeans. She had left the katana in the room, usually carrying it on the starbase for looks and to ward off trouble. She had opted for this look to fit in on this particular stop, foregoing the gown she usually wore that was customary of most people on her homeworld. She waltzed past Alyx and took the 2nd seat to the right of Lyra, where she operated most of the subsystems, such as communications, scanners and navigation. <br><br>"So, where to Alyx?" Panacea reached over her chair, looking at him with somewhat lazy but trustful eyes.<br><br>"Head to Kordos, Jersey Shore sector. We're meeting a Terran freighter to pick up some cargo containers." Alyx turned to Lyra. "One of you let me know when we get close, all right?"<br><br>Some soft beeps followed. "Course....plotted. Should take us a few hours. I'll let you know how it goes, all right?" Panacea was leaned forward using the console in front of her. "Go check on your new pretty little friend and help her fit in."<br><br>"Thanks." He nodded to Lyra before leaving the cockpit, leaving Lyra with Panacea.<br><br>"And...got your waypoints, just how you like them. Would you like me to get permission for us to undock?" The woman leaned back in her chair, an arm over the back as she looked at Lyra.

				She looked at Alyx blandly and raised an eyebrow as he said they were gassed up and she turned down the music just enough to hear him, "That's nice." She said flatly. As though she was waiting for him to state the significance of why they were gassed up and why he was shooting out orders. She blinked as he continued to talk... and then he seemed to ignore one very key point to this whole thing -- <em>she</em> was the pilot, not Panacea. He had just spent most of his time talking to her flight-assist, and not to her. <br><br><strong>Alyx</strong> wouldn't get to leave the cockpit so easily. Lyra would step in his way and put a hand on his chest, giving him a look. One of those knowing looks, much like a big sister. "You and I have talked about this -- your crew, her ship, MY cockpit. You tell ME where we're goin', not my flight-assist." She didn't even consider the woman a co-pilot. She never had. "Don't go barking orders in my cockpit without telling me what's going on, or I'll ruddy well sit here with the door locked from my side manually until I get a damn good reason, and you know I will!" <br><br>She heard <strong>Panacea</strong> speak and she'd say. "No, I don't, Pan. You keep us docked until the <em>Captain</em> talks to his <em>Pilot</em>." She looked at Alyx and shrugged, "Easy way or hard way, my friend." She said simply. She wasn't in a trench with a gun in her hand firing at mad men, so barking orders at her wasn't going to work, she was tall, brutal, and had the constitution of a bull... or maybe that was simply stubbornness. But if he tried to move around her she would move in his way looking the young man square in the face.

				Alyx sighed. "And I know about that talk. It wasn't like I wasn't talking to you, she just asked." He couldn't help but to think that Panacea asked that intentionally to see the reaction of what would happen.<br><br>"We have to go to the Kordos star system, Jersey Shore sector. It's a job we got, we're carrying fertilizer and hydrocarbons to the Norris outpost colony."&nbsp; Looking at Lyra to let her know that he was talking to her. Hoping that would satisfy her, he waited for the effect of her words, looking at her for the result.<br><br>Panacea snickered quietly. This was the woman's domain, and seeing the interaction just gave her the entertainment for the day. Alyx had fell for her bait hook, line and sinker. However to cast off suspicion, she pretended she had nothing to do with it.<br><br>"All I did was ask to go on the radio...." Panacea muttered with a sigh, folding her hands and turning back to her console. She started to put an earpiece on her head, waiting for Lyra and Alyx to get over their little disagreement.

				She stood there, hands on her hips, listening to his excuse, and just waited, eyebrows raised, expectant. When he started to explain himself, and giving her the details she rolled her eyes. Fertilizer... not her most favorite thing in the 'verse, but she went with it. She frowned when he mentioned the colony. <br><br>"Norris outpost? This legit or are we under the radar?" She had to know so she would be prepared for how to fly. When Panacea gave her comment, she sniped back, "Don't care, don't want to, now hush." Panacea and Lyra had a rocky relationship... but then again, all of Lyra's friendships were rocky. Just how it was. Lyra was like Big Mama on this boat -- keep her happy, and you're all good... a hair crosses one of her triggers and you could end up with anything from a verbal lashing to being dragged across a bar top to having a pistol in your face. Just depends on the trigger. <br><br>She would wait for Alyx's answer, not ready to move out of his way until she was satisfied. But her face looked less angry now, so that was a good sign.

				"Yeah, its legit. Came from the farming co-op on the Norris. Though...." he paushed. "Stay under the radar for now. Shay said our new guest is wanted, so I don't want to take a risk. Do your stuff," Alyx nodded to Lyra in an affirming way.<br><br>Panacea was quiet. She did dislike being the co-pilot, but Shay and Alyx had told her that she needed to do something to earn her keep to stay on board. Having graduated her planet's university for stellar cartography and a minor in ship management. She may not know how to fly the ship expertly, but she knew the neighborhood so to speak and had access to her people's archives for star charts if so needed. So she was silent, just biding her time, waiting for when she would be needed so that she wouldn't cause conflict.

				She raised her eyebrows at Alex like a disapproving older sister, "Didn't I warn you about bringing home strays?" She said calmly and sighed rubbing her jaw in irritation. "Fine. But if we're constantly being hunted because of her, I'll throw her out the air lock, don't think I won't." She said simply pointing at him. "You handle it. Cuz you know I'll have no problem handling it myself, it just won't have the results you want." She said and then moved past him, clapping a hand on his shoulder as she moved to the cockpit. <br><br>"Say 'thank you', Alyx." she said with a smirk on her lips. It was a joke, but at the same time, it wasn't. She was giving him a chance to handle things his way, instead of charging in and handling it like Mama Bear would. And she was getting ready to start up the engine. Both things he should be thankful for. She sat down in the pilots seat, and tilted her cheek up slightly, seeing if he'd take the playful hint.

				"Thank you, Lyra," Alyx replied in response, glad that Lyra was satisfied in his answers. And he knew all well that Lyra would handle anything if it happened. He made a note to send Lyra a message later concerning the origins and predicament of Sera. He knew that she wasn't much of a groupie, so it was his way of letting her know what was going on so she knew how to handle her affairs. Nodding to Lyra in a thankful manner, he slowly turned to leave the cockpit, leaving Lyra and Panacea to do their work.<br><br>"Now is it safe to ask for departure clearance?" Panacea asked Lyra, eyes glancing sideways. Her demeanor had changed upon being scolded, but she still had a job to do. Her right hand was on her headset, pressing it closer to her ear, waiting for Lyra's response.

				She smirked as he repeated the words, but then scowled when he missed the cue to kiss her cheek. She chuckled shortly after though. It was just a little gimmick she did sometimes to embarrass him, but she'd let him get away with it this time. Lyra's fingers were flipping switches as Panacea spoke up to her. The ex-military brunette not entirely paying attention to the woman, or at least seeming to. She then said. <br><br>"Yeah, you might want to do that before I bust through the landing bay doors and cause more damage to the hull of the ship." She said it casually as she revved up the engines and got on the P/A system to the rest of the ship. <br><br>Lyra's voice would sound throughout the ship <strong>"Ladies and gentlemen, if you're standing up, hold onto something or be ready to end up on the floor." </strong> and then it would end, as she continued to go through a systems check while Pan did whatever it was she was doing.

				Panacea nodded, fingers flying across the console. "Zantelle Control, this is Freelancer Frigate Sagittarius requesting clearance for departure."<br><br>"Roger that, Sagittarius, good hunting. Trasmitting vectors now, maintain. .0002 sublight within 10 kilometers of the station. No smaller traffic is out, departure vector is at your own discretion." Panacea allowed the message to be played in the cockpit so that Lyra would hear.<br><br>There was a shudder as the station uncoupled the life support hoses and other umbilicals that was giving fuel and power to the ship. The giant clamps holding the ship in dock released as force fields were powered down and docking bay doors were opened, leaving the Sagittarius free to fly.

				Lyra chuckled as she heard the man's voice. 'Good hunting'? If only! They were nothing but a manure cart right then, so Lyra didn't say anything and just got the ship safely far enough from the docking port and then headed for the doors... rather obviously going faster than what Control had told her she was allowed to do. But well, that was Lyra. Issues with authority and all. She was out the docking bay doors and out into the great wide black. <br><br>"Alright, Pan, unless you want us to end up god knows where I need you to put that path through to me before decide on a random direction." Patience wasn't exactly in Lyra's vocabulary.

				"Jump solution, plotted, feeding into the nav system," Panacea reported, fingers working for a few seconds before relenting. "And...there! Data's accepted. You can go ahead and jump now. ETA two hours and nineteen minutes."<br><br>And for then, her job was about done. As menial and small as it sounded, that was 3/4 of the reason she was useful to this ragtag group. From what her mother would tell her, it'd take a human twice as long to plot a typical jump course on average, according to observational studies. Though, she was sure Lyra never met her mother, a fact that she decided to make note of mentally. Lyra could probably do it just as fast as she could.

				Whether that was the case or not, Lyra was never truly satisfied unless she did it herself. She settled for things, because otherwise she'd be completely alone, but she was of the belief of <em>If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself.</em> She would eye the trajectory and frown. It was a solid trajectory, but she had her qualms about every thing that took them that close to another large spacial body in the mean time. <br><br>"Make that two hours, thirty five..." She said to Pan as she tweaked the flight path. "Alyx wants us under the radar, so I'm just pulling our path out a bit from Zantan III, right here." She pulled it up on the HUD (Heads Up Display) and showed Panacea. "I don't know what kind of sensors they have there, but best to be out of range of all standard and a few above standards." <em>Especially if someone there knows about our Guest.</em> she thought to herself, <em>Alyx, you handle this ASAP, or she's out the airlock, I promise you.</em> She rubbed her jaw as she engaged the slightly adjusted course.

				Panacea shrugged. "Looks good to me. Cops might be out on the outer perimeter, but they usually just sweep the area with fighters, since smaller ships might miss the bigger scanners. So I think we should be fine." She recorded the waypoints and changed them according to Lyra's suggestions. Work done, she looked over her handiwork double checking that that the systems were all right and not malfunctioning.<br><br>Silence fell as Panacea kept to herself looking at various readouts, then stretched her hands above her head. "I've got to use the restroom and grab a drink. I'll be back in a little bit." She started to get up, leaving the cockpit to Lyra, just how it usually was. "Is that okay with you?"

				"I'm aware," She said to Pan's warnings and she just hit the engage button and off they went. She'd already warned everyone to hold onto something, and the ship lurched as they ramped up to speed and off they went. She propped her feet up on the dash and leaned back in her chair. Lyra's legs were long, as they held most of her height in them. <br><br>When Pan spoke up after reading the readouts and then asked to leave the cockpit, Lyra gave a nod. "Yeah, go for it, kiddo." She said and went back to lounging where she was at. They weren't going to hit anything tricky for a good long while. This area was all good and public and controlled. She'd be jumping at shadows if she tried to predict anything out here. So she would kick back, until someone came back to pester her, or she wanted something, or something happened.
