'Hm, and people wonder why the galaxy is dying... It's because people are corrupt as ever living fuck.'
She thought, giving a decisive mental snort of amusement as she looks around the less than repuatible cantina that she was currently in.
Drugs, credits, sex, corrupt politicians. It was all just a bunch of symptoms caused by one simple thing; Greed. if people wanted something bad enough, they didn't care what they did to get it, or even who they had to hurt to get it. Shaking her head slightly to clear her thoughts, she briefly glances around the cantina, quietly observing all the patrons and the atmosphere in general, while sitting at the bar nursing a tumbler half full of Corellian whiskey.
"Well back to work, I guess..." Comes a soft mutter, putting her glass down on the counter, and pulling out an encrypted datapad. Over the past few days, she had been lying low and making sure to keep herself off the radar while she hunted her current target, considering that he was a rather high ranking figure in the newly formed New Republic.
'And the galaxy is certainly better off without scum like him, that's for sure.' She thought, now frowning as she read through all of the information that she had collected in the past couple weeks. 'Painting himself as a hero that can do no wrong, while working in the shadows dealing drugs and selling women and children into God knows what kind of trades. Just a two faced creep trying to exploit the galaxy as it heals.'
Pausing for a moment, she smiles and gives a small, yet cold laugh.
"Jus drein jus daun."

'What the hell have I gotten myself into this time?'A hooded figure lurked inside the bar and approached the bar. The figure was wearing a slightly ripped see-through tank top, a pair of jeans that were ripped, a dark hooded tunic, and black leather boots as she made her way up to the bar. "I'll have a Corellian whiskey,"she said as she looked at the bartender. The bartender nodded and handed Kayla her glass of whiskey. "Thanks," she said as she sat at the bar with her glass. She examined the room. She could sense something or someone. 'Something is definitely off about this place,'she thought to herself as she sipped on her whiskey. Octavia Bloodraven

Anakin could be seen wondering through the undercity of Coruscant with a bewildered look on his face. The last thing the boy remembered was finishing a fierce battle against creatures that the vong created to specifically kill Jedi called the voxyn before suddenly finding himself here. His siblings and friends were nowhere to be seen which made him worry for their safety. As he continued to make his way through the dark and dirty streets, he couldn't help but notice some people talk about how the rebellion was driving back what remained of the galactic and how they'll finally have a voice in the new government that they restored. This only perplexed the young Jedi as the Yuuzhan Vong invasion was the current threat to the galaxy and to top it off there was something subtly off about the Force. Noticing a large neon sign for a near by cantina, Anakin figured that he could go in and gather information by listening in on conversations and by watching the holonet. Though considering what part of Coruscant he was in, it wouldn't surprise him if he were to hear word of illegal activity. As he made his way closer and closer to the establishment, he felt someone with a strong connection to the Force and noticed that it was aligned with the lightside. What is a Jedi doing here? Shouldn't they be out there helping in the war effort? thought Anakin after going through the doors of the cantina.
After entering the establishment, Anakin took notice on how the patrons belonged to a variety of different species and how they were intermingling with different languages. When his eyes took notice of a hooded figure, he could tell right away that this the was presence he felt in the Force. So he headed over to her and tapped her on the shoulder to get her attention. "Mind if I sit next to you?" asked Anakin.

She gave another small noise of amusement as she quietly watched the two new comers walk into the cantina and sit not too far off from where she was, in fact.
"Amateurs..." She muttered under her breath, before taking another sip of her whiskey.
'They certainly stick out like sore thumbs, that's for sure. No tact at all...' She thought, giving a mental eye roll as well. Shaking her head slightly, she turns her attention back towards the bartender, making a quick gesture of her hand, clearly indicating that she wanted another glass of whiskey.
"Certainly wanna see how this goes..." She smirked into her drink, though still keeping an eye on the two new people in the cantina. It definitely was obvious that the boy was vastly innocent in a lot of ways, though stealth and blending in being the biggest one in her own opinion for sure. The other however, the hooded one; she wasn't too sure as of yet, considering that she hadn't seen who exactly was underneath that hood anyways. Nonetheless, she'd be keeping her eye on them, just to make sure there were no sudden moves, or anything that could potentially screw up her current hunt.Kayla Flax Anakin Solo

The hooded figure remained quiet for a moment to focus on what was going on around her. She could tell the bar was full of drunks and scum-bags. She sipped on her whiskey while continuing to survey her surroundings. She noticed the young woman sitting not too far from where she was sitting and tilted her head to the side when she felt someone tap her on the shoulder and placed her hand on her blaster that was concealed under cloak along with her lightsaber. "Sure, kid, but I'm not responsible if you get drunk," she said as she motioned for the bartender to come their way. "A glass of water for the kid,"she added as the bartender nodded and passed the young boy his drink. "You know this ain't a place for a kid," she said as she took another sip of her whiskey.

"Sounds fine with me" said Anakin as he took a seat next to the Jedi Knight. He would then turn his attention to the holonet screen and sighed as it was only showing a podrace that a good portion of the patrons were paying attention to instead of something like the news. He would then turn over to Kayla as soon as she ordered a drink for him and when the bartender handed him his glass of water, he couldn't help but notice that the glass was very cloudy indicating to him that it wasn't very clean. "I'm not exactly your typical kid" said Anakin as he briefly glanced down to his lightsaber before looking back at her. "This is going to sound odd, but what was the last galaxy wide changing event that you remember?" asked the boy hoping to to get a grasp on why he has been overhearing things about the Rebellion beating back the Empire.

She gave an exasperated sigh and shook her head. ' God, these two are completely naïve, and pretty blind too, honestly.' She thought, before motioning to the bartender.
"Can you send that hooded figure a whiskey tumbler, and send the kid a half glass of Corellian rum." She said, now leaning her forearms on the bar, and keeping the two newcomers in her peripheral vision.
"Now let's see what happens..." She mutters to herself, now rather curious to see what both the hooded figure and the kids next move would be. 'And hopefully it's nothing stupid.' She thought, rolling her eyes slightly again. Kayla FlaxAnakin Solo

Kayla listened to Anakin as he spoke and watched as the bartender brought her a tumbler of whiskey and the kid a half glass of Corellian rum. "Name's Kayla," she replied as she took the tumbler of whiskey and drank it. "I don't think I caught what your name was," she added as she tilted her head to the side for a moment. "To be honest...After the fall of the Republic to the Sith and the Emperor declaring all Jedi an enemy of the Republic," she replied as she sipped on her drink and looked across the room. "Something tells me that we are being watched," she added as she looked up from her drink. "That chick across from us has her eyes on us and I don't like being watched," she added as she hopped up from the bar and made her way over towards where Octavia was at and narrowed her eyes at her. "Thanks for the drink, but if you don't mind quit starring at us with that dagger look," she said as she sat down beside Octavia. Anakin SoloOctavia Bloodraven |

"My name is Anakin Solo" replied Anakin after the bartender brought him half a glass of Corellian rum. Sensing no danger, Anakin took a sip of the alcoholic beverage as he listened to Kayla tell him how the last galactic event she remembered was the fall of the Republic and how the Jedi was declared an enemy to it. The fact that this happened close to 50 years ago for him made his rum go down the wrong pipe causing him to cough involuntarily. As he continued coughing, Kayla mentioned her belief that the two were being watched before leaving to her seat and heading straight towards Octavia. Sensing no malicious intent towards them from the woman who Kayla saw watching them, Anakin followed her and continued to cough along the way with each one being less loud than before. As Kayla told the woman to stop staring at them, Anakin briefly closed his bloodshot eyes and healed his throat with the Force. "I'm sorry about this, but my friend here can get a little paranoid at times when a stranger buys her a drink" said Anakin as he patted Kayla on the shoulder. "Let's just go back to the bar and continue our conversation from where we left off" suggested the boy. Kayla Flax Octavia Bloodraven |

She merely raised an eyebrow at both the young boy, and the young woman (Who had finally decided to reveal herself, voice wise, anyways. Considering that she had yet to take of her hood.) "Hey, not my fault that you two stick out like sore thumbs now, is it?" She replied, now casually putting her datapad away into her utility belt.
Pausing for a moment, another thought comes to mind, causing her to snort in amusement. "And you do know that Jedi aren't overly welcome in here, right?" She added, glancing around the bar, curious to see if any of the other patrons had noticed their two new Jedi arrivals.
"Everyone here is trying to lay low for some reason or another." She said, trailing off for a moment, before speaking again.
"So take my advice, get out of here before something happens that you can't control with those fancy powers or weapons of yours." She finally said, though with some definite coldness tingeing her voice.
'Fucking Jedi...'
