Laine heard their conversation, Laine heard the train hiss and sputter to life before reaching out with the Force towards it. She guided herself in her mind's eyes, moving into the train engine. 'Seeing' that is was outfitted with more galactic technology gave Laine cause to smile, she knew which lever controlled the breaks then. In absolute silence, Laine's masked presence reached out and subtly broke the mechanism that controlled the breaks on the console, broke the mechanism that controlled the train's speed(which would force it to accelerate wildly), and simultaneously, she created a crack in the inner mechanisms of the manual break, so if or when it was pulled, it would snap.
She did this with relative ease, as inside, the Force raged and gave her strength. Once it was done, Laine began attempting to calm herself, focusing upon the words of Della. Every word from Geist ignited fire within her, fire that screamed against what he said. Laine knew she was not a spy, she couldn't be, after all, wouldn't she-
Wouldn't she remember that?
Laine's heart caught in her chest. She did not remember attempting to assassinate anyone, she did not remember killing the one called Atreia, she did not even remember the name of Darth Exilis, who Geist claimed was her father and Della did not deny. Tears of anger welled up in her eyes, yet she resisted the urge to cry and instead refocused on calming herself. If she was calm, she would not expose her cloaked being, but if she angered too much she might accidentally drop it. Della needed to get Geist onto that train, once there, Geist would die, and Della would easily avoid the crash when it went out of control.
She needed to wait, it was almost time to reveal herself.
