"Where were these slaves headed?" She said, her voice husky and dark. Her hand wrapped tightly around the Zabrak man's neck while her pistol was pointed at the other. The man in her grasp was gasping and clawing the air - unable to escape or breathe. The other man, looking fearful, didn't speak, simply muttering softly, worried his companion would be killed.
"P-p-p-put the gun down, miss, this can all be handled diplomatically? Right?" the man said, still looking down the barrel of the gun. Lucia didn't turn her head even an inch, still looking directly into the gasping man's eyes, though all he could see was the angular helmet she wore - the glow of white lights where eyes would be staring back at him. Without speaking a word, she fired the pistol into the Togruta, not even dignifying him with an answer or a look.
She pressed the barrel of the gun to the head of the Zabrak, relinquishing her grip around his throat so he could speak. "I won't repeat myself. Answer my question, or you'll end up like the rubbish over there." The Zabrak cowered underneath her presence, nodding rapidly at her statement. "F-fine, they were being taken to Mustafar - a shipment for some Sith, I don't know his name. We got the job on Nar Shadaa." Still the barrel pressed against the fearful man's head. "And where did the slaves come from?" She asked, voice unchanging. The Zabrak cleared his throat, his body shaking with terror. "We just picked them up in Hutt space - Nar Shadaa and Toydaria are where we got them. No clue where they're each actually from."
Lucia was displeased. "Thank you for your cooperation. Put these on." She handed the man a pair of electro-handcuffs, urging him to put them on. "Put them on and get in the cargo bay with the people you were trafficking." The man was bewildered. She didn't kill him? But, she killed his partner. "You didn't act cute, or attempt to dodge the issue - therefore, I let you live. Rules are rules."
After insuring that the man had indeed cuffed himself and gone into the back with the others, Lucia took a seat in the pilot's chair, setting course for a neutral space port, and a friendly place for herself - Bakura. The planet was home to the Judges, her organization - a (currently) regional group of former bounty hunters, Sith, and Jedi, who see the destruction the war is causing in the galaxy, and believe it their divine right to install order and peace, by whatever means necessary.
Some time later. . . .
Location: Unnamed Cantina, Bakura
Having arrived on Bakura safely, and turning over the slaver and his ship to the local government in exchange for credits, as well as ensuring the slaves were freed and dealt with, Lucia headed straight for the cantina. She never did know the name of the place, nor did it really even have one, but she knew it was the best place around to have a drink and unwind without fear of getting hassled by overzealous men or enemies.
"Barkeep," she said, placing her helmet on the bar top and sitting on the stool. Her medium length blonde hair tumbled down the side of her face as she undid the bun that kept it contained within her helmet. "The usual, please." A glass of whiskey, on the rocks. It helped keep her relaxed after any mission. She always loved the burning sensation she felt as the liquid slid down her throat. It felt good - curiously relaxing. She hoped to avoid any useless conversation, or being hit-on by some scoundrel, but anything could happen - even in neutral space, even on Bakura.
