Rain rain go away. Come again another day. This was the tune the usually cheery Twi'lek would be singing on a night like this. Kae'Leigh Tameris loved the rain. She used to love playing in puddles and getting her pants all wet when splashing in them. She missed the days where her child-like nature could come out and not have to worry about who was watching her. Those days were but a memory now.
After a few weeks of joining the Galactic Alliance, the young, blue-skinned woman was looking to make a stand against the injustices in the verse. But she didn't really have the resources to do so. She'd only just signed on and it's not like she had any training or anything. Kae'Leigh could handle herself with a blaster and had proven to be quite good at it when the time was right. She was also starting to learn how to wield a lightsaber. That was taking more practice than she wanted to admit.
She was found by another Twi'lek who keyed in on her Force potential that she hadn't even known about until a few months ago. Apparently it's what kept her out of danger all her life and assisted in her extremely lucky pistol shots when using the aforementioned blaster. Her would-be master took her on a journey to Kashyyyk where they were both blessed with visions from the Life Tree. From then on her life changed forever. Kae'Leigh could no longer act like a child. It was time to grow up.
Technically she still took another month or so to accept this truth, but that was another story. Now she was determined to become a Jedi so she could save those in need and hopefully one day make a difference in someone's life. How she would do that she had no idea! Before she joined she had this grand vision in her head that she'd be out fighting laser sword battles and rescuing puppies from burning buildings. Well, she still ran at the first sound of a siren. It was instinct from all her years as being a slicer. The same skill that was needed today.
Kae'Leigh had not met the person who contacted her. She hadn't even heard from them directly. Word got passed through the grapevine that Kae'Leigh had skills in hacking into networks and the like and apparently someone out there needed her help with just that. The man who contacted Kae'Leigh explained the situation -as best as he was even told- and asked if Kae'Leigh would accept her duty. She of course obliged with no objection. Kae'Leigh picked a meet location and the man would tell his client to look out for a blue Twi'lek. Why did she feel so suddenly vulnerable by that statement? She had zero notion of who this mystery person was and no way to get ahold of them. That's how secrets were kept apparently. The less you know the better.
So why did Kae'Leigh know almost nothing? Perhaps it was for the best.
The place Kae'Leigh had chosen was a small diner overlooking a rail yard. It was well off the beaten path -so to speak- and not frequented often by tourists and such. Only locals and rail yard employees came to eat there. This made it for the perfect place for a drop. It also guaranteed everyone there would remember your face. Kae'Leigh especially wanted this as a measure of security. If anything happened to her, those who'd come looking would be able to find her assailant simply by showing a picture of her.
The other best part about this establishment was that there were only three walls. There was no entrance as the entire wall was open. This would give Kae'Leigh a perfect chance to escape if needed and not get tangled up in any electronic doors that might suddenly become jammed. She'd done that to someone once while running away. But today she wanted to make sure there would be nothing getting in her way if she needed to make a quick exit. She didn't know who to trust and the fact she was meeting as an agent against the Imperium was the most dangerous thing she'd ever done. Being a slicer was bad enough. But one only ended up in jail for a minor crime. The Sith would make sure she never saw the light of day again if she were caught as an Alliance supporter.
If only the air didn't smell so bad....
Kae'Leigh would come and sit in the middle of the small dinner so her back was to the wall and the opening in front of her. Whomever would be coming, Kae'Leigh would have to see them from the moment they walked in. She was wearing one of her favorite outfits which started with a short tank top that ended before her midriff. Over that was a long sleeve coat that had only two buttons in the middle, basically forcing the shirt to look tight and her chest to seem bigger. Her pants and boots were basic leather and had seen some miles. Around her waist was a standard utility belt which doubled as a holster for her R-5 blaster pistol. The lightsaber she'd borrowed from her mentor was stashed safely at home; she wouldn't be bringing that out into public until she knew she could take on the whole Empire single handed.
While she waited for her mystery client to show up she'd order herself a stiff drink to calm her nerves and a bowl of noodles. She promised her mentor not to waste too many of his credits on food. But she made a mental note to tally everything she'd spent while in his care. Perhaps she should get a real job...?
The server droid would bring her the dish of pasta and the blue-skinned Twi'lek would reply kindly, "Thank you very much."
"Will you be needing anything else?" it would ask as programmed to do.
"Not until my partner gets here...."
