A light evening breeze blew through Lothal City, rustling through Haela's fire-colored hair as the bounty hunter sat on their hovering G0-BL1N glider amongst some of the shorter of Capitol City's many spires. The setting sun reflected off of the city's white towers, a sharp contrast to the Tiefling's dark ashen skin but a complement to their piercing yellow eyes. Macro-binoculars zoomed in on the entrance to a local dive bar, the Drunken Loth-rat, watching as patrons walked in and stumbled out. There was a twinge of electricity in the air, that unmistakable feeling of closing in on one's prey; a feeling Haela drank in with deep, measured breaths as they watched for their target.
Soon enough, a Rodian wearing a faded leather pilot's helmet with a blue and white flight suit emerged. The Tiefling refocused the binoculars on his hand, identifying the black star-shaped tatoo that confirmed this was their target. Solee Ply. A former spicerunner for one of the Hutt clans who'd gotten a too greedy and begun selling his cargo to a competitor in a poorly hidden attempt to double-dip on his payments. $10,000 credits dead or alive wasn't anything special, but work was slow and Haela had already been in the area. Their dad needed a new medicine too. If anyone ever put a bounty out on the CEOs of some of these pharmecutical companies with obscene drug prices, they'd be the first to sign up.
As the over-eager Rodian made his way down the street, the moment for stalking drew to a close as an engagement drew near. Haela stood, securely snapping their boots into the magnetized clamps of the glider before clicking a button on their gauntlet and letting the glider drop out of hover mode. After a few exhilirating seconds of free-falling the bounty hunter leaned forward to accelerate, the glider zooming in the direction of their target. After a minute they'd reached the same street Solee walked on, causing the Rodian to turn and notice them. It seemed from a distance that he let out a little shriek, beginning to run as fast as he could away from the approaching Tiefling. Haela took a deep breath, savoring the moment. It was so much more enticing when they ran.
As they leaned forward once again to engage in the pursuit, EE-3 blaster drawn and set to stun, a familiar feeling tapped at the back of their mind like that of a water droplet rippling through a previously undisturbed pond. Their Sense. It only came when something was about to happen, so Haela made sure to remain alert while following Solee and not letting the Rodian escape their line of sight. Unfortunatley, the tight crowds were making it difficult to close in on their target from above; they'd have to resort to tracking the panicked criminal until and opening presented itself.
