It was an early morning, and Khelsea had just finished breakfast with her brother before he headed out on a business trip. On top of his regular job as a commercial pilot, he had now taken on a minor role in the family business. Khelsea was happy for her older brother, despite their competitive rivalry to outdo each other. It was more like her having to catch up to him all the time anyway, but she knew it was good to have a rival and a goal to work towards. She knew her family was being lenient with her current membership as part of the Jedi Order. It was what they considered to be 'rebellious antics', but they were open-minded enough and not fond of the Sith at all. They were just protective of their youngest child, preferring her to either work in the family business or find a stable job on Naboo. She definitely had the education and credentials to do so. She offered her side of the argument, which included the possibility of fighting back against the empire and being part of radical change in the galaxy. But they were skeptical of her involvement and that statement only increased their worry about the likelihood of personal harm coming to their daughter. However, she argued that at the very least, she was improving herself and learning new skills, promising to stay out of dangerous situations although everyone knew that was unlikely. All they could do were respect her wishes, knowing that she was responsible and strong-willed. The family conversation happened months ago, and in the end they had reluctantly allowed her to go and train as a Jedi. They even went as far as covering for her while she was off-world, with the excuse that she was traveling or on vacation.
Not having much to do until a couple hours later, Khelsea walked around the spaceport hoping to run into someone she knew since she had a few friends who worked at the location. If they weren't available then Khelsea would just marvel over fancy ships, a hobby she was extremely fond of. Her family was well-off enough to buy her almost anything she wanted, but in the end she decided it wouldn't be right to accept their financial aid if she was not going to follow the career path they wished for her. Since officially joining the Jedi, Khelsea decided that she would earn everything she had, and prove to her parents and older brother she didn't choose the wrong path and one day make them proud. As far as a personal vessel, she hoped to obtain her own one day. However, she stuck with her promise and thus had yet to earn enough credits to even buy a cheaper model. Besides, being part of an upper-class family, she would settle for nothing less than mid-range to higher models which required extra funds.
Not running into anybody she knew and seeing nothing that caught her eye, Khelsea headed to the next section of the hangars. A small and funky looking ship got her attention for a moment, but after deciding that it was nothing more than a pile of junk, she continued walking and turned the corner, headed towards another section.
