Ever since Horuz, things hadn't been the same. Heather literally saw the galaxy different, just like herself and she had gotten a lot more cautious. Her wounds had healed and she had slowly begun to process the terrible events and series of near-death experiences that had served as an eye opener and while Raxus as the Imperial capital was flourishing, her mental health surely wasn't.
Ever since her return, the diplomat had tried to keep herself busy and her mind focused on work, however, she had been sent to Raxus to recover for a few days. She had toyed with the idea of taking a little break on a different system, yet had been way too afraid to leave the safety of the capital as the trauma still ran deep.
She had been trained in basic self-defense, yet on Horuz she had frozen up more often than anything. Why? Oh because she had never been in such a precarious situation before. Still, she felt terrible that she had repeatedly broken down like she had and that without the agent on her side she wouldn't have lived to see another sunset...
Right now, the sun was setting and Heather was on her way back from the store. All she had needed were some groceries, yet even on her way back from the store which led her through some slightly dim lit alleys had made her incredibly nervous. It was as if danger waited behind every corner and she simply couldn't shake this feeling for now, which made her realize that she needed to confront those issues asap.
She hadn't left the house without a blaster, yet the first thing she did was when she entered her apartment again was to lock the door and place it down on the drawer. She then carried her bags towards the counter of the kitchen before she quickly washed her hands in the sink. She had planned to cook tonight, yet needed a little break first and hence decided to take a little breather on the couch, but as she moved into the living room, her heart just jumped.
A shriek escaped her as her blue gaze suddenly fell upon the tall figure sitting on her couch. Her heartbeat immediately began to speed as her stomach seemingly turnt itself upside down as she stared at the intruder in blank horror. Was she hallucinating now as well?! Maybe her distressed mind played a mean trick on her, but before she could turn, a realization hit her. "A-Agent Q'orr?!"
