Assignment 010605 - Episode Twenty
EPISODE TWENTY:
The group is at the Kuat Passenger Port. Several people are on their way to Bay 11 to see the shuttle that is for sale. The sale price is to cover their passage to Tynna.
Everyone, with the exception of Doon has returned back to the Bay. Ian had pulled Brask aside to have his discussion with him. Whether the discussion was worth while for either is between them.
The next transport to Tynna leaves at 2000 hours, which is ten hours from now. That should give them plenty of time to sell the shuttle and prepare to leave the port. The cost? 3000 Credits for all six of them.
Meanwhile, Naal has been having her own discussions with a dealer on level F. Another dealer is still trying to horn in on the deal, but is having trouble doing it. Not to be out done, he is providing his own brand of trouble on the dealer Doon was told to contact.
%$%$% BEGIN EPISODE TWENTY %$%$%
<Ian_Hawkins> :: stands near the door of Bay 11, waiting for Doon or one of the buyers::
<Brask_Key`far> :: looks around, wondering when the first buyer will arrive, standing near Kahlan in case she wants to move somewhere::
<Naal_Doon> ::heads toward a lift to take her back to the deck that everyone is waiting for her at:: Zyrl: So what's with the other guy trying to hoard in on your deal? You guys always like that?
ACTION:: On Level F, Y'Unyr speaks with someone who nods and runs off quickly. He smiles and rubs his hands before looking over to Zyrl's Bay::
<Zyrl> Doon: Don't worry about him, Deary. He has been after my business for years. I hope this ship of yours is worth my trouble.
<Naal_Doon> ::shrugs:: Zyrl: I hope so too.
<Froll> ::arrives to Bay 11 but hestitates before going inside. Looks around nervously::
<Naal_Doon> ::feels the lift slow down and stop a few after she pushed the button a few minutes ago::
<Naal_Doon> ::exits the lift and beckons Zyrl to follow:: Zyrl: This way.....
<Zyrl> ::follows her, though he knows the port very well already::
<Froll> ::enters the bay and looks up to Ian:: Ian: Are you Brask?
<Ian_Hawkins> ::looks down at the short person:: Froll: No. He's the Bothan over there. :: points::
<Naal_Doon> ::silently counts the numbers on the bay walls as she walks by them, counting her way back to her docking bay::
<Froll> ::nods and walks towards Brask, keeping a nervous eye on Ian as he does::
<Brask_Key`far> :: spots Froll walking in his direction and watches him::
<Froll> ::stops at Brask:: Brask: You are Brask?
<Brask_Key`far> :: nods:: Froll: Yes, that's me. And you are?
<Pward> ::exits a lift and walks briskly towards Bay 11::
<Froll> Brask: I am Froll. You spoke with me via the terminal?
<Pward> ::enters the bay and walks past Ian:: All: Which of you is Brask? :: demanding::
<Brask_Key`far> :: nods:: Froll: Ahh yes. Thank you for coming. :: motions to the shuttle:: Here it is. A very fine vessel.
<Froll> ::looks back and cringes:: Self: Oh no. Not him again.
<Brask_Key`far> :: hears Pward and shouts to him:: Pward: I am! I'll be with you in a moment!
<Pward> Brask: If you want my business, you will attend to me now!
<Froll> Brask: I was here first. Please don't let him see the shuttle. He will cut me out of our deal.
<Ian_Hawkins> ::looks over at the two buyers and smiles::
<Kahlan> ::sits quietly near Brask, taking note of the emotions of the people coming over to look at the shuttle::
<Brask_Key`far> :: frowns, thinking, then nods:: Froll: Yes you are correct, you were here first. :: motions to the shuttle again:: Pward: I'm sorry but you will just have to wait your turn.
<Pward> ::walks up to Froll and stops, looking down at him:: Froll: You have no place here, small one. Leave before you get hurt.
<Brask_Key`far> :: steps quickly between Pward and Froll:: Pward: Now there is no need for that. I will get to you in a moment.
<Naal_Doon> ::enters the bay and sees the few people talking with Brask. Heads over to the shuttle and motions to it with her hand:: Zyrl: Here it is... just as I said....
<Pward> ::looks down to Brask:: Brask: Then you don't want my business or is wasting my time a strategy of yours?
<Zyrl> ::looks at the shuttle:: Doon: Ah, she's in fine shape. Mind if I take a look at it myself?
<Brask_Key`far> :: stands his ground:: Pward: It is not my intention to waste your obviously valuable time, nor is it a strategy. I simply wish to deal with this matter fairly. So please, allow me to do so.
<Kahlan> ::sends some calming pheromones toward the noisy one::
<Naal_Doon> ::shakes her head and leads him inside:: Zyrl: Not at all... come on in...
<Pward> ::looks at the shuttle and nods, then sees Zyrl moving into the shuttle:: Brask: What is HE doing here?
<Brask_Key`far> :: looks back:: Pward: I'm not sure. I was only in contact with the two of you to purchase the shuttle.
<Zyrl> ::enters the shuttle with a grin, hearing Pward but ignoring him::
<Pward> ::feels strangely, but stays his ground though obviously a bit aggitated::
<Froll> ::grins briefly:: Brask: Shall we?
<Naal_Doon> ::lets Zyrl look around in the shuttle:: Zyrl: So what do you think? She's in pretty good shape wouldn't you say?
<Brask_Key`far> :: nods, moving to show Froll the shuttle, pointing out it's specs and features, as well as he knows them::
<Zyrl> Doon: Can you go over the specifications with me once more as we tour her?
<Kahlan> ::smiles at Pward as he stands waiting his turn::
<Pward> ::stands tapping his foot and notices Kahlan looking at him:: Kahlan: What are you looking at, Cripple?
<Naal_Doon> Zyrl: Sure... begins pointing out her main specifications and telling Zyrl all about them::
<Ian_Hawkins> ::raises an eyebrow over Pward's words to Kahlan and strolls that way::
<Kahlan> ::shrugs:: Pward: My name is Kahlan, and I am not a cripple normally. I simply thought you looked as if you could use a friendly smile.
<Pward> Kahlan: I need nothing friendly. ::looks to he shuttle:: This is a waste of my time. I should be on that shuttle.
<Kahlan> Pward: And you will be, very soon. I would take you through her myself, but as you so succintly pointed out, I am not at my physical best today.
<Froll> ::looks over to Zyrl as their paths cross:: Zyrl: Do you mind if I win this once? I really do need it.
<Brask_Key`far> :: hears Froll's comment and looks to Zyrl::
<Zyrl> ::looks over at Froll:: Froll: I am sorry, my little friend, but business is business. Do not take it personal.
<Froll> ::frowns:: Zyrl: Very well. ::looks over to Brask:: Brask: When can we discuss the price?
<Brask_Key`far> :: frowns at Zyrl's words then turns to Froll:: Froll: Whenever you like. However I'm afraid I must show that other person the shuttle before I can sell it to you. To be fair.
<Pward> Kahlan: Don't bother getting up then. I would hate for you to hurt yourself further to go out of your way to satisfy my needs. ::sarcastic::
<Froll> ::frowns even deeper:: Brask: Perhaps I am wasting your time then. There is no way I can go against both of these buyers.
<Kahlan> Pward: Think what you like of me and my politeness sir. I would be happy to help you, really. If I could.
<Kahlan> ::shrugs::
<Brask_Key`far> :: looks at the short man:: Froll: Well I will have a talk with my associate. :: points to Naal:: And see what I can do. But I must show the other person around. Can you wait for a few moments?
<Zyrl> ::continues looking the shuttle over:: Doon: I think this shuttle would be a fine addition to my collection. To sell of course.:: stops and rubs his chin:: What was the price again?
<Froll> ::nods to Brask::
<Brask_Key`far> Froll: Thank you. :: moves back to Pward:: Pward: I'm sorry for your wait, if you'll step this way I will show you the shuttle. :: motions towards the shuttle::
<Naal_Doon> ::gives him a wary look:: Zyrl: As I mentioned, it's 5000 credits.
<Pward> ::sees Brask but not Froll:: Brask: Where is that pip-squeak?
<Brask_Key`far> Pward: He has finished looking the shuttle over. Now if you please. :: motions to the shuttle again::
<Zyrl> ::looks around where he stands:: Doon: Sounds a bit high, but I'm sure we can discuss it. ::winks to her::
<Pward> Brask: This better be good. ::follows him aboard::
<Naal_Doon> ::raises her eyebrow at Zyrl and smirks at Brask:: Brask/Zyrl: Well I don't know... I thought it was quire reasonable... would your friends pay 5000 for her?

Assignment 010605 - Episode Twenty Cont'd.
(continued)
<Brask_Key`far> :: does the tour guide thing a second time, pointing out the various specs, ect.:: Pward: It is a solid shuttle, perfect for it's function.
<Froll> ::waits nervously, seeing Pward moving about with Brask::
<Brask_Key`far> :: waves a hand at Naal:: Doon: Just a moment please. :: continues to show Pward around::
<Pward> ::looks around:: Brask: This shuttle is a bit cramped, but the layout is agreeable. I might have a customer or two for it.
<Brask_Key`far> :: frowns:: Pward: You are not interested in purchasing it yourself? You are a broker?
<Ian_Hawkins> ::walks up to Kahlan and the others:: Kahlan: Is everything ok? ::looks down at her knee:: How's it coming along?
<Pward> ::laughs loudly:: Brask: What do you think these other buyers are?
<Kahlan> Ian: I'm feeling somewhat better, but the more you can rest a thing like this the better. I'll be as good as new before long.
<Brask_Key`far> :: looks at the others:: Pward: Oh, I see. Well as long as your buyers don't take too long, our transport leaves in ten hours.
<Pward> ::looks at Brask as if he is daft:: Brask: You don't understand how this works, do you? ::grins wide::
<Ian_Hawkins> ::nods to her:: Kahlan: You should see if they can give it a bacta bath on the transport.
<Brask_Key`far> Pward: I guess not. I usually fix ships, not sell them. So you are interested then?
<Kahlan> ::nods:: That would speed it up considerably. The pads from my first aid supplies can only do so much. As much as I enjoy being spoiled, I do prefer to be on my feet. ::smiles::
<Pward> ::nods:: Brask: It will do.
<Zyrl> Doon: Should we discuss the transaction outside?
<Froll> ::still waiting and worrying::
<Brask_Key`far> :: nods:: Pward: Alright, well if you will wait while I speak with my associate. :: motions to Naal:: Just a few moments. :: moves to Naal:: Doon: May I speak with you?
<Ian_Hawkins> ::looks to Jennell:: Kahlan: How is she doing? Is she ready to cope with returning to her father?
<Pward> ::nods to Brask and walks over to Froll, after seeing him:: Froll: You still here?
<Naal_Doon> ::holds up her hand:: Zyrl: One moment please.... Brask: Sure... and don't you think that it would be a good idea for one of us to make the sale?
<Kahlan> ::looks over to Jennell and shrugs:: Ian: I don't know. There is nothing I have been able to tell her to make her believe that he is still alive. And there is no way I can predict what the shock of seeing him will do to her.
<Froll> ::looks up to Pward:: Pward: Yes. I hope to purchase this shuttle.
<Brask_Key`far> Naal: Yes, but to whom is what I think we should discuss.
<Ian_Hawkins> Kahlan: Keep trying. You have the tranport time to manage it.
<Zyrl> ::sees the other two talking and grins::
<Kahlan> ::shakes her head:: Ian: I would likely need dozens of transport times. They messed up her mind quite well, and I am a medic, not a psychiatrist.
<Naal_Doon> ::smirks:: Brask: Well, I think we should hold some kind of auction... not to get greedy, but to be fair... these guys all seem to want it and are interested....
<Ian_Hawkins> ::sighs:: Kahlan: Maybe we should have a specialist see her when we return before she meets her father. I'll get a message off to HQ about the matter.
<Brask_Key`far> :: leans towards Naal and holds his hand up so only she can hear:: Doon: Perhaps, but I think we should see what the first buyer will pay before the auction, he was here first afterall.
<Kahlan> ::nods:: Ian: I think that would be best. Anything I try to do simply ends up putting her into vehement denial and I am afraid that if we continue trying we may do more damage.
<Pward> ::laughs:: Froll: Your optimism is amusing. You will not win this time, like all others.
<Naal_Doon> ::nods:: Brask: Of course.... ::smiles:: You do understand how an auction is held don't you?
<Ian_Hawkins> ::nods:: Kahlan: Don't waste your time then. Concentrate on healing yourself.
<Zyrl> ::walks over to the other two:: Froll: Froll, may I have a word with you?
<Brask_Key`far> :: nods:: Naal: Yes, but if the first buyer can offer the price we need we should sell it to him without an auction.
<Kahlan> ::smiles and shrugs:: Ian: Time will heal both of us. Thankfully for me, my wound is the easier of the two to treat.
<Froll> ::looks over to Zyrl, nervously:: Zyrl: Of course. ::walks away with him::
<Brask_Key`far> :: spots Zyrl and Froll leaving and frowns::
<Zyrl> ::after a safe distance from Pward:: Froll: I know how you operate, and I commend you on your persistence. I have an offer for you.
<Froll> ::a bit cautious:: Zyrl: Yes, I am listening.
<Naal_Doon> Brask: I think we should offer them all a fair shot.
<Brask_Key`far> Naal: Why? The other two seem like they are very successful at this, and if the other can meet our price then why bother? We only need enough for the transport costs.
<Zyrl> Froll: I offer you a share of the profit if you put up half of the buying price. They are asking very little for this vessel and I happen to know our profit could be considerable. Plus cutting into Pward's profits would be a big pluss for you. Would it not?
<Froll> ::considers the offer carefully:: Zyrl: What would my share be?
<Zyrl> Froll: A generous thirty percent.
<Froll> ::shakes his head:: Zyrl: No less than forty-five percent, or no deal.
<Zyrl> ::nods:: Froll: Very well. Forty-five percent it is then.
<Froll> ::looks over to Pward and grins briefly::
<Naal_Doon> Brask: Because the more the better... not to mention the fact that you just answered your own question. They're professionals. They'd know the value of this vessel and would be prepared to give us what we want. ::turns to head outside:: Now, I'm going to see what we can get for this ship.. with or without you... the choice is yours....
<Naal_Doon> ::heads outside to the bargainers::
<Zyrl> ::leads the way back to where Pward stands::
<Brask_Key`far> :: frowns and sighs, finding yet another reason to dislike the bulk of the group Pinnacle stuck him with::
<Pward> Both: What were you two talking about over there?
<Zyrl> Pward: It would be stupid for me to say, since we went out of our way to move away from you to talk.
<Naal_Doon> ::turns to look at the buyers:: All: So are you all ready to negotiate?
<Brask_Key`far> :: watches quietly and lets Naal do the talking, since she's the greedy one::
ACTION:: All buyers turn and nod to Doon, waiting for her to start the transaction::
<Naal_Doon> All: Okay, so the asking price is 5000 credits... does anyone have a better offer?
<Brask_Key`far> Naal: You're not going to demand more than five thousand? :: a bit sarcastically::
<Froll> ::looks to Zyrl:: Doon: Five thousand is fine.
<Brask_Key`far> :: frowns:: Self: I knew he would have been able to meet our price.
<Pward> ::scoffs at Froll:: Froll: You are foolish. ::looks to Doon:: Doon: Eight thousand
<Zyrl> ::grins:: Pward: You want this shuttle that badly?
<Pward> Zyrl: Don't try your tricks on me. They may work on this pip-squeak, but not me.
<Naal_Doon> ::looks at Pward with a nod but her expression is unchanged:: Pward: Eight Thousand... ::looks to the other buyers:: All: Anyone else have a better offer?
<Zyrl> :: pats Froll on the shoulder:: Doon: Nine thousand.
<Froll> ::looking nervous but grins half-heartedly anyway::
<Pward> ::sees the two are working together and frowns:: Doon: Ten thousand!
<Brask_Key`far> :: sighs and rolls his eyes::
<Naal_Doon> ::nods at Zyrl:: Zyrl: Nine.... ::looks back at Pward::... Ten....
ACTION:: The bay door opens and officers walk in with an aire of authority::

Assignment 010605 - Episode Twenty Cont'd.
(continued)
<Pward> ::grins at the two::
<Froll> ::looks to Zyrl and shakes his head::
<Zyrl> ::nods and raises his hand:: Doon: Thirteen thousand
<Froll> ::gasps::
<Naal_Doon> Zyrl: Thirteen... ::looks at the others, her expression still unchanging::... do I hear 14 or higher?
<Pward> ::growls at Zyrl:: Doon: Fifteen thousand!!
<Officer> ::walks up to Ian and the group:: All: Have you seen this person? ::holds up a hologram of Zyrl::
<Naal_Doon> ::nods at Pward, then at Zyrl:: Zyrl: You wanna top that?
<Y'Unyr>::steps inside Bay 11's door and waits there::
<Zyrl> ::looks down at Froll:: Froll: I hope you have enough credits for this. ::look to Doon:: Doon: Sixteen Thousand.
<Brask_Key`far> :: hears Zyrl and looks at Froll::
<Ian_Hawkins> ::looks to the others not saying a word::
<Froll> ::rolls his eyes and is visibly sweating now::
<Kahlan> ::looks at Ian, wondering if he plans to say anything::
<Naal_Doon> ::gives Froll an odd look, then looks at Pward expectantly::
<Ian_Hawkins> ::nods to the officer, not wanting trouble:: Officer: He is aboard the shuttle. Why do you want him?
<Officer> Ian: Thank you. Don't bother about our reasons. ::motions for two of his men to go aboard::
<Pward> ::angrily:: Doon: Twenty thousand!
<Zyrl> ::laughs:: Doon: Twenty-...::sees the officers and stops in mid-bid::
<Naal_Doon> ::nods at Pward and sees the officers::
<Officers> Zyrl: Zyrl. You are under arrest. Come with us. ::sees his hand on Froll's shoulder:: Froll: You too.
<Naal_Doon> Officers: Can I help you?
<Officers> Doon: Don't interfere.
<Brask_Key`far> :: hears the officers and moves away from the wall he was standing next to and frowns:: Officer: On what charge?
<Pward> ::smiles:: Zyrl: I knew your dealings woul catch up to you.
<Naal_Doon> ::shrugs:: Officers: Sorry... ::looks to Pward then back at Zyrl::
<Officers> ::: level their weapons on the two and push them along:: Brask: We said not to interfere. ::heads out::
<Zyrl> Officers: Look, I don't know what this is about. I'm sure it's a misunderstanding.
<Naal_Doon> ::is still curious, but remains quiet::
<Brask_Key`far> :: follows the officers:: Officers: Respectfully, I believe you are making a mistake. I do not think that those two are both guilty.
ACTION:: Zyrl and Froll are led out and joined by the remaining officers, and led out. Y'Unyr has stepped outside before they could see him::
<Naal_Doon> Brask: Stay out of it Brask. You have no idea what they're being arrested for...
<Ian_Hawkins> ::stops Brask:: Brask: Let them do their job. They will find the truth one way or another.
<Pward> Doon: I win by default. Let's finish this.
<Brask_Key`far> :: watches the officers leave and turns to Naal:: Doon: I have some idea. I think they came for Zyrl and Froll is going to take some of the blame. Unjustly. If you had just let me sell it to him. :: frowns::
<Naal_Doon> ::nods and ignores Brask:: Pward: Sounds good to me. Looks like you win... ::smiles and holds out her hand:: congratulations...
<Pward> Doon: Where would you like me to send the eight thousand credits? :: pulls out a data pad::
<Naal_Doon> :: blinks:: Pward: Eight Thousand? I believe the bidding stopped at 20
<Brask_Key`far> :: hears Pward and almost laughs::
<Pward> Doon: I was bidding against criminals. Their bids should be null and void. Be lucky that I don't give you just your asking price.
<Brask_Key`far> :: waits for Naal to explode::
<Naal_Doon> ::smiles:: Pward: Very well then... that seems fair enough... eight it is... We need the credits in our hands to pay for the next transport. Within the hour would be good.
<Naal_Doon> Pward: A credit chit would be fine for such a large sum
<Brask_Key`far> :: raises his eyebrows, surprised Naal didn't fight for the twenty thousand::
<Pward> ::frowns:: Doon: What?! ::turns to Brask:: Brask: You said nothing of delivering credits to you.
<Brask_Key`far> Pward: You are incorrect, I did indeed mention that.
<Ian_Hawkins> ::watches the door close as the last officer leaves:: Kahlan: I wonder what that was about. ::shrugs:: Not our problem.
<Kahlan> ::shrugs:: Ian: Right. But I hope it was justified all the same.
<Pward> ::growls:: Both: Fine. :: pulls out a credit chit and pushes it into the data pad slot, then taps on the data pad to transfer the amount:: I hope a chit is good enough.
<Ian_Hawkins> ::shrugs again:: Kahlan: If it is or not, it's up to them to determine that. We have our job and they have theirs.
<Naal_Doon> ::nods and holds out her hand for the chit:: Pward: It will be fine...
<Kahlan> ::nods:: Ian: I know.
<Pward> ::yanks the chit out and holds it out for either of them to take:: Both: I want everyone out of the bay as soon as possible.
<Naal_Doon> ::shrugs:: Pward: Sure... ::goes to the c0ckpit to get her stuff:: Brask: Tell the others to come get their things off this man's ship, please....
<Brask_Key`far> :: nods at Pward then exits the shuttle, after taking the chit, moving to the others:: All: The customer would like us to leave the bay now that he has purchased the shuttle. We should get our belongings off of it. :: turns to Kahlan and picks her up again, before waiting on everyone else::
<Ian_Hawkins> ::nods and motions for everyone to pack up:: All: Meet directly outside the bay door, when done here.
<Kahlan> Brask: And you intend to carry me, and both of our belongings? ::laughs::
<Naal_Doon> ::gathers her things and heads out of the shuttle:: Pward: Pleasure doing business with you.... ::continues down the ramp and out into the bay toward the bay exit::
<Ian_Hawkins> ::walks aboard to make a pass through to make sure nothing of value is left behind:: Brask: I want a memory wipe for the shuttle computer.

(continued)
<Brask_Key`far> Kahlan: I don't have anything on the shuttle, there was nothing on the Republic ship I needed. But yes, I can manage if you have something else. :: smiles::
<Pward> :: paces back and forth, growling at each of them as they pass him::
<Brask_Key`far> :: hears Ian and nods, moving inside and to the console, sitting Kahlan down in the pilot's seat before turing to the console and starting a memory wipe::
<Kahlan> Brask: All I have is a small first aid kit stored in the back. We can stop for it on the way out.
<Ian_Hawkins> ::shoulders his blaster rifle and heads off the shuttle, following Keyan who has done the same::
<Pward> :: begins getting impatient, but knows he shouldn't be... but is anyway::
<Brask_Key`far> :: nods at Kahlan and continues the wipe, making sure it gets everything before shutting it back down and picking Kahlan up again:: Kahlan: Just a first aid kit? :: moves to the back so that she can get it::
<Ian_Hawkins> ::exits the bay and holds the door for the others::
<Naal_Doon> ::waits at the bay doors for the others, the credit chit firmly in her hand::
<Kahlan> ::opens a storage compartment and takes out her kit:: Brask: That's all. I'm ready to get out of the man's ship now. From what I saw of him earlier, he is not a patient man.
<Pward> ::watches for Brask and Kahlan to leave:: Kahlan: Let's go Cripple!
<Brask_Key`far> :: nods, carrying Kahlan out of the shuttle and then the bay::
<Kahlan> ::smiles at Pward as they leave the shuttle:: Pward: I am only as fast as my transportation.
<Ian_Hawkins> ::sees that everyone is out of the bay and lets the door close:: Keyan: Lead the way, Dargan. ::grabs Jennell's arm gently and walks with her:: Brask/Doon: I take it we got our price?
<Brask_Key`far> :: holds up the chit and nods, before slipping it into one of his pockets::
ACTION:: Keyan leads the way to the ticket booth for the transport they need to take::
<Ian_Hawkins> ::nods to Brask:: Brask: You did check the chit, right?
<Naal_Doon> ::smiles and looks at Brask, then back at Ian:: Hawkins: Yeah... I even got us a bit extra....
<Ian_Hawkins> Doon: Oh?
<Naal_Doon> ::smiles:: Hawkins: Yep
<Brask_Key`far> Ian: Check it for what?
<Ian_Hawkins> ::shakes his head:: Doon: I'm not even going to ask. ::looks to Brask:: Brask: Check it to be sure the correct amount was put on it if anything at all.
<Brask_Key`far> Ian: Oh, no. :: takes the chit back out and hands it to Ian::
<Naal_Doon> ::looks at Brask, her expression becoming stern::
<Ian_Hawkins> ::frowns as he takes the chit. lets his hand off of Jennell to take out a data pad and inserts it to check it.::
<Naal_Doon> ::watches Ian::
<Ian_Hawkins> ::looks at the readout:: Doon: How much did you get?
<Naal_Doon> ::frowns:: Ian: What did it say?
<Ian_Hawkins> ::shrugs:: Doon: It's a thousand more than we need. A good buffer to have.
<Brask_Key`far> :: hears Ian and nods::
<Naal_Doon> ::frowns deeply:: Ian: What????
<Ian_Hawkins> ::holds the pad for her to look herself:: Doon: Have a look.
<Naal_Doon> ::looks at the padd and drops her gear, instantly grabbing her blaster and shoving the padd into Ian's hand again:: Ian/Brask: Why
that no good cheating so of a womp rat!...::storms into the bay again, with her blaster drawn::

<Naal_Doon> ::runs into the bay and stops. Her blaster at her side as she rounds on Brask:: Brask: This is all YOUR fault you walking furball! If you had checked that chit the minute he gave it to you, we'd have our money! ::walks up to him and slams her fists to his chest in her fury before storming off, muttering obescenities loudly in Clawdite::
<Brask_Key`far> :: stands his ground through her tyrade, then shrugs and follows her back to the others, still smiling::
<Naal_Doon> ::walks quickly out of the bay and back to collect her things, snatching them up as she goes... now silent::
