"For Kriff sake get out of the way" the fiery haired spacer grumbled under her breath as she made a sudden lunge over to the side, so not to come crashing into a hapless local as they pottered about doing their daily hum drum wandering within the local streets. The closing gap between her and the fleeing assassin had in that moment grown by a few more seconds, which wasn't too bad in some respects - but when you were already on the back foot and running full tilt to make up for lost ground was cause enough for frustration to start growing.

For a brief moment she had caught sight of the brunette that was fleeing the residential block, but with the sudden and unexpected road block that the ambling locals had thrown in her path - any sight of the female assassin had been lost. Back to having to resort to tracking the assailant's presence in the force, Eisa grimaced as she rounded on a rather packed looking market street, it was getting far too crowded for her liking and if she ended up colliding with the locals here then it would be enough to throw her off the scent and loose the assassin - and that would certainly throw a spanner into the works, with what she would presume to be a lead going cold. Something that she would reckon her current employer would not be best pleased with.

Her emerald hued gaze narrowed as she looked upwards away from the street ahead of her and up towards the various lean to type roofs that covered the various shop fronts, a wide grin crossing the fiery haired spacer's features as a moment of inspiration flashed through her mind - crowd can't slow me down if they're not in the way Eisa concluded, before turning her attention towards a stack of crates nestled up against a wall, digging deep and pulling a bit more energy from the force, the spacer sprinted head long towards the crates, before suddenly bounding up off the ground and landing on top of the crate, before carrying the momentum with her and hopping up onto the nearest shop front roof.

Now the path ahead was clear with the only thing to worry about was vaulting over the gaps between the various roofs, but at least that was more manageable than having to duck and weave in between the aimless movements of the locals. With her cleared up path, the spacer was able to close the gap on the fleeing assassin, making up the for lost seconds once again until she could see the brunette female up ahead.

As she closed in from the roofs above, Eisa narrowed her gaze as she tracked the Assassin's movements like a hawk, watching as Lornica manoeuvred through the crowds as well as the movements of the crowd itself, looking to try and capitalise on her moment to attempt to apprehend the assassin without inadvertently putting the local populace into harms way. From what she could see the opportune moment was looking like it would be a little further ahead, the crowd was thinning out as the stretch of shops was starting to wane - in a way it was a good thing as the amount of roofs to sprint along was starting to run out.

As the last of the stretch of roof tops swiftly approached the end of the run, now was as good a time as any. With a deep breath and her attention focused on Lornica, Eisa sprang off the roof down towards the street below. With a heavy thud and a groan, the fiery haired spacer came crashing down on top of the fleeing assassin, the weight of the spacer knocking the brunette off of her feet and sent her tumbling onto the ground, winding her long enough for Eisa to recover and quickly pounce onto the assassin, throwing a left hook with her cybernetic arm to knock Lornica out.

With the Assassin incapacitated, the fiery haired spacer, got to her feet. Unfastening and removing a belt before proceeding to improvise a set of bindings to restrict the unconscious woman's movements should she come round any time soon. Once she was satisfied that Lornica was sufficiently hogtied, Eisa reached up to the communicator that Lorcan had issued her with earlier. ## I've caught that Assassin bird, she's a little unconscious but she'll be alright, where do you want me to take her? ## The fiery haired spacer's voice rang out over the comm channel to the other's ear pieces.

Force and Gods and Fracking WHISKEY.

His head was spinning and his body felt both hot and cold at the same time. Movement wasn't really a good bet either but it still got done he supposed. Grunting wetly through the blood, he stared at the person Doc had bullied into keeping up the pressure.

"Keep it tighter... don't want her pissed when she gets back... do you?"


That got the pressure increased.

Meant with each beat of his heart less blood ended up outside and more arrived in his head. It cleared it slightly after a few moments. Enough to realize that their other ally was talking on the com line.

Asking what to do with Lornica.

"Get her awake..."
he broadcast quietly, "If she can talk all the better. She might also... tell us the code to disarm the traps."

He groaned.

"It's what we used to do."

It didn't take long for her to reach Lornica's floor; to find what they needed, perhaps, would be less of a confession and more of a murder weapon to figure out. But if the woman was crafty enough to use illusions to trap them all into nearly killing Lorcan, who knew what else the woman was capable of.

Murdering an entire building perhaps wouldn't be too far from the mark.

Making her way down the hall, she gripped her stun blaster tightly in one hand. Red blood still stained her palms.

No. Don't think about it. You may be a physician, but you treated him and he's stable. Now do as ordered, and focus.

Her other hand remained free. Sure enough, near the elevator, a partially opened door.

But something didn't feel right...

Sliding down the edge of the doorway, she nudged it open with her foot.

Almost as soon as the door was open, three blaster shots rang out, at perfect chest height.

The room was rigged. Who knew how many other traps the fugitive had? Panting, she slowly inched her way in, breath held.

Who knew what other traps would be in the room? No time to waste, she stood and inched around the doorway. On the other side of the room, a sensor jerry-rigged to a blaster aimed at the door. It seemed it would only trigger when the door would swing open or shut, best to avoid it for the time being.

She began searching the room slowly, methodically, keeping an ear and eye out for traps or evidence.

Who knew, perhaps the Force might finally bless her...

The instruction from Lorcan seemed clear enough, get the unconscious assassin awake then get her talking. Pursing her lips in thought the fiery haired spacer looked over the hog tied female as she lay unconscious face down on the cold duracrete floor - just how the Kriff was she to get an Assassin to talk? The Jedi didn't really teach much about interrogation techniques, something about it not being the Jedi way as well as there being the usual hint of it going down the route of the darkside or some nonsense.

But the situation in front of her, had the pressing matter that there were traps that needed to be dealt with. Looking down towards the assassin, Eisa sighed as she closed her eyes and channeled the Force through her, focusing it and wrapping it around the Assassin and lifting her bound body into the air and tightly wrapping the Force around the woman.

Stepping forward, the Spacer manipulated the Force so that it attempted to probe into the assassins mind, looking to try and at least influence and stir the woman's mind in its unconscious state - figuring that there was perhaps some merit behind attempting a Jedi Mind trick on an unconscious and unguarded mind, making them more suggestible to the Forces influence.

That and having the Assassin awake, would likely make it difficult to extract any form of information from the woman.

Narrowing her gaze as she studied the assassin's features, looking for the slightest twitch or sign of activity as the former jedi continued to poke and probe the woman's mind with the Force. "You will tell me code to disarm the traps" Eisa spoke as she noted a slight twitch of the Assassin's lip, before tutting in thought as no response came. Sighing a little the fiery haired space continued to press on, as if she was attempting to pick a lock looking for the faintest indicator that the Force was poking the right parts of the woman's mind.

Applying a bit more pressure, and exerting more of her will upon the Assassin, Eisa repeated her instruction. This time in a more forceful and assertive tone, as she placed the palm of her hand atop the forehead of the Assassin. A wry grin creeping on her lips as Lornica lucidly spoke out a series of numbers and letters, pleasantly pleased with herself she couldn't help but let our an excitable squee in response to her achievement. "Bah didn't need them lectures after all" Eisa muttered to herself as she eased the Force out of the woman's mind, before reaching back up to her comm link. #The code is CPE1704TKS# the Spacers voice rang out over the comm link, before followed by a moment of silence as she looked back towards the captured suspect, comtemplating what to do with her now. #Gonna start making way back with this Assassin bird, just need to find a crate big enough to stuff her into first, don't think it'll look smart walking about with some hog tied bint slung over my shoulder#
