Nameless Spaceport, Shaum Hii
The Kian'thar guard, dressed in armor that clashed spectacularly with his pinkish skin, moved through the spaceport, sat next to the Sith acolyte as they waited for the third member of their party to arrive. Once she was here they were going to be put on a speeder that would take them to a nearby settlement. After repeated complaints from the locals regarding murders and disappearances, the Kian'thar authorities had reached out to the Sith for help. The Empire, thinking such actions might pave the way for Shaum Hii ultimately joining join the Empire but not warranting expending critical resources, had dispatched two young Sith to deal with the matter.
Alia, being nearby, had arrived before her Champion partner, and instead of being allowed to explore the spaceport, had been instructed to sit and wait for her "supervisor" to arrive. She hadn't been pleased with that, being treated like a child just because she was still an acolyte. Irritated and bored, she began coming up with ways to entertaining herself. By playing tricks on her chaperone. Having sat quietly for a few minutes, she reached across with her tail and tapped the guard on the shoulder away from her, trying to play the innocent when he turned and found no one there. The Kian'thar were empaths, so she had turned it into a game. So far she was breaking even on being able to mask her emotions enough to not give herself away, but this time she failed, as he immediately snapped his head towards her and gave her a glare that would be much more threatening if she not for his clothes.
With that attempt failed, she started thinking of the next trick, all the while waiting for her partner to arrive.
