The mottled blues swirling in front of Zaylos Kartan normally stirred a peace within him, but today they aroused his anxiety. He'd been employed as a commercial transport for a couple of weeks, and after his dramatic introduction to flight, he'd found his mundane existence a little slice of heaven. It felt good to work for an entity by choice. To be compensated for his effort. What a concept... Today, however, he'd been presented with a unique situation. Instead of moving just goods, he'd been hired to transport a substantial load and it's owner.
Kartan was a decent pilot, but he was still pretty green when it came to the procedures of transporting. The last thing he needed was someone watching over his shoulder making him nervous. He found himself very aware of the half pack of ratty cigarettes in his jacket pocket. He drew a breath in and slowly let it out.
A few days of patchy stubble peppered his jaw, his hair hung in his eyes, he pushed it back and adjusted his flight jacket labeling him a pilot for Kross transporting. He wore a black jumpsuit, under his leather jacket, that tucked into his work boots. on his hip, he wore a service pistol, but it might as well have been for show. Aside from the ultrabasic arms class, all transports were required to take before employment, he'd never used a gun and after he'd seen what they could do first hand Krantan wanted nothing to do with them.
Zaylos emerged from the cockpit headed to his refresher when he nearly ran smack dab into the client, "Oh shi— er, I'm sorry ma'am, please excuse me."
