Ra'ya has just arrived on Abregado-Rae almost one standard hour before. She's never been there before, but she'd received the planet's coordinates from a client that told her she'd might get lucky with some work there.
It had been slow on Nal Hutta. Maybe some new ground would do good.
She's now walking down the streets in the city she's landed in. Taking in the area, so she can find her way back to her ship. Getting lost in a place she didn't know that much about wouldn't be the best idea.

"Psst!" A low voice is apparently calling out for someone - her, possibly? The sound seems to be coming from a little alley between two buildings.

Ra'ya stops as she hears the sound. She looks around, mostly down the alley between two buildings that are closest. Looking for the source of the sound, with a hand on her blaster.

"Over her, little girl" The voice is low, but there is no doubt about who the being is adressing. Ra'ya.
"Come over here..." The voice is coming from the alley straight ahead of her.

Ra'ya's irritated by the voice calling her a little girl. She takes a look down the alley and now draws her blaster. Holding it down, so it's facing the ground, as she steps slowly into the alley.
"Who's there?" It can be heard in her voice that she's irritated.

As Ra'ya enters the alley, she'll see a human male standing in the shadows. He's quite tall for a human, and has dark, almost black skin and a bald head. Several tattoos cover his head, neck and bare shoulders. Standing a few steps away from him is a Barabel.
"Hello there, little girl. Rumour has it you're looking for work..."

Ra'ya takes a good look at him.
"Wow, news travels fast around here. I've only just arrived."
Her grasp in her blaster tightens, but isn't pointed towards the stranger.
"Who are you?"

"Who says news travel around here? I happen to have contacts elsewhere too..." The dark man smiles grinningly at Ra'ya. He's currently leaning casually against the wall, but now pushes himself off against it, standing in his full height looking at Ra'ya.
"I, little girl, is someone who need someone to fly something for me..."

"Oh yeah?" Ra'ya raises an eyebrow, definately interested in the job, but when it's sbout the guy himself, she doesn't like him. On another level, she needs the cash.
"What kind of cargo are we talking about?"

"NOthing you need to worry about" The man looks at her, smiling. His teeth seem very bright compared to his dark skin.
"You want work or not?"

Ra'ya laughs a little, and meets his eyes.
"Yes, I do. But I would still want to know some details about the cargo. You'd never know, whether you're bringing something that can blow ones ship up. And that is certainly not what I want to happen with my ship."

"Do not worry. This cargo will not blow up" The Barabel steps closer - maybe to look threatening?
"It's quite undangerous cargo. Doesn't even weigh much..."

Ra'ya doesn't flinch a bid, on his apparent attempt to look threatening. She thinks about it for a moment, without changing the expression on her face.
"Fine. I'll do it. Now I just need to know what you want to pay, the conditions and, of course, where to go?"

The tall man nods slowly.
"I need you to leave for Coruscant immediately. There'll you'll be met by my contact...and get half your payment" He bares his white teeth in a smile.

If her eyes could shoot with lightnings, it would happen at that moment. Ra'ya's mood changes from irritated to angry by the mention of Coruscant.
"Yeah well." She says a little more tense than the situation should invite. "My prize just went up. Unless you are willing to pay a great deal of money, then you have to find another pilot. Flying to Coruscant is not usually what I do willingly, unless I'm paid well."
She smiles faintly. "So if the package is that valuable, then it shouldn't be a problem."

"Oh well..." The man nods to her, saluting her.
"My contact told me you'd might be the one to call if we needed to harm the Jedi a little, but I guess Coruscant is too much trouble for you then...." he shrugs.
"Your mistake, little girl..."

Ra'ya raises an eyebrow. This has definately caught her attention.
"Hurting the Jedi?"
The thought goes through her mind a couple of times, like she's kind of weighing her dislikes against both the Jedi and the Republic.
She makes a decision, and sees that this was definately something that was worth a trip to Coruscant for, She set her blaster back in its hulster and says to the Barabel before he's gone.
"I'm in!"

The man nods to her, waving a hand at the barabel, who steps back a little again.
"Sounds good...my contact told me you'd be the girl to do it...." He smiles, though his smile is more creepy than happy and reassuring.
"As I said...I need you to leave for Coruscant immediately. Hangar 11, Docking bay B38. Someone will meet you there"

"I will go." She nodds and can't help herself from smiling a herself.
"Anything else I need to know?"

"Nope" The man shakes his head.
"Not before you're at Coruscant at least...." He turns and walks away from Ra'ya, the barabel following him.

Ra'ya watches them leave until they are out of sight.
She then turns to walk back to the hangar. That was a short trip to this planet, she thinks for a bid, but at least she now has a job to do.
It still irritates her that it is Coruscant she's going to. But the thought of being a part of something that can hurt the Jedi, was rewarding enough for her to drop her principles and do what she was asked to,
She walks quickly to the hangar. Apparently she didn't get as far away as she'd thought in the first place. She settles in the cockpit and starts the ships engines. She rushes the ship through the atmosphere and goes into hyperspace.
This would certainly be an interesting mission.
((Continued in "Hangar 11, dock B38" in the Coruscant board))
