The cavern was a buzz with noise; Twi'leks arguing with each other in their native tongue, the low hum of an engines drive warming and the rattling of chains. But the most noticeable noise of the din was the wailing of eleven of the twelve Twi'lek female dancers, chained to one another, waiting to board the Carrack Class Cruiser. The one dancer that had not shed a tear had no expression on her face. Not even her lekku moved. Sien'linn was the Twi'leks name and she would not give these 'humans' the satisfaction of seeing how much it hurt to leave her home.
They only waited a few moments more 'til the humans came and lead them into the ships cargo hold. Sien'linn was unable to catch a glimpse of her captors before the cargo doors closed. Once the door was sealed the lights in the hold came on. The dancers moved as one to the center of the hold. Being at the end of the line Linn was able to sit away from the others, she sat with her back against one of the bulkheads. Above her head was a small view port, standing back up Linn was able to see into the cavern. Watching the Twi'leks move around about their business, it seemed as though they didn't care that twelve of their number may never be coming back again. That was another reason why she did not shed any tears, there really was no reason for them. The girls behind her though were still crying, their lekku were thrashing wildly with fear.
The engines fired up moments later and the cruiser was slowly accelerating towards the space ports protocols. Sien'linn knew it would be tricky to move a ship this big threw the dangerous passage ways of the underground city. Reaching the exit tunnel the cruiser was bucked around by the strong winds of the desert planet Ryloth. The ship eventually broke threw the atmosphere and headed off towards one of the jumping points to some unknown planet.
