He couldn't help but notice her each time she walked by. Mira was so sassy and told it like it was. Something Bao wasn't use to from a female. He couldn't help but look at her from the corner of his eye. There she sat across Atton concentrated on the cards.

"You know Mira. Pretty soon you're going to have to give me your gear to make up for the money." Atton said with cockiness as they played.

Mira rolled her eyes, "You are way too good at this." She put in her last few credits.

Bao Dur sat at a chair nearby their game. Mira looked at him and smiled in a friendly way.

"Hey Bao" Atton said.

"Hello Atton…" Bao answered, he slightly blushed. "Mira"

Mira nodded her head as her concentration set in. "Are you reading my mind Atton?" she said in an irritated tone.

Atton gave her a look, "Don't do that…" he shook his head, "Don't lump me up with Kreia."

Bao's stomach twisted slightly. He then decided to change the subject. "So how many Credits are on this game?"

Alison then entered the room and set down her bag filled with Jasard and credits. Atton looked at her; she still had the sexy outfit on.

"I can't get enough of this" Atton stated.

Alison looked at Atton. "Shut up Atton. I am only wearing this since my clothes need to be washed."

Mira was glad Alison walked in; this had Atton distracted for once. Mira switched two cards of his; she looked at Bao and winked. Bao couldn't help but chuckle and look to Atton for his later reaction.

"I think you dropped something Alison…" Atton smirked.

"I have half the mind to smack you." Alison crossed her arms

Atton ran his fingers through his head. "Alison, if you wanna smack me around then we better get some privacy, I mean after all… let's not, you know, in front of the crew. " he winked.

"Just get us off Nar Shadda when you're done losing." Alison then left with a rosy face and a glare in her eyes.

Atton looked at the two sitting near him, "No matter what I do she always wants some of this-"

"Scoundrel?" Mira interrupted.

Atton rolled his eyes, "Whatever… now let's add up the cards…" Atton looked at Mira's "19, close but not close enough" he then looked at his, his eyes widened. "27!?" he looked through his cards, "Don't tell me I used up all my subtract cards…"

Mira rested her feet on the table, "I guess this means I win Rand. I'll have my things back please." She held out her hand.

Bao got up and started to go to the garage, "Mira let me know if anything you have needs repair" he then yawned and greeted Atton with a see you later nod.

Atton huffed and gave her the items and headed for the cockpit to start liftoff. Mira then noticed her blaster was broken.

"Dammit, this blaster is getting old." Mira then went to the garage, she saw Bao just cleaning his tools. "Hey"

She startled him slightly, "Mira I wasn't expecting you so soon…" Bao cleared his area.

"Weird, why would you expect me?" she handed him her blaster.

Bao smiled, "Well I can see that this blaster is very old, an old Mandalorian one to be in fact."

Mira smiled, "It's my first one. It has some sentimental value, but it mainly has an auto focus that's quicker than any other I've seen." Mira then tried to take off her other gear. She got a metal part stuck in her hair.

Bao Dur stood up, "Stay still Mira I'll help."

The ship started to take off, the two weren't prepared for it. Bao Dur fell over back onto his chair with Mira crashing on him causing the chair to fall. The two were pressed together with Mira's gear tangled. They struggled to get off each other; they couldn't help but look rather 'intimate' like that.

"Stay still…" Bao said as he nervously tried to untangle them.

"Stop that you're hurting me!" Mira then tried getting off him.

"I'm sorry you're tangled up" Bao felt the embarrassment as he tried to help, but it seemed to be getting worse.

Bao's remote whizzed. Atton heard the beeps and walked toward it, he turned the corner and saw Mira in a mount position on top of Bao.

"Whoa!" Atton exclaimed. "The least you both could do was to wait till you got to the beds…"

Mira shut down her gear completely causing it to release her off Bao. "I'll be somewhere else, do me a favor and don't bother me." She exited the garage.

Bao was still tangled in the gear, Atton reached out his hand to help him up, "Thank you Atton…" he said shy fully.

"Don't mention it. In fact, if you want me to… I won't either" Atton then chuckled and winked his eye.

"We fell. Atton…" Bao defended his case.

"I wish Alison had that grace then" Atton chuckled as he crossed his arms. "It's nice to know that I'm not the only fella with lady problems."

Bao picked up the gear and put it on his work bench. He started to make modifications and fix the broken pieces.

"Alright I can see you're the bashful type on this subject" Atton started to head out. "You know where I'll be."

Meanwhile Mira was in the storage chamber eating while Brianna meditated. Brianna took deep breaths and thought about what lied ahead…

Mira coughed, Brianna somewhat glared at her. "Sorry Brianna, this is some spicy stuff."

Brianna got a good look at Mira; she noticed her mannerisms were off. "You seem agitated."

"It's nothing" Mira stated.

Brianna smirked as she softly huffed, "Well if it seems that it is something." Brianna tried to relax.

"Sweetie just continue you're meditating." Mira tossed the empty canister.

"Must you act so childish?" Brianna stood up, "I just asked if something was wrong."

"I was unprepared." Mira muttered.

Briana circled her hand, "For?"

"I feel like if I tell you… well I'll never hear the end of it." Mira leaned her back against the wall covering her face. "It's stupid, pointless. Just forget it…"

Brianna rolled her eyes; she then continued her breathing exercises. Mira watched her breath seem to grow calmer and calmer. Mira thought about Alison, Kreia when they would meditate.

Brianna sighed, "Listen Mira I feel your intensity. Please just tell me." Brianna stood up.

Mira sighed, "Fine, but don't tell!"

Brianna laced her hand on her heart then extended it as a fist, "Handmaiden honor."

Mira raised her eyebrow in doubt, "Oh please that's not a real thing"

Brianna laughed, "Let's pretend it is."

"Alright…" Mira then began to tell the incident.

Visas sat in the room in confliction with herself. She caressed her scars on her arms and felt a rush of emotions. Her Master clouded her mind, times when he would beat her, cut her, plain devalue her. It was getting hard for her to meditate, something seemed to block her vision of the future and replace it with fear.

"What if the exile fails?" Visas would think to herself alone.

Alison would come to mind, her audacious attitude and her moral standpoint. It was all inspiring and brought hope to Visas. There would be times when she tried to sleep, she would dream about a field of flowers as she envisioned herself breaking free from chains.

"Visas?" Alison's voice was heard.

"Master?" Visas sensed around, but Alison was not in the room…Visas cleared her head the best she could.

She then sensed Alison actually enter the room. Alison set down a blanket near her, visas couldn't speak… Alison left the room and went elsewhere around the ship. Visas no longer felt the fear consume her, so she then got up and lie down in the bed near her. And for the first time in forever, Visas was able to sleep.

"What the hell is that doing there?" Alison thought as she looked in the closet.

She then looked at the broken droid in the closet. It was similar to the HK models that attacked her.

"Something up?" Atton asked as he watched Alison.
