Corellia: On the way to Masker's Club:
Nikki threw the credit chip into the air and caught it. That was fun. She had just swindled a black market dealer out of a third of his week's profit and hadn't lost a credit. She thrust the chip in to her pocket and bound off in the general direction of her destination. Why rush? She'd get there sometime or another.
What had Cassie wanted again? Oh, Yes, sometime about a bug or something. But why drag her all the way to Corellia? Nikki's quick purple eyes caught a tall figure tailing her. She stiffened but causally walked on. Now she had a reason to run. Nikki jogged down the winding catwalks of a black-market storehouse. The figure followed with ease. Not another slaver, she shuddered, hopefully. She jumped off the catwalk and set of in a sprint. Not a robber or a thief. The stranger cleared the jump but fell awkwardly and let out a painfully grunt. Nikki almost chuckled, not a Vong. Another, who was faster than the first, joined the pursuer. She had no present prices on her head. The shadows gained on her. They were humans or humanoids for sure. Only that stupid 'Lost Child' poster. She ran out of the building and on to the winding street close to Masker's Club. Which building was it again? They were right behind her now. She gave up searching and picked a random dark alley to try to lose them in. Nikki made a sharp turn and ran right into a humanoid studying a blank wall. The Vurk's dark gray eyes surveyed the situation at once and his green-black face smiled. "New arrival?" He whispered. She nodded not really caring what he was talking about. The wall suddenly swung open and she found herself literally thrown inside.
Her first thought was kidnapping, but as angry curses streamed in from the other side of the wall it became clearer that it wasn't the case. The Vurk stood unconcerned, and attempted to straiten his already wrinkled gray shirt and black pants. He adjusted his black leather jacket and held out a hand to Nikki. She blinked suddenly finding herself on the cold black floor and accepted his hand. After a while the trackers went away and the Vurk introduced himself. "Sar's the name," he said smiling, "and saving young Masker's from stupid...whatevers...is what I do best!" "Nikki." She snapped slightly suddenly not talkative and annoyed at being rescued. She blinked. "Wait...Masker?" He gave her an even bigger smile and nodded. "Yep! You're in you can't get out again!" He scraped his black boots against the metallic floor and continued. "So you're a Masker!" He patted her on the shoulder. "Welcome to the club! But hey, if it makes you feel any better I'm new here too. I wasn't really even invited!" He started whistling happily and walked down a random hallway. A sudden shape appeared silently out of the shadows and Sar was suddenly sprawled out on the floor. Nikki started forward but a blaster in her face stopped her. A red haired, silver-eyed girl studied her. The girl somewhat dismissed her and eyed the Vurk-on-the-floor in surprise. "Sar!!!" She roared. "Why can't you just stay on your own planet for once!" He made an awkward shrug. "Silver get off me!" "Silver stay! Look! You and your little friend are staying here until I get and answer!" Nikki fumed. "I was invited! I will not be treated this way!" She did a quick flip of her wrist and the blaster skated across the floor. "Where's Cassie? I need to have a word with her." To her surprise the silver eyed girl shrugged. "Take the third right, second left, another right, right again, go strait for about ten doors, then follow the fifth hallway and take two lefts. "At Nikki's expression she sighed. "I'll take you to her." "Hey! Slayte!" The humanoid on the ground asked. "What about me?" "Silver, stay!" Slayte responded and lead Nikki down the hallways. As Sar yelled after them the questions in her mind were filtered and refiltered. No results appeared. She sighed and tried to memorize the identical black walls.
