Jelan was, simply, ecstatic since her latest news, and instead of wasting her day away stuck in the Cantina dancing, she was finally out on the streets, walking casually along the side of the street, nodded her head to those who she knew and then fell silent once again. The emotions of her happy mood came in waves, because in some ways she would miss that place, but also in some ways she was glad that she was out on her own.

Sighing to herself, her violet eyes looked over those that passed her, wondering if any of them would have any idea if there were any jobs available willing to pay a Twi’lek. She didn’t know much about the outside world, save for those cases in which she and Ishara got down to their business. She grinned at the thought of that and then realized she was alone. For once in her life, she wasn’t with her ‘master’; for her master was no more. She was her own person. She laughed quietly to herself for overlooking this part and found herself leaning up against a building, watching people pass as she wrapped her arms around herself, and then decided it would be better to keep on walking.

She wondered what jobs she’d be capable at; she knew some of her traits that were excellent, but she could not reveal those to just anybody… Shrugging her shoulders, she decided that she’d just have to try her hand at multiple tasks, and find out what she excelled at, and find out what her weaknesses were. All she knew was that no one was going to make her be a slave again, and she wouldn’t stand it if they even tried.

Taking in a deep breath, she pushed herself up off the side of the building with her right foot, walking amidst the crowd, feeling as if she blended in all too well. Would she ever make herself stand out? She knew it didn’t matter, but being just another face in the crowd wasn’t the nicest of things, now, was it? She didn’t necessarily want to stand out to the point of where people got out of her way to let her have the easiest route through, really, but she just wanted to have some unique traits that other people could only dream of having. She wasn’t greedy, but for some reason she thought she was. Frowning to herself for thinking of such things, she sighed lightly and lifted her head up, finally able to look others in the eyes without being scolded while dancing. It was a nice feeling. Truly, it was.

For' Hil was on the run form a small time Hutt named Bo-Bly, he was no one special to the galaxy. In fact if the grease ball died he didn't know if anybody but a hand full of Bounty Hunter in there 20s wold know. For' Hil was in the cantina looking for 'prospects' for his newly starting business or at least some contact to some jobs he was starting on his own again for the third time in his life. For' Hil was sitting at a bar watching the entertainment but more focused on trying to listen in on people conversation of a deal or something going down he could get his hand in for a few credits. The only problem this time was that he watched this Twilek walk out of the cantina, fascinated by this alien he got up from the stool and walk out the same exit and stayed back from her and was going to follow her through the crowd until he knew why he was fascinated by the Twilek. He didn't know what but he knew that there was something not 'low' about this twilek. Pursuing the through the hustling crowd and bumping into which seemed like every person just make this 'stalk' hard on him. For' hil frustrated move to the edge of the crowd near the brick wall and trash cans until he ran on over and nearly fell on the ground.

Unaware that she was, in fact, being followed, she completely ignored the man that she might have seen out of the corner of her eye, had she been paying attention at all, but her mind was elsewhere, the stars being their limit. And as she thought, she continued her walk, placing her back to the man as she moved gracefully, perhaps too gracefully to catch the eyes of some of the natives to this planet.

Help it, however, she could not, and she continued on her way, weaving in and out of the crowds, her eyes going over each of the windows that some people were looking into at the stores, wondering where she should find her first employment out of the Underground. Or perhaps she should return there and see what new job they had for her? She knew not, however, and shrugged her shoulders to herself, looking at many of the people she walked by with curiosity, then looked at the windows to see what was so special as to attract their attention.

Finding that it was nothing that interested her, however, she once more continued on her long walk, making sure not to bump into anyone.

For'Hil picked himself up and quickly scanned the crowd for the twilek and found hi instantly for she stuck out like a sore thumb with her blue skin. He walked along following her but picked up the pace to get closer to her so her would lose her. The faster he walked to get closer it seemed like the more people they was in the crowd. After some time he was finally only 20 yards from the Twilek and he knew had to keep this distance any closer or he might frighten into think he was going to some worse then his true intentions. For' Hil started to study her and immediately noticed one thing about she was distracted she was in deep thought about something. For' Hil smiled and knew that he could slip up even more and she would notice the least bit. He decided to get closer to her maybe only 10 yards away from her or closer until her noticed one unusual thing the kid who was right behind was there three block ago and has always been there. He was dirty little boy with brown hair and torn clothes. For' Hil just hope he was a pick pocketer like in his younger days much younger days.

Should that little boy have been a pickpocket, he would not have found a pocket from which to pick from Jelan, try as he might; for she carried no money on her, having left it with Ishara for the time being. Of course, she didn’t notice she was being followed—nothing seemed out of the ordinary, since numerous people were behind her. Perhaps not following her, but they were there nevertheless, and that is also why she did not notice the two behind her. Hers arms swayed naturally at her side, and she cast sidelong glances at passersby who returned them to her, and she laughed lightly to herself before gazing into a shop window. Perhaps in a few more jobs and she’s be able to buy herself a ship and get away from this planet and move elsewhere…freely, of course.

For' hil watched the intently but the kid then just walked off into an apartment building. Gripping his hand he started to move in closer this time he was just 11 yards away. He tried not to seem so obvious in his all black out fit and his orange sunglass in which he was waring at on very awkward time of the day and in a city which required you to even own one to get by in. For' hil then smoothly move his hand to his holster just in case the Twilek turned around and freaked out on him but even then he could see even from this distance she wasn't armed or it would have been very obvious to everyone if she was armed. Fro' hil started gain the courage to and confidence to move closer but he just needed a reason to ask her his employment question that has been nagging him since the canina
