He walked into the room, the discussions would now begin. He looked at an elderly man and shook his hand, "Good to meet you sir, I am glad I was able to be invited here to talk with you."

The man looked at him with a smile, "Well, we are always interested in seeing that we remain at peace. Now... first matter at hand, we have here an agreement that a discussion will be on the matter to help reorginize taxes to insure that we have a maxium efficiency when it comes to the way we spend our taxes."

Chris smiled and looked at the numbers, "Well, instead of spending money on advertising for your comerical industry, why not take half of the moeny instead and use it to improve the commerical industry itself. It will allow you to maxiuse your amount of money you get later on and improve the products."

The man smiled slightly, "Great idea," he was about to say more when one of the men started coughing, "Just a minute... we need to break for the day, usually this just means he needs to go to intensive care for a day, dont worry, it doesnt usually happen..." he said as he rushed to the man, "If you dont mind... we can reschedual..."

Chris nodded his head and walked out of the diplomatic room into the fresh air. He smiled slightly as he took a deep breath of air. The man he had spoken to eariler approached him, he shook Chris's hand, "You have alot of great ideas son... I wish I had a grandkid like you. I got a beautiful grand-daughter that you should see her but she probably has run off again. It is so hard to get her to settle down these days... My name is Fuuu Chiageya. Have a nice day," he said as he walked off again.

Chris shook his head and headed back towards his ship, he reached the hangar when he felt a set of eyes on him...

With a delicate little sniff, Chiisai Kyoufu peered down the small hallway before sweeping out in her normal fashion, her long black hair fanning out behind her briefly. She marched down the empty expanse, her boot heels thumping a steady rthyme, echoing off the bare tiles. The gentle humming of a servant droid, square and bulky, was the only other sound as it followed Chiisai as she stormed down the hall.

Marry her off, would they? Stick her with some old gross rich toad just to get rid of her? Chiisai knew that this wasn't going to happen. No matter how rich and well thought of Lord GooHead, or whatever his name, was, she was not going to marry some crinkly old man who needed servants to shock him awake every morning. It wasn't like her family needed the money. Fuuu Chiageya was a rich man himself and, since he was her grandfather and she his only granddaughter, Chiisai had no reason to worry for money for life. Not being a stupid girl, Chiisai knew it was because her family thought being married would calm her down.

Calm her down? HA! Let one of them try and stop her escaping and she'd show them calmed down! She'd do her best to break as many kneecaps as she could and scratch bite and claw her way out. She'd done it a few times before but those has just been temper tantrums. Chiisai occasionally had those.

Her dark eyes narrowing, Chiisai came to a halt before peering around another corner, the dark curtain of hair sliding off her back to hang down beside her. A small woman, barely 5 foot in height, and slender, from this position Chiisai could easily be mistaken for a very lovely child. It wasn't until one saw her quite noticible curves that she was revealed a grown woman, but for now, these were hidden as Chiisai found herself looking at a strange man walking towards her. Scanning his person, she tried to determine whether he was a threat to her escape or not.

He looked at a young lady, no taller than 5 foot, standing before him with a line of servant driods. He sighed heavily as he shook his head. He wondered what in the young lady was doing but he could definately tell by the look on her face that she was distressed about something... he wished with his heart it wasnt another one of those ill temptered royalty that had an attitude and bad manners... course knowing his luck today... it would be...

He looked at her face, "Is there something I can do for you Ma'am or can I be on my way?"

"Who you?" Chiisai wanted to know before she answered, stepping around the corner to eye the man critically, her voice heavily accented. Common wasn't her first language, they spoke another on her home world, and Chiisai hadn't been the most attentive during her language classes. If this fellow had no idea who she was, he might inadvertantly help her out. She found it most annoying that she needed directions. This wasn't her home base after all.

He smiled as he looked at her, he decided to go back to the other language... it was the one spoken by a few other people around here, which he had learned early on in life, "How do you do? My name is Chris Liberi," he spoke with a slight accent. "I am sorry if I dont speak your language very well... just I havent brushed up on it very well..." he said then shook his head. "I was here on governmental business... now as I said, how may I help you?"

"Chris Liberi?" Chiisai ran this through her brain and tried to attach it to someone, but couldn't. So he must be someone new and, therefore, possible found her new as well. Sniffing again, a personal habit of her's, a condescending little noise, Chiisai went right on butchering his language. "No, I speak this one instead. I Chiisai and I need to the docks. You show me?"

He shook his head slightly, continuing in basic, "Just please go back to your language, and I'll go back to basic... please." he motioned her to follow, "I can get you out of here if you want. I am on my way out of the system and a few days off with company wouldnt kill me," he said as he looked at her, "That is if you want that, Ma'am."

That was simple enough. Chiisai thought about a few things within only a matter of seconds. How she didn't know this person at all, how it was probably quite silly to disappear into space without telling anyone where she was going and how it more than likely extremely stupid to embark on a journey with several million credits worth of jewelry, 21 years worth of birthday and holiday gifts, loaded into the servant droid following her. Chiisai knew she'd never hock it for what it was worth but still, she had enough sense to know there was many who'd like to know how much was in there.

But Chiisai had made up her mind. She was escaping and going to find her own place in the universe, no matter how that happened. "I want. And I need practice so you speak what you like."

He smiled slightly and ushered her towards his ship, a shuttle he was using. He oppened the ramp inside the ship and walked inside, "Beauty, isnt she?" He said as he sat down at the controls and waited for her to get in, then put the ramp up. He requested permission to leave the planet and started his way off, "So, where do you want to go? Or are you just the type that want off the planet?" He said as he looked at her. "By the way, the fresher is over there," he said as he pointed to a door, "If you need anything, let me know."

"Going no where." Chiisai pointed out, looking around the interior. She wasn't an expert on ships but this one looked a little run down in her estimate. She sniffed, ignoring the fact that she generally was transported aboard the finest of the finest so she wasn't giving this ship a fair chance. "Where we go now?" The little woman asked, sitting down primly in a chair, back straight, posture perfect.
