<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Rogan looked at her a moment and nodded. <!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

By the way, you seem to know my name, but I have no idea what yours is.

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> He ran his fingers through his short dark brown hair, sighing slightly as he missed having it long. <!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

<font color=blue>She glanced at him, rose colored lips curled up into a playful smile, but did not answer. The elevator came to a stop and she stepped out into a lush reception area when the doors open.

"This way please."

She walked toward a set of elaborate doors across the room, the secretary at the desk rising to her feet.

" Miss, please! Let me announce you this time?!"

Terolyn stopped momentarily at the desk and patted the woman on the cheek.

" Take the rest of the day off, Leza, he's going to be in meetings all afternoon."

Terolyn motioned for Rogan to follow her once more and pushed the doors open.

Leaving Rogan just insdie the office, she walked to the man that sat behind a very large desk. Golden hair, green eyes, a days grown of facial hair, he was a rather unremarkable man. Were he standing in a crowd and not dressed in such an expensive looking black robe, he would not have been noticed.

Yet her smile widened as she approached, her hand reaching for the datacard inside her jacket. She walked behind the desk, her fingers gently gliding up his arm as she moved behind him and to stand on the other side of him. She set the datacard on the desk before him and sat on the desk's edge.

" Mr. Sibrill, may I introduce you to Heir Raktus, CEO of ID Tech."

He glanced up at the enforcer to the right of him, but the overpowering amount of blue hues he knew who she was before he even looked directly at her. He looked down at the datapad in his hand for a brief moment, going over costs and equipment. He stood and leaned over his desk holding his hand out to the man...
"I believe my favorite Enforcer has already duely introduced me, so its a pleasure to meet you. Have a seat, I believe we have something to discuss..."

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Rogan's eyes went wide as he followed her into the reception area. He thought that he had been in a place like this before but he couldn't remember. He followed her into the office and stayed just inside the door. When she introduced him to the man, Rogan stepped forward and bowed at the waist in a rather military like manner. As he stood, he smiled slightly. <!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

It is a pleasure to meet you, sir.

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Rogan wondered where the hell all these manners were coming from. He certainly hadn't learned them from his father. Rogan took the offered hand and shook it, then took a seat. <!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

Yes, we do. So.....is my wife going to kill me after I tell her how much I spent?

"So, like I said before, if we're going to keep mineing in the foot...hills..I........Mrs. Sibrill...Mrs. Sibrill? Jaina, are you listening? Jaina? <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Hello<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->?"

Jaina, her younger sister Cairo, and a TSS accountant all sat in Jai's office discussing business. It rather bored Jai, and she usually didn't pay much attention...but that wasn't exactly the case this time.

"Jaya? Sis...?"

Jai seemed to be stareing off into nothingness. Her brandy brown eyes were fixed, narrowed, at something very far off. Cairo and the accountant looked at each other worriedly. The last time Jai had been like this..well...neither one wanted to remember <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> that<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> incident. Cairo finally reached over and touched her older sister's arm softly, "Jaya?". Jai gasped and a hand instictivly went to her blaster, sending both Cairo and the accountant to the floor, ducking for cover. "Don't shoot, Jai! It's just me and Salvi'otor..."

Jai leaned over her desk and looked down at the two, cowering on the floor under thier chairs..."Heh, scared?"

"Your hand went to your blaster, that's never a good thing. So...yeah, you could say that, Jai."

"Don't get smart with me, Sal. I'm the messed up woman that signs your paycheck."

Cairo whispered, "Actually, I am...cause Jai was too lazy to ever learn to write in cursive." Jai narrowed her eyes at her kid sister and scoffed as the two got back in thier chairs.

"I don't doubt it, Miss Cairo...anyways, as I was saying: The mineing indust--"

"No time for that.", Jai walked around her desk and grabbed her aviator's jacket and trusty leather flightgloves. "I have to go save Rogan."

"<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> What<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->?"

"Sis?! Where are you going...? We're in the middle of a meeting!"

Jai yelled over her shoulder as she walked out, "I have a feeling, Kid!"

Cairo sighed and looked at the accountant as the door slammed behind Jai. "Here we go agian. She's off to play hero...So, what was that about the mineing agian?"

"Probobaly, but then again if shes like most women she dont have a leg to stand on"
He grinned and looked down at the pad again, he fingered a few buttuns before handing it over to the man
"Hows that look"

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Rogan's eyes went wide as he saw the offered price. <!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

Pretty damn good actually. I was expecting to pay a lot more than that.

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Rogan looked over the list again, then smiled. <!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

Yeah, this'll work perfectly. Jaina won't mind at all.

Good, now if you'll just give me your banking number, or will you be paying in pure credit?

Actually, I need to go back to my ship to get the money.

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> He stands and bows. <!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

I'll be back in a few moments.

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Then starts to head out the door, his hand nervously going to his blaster out of sheer habit, not out of any real fear of needing it. <!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

<font color=blue>She was moving the instant his back turned to them. She swept across the room, one hand slamming the door closed before Rogan could open it too far. Her other hand grabbed onto his wrist, twisting it painfully away from the blaster. Her metalic eyes glinted as they narrowed into a menacing scowl. She spun him around, twisting the arm she held behind his back, and forced him up against the wall.

" If I didn't know better I'd say you were going to use this!"

Terolyn removed the blaster from his belt and slid it into her own.

" Going for a weapon in the prescense of someone as important on Reecee as Heir Raktus is highly illegal, Mr. Sibrill, which would mean that you are under arrest."
