"Kali, that's a dangerous question to ask me, and I would suggest you not ask it again. I belong to whom I belong too, and maybe one day, you'll find out who, but it's not the time." he said with a slight snarl, but quickly replaced his features. He didn't want the higher ups to see what he was doing, on the off chance they didn't like it. He had actually began to like some of the people he was tailing, he needed more info and Kali was just who he wanted to talk to. "So, catch some live frogs? We can manage that."

Kali was a little taken aback by the slight snarl Zane spoke with at first. She could respect that he didn't want to talk about something; she agreed with him, patience was key here as he had implied. She decided it would be best to ignore it.
"Oh, I was attempting to make a joke," said Kali. "Any food really would do. I think you mentioned a place to eat earlier? Is it any good?"

'It's the best around here, if that tells you anything." he said, the smile returning to his face. He really did want to get to know this girl better, and maybe through her, the others in this mission, especially Jeraldi and this guy Darius. "They'd be perfect Master and Apprentice" he thought to himself, and Kali would make an excellent contact and addition to his cause.

"All right, lead the way," said Kali. This man intrigued her and even though she felt a little like she was playing with fire, she didn't mind. Fire was fun to play with if you were careful, and with a little practice, was a powerful ally, and could also turn into something beautiful.
"I'll buy you dinner, too," she added with a flirtatious wink, a hand in her pocket.

"If I'm on a date, the man always buys, that's my rule." he said, with a smile, pulling her hand out of her pocket and grabbing it with his. "My place, my treat, and a pretty girl to go with it all."

Kali gave him a firm punch on the arm with her free hand, not enough to harm him, but enough to send across her point. "Just know who you're dealing with," she said, and gave him a light peck on the cheek. "If you're going to go on a date with me, then let me warn you, if you fall for me, I might break your heart. Just wanted to tell you from the start." She then gave him a full smile, and enjoyed the glow that seemed to be radiating from her. She didn't know exactly how she felt right now, but she did like it.

Jeraldi walked up the ramp of the ship with excitement in his eyes. "Why, this is a pretty darn nice ship!" He exclaimed as he took the left wing of the ship while Darius took the right. "I think I could get used to this!" It'd been a while since he had been in a ship this big. The flux capacitor was enormous and duel port lithium ion power block was not of any style he had every seen. "Why it looks like this ships fuel cells recharge on their own! No work required!" Jeraldi said turning on the nav com. "This ship even has a new state of the art molecular destabilizing transportation system. I'm very impressed."

Darius chuckled as he could hear Jeraldi's praise for the ship from the other wing. He had to admit, though, it was a really nice ship. Where Kali's was all custom modifications and personalization, this ship was sleek and streamlined. The walls looked clean and smooth, without clutter, and the floors and ceiling were even and seamless. Only lettering, mostly labels for panels protecting equipment and switches, marred the otherwise pristine look. Even then, it was a beautiful ship to Darius' Zabrak eyes.
However, it was the shield generator that caught his eye and made his mouth drop. "NO WAY!" he shouted, hurrying over to it like a kid opening presents. He knelt on the floor, his hands reverently drifting over the generator's labeling. Kali said her generator was capable of slicing off trees as it landed, so as to protect the hull, and Darius believed her. But the generator before him he had only ever heard of in whispers of fantasies. The Zabrak Industrial Molecular Disintegration and Repulsion Mark X was a beauty of Iridonian engineering. The shield was capable of disintegrating virtually all organic and non-organic substances to their molecular base, with only a few exceptions; it did have a speed requirement which, once surpassed, could only deflect 80% of the incoming object's force. Lazer fire, however, was reflected BACK in the direction it was fired from. "This will definitely come in handy," he said, standing.
He then quickly inspected the rear engines and turrets on his wing. All he saw passed inspection. Frowning in thought, and a little worry, Darius headed back to the main hold just behind the cockpit at the apex of the bend of the ship.

Kvotha entered the cockpit, her thoughts still distracted. Glancing around, she let her hands fall across particular places to double check for tampering. Finding nothing, she turned around in a satisfied way. She had to admit ships weren't her strong point, but she could recognize a good ship when she saw one. She smiled to herself as she nodded at its quality, wondering if the others had found anything wrong with either wing of the ship.

"I'm not worried about that fickle thing, it's already gone, but that's another story." he said as they walked to the counter to order. "What do you want my dear?" He thought it was strange that she had kissed him, but he'd go with it, and hoping he wasn't actually falling for this woman on this particular mission

Kali raised her eyebrow, and gave him a mischievous grin. He was playing this game well.
"I'll have what you're having, I'm not sure what's good on this planet," she replied, as she pulled her hood to hide her face from the people staring. She could pass as human enough if she'd hide parts of her face. Time for a reality check now...

"Don't hide, show them what you are, they won't mess with you. They know better when I'm around." he said with a slight grin. The people of this world did indeed know who and what he was, many of them were his friends, and this would be a signal to them to help this girl and her friends. "I'm having just a steak with my tea, you want it rare or medium?"

"Rare," said Kali, giving him a toothy grin. Who was this man? He sounded confident with these people. Curious, Kali decided to go with it. She reluctantly pulled her hood back, and anxiously looked around at the people with her feline gaze. Curiosity got the better of her patience, and she decided to go for the gold.
"Zane, are you someone...important on this planet then?" she asked, mentally whacking herself for her poor choice of words.

"Someone important? Eh, that's hard to say, but people know me here and they know what I'm capable of, so there's nothing to worry about. Now you and your friends shouldn't have to worry about not being served at a cafe, or a store as long as you're in it with them." he said with a smirk. He ordered the steaks and walked over to his table, placing his back against the wall so that he would be able to watch the crowd.

"You are being very vague," said Kali, with a sly grin as she joined him, positioning herself so she could see him and most of the crowd well. "Thank you for watching out for us, though." She decided to be patient again. He'd probably open up if she didn't push too hard. Gosh, this man just kept leaving her with more questions...
She noticed that the people there seemed to ease off their staring. She felt like they didn't approve, but they had some respect for her now. This was good. Sometimes it paid to have such a distinctive face.
"Answer me one question, though," said Kali. She hoped she didn't sound rude and blunt like she normally did, but she did her best with her words as she pleaded with her eyes. All she needed to know right away now was if she could truly trust this man. The rest could wait, but if she could trust him, then no matter what happened here, she could walk away knowing...something she couldn't quite put her finger on. She trusted so few people, she didn't even know what it was. She shook the thought off as she waited for his confirmation of her request.
