The sun was setting on the planet's side beaches, Allyson watched from a distance, tucked away in a sniper nest. Returning here was painful, and she would avoid this place as much as possible. Time wasn't on her side anymore, and her other safe houses were compromised with the SIA and other Shadows. She had received Bait's ping and a safety lock in case the Droid had been compromised, and her network infiltrated. Knowing this put the Corellian on edge, the men and women involved in her private network were good at the job. They had that mutual respect for each other; if there was a code within the small group of spies, they would follow it.
Groaning, Allyson watched the sunset finish - memories clogged her mind, but she pushed them away. Remembering the blonde girl here was not the time or the place. At least with their bond broken, the pain the memories brought were more comfortable to deal with. Her heart belonged elsewhere and was free to feel happiness. The new budding bond kept her going, kept her moving forward, and kept her alive.
With the cover of night, the rogue Agent quickly fell into the Force Cloak she had perfected. Its cover would protect her from the naked eye and unnoticed if, for some reason, the Shadows had figured out her main safe house. It was one she rarely used, but it was her first. Moving through the deep sand dunes, Allyson made her way past where Kaili's workshop was buried under. Out of respect, she refused to use it but instead used the nearby facility that the pair had found on their first day.
A smile crossed her face, remembering the race, and how competitive the Talith girl was.
It didn't take long to reach the abandoned facility. Allyson ran her hand along with the cold concrete, searching for the grip that allowed her inside the hidden complex. Her work here was carefully calculated, she had built the safe house under Kaili's nose, and the woman didn't think twice about asking where the Corellian went during the days. There was a trust and like so many before Kaili, and after Kaili, Allyson shattered that trust and abused it. It was the job, it's all part of the job. A small voice in the back of the brunette's mind reminded her. This time around, with Jorryn, she would be honest and open.
There was no need for secrets anymore.
Finding the right window, Allyson gripped the thick pane with her gloved hands, pressure sensors picked up the proper grip, which allowed the hatch that resided under the window to open. One leg swung over, and then the other, the Corellian, let herself free-fall down the hatch and into the underground safe house.
She landed quietly, and the force cloak disappeared, a code entered <X4111>, and the dim lights flickered and the computers coming to live. A wave of her hand and the machine's quieted down and powered off for the most part. A mild fan sound echoed, which meant that the system was uploading the information onto a hidden cloud that the Corellian only knew about. With Bait compromised, she needed to keep her information to herself, away from the Droid.
Quickly, Allyson moved to her safe and began to pull things out, a quiver, compound bow, comm devices, a bag, and a few photos that she had always kept with her. They found their way into the bag while the quiver, jacket, and bow found themselves being worn. The woman was trying to move quickly, trusting her to hide her main hideout, not knowing if anyone else had figured her out. Only a select few knew the significance of Borleias to the Agent.
