Yavin's red hue filled the viewscreen of the Femme Fatal as it dropped out of hyperspace. Anaya's fingers drummed on the arm of her chair and she felt the glances her way as her crew waited for her decision of their next move. Alastair, moved to her side crouching so as not to speak down at her. "M'lady, this is..."
"I'm aware of where we are. I am surprised he was foolish enough to come here." she rose from the chair and stepped closer to the screen as they moved round the planet and Yavin IV came into view. "Maybe I should have removed a finger or two before sending him on his way."
"May I speak freely, may lady?"
"If you must."
"We are wasting resources chasing this boy. His debt, while significant, is not worth all this." tension rippled across the bridge as Anaya turned to face her Captain. She stepped forward. "Are you afraid, Alastair?"
"I..."
"Do you not know me? Money is an excuse, I chase this boy because his father was Darron Wraith, Grandmaster of the Jedi Order that served the Republic. This was never about money, this is just entertainment." She moved past him, anger glittering in her eyes "Keep the Fatal in orbit of the gas giant. Ready a sleuth" A flurry of movement saw her commands followed out.
"This serves no purpose!" Alastair called to her, though when she looked at him, it was evident on his face that he regretted speaking. He lowered his gaze and dropped to one knee. "Forgive me, I didn't mean-"
"Shut up, and do your job. Keep this ship in orbit."

The jewel resting in her belly button felt warm to the touch as it worked to change her appearance. Shifting her from the tattooed lethan to a pale blue twi'lek as she stepped into the hangar bay. She'd wanted to take her Aleph fighter, but its ties to the Old Empire would instantly raise questions. The A36 Sleuth was more common and would make life a little easier upon landing. Someone brought her a case, slipping it into her hand as she ascended the ramp into the ship, palming the switch behind her. She set the briefcase onto a console and left it there while she guided the ship out of the hangar bay.
Anaya never really had anything particular against Jedi. In the time of the Sith Empire, they were nothing more than soldiers. Enemies in the way of the Empires goals and as such it was a requirement to kill them. That had been a long time ago and she'd made a point of being quiet. Oh she had her moments of insanity that peaked interest her way, like the events on Annaj, but otherwise she stayed off their radar. Flicking the ship to autopilot, destination Port Shardock, she moved her attention to the case.
She ran her fingers over the edge, nudging the lock with the force, it clicked open to reveal a glass vial filled with green liquid and embedded in protective foam. Trihexalon, hard to come by and extremely expensive since Omega seized the main supply, but anaya had acquired a few vials. Beside it, a droid of her own making, scorpion in shape, its purpose was normally to inject people with drugs. Today, it had a different use. She attached the vial to the scorpion and set it upon her palm.
"Lets see what reaction you get, my little friend." she purred at it before letting it slip into a pocket inside her cloak where it would be safe. She drew the force around her, twisting and warping her signature with ease, appearing to those who would reach for her in the force as a Jedi Knight. Her lightsaber rested at the small of her back and the comms began to chat as she reach the port. Sliding back into the pilot's chair, Anaya took control of the ship and landed, chatting amicably with the comm officer that had hailed her.
