Miss Blonde
Trying to be straight in a crooked Galaxy
Laying in the back of her personal star yacht, in a rather large queen sized bed, Patricia stared up at the ceiling as she lay her hands over her pregnant stomach. A blank and almost apathetic stare stretched across her pretty face, one that conveyed almost a deep sadness behind the facade of an uncaring demeanor. Her empire was gone. All those years of building and struggling, death and destruction, murder and mayhem, it was all just willingly let go of. Part of her would always long for it, because no matter what she would say to her self that "this is for my family." Or "I want my kids to live a good life." Deep down Patricia knew she enjoyed it, she was the best crime lord in the Galaxy and now look at her. Reduced to a part time errand-girl for the Outer Rim Coalition.
Now if that wasn't irony then Patricia didn't know what was. She was now working for the very same people who might of at one time had a vested interest in seeing her dead or in prison. It was always funny how life seemed to work. Either way this was the life she chose and now she had to live with it, it wasn't like she had the capacity to stay home every day of the week and tend to her family. That was how you got soft and weak or went insane, at least here on the fringes of the Galaxy she could keep herself steady and sharp.
"Ten minutes." A crackly voice on the ship's intercom interrupted her flow of thought and soon the woman's head lifted to stare up at the doorway.
With a sigh she ran her hands against her tired face and sat up on the edge of her bed. Hunching over slightly, Patricia kept her face buried in her hands. In all honesty she wanted to scream, but rather than that the ex crime lord decided to just stand up and get ready. With a steady walk to her closet, the woman opened it to reveal two outfits dangling rather loosely in the otherwise bare closet. One of which she didn't know why was there, why she insisted on keeping it around.
Miss Blonde's gas mask and suit. The soulless black visors of a wanted killer haunted her, called to her, wanted her to feel that familiar cruel embrace, and she wanted to feel it once more. But that life was over, she needed to stay strong and be the person she wanted to be. So pushing it to the side, Patricia grabbed the second outfit of a formal long flowing red dress and soon adorned it with a bit of makeup. Once she was set the woman stared into the mirror once more trying to see herself in it, and yet all that continued to stare back were those blackened visors of another life.
"Just go away." She said to herself before stepping out of the way of the way of the vanity mirror.
Coming into the main hall of the ship, Patricia eventually made her way to a rather lavish lounge area where she sat down on a nearby sofa and awaited the arrival of her employer, a one [member="John Shepherd"] from the ORC.
The mission was a simple one. Go to Utapou, sit down for dinner with a up and coming Sith Lord, and find an ancient sith tome. Secure the book was the number one priority and capture or death of said sith was secondary. Perhaps for the first time in years, Patricia would once again feel what it was like to do the right thing.
