Kitty ventured the streets of the small town curiosly.So far she had only met peasants and townspeople, none dressed as bedazssleingly as she had hoped, leaving a very sad and very pouty Kitty. But her ears and spirits perked up when she saw something pink and glimmering in the distance. Kitty quickly headed in the general direction of the pink glimmer, curiosity taking over her thoughts. Could this be a strange alien species? An Actor? Kitty's eyes widened as she saw the pretty pink haired girl. Her eyes immediately wandered down her body, focusing on teh sparkling bracelet she had on. Kitty had to have it she decided as she approached her, meaning to swipe it before the pretty girl noticed

Niyla had been on Coruscant for some time now, and truth be told the girl was about fed up with the dank place. The troupe finished their last show a few nights ago and she was packing up, to head off who knows where. Though Niyla was a ringmaster who desired treasures. And there was no way she was leaving the planet without some kind of relic to symbolize her time here, surely a place like Coruscant would have a grand shipyard or scraps town that Niyla could scavage.

And just as the girl had imagined, the planet did. After speaking to some of the locals in the capital city she had discovered that there was a smaller town on the outer rim of the world which was called: 'Wasteland'. Despite being tired from a long month of shows and events Niyla was quite eager to see what she may discover here.

She had the CS Alura parked outside the town in a large, no, huge shipyard. She had tasked her troupe with looking for some salvageable materials and parts here, really just anything she could tinker with.

The zeltron had dressed according to how she had planned her day, she adorned herself in her custom magnified goggles, which were attached to the helmet seeming to fit her figure perfectly. She wore tight shorts which came up to her upper thighs, after all Coruscant was a hot planet. And as a top she wore a white tank which had her belt and tools strapped down the side.

The ringmaster had found herself delightfully lost in the wonderland of ships and old vehicles, she currently stuffed her body down an old y-wings droid cockpit where she had her rather large butt sticking out, and a hand latched to the side to keep her from falling in the hole. Niyla could have sworn to see something attached to the bottom, it looked like an old droid cu. Though while she tried to reach it she felt a tingle on her wrist which was exposed, the girl quickly pulled herself up to see the cat-like creature with her fathers bracelet in its grasp.

At first sight she was wide eyes, how dare this little thing try to steal from her.

"HEY! Give that ba-" Niyla bit down on her lip, her face flushing a deep red.

Her temper caused her to act rash, though Niyla had a heart. Plus she didn't wanna scare the little, and admittedly cute cat-person off with her bracelet in hand... or paw.

Niyla found her way to eye level with the girl. She put out her hand and let a welcoming smile form onto her lips. "Hey there, whatcha doin' all the way out here?" Her tone was fairly pleasant and her zeltronian accent flowed gracefully from her lips. Though Niyla was trying extremely hard not to let her temper get the best of her. The young woman pushed her pink bangs to the side as she awaited the natives response, starting to wonder whether or not she actually even spoke galactic common.

The catgirl didn't show the tiniest traces of fear. Afterall, the girl hadn't decided to hit her yet, or throw something at her, so things were going well. "Kitty is exploring, then kitty saw the pretty pink girl. So kitty came to look at her, when kitty saw the sparkles on pink girl's arm" She raised [member="Niyla Alura"] 's wrist up for the pink haired girl to inspect, as if believe she didn't know she was wearing a bracelet.

Truly the cat girl had just began to wander aswell, which had brought her to teh same location as Niyla "Kitty didn't mean to be mean. Kitty just want's pretty girl's sparkle. Can Kity have it?" She asked, putting on her most adorable, pouty look. She was balanced on the y-wing's wing precariously, though she didnt seem to be having the tiniest problem staying upright.

Kitty looked the girl over now, inspecting her. She had enjoyed getting a good look at her butt when she had been bent over, but she found she liked more than just that about the girl. The girl was really pretty she decided, a small smile lighting up her face, revealing a few predatory fangs inside her mouth

 

[scarletsurf]

As the girl touched Niyla her immediate reaction would have normally been to jolt away, though this cat-person seemed to be peaceful in its nature. So Niyla let her hold her wrist, this was actually the perfect moment for Niyla to inspect the person in front of her.

She had big hopeful eyes and seemed to be around her late teens or early twenties. Her body was petite and slender, though despite this Niyla could sense strength in her. The lady had long beautiful white hair and two ears sprouting from atop her head, which, was odd. Niyla had never came across a creature like her.

"Kitty is exploring, then kitty saw the pretty pink girl. So kitty came to look at her, when kitty saw the sparkles on pink girl's arm" Spoke the girl, Niyla giggled at this and took her hand, feeling the soft skin.

"You think I'm pretty?" Niyla bit the side of her lip out of embarrassment if anything and leaned in closer to Kitty.

"Kitty didn't mean to be mean. Kitty just want's pretty girl's sparkle. Can Kity have it?" She spoke again, this time Niyla stepped back, she sent the ship off balance, her own balance giving way, the girl then fell back and landed on the wing. She sat up and ran a hand through her hair. "Ouch..."

"Did you say...have it? You're kidding right?" She asked, her tone turning sassy.

I must be dreaming...Niyla thought as she looked up to see the cat person.

Kitty blushed a little aswel when Niyla stroked her hand and leaned closer to her, for a second the cat girl imagined the girl kissing her. She quickly shook her head and banished those thoughts. "Yes" she nodded energeticallly "Pink girl is very pretty" She purred her tail swishing through the air.

Feeling the plane beginning to tilt Kitty quickly pulled [member="Niyla Alura"] 's hand pulling the girl toward her, this had the effect of saving the plane...But also causing Kitty to be pressed right up against the Pink haired dancer.

"I um Yes...Kitty likes sparkly things...Kitty thinks the sparkly band looks good on Pink girl...so kitty wants it..." Elizabeth tried to explain her reasoning, though she had begun to stutter somewhat do to the close proximity of the other girl.

 

[scarletsurf]

As niyla fell into the her grasp it was just like she had been transported to the stage, she was used to being so close to people. Though the circumstances were different, it wasn't odd to the ringmaster to be in her arms. She stroked her side as she gracefully backed away from her, expressing a soft blush.

"Look, the bracelet is mine, you seem cool and all but if you ask about it again I'm going to get upset." her tone was cold, yet Niyla had a hard time being mean to the girl.

The salvager looked down to her wrist, admiring the jewelry. She had remembered receiving it like it was yesterday, and it meant too much to Niyla to just give it away. Anyways she wasn't about to give it away in the first place.

Niyla looked back to the girl and licked her lips as she hopped off the old y-wing, signifying the girl followed her.

"I'm not giving you my bracelet. But I'm sure there is something shiny here we can find together." Niyla shook her head and smiled, there was something about this odd girl that she liked. Though she wasn't about to let her know that.

Miss verdan followed her as she was bade, hopping nimbly off of the y-wing's y wing. She followed the strange pink haired girl that had caught her fascination, atleast for the moment. She was a bit sad about the bracelet but, it appears she had found a new way to have fun with her instead.

Kitty's tail wrapped around Niyla's wrist as she walked next to her, tugging at it excitedly as she pointed to what appears to be a semi intact corvette chassis, buried under mounds of scrap, but with just enough clerance for the two girls to get in "Looky what I found, bet theres something in there hmm?" Kitty sadi proudly, smirking up at the taller girl

 

[scarletsurf]

When she felt the tug on her wrist Niyla bit down on her lip, at first her face seemed to express distrust and confusion, though she would let the cat person have her fun for now. Niyla rolled her eyes and looked down to Elizabeth, she was an interesting specimen for sure.

As the kitty pointed to the cruiser Niyla also seemed to do the same time, she nodded rapidly and looked back to the girl. "Most definitely!" Niyla eyed the silver shining ship, slightly jogging to get there. Afterall a ship like that would probably have a nice hyperdrive she could take apart for scraps. Once they reached it Niyla jumped inside a small broken window higher than the kitty would probably be able to jump. In truth she almost forgot about the kitty in her excited attitude, though at the thought the young ringmaster put her hand out for the catgirl to climb up.

Impatiently she waited, blowing her hair out of her eyes dramatically to express this.

[Tanith Alde]

Kitty pouted up at her, Abandoning her like that wasn't nice. She decided impressing her in return would only be fair. Being part cat, Kitty could jump much further than most humanoids, and she displayed this now, dropping through the window in a neat twirl. Once inside she turned to [member="Niyla Alura"] and grinned, performing a little bow "Don't forget kitty next time?"

Kitty smiled playfully, tugging Niyla's wrist once again with her tail to guide her further into the corvette "Hmm..This looks like an Ambassador's corvette..." She murmurred "Kitty bets we'll find some pretty sparklies in the diplomat's quarters" She suggested, hurrying the pink haired woman alongside her.

Kitty felt as if she might have finally found someone similar to herself in attitude, and was enjoying the time with her immensely

 

[scarletsurf]

As the girl easily, quite sassily jumped past her and ignored her most kind generosity Niyla had a look of surprise in her scarlet eyes.

"Don't forget kitty next time?" The girl said. "Yeah whatever." Niyla spoke in rebuttal, a hint of sarcasm in her voice. She shook her head and pulled her long hair into a high ponytail, tying it back.

She's feisty... The smuggler thought as she watched the cat lady. She then stood up to her full height, admiring the ship. Though it was falling apart but for an old junker it certainly had a sense fight in it, a vessel like this must have been around in the clone wars.

When the cat person mentioned the ship as being political, using terms like ambassador and diplomat Niyla was also taken back, the cat lady sure had a lot of surprises in her.

As the two walked down the corvettes halls Niyla couldn't help but asking her the question that had been nagging her since she first met the girl. She looked down to her and asked blatantly. "You must be in your 20s, why do you act so childish? And what are you anyways?"

The ringmaster hoped she hadn't upset her, yet she wanted to know, and Niyla wasn't the type of person to 'avoid' the information she wanted to know if she thought it might hurt someones feelings.

Kitty looked up at her and tilted her head "Well Kitty is Twenty-Two if you must know but, Kitty is a little short, as you can tell" She indicated her barely five feet tall Height. "Sometimes it's safer for Kitty to act younger yes? Maybe then people underestimate Kitty hmm?" Dropping the childish front Kitty's voice changed a bit aswell going from high and childish to what can only be described as purringly seductive "Kitty likes it when people underestimate her, makes life much easier for this one" She indicated herself.

"As for what Kitty is, Kitty is a Felacation. Theres not many of us left anymore, it's why Kitty has to be so careful" She explained "Felacations, as you can see, are adorable. However we also have a few...Unique, things about us" She walked up to the durasteeel wall of the corvette and placed her hand against it. She dragged her nails down the wall and the durasteel shredded beneath them like a hot knife going through butter.

"Anymore questions for Kitty?" She asked, her voice slowly returning to it's original cheery childishness, a playful smirk lighting up Elizabeth's lips.

[scarletsurf]

As the girl changed her attitude the ringmaster listened carefully, interesting this 'Felecatian' was. Perhaps she wasn't so naive afterall.

Niyla smiled and ruffled her hair. She would play this act for now, if she was good at anything it was putting on a show.

"No more questions, I appreciate your honesty," She looked away from the girl, gazing at the scratched durasteel with curious eyes.

"I run a little family that you would never have to hide yourself from, because in the circus we are all freaks...But... That is for another time my dear. For now let us explore this ship together." Niyla looked up and started walking, she admired the ship, so much to salvage but so little to carry.

Though Niyla believed that Elizabeth would be the true treasure she found today.

Kitty allowed her hair to be ruffled, though she would have preffered it petted. Kitty was a sucker for a good petting, or a foot rub.

"Kitty knows well what it's like to feel like a freak because of what other say and think" She said softly, a glimmer of sadness in her eyes and her voice" Kitty would like to have a family like [member="Niyla Alura"] 's one day, though she doubted one would accept her

"Indeed, lets see what shinies, sparklies and such were left arround for Kitty and the Pretty" She giggled at her little rhyme, following the Pink haired girl through the wrecked diplomatic corvette

 

[scarletsurf]

"It's not a bad thing to be a freak- it just means we are different from normal people, and being different is a good thing, I think. I've uh, spent my whole life figuring that one out."

Niyla tried to gather her emotions as the girl began to rhyme. Giggling along with her and smiling as the girl distracted her thoughts.

"You really like the shiny things don't you there Kitty. You would love my circus." Niyla suddenly stopped and faced the wall. She pulled a panel that seemed to be loose and from behind it was a large ball of circuits. Niyla licked her lips and ripped them out of the side, she went to put them in her pack but dropped some of them on the floor.

The scavenger leaned down and perched her head at the catgirl. "Would you mind..."

Seemingly out of the blue Niylas cheeks flushed a hot red and she stepped closer to the cat person.

"This is kinda embarrassing, but I haven't even asked your name... Would you tell me?" She locked eyes with Elizabeth and looked at her for the first time in a different light, she was beautiful...

[member="Elizabeth Verdan"]

 

[Tanith Alde]

Being a freak was okay....Maybe there was some truth to that, Kitty didn't particularly feel like she was wrong. And the girl did have such a pretty laugh, Kitty noted with the softest of blushes.

She watcched Niyla beginn to scavenge some components from teh ship and leaned forward to see exactly what she was getting. Kitty may be an able mechanic but there were other kinds of shinies she preffered. "Kitty loves the shinies and the pretties" She murmured.

Kitty's eyes locked with [member="Niyla Alura"] 's and her own blush deepened as said pink haired girl took a step toward her

"It's okay...Kitty's Name is Lizzy...Elizabeth Verdan..." She said with the tiniest embarassed stutter, taking a step toward Niyla subconcsiously

 

[scarletsurf]

Such a pretty name...Niyla looked at the cat person with intrigue, her young eyes seemed to tell a much wiser story. One of lost and hate. Though, Niyla would not ask her about her past, for now Niyla would just do what she came here for: scavenge.

"Well then Elizabeth, it is nice to meet you! I'm Niyla." The ringmaster smiled with a nod and threw the stuff in her arms onto the floor, putting her hand out for Lizzy to shake. Suddenly a small light lit on her com which was wrapped around her wrist.

"Ringmaster, it's getting late, the rest of the crew is meeting back at your ship, tell me when you are ready...and hey Niyla, be careful out there." A young sounding voice spoke from the com.

In response Niyla clicked a small button on her wrist. "I'll be there soon Jack, I've found something... And don't worry about me, I can take care of myself."

Niyla then stood and gathered her things, throwing them into her pack and looking around, noticing it was starting to become dim outside.

"Hm, I hear that some creatures like to come out in the junkyards at night. I'm going to be leaving now, you're welcome to come along Elizabeth, if you want." The girl pulled the straps on her pack to a more comfortable position and looked down to the lady, wondering if she was coming with Niyla or staying.

Kitty shook her hand and smiled up at her "Well then the Kitty will come with you" She decided upon hearing her offer. "But give kitty just a few minutes to look around" Kitty disappeaed between a very slim crack in a door that led to the crew quarters.

She reappered a few moments later smirking and proffered a small jewelry box "The KItty found a shiny. Would the Pretty like to have it?" She asked tilting the box's lid open just a bit. Inside was a pretty beautiful necklace of well worked silver, with a green gemstone

[member="Niyla Alura"]

 

[scarletsurf]

Niyla waited patiently, she thought about following the cat person but she knew there was no way she would fit through the space. After about 5 minutes Niyla started tapping her feet, come to think of it she wasn't really all that patient. Though she liked to think so.

When Lizzy returned, a small box in hand, Niyla perched her head out of curiosity. "What's that?" Niyla asked with gazing eyes, though when she pulled it open to reveal a necklace, with beautiful green gem inside the zeltron couldn't help but lick her lips, as if it was a habit or something. Though what really surprised Niyla was when she offered it to her.

She stood and walked over to Elizabeth, Niyla took the box and admired it, not really her type of treasure but she wouldn't lie when she said it was nice. Being a smuggler Niyla could tell what was real and fake, and something like this wasn't fake. Niyla laced her finger around it and looked back to Liz. She stepped closer to the cat person and placed her long fingers on her cheek. "Thank you dear; it is beautiful." Niyla smiled, however her face then became lost.

"But I want you to have it." Niyla took the necklace and pulled Lizzys hair back, placing it around her neck.

"So you will always remember me when you wear it."

[member="Elizabeth Verdan"]

 

[Tanith Alde]

Lizzy blushed ligthly when Niyla brushed her hair aside. "Kitty wouldn't ever forget the Pretty" She promised "Kitty has had such a nice time with her so far anyway" She admitted. Niyla had been so kind to her in comparison to most of the people she had met.

Kitty couldn't help it. She took a step forward and wrapped her arms around Niyla, hugging her without comment, well except for the soft purr that came from the Felacation. "Allright...Im ready, Show me this circus of yours" She said taking a step back all cheerful and back to normal.


She could still feel the pink haired girl's fingers on her cheek even after they had begun to walk, and this made her blush the entire way there. She shook her head, No she didn't like her like that...Did she? Kitty wondered at that herself

[member="Niyla Alura"]

 

[scarletsurf]

Niyla smiled and she hugged the girl back. "I'm gad." She let her go and stepped off of the cruiser, leaping to the ground. Niyla landed and she looked around the shipyard, getting there would only take a hour at the most. She had remembered the path she took to get there, and all the stops she salvaged at. In fact her pack was starting to weigh her muscular back down.

"Well, I'd love to show you but we're going to have to get there first. It is getting pretty dark outside so we'll have to watch our backs for wamprats."

Niyla pushed a small button on her belt and a bright light lit the surrounding area. "Perfect. Let's do this!" She bit her lip with a light grin and started walking forwards, making sure to step over the multiple holes and old junk that lay on the dirty ground.
