Location: Sphaera Tea Shoppe, Altiria/Annaris
The call had gone out on the holonet a short while ago. Kay had wanted to get her ship back. And although she wasn't much of a pilot, there was very much a need for it. A ship meant escape. A ship helped her to further hide from others, moreso than her little tea shoppe on Altiria/Annaris did. It was starting to become common knowledge among some of the political elite that she was there and alive, as evident of Arken Dobson visiting her shoppe to discuss the purchasing of products, as well to speak of her daughter Loreena Arenais-Valhoun . It made her wonder if she'd be somehow used against both her daughter and her son Caedyn Arenais , neither of which knew that she was alive. Such a thing would disrupt their lives and perhaps cause havoc. They were both powerful and influential people in their own right, and she couldn't be more proud of them. It would be far better to not have her return bring about a downfall to them.
The Free Lady.
That was the name of her first ship. Rarely did she ever pilot it. Her vessel was always flown by someone else for she wasn't very good at it herself. Too many switches, levers and buttons. Her skills lay in the political arena, as opposed to out in space. And before her own downfall, both Kay and The Free Lady were captured enroute from Commenor to Zakul. Her guards and crew were slaughtered in the close quartered battle that ensued before she was removed and her beloved ship jettisoned into space to float among the stars like any other bit of debris left behind after battle.
It was her hope that she'd find it, and that it'd be in tact.
Sasha Kryze answered her call, bringing with her a ship suitable for the mission. Sergeant Omen answered the call as well, being both an extra hand as well as someone that could help get The Free Lady running again, if it was broken.
Kay waited for them outside of her shoppe, sipping sapir tea. Her jaw clentched as she heard the familiar taunting laugh from one of her enemies that never ceased to leave her alone since her rescue from the Netherworld by Ghorua the Shark . And that was Lord Mayhem. The insane Arkanian and found a way to haunt her, even though she knew he was alive somewhere. She could feel it. And he enjoyed the gradual decent into madness that he was ushering in. Kay wasn't crazy, however Mayhem's invasion of her mind made it appear otherwise.
~Are we going off on a little adventure, Kay-Kay? As you know, you can't leave me behind. And you know how much I love a good adventure!~
She didn't even look at him, yet she knew that he was there, seated on the floor to the side of her cross-legged like a youngling waiting to hear a story. His black and white painted face made him look both comical and menacing all at once. Kay knew how dangerous he was and what he was capable of. And she knew that she was merely but his favourite toy to play with. At any moment he could dispose of her and so she walked the line of being entertaining for him, while also holding her ground.
"Yes...just try to stay out of trouble. This is important to me."
~I don't think that I need to cause any trouble. You've done that already. There are dead things in our future, Kay-Kay. Plenty of dead things. I can't wait!~
Mayhem was right, of course. And she hated it when he was right....
