Tiaza paced the sitting area of her Coruscant hotel room. She had released her newest song three days on the holonet. There was a concert scheduled for a week from today. Her last song had been met with a surprising amount of fanfare. The Chiss songstress paced wondering if that was a fluke or if the name Tiaza was going to mean something in the pop music world.

The young Chiss woman had grown up in the grand works of opera and had been quite accomplished when she was forced to flee the Chiss worlds when her father's less than legal accounting practices came to light. On Coruscant Tiaza had minor rolls in the opera, but she was young and some folks were biased against her being a Chiss. She met a Muun named Sap Hot, who said he could turn her talent as a singer into a career. Tiaza was shocked when the Muun suggested that she sing pop music as opposed to the classical that she had been taught nearly from birth. But if it meant making a life for herself in music it was a change Tiaza was willing to take.

"Your pacing around will not change the results young one," the cool monotone voice of Tiaza's Muun manager came as the doorway hissed open. Though she was in motion Sap had not seen her pacing. But every time he had entered Tiaza's room this was the state she found her in.

"Do you have news?" Tiaza pleaded.

Sap nodded his head. "As I predicted, you are going to be a star, young one. It won't be long now til we will have too many credits to count. I am in the process of attaining a bigger venue for you next concert. This also means you will be needing your own security. There is not more depending on what is provided by the clubs and concert halls you are playing."

Tiaza gave a sigh. It was bad enough that Sap kept her on a strict schedule. Now her every move was going to be watched? "I don't need some grizzled washed-out security officer following me around all the time. It's just two songs. How dangerous can it be for me to walk down the street and get a meal? No old geezers. It'll be just as bad as anything that they will be protecting me from."

Sap gave a dismissive laugh, "You can't afford a grizzled wash-out veteran my dear. Not yet. By the time you are able to you will be quite happy to have one I would say. For now I have taken the liberty of making a hire." Sap waved towards the opened door to the hotel hallway. "Allow me to introduce your new bodyguard. Hilal Vizsla "

Tiaza huffed and with hands on her hips she waited in annoyance. When the bodyguard showed herself Tiaza's jaw dropped. Hilal was young and super cute. "You are going to be my bodyguard?" Tiaza questioned. Her tone was mostly excitement at the possibility of Hilal becoming a friend because they were so close in age, but had just a twinge of doubt as well.
