[IC] Universal Colony (MThePathSeeker/thatweirdchick)

[MThePathSeeker]

Like sat in his chair with his feet up against his table snoring lightly. His office was located in the borderline neighborhood between the slums and Babalon heights. His nap was however interrupted as he felt the heat signature of two people outside his door. Clients? Or thieves. With his flick of his wrist he activated the cloaking camouflage of his wrist gauntlet. He faded into the background as he opened the door for the two people before they had a chance to open the door

[ThatWeirdChick]

Mandy followed her caretaker inside. "Xandria, please just listen-" She quietly pleaded with the older woman. "Mandy, we spoke about this already. Everything is settled and all we need to do is get someone to transport you." Xandria looked around the office. "Marvelous. He's not here. Maybe another time..." She sighed. "Xandria." "Princess, please. Let me take care of this."

[MThePathSeeker]

So that's the job eh? A transport for this...princess. How boring but she was royalty so there would be big money involved. "Is that what you attend to hire me for? A transport?" He said to them deactivating his camouflage appearing right in front of them. He towered over them, his chest was covered in scars and his eyes and voice showed the signs of his non human nature. "Are you aware of who or what I am?" He asked them

[ThatWeirdChick]

Both Xandria and Mandy jumped and turned towards him. The older woman quickly composed herself. "A transport, yes. But also a bodyguard." Mandy shook a little. This was all so uncomfortable for her. "You see, Princess Mandy is to be married in a month and we have reason to believe that some may want to end her before that happens."

[MThePathSeeker]

He pondered on his next move. So she was royalty and a powerful one at that "And this enemy is to be frightened to the point of hiring me?" He asked pressing a few buttons to summon his clothing a long trench coat "Who is exactly this enemy?"

[ThatWeirdChick]

"Considering the amount of money they may just use to hire assassins, yes. Some Anti-Marriage humans and some Predators who really don't want this to happen. We know that with you, she is in capable hands."

[MThePathSeeker]

He raised an eyebrow when she said the word predator. It was the name humans gave to the Yautja. "By predator do you mean the Yautja?" He asked irritation in his voice by the choice of words she just used

[ThatWeirdChick]

Mandy had glanced at the door. She was pretty sure that at this point, Xandria wouldn't catch her and whoever this guy was didn't really care enough to catch her, even if Xandria paid him or managed to fix her mistake. "Oh...yes. Yatuja." Mandy started to inch for the door. It was still open so she could definitely run when she was close enough.

[MThePathSeeker]

He kept his eye on the girl even when his attention on the women in front of him. "That word is dangerous around us. If you tend to hire me please refrain from calling my people that. And also..." He said with a slight swish used his tail to close the door with force "Your princess was about to run."

[ThatWeirdChick]

She mentally cursed when he revealed her plans to escape. "Mandy!" "...I planned no such thing...just wanted to....wait outside." She mumbled. "In this situation? People want you dead!" "And I told you how to fix that..." "Stop being childish about this, it's your-" "I know. It's my duty to marry the Yatuja." She sighed.

[MThePathSeeker]

He heard those words. Marry the Yautja? His eyes turned cold as his tail coiled around the caretaker its harpoon like stinger aim and reward "You will explain. And it better be clearly. I have no problem with adding another trophy to my wall."

[ThatWeirdChick]

"P-Please release her! It's as simple as it sounds! One of the more powerful clans agreed to better their relations with humans by someone marrying one of their own. I was chosen and here we are."

[MThePathSeeker]

His eyes turned to the girl "Agreed? The Yautja don't just agree. There's only one way to get them to listen. You have to best them in what they what they do best. Hunting..." He looked at care taker "How many people died?"

[ThatWeirdChick]

"2,000." She sighed. "Just put her down, please." Mandy pleaded. Xandria was almost frozen out shock of how high the number was. "I didn't want to mention that to Xandria. But I guess the cat is out of the bag..."

[MThePathSeeker]

He saw the plead in her eyes and also saw she was telling the truth he dropped the care taker his tail uncoiling and slithering back to his side "Typical humans. Always do things without being fully prepared."

[ThatWeirdChick]

"Are you going to take the job or not?"She sighed. She hoped he wouldn't take it and it seemed like he wouldn't anyway. "Mandy, when did-" "I'll explain later, for now please wait." She stated bluntly.

[MThePathSeeker]

He towered over the little princess "This tribe....were they carrying eggs of some sort?" He asked he had heard a rumor some time ago about a tribe of some sort carrying xenomoprh eggs. This activity was banished long ago as this planets ecosystem was perfect for natural breeding instead of forced breeding. If this tribe was the one in question it would be a problem

[ThatWeirdChick]

She thought for a moment before quietly answering him. "Rumors suggest that they do..." She really didn't want to admit it to him, but that was what a lot were saying that about the tribe she was marrying into. She didn't know if it was true herself, which was frustrating but maybe she could use it as leverage to get out of the whole situation. "Seriously, if you don't want to, nobody is forcing you." She mumbled.

[MThePathSeeker]

He could see what she was trying to do with his eyes "I don't think you understand the danger this could pose little princess." he turned to caretaker "Tell your employer I accept but I will do things own way."

[ThatWeirdChick]

Mandy cursed him mentally. "Thank you so much." Xandria chirped. "When shall you start?" Mandy glanced at the door one more time. Why did they have to offer her up as soon as they realized that the aliens didn't care much and kind of hated them? Mandy thought back to her family and remembered. She clenched her hand into a fist in annoyance and anger.
