[b]Loretta[/b] [i]"He knows nothing a little... pain, won't shake loose. Though I suppose, a lot of pain would be more entertaining. For me."[/i] [hr] "One minute till touchdown Sir." Loretta straightened her ISB cap and nodded at the Trooper. He wouldn't have dared to address her as Ma'am. She had worked hard for her position, she had earned it. It was her right and she would wear the title until the day she died, which would not be for a [i]very[/i] long time. Especially if her excursion to Boonta was successful. Though, her projections as of yet were inconclusive. There were far too many variables to account for and her experiment was not her only objective here. There were others especially when regarding a planet of such significant importance, the fact that when trying to arrange her laboratory that she had only had contact with the Colonel of the Imperial garrison was somewhat suspicious. Though from her digging she had learned that the Governor liked to, over indulge. That wasn't her concern, if the governor could perform his duty to the Empire then who was she to judge in personal habits. Yes it was the ISBs job to monitor everyone at all times, but only those who could pose a possible threat to the Empire. At either corrupting it or trying to break it. A Governor who liked to overindulge in private certainly wasn't her concern. It was upto the Moffs to ensure the Governors played ball, there were no loyalty officers to deal with high ranking officials. Loyalty was expected, dedication was expected, perfection was non-optional. She wouldn't touch him but if his habits endangered her objective, things would need to change. Suddenly, and it would not end well for the poor Governor that was for certain. The ship shook slightly as the repulsors cut off letting the landing gear take the load of the ship. Moving to the rear of the ship she waited with her hands clasped behind her back as the door opened. There was a hiss of air as the humidity and heat of the planet rushed to assault her senses. She was somewhat jealous of the fully body armour worn by Stormtroopers, fully air conditioned and regulated. Not that she would ever show her discomfort. She walked down the ramp and cast her gaze off in the horizon as she heard the applause, and the sound of the AT-ATs. Obviously the Governor put on a good show, though she rolled her eyes at the sight of AT-ATs. Such wasteful machines, they were strong. They were intimidating, and yet... they were massive targets. Far less efficient than their predecessors. She'd show them that. The hum of her ship grew as her shuttle took off again, turning on her heel she watched as it departed as another shuttlecraft came into range. No doubt the Governor. As it flew overhead to enter the landing pattern a gust of air buffeted her, a lesser officer would have almost lost their hat. She was no lesser officer as she stood her ground, she had no time for this dilly dally or this party. She would meet the Governor, and find our where her lab was. That was the end of story. [hr] [b]Rael[/b] [i]"What the Empire doesn't realize, is it's built on a foundation of lies, pain and death. When this comes to light, when people accept. They will rise up, and shake it down from below and then we have a Galaxy truly worthy of life."[/i] [hr] [i]"Long live order, long live the Emperor, long live this great Empire!"[/i] Rael rolled his eyes [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TouCl6yp13A]as music[/url], applause and the words from one of the largest humans he had ever seen (And it wasn't muscle that made him so large) assaulted his ears. He had to admit he was pretty stood back and appreciated the [i]size[/i] of the AT-ATs. They were truly vehicles to marvel, their raw power and [i]strength[/i] was just so... He'd swoon if only for the thought that he knew without a second of hesitation they'd fire on him if they knew who he was, what he had done and... yes. What he was about to do. He began moving through the crowd, he could easily part it with his four arms though instead decided to just move with the flow of the crowd. So far in one direction before turning and letting it carry him in another direction. Like floating in a stream and letting it chose a path for him. Though he knew his destination, he just didn't want to stand out. Today was one of the few national holidays throughout the Empire and of course everyone was just... living. It was ironic really. People got to be as free as possible on the anniversary of the Empires formation. That was something he wouldn't let them get away with.
