Noki stood at the side of the room, anxious to start looking for Deef, but they were right: It would be far too dangerous and irresponsible for her to go out and endanger these people. Besides, it was very likely that Rectja was now targeting those from The Merchant Fleet, and perhaps called a bounty on their own ship. Whatever the reason, it seemed like she, too, was being hunted.

Looking around the room, Noki noted the emotions she could feel from the various people and beings around her. Tal was scared, though you didn't need to tap into The Harmony to notice that. Others were optimistic, discussing and working through many possible plans of getting off world. The bizarre many voiced being called Oradis was not actually asleep, but was drawing up it's own plans in it's mind. Noki did not like someone who was constantly deceiving those around them, which was a popular instance on this planet. The large human, Zuzen, was different to all the others in the room. He burned with rage at the mere mention of Rectja's name, so harsh and instant it was, that it felt like a fire to Noki. Obviously, they had much unfinished business between each other.

It was then that Noki felt a piercing pain shoot up her side, where she had been shot by the local 'Law Enforcement Agents'. She looked down at the wound, and saw it was still healed from Vash's suit, when he'd saved her life earlier that day. Why then, does it hurt? Surely it should at least- Noki leaned against the wall, and placed her hand on her side, covering her mouth with the other. She coughed loudly for a time in an uncontrollable fit, as the pain started to get worse, and she winced as it surged through her again. She brought her hand away, and saw yellowish blood on her hand. A look of horror swept Noki's face for a brief second, before she quickly wiped her mouth and hand clean, and brought her attention back to the group, regaining her composure and doing her best to hide the pain that swept through her.
