Theva leaned one hand impatiently on the war table between them, the other still resting on her lightsaber at her belt. “So?” she prompted when the Hutt still hadn't spoken. “What's the situation?” “Your Empire has been arranging alliances with the gangs on this planet.” the Hutt declared, “I, Javvaxxa, am content to allow you to continue to do this, however there has been… Complications.” Oh, this just kept getting better and better. Fighting to keep her composure, Theva hissed through her teeth. “What sort of complications?!” “Your agents’ meddling in the underworld has stirred up the anger of the Exchange. And this, the Hutt Cartel cannot allow.” The Chiss cocked her head to one side. “Are you threatening me, Hutt? I hope you know, that is not wise.” [i]You may be Force-resistant, but I can still kill you whenever I want.[/i]. The Hutt chuckled in amusement, waving his stubby arms back and forth. “No no, if I were threatening you, Sith, you would know it. However, I AM offering you an ultimatum.” She raised one brow at him, and said nothing. “The agents of your Empire have disturbed the natural order of things on this moon, and now Ukabi and the Exchange, our sworn enemies, are running rampant.” Javvaxxa’s large eyes swivelled to the Chiss in front of him, doing his best to try and intimidate her. “This is all [i]your[/i] fault. You and your Empire. Fix it, or you [i]will[/i] make an enemy of the Hutts.” Theva snickered out loud, straightening her posture and raising her chin in defiance. “I don’t take orders from slugs.” she sneered. “But, I will take a look at it. [i]Not[/i] because you threatened me-” the Chiss’ expression took on a ghastly grin, “-but because I might actually get to kill something, finally. Where can I find this ‘Ukabi’?” Javvaxxa laughed, loudly, loud enough for the Sith to let out an involuntary hiss of discomfort and abruptly shove away from the wartable. “Do you think it is that simple? If it was, I would have done it already! The man cannot be killed!” “He’s clearly not met the business end of a Sith’s lightsaber before.” Theva drawled, already growing bored of this. “Just tell me where he is, and I’ll go and kill him.” “The Corellian Sector, last we knew. See to it that you do, or the next time that I see you I will have your head, Sith.” the Hutt rumbled, before slithering off to attend to some other nefarious businesses. Theva, however, paused. With the room now empty apart from herself, she could be almost SURE that she sensed another presence of some sort. Someone who was watching her. Her teeth bared in a snarl, Theva cast around the room, looking for anywhere that may be a hiding spot. She checked the ground level first, behind the door, behind the stacks of crates, her eyes moving from one end of the room to the other. She passed over Rex’s hiding spot twice, not quite catching his gaze, though she did squint as if unsure what she could see. To the “empty room”, she called out. “I know you are there. How long have you been following me?” the Chiss waited for an answer. One minute, then two, three… When nothing came, she shrugged in annoyance to herself, and started for the door again.
