[Aisha Klan Klan]

OOC: more of a story telling rp at the moment, but I’ll try to come up with more later. But for now, it’s mostly just a background history of Aisha’s life(and no it won’t be based on the Aisha from OS’s life)


::Far off on a distant planet, rain falls heavily upon a demolished city. The once grand, towering, picturesque buildings lie in ruins, looking as though the town was the victim of a very large earthquake. Dead bodies and mounds of rubble litter the streets, set ablaze by now dying flames, sending up billowing clouds of smoke that cover the city in a dense haze. A dazzling flash of light illuminates the city briefly followed by the clamor of thunder. Another flash falls across something that appears to be still alive in the midst of all the destruction. A young cat-like girl is visible on her knees crouched by the body of a woman. Blood flows freely from a jagged wound in the woman’s chest but the girl stands by the body refusing to move even in the torrential downpour. Her hair and clothes are soaking wet as she shivers slightly from the cold. Tears stream down her face as she mutters incoherently in her grief. She shakes her head briefly as the blood from a gash on her forehead drips into her eye. Reaching up a hand to wipe the blood away, she also brushes her rain soaked smoky gray hair out her face. Her ears flicker as a small sound catches her attention and she raises her head to pinpoint its source. Her icy blue eyes look up to see a shadowy form coming towards her. Narrowing her eyes angrily, she rises to her feet and holds her ground not wishing to leave her mother’s side::

Don’t come any closer, I’m warning you!!-the girl

::The figure ignores her and continues to come nearer, causing the girl’s breathing become ragged as her heart beats rapidly. Her muscles tense in readiness to defend herself although she has never before. But the pounding of her heart and the fear of the unknown stranger sent chills down the girl’s spine. Questions race through her head like “Why won’t this person just leave me alone? Why is this happening to me?” as the dark figure nears, looming up out of the smoke like an undead demon of the night. The figure’s eyes glow eerily as the light of the dying fires flicker within them as he comes ever closer. The girl bares her teeth and claws as she awaits her uncertain fate. The seconds tick by in tune with the girl’s heartbeat as the stranger draws nearer to her. When the figure gets within a few feet of her, the girl flattens her ears back to her head and leaps at him with claws outstretched. But before her claws can hit their mark, she is thrown as the figure grabs her by the wrist and throws her into the side of a nearby building. The already ravaged wall crumbles as she impacts with it sending up a shower of dust. Glaring at the figure with a glare that would fill anyone with a feeling of malaise, the girl rises shakily to her feet.::

Don’t you dare harm my mother or I will kill you-the girl
::The sound of laughter fills the air as the figure smirks:: There is nothing you can do for her, she is gone-the figure
I don’t care, I will defend her with my life if I have to, it’s what any Ctarl Ctarl would do-the girl
How brave of you, maybe you’re not so weak after all-the figure
How dare you!!!-the girl ::growls and starts to move towards him::
I wouldn’t do that if I were you unless you want a worse headache. Now just stay still for a moment so I can show you who I am then maybe you’ll think twice about attacking me again-the stranger ::says as he throws back the hood of his cloak, revealing himself as another older Ctarl Ctarl::
::The girl’s eyes widen in shock and confusion* You? Himari?
So you do know my name, that’s good. I’m here to help you not kill you, now will you trust me?-Himari
::the girl nods weakly::
Good, now let’s get you out of this rain.-Himari ::says as he picks up the now very tired looking girl and carries her away from the destruction::

[Aisha Klan Klan]

::Back in the present::
::The now 21 year old Aisha tosses and turns in an uneasy sleep:: Mother!! Father!!! NOOO!!! ::she yells as she quickly awakens in a cold sweat. She covers her face with her hands as she tries to deal with the memory that is haunting her:: Why can’t I forget that day? Why does it haunt me so? ::She drifts back to the memory of what happened before Himari found her::

::Begin Flashback::
:: It was supposed to be just a business trip with her parents while they worked out a treaty with the Rigans, but what was to be a day of peace soon turned deadly. Aisha can be seen walking with her mother and father through the town of Taryasin, smiling widely without a care in the world as most children do. But in the dimly lit alley of two nearby buildings, a figure waits in the shadows::

I’ll be glad when these treaties are final so we can get back home-Aisha’s father ::says while smiling at the playful antics of his daughter as she tries to see as much as she can of the town::
Me too, the wars fought between us and the Rigans were horrible, I’ll be glad when this is all over. Shouldn’t we be going back to the ship to report in? Himari won’t be pleased to find us dawdling
around-Aisha’s mother
In a little bit, Aisha is having fun. A girl her age should see as much as she can so she won’t miss out on anything-Aisha father
You won’t live to see another day, Ctarl scum-the shadowy figure ::smirks as he takes out a small detonator::
::Aisha’s mother notices her daughter beginning to show the signs of fatigue and picks her up. Just then the figure smirks as he readies to push the button on the detonator:: My final job, but it will be worth it to rid the universe of some of those monsters. This bomb ought to take out this entire town and kill virtually everyone in it-the bomber ::says and pushes the button::
::The small town is hit by a explosion that shakes it brutally as the shock-wave decimates the town into rubble. A few minutes later, Aisha opens her eyes and winces in pain as the weight of something pins her to the ground. Coughing as she breathes in the thick dust, Aisha pushes the object off of her and her eyes widen in shock as she sees that is the body of her mother:: Mom, are you okay?-Aisha ::yells but then notices blood oozing out from a large wound in her mother’s chest. Torn by grief, she falls to her knees, not caring at all about the rain that begins to fall from the rapidly darkening sky::

::End Flashback::

[Aisha Klan Klan]

::Back in the present::

::Aisha looks up at the stars that glimmer over her as a small fire burns beside her:: My life changed entirely by the events of just one day. If it wasn’t for Himari, I don’t know where I would be now. As young as I was, I probably wouldn’t have survived had he not helped me. I wouldn’t be the warrior I am now had he not showed me the way. Too bad that way has also gotten me into trouble over the years. What would mom and dad think if they knew their innocent daughter now lives the life of an assassin/bounty hunter. Who would have thought I would end up one of the most sought after outlaws around?-Aisha ::says quietly to herself as a small smirk crosses her face. The sound of a man’s laughter followed by the image of Himari flashes through her mind. She raises one hand to her face and traces the small tattoo under her left eye lightly with her finger, remembering the day she got it::

::Begin Flashback::

::Aisha rubs the side of her face just under her left eye as an older Ctarl man laughs:: Shut up, Himari!! This hurts like hell!!-Aisha
You’ll be proud of it later, it’s not every day you become a full-fledged assassin-Himari ::smirks::
Well I don’t like it right now, why do I need such a ugly mark of my face?-Aisha
It’s to separate you from the rest of the universe with a mark that instantly shows you’re not to be messed with. Besides the pain will go away soon and the color matches your eyes-Himari
*Aisha punches Himari just hard enough to send him sideways a few feet* Oh shut up!! You’re not helping-Aisha ::yells and begins cursing in Ctarl Ctarl::

::End Flashback::

[Aisha Klan Klan]

::Aisha yawns as she stretches and stands up to get ready for work:: Who would think an assassin like me would be working in a local repair shop? But it pays the bills, so it doesn’t really matter-Aisha
*she then gathers her belongs and walks towards the nearby town of Courasant. As she walks, she takes the time to remember her training with Himari::

::Begin Flashback::

::The leader of the Ctarl fleet sent to Rigan stands over Aisha who is rising shakily back to her feet. He smirks at his student’s progress, noting that most people wouldn’t be getting up after the hit he gave her. A slight glimmer shines in his eyes and a small tattoo marks his face just under his left eye. He remains pretty much untouched while Aisha on the other hand is having trouble staying conscious after that last hit:: Hehe, you’re doing well, take a rest-Himari
No, I’m fine-Aisha ::smirks::
You sure?-Himari
Yes, I’m sure-Aisha ::says as she walks towards Himari. Before he can react, Aisha moves faster than he can even blink and stabs him in the stomach with her claws then backhands him across the face::
::Himari winces:: Ow, I think you’re ready for your test now, ow-Himari
Hehe, good, that’ll teach you not to attack me like that, jerk-Aisha ::smirks as she walks out of the room::

::End Flashback::

[Aisha Klan Klan]

::As she walks into work, her boss yells:: You're late!!I'm not paying you for the time you missed!!
Yes sir-Aisha *says and mutters in Ctarl Ctarl*
What was that?-Boss
Nothing-Aisha
Well then get to work-Boss
Yes sir...jackass-Aisha *mutters under her breath*

[Spadix From HPC]

OOC: ya don't mind if I join in? if not I'll edit myself out.

*Spadix walks in and drops a droid on the desk in front of Aisha*
Spadix: I need this fixed, can you do it?
Aisha: Hmm, looks bad but I think so, I can have it fixed for you by tomorrow.
Spadix: Good, I'll come bakc tommorrow for it then.
Aisha: Okay, I'Ll charge you when you come back.
*Spadix walks out*

[Aisha Klan Klan]

::Aisha raises an eyebrow to the droid the stranger had left, odd burn marks mar the droid's surface and have seared most of the droid in several places. Aisha had seen these marks before that were made by lightsabers and knew the female that had just left must be a Jedi or a Sith. Over her few months time working for her boss, many such types of jobs had come in::
It's odd how it always melts the metal together. ::sighs:: It only makes my job take longer-Aisha (I may just need to steal one of those just to get over my curiousity) ::Aisha thinks to herself as she begins to fix the droid::

[Sanis Prent]

(Sanis walks in, carrying a small crushed pink object. He places the parts of it on the counter, and rings the bell for service)

[Aisha Klan Klan]

::Aisha's ear twitches slightly at the sound of the bell just before her boss yells at her to get the hell back out there and help the customer. She curses before wandering out to see who needs her help now. Her eyes briefly scan the destroyed droid before looking up at the man who had brought it in::
How can I help you, Sir?-Aisha

[Sanis Prent]

(Sanis removes his sunglasses, and gestures to the crushed equipment)

I had a visitor get a little too rowdy the other day and he smashed my droid module here. I've still got a warranty on the set, so I brought it by so you can repair it. If you can, I'd like to have it repaired in two days, cause I'm going to be busy soon.

[Aisha Klan Klan]

::looks at the remains of the droid* It's pretty messed up, I'll try but I don't think I'll be able to get it fixed in two days, but I will do my best-Aisha
You better!-the boss yells from the back
::Aisha curses briefly in Ctarl Ctarl before looking back at Sanis:: but if I work on it for most of today, I think I can get it done.-Aisha

[Sanis Prent]

(Sanis places a 100-credit chit onto the counter, as added incentive for making the deadline.)

Just see what you can do with it. Its rather important.

[Aisha Klan Klan]

I'll try, Sir...::and thinks to herself (what the hell happened to this one? looks like someone crushed it)::

[Aisha Klan Klan]

::Aisha yawns as she puts another wire back into place. The droid Spadex brought in is half finished but Aisha has chosen to switch jobs for awhile and work on Sanis’s droid. The droid’s eyes move around wildly unable to speak since Aisha shut off its voice-box after it wouldn’t stop telling her how to fix it. The droid moves one of its metallic arms in protest but Aisha pins it down with a heavy piece of metal::
Stop trying to shock me, droid. I’m trying to help you, I’m not the one who did this to you-Aisha
::It continues to struggle:: Will you behave if I turn your voice-box back on? I’ll take your lack of movement as a yes-Aisha ::says as she turns its voice-box back on::
Can you get this weight off my arm? Who are you? Where’s Sanis?-it yells
::raises an eyebrow as she removes the weight:: So that’s his name, huh? Well he brought you in after someone crushed you. And as for me, I’m Aisha- Aisha ::says as she puts the last piece into place and shuts the small panel door on the droid::
Am I done?-it asks
Yes, you are. It’s weird that you didn’t take as long to fix as I thought you would, but most of your damage was external and fortunately Sanis brought all of your parts in-Aisha
How long until Sanis said he would be back?-the droid
Um, that was this morning, well technically yesterday since it’s 3:00 in the morning, so in about a day from now he should come back for you. The only reason I’m still here now is because Yazar, my boss made me stay because I was late this morning. I’ll just stay here for the night, now be quiet while I get some sle---Aisha ::falls asleep in midsentence::

[Aisha Klan Klan]

::The next morning, Aisha awakens to see a pair of eyes just inches away from her face::
What are you staring at?-Aisha
I was looking at that peculiar mark under your eye, isn’t that the mark of an assassin?-the droid
::yawns:: Yes, but being an assassin doesn’t pay the bills-Aisha
::Yazar comes in with his usual gruff manner:: You fixed that droid, huh? Good, now you can finish that lightsaber droid-Yazar
Oh goody-Aisha ::says sarcastically as soon as Yazar is out of hearing distance and pulls out the droid that Spadix brought in. She soon feels the weight of something on her shoulder and looks to see Sanis’s droid sitting there, looking curiously at Spadix’s droid::
What happened to him?-it asks
Nosey little droid aren’t you? Since when do droids show any interest in each other?-Aisha
I’m not nosey, just curious-the droid
Sure you are. This one has lightsaber damage, I work on these all the time. I called the owner in asking for a few more days and I managed to steal this-Aisha ::holds up a saber stolen from Spadix:: I’ll only keep it until I’m done with this droid, I’m just curious as to how the saber does this kind of damage. The saber droids always take at least two days with all the rewiring that needs to be done and it might help to know how this happened-Aisha ::says as she begins to work on Spadix’s droid, slightly annoyed by Sanis’s droid constant presence but the droid’s babble does help break up the monotony of the day::

[Aisha Klan Klan]

::As it begins to get dark, Aisha looks up at the clock::
Good, my shift is over, but what to do with you?-Aisha ::says while looking at Marcus::
Don't shut me off-Marcus
I wouldn't, I guess I'll have to take you with me. I doubt your owner would like it if you went wandering off on your own-Aisha ::says as she gathers up her stuff and the droid once again takes his place on her shoulder. Aisha raises her eyebrow at this, but says nothing. She pulls the hood of her cloak up to cover her face and walks out the door. As she walks, she notices several keeping pointing at the pink droid and laughing slightly. Not needing to attract anymore attention to herself due to the bounties on her, she puts Marcus in the side of her hood for the rest of the journey until she is out of town. She keeps walking until she finds a suitable place to stay for the night, lights a small fire then looks up at the stars::

::The next morning, Aisha goes back to work as usual with Marcus asking constant questions while she works on Spadix's droid::

OOC: slight edit, mainly typos...I gtg...*Aisha teleports out of forum*

[Sanis Prent]

(Sanis walks back into the repair shop, looking around. Suddenly, a feline creature pops up from behind the counter, startling Sanis slightly.)

Jeez! Watch out where you do that...you scared me.

(Sanis looked around the shelves of the workshop...searching for his pickup)

So...you got my module repaired yet?

[Aisha Klan Klan]

Uh, yeah, he wasn't as hard to fix as I thought-Aisha
Well then where is he?-Sanis
::Marcus appears from inside of Aisha's hood:: Ack! stop doing that! Hehe, your droid won't stop hanging around with me but he wouldn't let me turn him off-Aisha

[Sanis Prent]

(Sanis picks up the module, eyeing it carefully, noting for anything abnormal. Seeing that all appears in perfect working order, he places the MARCUS module into his jacket pocket, and smiles.)

Thank you very much. You do good work, miss...?

[Aisha Klan Klan]

My name is Aisha, Aisha Klan Klan...btw, I case you hadn't noticed, you have a few ppl following you, they were following you last time you were here as well. I could scare them off if you want, repair work is only my day job, I don't have this tattoo for nothing.....

[Sanis Prent]

(Sanis looks over his shoulder, his left hand tracing the countours of one of his Corellian blasters in his side holster. People following him, eh? Well, could be business, but then again...could be something else entirely. Sanis smirked, looking back at Aisha)

Eh...let em follow me. If they have anything to say or do, I'll be waiting for them.

(Sanis smiled)

Nice to meet you, Aisha. You do good work here, I just may be back some time soon. Thanks for everything.

(Sanis waved, and walked out of the store)

[Aisha Klan Klan]

::smiles back:: nice meeting you as well-Aisha::says quietly to herself:: hmm, weird, not wanting help but oh well...::goes back in the back to work on Spadix's droid, noting how quiet it is without Marcus asking her questions every two seconds but it is still a little too quiet now without it::
bump...
