*He settled down to wait, keeping a close eye on the human traffic that clogged the docking bay. He didn't suspect there to be too much, if any trouble: the ship was pretty damaged after all. A thief would most likely target a healthier looking vehicle. Still, it payed to be cautious.*

*Half an hour later, Aruna and Crash return. Both are weighed down with supplies to fix the shuttle. Aruna smiles at Marcastus.*
Thank you for watching our ship. *she says thankfully.*

*He had been watching a shifty looking alien merchant with half-closed eyes, but as Crash and Aruna return, Marc shifted his gaze to them* You're welcome. Did you find what you needed?

Mostly. *Aruna replies with a nod.* There are a few things we'll have to cobble together ourselves, but we managed to find the most important things.

How long do you reckon it'll take to fix your craft? *he asks*

*Aruna's gaze grows distance and she is silent as she swiftly calculates how long it might take to fix the shuttle. After several seconds she returns her attention to Marcastus.* Hopefully three days. *she answers.* It will depend on whether we have the supplies to cobble together what we weren't able to obtain today.
*She raises an eyebrow at him, a hint of curiosity in her hazel eyes.* Why do you ask?

Mainly out of curiosity, *He replies* Perhaps you might think me too presumptuous, but I am also curious as to how your craft got so damaged. Who opened fire on you?

*Aruna is silent a moment, considering her answer. Finally she speaks.* We were attacked because we disagreed with the government of our planet.

Disagreement. *He smiled, savoring the word* That could be my middle name. Only I must say I only tend to disagree with my employers, not with an entire governmental system. Or at least not openly.

We had very little choice. *Aruna states with a slight shrug.* What they wanted us to do was not right. So we were forced to flee.

Care to elaborate, or is this a rather sensitive topic?

That would depend on your point of view. *Aruna replies cryptically.*

*He shrugs, thinking to himself Guess it's a rather sensative issue.. * Well, it was nice talking to you then but unfortunately, I have things to do, people to meet, and places to be.

It was a pleasure meeting you Marcastus Olviren. *Aruna says formally, bowing slightly. She smiles.* Perhaps we will meet again.

Perhaps. Fate be willing. *He bows once, very briefly to her, and strides away*
