*Kyle draws his hand out of his pocket clutching a little jar. Inside the jar is a tiny crab. He holds it out to her*
I was building him a castle when I came here.

:::Kara squints into the jar:::
Wow..! look at that. It's a... I don't know what that is. It looks like a tiny Jikspar...
:::She smiled up at him::: you were making a castle out of sand for him huh?

*Kyle nods* I wanted to take him home, but my mom said no, so I was building him a home instead.
His name is Thx'khrgtz, and he is an emperor from an alien race sent to earth to steal the brains of humans, but... humans looked a lot smaller from space...

hahahaha... :::She can't repress it, but after she catches a breath, she pokes the jar with her forefinger:::
Silly little alien... he should have known better. Well. I'm sure Thx'khrgtz will be more than satisfied living in the castle you build for him. He even gets to live right on a beach. I bet that's wonderful.

Do you live in a castle?

:::She nods:::
I do... The whole place is spread over half a mile, and if you look down onto it almost looks like one of these flowers :::She picks one out of her hair and shows him:::
All the floors are made of very smooth, cold hard stone so it feels good on our feet after we walk in hot sand. There are no walls on the outside of it, so people can walk in whenever they want... and cool their feet. :::She points at the center of the flower::: I live in the very middle.

:::Kara smiles endearingly at the boy:::
I guess it is...
:::She had taken for gratented a while ago how lucky she was to be so well off... particularly because of the trouble she was facing then:::
:::she twirled the stem of the flower between her fingers::: My mother built the castle for me...
:::And just like that she had faded away:::
*Exit Kara*

*Kyle watches her disappear sadly* Goodbye, Princess...
*He looks at the crab in the jar and sets it on a table. Then, he wanders back behind the bar to find himself a Coca-Cola*

::Sato fades in, helmet in hand, and wearing full flight uniform::
-o joke, I told that b*****d that he....
::Sato shakes her head::
Man, I'm NEVER going to remember what I was saying when I get back. Figures.
::She looks around but doesn't see anyone::
Peace and quiet. Sweet.
::She starts walking over towards the bar::

::Sato hears the loud hiss and stops dead in her tracks, drawing her blaster and holding it in a low-ready position, aimed at the floor at an angle. She calls out::
HEY!

*Startled, Kyle yelps and drops the bottle, and Coca-Cola sprays everywhere. He hunches behind the bar and tries to remain out of sight*

::Sato's eyes narrow at the yelp. She holds still for a moment, and hears some rustling from behind the counter. She hunches down and silently moves along the side, coming just around the corner, her back to the bar. She reaches into one of her belt pouches and pulls out a spare plasma core for her blaster and tosses it over the bar, in the opposite direction from the side that she's on and swings around the corner to the other side, blaster aimed....::
