Preparing for a mission 9/10/21

[Anatketani]

After speaking with Fihn Astra headed to the garden. she found a nice spot in the grass to meditate. Force herself to calm down and bring her emotions under control once again. A task that proved near impossible she was too agitated for meditation to work. so for the first time in several months she got to her feet ignited her lightsaber and started practicing the basic moments for form 2.

The hum of her lightsaber was a comforting sound. as she worked to throw the form her mind slowly cleared. As she realized three things as her mind cleared one the incident with the battle baster was her fault, to she was not angry with Ava for this but herself. finally, it was not Ava she did not trust but the people around Ava. once she had worked throw all of that she could feal the tension leave her. She deactivated her light-saber and settled once again to meditation. "I need to get my emotions under control, I can not let them control me. I will not let them control me anymore" she said quietly.

Ava was in her study relaxing on the couch with a glass of wine in one hand and putting a new entry into her dairy on the holo recorder in the other hand. This was her way of centering herself after doing something that she didn't wanted to do. Unfortunately she was given no choice, though it did turn out nicely. Being informed now she had two ships apart of the task for lanus including the ship she was planning to take. Wondering if Astra was going to seek her out to talk to her when she was ready to.

After about another few moments of meditation Astra went looking for Ava. It was not hard to guess where ava would be. " Hi Ava am I intoruppting you" she asked. It was clear that Astra was a great deal calmer now then she had been earlier. " did you notice Finh acting strange earlier or is that just me" she asked after a moment.
Governor Ava Forma — 09/11/2021
Ava shook her head looking over a data pad now since she finished her entry. Knowing the three ships going to lanus was going draw alot of attention from the attacking forces. She was plotting a good tactical situation how to hold them back as well the new numbers on how many they be able to save. Needing a break from it. As she turn the screen off " no your not interputing me. " as she listened to the question. " what do you mean Astra? "
Astra  Korraay — 09/11/2021
" he was less talkative than normal," astra said worry in her voice. She frowned shaking her head. " Ava im sorry for my outburst earlier.  I know you can be trusted I just don't trust these people you have surrounded yourself with" she said gently.
Governor Ava Forma — 09/12/2021
Ava titled her head at that mostly cause these people work for her. She thought about how she wanted to address this. It was clear Astra wasn't aware what everyone does. Though Ava understood since she hadnt really had Astra around them to get to know them. She wondered where to start exactly as well. " well thats a little unfair assessment. Though understandable since you haven't gotten to know them. I can actually see where you are coming from. If you was around a group of strangers and I only knew there names. I would probably be in the same boat. All I can do is give you a better understanding. So who would you like to know about first? "
Astra  Korraay — 09/12/2021
" How about you assion, miss pound was it" astra said. There was clear distane in her voice. She had always had issues with assions and bounty hunters ever sense Roza died. It was only made worse when she found out that there had been two after her thanks to her grandfather. " I know it's not fair to juge her but I don't trust assions and bounty hunters for good reason. " she said.
Governor Ava Forma — 09/13/2021
" Ms. Pound loyalties are to Sun co and to me because my loyalties are to sun co. As long sun co is making profit. She has already proven to me her loyalty time and time again. Let me share with you one of my stories I have to prove this. " she softly spoke taking a breath before continuing.

" I was tracking the actions of the man in white. It came to my attention that the man in white had imploy two spies. Who where seen disguised as jedi. To Infratrade the jedi. " she paused for an moment taking a sip of her wine.

" And so when it came to my attention that these two spies had access your personal files. And so Ms. Pound was deployed to insure such information doesn't reach the man in white. "
Astra  Korraay — 09/13/2021
Astra lesioned " why, would who is the man in white and why would he want my file you know it's marked under my actual name I believe it is anyway," she said. She was just confused now.
Governor Ava Forma — 09/13/2021
Ava look at Astra " so if you recalled the man in white. Was the man you meet that was standing beside the former prime Minister. The man is literally a ghost with no file on who he is. However the way he dresses tells me he's a member of the church. She softly spoke. " that would be correct, if the jedi knew who you actually are and it was on that file.  As for why my guess would be to find out who you were. After all you did show up to meet him with me with rosa. I assume after that meeting he started planning to figure out away to get know who you are. "
Astra  Korraay — 09/13/2021
" but why im not important. I'm a random force user with a child" she said superior confused
Governor Ava Forma — 09/13/2021
Ava blinked at that statement. She pitch the bridge of her nose. " your the princess of Balkid currently and the daughter of the queen. " she softly spoke slowly. " since we are currently keeping a cap on that information. Anyone who decides it would be a great idea to figure out who you are could put you and your daughter in danger. "
Astra  Korraay — 09/13/2021
Astra giggled shaking her head. " I know that what I meant was how would he know to look father into who I was" she said finally.
Governor Ava Forma — 09/14/2021
Ava thought for an moment thinking back to when the first meet the man in white. " the answer is simple when you had said it yourself. The man in white had felt threatened by you. Well if I was threatened by someone I would learn everything about that person. So I can either bring them down or find something that would keep them in check from doing anything. Either way its was going be bad, if I hadn't been keeping a watchful eye on him. He would been successful at accessing your file and putting into motion whatever horrible plan he was thinking of. "
Astra  Korraay — 09/14/2021
Astra's eyes went wide. " I...i didn't know Ava. I'm sorry for all the trouble I coused you" she said quietly.
Governor Ava Forma — 09/14/2021
"With the man in white you haven't cause me any trouble. Just the recent events with the battle master that force my hand into doing something I didn't wanted to do. But I didn't have many options since I needed to fix it in order to get his ships. It was my fault I should inform you all that was at the party wasn't a force sensitive. That or I should asked you what you needed to asked. I thought you were going ask about what he does and pick his brain that way. Not insult the man though the slapping i found a little insulting but I cant tell him that cause I need his ships. " she explained
Astra  Korraay — 09/14/2021
" I was trying to pick his brain but he decided to treat me like a child. " she said shaking her head. " It just the entire conversation went south and well I wish I had not spoken to him at all now. " she said quietly.
Governor Ava Forma — 09/15/2021
" what exactly was the exchange maybe I can have a better understanding what you said that made him react. So in the future instend of not saying anything to anyone. You just know what subjects to avoid saying. " ava softly spoke. Knowing Astra wasn't going be a mute but maybe she could help her in what she can say.

Astra  Korraay — 09/15/2021
Astra shook her head. " It does not really matter Ava the damage has already been done" she said.
Governor Ava Forma — 09/15/2021
" without knowing where the problem was you can't learn from it Astra. However I shall in this case drop this one and inform you the type of event that's going on. " since Astra didn't wanted to tell her. She had to do it that way unfortunately.
Astra  Korraay — 09/15/2021
Astra shook her head. I have wanted to know how they had known about the attack I was curious if it could have been prevented." She said finally
Governor Ava Forma — 09/16/2021
Ava listened and thought it over. Thinking about how would that lead to the slapping. Taking an moment to tactically think about what she had saw and what Astra had said. " though it may not be the most effective way. I belive he showed you. If you don't know about a coming attack there is no way to prevent it. If I was to raise a hand to you right now, you would know. Cause I just said something to tigger that insist to watch me closely. However if say someone would charge though that door and pull out a gun and neither of us were paying attention. Well now thats another story neither of us would been aware. When Balkid was attack we was caught unaware. There was no warning, no talking, no one reached out before had. These attackers are no better than the ones that blew up Alderaan in my universe. All we can do is learn and defend ourselves like we did when it happened. Now I did try to get them to stop them but the only option they gave was for Balkid to lower its shield and surrender. Which would be a foolish move to do since in lowering the shield and hoping they won't continue to fire honoring the surrender. Would been very risky and a mistake. When something happens like an attack you can't always prevent it specially if you don't know that its coming. " hoping Astra understood better.
Governor Ava Forma — 09/16/2021
@Astra  Korraay
Astra  Korraay — 09/16/2021
Astra shook her head "  they know the attack would happen three days before it happened." She said quietly.
Governor Ava Forma — 09/16/2021
Ava thought it over knowing that information however. Their time had drawn to a end as she was told they were ready for departure to lanus. Ava and Astra headed off the ship to take off for thire mission to lanus.
