*Atalanta shrugged lightly.* "Wherever you want to go. I'm not picky... Although we might want to avoid any place where they get a lot of swoop fans..."

"Why would we want to do that?" Denan was a bit confused. Why would she care about swoop fans? And which bars would they be at anyway?

"Swoop racing isn't very big around here so I had no problems winning the race earlier today... I don't need anyone staring at me or bugging me about it, and if they realize I'm a Jedi then they'll start complaining about how it was unfair because of my Force abilities and..." *She stopped realizing that she was rambling and being a little bitter.* "Well, you get the idea."

"Ya I understand. There was a race today? I missed it." As they walked down the street he spotted a decent looking drinking establishment. "How about this place?"

*Atalanta nodded.* "Fine with me." *She headed for the door.* "I almost felt bad for winning those credits... People around here have so little experience that they really didn't have much of a chance against any racer from Ord Mantell..."

Denan headed for the bar looking over his shoulder. "What's your poison?" He spotted an empty table and motioned to Atalanta to take it.

"Whatever you're having... I can handle anything." *Atalanta smirked slightly before taking a seat at the table he had pointed out.*

Denan wasn't so sure about that. He ordered the strongest drink the bar had and sat down at their table trying not to smile. "Anything?" With that he downed a shot quickly, so as not to taste it.

*Atalanta gave him a not so innocent smile before downing her own drink, focusing on ignoring the taste and sensation.* "Anything..." *She smirked slightly and tried not to think about the angry wookie that she would have to face later...*

Denan could hardly believe she drank that. Even he had trouble getting it down, and he was used to the stuff. 'Better to let it go' he thought. "So what happened to you after you left Ord Mantell?"

"Not all that much... Mahtocca, the wookie who found me after... well... what happened... I'm not sure how many people heard about that and I can't remember much of who I told afterward..." *She shook her head lightly lowering her gaze.* "She'd just graduated from Skywalker's academy on Yavin. But she brought me to Corellia. She'd been living there before the fall of the Empire so she already had a nice home and raised domesticated animals for a living. She took control of the pet farm again when we got there... She thinks that taking care of all those animals gives me respect for life and some sense of peace..." *She shrugged lightly.* "So that's where I've been for the past six years... Training every day... It turns out that I have a great deal of control of the mind after all that time bargaining with smugglers and dealing with pain every time I screwed up. So I can do a great deal of things if I focus hard enough..." *She glanced pointedly at the empty glass, smirking slightly.* "Every now and then we get a mission... It gets interesting when you're walking through the streets with a wookie and you've got a lightsaber at your hip."

"I wouldn't know about that." Hearing her talk about Corellia made him think of home. "I'd like to go back there someday, to Corellia I mean. I'll have to look you up. Animals would be an interresting cargo to try and smuggle. At least it'd be an interresting story to tell."

*Atalanta laughed a little.* "You'd have to get past Mahtocca... For a wookie, she's quite attached to those animals... Somehow I don't think she would trust you with them..." *She smiled softly...* "In fact, I don't think she'd trust you with me right now if she knew exactly what you are... I suppose I'll just have to keep it a secret."

"What's that supposed to mean?" He laughed a little. She meant a smuggler of course. "I'm a pilot, what's wrong with that? I pick up a cargo and drop it off. So what if it's not a legal cargo, I just deliver it and try not to get caught doing it."

"That's funny... Because the people that were responsible for burning my home to the ground did the same thing for a living." *She said it as lightly as possible, as though that didn't bother her at all, and even managed to smile.* "In case you haven't noticed, your associates aren't as peaceful or forgiving as a Jedi... You might cause trouble for me..." *She smirked slightly at him.*
