darksisterShe sits at the door to the room she is guarding and closes her eyes to meditate. Counting her breaths, she lets the tension of her muscles release, and she straightens her back while cupping her hands in her lap as she sits in the flower pose her jedi master had taught her so long ago. She had little doubt she couldn't meditate and guard the door to the room she was forbidden to enter by her employer, her connection to the Force was still such she'd know of anyone approaching before they'd ever know she was sitting there with her eyes closed. And so she closed her eyes, opened herself to the Force, and let her mind drift...
She opens her eyes when she feels the approach of her employer and his bodyguards. She is beginning to have doubts about this job.
She remembers falling in love with Quinlan Vos. It hadn't been as deep a thing as she had struggled with in Obi-Wan, but it was there nonetheless. And it had lead to her death and a redemption of sorts. It had been the first time she'd really acted for another without any thought to herself. She hadn't weighted the outcomes or ways she could still profit from doing the right thing. She had just leap between him and Dooku's lightening. She still bore the scars from that as well.
She remembers waking from what she thought was death, floating in the Nightsister's Pool of Life with Ahsoka Tano looking down at her. Tano had aged, both in body and spirit, and the two had flown together for some time. She'd tried to convince Tano to partner with her as a bounty hunter, but Tano had rejected the idea. Something about having been hunted herself not making the idea of hunting others feel right. Asajj just shrugged and they'd parted.
She hoped Tano was well in this new galaxy with its Empire.
Her awareness spreads and she can feel the other room. The room she is not to enter by very specific command of her employer. She feels two presences within the Force yet only one body. Sensing closer, she realizes it is a pregnant woman.

Hello...
She hears the voice within the Force, another sensitive reaching out from within the room, and the desperation and pain from within that voice as well.
