He was said to be the best, this Captain Naismith.

That was probably why it took her so long to find him - as it turned out. He was quick and clever. A hard man to track down. But she doesn't have a choice, she must find him. She must. Though whether her doing so was purely down to her ability tracking him, or him following the word that someone was looking for him - didn't matter. Because to a certain degree, discreet.

After all, if word got out the Queen of Jhansi was trawling through mercenary rings looking for help - would be disastrous, to say the least. Her enemies would pounce when she was too far away to call for help. Had to be done, and had to be done fast. She doesn't have time, her people don't have the time. She must find him, ensure his services to her, and not turn back until she wins.

So when she gets word that she's found him - it's a palatable relief. Every day has been too long. She prepares as best as she can - it's been a long time since her meetings were anything but barked orders in back rooms, though this one isn't going to be much more. In fact, sneaking in through his rooms, in the dead of night on Earth of all places is... well, it isn't ideal. But it would have to do, moving through shadows the years of war had taught her to do, at least meant she wasn't likely to get shot. Her blaster at her side, though she hoped she wouldn't have to use it, as she hauled herself up through back windows to get into the build where he was staying. She didn't want to alert his men - or anyone else for that matter. So much of this depended entirely on that secrecy.

It makes her quiet as she slides the window open where he's sleeping - but she doesn't want to startle him into shooting her, so she lets her feet fall louder, heavier. As she goes from that bathroom it looked like - in the bedroom. A woman armoured, wearing the blaster for sensibility, and the sword for honour's sake, at the other. Hard-eyed, and sharp. Waits, as she creeps into his room - her reports said he would be here at this time, so there was nothing else but to wait and see.
