It has been about a week since the whole lesson in art of seduction and tensions have been running high, mainly between Widow and Hunter. They are obviously not sure of what to do, and how to move forward with the friendship, much less professional work relationship with how things went that day. Things have been going smoothly as normal thankfully for all of them but they have been called on a mission to assist the 501st and the 212th divisions on Anaxes.

Widow knew she was not quite ready to face the 501st just yet, so she opted out of the mission to infiltrate the base with her teammates. Instead, she was assigned to oversee the outpost on Ryloth. Before she departed on her solo mission, she wanted to see her men off. She gets up from her cot in the Barricks, and is off to the main hanger to see them off before she bought her own shuttle when she arrives she finds all of them in doing various task. Wrecker and loading explosives onto the ship, Crosshair is cleaning his rifle while sitting on a crate, Tech is currently putting a panel back on to the Havoc and Hunter is making his way towards Widow.

Once he makes his way to her, he can't help but notice that Her eyes had roamed almost anywhere but his own eyes. He knows that what happened between them as intense but he wants to see what he can do to rectify the situation and to make sure that there is no awkward tension between them. "Are you sure you don't want to come along with us on this mission Widow?" He says as he makes his way towards her stopping to lean on a nearby crate. She lightly smiles looking directly at him leaning on the same crate as him with her chin resting in the palm of her hand "oh yeah I'm sure. I have issues with some of those in the 501st" Hunter nods at her in understanding, he sighs as he examines her face. "Do you want to take about it?" He ask softly. Widow glances down, looking away from Hunter for a brief moment, and looking back up to him "Maybe when you guys get back? I don't want you to go in to this mission with them already on negative mindset because of my personal feelings." She pauses and smirks "Besides they're all Regs and I already know you guys normally don't work with them so I don't want to make tensions even higher than what they will be." She chuckles lightly. Hunter smirks at her "I can respect that." He pauses as he leans away from the crate, walks towards widow and stops in front of her  as he gazes down at her "Although I'm holding you to this story between you and the 501st when we get back" he quietly says. She leans off the crate and looks up at his grayish brown eyes "Well Sergeant make sure you and the team make it back first, then I'll tell you the whole story" she grins slightly and turns away from him. Leaving a flustered Hunter behind as he walks back to the Havoc for take off to Anaxes.

As widow is making her way down to the hanger to depart she lets her mind wonder. 'I know I need to do something about the relationship between Hunter and I I'm just not sure what direction I want to go with it.' She sighs as she makes it to the hangar. ' I really do appreciate him and the welcoming I've received since joining the crew, but am I willing to compromise not only his feelings, but mine, if we were to pursue something?' She pondered more to herself as she's going in full auto pilot mode to get her shuttle ready, ' i'm not even sure if he feels the same way about trying to explore more into a different kind of personal relations with me though'  She stops what she is doing as she finishes assembling the last piece for her starfighter to make the journey to Ryloth. 'I just need to focus at the main task at hand and figure out everything later with Hunter.' Widow silently hold that being away from the bad batch for a while, will help her clear her mind and get her back to the no attachments no matter what mentality.

Her flight to Ryloth was complicated free. She was incredibly happy when landed onto the platform just to breath in some fresh air for the first time in a long time. Widow couldn't help but remember when she came to this planet with the 212th and General Kenobi, she's smiled to her self as she remembered the sweet exchange between the 212th boys and a little one who is a local looking for her family. The little Twi'leki kept yelling out to both Waxer and Boil "Nerra! Nerra!" As they were all waking away, Widow was walking next to Obi Wan as he was asked what 'Nerra' meant, She couldn't help but smile at the memory of Kenobi saying "It means brother".
