The Nightingale began shaking rather violently upon reentry, metal clanging against metal as each part collided with one another. The expression of the pilot held no worry or fear however, a neutral expression upon her porcelain features. Liliana had landed the hunk of Durasteel more than once and not a single time had it ever been smooth. It was an older ship, a Ziphonic model that they'd acquired at a rather uncharacteristically low price for such a nice looking and sizable ship, but wear became evident once the take off thrusters kicked in for the first time. Despite looking rather nice the Nightingale always felt one unfortunate ding away from complete disaster.
That hadn't stopped Liliana from pulling into the small spaceport rather hurriedly, landing the transport freighter with a screeching sound of metal on metal until it came to a halt finally. The girl lurched in her seat from the rough landing, silently thankful that she'd stayed sitting until the ship stopped moving. A moment later and she was excitedly racing to the location of the cargo bay doors. This wasn't the fun part of the journey, but it was the first step. The ship should have been fully stocked with supplies and that meant it was almost time to go hunting. For the first time of course, but how hard could it really be?
When she arrived at the exit to the ship she pressed the button without looking from memory, borderline childish in her pent up excitement. The sound of gasses venting as the atmosphere equalized rang throughout the hull of the ship, but it was quickly overshadowed by the sound of rhythmic clawed paws clanging threateningly against the Durasteel flooring. Liliana let out a sigh before turning around to face the large Veran Fox that had come bounding after her. "No, we're not getting off the ship Aurora. Go lay down or something," the raven haired female ordered with a roll of her eyes before returning her attention to the now open cargo ramp. The vulpine returned a quizzical cock of it's head before laying down on the spot, a dejected look now befallen the previously excited Veran.
"Ships all set to go once you're on board," Liliana called out to the spaceport assuming her friend had waited nearby like she hoped, much to the confusion of several workers who returned cautious glares to the rambunctious girl. Lili didn't really mind it though. She was honestly used to people giving her the odd look here and there, especially when she was alone. Just because she was younger than they expected didn't mean she couldn't handle herself out in the world! Well, the creature hunts would prove that more than her words ever could. They were bounty hunters now, well for monsters mostly, and one day they'd be the best the galaxy had ever known. First they needed credits though...
