"I didn't do anything!" Why does Callaghan keep assuming that this is his fault?
Fine. Enough of this. Krei draws himself up to his full height--taller than Callaghan--and squares his shoulders, determined that if he can't run from this fight then he'll just have to talk his way out of it. One doesn't become the CEO of a multi-billion dollar company without being able to negotiate, after all. He smoothes the front of his suit with one hand, an almost unconscious gesture, and takes a step toward the larger kedan.
"Look, if it's money you want, I don't have any of... your kind. Whatever it's called. I've only just arrived." Krei slides a hand into the pocket of his slacks, produces a slim fold of cash. "I don't know if this means anything to you, I've got... maybe a few hundred here? Or maybe you'd like my phone?" It's sleek and fairly impressive looking--it ought to be, it's the latest version from his own company, hasn't even hit the stores yet. He offers them both to the kedan. "Take them, with my blessing."
Alistair smiles as the kedan does so, assuming that the transaction is complete. He brushes the front of his suit again, starts to turn toward Robert with a look of triumph. "Now if you'll just excuse us--"
A right hook catches him square in the mouth, dropping him to the ground at Callaghan's feet like a dead weight.
oh don't worry someone's got you covered on that one
