At that precise moment, Celana happened to be Earthside in the middle
of a tennis match with the wife of a Federation Council member. It was the
first really active thing Celana had done in years, and her frail body had
taken quite a beating the first few times around to the consternation of the
Venasian doctor at the embassy. However, she had taken to the game, and was
starting to improve her skills a little.
Just as she served, she felt an overwhelming wave of hatred and
seething frustration take over her, and the ball torpedoed across the net
with uncharacteristic savagery.
"Ummm... Fault," Jane Kingery observed mildly from the other side of
the court.
"I'm sorry," Celana said hoarsely, fighting down the emotion coming
from Lasiter, "I don't know what came over me."

Selara pretended to mull it over. "I think we can manage to keep our
meetings private, dear," she said with a sly twinkle in her eye. She looked
at Garibaldi. "I'll also set have my people set up a false ID for me. If the
press does pick up on me, the false ID will at least confuse them for a
short time while they try to sort it out. From here on out, I'll appear to
be a respectable Venasian trader, docked at Spacedock for repairs."
