HNN Interview (private)

[Halmtier]

Belas looked over the cockpit controls as they entered the atmosphere of Kuat. This was her first assignment at this planet and she grinned excitedly while the pilot steered them towards the capital, her destination the main government building for an interview with Senator Jiko Veelo.

Moving into the back, she began to prepare herself for the meeting. Holocorder, spare powercell, HNN identification badge, and a folder of papers regarding the interview were gathered into her bag. Pulling each piece out and making sure that they were in place, Belas felt ready once the ship touched down onto the landing pad.

"Allright kids, we're here!"
The pilot jested as he opened the main ramp. Belas had worked with Jekas for many years, and still he joked about her being a kid; not that it bothered her.

"Once we get into the building, you can head to whatever bar you've picked this time. I'll call you over the Com when I'm done."

"Aye aye, captain"

Stepping out onto the platform, a cool breeze greeted them along with the sight of hundreds of buildings. From across the platform, Belas spotted the Senator and bowed politely.

Hearing the ship from HNN arriving by one of her associates Jiko sighed. making her way out of her quarters she felt sad that she could not finish her paper work still she could finish it later. She made her way to the roof followed by 4 senate guards. Sh arrived on the roof as the HNN ship landed. Seeing the ship open she mad her way torwards the entrance seeing the HNN reporter bow she bowed in return going to shake his hand

"Glad to meet you finally."

The senator turned around walking with the reporter

"Shall we go inside as so we can begin the interview"

[Halmtier]

{{OOC: Belas is a girl, not a guy. =P}}

After shaking the senators hand, she politely followed her inside. The building was graciously decorating will all sorts of ornate furnitures and fixings, causing Belas to look around in awe. Every time she came to an official office for an interview it made her mouth gape, each palace more lavish than the last it seemed. Holding tight to her case, she went through the questions in her mind.

[Jiko]

After leading the reporter through the passageways of the building she finally made it back to her room of which she set 2 of her chairs aside for the interview. As she enters the room she sees the room she was working on before the reporter had came was open showing the mess of paper work. Jiko made a rush across the room but not to seem like a jog

"Please make yourself comfortable"

Jiko closed the door relieving a sigh of relief as she took her seat opposite the reporters.

"Shall we get to it then?"

Jiko wanted to get back to her work and the only reason she did this was to ensure her enemies that she was not standing down anytime soon

{{{ feel free to take this rp anywhere you may please}}}

[Halmtier]

Setting the Holocorder between the chairs, Belas leafed through her papers one more time before setting her whole case down beside her. Before flicking it on, she decided to explain the procedure to the senator.

"This will be a recorded interview, so don't worry If you need a second to answer some of the questions. Nothing will broadcast until our editing studio is done with it."

With that, she flicked the side switch and a small humming noise was heard before the Holocorder glowed a soft blue in silence. Clearing her throat, Belas began:

"First of all I would like to thank you on behalf of the HNN for allowing us some of your time to conduct this interview. I know you must be busy, so I'll get right on with it."

"How long have you been in office on Kuat?"


{{Feel free to only reply with the answers as speach and nothing else. From this point on, only the speaking lines will go to the HNN thread}}

[Jiko]

"I believe it has been 11 years now"

{{{ I am only going to post answers.}}}

[Halmtier]

Before that, how long were you engaged in politics, and what were some of your previous positions?

{{Sorry for the delay, I was out of the province}}

[Jiko]

"Before Politics I was thought by the Previous Senator for Kuat. Before that I was a Noble on Kuat."

[Halmtier]

In your time holding office, what reforms have you made to the political process on Kuat?

[Jiko]

OOC: I am a senator in the Galactic senate plus wasnt this meeting supposed to be on Coruscant

"I have not been able to implement change on Kuat due to my current workings in the Galactic Senate. I have uncovered many curropt officials and am still working to do so"

[Halmtier]

(OOC: eep! My bad. Your profile said 'senator of Kuat' so I assumed. >.<)

Due to your strong armed tactics against corruption, I'm sure you've made a fair share of enemies. Do you ever feel threatened or in danger due to your positions?

[Jiko]

"Oh all the time but no matter how much death threats and attempts on my life I made a vow to the republic in order to end corruption and bring peace to the people."

[Halmtier]

(Ack, sorry about the slow ass post time. To be honest I forgot all about this)

"And how has your campaign against corruption gone? HNN has reported on many of your reforms in the past, but we're curious on how you think the fight for truth is going?"
