That sounds like those damn cats. They call themselves the R'agur or... the R'uagar that's what it is. Apparently it means pack animal when you translate it to real language. They hangout around here and rob people like me, but I don't know where they actually are! All I know, is everyone says going around Jarta street after dark is asking for trouble with them. Will you let me go now?"
Raela used her arctisite to gradually leech kinetic energy of the man to slow him down, an effective way of restraining him without holding him tighter and risk hurting him. What have poor life decisions and or/conditions that may have contributed him being in this alley, Raela wasn't going to add to it by unnecessarily harming him. Upon getting this useful lead, Raela pulle turned the man around to face her and pulled him off the container.
"See, that wasn't so hard?" Raela began, staring into the mans eyes.
"Oh and one more thing," Raela continued, before pushing the man back against the container.
"Don't you dare tell anyone what happened here, ok? If you do, you might find yourself spending the rest of your life paralyzed from the neck down, got it?" Raela snarled. The threat wasn't sincere, not only was the Black Star going to be leaving the planet soon, Raela wouldn't ever stoop to crippling a poor civilian for revenge. She just wanted to scare the man into not being a problem.
Raela then pulled the man back off the container.
"Now get out of here before I decide to just cripple you now, I need to talk to my partner." Raela shoved the unkept man to the side, but not hard enough for him to fall.
Raela turned around to face her Noxial crewmate, Raela didn't like ever having to look up at anyone if she could avoid it, so she she hopped up and sat on the lid of the garbage container behind her.
"Hey, Errol, sorry to just appear unannounced. Also, please, don't spit in my food, I'm not actually planning on crippling him, even if I found out that he snitched. The guy is suffering more than enough being here. Just wanted to scare him off." Raela said, ever so slightly sheepishly.
"So, I suppose we'll be on Jarta street after dark?"

Raela was a bit curious as to what the precious cargo that they were to be securing was, but not quite enough that she'd bother asking questions. She was more interested in following the Sigal princess around. As she was starting to develop a habit of doing with fellow crew members she remained cloaked as she tailed the princess.
As Raela, being rather adept at counter-espionage in addition to her own capacity for stealth, she more than once caught a glimpse of Monica. At first Raela thought it was a coincidence, but it wasn't long after that before she realized she was also trailing the princess. Soon after Monica snuck up on Erina and wrapped an arm around her, Raela, still invisible, stood by and waited for an opportune time to reveal herself.

"I'd say that's a very safe bet, as I imagine that sort of activity is officially frowned upon by royalty and you don't seem to be the surreptitious type, Erina. As opposed to kitty here, who, metaphorically and probably very literally, oozes evidence of that." Raela said sardonically, as she dropped her invisibility and walked in front of the pair.
"Also, if I had to take a guess as to what Erina's bleeding heart is concerned about, it'd probably be the diseased people coughing their lungs out and walking around with sores. I think helping with that would count as unmaking trouble with the locals, if anything." Raela continued, her posture completely relaxed.
"Though to be fair to you, Kitten, I can see how doing away with diseases would seem to be trouble making to you, at this point retroviruses might compromise the majority of your genetic structure." Raela said, smiling at Monica, with her hands behind her back and slightly leaning forward toward Monica.
