Ask Breaking into Frostbite Prison

[Kraud]

The Whiphid watched as The Jabberwocky moved through orbit followed by a Xi-class Light Shuttle, both crafts approaching the surface of Belsavis. The ice and snow-covered surface of the planet reflected the sunlight back to the freighter and the shuttle, making it hard for its passengers to see what they were heading towards. As they got closer and closer, however, he could finally make out the volcanic craters on the planet's surface. The craters were what made the planet habitable, and one of those craters happened to be their current mission objective.

The three Jedi accompanied a group of prison guards, the few soldiers who were brave enough to return to their facility. Due to the frigid climate it was easy to create isolated facilities on Belsavis. One of these facilities, hidden in a crater close to one of the poles, was the prison complex known as Frostbite Prison. A facility used to confine dangerous war criminals, mass murderers and generally the worst of the worst. But less than a month ago, a major outbreak had happened in the facility, presumably with help from the outside. This outbreak snowballed into a riot, and the prisoners had managed to take control of the facility. Only a few guards had gotten away, destroying what transports remained in the process. The guards who had been captured by the former prisoners were used as hostages, preventing any large-scale attacks on the facility. That's why it was up to the soldiers and the Jedi to take control of the facility, and get the hostages out of there alive.

It was going to be a difficult mission, but the Whiphid had faith in his allies and most importantly of all; in the Force.

With the facility finally in sight, Kraud spoke up. "Let's find a landing spot with some cover. We don't want the prisoners to know that we are here, or steal our only means off this snowball." It had been one of his concerns since the beginning, the possibility that the prisoners could escape. "It's quite impressive, isn't it..." he muttered, as the tall Knight left the cockpit to inform the soldiers aboard their ship that they had arrived.

Belsavis. The prison world, the literally icy prison of the galaxy. Mila had heard of this place in a few conversations, about lost tech from a bygone era buried in the core, prisoners that had been kept in stasis since the days of the Old Republic. It was all rumor of course, just like star-weirds and the lost world of Lego. Mila didn't believe in rumor, not exactly, but she loved to uncover these rumors and see what delicious truths composed them. That was her role in the galaxy, her calling as she saw it. Sadly, this was not their mission today. Some prisoners had gotten rather out of hand, and now there were lives at stake, least the poor captives meet their end. Even with Kraud being close by, Mila kept herself focused; though she'd be lying if she said her heart didn't beat a few paces faster when Kraud glanced in her direction. "We are on approach to Frostbite Prison. I'll keep it low, hopefully Brahe didn't uncouple the defrosters over the rear stabilizers, or this landing is going to get interesting."

The Jabberwocky dipped low, in it's wake small bits of ice flew loose and tumbled down from the cliffs, a warning indicator flashed across the main computer 'collision imminent', but Mila paid it no mind; the sensor on the bottom of the ship had long since been malfunctioning, she had a few more inches of maneuverability left. "For a prison, it's probably the prettiest one I've seen." Mila commented, as she rose a hand up and switched on the auxiliary power to the maneuvering jets. Mila brought the YT-1300 low, as the ship flew across a field of ice, weaving and dodging segment that were a tad too close to comfort. Once Mila felt she had gotten as close as she could manage, she found a small gap between two columns of ice, and skillfully slid the Jabberwocky in between the two pillars, possibly scaring the drek out of young Astra if she had chosen to take up position in the co pilot station. "Another happy landing." The Twi'lek muttered, as she rose up and followed after Kraud, perhaps a tad happy to be on a mission with him and one of his children again. "Astra, how is Alana? I haven't heard much about her. Did...she ever get off those deathsticks?" She would ask the padwan, trying to stay out of earshot of Kraud; she knew just how sensitive he was about the subject after all. Once this answer was given, Mila would be waiting by the docking ramp, ready to get this underway, wrapped up nice and warm with a fur lined robe that Brahe's mother had gifted her ages ago.

[Astra Calloway]

As they approached the planet, Astra put her arm over her eyes to shield them from the glare of light that reflected off of the white surface. "You should've told me we needed sunglasses!" She said to Kraud in front of her. Once her eyes had adjusted to the change in light more, she removed her arm though still squinted as it was still awfully bright. Upon seeing where they were headed, Astra gazed upon the prison complex in awe, it really was breath-taking and a far cry from the encumenopolis planets she had been frequenting recently.

Astra was alarmed when a warning flashed in the cockpit but Mila seemed calm and unworried by such a warning, this was her ship after all so she trusted the knight's abilities in piloting it but it didn't make the warning seem any less unnerving. But sure enough, they landed comfortably between two pillars and Astra let out a breath she hadn't realised she'd been holding in. As she turned to follow Kraud, she heard Mila speak to her and turned back to face the Twi'lek with a smile. At the mention of Alana, Astra deflated. "She's doing okay, I suppose. She hasn't gotten off them yet but we're hoping in time she will." She said with a sad smile before following Kraud out of the cockpit.

At the docking bay, Astra stopped at the end of the platform and looked down at the snow, having never set foot in snow before. She put one foot on the ground to test the density of the snow before walking out onto it and looking around to absorb their new surroundings. "It's a bit nippy." She observed, looking back at the group behind her.



@Powerfullhorus @Algarus

 

[Kraud]

"A bit nippy?" Kraud chuckled. "That's one way to put it." The volcanic crater that held the facility was located close to the north pole of Belsavis. Outside the crater, temperatures ranged between -50 and -60 Celsius. Inside, however, this was reduced to a mere -20. It was still unbelievably cold; especially for humans. But as a Whiphid, it barely bothered him. In fact, Belsavis reminded him of home. The home he had unwillingly left behind. Waiting for the other group of soldiers to arrive, Kraud took a moment to observe the facility. Built on a mesa, the facility seemed impossible to escape from without a transport. And the few that managed to get out of the facility would certainly not survive the harsh weather.

Once the soldiers gathered around the three Jedi, Kraud spoke up. "Alright. The plan is simple. We find a way in, avoid as many prisoners as possible, find the hostages and get them out of there. Once we succeed, we can call in reinforcements and seize control over the prison." he stated. Their team was sixteen men strong, including the three Jedi. It was small enough to get in and out unseen, but packed enough firepower to escape once things got violent. Hesitating for a second, Kraud continued. "As you all know, the former prisoners are armed and dangerous. Therefore, you may shoot to kill..." While he greatly disliked it, there was no other option. This was not a mission where they could be lenient, although that would not stop the Whiphid from trying. He glanced at Astra, expecting her to probably prefer it this way. "Any questions?" the soldiers shook their heads. "Good. Then I suggest we advance."

@Algarus @Sunfrog

 

[Mila Tesara]

Mila nodded in understanding at the padawans statement. "That is unfortunate to hear, but remember, the force works in mysterious ways. In the times to come, perhaps these dark moments of her life will serve to push her on into better things. Do not give up on her, for the force is still working through her, even if she denies it." Mila was only partly aware of the affairs that went on with Kraud and his children, she had know the man for sometime after all, and though the Calloway twins were not blood related, she viewed them as nieces in her eyes; perhaps it was just the way Twi'leks viewed family relations, but Mila wouldn't have it any other way.

Stepping onto the surface of the world, Mila took in a deep breath, letting the cold sting at her lungs, the chilly air nearly freezing her exposed lekkus to the point she hastily pulled her hood on over to protect them. "By the force it is indeed nippy." Mila commented in on the duos comments. She never did well with the cold herself, as Ryloth had no temperature so extreme as this, but there was the force to compensate her, but that would take some time before it's power would be at work here. When Kraud began to speak, Mila found herself fixated on the Whiphid, studying his words, his pose. He seemed so confident and assured, in such a few select words he had managed to present that. How was that? It always puzzled her, perhaps that was what drew her towards him in the beginning, when she was little more than a naviee space explorer looking for her purpose in life. Yes, perhaps that was what started her affections for him, but now was not the time for such thoughts. Banishing those thoughts, Mila was still left with that fuzzy sensation within her chest and the quickened beating of her heart; it was an annoying habit that she had been unable to break, but she had found a way to combat. Stepping back towards the Jabberwocky, Mila closed the docking ramp and locked the ship up; though she left the engines running, as if she didn't they'd spend hours clearing out the ice build up, and she didn't want to go through that ordeal again. She would take up a position in the back of the group, giving herself distance from Kraud, as well as enabling her to perceive any attempts to strike from behind. This wasn't just some Blue Milk Run, no, this was an actually dangerous mission, and she couldn't allow for any distractions to infringe upon it.

@Sunfrog @Powerfullhorus

 

[Astra Calloway]

"I won't." She reassured Mila with a smile, appreciative of being able to talk about Alana without getting into a heated discussion as emotions tended to run high in those kinds of conversations. "Thank you." She said with a smile, hoping to talk to the Twi'lek about the matter later when they weren't on a mission.

"I think we've come woefully unprepared for this, a coat just won't cut it, this is balaclava weather." She told the knights while wrapping her arms around herself. Kraud was fine, he had a permanently built-in fur coat but Astra and Mila would bear the brunt force of the weather. Astra stuck close to Kraud, hoping to use him to shield some of the chill from the wind and when he explained the situation to the group she almost pressed herself into his side.

She was surprised when Kraud announced that it would be permissible to shoot to kill, he wasn't secretive about his views on the matter but in this situation it really did seem like there was no choice but Astra would rely on it as a last option, opting to disable first because that was what she too believed in and what she believed would make Kraud proud. "Let's rock and roll." She said cheerily as she started walking in the direction of the prison, looking up at the huge structure in awe.



@Powerfullhorus @Algarus

 

[Kraud]

With a slight chuckle at Astra's remark, Kraud followed behind the cheery Padawan. They didn't have to rush, but it was important to keep moving in this cold. While the Jedi were just here to support the guards, they had kind of taken over the entire operation, agreed upon by the guard captain, who quickened his pace to catch up with the Whiphid Jedi.

"Master Jedi," he began, once he caught up with the Whiphid. "We are approaching the facility from the south. This means that we'll come across the Great Chasm." he explained, which made the Jedi frown. "The Great Chasm? can we cross it Captain Verge?" he asked, scanning the path ahead for any sign of a 'great chasm'. "There are several thin ice bridges that stretch over the chasm. If we move cautiously enough, we should be able to cross it." he answered truthfully.

After a 15 to 20 minute walk across the snow-covered plains, the Whiphid saw their first true obstacle; the Great Chasm. It looked quite intimidating, even from a distance. The Captain was right about the bridges being thin; the Jedi doubted that one bridge alone would hold the weight of their group combined. As they reached the chasm itself, Kraud took the liberty of looking down into the gaping abyss. He had absolutely no idea how the deep the chasm was; as a thick fog clouded the vision of any who tried to measure it's depth.

Captain Verge was the first to speak up. "My men and I brought the strongest fibercord ropes we got." Understanding what the Captain was hinting at, Kraud nodded. "I suggest we split up in multiple rope teams, and have each team cross a different bridge." the Whiphid suggested, as the captain handed him one of the ropes. After having split into four rope teams, each team four men strong, the rope teams each took a bridge. "May the Force be with us.." Kraud muttered, as he cautiously took the first few steps on the thin ice bridge. The bridge made some ominous, cracking noises under his weight, but it stayed intact. Once Kraud and his team reached the other side of the chasm, he let out a sigh, before he turned around to see how the other teams were doing.

@Sunfrog @Algarus

 

[Mila Tesara]

It was cold, probably the coldest Mila had been in her entire life; actually, no that one day she spent on Hoth was by far worse than this. Still, it wasn't exactly a walk in the park, as she had to call upon the force to keep herself from shivering terribly. She could practically feel the chilling air punching straight through her coat, freezing her down to her bones. It was miserable. She put the mortal plight of her physical form aside, focusing instead on the dangers of this icy world.

Up ahead, it became rather apparent that the chasm up ahead was going to be problematic. Mila pushed on up ahead, moving past several of the soldiers as she was within earshot of Kraud, it seemed they had encountered their first obstacle. She only took one quick glance at the vast rift in the ice, and found rather off put by it. "I concur, it's best to not test nature." She said in agreement, taking up one squad and moving to cross over the chasm. Mila went first, wanting to show the soldiers that she had enough faith that the bridge would hold, also so she would be in a better position to catch one of them if the worst happened. Thankfully, they had all crossed without issue, bringing a small bit of relief to the Twi'lek, as she was rather relieved to see Kraud had passed without issue, then turned towards Astra in hopes that the young padawan was safe as well.

@Powerfullhorus @Sunfrog

 

[Astra Calloway]

In the walk to their destination, Astra tried talking to a few of the soldiers accompanying them but found that not many were willing to entertain her in conversation but after a few attempts she found one who would and settled for a conversation with him for the duration of the walk until they reached a rather ominous looking chasm with the land either side strung together by thin ice.

Astra watched as Kraud and Mila took the lead with their groups and once at her own ice bridge with her group they prepared themselves with the fibercord, leaving around eight feet in between each person, and then she took the lead for her group too. She edged slowly along the bridge and avoided any sudden movements with the men behind her following similarly and after a few minutes they were nearing the end, about twenty metres or so off when suddenly she was sent hurtling backwards.

The ice had given way underneath the second man in the team and he was hanging eight feet down from the bridge and over the abyss, supported by the two men behind him who were pulling on their rope and Astra whose fingernails were dug into the edge of the ice on the other side of the gap that had been created, holding herself up to stop her from falling with the person behind her. Although it was likely that the two men still on the bridge could support the weight of both of them, the sudden change in weight could throw them off balance and it was difficult to get the traction needed to support such weight on ice.

"Help!" She screamed out to the others, the call echoing through the chasm. The knights likely already knew of the danger but she wanted to convey the urgency of getting help as she could feel her fingers beginning to tremble from the weight and cold. Moments later, she lost her grip and fell the sixteen feet the length of rope permitted and then an extra one as the change in weight made the men holding them stumble forwards, with the third man along dangerously close to the edge.

Astra looked up at the man above her and then down at the chasm, she had one hand on the rope and used the other to reach for her lightsaber. She stared at the hilt, trembling in fear, but she knew what she had to do. If no one got there in time and if the men couldn't support their weight for long enough then she decided the only course of action would be to cut herself free to give the men a chance at pulling up their ally.




@Powerfullhorus @Algarus

 

[Kraud]

Kraud kept his gaze fixated on Mila and her rope team. The fact that he managed to safely cross the chasm, didn't mean that Mila, Astra and the remaining guards were out of danger. He was ready to intervene if anything got out of hand. He was open to the Force, which made him sense more than usual, just to be on guard. Every time he glanced at Mila, however, he sensed her nervosity and a slight hint of.. adrenaline? What for?

Once Mila's rope team made it safely to the other side of the chasm, Kraud could finally begin to breathe easy. That wouldn't last for long though, as Astra's attempt to cross the chasm went horribly wrong. The bridge didn't support their weight, causing Astra and one of the guards to fall. Kraud's heart pounded heavily in his chest. His adopted daughter was in danger. He had to act fast.

Dashing forward until he reached the edge of the cliff, Kraud saw Astra lose her grip on the cold edge of the collapsed ice bridge. Instinctively, he reached out. The Knight surrendered himself to the living Force, guiding it through his body and outstretched hands, until he seized Astra in his telekinetic grip. "Pull!" he yelled at the remaining two guards, as he lifted Astra up. The only weight the two men had to pull now, was that of their colleague. With some effort, they managed to pull the soldier back up the bridge, followed by Astra.

"Try another bridge." he stated, once he could safely let go of his Padawan.

@Algarus @Sunfrog

 

[Mila Tesara]

Mila let out a gasp as she heard the ice break, and attempted to rush towards Astra's position to try and do something to help the young woman. Kraud was closer however, and by the time Mila got over to assist, the situation was already under control. Letting a small sigh of relief out from her lips, as put a hand on Kraud's shoulder. "I'll wait by the next bridge she crosses, I'll be there to catch her." Mila commented, as she would carefully move towards the next bridge Astra and her group looked to cross, and kneel on the hard ice, preparing herself if she was needed to leap into action to save the padawan and her men. There was no fear, nor was she focused on the chilling sensation that stung at her like an angry Shaclaw, her primary concern was ensuring Kraud's padawan and team made it over in one piece, and little else. She didn't even want to imagine what might have occurred if Astra had died then and there, in fact, Mila blocked that line of thinking out of her head entirely. Such dreary thoughts were not needed for this time and place.

@Sunfrog @Powerfullhorus

 

[Astra Calloway]

Astra felt an odd feeling of weightlessness and looked up to see Kraud using the Force to lift her back up to the ledge. Once she was back on solid ground, she stayed on her hands and knees for a few moments, shaken by what had just happened. "Ok." She replied shakily to Kraud before getting to her feet and letting the person who had been at the back lead them to another bridge but no one said anything.

This time, she took even greater care when crossing the bridge, taking even more time to ensure it was completely safe. Eventually, the team made it across unharmed but a little shaken so when Astra reached Mila, she wrapped her arms around the knight, relieved to finally be on safe ground. Everyone released themselves from the fibercord before continuing on their journey. Astra wrapped her arms around herself for warmth and was considerably less chatty than before as they made their way to the base of the structure.



@Powerfullhorus @Algarus

 

[Kraud]

Once Astra made it safely to their side, Kraud urged the group to continue. He slowed down his pace a little, until he walked beside his Padawan. "I'm glad you're okay." he began, his gaze still fixated on the road ahead of them, scanning it for danger. "I know you can handle yourself just fine, but every time when I see you in danger..." Kraud paused. He didn't know how to put it. For years, his emphasis had been on survival. But this last decade he had taken care of the two girls he now saw as his daughters. While they arguably changed him, the daunting Whiphid still struggled with emotions and feelings.

Before he could finish, however, the guard captain approached him again. There was only one thing he had to say. "We've arrived."

For the past few hours since they had left the ship behind them, the group had moved from one rock formation to another, keeping the rocks and cliffs between them and the facility to stay out of sight. The downside of this strategy was that they couldn't see the facility either. They simply relied on the knowledge and navigational skills of the guard captain, which seemed on point. Kraud glanced at Astra; a part of him wanted to finish his sentence. But that part lost the internal struggle, as he directed his attention the Captain instead. "Is the entrance guarded?"

The captain shook his head in response. "It's a sewer pipe. Prisoners probably don't even know it's here."

Following behind Captain Verge, Kraud entered the sewer pipes. The stench was almost unbearable, but with that being their only obstacle for now, the Whiphid could push on.

@Algarus @Sunfrog

 

[Mila Tesara]

Mila was relived that the woman made it across this time without issue, as she returned the embrace in kind. Hopefully this would be the last incident that would cause the trio concern, but Mila doubted that very much. She of course straightened herself out when Kraud made himself known, as Mila carefully stepped away from the pair, moving to be with the captain of the squad instead. The next few hours were probably the coldest that Mila had ever experienced, but with the force she was able to endure the extreme temperature without going into shock; though her face and head tails were practically frosted over by then.

As they reached this new entrance, Mila couldn't help but laugh, though she did so internally, as such was her custom; to those around her, she only seemed to be grinning ever so slightly. They had come all this way to jump into a sewer entrance in the hopes of pushing into the facility. As the offensive odor slammed into her nostrils, the jedi knight shook her head, trying to wave it away with her hand. "What an incerdible new smell you've discovered." She muttered, as Mila would ensure she would be the last one of the group to follow behind. "Astra, go on up ahead. I'd rather stay to the back so I can conceal out point of entry." Mila advised, as while the prisoners probably didn't know about the sewer entrance, she didn't want to risk some unsavory snow beast to come lumbering in through the opening.

@Sunfrog @Powerfullhorus

 

[Astra Calloway]

Kraud didn't need to finish his sentence to convey its meaning. Astra knew what the Jedi was trying to express, even if he struggled to do so. In response, she gave him a reassuring smile and a small nod to acknowledge his comment. The pair knew each other pretty well by now which seemed beneficial for a master and padawan relationship but Astra sometimes wondered if it could sometimes be a hindrance to them essentially being a surrogate family for each other. She certainly knew that her personal feelings could get in the way.

"This is far from glamorous." Astra scrunched her nose up at the first whiff of the stench before pinching her nose and breathing through her mouth. "Ok." She told Mila as she jogged up ahead to join Kraud and the captain, knowing the Knight would be more capable of protecting them from behind. After an uncomfortably long time navigating the sewers beneath the prison, Astra spoke up. "How much further?" She asked in disgust. Kraud had neglected to mention the less glamorous parts of being a Jedi when he had convinced her to join the Order three years prior and now she was in the sewers of a prison on a less than freezing planet.



@Powerfullhorus @Algarus

 

[Kraud]

At first, the Knight had decided not to comment on the smell, until his fellow Jedi did so. "At least now we know why no one's guarding this entrance." he said with a chuckle as he advanced through the sewers. Somehow, despite the stench, he was in a good mood. Perhaps it had to do with the fact that they were almost in the facility now, without having suffered any losses. Or just because he hadn't spend time with Astra and Mila in a while.

After what seemed like hours navigating through the prison, the captain's muffled voice could be heard again. "Master Jedi, could you remove those gratings?" He began, pointing at the gratings positioned above their heads. With a nod, Kraud reached for the gratings. The ceiling was too high for any of his companions, but he could move the gratings with ease.

His second task was a little more straining; one by one, Kraud helped the soldiers up into the corridor above them, until only Astra and Mila were left. If they needed help getting up there, he would aid them in a similar manner. But given the fact that they were Jedi, he believed that they could easily make the jump on their own.

Once Kraud was the last one left in the sewers, he climbed into the corridor above him. Despite his waning physical strength; he hadn't trained in a long while, the Knight didn't need to enhance his physical prowess with the Force. Once inside, he scanned the corridor for threats. At first glance, there seemed to be no one out there. The stench was still present in this corridor, and made it extremely hard for the Knight to focus. The bad air quality and his physical exertion made him even feel dizzy and nauseous. No, it was better to leave possible incoming threats to his Jedi companions...

@Algarus @Sunfrog

 

[Mila Tesara]

Once Astra moved into the opening, Mila followed in behind, closing the way behind them off, as the party was left to break the horrid smell on their own. She put the smell aside though, trying to focus on what was unfolding here and now. Overall, the operation seemed to be going remarkably well, given no one was dead, nor had they contracted frost bite. All in all, everything seemed to be going good.

As time progressed, Mila could finally feel her face again, though she did have to wonder just what it was they were doing down here. Was their guide lost, or was the prison that big? Given the history of the world in question, Mila didn't want to think too hard about that. As Kraud began to put men into the ceiling grating, Mila simply stood back and let the jedi do his work. Once all the men were lifted up into the ceiling, Mila nodded to Astra, as she felt it best for herself to go first; after all, Kraud seemed to be a little disoriented. Leaping up into the corridor, Mila reached out with her senses and sensed a patrol of prisoners moving towards their position. "Captain, get your men into cover." Mila warned, as she went to the saber on her belt. There were more prisoners obviously, but this group seemed to be on a collusion course with their small group, once Kraud and Astra arrived, Mila alerted them to the danger. Of course, just as she was doing this, another group of prisoners came under her notice, as it seemed another group of four was milling to the hall behind them. "Two groups, four to our rear, three to the front." Mila stated, as she reached out with the force and waited, hoping that she could eliminate the hostilities with the alarm being raised.

@Sunfrog @Powerfullhorus

 

[Astra Calloway]

Astra returned a small nod of the head to Mila to show she understood and stood under the hole above them, gathering the force within her to allow her to leap into the corridor above. Upon a brief inspection, the coast seemed clear but once Mila arrived she told the group otherwise and informed them of the incoming prisoners either side of them.

Although Astra knew that as Jedi their job was to protect people and Mila's intentions had been out of selflessness, she thought it was rather insulting to the soldiers to be told to get into cover when they were highly trained. It wasn't like they were ordinary civilians but rather equals in the sense that they were equally, if not more, trained for combat than at least herself if not Kraud or Mila.

As the first two prisoners appeared around the corner, Astra reached for her lightsaber but remembering that Kraud was with her made her draw her hand away and hold it out empty in front of her, ready to use the force as she had been taught. One had a blaster in his hand which Astra pulled from his grasp by using the force and the other two had make-shift weapons which looked like jagged pieces of pipe.

She held both hands out and used the force to push the two armed men backwards against a wall, leaving the unarmed man advancing on the group with a look of rage while his companions lay motionless on the ground behind him.



@Powerfullhorus @Algarus

 

[Kraud]

He had to admit it; the exertion and bad air quality truly had thrown him off. Even now, as Mila stated that there were in fact prisoners nearby, the Whiphid failed to sense them. But he didn’t need to rely on the Force or his lightsaber to take down a small band of rioting prisoners.

Kraud glanced over his shoulder, seeing Astra advancing in the direction of where he presumed the group of three was coming from. Good, the Knight knew that she could handle them with ease. While he had no doubts that the guards were capable fighters, he didn’t want any of them injured this early on in their mission. And whether they liked it or not; the Jedi were vastly superior in combat prowess.

Once the group of four prisoners came around the corner, Kraud burst into motion. With just one step, the towering Knight closed the gap between him and the startled prisoners. All of them were armed; one with a stun baton, two with sharp pipes and one with a blaster. The one with the stun baton had no chance to use his weapon at all. Kraud’s fist slammed against the man’s gut, sending him flying straight into the prisoner with the blaster. The Knight would get no rest, however, as he quickly intercepted the metal pipe of his third assailant. With a jerk he pulled the weapon out of the man’s hands, using it to incapacitate the fourth in a single motion. None of the rioting prisoners would get a chance to recover, for captain Verge fired four quick stun bolts, each of them hitting its mark. “I suppose I should say thank you.” The Whiphid commented while glancing at the motionless bodies of the prisoners. They had no time to waste now. If the prisoners found out that some of their patrols went missing, the prisoners would know they were here.

@Algarus @Sunfrog

 

[Mila Tesara]

Mila had expected to disable at least one of the prisoners, but it seemed her group had that well in hand. The Twi'lek stood for a moment, feeling a tad awkward as it seemed she had missed her chance to be helpful. Kraud and Astra, as well as their soldier friends, had eliminated everyone that might have posed a threat. She took a glance around, and let out a small sigh as everyone seemed to have come out alive and well. Now that they were in the prison, it was time to act, but they needed to find the control room to get this place under control. Taking in a deep breath, Mila focused herself, asking the force to show the way, but sadly the force had let her down this time. "Which way do we go to now? I'm not familiar with this place, and I'm unable to sense which way we are to follow." Mila stated, as she took up watching the one corridor for more prisoners, her hand on her lightsaber, just in case it needed to be used in case the guards arrived. Her senses warned her that more prisoners would be en route soon; there was no way they hadn't heard the blaster fire going off after all.

@Powerfullhorus @Sunfrog
