"You could climb a rope, but the lift over here would probably be easier."

"I'm definitely not a Wookiee. Speaking of, there's a bunch of blaster fire and all sorts of beasty roars in the other room that oddly started before we opened the door. Soo I'll have to wait on the lift. How's your tech skills? If I remote in to a console can you accept it?"

"I will try, but if it involves more than pushing a button or two, I can't guarantee any success."

Ooc: if I need to send the lift down to her, I do that

"Great! Working on it now."


OOC: Attempting to remote in to one of the consoles, and I'll walk him through it if it's needed.

Nim keeps working the console, looking for remote access to the control room above the docking bay. It's a longshot, and she's counting on help from Nightshade to make it work.

While this is going on, one of the wookies crosses most of the open door way to reach the stormtrooper on the far right. That Stormtrooper totally ignores the wookie to fire at Ch'lana, but the shot goes wide.

Up in the control room, one of the techs raises his hands and backs slowly towards the lift. "The lift is the only way out. You let us go, we'll disappear."

Two more wookies close stormtroopers. Every stormtrooper now has a wookie beside them. However, the attention and weapons of every stormtrooper are focused on Ch'lana.

One of those stormtroopers fires at Ch'lana, and hits him in the shoulder. However, the Jedi completely shrugs it off.

Collan crosses the open space of the blast door, heading towards the left side. Trax takes a run to the left side and finds cover. He pops out for a look, and assesses the situation.

Inside the access panel, Keshani listens to the sounds of fighting. It's hard not to imagine wookies dying over a fight she started. But what is done is done. She goes to work trying to get the damned shock collar off. She manages not to set the thing off, but she's having trouble getting the clasp apart.

One of the wookies delivers a two-fisted slam against a stormtrooper, ringing his bell but doing little actual damage. The trooper was already injured however, and the combined damage is too much, and he slumps to the deck.

Ch'lana appears to be gathering himself for another leap.

Niil lines up a shot at a trooper. Tough - they've got half cover behind some barricades, and they are literally crawling with wookies. It's a tough shot, but Niil squeezes the firing stud. The bolt hits the trooper on the left shoulder, but the trooper's armour absorbs the blast completely.

Nightshade is not much of a slicer, but he does know his way around computers to some extent. It takes a moment, but he manages to punch a whole in the security of the console. Almost before he recognizes he is successful, Nim is in and screens start flashing status reports, station schematics, and many other bits of information he doesn't even recognize.

One of the wookies takes a stormtrooper in a headlock, and literally rips his head off with his bare hands. The decapitates body slumps to the deck while the wookie hoists the full helmet into the air with a roar of victory. The other wookie, left without a target, joins in the celebration.

Up in the control room, the second tech, obviously terrified, simply nods in agreement with his co-worker.

Ch'lana then leaps through the air, landing beside one of the two remaining stormtroopers. The lightsabre slashes out, and the trooper goes down.

Wookies literally tear the last stormtrooper into pieces. Almost as quickly as it began, the fight is over. No hostiles are present.

Niil pivoted around, and did a 360-degree scan of the area.  The troopers were all down, and the control booth was secured.  More importantly, the damn bay door wasn't about to pop open any more.

Before he entered the new area, he called out, "Ms. Naja!  Can you find out where the senators are being held?  An e-map would be great if there's time."  He then entered the new area, and winced at the carnage the wookiees had wrought.  Nodding in gratitude to the nearest, he said, "Our thanks, warrior!"  Pointing back to the bay, he added,  "There are more blasters out there if you and your comrades would like them."

And just how in the hell are we supposed to get these wookiees off this station?  Niil thought with concern.  We can't just leave them here!

Nightshade looks up to nod at the two techs.  "That would be wise...you may take these two with you if you wish." He indicates the stunned techs with a foot before standing by to await more instructions from Nim. 

Ooc: can I reuse the stun darts or do I need to purchase new ammo?

Keshani was too distracted by trying to get the karking collar off her neck to really pay attention to what else was going on around her. The clasp simply did NOT frelling want to come apart.

She knew she wouldn't get very far with the collar still on. The next Overseer who saw her would simply turn the juice on and she would be down on the ground if not worse....

But suddenly there was a change around her that caused her to stop and look around.

Silence. Well. Relative Silence anyway...

The blaster fire had stopped. Some of the wookies were celebrating.

Keshani let out a breath.

Her escape was far from over, but at least she wasn't going to get fried before it started....

She took a minute to look around at the new arrivals from beyond the blast doors.

Who were these people? Why were they here? Should I be afraid of them? Should I try to kill them?

But they had helped to kill the stormtroopers....they couldn't be totally bad, could they?

But slavers might also try to kill the stormtroopers if they wanted to steal the slaves..., she thought to herself.

But who would be crazy enough to mess with the Imperials?, came her brain's reply almost immediately...

Giving up arguing with herself she shook her head for a second and went back to working on her collar.

She would watch to see what happened next before deciding what she would do.

[actions: continue working on collar]

With the troopers all down Trax backed away from the opening.  The rebel didn't turn his back to the doorway until Ch'lana's saber was out of his view, at which time he slung his rifle, spun around and moved back beside Nim who was still working feverishly at the console.

A response to her words and dirty look a few moments earlier was on the tip of his tongue, but he held it in check not wanting to distract the woman from her task.

"Aww yeah baby," Nim cackled to herself as she pet the console she'd just slammed a minute ago. "The Doctor is in!"

Niil's voice momentarily distracted her. "Oh uh, yeah sure. On it."

She turned back to Nightshade's comm. "Thanks man, works beautifully. I'll let you know if I need anything else."

" Buzz, can you see if you can find where the senators are being held?"

And finally to Trax beside her. "What happened in there?"

Ooc": I'm assuming I don't actively need NS at the computers?  First and foremost is map/layout of the station but I'll take whatever she can get (and download the hell out of it). If the senators is too complex for buzz I'll handle that, just trying to get a feeling of how to use him properly.

"Bunch of wookies tore up some stormtroopers." Trax replied.  Despite things appearing to have settled, he continued to periodically look in the direction of the open blast door.  Sooner rather than later someone, or a lot of someones, were going to come checking on things.

[OOC: You use him more as a tool. He's not capable of independent action other than for basic stuff like stay, sit, heel. He enhances your abilities, but there's very little he can do on his own. Think of him as a mobile datapad with some software.]

OOC: Okay. If I need to do one thing at a time I'll startt with the map/layout of the station, then search for our friends, then whatever else I can/do find. Ideally download all to both my comp and Buzz for backup.

Collan stayed on point, looking for any sign of stormtroopers or other dangers.

"We should be quick here...and we need to help the Wookies escape too!"

[ooc: assumin Keshani is still out of sight]

[OOC: The darts are expended when fired. You can carry spares, but there's a danger if you had them in a bag or something. The bracer shields you from accidental discharge. You have replacement darts in your gear, typically you would re-load once the mission is over.]

Ch'lana is in conversation with the wookies, but he keeps his sabre at guard. He breaks off from the wookies to call out, "We're going to have company from the right. A dozen stormtroopers on the way!"

At the control panel, Nim easily pulls up station schematics. With Buzz' help, she cross-references the prisoner database.

[PM sent to Nim.]

In the access panel, Keshani keeps working on the shock collar, but the angle is off, and she doesn't have any tools. It doesn't look likely she'll be able to get it off herself. [OOC: You can keep trying, but the DC is greater than 20.]
