Ch'lana shakes his head. "Long throw from here."

Niil sighed.  "Yeah, too far away for grenades."  Hefting his rifle, he said, "Three of us should pop around the corner and give them a round or two of blaster rifle fire; these rifles easily have that range.  Then we leap-frog forward, using the support beams as cover.  Once we get into grenade range, we chuck two or three at their formation."

(OOC: Sorry guys...had an...incident...at work tonight and got to spend most of the rest of the night filling out paperwork. Yay. Didn't mean to hold things up)

The slave girl was looking around as the others were talking. She KNEW she recognized this area. She had worked here before.

Then suddenly she saw it and she remembered. She took a breath to speak and in her excitement she almost shouted. It felt....good....to be useful. It was a new feeling to her.

She remembered at the last minute and whispered in a low voice instead:

"Hey guys, back there." she pointed up to the ceiling about 10 meters back from the corner they were now at.

"That ventilation duct won't get you past the checkpoint, but it'll get you a lot closer and will keep you from having to walk in the open and give them target practice..."

She shrugged. "Maybe someone could drop down on them from above or drop a few grenades on them?"

A crooked half smile formed across her face at that thought. It wasn't an entirely innocent smile, either.

"Give me some grenades and I'd be more than willing to take that job..."

Niil turned to look at Demaria . . . no, make that Keshani . . . and grinned.  "Yeah, hitting that checkpoint from above would definitely give us an edge.  How many people could we get up there that way?  All of us?"

Trax listened to the various ideas.  Niil's had merit, and was a wise choice for a large part of the group.  It would be what he'd ask Nim to consider.  Keshani's plan, when she first spoke up about the ventilation shaft, caused him to almost start grinding his teeth thinking it would bypass the troopers all together.  Thankfully, in his mind at least, that would not be the case.  In the rebel's mind, both plans could be implemented, along with a slight addition.

"Nightshade seems to be able to move around unseen," Trax looked briefly at Ch'lana, "I get the impression you don't mind just walking up to them, and neither do I.

Toss Kesh a grenade or two, let her use the ducts.  I'm sure she'd love to serve up some payback.  Give her a comm so she can let us know when she's in position.  When they start firing on us, start dropping grenads.  It'll mean the three of us will have their attention, well two anyway, I don't expect they'll see Nightshade until it's too late for them."

Trax now turned to Nim, but was speaking to Niil and Collan as well.

"The three of you can use our distraction and the beams for cover to shoot or close without presenting yourselves as targets."

Niil thought for a moment, then nodded.  "That should work.  Nightshade, did you want to take the left side or the right side of that corridor?  We wouldn't want to tag you by accident.  So . . . wait until Keshani is in position and gives us a green light, then we'll open with an initial round of fire.  Keshani drops the grenades, and we all leap-frog towards the checkpoint."

"Some of us might want to start moving closer before hand, just to make sure they don't decide to target her."

Niil shook his head.  "No, dropping the grenades right after we round the corner wouldn't be good.  I was thinking that she'd pop her grenades about ten seconds after we make our move."

The Shinobi smiled as Trax mentioned his abilities to stay out of sight.  "I will take the left side," he answers Niil as he hands his stun grenades to Keshani, and prepares to move out when the group is ready.

Keshani blinked as the man that had startled her so greatly before(she didn't know his name) handed her two stun grenades. She was so surprised that someone would actually trust her with these that she almost forgot to hold out her hands to take them.

She looked at the man and remembered that when she had first met the people she was now with she had tried to kill at least one of them....

and now they apparently trust me?


It was....strange.

She nodded to the man and looked around at the others.

"I, uh, guess I'm gonna need a lift up to the duct when we're ready to do this...."

Niil dropped to one knee and cupped both of his hands together to form a stirrup for her foot.  "Ready when you are."

She took a slow breath and let it ok.

"Ok. Here goes nothing..." she put her foot in Niil's cupped hands and reached up to the opening of the duct, working to lift herself inside.

"One sec." Trax said, slipping the comm of his ear and offering it to Keshani.

"Let Niil or Nim know when you're in position.  And be careful."
