"Delta squad, lock n' load. . ." Said Boss as Scorch looked down in saddness.
". . . We're going back for Sev." As Boss said that Scorch looked up with a big smile under his helmet.
"Pilot, i'm sending you the coordinates that you need to fly us to."
"Roger that, we'll be there soon."

"We're here, go! Go! Go!" Said Boss as the Commandos dismounted from the LAAT one by one onto a and soon after them dismounted himself. Fixer shot two B1 Droids which just appeared from around the corner and noticed the ship.
"So. . . what's our plan sir? Even if we get there, what if he's not there?" Asked Fixer.
"I don't know, we'll go there and if he's not there. . . well, we'll figure something out." Said Boss as they were making their way to the last known location of Sev and shooting at droids and trandoshians which happened to be in Delta squad's way.
"Ok. It's just behind this door, get ready!" Said Boss as they started breaching the door. As they went inside all they saw were a few destroyed Droids.
"Aaaaaand he's not here, so what now?" Asked Scorch as he kicked one of the lifeless Droids
"That one, it looks like it's still barely working, Fixer, check it for any possible info on Sev."
"On it Boss." Said Fixer as he kneeled down, laid his weapon on the floor and started tampering with the droid
"How long do you reckon it'll take?" asked Scorch.
"Finished"
"Oh."
"It looks like. . . they took him to a prison complex, it's not that far away."
"Alright, lead the way."
"So guys. . . what happens after the war? I mean, it will end one day." asked Scorch.
"What do you mean?"
"Well. . . we're soldiers, we're made for war, and some day there won't be any war."
"I- I don't know, I don't think anybody knows. But for now, let's just live through the war." answered Boss.
"We should be coming up to the prison in. . . right now." said Fixer as he looked up from his hand with the coordinates onto a small empty clearing in the forest.
"What do you mean? I see no prison." Said Scorch as he looked around.
"It says that it's right here." Fixer said in anger.
"Well, it is clearly not!"
"Shut up you two! It is here, under us." Said Boss as he looked at them
"Excuse me, sir?" Said Fixer with a confused look under his helmet. As Boss moved some dirt with his foot to reveal metal.
"Alright, it's here, but we don't know how to enter, great." Said Scorch as he kicked the metal floor.
"You are the Demolition expert, are you not?" Said Fixer.
"Oh right." Said Scorch as he stopped for a second and started planting an explosive. As the bomb blew up it reaveled a tunnel with stairs at one end leading downwards, a turn on the other and a body of a Trandoshian who probably got killed by the explosion.
"You sir, are ugly." said Scorch to the mutilated Trandoshian as he entered the tunnel.

"He should be around the corner" Said Fixer. After they turned the corner they shot a guard who was patrolling around the facility.
"He's behind this door."
"Slice it." Said Boss
"On it Boss." Said Fixer as he started slicing the door. As the door opened they saw Sev sitting on a bench.
"It took you a while." He said with a slight smirk.
"We had some complications, here catch." Said Boss as he threw his pistol towards Sev. As he caught it, he immediately aimed and shot it, and the wounded Trandoshian that just pulled out a knife behind the Deltas
"You owe me one Boss."
"Pfff, you owe us a lot more than one then."
"Hey, I was counting the ones before that too." Said Sev as he got up from the bench.
"Now, we have to get back to the LZ, it's right outside the prison, or rather above."
"Also, did you leave any droids or trandos for me?" Jokingly said Sev.
"Sorry Sev, got all of them." Responded Scorch with a grin on his face. After a while they made it to the landing zone where an LAAT was already waiting for them.

"I'm very dissapointed with you Deltas, you disregarded direct orders for one clone. But we still have work to do, order 66 has been issued, every Jedi is now to be considered an enemy of the Republic. For now all that I know is that you will receive additional training including training in piloting ships and fighting Jedi."
"Jedi hunting, well there's a first for everything." Said Sev.

"Now that you've finished your training, I have some more details for you. You will be looking for a Jedi Master and her padawan. The Master is a woman called Coria and the Padawan is called Khoan."
"And where do we look for them?" Asked Boss.
"Their last known location is Illum in the uknown regions"
"Uknown regions? Why the hell were they there. And do we know if they're still there?" asked S.
"Apparently it's some holy place for the Jedi or something. And right now, they have probably left the planet and they may be on Ruumea, it's also in the unknown regions but it's the closest civilized planet to Illum."
"Right, so when are we moving out?" Asked Boss.
"In an hour, we can't waste any more time."
"An hour? How am I going to get any sleep?" Said Scorch while sighing.
"well, you better get it before we move out, don't want you to crash into any asteroids. . ." Jokingly said Sev.
"Better listen to him."

"So that's the place. . ." Said Fixer as he saw a green ball with a few blue spots.
"Yep, it looks like it is, apparently there's only one settlement there, we'll land next to it." Said Boss while travelling to the planet in his orange V-wing
"Probably filled with criminals." said Sev.
"Which planet isn't?" Asked Scorch.
"Good point." replied Sev.

As they landed on the planet they saw thick jungle far away and a lot of vegetation around the town.
"Now, get into your civilian clothes, I doubt we're going to learn anything in this armor, and pistols only, Sev." Said Boss while getting out of his V-wing. After they made it to the town with all of them wearing face covering besides Boss. As they entered, they saw a small town with a few traders here and there including weapon traders, selling them just like they were fruit.
"So what do we do now Si- Boss?" Asked Fixer.
"Now? We find a cantina, people reveal a lot when they're drunk."
"Like this one" Said Scorch while pointing at a door right next to them.
"Yes. . . just like this one." Said Boss while looking at Scorch and then entered the cantina. A Gotal behind the bar asked the Deltas:
"Hello gentlemen! What can I get you today?"
"just get us some drinl." Said Boss.
"Sure thing!" And as the bartender was getting the drinks Boss said to the Deltas.
"Eavesdrop on some conversations, ask questions, whatever you need to get out the anwsers, and Sev. . . just be on the look out."
"Sure thing Boss, I never was good in conversations anyway. . ."
