Chapter 6
The Mission to Zeta-09

Amber was sitting in the co-pilot chair as Dante entered the cockpit, he was followed by two men an older man with a white beard face and a man that look to be in his mid-30s, Dante moved closer to her as he gave her a smile as he began to speak.

"Tigress, I would like for you to meet our rebels friends, they will be the ones to storm the Imperial base," said Dante as Amber nodded but in her mind, she would need to tell Dante her name soon, "Maybe after this mission," thought Amber as Dante went on. "This here is Lt Nik Sant, the leader of this part of the team and his second Sergeant Brooks Carlson," spoke Dante as Lt Sant went to shake her hand, standing up and taking the hand she gave the men a smile.

"So you must be are Informant in this system huh," said Lt Sant as Amber nodded to the man answer.

"Yes, that's me, did your people tell you what going to happen, or did you need me to explain some more?" asked Amber as Lt Sant waves his hand no.

"That won't be necessary,"

"Alright, then let us get this show on the role," said Dante as he made his way toward his pilot chair, he then turn to Amber. "Tigress can you input the coordinates and we can be on our way,"

Amber nodded as she took the co-pilot chair as the two rebels stood to stand behind them as she gave Dante the coordinates to Zeta-09, the ship then began to lift up and then began to leave the atmosphere, and then they jump to lightspeed as the familiar view of hyperspace came.

Onboard the Starrunner

Thall inputted the coordinates that their informant gave them as he took their ship into hyperspace following them, he took a look where the coordinates only to smile as he said. "Huh, now that's a name,"

"What is," said a voice Thall as he turn to see his wife Kea as he wave for her to come."Take a look at the guy's ships name," said Thall as Kea came closer and look down to see the name, once she saw it a small smile appeared on her lips as she turns to Thall.

"Skywatch?"

"What? the guys must really like name," said Thall as he pulled up more information about the ship. "It says it an Action Vl Transport, he must have modified it somehow," said Thall as Kea could only shake her head as took the co-pilot chair as they waited in Hyperspace, Thall turn to look to see how much time it was going to be.

"Looks like we are leaving Hyperspace in 30, Lt tell you, men, to be ready to begin as soon as we exit hyperspace," said Thall as he turn to Kea as she gave him a nod.

In a flash of light appeared two starships as they exited Hyperspace, both ships now found themselves on the outskirts of the system as they began powering up their sublight engines, it was the Starruuner to break the silence as they made their way towards Zeta-09.

"All right Captain Dante, I will give you the coordinates to land, from there the strike team will take care of the rest, you just need to stay in your ship and be ready to take off once the mission is done," said Amber as she began typing into the console as new coordinates appeared on Dante screen.

"You got it, taking us in now," said Dante as both ship's sublight engines took them into the planet's atmosphere and close their drops zone. Dante now found himself inside the planet snowing atmosphere, the coordinates took both ships through mountain terrain but their flight was short as they entered an ice-covered wasteland, letting the ship hover for a moment as Lt Sant told him to wait for a moment as they unload there gear, after several seconds Dante hear on the comms to depart as both ships take off and head back to the mountain and find a good place to land as the strike team made their way towards the base in there speeder bikes.

Now Dante found himself alone with only Oola, Sienn'rha, and Tigress, she was focused on the comms as she listen to what the team was saying, hoping to break the ice he spoke up as he got out of his chair.

"You need anything warm to drink?" ask Dante as Tigress turn away from her console and nodded as Dante nodded back and headed towards the kitchen.

Lt Sant laid flat on his stomach as the rest of his men did the same, he pulled out his macro binoculars as he found their target, it was a small outpost as inside was a way for them to enter the underwater base, looking for any signs of troopers he found only two that were on patrol, "They must belive that nobody knows that they are here," thought Lt Sant as he nodded to his men and they got back onto there bikes and made there way towards the base, sending Alpha team the coordinates.

With their speeder bike, it didn't take them long to reach the base as the two guards spotted them but before they could even raise their blaster at them two bolts of plasma went through their head as their bodies fell back, Lt Sant turn to where the shot came from as he spotted Alpha team making there way towards them, Lt Greeve nodded as they gunned their engines until they reach the base.

As they got off their speeder bikes, Greeve was the one barking orders. "I want Dray and Kensaric to stay here and guard the entrance," said Greeve as the two soldiers nodded as he turn to Corporal Dansra Beezer their slicer. "Corporal Beezer get that door unlocked now the rest be on guard in case the Imperials have any surprises," said Lt Sant as his men began to follow his orders.

Drake watched the rebels as they made their move, he now had to make his, moving silent and quickly he made his way through the snow and towards the base, passing the rebels as he did so, as he made his way around the base and away from prying eyes he found vent that could only be used for the base, cutting a way for him was easy as his lightsaber made short work on the vent.

Once that was done he clip his lightsaber to his belt and jump inside and allowed gravity to take him down, using the force he threw his hands down to create a large push force towards the bottom of the vent as by the time he reach the end of his ride the door burst open as he landing feet first into the hanger of the base, now he just needed to find a way to get to the underwater base.

It was then that in his rush to come down he failed to notice the small group of Imperials that were sitting at the table playing cards, he turn to face them as he got his first look at them, he notice that they were not wearing the armor, after the shock of seeing him drop down on them they quickly rush to get him as some of them began to draw there blaster or try to sound the alarm, he needed to stop that as he raises his hand and grabs the ones that were trying to pull the alarm, he then brought his hand back to him as that pulled them away from the alarm.

Drawing his lightsaber he rush to meet the Imperials as he slash and punch his way through them, some tried to move out of his way but with a force pull he brought them right back to him as they scream in terror as his lightsaber ended their life, it only took him a few moments to finish them off as he now found himself alone the hanger.

As he was looking to see if he could find a way down he began to hear the footsteps of the rebels as there were coming down. "Looks like the rebels are almost here, looks like a good time to introduce myself," thought Drake as the doors to the hanger open and the rebels started to pour in, they quickly notice him as they drew their weapons towards him, he turn to them as he showed them his lightsaber and spoke.

"Took you guys long enough, I took care of the rest of them down here," said Drake as the rebels turn to look at his handing work, for the rebels they look to one another as their Lt step forward.

"Well it seems you know how to handle yourself, and how to use that weapon you have," said Lt Sant as he pointed towards Drake's lightsaber. "If you hear to help then come along we don't have much time to waste," said Lt Sant as Drake nodded and followed the rebels into one of the subs that would take them toward the underwater base.

"I am coming my son, just stay strong," thought Drake as he hope to reach his son before the Imperials do anything bad to him.
