Ariana and Nebesnogo

Ariana quickly scanned the room for cables or power transfer equipment, but none within sight came close to the distance that needed to be covered.

Working together, Ariana and Nebesnogo fixed the hovercar within 4 minutes. The only thing remaining was a jolt of energy to get the system running.

Trigiel and Saron Itho

While Trigiel kept a watchful eye on the patrols, Saron Itho searched for an access point to the detector grid. He found one inside of an unassuming wooden crate, hidden underneath a layer of junk metal.

Trigiel concluded that it might be possible to run in past first tower, have roughly a minute with the generator while moving around it to stay in a blind spot, and run out past the second tower. However, running out would inevitably trigger the detectors, unless one was extremely careful. Should the grid be disabled however, they could make a run to the generator every two minutes.

T'Sal
While waiting, T'Sal saw some movement on the castle-wards tower. It had been only a glimpse, but she was certain there was someone up there. However, when she trained her goggles at the tower, she didn't see anything out of the ordinary.

[Nebesnogo Sveta]

Nebesnogo looks at his rifle then to the car and back again. "Ariana I might have a plan to kick start the engine of this thing. Old army trick I learned from my grandfather. I will use the battery of my rifle to stand in for the battery of the car so we can start it. So can you get the cables to my rifle then I will make it ready for the power transfer."
He then begins to pull his rifle apart.

[Saron Itho]

Saron Itho says to Trigiel: "Trigiel, I found an entrance for my slicing here, maybe I can set of a false alarm and make a path clear." Then he started carefully to investigate the access point.

((OOC: Force level 4 + Reason 4 + Slicing 2))

[T'Sal]

T’sal fronned when she could not see the person. She is determined to find him or her. When you cannot see, you might feel it.
Using the force she tries to feel that someone.

((OOC: Force level 5 + Intuition 5))

Ariana and Nebesnoga where still fixing the car, they still had 5 minutes. So she talks to Trigiel and Saron Itho to see how they made progress.

“Trigiel, Saron Itho how are things going on the detectors?”

[Ariana Danacia]

"That might actually work. If this works you should probably get me one of these rifles, they seem to be multifunctional. Lets give it a shot."

Ariana hooked the power cables up to the car battery and waited for Nebesnogo to hook them up to the battery of his rifle.

[Fecta Trigiel]

"If Saron Itho can disable the detectors, than I can make a run for the generator every two minutes and take a look before I have to go to avoid detection. This time is to short however to do anything else but looking.
So if Saron Itho can lure the droids away, we can do more. Until then I am stuck"

While Trigiel couldn't do anything yet, he took a better look at the spherical hover droids to see what they actually might do, besides hovering and detecting.

Nebesnogo & Ariana

Working together, Nebesnogo and Ariana rigged the rifle into the power loop of the hovercar. The effect was immediate and astonishing -- the hovercar's power loop started up without a hitch, switching smoothly to stationary hover. The daryan rifle's multi-purposeness was obvious.

Saron Itho
Saron Itho expertly sliced into the detector grid. The network did not appear to be protected from intrusions.

From the current access point, Saron Itho could trigger a false alarm in an area of his choice, send a power surge through a single detector, or run a generic diagnostic during which detector input is ignored. The diagnostic would run for five minutes before completing, and would reset the networks encryption keys -- forcing Saron Itho to reslice after the diagnostic had run it's course.

T'Sal
T'Sal tried to feel out a presence on the tower, but could not sense anyone.

Trigiel
While Saron Itho sliced the network, Trigiel examined the three droids again. He discovered that one of the droids was overheated, probably due to failing components.

[Ariana Danacia]

"Yes i am convinced. Get me one of those. "

Ariana tapped her communicator.
"We have just started the hover car, shall we come to you? Have you guys studied the generator already?"

Ariana entered the hovercar and prepared to move it towards the generator.

[Fecta Trigiel]

We where unable to reach safely the generator or the any of the towers. Saron Itho is working on a distraction for the droids. Important note: one of the droids is overheated, probably due to broken parts. We might be able to use it. I am yet unable to detect the working of the hover droids.

Then something hit Trigiel

We might be able to examine the droid: Saron Ith might set of a false alarm, while the hover car uses a tow cable or grappling hook to snatch the broken droid away. At the same time some other might be able to reach the reactor or tower to take a good look.
I got a hook with suction pad of 15m length.

[T'Sal]

“Sounds like a good idea, with that distraction we could do both things. One group could go to the generator with the car and droid and one to the tower. I want to check the tower and some help would be nice."

T’sal studies the tower to see want the best way is to approach and how to get in.

((OOC: Force level 5 + Vision 3 (+scientist 3??)))

[Fecta Trigiel]

"Saron Itho, how are you on setting up a distraction?
Ariana, Nebesnogo Sveta, are you ready and close enough to kidnap the droid?
As I got the longest grappling hook, I suggest that I join the car and kidnap the droid".

Saying so, Trigiel went on his way to the car, following a save path.

[Ariana Danacia]

"We will meet you half way Trigiel"

Ariana directs the hovercar towards a location half way to pick up Trigiel.

After picking up Trigiel Ariana waits to synchronize with the rest of the team and directs the hovercar towards the broken droid to give Trigiel an opportunity to hook the droid.

[Nebesnogo Sveta]

Nebesnogo had put his blaster back together but during the jump start of the hoover car the powerpack had gone completely flat.

He then looked for a good place to anchor the tow cable so they could drag the droid out quickly.
((OOC: Force level 4 + reason 5 (not sure if mech engineer works here)))

[Brend]

Ariana hopped into the car's driver seat, while Nebesnogo found a good point to attach a tow cable to the car's frame. The hovercar moved of the ground with little effort, and Nebesnogo flew up to take up a seat next to Ariana.

Ariana could easily manoeuvre the hover car to where Trigiel was waiting for the pick-up.

All the while, T'Sal had studied the construction and accessibility of the tower she wanted to enter. She determined a good access route, and knew that she could get to the tower and climb it while the droids were distracted. If the other team succeeded in removing one of the droids, she would have a few minutes to analyse the machinery on top of the tower before the next droid would come by.

Trigiel was already waiting at the arranged pick-up location when he heard the hum of the hover car move overhead. A swift jump later, he was on the roof of the car and attached one end of the his grappling hook's cable to the point indicated by Nebesnogo.

Both T'Sal and the hover car team stood ready for action, the only thing needed now was a distraction.

[Ariana Danacia]

Ariana tapped her communicator while maneuvering the hovercar around the towers, making sure they would have a line of sight on the faulty droid.

"Alright, here is the plan: Saron Itho triggers a false alarm, we move towards the damaged droid and destroy it. Next while T'sal studies the tower somebody should probably disable the generator. When that is done we should all join forces in the hovercar and make our way to the castle.

Saro Itho where is that false alarm you promised us? Make sure it is as far away from us as possible."

[Saron Itho]

When everybody was ready to execute the plan, Saron initiates his slicing and tries to set of a false alarm on the oposite site of the complex.

((OOC: Force level 4 + reason 4 + slicing 2))

[Brend]

Saron Itho, having already gained access to the system, easily planted a false alarm in the detector grid.

A loud mechanical wail emanated from the three towers! The three droids immediately stopped moving around, and turned their camera's outwards.

[Fecta Trigiel]

"Nebesnogo Sveta can you provide cover if needed?"

As soon the hovercar is close enough (14m) Trigiel fires his grappling hook at the broken droid. Using the force to make sure the suction nap took a good grip on the droid.
((OOC: equipment grappling hook 40 ft/ 14 m (as seen in episode 1, during the battle of Naboo)

Force level 4 + telekinesis

I made the assumption that Ariana is still driving the car, and that she will direct the car in a save path to the broken droid.
I also made the assumption that Trigiel will be able to fire his grappling hook before he needs to defend himself + that he won't be able to both concentrate on a good shot and use his lightsaber.))

[T'Sal]

The alarm goes off and T’sal looks to the droids to see what they do. As soon as their view was focused on the place of the false alarm and not her direction, she starts to run towards the tower. Nearing the tower she gathers the force to make it in one jump onto the tower.

((OOC: Force level 5 + Fitness 3 + Force jump 1))

T’sal has a nice view from the tower, but it is time for action. She looks at the machinery to see if there is a control she can excess to get some information on what the disc is capable of.

((OOC: Force level 5 + Vision 3 + mechanical engineering 1 (right? Or not?)))

[Ariana Danacia]

Ariana starts to accelerate the hover car and circles around the towers, after spotting the broken droid she moves the hover car in range. After capturing the droid Ariana moves the hover car into the newly created blind spot to let her partners disable the generator. "Disable the generator, I will turn the hovercar in the direction of the castle."

[Brend]

Accompanied by the sound of the alarm, Ariana unleashes the full thrust of the hover car, speeding past the damaged droid to where a blind spot will form once Trigiel ropes in the droid.

As the engine of the hover car roars, Trigiel aligns his shot. While the car whips past, his force-guided projectile hits the droid squarely on it's camera, allowing him to rope in the droid, and blinding it at the same time.

At exactly the same time T'Sal started her run toward the tower. With the hover car overhead, she crouched down and pushed off toward the tower. Guided by the force, and her analysis of the tower's construction, she knew the optimal route, and lithely worked her way up. Unfortunately, the dish on the tower did not have an obvious control panel.

As the plan was unfolding, Saron Itho noticed a distinct blip in the sensor grid that did not correspond to any of his companions. The blip was quickly moving away, towards the castle!

((OOC: Mechanical Engineering does not help you spot control panels for electronic equipment -- but since there are none to start with, it doesn't matter in this case.))

[T'Sal]

T’sal starts researching for the control panel, maybe it is hidden behind a panel.
If necessary she uses the force to get access to the internal electric system.

((OOC: Force level 5 + Vision 3.
When using the force, she uses telekinesis to open a panel force level 5 + energy 4 + telekinesis 1. (no need for screw drivers )))

[Fecta Trigiel]

((OOC: I posted two actions Trigiel might do, the taken action depends on what Sarin Itho does.

In case Saron Ito decide to tell us about the blip:))
Trigiel takes a good look at the location where the moving blip should be. He draws his gun in case it appeared to be a droid of sorts to warn the guards of the castle. Trigiel is also curious about where the blip was coming from and why they missed the thingy in the first place.
((OOC: Force lever 4 + vision 5 + sensitive optics (infra red, ultra violet, night sight)))

((OOC: In case Saron Itho does not tell us about the blip:))
Trigiel goes toward the droid to examine it. Wondering what the droid does, how it works how its connection is in comparison to the other droids, and if it can be reprogrammed and fixed.
((OOC: Force lever 4 + reason 4 + Mechanical engineer 2))

[Saron Itho]

As soon as Saron Itho saw the blib moving towards the castle, he notified his compagnions: "I can see a blib moving towards the castle, be carefull, it may be hostile!"

[Nebesnogo Sveta]

"Trigel ill have a look at the droid wile you keep an eye out." he then uses some telekinesis to pull the droid towards him so he can have a look at what's wrong with the thing.
((OOC: Force level 4 + Energy 4 + Telekinesis 2 to pull. ]Force level 4 + Reason 5 + Mechanical engineering 3))
