~~~Maris Team~~~
Aselk received the information and began to hack into the base systems and fish through the files. She was stopped by the firewall when she found the base controls and was lucky that it didn’t set off any alarms when she was stopped. The firewall had a second layer with a timer that would bring the entire system to a lockdown if the code wasn’t entered in time.
Aselk quickly started to look for the code before she fully broke through the wall. She started to dig through a few junk files and she found the code but it was separated into different segments. She started to work on combining the different segments. The segments were not placing this piece in front of this one but an intertwining of the codes. It took her three hours to break the code into its base form and then another three hours combining them in the right sequence.
With the code in hand she finished breaking through the first firewall and quickly entered the code. With the firewall down she began to open the doors when Rste and Tess were ready to pass through them. Aselk walked the two of them through the base to the lockers. They were able to skirt past the NR troopers with no problems.
Rste and Tess grabbed the laundry cart and grabbed nine different uniforms of varying ranks. With the full cart they began to look for different ID cards to see if there was a difference in each rank and roles. They were able to walk past many troopers as no one really cared about two laundry folks.
As they walked past the groups they noticed each job had a different mark to show what role the member had. They walked around till they spotted the delivery crews IDs card and were able to swipe one. With the card in hand they made their way towards the exit this time trying to avoid any confrontation.
The team made it to the exit and spotted a guard just outside the loading bays. Rste noticed he was pacing, and waited for him to turn his back to them. The second he turned around they left the complex and ran to the other side of the street to try to blend in. They made it just as he started to turn back around and decided to walk the way he just came to not bring any attention to them.
~~~Arthur Team~~~
Arthur was sitting at the FOB preparing his team for their stake out mission. He was looking over the map on his datapad trying to find any kind of alternate routes between the city and the NR base. The map he had only showed two roads that lead towards the base, but knowing that military roads never showed up on maps he started to deploy his B-1AA Air Assault Battle Droids to search the area and update the map on his datapad.
The droids found two direct routes to the base, and began to upload the data to Arthur data-pad. The second the map was updated he knew that the transports took a different route everyday to prevent what Arthur was trying to do. The only way to figure out which route the transport was taking was to hijack it while it was in route or to hack in and steal the route. He opened his com-link to Maris to have Aselk look for what route the truck was taking.
Arthur had his team split up and cover the roads and every time a military vehicle past them to make a note of it. He was hoping to figure out the pattern to make the hijack easier. The team broke down the FOB and split into separate squads to watch the roads. They knew that this was the dull part of the smuggling job but they knew that after this dull phase was over that they would get to see some real action.
~~~One week later~~~
The team was getting restless waiting to gather enough data to spring this ambush. Arthur made another mark into his notes and then signaled the rest of his team to meet at the ship. The restless crew was ready for action and very twitchy. Arthur grabbed the information they gathered and began to try to plot their next course of action.
He read and reread the information, and found that the base receives two shipments every other day. The first is a trooper resupply, and the second is a food and medical drop. The only thing he could not figure out is which route they take at which drop. It seemed to jump all over the place with no pattern.
Maris opened a com-link to Arthur. “We think we finally have the next transports route we are sending it to you for verification.”
Arthur received the transports route he sent Nabk Iasa and Omte Rner. They grabbed their equipment and made the journey to the road. Arthur sat down and waited for the call telling them if the transport past or not.
Nabk set up in a good hide spot and handed Omte the 1125 Heads-Up Macrobinoculars. Nabk started to look down the sights, and watched for the truck. Omte looked at his watch and started to count down the estimated time it would pass. The transport came over the horizon when he reached two. “We spotted the truck Arthur; tell them that they were right. We are on our way back to the FOB sir.”
“Rodger that I’ll have them take the transport from the city they will pick us up on route. When they arrive you two will take up an over watch at the base.” Arthur told them.
~~~Maris Team~~~
“Maris your team will hijack the transport in the city. When you guys are on the road message us so we can meet you for a ride.” Arthur.
“Will do boss we’ll see you on the road.” Maris said. She turned to her team and told them. “You heard him we are a go. Aselk finish up the documents we need to make this seem as real as possible.”
Aselk went back to creating the background information for the bulk of the team. The last member she had to create a background for was Arthur. The task ahead for her was not easy as she had a lot of work trying to create the officer rank for him. It took her four hours to completely solidify his background information.
Aselk looked over to Maris and said. “Now if the payroll guys look over these files we could be getting paid by them.”
“Good. Now let’s go steal us a transport.” Maris responded.
The group nodded and began to suit up in the NR uniform. Aselk handed them their ID cards, and sent a message to the crew they where hijacking from to stand down a new crew was ordered to recall the faulty last shipment. They left the hotel out the back door towards the Transport center. Aselk had her forged supplies recall orders in her hand when they reached the center.
The team entered the building and handed the orders to the head of the transport center. He read and reread the orders, and looked up and simply said. “This recall isn’t because of my guys is it?”
“No sir, I have reports that the bacta was not properly filtered and has caused some serious infections in some of the people that were treating. There are also reports that the rifles have been overheating, and the worst cases that have been reported is that those rifles have exploded. I don’t know if you would call it lucky, but the one holding the rifle was the only one killed.”
“It’s not really lucky but the fact that we were able to locate the weapons and the medical supplies is a good sign. Here are the base authorization codes and the access codes to the transport. I’ll radio the base ahead and let them know your coming.” The centers commander said.
The team saluted and boarded the transports. They entered the codes and began their journey to the base. The transport past the city limits and Maris messaged Arthur that they were on the road and sent him what route they were taking.
Arthur prepared his crew, and sent the sniper team to their over watch position. Arthur active his droids and left Harzo to make sure nothing that came by could deactivate the droids. The two groups left the FOB and made their way to their respective holding locations.
