Infiltration and Advanced Sneakiness [Tuesday, August 17]

"Welcome to your final class," Anakin said, sweeping into the Danger Shop, today set up as a gigantic empty docking bay. "Today you're job is to sneak through this ~~fully armed and operational~~ battle station past the ~~kind of stupid~~ heavily armed and extremely paranoid Stormtroopers, and turn off the shield that is keeping you trapped on this ship.

He waved a hand and a ~~completely incomprehensible~~ detailed map of the interior of the, frankly, enormous, ship sprung to life in three dimensions. "You are here," he said, pointing, "and need to get here--which is ten kilometers away."

Anakin didn't believe in easy scenarios, no.

"Team up, go alone--just get to the shield generator, switch it off and return here without getting captured or killed. You have only what you've brought with you, or what you can find or take on your way. May the Force be with you."

Bobby... probably could've managed it with his ice-slide, but 1) indoors that was generally a bad idea (even fake indoors) and 2) public setting. So no.

"We could just keep poking at doors until we find one that looks like an elevator?" Bobby suggested.

Bobby was not a strategist, no.

"We'd better check fast," Leia advised, "before someone comes across us just standing her. Come on."

The bay was empty so far, so she moved over to the closest door and peered inside. "How do you feel about playing dress up?" she asked Bobby, looking back over her shoulder.

Bobby followed her gaze, inspecting the uniforms. "I love dressing up," he declared. "It's like Halloween, only with people trying to kill you."

"I'd just as soon skip the killing part," Leia said. "Suit up. I'll see if I can find you a weapon." But looking around, that didn't seem likely.

Bobby tried not to let his distaste show in his expression at the mention of a weapon, and then grabbed a set of armor that looked like it might fit.

"So... how do I look?" he asked, once he'd pulled the whole thing on, complete with dorky helmet.

Leia cocked her head. "A little short for a stormtrooper, but you'll pass," she decided.

No weapons, but she had found the other thing she was looking for, a pair of handcuffs that she put on her own wrists, loose enough for her to slip out of. "And I'm your prisoner," she said.

"I had no idea you were into that sort of thing," Bobby said, grabbing hold of the cuffs to lead Leia out of the room.

"Better not say that loud enough for my father to hear," Leia smirked, then put on her best "woe is me, I am a prisoner" face.

"I may be an idiot but I'm not that much of an idiot," Bobby rolled his eyes.

"Good," Leia said briskly. "Then use that brain and sweet talk us to the shield generator. You have to take me to someone who is waiting there."

And here came a squad of stormtroopers trotting down the hallway, as stormtroopers were wont to do.

...There wasn't a lot to do on board this ship.

Bobby's posture immediately straightened, and he tried to look as if he totally belonged here. At least a helmet made this slightly easier?

Just keep walking, walking, walking... he gave Leia a little shove, silently praying she'd forgive him for that.

Leia stumbled and glared at Bobby. "This is outrageous," she snapped. "Keep your hands off me!"

"Is there a problem here?" the head trooper asked. "What's your designation, Trooper? Where are you going?"

"Uh," Bobby frowned inside the helmet. "I'm taking the prisoner here to Cellblock 8," he tried, ignoring the first question.

"Captain Sturn is expecting me at the shield generator," Leia snapped. "I'm certain if you take me there we can clear up this whole misunderstanding. He'll explain I'm authorized to be here."

"In cuffs," the trooper replied. "No."
