Infiltration and Advanced Sneakiness [Tuesday, August 17]

[sith_happened]

"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."

"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?"

Re: Sneak through the ship!

"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."
