Cuyan~ (OC x Clone wars)

Subterfuge

"So let me get this straight," I told the Council. "You want me to go, by myself to a well-defended separatist compound, sneak in, kill the leaders, sneak out, and aid in the assault?" The Jedi just stared at me. "Sure, I'll do it. Do we have any plans of the compound?

"Only basic ones, but Master Kenobi can supply you with them. Will you require anything else?"

I mulled it over. "No, probably not. I'll try not to disappoint." 

They didn't respond.

"Kay bye." I turned around and walked out of the room, rolling my eyes. I have a feeling my General was doing the same.

I decided to bop over to see Relay and Pepper and the rest of them. "Hey guys. We got a new mission," I said, walking into the 212th common room. 

"Ares punched the air. "Yeah!" he yelled. "Finally!"

Aphro rolled his eyes. "Hm. Well the air on Coruscant is badly polluted which does NOT help my pores, so I'll be happy to get off-world."

Ares buffeted his batchmate's shoulder. "Only you would worry about that, brother." 

I smile at my friends. Relay asks, "What's the mission?"

"Well there's an official briefing tomorrow, but I'll assassinate the leaders and you all will storm the compound. They got it from a couple of moves Ventress has tried to pull on us, though with my skill set I'll be better at it."

"Well of course." Relay turns back to the general conversation. 

Pepper turns to me. "If we're leaving tomorrow, then we better stock up on supplies tonight," he mutters to me. He means pranking supplies and some good food. The rations are fine, but bad for me because I'm a carnivore and they don't taste good to the clones either. 

"I'll head to our supplier once Obi-Wan's asleep," I murmur back. He nods and we turn back to the rest of the clones. Aphro is narrowing his eyes at us. I give him my most innocent look, which only makes him more suspicious of Pepper and me. He knows we're up to something. I flash him a feral smile. He has the IQ to look mildly afraid.

I laugh and fully address the conversation. "Oh, Plo would 100% beat Kit Fisto. No questions." "Well no, not if they were underwater." Today I might be a fearsome assassin-commander, but today I'm just a girl with her friends.

Now I'm an assassin. I've memorized my route to the conference room of the compound, but first I have to get to it. I land a small ship a few miles away and trek the rest of the way. Now I'm at the foot of the cliff-mountain-tepui thing that the separatist base is on.

 I stare up at it as I rip the legs off a dead Porg. Those things are parasites, they infest ships to get to new planets and then they take over. It's my carnivorous duty to eat as many of them as I can. 

ANYWAY, I finish my lunch and begin to climb. I could do basic rock climbing, which would be fun, but it's easier and faster to Jedi-jump up the side from ledge to ledge. 

Once I'm at the top I need to get in. This can be the hardest part of many clandestine operations since people don't typically leave the door open. Luckily for me, however, a B1 battle droid was walking up to the door, staggering under the weight of a large crate. It inputs a complicated code that I have no hope of memorizing, it's like 20 digits long. Droids can be coded to input it quickly though, and they have infinite patience. 

But once the doors open I can easily slip into the compound. They have cameras, almost certainly, but they can't perceive my camouflage.  Penetrating the base was easier than expected, which was nice.
