The Bad Batch found an entrance to the city, and contacted General Skywalker, me and Rex. It's really windy up here, it's a good thing I'm wearing a helmet because I think there's sand in the wind. General Skywalker doesn't look very happy, of course he isn't. Sand's coarse, rough, irritating, and it gets everywhere, just like Crosshair. At least, when I finally get a chance to stab him. I kinda wanna rip his guts out while he's still alive, no one talks shit about Echo and makes it through the night.
"We're in business, General. Tech regained Echo's signal," Hunter says as we reach them. "It's coming from this tower. How's it going Tech?"
Tech doesn't reply, he's busy hacking the door, and in a few moments, the door opens.
"Sorry it took so long."
Shut up and stop flexing.
"Hey Crosshair, go and check it out," Hunter says and Crosshair walks into the place.
"Yea, it's a lift."
No need to state the obvious.
"Well we already knew that," Tech says as we all walk in.
"Wait wait wait, a lift?" I hear Wrecker's sounding a bit scared. "How far up are we going?"
"Don't worry Wrecker, I'll hold your hand," Hunter replies, receiving a shoulder knock from Wrecker. "Hey cut it out Sarge. Just gimme some droids to crush."
The lift door closes and we ascend.
"Remember, this is a stealth mission. No blasting, no blowing things up. Nobody knows we're here," General Skywalker says and the doors open, revealing a bunch of droids, and the batch and I run in, blasting the remaining droids that Wrecker hasn't destroyed or thrown off the building.
Hunter and Crosshair take out the ones near the edge, while Tech and I take out the ones guarding the hallway. I manage to get 3 of them with my sword as Tech rolls and takes cover behind the crates.
Some more droids come out from the hallway and Wrecker starts taking care of them, running over to the 2 droids at my place, but I take them out with a shot to the head in one and I throw my knife at the other, hitting it square in the head.
Once they all get taken out, Wrecker starts shouting "YEAHHHH" like he just won a battle royale solo in the legendary rank in Call of Duty.
Shit don't think about that. Anyways, cringe.
I cringe slightly and all of us stare at Wrecker with that "tf bro" look under our helmets.
"Uh sorry. I just got excited," he says, walking over to us.
"I've still got a lock on Echo's signal," Tech says.
"Alright men, let's hunt some droids," Hunter says and we walk into the hallway. We walk for about a minute before we reach a door, Hunter's the first to look out, and then signals to Rex, and they go out and blast the droids. The rest of us walk out.
"Where exactly is Echo's signal coming from?" General Skywalker asks.
"Strange. I just lost the signal," Tech says as Rex takes off his helmet.
"What? How can that be? There's no 'atmospheric disturbances' up here."
"Well, I have a new theory. I'm surprised I did not consider it earlier." Tech sounds like an AI. "The signal is only traceable during data transmissions. So until Echo dispenses more intel, I cannot pick up the signal."
"Okay, we're splitting up," General Skywalker says. "Search every door. If someone finds Echo, contact the others. We go in together, just in case there's trouble."
