Star Wars: The Lord in Exile

Fire Across the Galaxy (S1 Finale)

At an Imperial docking area, a Gozanti-class cruiser was docked while docked TIE Fighters and patrolling Stormtroopers surrounded it. Comm chatter filled the area as two Stormtroopers patrolled along the edge of the docking post. From behind a small building, Sabine appeared with one of her spray paint canisters out.

"Miss me, bucketheads?" she called out, letting a few puffs of paint from her container.

"It's her!"

The trooper opened fire, Sabine parkoured up the small hut and rolled down across a crate as she avoided every shot.

"Yup, you definitely missed me."

"We have an intruder on the North side, Sector nine. The artist is back. Sound the alarm."

An alarm rang through the compound as Sabine lured the troopers away. Erza, Zeb, and Aurelian watched as the Mandalorian cleared the way for them. The prince smirked as he watched his girlfriend's retreating figure, he was so distracted he didn't hear his comrades calling out to him.

"Hey, blue-blood!" Zeb shouted, pulling Aurelian along. "Ogle later. We have work to do."

"My apologies."

The three boarded the docked cruiser and got the ship up and running quickly. Sabine took cover on the roof of a building as the Stormtroopers opened fire on her. She ducked down to avoid a shot and smirked underneath her helmet.

"You got a little better." she joked, running off and bouncing off a troop to break her fall. She then climbed a TIE Fighter and looked down at the troops. "But I got a lot better."

The Mandalorian climbed and ran to the departing cruiser, the Stormtroopers looked and saw Zeb waving mockingly to them. So they turned their guns from Sabine to the ship.

"That's not one of us!" a trooper shouted as they opened fire.

Sabine made it to the landing pad of the ship and saluted to the Stormtroopers, "Bye bye Bucketheads!"

A beeping was heard that made the Stormtroopers freeze in horror. They looked and saw their ships lined with explosive charges.

"Not again." one complained. "Everyone evacuate!"

The Imperial troopers all ran as the TIE Fighters exploded as the stolen cruiser took off into the night. Sabine even added something to the charges so the smoke made a phoenix symbol as it rose into the sky. Aurelian and the Mandalorian kissed when they met up in the ship, causing Zeb and Ezra to groan in annoyance.

========================================================================

The Gozanti-class cruiser docked with the Ghost as both ships floated through space. G5 had a new blue and gold paint job as he had become a permanent part of the Spectre crew. They all looked at a holographic display of Mustafar and the small fleet of Star Destroyers surrounding the planet. Kanan was in Tarkin's personal Star Destroyer, the Sovereign which was guarded by three more Imperial-1 Star Destroyers.

"The transport you stole will get us close to the fleet over Mustafar. We know they have Kanan on Tarkin's Star Destroyer." Hera explained.

"And it's surrounded by a bunch of other Star Destroyers." Zeb noted.

"Uh, lots more. We'll need a distraction to cover our entry. Sabine?"

Sabine examined the Star Destroyer and stroked her chin. "Engine room's here... all the power for the ship. If we could get inside the docking bay, I could rig something, black 'em out. But our transport ship's not gonna fit in there."

Hera spoke once more, "We need something small enough to get into that hangar bay. " she let out a sigh of contemplation. "Too bad we destroyed all the TIEs at that base."
