Star Wars The Clone Wars: A Galaxy Of War

Chapter 20: Preparation

"No! Don't take me!" The acting slave yelled, being dragged roughly by a chain that is attached to a collar placed around her neck. The man kept tugging with brute force until Jelia gave in and followed the man. The man placed her on the speeder he owned, and tied her arms never allowing her to sit down on the back.
Tech and Recon watched the vehicle hover away before commencing the second part of the plan. The technician presses a button on his wrist comm. "Jelia has been taken and will be placed on the private selling." The undercover clone notified the general about their progress. "Good. Make sure you go to the penthouse Kataeni will be in. Make sure you divert the room's power to the generator I have provided." Lance gives the two the next set of directives, ending the transmission shortly after.

"You heard the man. To the suite." Tech said, walking out of the alleyway they handed the commander and towards the sidewalk of the busy city. Recon took out his imagecaster and pressed a button on the rim of the circular device, and a blue hologram quickly popped up with the coordinates of the building.
      "The generator is already down in the basement. We simply need to get inside. Recon, do you have the package?" Tech asked his brother, who took off his backpack and searched for the Trojan horse they had in play. "Here it is." The medic answered, taking out a wrapped box. "Good. Let's go." Tech walked towards the entrance of the tall, brown like building.

Recon was the first to approach the counter, where a blonde woman worked behind of and smiled kindly at the clone. "Hello, welcome to the Lee Dan suite. How may I help you?" The young adult asked, looking curiosity at the man in front of her. "Ah, yes. I have a package for room fourteen-eight." He said, showing the worker a tablet that had a forged verification of the local mailing services. "I'm sorry, but the man who reserved that room is not here. Would you like for me keep it in storage until he arrives?" The clerk unknowingly confirmed that Kataeni was in fact going to stay in the suite. "This package is of high importance. I will simply leave it inside his room. He wouldn't want this to get mixed or risk being scratched in anyway." Recon said, trying to convince the girl to let him in the room. She nodded, understanding how important the package was if it were real. "Here you go." Recon grabs the card he was handed before walking to the elevator.

"Tech, I'm up at the floor he'll be staying at. Have you made it to the basement?" Recon asked through his wrist comm, waiting for the lift's door to open. "Yes. I am already re-routing the power for the room." Tech shed light on his progress. 
      "I'm on my way into his room. I'll connect the datapad to the mainframe of the room." The medic said, walking out of the turbolift and down the hall. He sees a wide door that has an encrypted lock console right beside it. Recon grabs the key card and places it in front of the scanner, which beeps and displays a small light bar in green. The door slides upwards, allowing the clone to enter into the penthouse. The clone ran inside, searching for the first vulnerability the room had exposed to him. Recon is not a technician, unlike his partner, but picked up a few things when he watched Tech work.

"Here we go." Recon plugged the tablet to an open port that was connected to a fine polished wooden table. There were cups and an imagecaster placed on the center of the smooth brown surface of the desk, while a cylinder white lamp was neatly placed on the corner of the table. The clone infiltrator chuckled in amusement of how easy this was going. "You can now switch the power, Tech. Now that the tablet is plugged, we'll be able to listen in on the room if Jelia is in trouble." Recon told his brother through his wrist comm. "Power for that floor has been switched. Finish up the job and get down to the basement." Tech said in reply, having switched the generator for the top floor with the one he was given. Recon took out a Westar-35 and hid it behind a painting of the infamous General Grievous, who is holding two activated lightsabers and looking foreword to be facing the viewer. "I hope I can turn him into scrap." He muttered with hate as he backed up towards the desk.

Recon's eyes widen as he heard the door slide up. He had arrived. "Now, why is there a man inside my penthouse?" The man wearing the blindfold asked.
'Oh crap. Ketaeni had arrived earlier than expected.' The clone turned around to face the physically blind man, but knows Ketaeni can see him almost as well as he has seen blaster bolt wounds after battles. "Mr. Risamu. I was simply placing your new datapad  on your desk. It's so hard to find a cheap datapad these days." Recon improvised his mission. Ketaeni walked foreword towards Recon and stopped when they where just several inches apart. The medic takes a step back and blinked. He then waved his hand in front of the male, who had no response. 

"Well thank you. I am in need of a new datapad anyways. Give my regards to whoever sent me this gift." The rich boy said, patting the clone on the shoulders. "Ri-ight. . ." he said, extending the I of the word. "Would you look at the time, I gotta go now. I'll see you around." Recon said before making his way out of the room. 

      "All done, it appeared our guest arrived sooner than we thought." He informed the clone in the generator room down in the basement through his comm. "Well, blast!" The technician grunts. "It'll change a few things, but not everything. I'll inform the general. You, get down here as quickly as possible." He commands. Recon sighed, "This isn't going to end well. . ." He muttered
