"We have an inside man on the Death Star." Said Cassian. "Hopefully that will prevent the firing of the Death Ray or whatever they call it!" He continued.
"Ok fleet, let's get moving." The doors opened for the second time, and the entire fleet ran out, guns a blazing. Soldiers fell over one by one taking shots from head and shoulders and everywhere. Jyn and Cassian ran to the Empire Plan Building. They entered, in disquise with K2SO alongside.
"This really wasn't a very good idea was it?"
*On the Death Star*
"Ok, start preparing to fire." Said Tarkin.
"Ready in T-Minus 60 minutes." Said the Lead Imperial excitedly.
The defense expert came in running. "EVACUATE THE DEATH STAR!!!" He shouted. "IT'S GONNA BLOW!"
"How long?" Asked Tarkin.
"30 MINUTES!!!"
Tarkin took over the comms. "EVERYBODY EVACUATE. THE DEATH STAR IS GOING TO BLOW IN 30 MINUTES."
"Abort the ray?"
"Yes, I'm afraid." Said Tarkin sadly. "Get Darth Vader on the telecoms. And somebody'll have to explain to Vader why Scarif is still on the map. God help that person."
"I'll do it." Said Krennic nervously, regretting ever saying it.
Somebody ran in with a smile on his face. "WE HAVE MANAGED TO DIFFUSE THE BOMB!"
*25 MINUTES LATER*
"Ok. Fire when rea..." He fell silent, then collapsed.
"Oh dear. He's dead."
Then, the whole station went silent.
They knew what was about to go down.
"Oh brilliant..."
The Death Star exploded.
*On Scarif*
They watched the explosion gleefully.
"Rogue One. It looks like we won't need the plans! Everybody return to the shuttle!" Said Bodhi. "Alive please!" He added.
"Hang on.." Commed Jyn, "We should get them anyway. Then destroy them."
"Okay. But if we all die it's your fault!" He laughed.
She ran, almost too cautiously, dodging along, keeping to the trees. She approached the king kong like building, and it loomed like a punishment you know will take place, and you're scared. Petrified. Not Jyn. She couldn't afford to.
Suddenly, a metal hand grabbed her, smothering her mouth.
"Well, it was either you, or an Imperial Officer." I'd rather the latter, because then it wouldn't be a metal psychopath with no cognitive function."
