"I'll tell the others." Jyn offered before walking down the stairs. 

"SW-0608 clear for landing pad 9. Acknowledge, please." A male voice said through the intercom.

"SW-0608 proceeding to LP9 as instructed." Bodhi confirmed.

"The main building down there, what is it?" Cassian inquired.

I then glanced over to see the tower that he was referring to. What is that tower, especially the dish?

"That's the Citadel Tower. They keep all the Imperial structure archives in there. If the plans are anywhere, they'll be there." Bodhi explained.

"The dish at the top? What's it for?" I questioned.

"I guess it takes a lot of signals to send those data files out." Bodhi replied.

I merely nodded. Good to know.

"Landing track engaged." K-2SO informed him.

"Landing track locked." Bodhi responded.

I then climbed down where the others were along with Cassian. We informed the others that we were landing soon. Jyn then turned to the others to speak to them.

"Saw Gerrera used to say, one fighter with a sharp stick and nothing left to lose can take the day. They have no idea we're coming. They have no reason to expect us. If we can make it to the ground, we'll take the next chance. And the next." Jyn encouraged. "On and on until we win... or the chances are spent. The Death Star plans are down there. Cassian, K2, Storm, and I will find them. We'll find a way to find them."

"Melshi, Pao, Baze, Chirrut, Jinx, Dianya, Alotren, you'll take main squad, move east and get wide of the ship. Find a position between here and the tower." Cassian commanded. "Once you get to the best spot, light the place up. Make ten men feel like a hundred."

"All right." They all nodded.

"And get those troopers away from us." I added.

"What should I do?" Bodhi asked as he joined us.

"Keep the engine running. You're our only way out of here." Cassian urged.

"Whatever happens today remember that this is for our families and to the Rebellion. Let's make the Council regret their decision into not coming here." I encouraged. "I believe we can make it far, farther than what the Empire thinks. They underestimate us, so let's take that to our advantage. May the Force be with us all. For the Rebellion!"

"For the Rebellion!" All of them cheered.

"Cargo shuttle SW-0608, be prepared to receive inspection team." We then heard a voice through the intercom said.

"Ready?" Jyn asked.

I nodded. "As ready as I'll ever be."

As soon as the team entered the ship, Bodhi sent them down towards us. We knocked them all out, taking their disguises. Alotren, Dianya, and Jinx gave me hugs, wishing me good luck. Baze then turned towards Jyn and me. "Good luck, little sisters."

Jyn and I smiled at his words. At that moment Bodhi shouted out. "Go! Go now, you're clear!"

With that we went our separate ways to execute the plan. Once we were inside on the elevator, K-2SO spoke. "I have a bad feeling about..."

"K!" Cassian warned.

"Quiet." Jyn hushed.

"What?" K-2SO asked with an innocent tone.
