"Take cover"! Rell yelled with his dark voice through the battle in the small and dark corridor. "We are almost there" Talia signaled to the other members of black-squad while shooting towards the mercenaries. "I read signals of incoming reinforcements on the enemy side, they are trying to ambush you..." said a voice in their ears. "Thanks Brick, I'll take care of them" said Mingesh as he threw a thermal detonator towards the corridor behind him. When the detonator exploded it took out the five soldiers that were coming but also their only way to retreat. "How are we supposed to retreat now?" Talia asked as a joke while they started to shoot down the last few mercenaries that were guarding the only way into the escape bunker where Remus was hiding. "We don't need to retreat, we never dose" Rell said with a laugh while Mingesh eliminated the last two mercenaries.
There was now only one locked door and a security system in there way to bring the crime lord Remus to justice.
"Time to shine." Mingesh told Talia as she prepared to do the thing she dose best- slicing a security system. "3... 2... Now!" Talia yelled as the door open and the other members of her squad threw two smoke grenades. This move obviously took Remus and his two bodyguard by surprise and were now easy for Black-squad to handle.
While Rell took care of the two guards Mingesh shot down the auto turret hanging from the roof with a quick and precise shot, which left Talia open to quickly put a pair of electro handcuffs on Remus. "Remus Doxie,your under arrest for the assassination on senator Bormida, The senate will now decide your fate..." Talia continued. "Great work team" Mingesh told everyone as Brick shot a small hole in the bunker from the "broken leaf"
"I will be happy to leave this scum hive Tatooine" Talia said with relief "agree" Rell responded while entering their ship."Excellent work, on behalf from the entire galaxy especially the people here on Coruscant I wish to thank you for bringing Remus Doxie to justice" General Tagg said with his dark, old and thankful voice. "Thank you sir"! Captain Mingesh Jaxo said while speaking for his entire squad. "Each one of you deserves a long rest but I'm afraid that has to wait..." The General said with a serious voice. "My personal team has detected an infiltration in this building..." The General continued not letting any member of black-squad speak. "An infiltration is usually easy to take care of but we know nothing about this one. All we know is that someone close to us is a spy, probably for the empire. You are the only one except for Havoc squad I can trust enough to give this mission, but as you all know Havoc squad has there own problems right now. No one outside my team and the four of you knows about this and I would like to keep it that way, at all cost..." The General said with an irritated voice. "However, my team has located an abandoned apartment on Telos, we believe this is his or hers hideout and operation point. You have 3 hours to prepare before you'll leave for Telos IV Dismiss" The General said ending the conversation. "Yes sir." Mingesh said as he saluted his superior and left his office together with his squad.
"Everyone ready for takeoff?" Mingesh asked his squad as they were about to leave their barracks on Coruscant. "As ready as I can be..." Talia responded with a smile "My stomach is full and so is the ammunition on my friend here" Rell said as he picked up his rifle from the floor. "Brick, is the "broken leaf" ready for takeoff?" Mingesh asked through his comlink. "The storage is full and so is the fuel, she is as ready as she can be..." Brick responded as he looked on their old B5-TYH fighter. "Good, We'll be there in 15 minutes." The young captain said as he grabbed his white and black helmet which matched the rest of his and the other member of black-squad's armor, the only difference form his armor is the blue arm pad that showed that he was captain.
"Did you go to the military camp here?" Talia asked her captain when they had just arrived on Telos. "Yes, I entered the same year as you finished. Every slicer in my year wanted to be as good as you." Mingesh responded with a smile. "What did you train here?" Rell asked as they entered section R where the apartment would be located. "Leader ship and survival" Mingesh responded with a laugh as they entered the dark and shady apartment complex where the hideout would be. This was definitely a place Telos government had forgotten about "I guess I should have trained here instead" Rell said with a small tone of regret in his voice. "Will I ever be a captain..." was a thing Rell often thought about, he had sworn to himself that one day he would but will he ever be a captain or will he break his own promise? "Here it is" Talia said while pointing at apartment 5B. "Well, Let's see what's inside" Mingesh said as he kicked up the locked door. "What happened here?" Talia asked with fear in her voice as she looked inside the room. There was bloodstains all over the floor, claw marks on the wall and all the old furnitures were completely torn to pieces. "I've never seen anything likes this, it's like a Nexu and a Human shared a room." Rell responded trying to figure out this mystery. "Search the area, whatever happened here won't happen to us." Mingesh said with a calming voice even tho he was as scared about this place as his friends.
"Sir, You won't believe this" Rell said looking at a datapad he found underneath a half broken couch. "Are you kidding me?" Mingesh said after looking at the datapad that contained security footage from the last hour. "Did president Lyly do all this?" Talia asked cluelessly. "I'm afraid so, Talia, stay here and see if you can find anything else and transfer this footage to brick so he can send it to HQ, Rell and I will give her a visit." The young captain said slowly walking out of the apartment.
