The Citadel

I was in a meeting with Master Plo, Anakin, Obi-Wan and our Commanding Officers.

"As you are aware, the Citadel is their most isolated and impenetrable detention facility. No one has ever escaped." Master Plo says.

"There's a first time for everything." Anakin says.

"I agree." I say.

"Indeed there is." Obi-Wan agrees with us.

"Their security has prevented our probes from obtaining recent reconnaissance. So we've been forced to construct a crude map based upon data from the archives." Master Plo says, showing us the map.

"And since the data is extremely old, the map will be difficult to rely on." Obi-Wan says to us and I nod in agreement.

"So we're essentially going in blind." Anakin says.

"Basically." I reply as I shrug casually.

"Beg your pardon General, but how do we know Master Piell is still alive?" Rex's hologram asks.

"The Separatists won't dare kill Master Piell until they have what they need." Master Obi-Wan replies.

"He obtained coordinates of a secret hyperspace lane known as the Nexus Route." Master Plo says.

"Which travels both into the Heart of the Republic and Separatist Home Worlds." I explain in agreement with him.

"They could prove vital in maneuvering our forces deep into remote Separatist sectors." Obi-Wan says.

"Or the enemy could use them to slip through our defenses and attack Corusant." Anakin points out.

"These hyperspace lanes are of immense interest to both our sides. And could tip the scale of the war to whoever is in possession of them." Master Plo agrees.

"That is all." he concludes before the holograms and transmissions shut off. Master Plo, Anakin, Obi-Wan, Krux and I walk out.

"Based on the archives schematics, we've narrowed it down to three possible locations they could be holding that." Master Plo says.

"My greatest concern is infiltrating their outer security. The life form scanners will not be easy to fool." Obi-Wan says, his hand on his beard in though.

"I've got a thought about that." Anakin says with a smile and I hope it's not carbon freezing. I am not in the mood to be a wall decoration, thank you very much!

"Master! *catches up and walks between Anakin and I* I'm sorry I'm late! I just heard about the briefing. We're going to rescue Master Piell, right?" Ahsoka asks making Anakin stop and cross his arms. Master Plo, Obi-Wan and I turn to look at the two of them.

"You two have much to discuss." Master Plo says to them.

"Indeed." I agree before the three of us walk away from Anakin and Ahsoka so he can talk to her.

Cruiser, Nexu, Blaster, Bruiser, Nick, Sentry, Sebastian, Samuel, Boomer, Luther, Mark, Mick and Target were my selected Troopers for this mission for my men. I walk up to Fives, Echo, Commander Cody, and other men from the 501st and 212th. We see the three battle droids following R2 and the three following R5, making me roll my eyes in exasperation.

"We're trusting those droids to get us into the Citadel?" I hear Fives mutter.

"Trust me, I don't like it either." I reply to him.
