​"Scanners are picking up another ship....several ships." Breedone says.

​"What kind?" Bat asks.

​"Two Gozanti-class freighters..." Breedone starts.

​"Keep your distance. Let them pass." Bat tells the pilots.

​"Yes sir." Diro says as they near an asteroid and touch down on it.

​"Shut down power. Do not let them detect us." Bat orders.

​"On it." Breedone says.

​​The Lobster powers down as it rests on the asteroid. The team sat in the cockpit and watched from afar as a convoy of imperial supply ships and Gozanti-class freighters eases by.

​"Lock onto their trajectory and plot a course after them." Bat orders.

​"Yes sir." Breedone says as he slowly starts powering on the ship to low power.

​"Tracking. Tracking." Diro starts as they scan the convoy as it prepared to make it's jump to hyperspace.

​​The first ship blasts off and Diro locks on it's course.

​"Locked." Diro says.

​"Plot a course after them." Bat orders.

​"Plotting course..." Diro starts as he enters the coordinates into the navcomputer.

​"That takes us to...Baradas II." Breedone says looking at the coordinates in the computer with the course mapped out.

​"Hit it." Bat orders.

​"Aye aye." Diro says giving a small salute and pushing the lever all the way forward and the ship jolts forward and blasts off into lightspeed, following the convoy.

​"Alright Bat...tell me...what's our plan?" Chip asks.

​"Hopefully, avoid their scanners and avoid being seen and just get on the planet. After that...well, I'll improvise." Bat says smirking.

​"Improvise? That's not a plan." Four hisses.

​"It's an improvised plan." Bat tells him.

​"It's not a plan if it's improvised." Four says.

​​Bat shrugs and walks back to take seat. He sets his blaster and helmet on the floor beside him before Four, Chip, and Wesley all sit down beside him.

​"It's gonna be just like old times, right boss?" Wesley asks chuckling.

​"Definitely. Us against all odds." Bat says.

​"Tackling a task that is extremely unreasonable for four people to try to carry that that an army would have a hard time doing." Chip says trying to prove a point.

​"You know, you didn't have to come...right?" Bat asks.

​"What? And let you have all the fun? I'm not letting you run to your death without me." Chip tells him.

​"I'm still trying to figure out if that's a good thing." Bat tells him.

​​Everyone in the ship chuckles and Bat and them continue to crack jokes through the rest of the flight.
