"The ferry droid is fried." Din sighs out, clearly disappointed.  "Yeah, but if we push the boat out we can get it to downstream—come on." Karga says while bending down, trying to push it with all his might.

"Looks old will it take the heat?" Din asks in question, causing Karga to scowl at the man.
"You got a better idea?" He asks sassily, causing Din to shrug his shoulders slightly. "Guess not."

As the woman both watch the two struggle to push for a solid minute, Celeste couldn't help but smile in slight amusement when Din kicks it out of frustration, and tries to pry it off with an metal hinge of some sort.

"You guys mind getting out of the way?" Cara asks the two while handing the child over to the droid, before shooting the boat free.

"Good job."

"Watch your feet. It's molten lava."

"No kidding."

Once they were in the ferry, Celeste found herself squatting down to get a better look at the ferry droid. "It's not fried." She whispers amusedly, before softly knocks it above it's head. It immediately turns on, making loud beeping sounds as it stands up, catching everyone off guard— most especially Din.

"Get back." He orders the girl, immediately standing in front of her, aiming his weapon at the droid. Celeste couldn't help but laugh slightly at everyone's sudden standoffishness.

"He's an ferry droid—he's not going to hurt us." She says with an smile, causing the droid to cheerful chirping in their direction.

"I don't suppose anyone here speaks droid?" Din asks, causing Celeste to roll her eyes playfully.
"He's asking where we would like to go?" She informs to no one in particular.

"Down river, to the lava flat." Karga informs the ferry droid, who which chirps back in acknowledgement, before following the given order.

After a few minutes of the humming ferry droid taking them down the driver, they finally see light at the end of the tunnel.

"That's it! We're free!" Karga shouts, causing Din tap into his armor electronics, to check himself. "No. No we're not. Storm troopers. They're at the end of the tunnel. Looks like an entire platoon. They must know we're coming." He informs, clearly exhausted from the sound of his voice.

"Stop the boat. Hey, droid, I said stop the boat!" Cara shouts at it, although, it doesn't bother to comply. "Hey! I'm talking to you! I said stop the boat!" She shouts, only causing her to shoot it.
But instead of it stopping the boat completely, it only continues.  "Okay... maybe it was fried." Celeste admittedly whispers to herself.

"Looks like we fight." Cara states.

"They're are too many." Din informs, clearly stressing out at what to do next.
