Shab quickly swapped out one of the comm links on the dead soldiers with Kraven's as she attached the grenades that Shkala handed her to them. She paused, before stomping on the one she'd removed. Then they dragged the corpses towards an airlock, dumping them rather unceremoniously in it. Shkala and Kric took a step back as Shab knelt down to place a mine on top, linking it to a detonator she had in her hand, and closed the inner airlock door as she left.

She urged Kric and Shkala out of the storage room they were in and shut that door behind them, pressing a button on the intercom next to it. "If you could make it look like we got hit, that'd be great." Shab stated, one hand holding onto the wall whilst the other was on the detonator.

Shkala and Kric shared a worried look, as they turned to find something to hold onto. Especially when the ship rocked as it pulled manoeuvres the inertial dampeners couldn't entirely compensate for. "Now!" Xam called over the intercom.

Shab hit the airlock outer door, then hit her detonator. They heard the blast and moments later they felt the hyperdrive engage. Shab quickly hurried to check on the sensors. "Minimal damage to the airlock outer door. Though I'm not sure I'd use it unless we don't have a choice." She reported. "So far no pursuers."

Shkala and Kric had followed rather cautiously. "She's crazy, like psycho crazy." Shkala whispered.

"They're all that kind of crazy." Kric retorted. They shared a look as if to ask what exactly they'd walked into.

No one can see the smirk on Shab's face. "Oh, I'm way ahead of you." She assures him. "Comm link, now. I'm not having some demented droid in need of a memory wipe undoing all my hard work." She pauses with her hand out towards Kraven. "I'll make you a new one, a better one." She entices.

Meanwhile Xam tells Kric and Shkala to gather their mines and grenades whilst she goes to plug in a planet at random. Right not she doesn't care, they can change course later if need be, but anywhere has to be safer than Junkka. Or what was left of it.

"Xam, get on the turrets!" Shab shouted from where she was still sat in the copilots chair, flicking one of the switches above her head as she tries to manoeuvre away from the ship chasing them. "I bet it's that bloody droid..." She muttered to herself.

Xam hurried to do as she was asked, whilst the other two looked at each other and made a start on moving the bodies towards an airlock. Though Shkala checked their pockets for goodies first.

"Wait, before you two toss anything..." Shab started, eyes still on her controls as Kraven took his pilot's seat again. "Do you still have your comm link?" She asked Kraven.

Astra stared after him with her hands on her hips and a slightly incredulous look on her face. "He's always been arrogant." She muttered, turning back to Fraya. "What happened?" She asked more seriously.

"I could ask you the same thing." Fraya replied, indicating to the creature Nitsua was carrying.

"We followed a darkness, found him attacking a young girl. Dealt with it." Astra summarised. "If you won't tell me what happened then tell me how to help."

Fraya considered this. She had already briefly outlined the bomber had done it, any other details at this stage would probably backfire on her later, and she didn't want Astra helping look for survivors, she'd probably be too efficient at it. "We already have people searching the rubble." Fraya explained, indicating Astra follow her. "We have already found survivors, though we are short on healers."

Astra nodded and turned to the make-shift camp where survivors were being brought, with frantic medical staff running between them, though few Jedi. Even in the survivors there were few Jedi amongst them, mostly civilians come to watch the trial of the bomber. Astra rolled up her sleeves and set to work, she could help here.

Nei tugged on Sara Jane's arm, the girl had insisted on finding a vantage point to see what had happened. And Nei had humoured her, but now they needed to go and find somewhere safe to recuperate after the fight. And Sara Jane needed time to grieve.

Nei took the girl back to where the Jedi Council chambers used to be, after the initial wave of bombings many of the buildings around the area had been abandoned by those who lived or worked there. They were empty, and people had already had plenty of time to finish looting. Even so, she picked one that looked least appealing to looters, and encouraged Sara Jane to sleep, whilst she kept watch for now.

Shab managed to resist flipping Kraven a rude Mandalorian gesture. "Yes." She replied instead. Then she saw Xam raise her head out of cover where she and the other two were providing covering fire to keep the fighting away from the hangar. "Duck." She added seriously, diving down to avoid whatever it was that Xam was about to do.

==========

Xam had managed to organise the other two relatively easily, they were clearly used to fighting, she just had to get them used to fighting with more than just each other.

For now, however, she had one of Shkala's incendiary grenades and was busy adding a sonic blast to it. Then leaning out of cover just long enough to shoot at them to get them where she wanted them, and tossed the grenade as Shab saw what she was up to.

"A droid stun should have similar effects." Astra suggested. "Nei can you slow him down? That gives me a good shot, and leaves Nitsua free to pin him down if this doesn't entirely disable him."

Nei nodded, and braced herself, readying herself to slow Venrii when he started running at them.

Fraya regards Penalla coolly. "Intriguing. Accusing the Republic of failing in their duties to the Jedi should work well enough. However to have a council worth using, there has to be more than one member." She paused. "So do I get any recruits? Any survivors? I'm not fussy, but rebuilding would be quicker than building."
