Transport A
...the Blaster Rifle was primed, aimed ahead, when Laith felt the kick that he was waiting for as the Transport made its jump into hyperspace causing the Mercenary to lower his center of balance by bending his knees so that he could avoid losing his footing and possibly toppling over. He waited, Blaster Rifle lowering slightly but still aimed ahead, for the jerk that would follow when the Transport left hyperspace again and it came without delay several moments after the kick that had sent them into that same domain. Laith had no way of knowing where he had come out of hyperspace however if the transponder he had planted on the starship was working the Astrometric Droid on his own Light Freighter would be able to track the current location of the Transport and make a subsequent jump into hyperspace to follow it to this new destination. All that needed to happen next was for Laith to move forward with his plan...
...there was little point in turning back now, odds were security on the Transport were already searching for him, which meant that Laith would press on aware of the consequences his actions might entail. There was an audible hiss as the doors to engineering section of the starship opened wide and the Mandalorian walked in causing the eyes of several technicians to turn in his direction. The Blaster Rifle raised snug into the crevice of Laith's right shoulder at the same time and he pulled the trigger knowing that to call for compliance would only invite at least one man to run for an alarm. Men ran for the alarm anyways only this way they were actively being gunned down by blaster fire that dropped them to the ground dead. Did one of them reach an alarm? Had Laith missed one of them? Difficult to say...
...firing the blaster rifle several more times after taking careful aim Laith would watch as a technician fell with a burn mark on his chest and another hit the floor with a similar mark located on his back. No one would be spared. He had come for his prize and he would not be denied. Laith had to move quickly though, he couldn't delay...
...lowering his Blaster Rifle he'd let one of his hands sweep downwards as he moved through the large alcove serving as the main engineering section for the Transport and he'd remove one of the fragmentation grenades from his belt. Pulling the pin Laith only took a necessary moment before raising the grenade over his head and then hurling it into one of the engineering reactors that powered the starship before he turned and ran...
...BOOM!...
....the explosion caused by a grenade was load but it would be presumably louder when the grenade also destroyed a portion of the reactor, maybe even one of several reactors, causing the Transport to lose engine power and have to compensate. Hyperdrive may have been offline or limited. All part of the plan....
...when the explosion erupted behind Laith as he rushed back to the entrance of engineering he'd uncoil tense leg muscles and dive onto his chest through the doors until he was back inside the dimly lit corridor he'd entered through. Behind him smoke could be seen and would eventually escape through the doors after they had sealed shut while the Mandalorian started to climb back onto his feet and ready his Blaster Rifle for possible resistance responding to the explosion...
