In the middle of the night, I go walking through my sleep

Kamar
Dust Trust Corporations

36 Hours. It was the amount of time Ladro had been given to bring a team together and breach atmosphere. A feat that Ladro prided himself on being able to do. When the holovid projected the face of a man, who was surely some random face in the crowd and no one important, spoke of a Rival corporation needing to lose track of their CEO the gears in his head already began working. The basic information passed to him was location, planet, and name.​
Dust Trust Corporations, Kamar, Spencer Dantesfield
Intel gathered showed why the corporation could be easily over looked but highly profitable. Their entire corporation had gained the contract for mass producing ships with air filtration systems and from the looks of it they were the best. Already they had gained business reaching out to corporations half way across the galaxy. Even the repair parts had to be bought through the Dust Trust corp.​
The feed then shorted out leaving a objective at hand leading to hours of work. This span of time had not been spent idling by. Ladro himself had called a few contacts and paid their 2.5 million credit salaries up front. Someone trying to make a name for themselves among fellow employees was not what he needed for this job so becoming their employer was a must. Knowing who to ask with the right touch of experience all fell into place in his head but more importantly they had answered. There was a reason Ladro was a faceless man to know. When you paid him to move mountains worlds began to shake. This ridiculous salary was undoubtedly the main reason they had all arrived at the Hangar Bay specified on time and were now in his ship and breaching Kamar Atmosphere.​

A holovid projected the structure in the middle of the room all of his teams members were in.​
"Briefing has been short and sweet but now it's show time and I don't need any of you mucking around down there. If you fall behind then you get left behind. Onto the logistics. The corporation's manufacturing plant is one hundred percent ran by A.I. which means that normally speaking only two or three employees need be there. This is not a normal week. Dantesfield arrived earlier in the morning hours for a three day long inspection of a new security system. This may sound bad for us but rest assured we couldn't ask for a better way in. The system will have kinks and bugs. These stress points within their system we will be breaking while the battle droids are brand new."

"Approaching from the north will be our best option due to the mountainous cover. Jammers will be shot at the main protruding structure killing the feed to cameras directed in our location giving us a short opening. They can stay on for no longer than three minutes without alerting the system of a major malfunction causing attention we can't afford. Once entering the structure we will be met with dozens of access shafts leading down into the facility. From hear we will split up stationing micro jammers around the facility disrupting their feed enough to seem like breaks in the system and nothing more. During this time we will have no radio contact. Based on the timers around your wrists you will have thirty minutes to set your jammer and return to the access shafts. I will meet you back there with the target and from there we will leave. It sounds simple because it should be. If you are met with any security I suggest you act quickly. The droids are apart of the new Rapture series. Deadly force is what they will meet you with."
The holoscreen in front of his face lit up showing the distance from the atmosphere surface. Show time. Rushing to the cockpit and yanking on the controls brought the ship through a few narrow mountain passes before he set her down cleanly. Mission started now. Boots hit planet surface while a sniper rifle specificly designed to fire micro dots was draped across his back while a blaster rifle sat comfortably on his hip.​
"Let's move."

And to think this was supposed to be a windfall job for Ashi. She'd at least though that when the offer for 2.5 million credits was paid upfront in exchange for pulling what seemed like a simple infiltration job for some big-wig CEO of a company or the like. She never paid much mind to the why of the job, only the how and the what. And after being breifed as she was before they touched down on the planet Ashi was a little more than suspicious of what to expect. It wasn't made any better when the imagry of the secruity droid was shown, showing at least some type of opposition to epxect once inside the facility. Still at this point it was best to take it and get it done fast, even with the rules of if left behind then staying behind came up. That was fine with her. And should the mission go south at least she could bail with the money if need be. A smuggler like herself needs to eat after all.

Once the exited the ship she drew both of her small blaster and said "Lead the way, boss-man."

When the walk through the mountains had been completed and his team was at the threshold LAdro called for them to stop. Drawing the scope of his sniper rifle to his eye to calculate the distance and amount of shots needed was met with a sense of calm like when the eye witnesses the lightning before the thunder struck. The men and women surrounding him didn't know that the new security protocol droids were due to the CEO they were after having already escaped a failed assassination attempt by Ladro's Employer's first pick. They were more inclined to make a better decision the second time around by hiring someone they could trust. The other huge problem, that Ladro had again decided was on a need to know basis, was the fact that this attempt was only two days ago. The CEO they were now after wasn't here to test new facility security but instead turning his corporation into a military bunker. Hundreds of these droids had been brought to this very facility to stop the likes of the hooded man staring it down through his scope in that very moment.
Ladro's tone was thick in his accent that he had picked up as a young Pirate vessel crew member with less rights than a slave hand, "Avrete trenta secondi per superare i pannelli solari prima di riattivare e ci ucciderà tutti. Buona fortuna." the last words resonating softly enough to sned warning but loud enough to reach the crew members surrounding him. The weapon in his hand snapped across his chest with incredible precision connecting his scope to the camera dots housed on the center tower. As the last camera was hit the weapon was thrown from his grasp. Every ounce of energy was being demanded out of the muscles as they kicked into a sprint and that were now pushing him forward faster and faster. The soft rocks shifted under his boots as they dug in slightly with each foot fall. The rows of solar panels were completely straight giving his eyes a target and feet a clear path. Behind the corporations tower was the setting sun casting rays of pure orange and golden beams that the members of his team were cutting through each second as they all raced to get there. Ladro was sure none of them had known what he had meant but this wasn't stopping them from giving it everything they had to get across at the same time as him. If only they knew in a few short seconds the beauty they were witnessing would be harnessed to cremate the bodies their souls were trapped in.

Translation of Ladro's sentence: You'll have thirty seconds to get past the solar panels before they reactivate and kill us all. Good Luck.
 
Every muscle in his legs were beginning to scream from the amount of effort being pumped through each stride. Damn this world. Damn everything if he didn't make it. There was no other option. The rolling clock in front of his face began to count down from 20 seconds. The reality sunk in turning belief of death into pure adrennaline. Aching was no more and a burst of pure speed shot through his body. For the strides that followed it felt as if they could only go faster and faster. The amount of steps per second seemed to triple.
10 seconds
Short bursts of air released from deep in his chest. The rest of the oxygen remained within as a chance to be used. Pure gut wrenching hell filled him. Five more lengths of solar panels stood before him. Two of which he passed just as the clock began to count down from;
5 seconds.
Everything he had was thrown into each stride. Another solar panel whizzed past him to his right. Three seconds remained. Mind over matter spurred him forward no longer realizing the clock. A panel and a half were cleared before blind intuition called upon him to leap. Within the next stride Ladro threw everything he had momentum wise forward sending him into the air. A red screen signaled the clock ending. Screams bellowed from two of his personal crew members who hadn't made it in time. Their echoing pain reaching him while his body slammed into the ground sending the small rock fragments outwards from where his body landed and skid to a halt. A wide mouth gasped for air and black fuzzy spot filled eyes blinded him while he picked himself off of the ground and moved forward towards the tower. A second glance wasn't given to the fallen.
