...:: BEGIN LOG ::...

After making it past the grueling trenches of the Vandosian Frontline we made it to their labs. The boys and I holed ourselves up in one of em. But the eerie blue glow coming from the various contraptions and containers led us to leave the warm interior.

We ventured into the cave system, where more of that blue glow haunted us. Meanwhile, our sensors were freaking out, seemingly identifying every rock as a power source. Then we heard an order, it was faint and barely audible. So we headed back up the cavern, if we got closer to the surface we could get a better reading.

Once we reached a cavern that led to the surface, the signal cleared up and the order continued from where it had left off.

"—listen up, Clones! You heard the Admiral; the Seps have a stockpile of Kyber and Atomhen crystals. Our job is to see to it they no longer do, along with blowing up their research facility. We’ll have to put all the crystals in one place—we’ve downloaded a detailed map of a system of caverns. Place the crystals in there and set charges on structural weak points throughout the caves. You may need grappling hooks. I don’t need to remind you how volatile these crystals are, so watch where you place your hooks and make sure the timers are set correctly; we can't risk this tinder box going off while we're still on Vandos Prime. One more thing: command believes there may still be small pockets of battle droids deep within the mines. Stay alert, check your shots. Happy hunting, brothers.

Sergeant Jester out."

My boys and I immediately leapt from our seated positions and headed straight for a Vandosian lab. Attempting to remember where those Kyber barrels had been placed we raced around the room. Finding them, we tossed them into each others arms and started running back down the cavern.

Once we found a structural beam and an adequate platform for our explosions I sent two of my men to scout the platform. One blaster shot rang out minutes later. The distinct sound of a shot from a DC-15 and the absence of multiple shots secured my suspicion. The boys never miss, so I knew it was one of us who had fired.

Guarded by the rest of the squad, I began planting the explosives. One by one I synced them to my hand held control...
