Ryloth/En Route to Czerka Outpost
14:11 local time
A convoy of 3 Speeder Trucks escorted by 2 Technicals and 4 88-V Rangers sat stationary at the mouth of a canyon. Several Czerka Corp units as well as mercenaries, enough to fill all the vehicles, were sitting around. Two were playing cards while another sat in the door of one of the trucks, nodding his head to a catchy song playing on the radio. Sitting on one of the Ranger speeders was a young Zabrak Mandalorian. But instead of the usual red markings and horns on his helmet he was clad in blue armour. His helmet hung from the handle of his speeder while an E-33 carbine sat in his hands, busy being fiddled with as the Zabrak inspected his weapon. All his other gear was accounted for as well. Pistols, grenades...he seemed ready for a battle to break out any moment.
And he needed to be...
The route they needed to take led right through a canyon that used to be a town. It's been long since abandoned, but there have been several skirmishes with local terrorists that despise the presence of Czerka Corp on their planet. And with no other route the company was forced to step up their convoy's protection against these locals. Including hiring mercenaries...a job right up Sumas' alley. Their destination was Outpost #0666, or "Devil's Den" according to the locals. Job was simple. Escort the convoy without losing a truck...easier said than done.
"A'right! Break time's over, let's moun' up!" a Czerka officer barked as he stood on the step of one of the trucks. He pointed to Sumas and another merc. "Mandalorian! You and tha' girl got point. Take your speeders an' ge' out front!" he barked, receiving a blank stare from Sumas. He holstered the carbine on his back and took his helmet. "Well you heard ol' salty. Let's get out front." he said with a smirk to the girl and slid his helmet on before starting up his speeder.
