They had been keeping track of these spice runners for some time now. At first the tribe had thought that the first time these trespassers passed through their land was a fluke. Just a one off. But then it happened a second time. During the third time of these trespassers crossing their land a possible location was discovered by pure luck. Though many felt it was their gods guiding them to where these sacrilegious hooligans were illegally crossing their land. The fourth time it was confirmed. Scouts were then placed to ambush these outsiders. While their attacks ended in failure there was a crucial piece of information that was figured out. The Tusken Raiders were able to learn not only that these trespassers are crossing at the exact same spot, but at the exact same time every week. Though their numbers changed every week but the previous two facts remained the same. Rhax'ra had spent quite a few scouting missions tracking these outsiders to confirm it herself. Perhaps they had used this same tactic to get across the lands of other Tusken tribes and with their successes felt there is no need to change anything.
Well that will be their downfall.
Rhax'ra made sure her rifle as well as the rest of her gear is ready to go. Glancing over at her usual comrade. Of course, he has also connected everything together as well. Everyone in the tribe has. Sadly with those injured or killed during attempts to stop these spice runners previous crossings, their numbers have hit an all time low. The female Tusken isn't even sure if they will have any back up during this ambush. Looking around at the terrain she took careful notes. Where the perfect places for cover will be as well as where they needed to stop the transport vehicles before they reach the canyon. Yes the two of them can still carry out the attack in the canyon but it would be far better if the two of them somehow stopped them from entering the narrow passageway.
Glancing up at the sky she took note of where the twin suns are in the sky. The double stars are almost at the same position in the sky as they had been every time these trespassing outsiders crossed. Looking back out at the vast expanse that is nothing but sand she can see the faint hint of sand being kicked up into the air by fast moving vehicles.
Rhax'ra looked to her companion, "They are almost here." She told him pointing to the sand that is being kicked up in the distance. The two had been in their current positions for quite some time now making all the preparations for their ambush. Yes, there is no telling how everything will go down. For all they know it may still end in failure. But for sure the two Tusken Raiders will teach these outsiders a painful lesson as to why they shouldn't mess with Tuskens from the Kuar Tribe.
Carefully she slide down the boulder she was standing on to keep a look out to a shaded area that will keep her hidden from view. Placing her Gaderffi Stick propped against the boulder next to her. Crouching down she peeked from behind the boulder, watching the trail of kicked sand get closer and closer.
