<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#00bfff">"E.T.A. ten mics."</span>A light, very excited sounding voice said over the com. The voice belonged to Zacharia Balvor, but he preferred to be called 'Zeek'.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#ff0000">"Affirmitive. Zeek, bring up the ship schematics on my hud. Highlight my point of entry."</span><br/><br/>Inside Eshin's helmet, the hud flashed and up came the ships hull schematic. It was an Imperial freighter, an older design but still capable if maintained properly. He had to hand it to the imperials, if they knew how to build anything, it was a ship. But they always made them with at least one fatal flaw that made exploiting them very easy. The screen flashed, a green light blinking repeatedly on a spot on the outer hull.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#00bfff">"Got it. That's the point. Latching on and cutting in won't be easy. But they aren't going to be looking for someone cutting into the ship. They're sensors will think it's debris."</span><br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#ff0000">"Good. I'll take care of the rest. The Ion bomb is already armed. Once the switch goes, I'll have five minutes at the most before it's..."</span><br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#00bfff">"Boom...one fried ship engine and a disabled ship."</span><br/><br/>The Imperials had an illegal smuggling operation going on, one that involved the planet Dantooine. The planet wasn't of much importance, but it was a middle ground: a stopping point. His purpose with the ship was to infiltrate, hack any relevent information, and disable the ship. Eliminate any resisitance. Should be cake.<br/><br/>Eshin closed his eyes and focused. His abilities, as well as those of all of Echo Units', were none too similar to Jedi, except in one regard: They focused on concealment and detection. He could hide himself from force users, masking himself with the environment as well as being able to sense the life around him. It was just like his unit was named after: an echo in the force. Eshin concealed himself in his focused state, scanning the ship. One force user.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#ff0000"><i>'And right near the console I need to get to, wouldn't you know it?'</i></span><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#00bfff">"Eshin, You're right on top of it, E.T.A. thirty seconds."</span>And Eshin became a shadow to the ship...<br/><br/>******<br/><br/>It took less then a minute to breach the hull, the small, one man ship he was issued by the client had already burned up. Standard strategy: make the enemy believe the anomaly was a small astroid, and only caused miniscule damage to the hull. Eshin moved silently, short vibro blade drawn and held backhanded, at the ready. He weaved around corners, using the ships rooms and dimly lit corners to keep from being noticed. He kept a small schematic of the ship on the hud of his helmet, showing him his exact location. Eshin was like a ghost, and when he slipped into a room with two guards, he hesitated not for a second. Vibro blade swung, first guard fell, blood spraying from his neck and onto Eshin's armor. The Imperial trooper dropped to the ground with a thud. The other noticed noticed just as Eshin struck his windpipe with his free hand to muffle him, while at the same time driving the vibro blade into his back, severing his spinal column. Two dead. More to follow.<br/><br/>Eshin secured the doors, leaving a minor encription in them to make them unlockable unless someone was a hacker. Most of the crew were Imperial troops, not engineers. The bodies wouldn't be discovered.<br/><br/>He was almost at the room, and knew the dark Jedi beyond the door he was seeking would be much more than just a regular challenge. He could sense it. But he knew the sith thought of himself as better, thought of himself as something superior. So to him, Eshin didn't exist. And that was EXACTLY what Eshin wanted...<br/><br/>(Part One: Infilitration. Status: Complete)
