Wraith sat in his sniper perch looking into the deep forest of Kashyyyk. "Listen Wraith I'm just saying, we should get some R&R go home and meet some nice Twilek Dancers." His partner was talking to him through the headsets built into their helmets. "You know that doesn't sound to bad. Maybe we'll even meet someone..... It's been to long since I've felt the warmth of a woman." Lightning struck nearby and shook the ground as he spoke. "Man why are we stuck with on the perimeter in one of the least dense places on Kashyyyk?" Raid, his partner, began complaining as rain began to fall. "It's better then being stuck in some foxhole in the thick of it. And the rain helps spot the enemy." He looked through the scope of his rifle tracking a slow moving blur through the thick grass. The Mandalorians had wisen up and started using cloaking technology to try to sneak past their snipers. He held his breath and fired his rifle dropping the Mando with a headshot. "d**n I heard that from here. How many does that make for you? Wraith smirked leaning back as smoke drifted from his barrel. "That's 7 today." Static began to stir in his helmet. "Pack up boys we're heading out.... The 501'st has finally pushed through the Mandalorian lines." The order was sent both to Wraith, and Raid over Tach-com. His head's up display blinked to the new rendezvous point for the staging area. "About time our boys made some traction, let's get out of here. Wraith slowly made his way up. He saw in this distance Raid doing the same. He waved to him as Raid did the same. "Wait there and we'll head there together."
Hours later Raid, and Wraith finally made it to the staging area. It was staged on a beach head with a far off island in the distance. Wraith leaned over to Raid and whispered. "The Mandos have retreated to that island.... It's their HQ for the whole planet. We're about to stage a massive assault." The men in the staging area hurried from place to place doing this and that. Raid looked all over his eyes unable to just focus on one thing. "Alot of noise here.... anything go on when we were on the perimeter?" Wraith stopped a nearby running private. "Soldiers whats going on?" The private looked dumbstruck. "Captain have you not heard?... A number of Jedi are going to join the war effort. A shuttle is coming with at least a dozen Jedi Knights. It's about to land" He gave off a smart salute and ran off. Wraith looked at a group of disgruntled soldiers nearby the medical tent. "This might not be a good thing." Raid turned to him with a quizzical look. "Why's that Wraith?" Wraith took off his helmet and pointed to the soldiers he was looking at. "Some of these men have been in this war for awhile.... They have been fighting for a long time with the Jedi just sitting in their temple doing nothing." He pointed to the group hovering around the landing pad. "Haven't you noticed that most of the people that are excited for the Jedi are young face recruits." Raid looked around the camp acknowledging what his friend was saying. "What're your thoughts on it?" Wraith rubbed his chin in thought. "I think the Jedi are to soft. They're a peace keepers, they won't have the sand to stand on a full frontal assault. Or I could be wrong and they could win the war for us." As he spoke the shuttle came into eye view. The began to cheer and blast into the air. "I hope I'm wrong." He walked closer to the landing pad to get a closer look.
