Re: The Sith hits the fan...
As Rhijans throws himself flat, there is an explosion behind him, followed by a second, louder explosion, which actually manages to send the armoured Rebel sliding across the snow for a short distance. Where the troopers and their E-web had been positioned, guarding the entrance to the processing plant, there is now only a smoking crater and a large hole in the wall of the building.
Somewhere a siren starts...
Shard throws the thermal detonator, which lands and rolls into the midst of the stormtroopers. It doesn't stay in the midst for long, though, as they scatter to avoid the impending explosion. Shard, meanwhile has her own blaster in hand, and opens fire. Unfortunately the troopers are moving too quickly to get away from the thermal detonator, and she misses her target.
Distracted by Shard's yell, and the sudden appearance of the detonator, Juragga's aim is also off, and Haarmon's aim would also be off, if he had one.
Still, the three of them, along with the strange mechanical yelling of the Ubese, manage to keep the enemy confused enough to not shoot back...
Vekkis glares at Mark, though it is, of course, completely concealed by his helmet. "Oh, that was good. Remember when we talked about troopers running towards explosions? I think we're probably going to have more company."
Then the sound of two more explosions reaches him from somewhere outside, "Never mind, looks like there's fun to be had all round." He hefts his blaster, "Ready?" and then he steps around the corner...
