Chapter 21: Disabling Shields

The elevator lift opened to a stormtrooper probably thinking it would be empty. The trooper was surprised to see Han, Amilyn, Chewie, and Finn standing there. Han quickly took out his gun and shot the trooper. The trooper had no time to shot in his confusion and had been killed within seconds. "You know I could've just intimidated him with my powers," Amilyn told Han who obviously didn't care.

Chewie grabbed the body and put it in a corner of a wall where nobody cared to look. Han flung his coat off leaving it in the elevator lift. Amilyn and Finn peered warily around the first corridor.

"The less time spent here," Han added quickly, "the better luck we're going to have. In fact, the less time we are giving, the longer, the better luck."

"I know." Amilyn said checking the corridor outside the lift, Finn gestured to his right. Amilyn looked at Finn with her hands just above her lightsaber just in case. Whatever Finn saw....it just better help them get out of this mess.

"I got an idea about that." Finn turned to them. Han, Chewie, and Amilyn had no choice, but to follow through this idea of his. No matter if it had just come to him this second....it didn't matter as long as they got out alive. With Finn leading the way, they managed to be able to blend in with the whole base. They stopped when Finn halted at a particular stormtrooper coming their way.

This stormtrooper was quite tall, but by armor it seemed it was more special than others. The armor was silver chromium armor, probably salvaged to represent the past is now written. And past the troopers right shoulder was a small, but powerful looking silk black cape. "We're going to ask this one for information? If so Chewie do your thing," Amilyn asked Finn who nodded.

Chewie nodded curtly towards Amilyn and a confused Finn stared at her. "Do his thing?" He asked in a whisper. The trooper didn't see the furry wookie lunge his hand at her and pull her back with them. It surprised the trooper as she was being dragged into their corner of the room. His massive arms wrapped around the trooper, and the trooper struggled against the unbreakable grasp as Finn's gun was pointed at its mask.

An unsmiling Finn was trying to restrain himself from pulling the trigger. "Captain Phasma. Remember me?" He moved his blaster a bit away from the troopers face for the trooper to look at him.

"FN-2187. Yes, I remember you." The trooper speaking....it sounded like a woman.

Finn shook his head curtly. "Not anymore. My name is Finn. A real person name instead of just number and letters." Amilyn nodded, it was a much better name than having number to be said for it. Almost like trying to remember the password to the code.

Han spoke up. "We're just visiting. Finn's been giving us a quick tour of the place and it sure been....educational, but we haven't seen the planetary shield control room yet." Han broke out into a small, broad smile. "We'd really like to see the planetary shield control room."

"Now." Finn added in a menacingly tone of voice. He sounded good when he went into that voice....it made him seem.....at least intimidating and entertaining to watch do it. 

"You going to or are we going to put you in the garbage chute?" Amilyn asked Captain Phasma having her blaster pointed at the troopers head.

"Why would I show you anything?" Phasma sniffed derisively. Behind her Chewie let out a threatening groan meaning he could tighten his grip as tight as he wanted. Please don't kill her though thought Amilyn knowing it could lead to an accidental killing of Phasma. Phasma let a small gasp of air as Chewie tighten his grip a little tighter.

"Because if you don't," Han told her, "we'll eventually find it anyway. But you won't know that, then you'll be dead." Han nodded to Amilyn and Chewie. "Chewie here doesn't like people who threaten his friends. And Amilyn doesn't like people who are First Order scum looking for her force powers."

Phasma managed a slight shake of her head. "Even a wookie can't crush First Order armor, but the Jedi...." Phasma let out a gasp as Chewie tightened his grip around her a little harder. Her mask let out a small wheeze of cracking on it. Wookies can crush a lot a things, especially when it's stormtrooper armor.

"Well there's no way out of this one." Amilyn told Phasma. 

"Or you could simply cut her head off with your lightsabers. Or I could just shot her." Finn siad pushing the muzzle of the blaster in a little tighter. "She's well trained as much as I am. I know exactly where to put a shot to kill. Especially at this typical range."

"Okay. You don't just order me to cut someone's head off with a lightsaber! Jedi don't just cut off everybody's head! That's sith rage! Usually Jedi only did that to battle droids back in the Clone wars." Amilyn explained to Finn who's way of threatening wasn't....well...it didn't really match what Jedi's were supposed to do.

"What are you up to here?" Phasma demanded of Finn. "Are you with the filthy resistance scum like the Jedi? Independents?"

"Maybe we'll answer your questions. Later, as long as you lead us to the planetary shield room." Amilyn explained shoving Phasma from Chewie. Amilyn put her blaster close to Phasma temple most likely. "For now, you're our new tour guide. Lets go." 

They managed to avoid few technicians and troopers they encountered by ducking back into the alcoves of the base. There was a guard stationed in front of the door to the control room. "Hey. When are you off duty?" Finn asked the trooper.

"Not for another...." The trooper outside peered at the four behind Phasma. "Why are you out of uniform? Why..." Chewie  had blasted  the trooper, and dragged it into the control room after them. 

"I've had enough of friendly meetings with your friends, Finn." Amilyn said to Finn. "What was that you said about wookies and troopers?" The control room was small, so it didn't need any technicians inside. The mechanical devices and wires could function and monitor the,selves easily. There was hardly ever a probably with the system it seemed.

Phasma rubbed her left shoulder from the pressure of Chewie's tightness. Amilyn had her gun still the direction of Phasma's head. They presently held their weapons on her would meet Phasma's fate if she failed to hold up her end of the small deal. "Do it!" Finn ordered with his gun directly aimed at Phasma's chest.

Reluctantly, she worked the controls. Accompanied by a series of flipping and clicking of buttons being pressed by Phasma. The readout on the screen read out:

SHIELDS DISABLE INITATED

Finn muttered to both Han and Amilyn. "If this works, and if I remember correctly. When we disable them, we don't have time to find Rey." Amilyn held back her argument against Finn to reassure him of the dangers that would come within finding Rey.

"Don't worry kid, we won't leave without Rey." Han replied without shifting away from Phasma.

The captain turned to them. "I can't do this by myself. It requires two security codes to access the full systems and shut it down." 

"I've been in the business of dealing with liars and thieves my whole life. I know when someone's telling the truth....and when they're not." Han said putting his blaster at the back of Phasma's head.

"And I know when it's a lie. Because I'm a codebreaker, and by the looks of it.....it requires one access code," Amilyn spoke menacingly putting her blaster on the other side of Phasma's helmet. "So? What will it be...Captain?" Phasma reluctantly went back and pulled down a lever making the screen read:

SHIELDS DISABLED

"You can't be that stupid to think it'll be that easy. My troops will storm this block and kill you..."

"I disagree." Said Finn.

"Heard that before." Amilyn said showing Phasma the  lightsaber she was wielding . "And if I'm not mistaken you're going up against me....the chosen one from yet another prophecy. And I could easily dominate you within seconds."

"What do we do with her?" Finn asked Han and Amilyn. Han and Amilyn looked at each other, and they shared the same mischievous smirk. They knew exactly where to put the ignorant captain. 

"Is there a trash compactor? Garbage chute? I have pretty good idea about lots of these bases work." Finn threw Han a quizzical look. "Let's say I had hands on experience with against the empire those years ago."

Finn nodded. "Yeah, there is."

Amilyn took out her com-link and spoke into it, "Leia. The shields are down. I will repeat that. The shields are down." She heard small response from everyone. 

"You have permission to give Poe the order." Leia said, "Good job. Tell Poe to go to sublight. Attack, attack. On your call."

"Of course." Amilyn switched her com-link to Poe. "Hey Flyboy. Shields are down. Go to sublight. Attack, attack on your call." 

"Flyboy's my nickname now?" Poe asked through the comlink.

"It is when we are in battle. Now get black squadron down there." 

"Understood. Third in command." Poe said switching off his com-link. Amilyn put it back in her small satchel she had carried with her inside the base. She activated her orange lightsaber looking at the control panel.

"What are you doing?" Finn asked Amilyn.

"Well they'll try to restart the darn controls, so it's only right to destroy it." Amilyn swung her lightsaber causing sparks to fly from the controls. She swiped again and again until it was nothing, but fried wires and circuits. "Let's go, defeat some bastards and find Rey."
