Mevenn looked up towards the sky as she heard a speeder head off in the opposite direction out of camp. She sighed as there was a boom above her head. Looking up she saw several objects streaking through the sky. She broke into a sprint towards the cruiser as she recognised the distinctive shape of the sheathipede-class transport shuttles. The Separatists had come again, and by the angle of their descent they were coming straight for this camp. They knew that there was an artefact here and they wanted it. A slight smile broke onto her face, not only did this mean that this artefact was something worth having if the Separatists wanted it. 

It gave her something to do, and after the long trip here she was just [i]itching[/i] to stretch her limbs.  As she ran over to the ramp she signalled for the clones to follow her aboard, running into the vessel she reached her hand as she passed the open door to her room and her helmet threw into her hand. Pulling it over her head she clicked on her comms as she sent out a message to Mach. "Mach just a heads up, we got Separatists inbound. We'll hold them off from the ship. You need to get into that temple and find out how to get the artefact quickly so we can get it out of here before more turn up." She activated the hologram in the common room of the ship looking at the collection of four shuttles. 

"From the size of the ships there'll probably be around thirty or forty Separatist units. We'll be able to keep the camp safe, it won't take me too long to deal with them. Mevenn, out."

She turned to Hotshot. "There's a shield generator in the bay. Take it to the camp and turn it on, it'll stop the Separatists from taking out our ship or any gun emplacements from the air. Ace, I want you in the highest vantage point you can find, call out targets and take shots when you're ready." she turned to Patcher. "I need you in reserve, the resistance fighters aren't trained and we may need a good medic. Stay on the ship and use the cannons as artillery, once Ace spots the landing site try and take out their shuttles. That'll take away their air superiority." 

Trio shouldered his rotary cannon while looking straight at her. "What about me General?"

"Co-ordinate with the resistance leaders, try and make them as effective a fighting force as you possibly can."

"and you?"

A smile crossed her face beneath her helmet. "Me? I'm going straight at them."

The Captain sped them towards a nearby hillock as the shuttles entered the atmosphere. Mach spoke up once he got the call, turning to Kresst as he did so. "General. We got Separatists Shuttles inbound, should we turn around?"

The Captain meanwhile just shook one of his gargantuan hands, practically making the whole speeder wobble. "I'm sure between the female and my people the Separatists will be dealt with soon enough. Don't you think we should focus on the matter at hand, Master Jedi?"
