As Vader trudged through the desert, only one thing came to mind about his current surroundings. He did not like the sand. It was course, rough and irritating. Even though he wore a suit, he could almost feel the sand beneath his feet and all he wanted to do was get off this desert as soon as he could.

Eventually Vader had reached the city and upon looking around, realized that this place was indeed very different from the environment he was used to being around. Just then, the Sith Lord felt a presence in the Force that he had not felt a moment ago. However, the presence was not here in this city but somewhere else. Somehow another force use had ended up in this strange land as well but Vader couldn’t determine what much besides that. 

Vader again brought out the tokens he had received upon arriving here and lifted only three of them into the air.[color=9e0b0f]”Give me a squad of stormtroopers on my position.”[/color] Vader said and just like that, the three tokens disappeared from his grasp.

[color=blue]”Lord Vader!”[/color]

Vader turned to the source of the voice and saw a group of six stormtroopers already standing at attention. Their armour was marked in the familiar style of the 501st. The Sith Lord examined the troopers before he took a step forward towards the squad leader. Before Vader could speak however, they were all alerted when a flare was shot into the sky from the top of a tall building in the vicinity.

This, in combination with what he could sense earlier, confirmed that were were indeed others here. Vader didn’t want to  take any chances on what could very well be a threat so he kept his guard up.

[color=9e0b0f]”Prepare your squad, Commander. We are moving.”[/color] Vader ordered, beginning on his way towards the building that the flare was shot from.

The Commander gave the Sith Lord a nod of acknowledgement, turning around to the rest of the squad. [color=blue]”You heard him. Let’s get a move on!”[/color]

The first thing that was noticed when they reached the outside of the building was the vehicle that had been left there. Weapons at the ready, the troopers moved to enter the building with Vader following closely behind them. 

Once they entered, the troopers started on securing the first floor and making sure there were no sign of any immediate danger. After the first floor was clear and after looking around a bit, the troopers soon realized that the only way to reach the top of the building was to climb their way up the incredibly long flight of stairs.

[color=f7976a]”Oh, you’ve got to be kidding me!”[/color] one of the troopers exclaimed in annoyance upon seeing how far they would have to walk.

The trooper that had just complained was then whacked lightly on the arm by the one next to arm. [b]”What’s wrong? Are you scared of some stairs?”[/b] This little response garnered a few snickers from some of the other squad members.

[color=blue]”Both of you, be quiet. We’re moving out again so let’s go.”[/color] The commander ordered, prompting the others to quickly get back into formation and follow along. They had quite a long trip up these stairs to get through if they wanted to find who set off that flare.
