Halley's Comm. Officer had the order to send an encrypted message to Hammond asking him to confirm the initial treaty. After just fifteen minutes, the new leader of the Galactic Empire responded with just one word:
"Yes."
The officer approached Halley, and told him of the approved treaty. Halley nodded, and motioned to Randar "An Assault Transport escort is coming down as we speak. There will be room for everyone on the shuttles, but the Empire is calling it an ambush by the Republic. We will need to stage a fight, and the more firepower there is involved, the better. It would be good if you could leave some of your weaponry here, and I'll give orders to my men to leave behind some of our own bloody armour pieces."

"Of course, I'll prepare my men now" Captain Randar spoke highly before spinning on his feet and turning to his soldiers. They were standing ready for orders, although they showed none of the usual ceremonial saluting. "Shoot any animal you can see in the area, we will use their blood to mark the battle. For those of you already wounded, open up the wounds to let some real blood out. I need five of you to take off their armour spill the blood of our wounded across the leg and chest plates". His orders were acknowledged with the only visible response being action. Immediately five of the soldiers began to strip themselves of their armour, leaving only combat suits underneath with faded Republic logos. Jalua sat down on a fallen log and began to take a drink of some warm rathomir juice (OOC: Made that up). While the soldiers did their orders efficiently and with little sound, Jalua sat back and watched the action continue around her. It seemed that once she got back to her father, things would be much different.
OOC: I'll let you post about the transport coming down now.

Captain Halley rounded up his men and stared at the glare of the bright sun. It then hid behind a large assault transport which slowly landed on the jungle floor.
Ready Solast? Time to go. Contact Supreme Commander Hammond, officer.
Halley climbed onto the transport, sent one of his men to the nearby turret and then handed a hand out for Jalua.

Jalua grabbed his hand and climbed aboard the transport. The rest of the soldiers began to get onboard and help each other on. "Next stop?" Jalua asked once the last man was on board, wondering where exactly the transport would head after leaving the orbit of the planet.

"We're heading to Naboo, we've just recently got informed of a major battle in its orbit. But, we must stop for Supreme Commander Hammond on the way."
Captain Halley, with his men and Jalua's lifted up into the high canopies of the enormous jungle trees. A few kilometers to the south of their position, the Supreme Commander waited anxioulsy with a few more troops on his side.
"No success Captain Halley. We'll have to contact Mandalore on another moment. Ready for Naboo are we?"
After noticing Jalua to the far right side of the transport, he asked:
"And who is this beautiful young woman?"

Jalua smiled and lifted herself from her seat to face the Supreme Commander. "I am Princess Solast of the Imperial Coalition, it's a pleasure to meet you Supreme Commander Hammond". With a nod of her head, she showed appreciation and respect to this highly capable commander.

Oh the Imperial Coalition eh? Guess we'll be seeing your friends in a little time.
The assault transport lifted up into the planet's high skies and when reaching the orbit, darted into hyperspace, towards the beautiful horizons which reside in Naboo.
