"I guess we could hole up in the Phantom?"

"Judging by the torn-up shuttle in there, locking ourselves in the Phantom won't protect us," Hera crossed her arms, Sabine placing her hand on her chin. "Could get grim."

"Well, I'll take grim now."

The Mandalorian walked away, Hera following the girl shortly after. The teenager continued to walk until she reached a red canister, placing her hands on her knees as she smiled at the inanimate object.

"Thought I recognised these markings."

She then pressed a few buttons, the canister powering up once she did, Hera walking towards her.

"Allow me to introduce you to one of my oldest and most explosive friends; Rhydonium."

"It's good to have friends," Hera placed a hand on her hip, looking at the younger female with a slight smile. "So what's your plan?"

"Since we don't know how many of those creatures are in there, we can set up groups of canisters and create explosions that take them out a wave at a time."

"How will you get close enough to the creatures to the rhydonium to be effective?" Hera questioned, Sabine, thinking while continuously staring at the rhydonium.

"We're gonna need bait."

"Where do we get that?"

"We don't get it," Sabine turned to the twi'lek. "We are it."

The two then began rolling large cans of rhydonium, positioning them in ways where it would work in their favour, the asteroid drawing nearer and nearer as it threatened to block out the sun.

Soon, they had set up all the canisters, the sky drawing dark as the creatures in the cave continued to snarl.

"Wave one, move," Hera commanded, the two running forwards, soon using a canister to guard themselves.

The monster soon lurched at the two members, Hera shooting a canister as it exploded, the creature flying forwards, unconscious as Hera gasped, more of them coming out of the abandoned base.

"Wow!" Sabine's eyes were widened. "A lot of 'em!"

"Steady now," Hera whispered. "Follow the plan."

The two continued to fire, the two running close to the Phantom.
