Prelude: Forced Labor
She looks at her blaster, "Alright." Then tucks it down her pants behind her back.
You take off down the hall, at each junction you pause, look, and then move when the way is clear. Twice you stop and wait for a Stormtrooper patrol to pass by. They are pairs of two making a sweep through the compound. Little by little you get closer and closer to the hangar.
Then you come to a T junction from the northeast hall, the hangar is to the south, but you are forced to stop. Up ahead at the hallway split are four Stormtroopers just standing there on guard. Between you and them there isn't any real cover, and there is only the way way in to the ship hanger, and that's through them -- somehow.

Not thinking they've been spotted by the four Stormtroopers, "Hold up a bit." Rubbing his face, "I'm sure this is the only way to the hanger." Smiling, "As we approach I'll take suggestions as to why we need to be in the hanger." Glaring at Navine, "And do keep that blaster concealed will you?" He steps out into the corridor and proceeds towards the four troopers, all the while hoping the other two have joined him.
Number Two: "You are number six."
Number Six: "I am not a number, I am a free man!"
Number Two: "Muh ha ha ha ha!"

The Stormtroopers spot Gavin as he turns the corner and starts walking toward them.
Through that voice modulated helmet one of them calls out, "You there, stop. What are you doing here? This area has been placed off limits."

Gavin takes several more steps in order to close the gap, then with a look of surprise stops. Looking behind himself both left and right, "Oh, me? Apologies." Before answering, he attempts to withdraw some information from the troopers mind.

Gavin strides forward faking his surprise and looking around. "Who me?" Reaching out with the Force he attempts to get a read on these Stormtroopers, but there isn't much there for him to sense.
"Yes you, who else?" The Stormtrooper levels his blaster at Gavin, "This area is off limits to everyone right now. You should turn around and move on."

K5 steps around the corner. "I am escorting this individual outside through the far hanger. He had gotten lost." The Imperial KX-Series droid stands there, attempting to impersonate a non-modified Imperial droid.

The Stormtrooper pauses, uncertain about the droid. "What's your designation droid? Who ordered this?" The other three troopers have started to pay a bit more attention now to what's going on.
Around the corner, against suggestion, Navine has her back pressed to the wall, her blaster in hand, ready to lean out and blow these Imperial Scum away, but she holds off for now.

Gavin turns his palms up and gives an expression to the troopers as if to say getting lost happens. If K5's tactic does somehow work, he wonders what to do about Navine who to this point is still unseen.

"K5-555," the droid says, looking idly at the Stormtroopers. "Error retrieving logs, partial recovery, designation Captain, obey routine triggered."
"I am to escort him this way."

Gavin looks back at K5 and whispers, "What about the girl?"
