Late Night Recon (OPEN) [Clone Wars]

[Ahsoka Tano]

Ahsoka nodded. "Sparky and I then." She picked up two transmitters and handed one to Sparky. "Keep someone on these at all times and record the audio. As long as you follow my orders, if something goes wrong you have the proof that you were following Jedi orders."

Ahsoka glanced at the map. By shutting down the trackers she had significantly lowered the chances of recovering her Master and the clones. There was no way for them to contact the main group and no way the clones could contact him. The safety of the many and the completion of the mission was her responsibility, her commitment to her master would have to be secondary. However, they did needed to move quickly if there was to be any chance of recovery.

"Now if we stay out of contact for longer than 30 minuets I want you to deactivate our transmitters and trackers. If this occurs Sparky and I will try and get to meet up with you on the move. If you have to change courses do so. The safety of the group and the mission are your two main objectives. Anything else is secondary and needs to be treated as such."

Ahsoka packed her bag as she spoke. "Get a single day's rations from the supply tent." Ahsoka spoke to one of the nearby clones, who saluted and exited the tent." The Jedi pulled out Master Koons bag and removed some credits. She wasn't sure if they'd use them, but they could be useful for bartering.

"Now unless the circumstances dire, do not contact either on of use once we've gone outside of the three mile safe zone. Wait until we contact you." Ahsoka finished packing her supplies and hoisted the bag on her back.

"Now does anyone have anything to say?" Ahsoka looked around the tent. She wasn't one to bark orders and not allow the clones to speak, she was a Jedi, but she still didn't have the intense training and knowledge that the clones did. If they had an opinion on something, she wanted to hear it. It didn't mean she'd act upon their opinion every time, but she almost always gained additional perspective.

Sparky accepted the transmitter with a small nod. However, if something were to go wrong he'd be the one doing all he can to protect the commander and the mission; there shouldn't be a need for covering tracks, but the commander gave an order and so he would follow it.
30 minute sitreps; that was a good timing. It allowed for accurate travel time, and there may be something to report by then. Sparky was beginning to get the feeling it'd be very quiet tonight... until they found the General at least. With a few blinks, his made a timer in his HUD for half a cycle, ready to start upon their departure.

He was quiet the entire duration of the delegation of orders; she was definitely going full commander mode now. There were times when the higher ranks were calm and sociable just like any clone... until the time came to take initiative. Their attitude drastically changed as they entered the 'zone'.
Commande Tano just got determined looks around the tent as she finished. They had their orders, and they were set to go the moment she decided to set it off. If there was a problem, they wouldn't say it, but they felt nothing wrong with the chosen path of action.

It was Sparky who approached. "We're set Commander." He lowered onto one knee and slipped the pack off his back. "Although I have something for you, sir." Spinning it around, he plucked the watch like device he had grabbed at the last minute. Securing his pack and returning it on his back, Sparky turned off the hologram projector and removed the chip Shredds had inserted. He slid it in a chip reader on the watch.
He offered it to the Commander.
"It's something us scouts use in the field. It sits on your wrist, and displays a small map much of the style Shredds had displayed. But in this case it is a small, flat screen. When you hit this button on the side, it creates a marker and sends the coordinates to all members of the team that are linked with this device." He motioned to the similar watch device secured on his left wrist. "This is what creates the path like patterns. The screen has rings on it, showing differences in elevation as well as major landmarks like rivers and lakes."

He backed up a step and resumed the position of attention, grinning from ear to ear. "Ready when you are Commander."
