Luke leaves as soon as Pappy gives the plan. He makes it his business to have everything ready to go. As Luke heads makes his way through the maze of corridors he comms Artoo. "Artoo, start pre-flight and have everything ready for take off when I get there. Make sure the other ships are prepped also. Everybody is leaving and leaving now." Artoo beeps and twits an affirmative. He begins to contact the other astromech droids on the other ships. Soon all ships are ready to go.
Luke gets to the hanger bay and reaches out with the Force to make sure there are no Sith in the vicinity. He soon realizes there is no one about, but feels the others making their way toward him. He is ready to give whatever aid is needed now that the hanger is secure and the ships are ready.

"I think I will hitch a ride with Cait, if it's alright with you, Gert. I haven't seen my son in nearly a month and I'm afraid he'll think I've abandoned him. So, yes I will pilot if you'd like me to, Cait."
Mara takes off running in the direction of the hangar, turning her head to speak to the others as she runs. "You really think we should take the time for the Wall of Light? There's no hope for this place, so I say we run like hell for our ships and blast out of here."

Calling out "Ladies!!!! There are alternatives to leaving." seeing as they are all safely far enough away from the wall he presses a button and the detonator blows. Where there was once a wall there is now a hole. He walks through and 30 seconds later he runs back out and another explosion rocks the hallway...He smiles "Nothing the proper use of explosives can't fix.....two more to go then we will be outside. we can run up the side and then the ships will be in front of us about two hundred yards away." He runs back in through the openings and in short order there are two more bangs. He walks out shaking his head covered in dust....it clings to him and he smiles "Ladies shall we take our leave" and bows waiting for them to follow.

While the Jedi are making their escape by blasting holes in the wall, the whole facility is beginning to shake rather violently at this point; the two remaining Sith Masters are intent on destroying these Jedi to show as a sign to their power. They continue to focus on the deepest and darkest nature of the dark side and slowly but surly altering the space around them... especially between them. Trickles of red lightning begins to swirl over and out from their bodies as the ferocity of the shaking increases around them. The Masters continue to focus as the assassins around them scatter and run at the onset of their Masters' light show.
Suddenly the space between the two masters begins to flow inward with the lighting absorbing into the center space between them. Slowly a black hole of sorts begins to form and it becomes clear what their plan is; they are beginning to produce a form Force storm inside the facility to bring it down. The more they feed on the dark side the closer they get to Sith battle coordination through a drawing of deep meditation. They sought to destroy not only themselves, the Jedi and the facility but the the whole region included.

"Husband, you are one crazy barv." she shakes her head and turns the boy away so he doesn't get a good look at Pappy. Her husband is spattered with blood and assorted other unidentifiable fluids and substances. "It's an option Mara if we get cornered or they finally get reorganized. Frankly, they didn't seem to plan very well or they just weren't expecting the cavalry. They should have been." she jogs to keep up with her seemingly insane husband. "I'm aware of the consequences of using the wall of light Cait. But this place is already an inferno to begin with. A bit of extra lava flow isn't going to be terribly noticeable to the locals."
Tristan squirms in her arms. "Momma?" he asks plaintively. "Soon kiddo."

Cait now senses that Luke also has left the building and has reached his ship. What miners that had been at the facility had already left when the shooting first started and are all safely off of Mustafar.
Luke is already at his ship and is getting ready to leave. I suggest we do the same. Yes, Mara I would. Things are going to get a little hairy real soon and your expertise in that area will be needed. And I will be a little too busy trying to stop those Sith Masters. That reminds me. *She tosses Mara the access control for the ship.* You will need this to get in the ship. Go ahead get on board there is something I need to do first.
Cait laughs when Pappy blows a hole in the side of the building. Pappy you are crazy you know that?
To Gert. So be it then. I will be the focus since I have done this before and know what I'm doing. Any objections? Good. Let's get to our ships and get this thing done.
She starts to answer Mara's question whether they should even do the Wall of light when she senses through the Force what the Masters are attempting to do. Those Sith Idiots! You know what they are trying to do? They are trying to create a black hole.Yes, Mara we will "have" to do it otherwise if they succeed they will destroy not only this planet but the whole system.
She then runs back around the corner looking for Glow and spots her and her pilot trying to dodge flying debris. She Force pushes the debris out their way and yells : SCYLLA! This way quick!
Glow and the pilot see her and sprint toward the group. Cait turns and runs back toward the hole. We need to get out of here like yesterday!
Glow sees Tristan and starts crying. Tristan! Oh, Tristan you are safe. She reaches for her son as she runs for her ship, her pilot is beside her.
Cait runs through the hole for the ship and sprints aboard. She sits down in the co-pilot's seat and straps in. Okay Mara get us out of here! And whatever you do don't stop for anything. This place is going get much hotter shortly.
She then closes her eyes and concentrates. She draws upon the Light of the Force. She searches through the Force for the dark presence of the Masters. She begins to create a Wall of Force Light in her mind seeing it surrounding them. She is trying to cut them off from being able to use the Force, confining their dark energy behind the Force Wall of Light. She draws on the energy of Mustafar feeding its energy into the Wall. She opens herself up to the others allowing them to feed their energy also into the wall she is creating. She is oblivious to all that is going around her on the ship. She is totally focused on what she is doing.

Luke gets on his comm, "Whatever we are going to do, we need to do it now. Lets all direct our energies to the Maelstrom of dark energy, and pour everything we have into it. Whether it is Force Harmony, Force Light, or Wall of Light, it needs to be done yesterday." Luke centers himself and pours everything he has into Cait's wall.

"With pleasure," Mara says as she catches Cait's ship control, then sprints to the hangar and boards Cait's medical ship. She is nearly finished with the quick-start procedures when Cait also boards the ship and straps into the co-pilot seat.
Powering up the repulsors, Mara lifts the medical shuttle off the ground and kicks in the sublight engines. The shuttle begins its slow ascent to orbit. "The ship's as slow as a Hutt," mutters Mara quietly so Cait could not hear. She glances at Cait out of the corner of her eye, noticing the other woman's focus and strain. Mara stretches out with the Force to lend Cait her strength.
Being a medical shuttle, the ship was built for safety, not speed, but it eventually makes orbit where Mara lets it hover above the planet while Cait finishes her task. Mara continues to lend Cait strength through the Force.

Nick nods his head and begins to focus into the Force as he watches the others board their ships. He combines his power with the power of the others. He becomes so focused he doesn't sense the lithe figure slipping underneath his ship and attaching a small but powerful device onto the ship's hull.
The figure then runs away from the ship and slips back into the shadows.
He then engages the ships engines and the ship lifts into a hover and begins to move away from the facility and head up into the Orbit following Cait's ship.

Mommy! Tristan cries and jumps from Gert's arms into his mother's arms. Tristan, my sweet boy! To the Jedi: Thank you, Thank you for saving my son. Glow catches and holds him tightly then she runs onto her ship. She is crying happy tears that he is safe and with her once more.
Her pilot has already begun the pre-flight checks in order to take off. Glow straps herself and Tristan in to get ready for take-off. When he finishes his checks the pilot lifts off the planet and heads into orbit.
Cait senses when Luke adds his strong presence, will and energy into the Force wall. She feels Mara add her strength into the mix. She then senses Nick's comforting presence as his energy joins with the others. The Force energy from them flows into her and she feels it then flow from her into the Wall as it grows and strengthens.
She feels the Wall begin to pulse and grow in strength. It now surrounds the two Sith Masters. She feeds more energy into the Wall. Cait as she sits there she is now surrounded by a bright halo of light. The Wall begins to glow in response to the Force energy being poured into it. It grows brighter and brighter. She feels the first signs of panic from Sith Masters as they feel the darkside energy being cut off.

As Luke is pouring everything he has into the Wall of Light, he climbs the ladder of his Stealth X and settles into his cockpit. He eases the ship out of the hanger and gets clear of all the buildings. He stays close to be able to add to the Wall of Light. Once that is completed, he will head for orbit. From there he will make the jump to lightspeed.

As he runs to the Rose....Gert close behind he reaches out through the force and senses everyone is clear of the building.....he does a quick calculation and pulls out his comlink "Bucket head two minutes from the end of transmission.....bring the pain on this signal......break....break....break." and he chucks the comlink up on the roof of the facility. He reaches the Rose and enters the code for the security. Gert races past him up the ramp and heads for the cockpit. He climbs the ramp and raises it and heads forward ticking off the time till the Mando's make their run. As he sits in the co-pilots seat he coms the other Jedi "Get clear everyone this place is going to be real hot real quick" and sits back waiting for Gert to lift off.

She slaps at the controls and gets her bird into the air. Sensing Cait has started using wall of light and Luke join in her efforts she closes her eyes as her fingers skim the controls.
"Pap, take the controls." she says very softly, her voice sounding very very far away as she opens herself completely to the Force and starts guiding and directing Cait's efforts to the mining facility specifically. The building is visibly shuddering and a cloud of dust is shimmering up and around it as it trembles with the Sith's efforts to suck the entire system into a black hole. They aren't quite strong enough to do that, she can sense it, but they were strong enough to make the local star unstable which would be bad enough.
She tightens her control on guiding Cait and Luke and focuses it on the location of the Sith masters, surrounding them with a white wall of force light. Cutting them off from their access to the Force.

He takes the controls and takes a bearing....and heads upwards towards orbit. As he does he sees the first wave of ships on the way in for their bombing run...he throws the ship left and right several times and passes close by and throws a salute at the Mando flying the ship. He rolls up on his starboard side and orbits from a safe distance as to not interfere with the other waves inbound and waits for them to bring the pain.
