"Yes Scylla, you may be a part of the team that is assembled."
Luke heads to his ship and retrieves Artoo. Using the Force, he lowers Artoo to the ground. He takes him to Cait's ship and waits for Cait to arrive and unlock her ship. With Cait's computer, Artoo should be able to locate the lava planet that has a Mensix Mining facility.

Cait looks at Scylla when she asks to be part of the Strike team and nods. She smiles.
I expected you to ask that. If Luke doesn't mind then I have no objections. In fact I think you need to be on it more than anyone else except maybe Luke. Tristan will need you more than any of us. Your first priority will be to get Tristan and get him to safety. The rest of us will back you and Luke up.
She looks at Luke for confirmation then back at Scylla when she answers Cait's question about the ship. Cait shakes her head but smiles.
No, I don't mind. I thought that might be your answer. And I understand completely. Also if you take your ship then you can leave when you have rescued Tristan. Though you would be welcome to return with us if you wanted to do so.
Cait realizing she is still holding Tristan's bracelet hands it back to Scylla.
You might want this back.
To Luke:
I will meet you at my ship.
She then makes her way back to her ship. She opens the hatch and lowers the ramp. When Luke arrives she pokes out her head and calls down to him.
In here Luke. I have it all set up for Artoo to get started.
After she shows him where things are she says.
I'm going to change if we are going to be fighting I need to wear something more practical.
She then walks into her bedroom to change clothes and get her weapons.
Geenine beeps a flirtatous greeting to Artoo. She really likes him. (Hi handsome let's get to finding this place for them.)

"Alright Cait," says Luke as he enters the ship. Artoo follows Luke up the ramp, and twitters nervously to Geenine. Artoo has never thought about anything but the mission and loyalty. Geenine's advances make him uncomfortable as he doesn't know what to do.
He beeps and whirls as if to say, "Lets get down to business." He goes over and plugs into the computer jack.
"Artoo and Geenine, we are looking for a planet that has lava flows and a lava fall. There is also a Mensix Mining Facility there. We need all possibles."
The droids begin to sift through the information.

Geenine gives a soothing whistle as if to say it's okay I'm just being friendly no need to be nervous. She beeps an acknowledgment of Luke's instructions. She beeps to Artoo I will cross reference Mensix Mining Facilities with any known lava productions. She sets to work.
Cait walks into her bedroom and changes into her lightweight but very strong silvery chain mail armor made especially for her by her brother Colin. She slips on a light gray pair of pants, leaf green tunic and a white blouse over her armor hiding it from sight. She pulls on a pair gray knee-high boots. She braids her hair into a fighter's braid it pins up out of the way. She puts on a light gray-green hooded cloak.
She goes to her jewelry box. She gets out a leaf-shaped cloak pin and attaches it to her cloak. She gets out her rings and bracelet. She takes out the special jeweled helmet and puts it on. She concentrates and it disappears from sight. She slips her metal gauntlets over her hands as they warm to her skin they blend with her skin hiding what is under them from sight. She buckles her healer's belt around her waist. She checks and makes sure all she needs is on it. She attaches her lightsaber to it. She slips her sword into its sheath. She picks up her cortosis dagger and slides it into her left boot. She is now ready. She walks back to where the droids are.
I'm ready. Luke, do you want to contact Yavin IV? You can use the comm in the cockpit. Dot2 can you show where the direct link is.

After a while, Artoo beeps and whirls excitedly. Luke goes over to the console and checks the readout. Mustafar. "They are holding the child on Mustafar," says Luke. "Dot2, could you show me the link to Yavin IV?"
The connection is made, and Luke sends off his message.
"Gert, Pappy, and Nick,
The child is being held on Mustafar. We will rendezvous on the planet at 1800 hours Monday. Please let me know if you have any questions. May the Force be with you.
Luke"
Luke severs the connection. "Cait, Artoo and I are going to go to our Stealth X and make our way to Mustafar."

Luke and Artoo leave Cait's ship and make their way back to the Stealth X. They run preflight checks and prepare for takeoff.

Scylla, feeling that it is almost time for her to be able to see her son, walks over to the shuttle, where the pilot officer was standing by.
"What did the Jedi want?" the pilot asked her, as he sat down behind the controls.
Scylla then looked at him and shook her head.
"Nothing that you need to worry yourself with. So don't worry, and do your job. We are to follow the other two..."
The pilot then nodded to her as he obeyed, and the shuttle then lifted off for orbit, where it will wait for the two Jedi.

Geenine beeps in confirmation. She disengages from computer terminal and trundles off to the cockpit to get the ship ready for take off.
Dot2 translates:
Geenine says she confirms the parameters match is 99.9999 %
Dot2 to Luke: Right away Master Skywalker. As she gives him the link.
Cait to Luke: Of course! That is why the Lava Falls looked so familiar they are quite famous.They are the largest in the galaxy. And it makes sense Palatine had a Sith base there at one time. So it would naturally attract more Siths.
Alright Luke, I will meet you in orbit and follow you to Mustafar.
Cait sits down in the pilot's seat as Geenine does her checks. When Luke leaves Cait raises the ramp and closes the hatch then contacts Scylla to give her the coordinates.
Scylla, you there? We have the location. I'm sending you the coordinates now. Luke has called for some reinforcements and is on his way now. We will all rendezvous at 1800 hours Monday in orbit around Mustafar. I will see you there. May The Force Be With You.
When Geenine finishes her pre-flight checks and powers up the ship. When it is ready Cait gently pulls back on the controls and lifts off. She barely misses some trees but makes it into the sky without any incident. The Elen-tari ascends into orbit.
