Following them eventually lead her to the bridge, where an Imperial officer was speaking with someone she couldn't see, due to the small number of officers surrounding him.
"...we need to prepare for any type of attack by these unidentifiable people." A feminine voice had told the officers.
"Lieutenant-Commander, last time I checked, we don't know the capabilities of every single life form on this planet. I'd rather wait until we have our droids on the ground before we do anything rash." He says.
Again, no one seemed to notice Athena entering the bridge.

She hid for a split second, the disguise taking on the form of one of the people working on the bridge. She needed to get close. Given her entire form being hidden, she could easily pull a weapon quite seriously from thin air, although it was simply hidden under the illusion.
-
She managed to squeeze her way through the various officers, until she reached near the front of the gathering of officers. Right in front of the group, a hologram of a [url=https://img00.deviantart.net/2d8d/i/2017/013/e/e/star_wars_imperial_officer___commission_by_xelandra-dava02q.jpglink]woman, seemingly in an officer's uniform.[/url] talking to all of them. This was most likely the leader of the Imperial groups, contacting them from some unknown location. "You know what to do, officers. Find out the defenses of this planet, and report back to me once that's done. We're saving most of our defenses, so expect no backup until otherwise noted. Kiyala, out." She had said, disappearing. The officers all stared at an old man in a white officer suit, who looked the windows of the bridge, the rising sun glaring back at him.
-
She grinned to herself, her face being angular yet had an odd grace to it. She could try and plant a bug in the system, but it might draw attention.
-
The officers scattered, leaving just her and a few other officers with her, as the Imperial white officer turned around. “I need you, and Captain Guren to watch the bridge while I resign to my quarters. I must be well-rested for when Kiyala gives the word to attack or invade somewhere. She does have the most powerful of our weapons waiting for activation.” The officer tells Athena and the officer next to her, leaving the bridge. This left Athena in a room with an officer, a couple Stormtroopers guarding the bridge, and a lot of technical officers.
-
The irony was that he would be let down, since Athena wasn't even an official officer. Rolling her neck, she glanced around, needing a way off the bridge.
-
The Stormtroopers were guarding at the door; maybe she could use the classic excuse of a bathroom break. Or she could simply get a drink for one of the officers. "Hey; I'm real thirsty; too lazy to exactly leave here; mind doing it for me?" The other officer asked Athena.
-
She nodded then, taking the opportunity to escape the ship.
-
She would've went through the corridors, some Stormtroopers making their way to the hangar. The soldiers seemed unaware of the officer's presence...or she could make her way back where she came.
-
She cloaked as a stormtrooper again then, making her way to the hangars.
-
Within the hangars, hundreds of their TIE fighters were hung up on walls, almost akin to decorations. Some Stormtroopers went in the cockpit, along with other [url=https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/clonetrooperpedia/images/d/d5/Tie-fighter-pilot.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20120520012551]pilot troopers[/url].
-
Knowing she would need to be disguised as a pilot to even think of getting to the ships, she found a good spot to hide again, and recloaked as a pilot trooper.
-
The group of Stormtroopers seemed to not notice it, allowing her to choose out of a variety of TIE Fighters and Interceptors.
-
She went for an interceptor, the ship seemed overall faster and better for an escape.
-
Going in, it almost felt like the small cockpit she was in was roomy. Now...did she know how to drive the Interceptor, would be the question.
-
Considering she knew how to pilot a number of space craft, they all followed a similar design, all it would take is finding what was what.
-
Well...the controls looked easy enough to handle, along with many other things that seemed to be different things; something for tracking ships, a couple buttons for maneuverability. And a button used to get her off the wall of ships she was currently on.
-
Knowing the big button keeping her on the wall would be bad to press at the moment, she needed to get the ship running first.
-
There were a lot of switches that were here, on top of the window; that could’ve lead to powering up the ship.
-
Reaching up, she flicked it in the hopes it did.
-
Everything seemed to turn on, as a couple Stormtroopers walked up to the Interceptor. "BC-2314, we already have the guard out there in case; we don't need anymore fighters out there." The Stormtrooper had said.
-
She growled then, not knowing what to do now.
-
...there was always the idea of jetting it out of there.
