peeking out towards the balcony trying to get a good view of where the enemy are at

Perception: (1d20+13)[29]

You don't really need to look very hard, they're on the adjacent building, two droideka destroyer droids, one standing on the lip of the balcony and firing down into the street, and the other firing towards the staircase.

Cora with her readied grenade... as she runs past coralej Cover Me, Flying out across the balcony jumping across to the balcony with the destroyers, tumbling past through the opposing window and finding as much cover as possible.

[Thundercracker]

The droideka on the ledge slides towards the lip but keeps its footing. Cora manages to clear the gap between the buildings, then leaps to her feet and dives through the window before the droid can react.

Once inside she realizes that perhaps this was not the best idea. The cover she expected to find doesn't help very much as the wall has been hit with so many blaster bolts it's about to collapse.

She is also now caught in the crossfire between the 501st coming up the steps and the droideka on the balcony. Luckily for her, the three clones in your squad who made it up to the balcony fall prone and open fire on the droideka by the window.

Droideka attack on clones:
attempts to return fire on two of the clones (autofire) (1d20+7)[17]
damage: (3d8)[15]

The clones lay into the droideka, damaging its shields and peppering its armor. It returns fire, but because they are prone, most of the blaster bolts go over their head, though they do take some superficial impacts on their armor.

Spoiler

2 clones are hit for 8 each. The droideka's shields are down to 10SR, and it has taken 18 damage

Two clones from the 501st pop up from the stairwell to shoot at the droideka, but check their fire upon seeing Cora.
"Hold fire! Friendly in the bedroom!" one of them yells.

The droideka on the edge of the balcony continues firing at the sled, and the Jedi continues to defend it; it's a standoff.

[Thunder999]

Annoyed that the Droideka seemed unbothered by his last attack, must be heavier than he thought, Coralej once more fills the air with spark and flame, the obscure trick a definite favourite of his, hopefully it'll have a harder time ignoring that.

The droideka by the window shudders as its circuits ignite, and flames shoot out from beneath its armor. Then the grenade goes off, well placed enough to damage both droids, and the one by the window loses power and shuts down. The other droideka, upon being flanked on two sides, drops its shield and turns into a giant rolling metal wheel, and rolls off the building to take off down the street.

[samduke]

the blast from the grenade exploding so close by, it deadened the sound of the droid rolling off the building. When looking all Cora sees is the smoldering remains and then proceeds to descend the stairs back to the ground and walks back to the vehicle with members of the 501st.

[Thunder999]

Coralej also heads for the stairs down, time to regroup with the Jedi and remaining clones.

[Thundercracker]

You regroup down at the sled.

"Won't be long before more clankers show up, we'd better get a move on," Jessie says, "anyone unable to walk? No? Good, this way."

The 501st moves with precision, two squads leapfrogging each other as they stick to the shadows next to buildings, covering the sled as it hovers along. You come to a T-junction.

"Shield generator is this way," Jessie says.

"The detention center is that way," Sadaki replies, pointing to a nearly perpendicular street, "this is where we part ways."

"Right. Glad to have you with us as long as you were, hope you find what you're looking for," Jessie says.
"May the Force be with you," Sadaki replies, and he leads you off to the right while Jessie and the 501st continue on.

"Our best play right now is stealth," Sadaki says, "we're better off getting to the detention center undetected. If they go on high alert, it'll be harder to get in and find Dr. Kradu."

He takes point towards the detention center, staying about 40-50' ahead of you, but as you pass a side street, you spot a Separatist probe droid headed the opposite direction. If it continues on its path, it will likely intercept the 501st clones on their way to the shield generator.

You only have moments to make a decision on what to do...

Jessie responds, though there must be heavy jamming because his voice is barely discernible.

[Thundercracker]

The droid strains against the unseen force crushing it, but it is unable to escape. As soon as the blaster bolt fires though, even though it is nowhere near the droid, it explodes in a fireball and falls to the ground. Sadaki sprints back to the alley entrance.

"What was that?" the Jedi whispers, "we're trying to avoid alerting the Separatists where we are."

[Thunder999]

"That was a Probe Droid, heading for the other group, someone had to stop it."

"That was a Probe Droid, heading for the other group, someone had to stop it."

“Did it spot you?” Sadaki asked.

It's not clear whether it spotted you or not.

You could try to make a roll / check (your choice) to see if you can recall or deduce whether it did or not, or you could always wing it, or tell the truth (that you're not sure).

Cora
No idea if it did or not, but we should get moving just in case.

"It was turning, but I'm pretty sure it exploded before any cameras faced our way."

[Thundercracker]

Your conversation is cut short by the sound of metal grinding against duracrete.
"Clankers incoming!" one of the clones shouts, and they all turn and raise their blaster rifles.

A lone droideka destroyer rolls around a corner and unfolds about 150' away, between you and the detention center.
A shield bubble pops into place, protecting it as it prepares to fire.

It is 30 squares away, point blank range for its laser cannons. The clones are about 10' away from you, between you and it.

The droideka's shield disperses all of the blaster fire and lightsaber energy directed at it, and prepares to fire again...

Coralej ran to the crossroads.

He spares a moment to refocus himself, then attempts to lift the droideka, remembering how difficult it was last time, he draws deeply upon the force.

Spoiler: OOC

So yes, he'd have gone to the crossroads.

Sadaki, who is toe-to-toe with it, blocks a blaster bolt from the droideka and counterattacks, but both of his lightsaber strikes are blocked by the droid's shield system, it looks like they're in a standoff.

The clones open fire, all four of them aiming for the droid. One laser blast makes it through, barely, and singes a piece of its armor plating.
