"Hello Aryem, Twem. I am Cassian's co-pilot." Kay always feels that's the best explanation for him and Cassian.

This spot is quickly becoming less than ideal, and as much as Kay doesn't want to increase the distance between them and Cassian, his orders are to protect the children.

The need to move becomes imperative when a lone trooper turns the corner and nearly runs straight into Kay.

Before the trooper can react, Kay reaches out and grabs him by the front of his armor, lifting him off his feet and causing him to drop his blaster.

Holding the trooper aloft, Kay spies a grenade on the trooper's belt and reaches out one hand to grab it.

"Thank you," he says, before casually throwing the trooper away. The trooper smacks up against the opposite alley wall and falls into an unconscious slump while Kay considers the grenade.

Activating the device, he sticks it to the wall blocking their path, then shoos the children to a safe distance, using his bulk to block them from the explosion.

The resulting boom sends bricks and dirt flying, and when the dust settles they have a new direction to head in.

"This way," he says, guiding them through the new hole in the wall.
