In that case, you guys blur into hyperspace, with the feel of a job well done! Well... eventually, anyway.

Buerau Headquarters, Newhaven
Agent S'Nar leaned back, with a bored look on his face. The chair, like all others on this world, was made of pterified stone and not built for comfort, though just like the Osokans he worked with, S'Nar cared little. He was looking at the jamming device the Dark Siders had used; simple-minded Dug security had fallen for a simple ruse. At least there was some satisfcation in the imminent 'disappearance' of the Dug seucrity liasion that would result from such failure.
"You let them get away then?" asked S'Nar. He didn't need to go into details of the implication behind that question; Rogan knew full well what was meant.
"We wouldn't have gotten all of them."
"Hmm?"
"The one at the Office here, and the apparent loss of the tracking device on the ship that moved away, and that they had an escape vehicle... some of them would have escaped. Those that escaped would never have returned. Do you really want to take half when we could take all?"
"I can think of a few questions Coruscant might ask about that tactic."
"Then deal with them."
"Such as why such factors weren't allowed for in your grab."
"If I had received advanced intelligence about who they were I might have. You cannot track a prey without good information. They ARE the ones Helkin was tracing, yes?"
S'Nar nodded.
"Then they deserve more than a plan on the spot, and no such plan will catch them."
"Still... driving away from you seems... disappointing."
"Again... if your superiors had given intelligence on where the broods of Rand and Kuylen hole themselves up instead of congratulating themselves on a false report of their death, we might have known why they were here. As it is, they slipped through., Had it not been for your... 'instincts'... we might not have known they were here at all."
"I suppose I could find someone to pass the buck to on that one. It was indeed someone's grave error to report them dead. We might even make this look good... IF we follow through."
"Then we shall," growled Rogan.
"Do you really think they'll come back? Are they that stupid?"
"It's inevitable. The Hunt is joined. Their egos won't let them stay away now."
S'Nar began to raise an objection, but then stopped, as a feeling became clear in his mind.
"You know what? I think you're right. Very well then. You'll be wanting extra forces in advance?"
"No."
"No?"
"No. I can do it with what we have. More would just to too unwieldly and more easily spotted. They can't stand against me; we just need the right situation."
"That will be your job."
"Killed Agent Helkin, didn't they?" said Rogan, with a smile.
"That was his price for being dumb enough to go to the fight himself," says S'Nar. "That will never happen with me."
"No, those instincts of yours don't like it do they? Heheheh..."
"I shall go make the necessary arrangements," finishes S'Nar. "It may take a while, but we'll get them."
S'Nar paused at the doorway out.
"After all, we got their transponder codes."

Well, that's pretty much it for your story, folks. You have your generator and Epireus is safe. Well, kinda... the pirates can't bombard you now, but they'll try in other ways. There's a war coming for you, it seems- and unless you kill all of them, the location of your base is not secure.
Tricky.
If he stayed any longer trying to jam the transmitter he'd have gotten killed....too bad it didn't work though. Sorta makes it seem like that whole try was a waste.
But still....we didn't majorly screw this up 😄
