Battle Against Our Nature [SJO Event]

[Riamah]

Given the relationship Ra had with Josh, she was maybe given a little more freedom in the Rest than others that were considered allies. Not one to greatly abuse what was given to her, the former sith and trained assassin moved with grace. She hadn't been here for a great amount of time yet and still stayed close to Josh when she could.

Today was no different. However, she was not entirely welcome in all places, so she stayed hidden in the shadows around Josh. Haunting his steps and keeping herself cloaked with the Force. He might or not be able to tell she was there. What matter though was that she was.

A meeting was being held she was not privy to and the area around her started going nuts. Teams, people and droids alike were scrambled into action. Gleaming what information she could from the various chatter going on around her, it became clear the Rest was under attack. Not by anything external though, but from Kashyyyk itself. Some sort of virus had been brought to the ground by his brother.

When Josh practically ran from the meeting room, she knew where he was heading. Having spent as much time together as they had, Jason would be on his mind more than anything else. So when he moved, she went with him like a shadow. Observing everything he did, she listened to what was spoken between HK, Josh and Jason.

Her own heart was wrenched as she listened to what was said. Knowing where her place was, she stayed out of it and when Josh left, she went with him. Still, within her guarded stance, it was clear Josh did not know she was there. When he started to look around though, she came out of her stealth for him.

Standing almost next to him by now, she would attempt to give him support. Just her presence might be enough, but she knew she would be needed in battle. Hearing the words he sent to the people of the Silver's she smiled and got into line with the Rangers.

He would not be going into this battle alone.

[Reggie Faayare]

Reggie caught the candy that one of the younglings threw towards him. It seems as though the little one was giving him props for trying to talk down the young leader of the crusaders.

After a few seconds passed, Reggie was able to hear a voice in his head out of nowhere and was put on guard at first. Soon, he realizes that there was nothing to worry about and just listened to what was being said. The Padawan took in the information and thought on it, trying to figure out what could be done. Then he realized that if they would need to find a sample in order to examine these neurotoxins. As the message said in his head, they would need to find chemicals that could have similar effects to force-light.....which was something Reggie didn't have any knowledge about. The Padawan quickly moved back to the team he was working with, giving thanks to the voice in his head that was a message from [member="Jessica Med-Beq"].

"If we have a sample then we need to examine it now. We need to see if these neurotoxins are vital to how this virus works and if we can eliminate them."

Seeing that the self proclaimed "crusaders" were on the move, Reggie quickly wrapped up his words.

"If you guys find anything then send me a message. I will be keeping everyone updated with what I discover while i'm on the move. I'll be back as soon as possible."

Quickly catching up with the crusaders, Reggie pulled out his datapad and continued to see what he could do to cure the virus, sending anything he found to the team trying to cure the it. The Padawan couldn't help but laugh as Akela spoke about ice cream cakes melting if we didn't succeed. She was able to bring light to such a grim situation.

[Jessica Med-Beq]

"Looks like the big beasts can no longer move, leaving the small fry to charge past the immobile hulks. If we can consider Wookiees small fry, of course"

"Set the weapons to stun, keep firing the stun rounds"

Although Jessica knew well that the search for a cure wasn't her primary job out here, the injuries began to mount, especially since the big fish were getting mobility kills, even though the term mobility kill is typically used in a vehicular combat context. In the meantime, she received a cryptic message in the Force such that the epidemic cannot be stopped by just about any medicine. However, there were a few things that such a cure required, the main one being, due to the nature of the virus, airborne bioavailability. That is, can the cure be absorbed by the respiratory systems of the afflicted? Were neurotoxins, and their antidotes thereof, the sort of stuff that had airborne bioavailability? I must admit I don't know that much about the bioavailability of poisons, but I do know that this datum typically comes in two flavors: airborne and oral, since there are those substances that don't work well in airborne administration, but can be absorbed orally, and vice-versa, Jessica thought, while the bulk of the work outside lied on stun rounds fired from stuff such as MobileMortar-4s.

Objective 1: Defend The Silver Rest!​

The teenaged padawan caught the offered jellybean, then seemed to have a sidebar conversation with someone through a comlink.

The young clone trooper kept one eye on where Akela was very likely conspiring to doom them all with a sugar rush. The other, the boy kept on the Jedi guy. Three didn't understand the gist of the conversation, but it left him with the impression that this padawan dude probably had more of an idea about what was going on than Three did.

Which wasn't saying much. Three had no idea what was going on, other than they were getting attacked by Wookiees and random creatures coming out of the literal woodwork.

Also, it might help if he had names for these people.

"Hi," the young clone remarked, waiting until the man had ended his call.

"I'm Three." Well, okay, so that wasn't his name. His name was 3X744. But every one called him Three. So... close enough, right?

"You know Akela?" the boy inquired, indicating their self-appointed Togruta overlord. Really, Three was just assessing whether Reggie realized how much trouble they were in.

No, not the rampaging Wookiees. Akela on a sugar high.

Akela was looking at all of them here as the medical AI came up again listening to Reggie. "We have several samples, biometric data has been collected for years since the jedi were on this world. We have detected the abnormality and I have the Kiyomi moving into position to disperse an antidote." Akela didn't understand any of what she was saying but she was an AI programmed to create cures with the field unit packs... she had helped cure the super rakghoul plague that had been unleashed upon the silver jedi and infected everyone there. THe padawan was moving and motionign for Akari while the droid were moving out to fight the things attacking and making sure the defenses were set up. "Come crisaders we need to secure and protect the candy stores...... if they fall then where will we get all of our sugary treats and goodness."

 

[Tanaski Yumi]

Unsurprisingly Akari had more or less shoved the sour type of jelly beans into her older brothers hand, letting him deal with the taste while she went for the more sweet items. Things just seemed to getting more and more confusing with each passing second, Tana not sure weather to play along just to keep an eye on Akari, or try to drag both Padawan back into some safe room until the whole situation was over.

Out of the group only Reggie seemed to be able to help with the whole cure thing, even if these AIs were apparently doing most of the work. He couldn't help but feel like in this instant he had been relegated to baby sitting the two hyperactive girl and their cray candy crusade. As the groups started on their jounry to save the candy stores the young teenager spoke up, intruding himself to those around. "An well I am Tanasuki, this little gremlin her is my sister Akari", he replied, getting a pouty look from the girl currently stuffing her face with jelly beans.

"As for Akela, well I have never met her personally, but she has a habit and small reputation for doing stuff like this during important and dangerous circumstances". "Only problem is a certain little girl decided to get involved due to her sweet tooth", Tana making clear he was talking about Akari during that last sentence.

[Josh Dragovalor]

Objective 1: Defend the Silver Rest
Allies: [member="Riamah"]

Josh was intent on taking the lead and ensuring that his squad of Rangers would be able to handle the rest in his wake. If he could leave a path of disoriented and downed fighters, then it'd make the rest of the job that much easier. With that many attackers though... Josh knew that holding back as he usually did was not going to happen. He had to fight, and he had to fight quite close to the full extent of his abilities. Which was fine with him... The Rest had become his home away from home. There were so many memories, so many dreams and aspirations that lay at Rest here... And so many that needed protecting. The Jedi Master let out a deep exhale, turning his head a moment to note that Ra had joined him. Smiling lightly, he would turn his head back to the approaching hordes.

"Ra, you're with me. Dragon Squad, you follow behind and attack any that aren't down after I'm through. If you can, cover me. But don't focus too hard on it unless it's an emergency. Ra and I can take care of ourselves."

The electricity around Josh began to intensify as he would begin to be lifted into the air with Force Flight. He hoped Ra had a means of keeping up, but knowing her... She'd be fine. Normally, Josh would want to conserve energy and ensure that casualties were kept to a minimum, but with how much he was facing... He knew what had to be done.

And with that, he called out full bellow to his squad and to all around.

"WE WILL DEFEND OUR HOME!"

Activating Force Speed, Josh would charge forward, his lightsabers trailing behind him and dragging across the ground as he rocketed full speed in the air toward the hordes. Taking a deep breath as he applied every inch of focus that he could, the Master of the Order would attack the approaching creatures with ferocity not previously seen by those around from the Jedi Master. Using both lightsabers, he sliced and slashed opponents at lightning speed as he cut through the hordes, but notably attacking sides and shoulders of creatures and Wookiees in order to disable them instead of going for the kill. His accuracy and precision was monumental, but it was taking a great deal of focus and strain to continue to hit specific points while going at the speed that he was. Some creatures managed to get close enough to strike but most would flinch back and hesitate due to the sparking electricity radiating around the Jedi Master.

A group of Wookiees would attempt to blockade the Jedi Master, who would respond by kicking off the shoulder of one of the Wookiees in order to dodge a swipe and launching himself further into the air. The Wookiees would open fire with their bowcasters. The Jedi Master would hold out a hand, originally intending to project a barrier but knowing that going on the offensive here was key when one faced so many opponents. The bolts would be stopped in their tracks as Josh took command of them, before sending them firing to the side and into the skin of one of the creatures from the Shadowlands. The creature was large, and was big enough to reach Josh even in the air. Focusing on him, the creature would let out a fierce roar and attack with a large claw. The Wookiees would be caught in the attack and end up disabled, though Josh noted no casualties. As for Josh, he would see it coming at the last moment and disappear for a moment with Force Phase, the claw that would have torn him to shreds not even touching him as he phased through it. He was still improving on Force Phase and couldn't hold it for long, but he was able to just enough...

Knowing he could douse any fires he set, Josh would cut Force Flight and land, spinning his heel as the creature charged him again. His lightsabers would deactivate and be clipped to his belt as he held out both hands, beginning to charge an orb of fire...

The rangers meanwhile, led by Parks had been flabbergasted by the rampage of the Master of the Order, but followed orders nonetheless. Any that Josh hadn't managed to completely disable, they finished the job with quick stun bolts, or blows to the head or neck if need be. Josh's orders had been very clear, and nobody on Dragon Squad was going to dare disobey them after what they had just seen. The squad would begin to catch up to Josh just as the large dark creature would begin charging the Master of the Order...

Objective: Deploy

Akela was looking at them and leading the way as they could stay safe and she was watching the AI's continue to work with the hand devices that they had. She was leading the way towards the stores of candy that they needed to protect as reports from some of the rangers and biots that were working had the Kiyomi moving into positon to optimally deliver a cure. The AI's came bdravian ack up while speaking. "So we have been discussing it and the countermeasures are prepared, we adapted countermeasures set up to handle Gundravian hookspore or symbiotes. The high level of danger those possess has given us plenty of means to handle the problems that were presented here and we are deploying countermeasure from aerial to seep into the rest and planet." Akela looked at the AI's and then at three and Tana when she had a bag of candy for her and Akari.... "So does that mean it is going to be over?"

 

[Allya Vi'Dreya]

The darkness was becoming overwhelming. While she could withstand the avalanche of it, she knew the people she was protecting couldn't. Having lost contact with the others for now, due to the chaos, she growls. Pushing back into the ship, she forces the Wookiee survivors to be fully loaded onto the ship, the rest of the village soon inside the ship. There was enough room, perhaps for more too. Once everyone was loaded, she closed the hatch, and activated the shields. Pushing through the fuzzy wookiees, she moved into the pilot seat, and lifted the ship. “Droids...arm the wookiees with our spare blasters. We aren't stopping here." One of the wookiee elders roared his approval. While she didn't understand them, they had an understanding. They trusted her right now, she was there next to them, hurting, and willing to sacrifice for them. It was enough on both sides.

The ship lifted, and she targeted another village on the brink of the tidal wave of darkness coming out. Talking to the elder as he seemed to understand her, she tried to make her desires known. “Take the weapons, help push the survivors into the ship, we defend them just long enough to get them onboard, I want to get one more village after this. I don't know how many survivors there will be, we don't have enough room, but we will have to just make it, pile people on top of one another.” The elder grunted and went back, roaring to everyone.

She pushed through the trees, avoiding the branches as best as she could. This ship wasn't designed for intense mobility, it was a problem, she was becoming more aware of. Laser cannons blasted tree branches down to the floor below, and soon the next village came into view. Much of it was destroyed already, and her teeth clenched down. “Get ready! We move fast, strike true!” She yells out at the wookiees. Ship landed in a central square and opened up, the stronger wookiees brought out the weapons and fought to defend their people. They went from being slaughtered to having a chance to save others, this wasn't lost on them. The Sithling hoped out, and sped right into the danger, blaster and saber swining. Her arm was throbbing heavily, but she ignored it. There was time to heal later, but for now any hesitation was paid in lives.

Blade strikes down through an especially large creature, teeth and fangs and claws, she had no clue what it was. There were a lot more injured in this village. However, they were quickly being escorted by the adult wookiees who didn't have weapons. The emotions from the wookiees were almost overwhelming. She shook her head, snapping herself out of it, and diving into the battle time and again, to hold the line until every last one of the survivors was loaded aboard. The wookiees defended her this time, giving the sithling cover fire as she retreated back to the ship.

Once more ship launched and they went to the last village in the area. It was bad, the trees were making it harder and harder to get into the zones, and it took more time than the last one. Besides that, it was getting cramped, wookiees ontop of wookiees. They had to try though. As she reached the area, the tree branch the village was on was breaking, there was a small group of survivors being pushed towards the edge of it. They were about to plummet to their deaths. As the wookiees inside the ship saw this, they roared in despair. Finally the emotion was simply to much for the passion sith. Too much fear, despair, grief, it was overwhelming, unable to be controlled. Her eyes took on the familiar yellow corruption under her helmet, as her dark aura established itself much farther from her body. I am selfish. I refuse to let another die. “Pilot the ship! Get us as close as possible to the end of the branch.” A droid quickly took over, and brought the ship up close. Moving to the back through the bodies, to the rear door, it opened, and the wind rushed passed her, threatening to tear her out of the ship altogether.

Allya activated the magnetic grips on her boots, making it so she could stand firm in the onslaught. Hand reached out, as she fed on the emotions all around her, letting it fill her to the brim, until she exploded. As one of the beasts lept at the family of wookiees on the edge of the branch, she caught it, using telekinesis, her specialty. Using the body of the captured creature she literally began to beat all the other creatures till they were swept off the branch end, so much rage filling her. Once they were saved, there wasn't enough time to think. The branch snapped, they, and the entire village began to fall towards the ground so far below. Eyes were a deeper yellow now, and she plucked them from the air, holding the five surviving wookiees in her power, and pulled them towards the ship entrance. It was...hard, this much fine control from so far away. Arm shook, as she forced her will into existence, and only once all five were inside the ship, did she close the door, and collapse against the bulkhead. Panting from the exertion, as well as the corruption flowing through her, she makes her way back towards the cockpit.

Slumping into the chair, she plots a course. If there was a safe place, any place on this planet that would be safer than the others, it was the Silver Rest. So, with a ship full of hair, she moved up out of the tree line, and made a bee line there. What she found wasn't reassuring at all, battle lines had been made. However, the wookiees were armed, and many capable, they could help defend it as well. Moving to a landing pad, the wookiees begin to unload, and move inside the compound, most of them carrying CIS blasters of various kinds. They helped carry the badly wounded, and the medical droid stabilized as many as it could, but it was quickly running out of supplied. Reaching down to her arm terminal, the girl pressed a button and forced a suppressant into her blood. Sure, her powers would be reduced, as her emotions calmed, but, she couldn't afford to give into the dark side fully quite yet.

Standing, she moves with about four of her droids, and a handful of wookiees. They soon came across the Jedi Grandmaster, fighting that dark creature. The hallmark of the small sith, she lept into action. “Defend the Rest, protect the Jedi!” The wookiees roared agreement, having followed her this far and the droids weapons came out.

A massive barrage of fire came from them all, at the large creature charging the Jedi. Blaster bolts peppered its large body, and Allya raised up some debris from the destruction, and launched it at the creatures face, trying to slow its charge, or rechannel it. Red lightsaber glowed brightly in one hand, and blaster in the other, as her forces met up and combined with the rangers, attempting to slow the danger to a halt. However, for the moment, she kept out of the war path of the raging grand master, but ready to jump into the fray completely when the opportunity showed itself.

Pulling out her two short shoto lightsabers, her own attacks were just as precise as Josh's her fighting style dictated this. Not one to waste energy or movements on anything grand, her stabs, jabs and slices were quick and clean.

She followed behind Josh, but not by that much of a distance. Enough for her to catch any he might have missed in his almost rampage across the battlefield.

Ra had faced down several large monsters in her time and this would just be another. Provided it wasn't lightsaber resistant at all, her blades would be there to assist Josh. Wearing a smile on her face, she timed her attack to coincide with his. When that fire he was forming was launched at the front of the creature, Ra came at it from behind.

Replacing her short blades up her sleeves, she drew out a weapon that rarely saw any action. It was her double-bladed lightsaber that had yellow blades and attempted to leap onto its back to stab at it from behind.

Yuroic was late to the party, he had been distracted with his morning exercises and locked in his own room that he didn't realiss that there was an attack going on till it was too late. When he heard Josh roaring, Yuroic had jumped up, grabbed his armour and weapons and rushed to the Master of the Order's presence. Josh never roared, not even at Padawans that tested his patience. This was different, this meant there must be real trouble. When Yuroic arrived, he could only stop and stare at the madness. It was crazy that they were under attack by the wookiees. He grabbed the nearest Ranger and looked at the soldier.

"What the kark is going on?" Yuroic shouted above the wookiee roars. "Why are we under attack by the wookiees?"

"It's... It's a virus.. sssirr. They've lost control. Master DragonsFlame ordered no kill shots and to only disable them ti we find a cure." The soldier stuttered as Yuroic held him. Throwing the soldier back into position, Yuroic searched for Josh.

He saw Riamah heading off in a direction, knowing she was likely going to off to help Josh, he looked in the direction she was heading and saw him fighting the wookiees. Yuroic shook his head, sure if he tried that Josh call him crazy or an idiot. Never fight a horde alone. Drawing his bow, he flipped it around in his hands, hitting anyone dared trying to attack him. He launched an explosive arrow in the air, scare some of the wookiees away. Heading to Josh, he used the Force to speed his attacks so he could take on more opponents than he normally would. His bow whacking on the head or sweeping them to land on their head.

His attacks were sharp and accurate as he moved around the horde. "You know, I had plans for a blind date today. This really came at a good time for me miss it!" Yuroic jokingly shouted to Josh and Riamah. "So, we keeping count? Have some friendly competition?"

Akela was looking up into the air as the Kiyomi was sending out the synthesized cure in an aerosol form. The massive medical super star defender was just beautiful when she looked at Akari and the others..... then she saw someone... her senses tingled... that secret place in the back of her head that told her someone somewhere needed to be saved from their grumpy face. "QUICK AKARI.... MY CRUSADER SENSES ARE TINGLING SOMEONE SOMEWHERE HERE NEEDS A HUG AND CANDY." She said it and was looking around as she could feel it within the force. She was looking at the defenses when the droids, biots, rangers, jedi, one of the nanny droids that looked after the younglings unleashed hellfire missiles from her one weaponized arm.

"THis way." SHe went off running with her arms out to the side making whooshing sounds as she flew around. She looked over at some of the others and saw them... someone who wasn't normally around but the large blue eyes looked up at the girl with her lower lip quivering.... her lekku twitching. She held up her hands with some of the candy and a large grin appeared on her face showing full teeth as she closed her eyes. "Oh great armored warrior... your noble efforts have saved the day and here you will need this to recharge." She grinned more and laughed but looked at her and grabbed a handful of the candy. "Hi I'm Akela want to be friends?"

 

[Tanaski Yumi]

Tana just continued to follow behind the small Togutra as they lead this 'crusade' through the Jedi temple, so much for fighting stuff today. At let it was something new, who else could day they went on a candy crusade during a base attack by infected monsters and wookies? Probably not the most interesting but very different, could probably make a nice comedy story out of it if you tried. For the most part this little trip for candy was quite calm, until the small little leader suddenly shouted out at the top of her lungs getting Tana on edge, only for it to be about hugs and candy. At this point he should make some sort of contraption to give himself face palms.

Looking on he watched as the small yellow skinned girl and his younger sister ran off in very over the top cartoon ninja fashion, something he took a little offense to. "I don't run like that... silly stupid mmmgh". Letting off a sight the young man followed the two towards the person in need of 'hugs', said person being an armored warrior of sorts that had apparently been helping to defend the temple from the oncoming hordes. "This is the person who needs a hug? really"? He replied to the two small beings, himself getting out his saber just in case some of the nearby monsters managed to get past the defense line, the sounds of roars and feeling of darkness in the force hard to ignore.

[Allya Vi'Dreya]

Allya was focused on defeating the giant beast, as well as the numerous little minions that came from the side. However, she was not prepared for what she saw next. It was the cutest thing she had ever seen in her entire life. A tiny little togruta with giant eyes, and another adorable little girl with her, offering her candy in the middle of a battle. It almost seemed surreal in the happenings. However, upon seeing these two angelic beings in the middle of this carnage, emotions flowed through the girl. Vexia was put to the side. The Sith in her shelved, and the inner self, the Mandalorian, the girl, came out. I must protect them, at all costs.

As Tana and Akari were also there, her eyes narrowed a bit. Protect the kids, the bigger one looked able to handle himself. “We have to move fast, its taking to long for whatever they are doing to work.” Reaching down, she patted Akela's head softly with an armored hand. “Just one moment, my lady. I have something to finish first. But then, your offer sounds delightful.”

Red lightsaber snapped to life, and she hacked and slashed at limbs that tried to come at them from some dark forest monster. Hand reached out, and she force pushed it into the larger creature still being fought a ways back. As more wookiees rushed them, the girl's blaster came up, and expertly fired into each one of them a stun blast, knocking them back. Don't kill, don't give into the darkness, don't corrupt.

As the last group of enemy wookiees fell, and the anti-serum was pumped through, the attacks grew much less intense. Allya relaxed just a bit, and sadly, that nearly cost her everything. As she did, claws from an Asyyyriak came down at little Akela. Gritting her teeth, she moved fast, injured, but armored arm coming up, to block the slash. Claws dig into the lesser armored parts of her suit, however, the armor weave did a good job of not letting it get to deep. Blaster went up, and she fired, blaster after blast into it, forcing it to get stunned as well. Eyes looked around the room, and her technology scanned it all.

Besides the large creature, the threat was ended. Using her comm, she brought her droids over, to guard them this time. Finally, she turned to Akela, and kneeled in front of her, left fist on the ground, right one over her heart. Make her feel like it's all okay. “Lady Akela. You are clearly a brave, beautiful, and fierce warrior. It is my honor to meet you. I will take your gift, and use them well, to heal after this long battle. I would love to be friends with you.” She laughed a bit under her helmet, before standing back up. “I'm Allya.” The automated medical pack in her suit injected her with medicine to stop the bleeding , and more pain killers.

Eyes look back at the larger one with them and nodded. “We need to get them both back to a safer place. It seems most of the danger is at least subsiding, however, we need to keep the little ones sa....in reserve, for the truly important missions. Don't you agree?”

PADAWAN WAR JOURNAL: Second hour of the great seige..... we have eluded the dangerous and powerful nanny droids enforcing naptime... and I have met an Ally. Akari a fellow padawan has joined mine and Zak's quest. THe war on veggies will not fail and we shall fight another day..... there is also the concerning things that have been hapening now. Some creatures came to the rest and tried to steal the candy in the rooms... Me and Akari have been saving it by making sure it is in the most protected place... our tummies.... and in doing so our super awesome special jedi powers activated. Or maybe we should call them super special awesome wonder twins from different mother powers united awesomesauce powers activated...... A strange woman needed restorative candy and a hug.

Akela was looking up at the tall woman in armor and she nodded hearing that they needed to be in reserve in case something happened. She moved forward quickly looking at the woman... or metal woman... sometimes people built weird things in the galaxy. WHat if she had joined a droid rebellion after her masters had built her for the things rumored that Master Dragonsflame did with darkside ladies..... then because she didn't want to do it she turned against them and now was here to turn the revolution of the droids into a big thing within the silver jedi thus secretly creating another droid army that would rise up to threaten the galaxy....... Akela was looking at her with wider eyes that dilated her pupils for a moment as her mouth went open. "Gaint metal woman spoke to me."

She was looking at her though and moved forward wrapping her arms around her leg and offering more of the candy. "Okay giant metal robot lady thing we'll go and be in reverse in case something happens.... but." She heard a sound and looked at one of the jedi crouched down who was kind of hurt. "HEALING JELLY BEAN." She said it loudly and tossed it at the man as he caught it. "THanks" He groaned and she turned back around looking at the giant metal lady and then Akari.... "AKari... bestow upon her your boons and then lets go have a tea party... the boxes of sugar for the tea should be unguarded and we can protect it from dangerous foes and villains that are around the rest." She nodded and stood there for a moment putting her hands to her side and running off as she made whooshing sounds.

 

[Tanaski Yumi]

It was just so strange to see children be so out of touch with the world, right now both himself and ally were cutting down the infected beasts that managed to scale the wall, his saber slicing through their bodies with ease. The green bladed saber working just as he expected to be, funnily enough this attack being the first time he had properly used the blade to end somethings life. Thankfully thing were become more controlled as that anti-sryum was able to be borough to the front lines, Tana letting out a small sigh as the waves of one coming enemies started to dissipate, the rangers and other Jedi taking care of things. His main focus being the tiny little rat bag going around on their crusade, Akela and Akari having recruited the strange armored women into their fight for the candy.

Turning around he looked on with a small smirk as 'Ally' more or less pledged her allegiance to the small Togruta warlord, it brought out a small giggle. Mainly since he did not expect someone decked out in all that armor to play along with the little girls self proclaimed goals and story. Guess even some Sith have a soft spot for little kids, though it was still a strange site to see, would make for a rather funny story later on when all was said and done. Standing up the women turned to address him, surprising, her tone being more serious. "Yes we cann't use our trump cards right away, it would be better to have them ready for a realllllly special mission, on that only the great Akela and her right hand women can handle". It was hard to keep a straight face but the best way to get the girls away from the fighting was to well trick them.

While this was taking place Akari could do nothing but stare in aww at the armored lady, such a sight being very new to her, "Sore wa hanashimasu, big giant metal women". To her this day was full of surprises, from making a new friend, going off on an adventure of sugar and sweets, and now she was meeting a large armored figure that could talk, how did that happen? There was not mouth on the armor, how did words get out? Such a strange galaxy, but an exciting one never the least. As Akela gave the order she approached the kneeling being, raising her arms in the air, "in the name of all that is sweet I declare you our new golem and defender of sugar, we must go and eat all the candy".

Turing around she addressed her older brother, giving him puppy dog eyes, "elder brother, you must come with us to make tea, mother has passed down her skills to you, thus it falls on your pretty hair to make us tea". Before being able to reply the young girl had quickly run after her accomplic in the sugar heist of the century, both girls getting smaller and smaller as they ran away, Tana turning to Ally, "Well I guess we should get going after them".

Objective 1

The efforts of [member="Allya Vi'Dreya"] and [member="Gherron Dragonsflame"] and the others did not go unnoticed. Their efforts to disable the Wookiees non-lethally earned the attention of the Wookiees who had not been effected by the virus. One of the Wookiees would approach Gherron in turn. He was a bit of a grizzled, greying Wookiee but it was clear by the looks of him that he was the chief of the village she had just helped save.

They began to speak in their native Wookian tongue. Should Gherron or anyone around be able to understand Shriwook, or have a device for translating, they would be able to hear as such: "I cannot express enough my gratitude for choosing to spare the lives of my people, even if they have been acting out of turn from what ever sort of thing has effected them. Some of my warriors have not yet been effected by this disaster, and are happy to fight by your side and ensure that we can save our people - and this planet."

With that noted though, the virus was clearly beginning to worsen as an even larger army of creatures began to advance from the forest, and even some of the trees themselves began to take form and begin to move, heading toward the group...

Objective 2

The Jedi that had been battling back the forces approaching the Rest, headed by Josh, were doing well so far but would need to continue pressing the attack. [member="Allya Vi'Dreya"] had done her part in securing the villages for a bit, though had now joined the fray in defending the Silver Rest. Josh was grateful for the help, and knew that if she was here, then the Wookiee villages at least had been stabilized long enough to allow for such a move. The blaster fire would riddle the creature, beginning to wear it down in turn as Josh and Ra would get their strikes in. Josh's attacks would be sped up by the help of [member="Yuroic Xeraic"] and Josh would leap into the air to get a good strike in on his foe. The creature would try to sink it's giant claws into him, and Josh closed his eyes as he would use Force Phase - phasing through the claws and re-appearing moments later as he would land on it's back. He would bring down both his lightsabers into it's flesh and begin to take off at a run, his lightsabers running through the creature which let out a loud hiss in pain the more that Josh moved. Managing two sets of slices on the creature's head, Josh would launch himself into the air and activate Force Levitation.

"GET BACK!" Josh would bark toward the others. "Get back and lure the Wookiees your way so they aren't caught! I'll handle this!"

Josh would deactivate his lightsabers, letting them float at his sides as he would hold out both hands. The creature would begin to recover as a large fireball would begin to charge up from both his hands. The fireball got bigger, and bigger, and bigger, before the flames would begin to cloak around his own body as if to contain that power as the fireball continued to increase in size. As the creature would lunge toward their quarry, Josh would let out a resounding scream, launching the massive orb of fire - which would explode after contacting the creature in a blinding, fiery blast with heat that could be felt for miles. Josh's body remained cloaked in flame as he would catch his sabers, allowing himself to drop down into the blast and attack with one more slice, cleaving the creature in half. This wasn't one he would be able to save, it was too entrenched in the dark side even before this virus. It was a monster, through and through. And Josh understood that putting it down quickly in this case was the best he could do.

As he landed, he would snap his fingers. The flames that caked the field would dissipate before they could do any serious damage to the plant life around them.

But Josh could feel the effects of the virus, ripping and tearing through the planet... It was growing worse by the minute. Around them, the plant life would begin to come to life, and slowly begin to advance on them... As the flames would dissipate from Josh's body, he was slow to get to his feet. Using that kind of energy would have taken a lot out of anyone, but he was doing his best to see this through. But he hadn't gotten out of that unscathed. Relying so heavily, aggressively and recklessly on pyrokinesis had charred parts of his face. Not even his control of it could save him from the damage that fire could cause when used to that extent.

[Nick Dragovalor]

This ended now.

Despite his house arrest within The Silver Rest that had kept him from leaving it, Nick knew that he could no longer stand by and watch people get hurt - watch people die, for what he had done. The virus was his fault. His Master may have erased his memories to ensure the success of the virus being planted, indoctrinated him, and made him something he was not... It didn't matter to him. These people had accepted him... Or, well, at least hadn't killed him on the spot. He needed to repay that. They may fear him for what he had done, and he wondered sometimes why he wasn't just killed... But he owed his brother a debt. He owed the Silver Jedi a debt.

And he would repay it today.

He knew where the ship had fallen. He'd tracked it some time ago and made plans to go after it when his house arrest was over. Which means he knew where the virus was most likely originating from. Or at least he knew where to start. He might not be able to stop the parts of the virus that were already within the planet, but he could sure as hell ensure that the virus didn't bother them again once the cure was made. Knowing he would be violating the trust of the Silver Jedi by doing what he was doing, he felt horrible... But he had made his decision. While everyone was preoccupied with stopping the attack, he had raided the training area for two lightsabers. Figuring out how to hijack the training sabers to use their fullest capabilities, he had run through the battlefield, hoping that people would be too busy to stop him.

His brother had seen him, he knew, out in the field after they had killed that giant monster. He had called out to him, he had pleaded for him to stop.

He knew.

But he had already made his decision. And nothing was going to stop him. Nothing beyond death itself would.

A new chance at life had been granted to him...

This was the time to seize it... Even if he threw it away here and now to do what was right.

The one-time Sith Lord disappeared into the Shadowlands... And did not return. Over time, the Silver Jedi Order was able to develop a cure for its citizens, as well as develop a serum to stop the spread of the virus across Kashyyyk. Nick knew they would, he had seen how capable they were. But so long as the core of the virus remained, it could still potentially form an immunity and spread once again. He needed to cut it out. He needed to destroy it. No matter the cost.

A week passed, and he did not return. Two weeks, three weeks, a month... Nothing. Search parties were sent, but the Sith Lord was nowhere to be found.

Two months had passed, and scouts sighted a figure hobbling from the direction of the Shadowlands toward the Rest. He was covered in dried blood, his Sith robes torn beyond repair. He bore scratches all around his body, indicating he had found himself against the creatures, the spawn of the Shadowlands that had been drawn to the virus core and had gone to protect it. Open wounds were roughly patched up with what material he had been able to scrounge up. He appeared to be dragging one leg, indicating it had been broken, and the training lightsabers he had stolen hung from his belt, one of them having been split into two. His breath was haggerd and rushed, and it looked as though his throat had been partly slashed. He was clearly just barely clinging to life, with Force knows how long it had taken him to get back to the Rest in this condition.

But his return, considering how stubborn he was... Meant one thing.

Victory.

He handed the lightsabers off to the nearest scout he could, muttering something about needing to report to Master of the Order Dragonsflame. But he didn't make it that far. A bloodied mess, he had collapsed and needed time in a bacta tank to save his life.

But he had been victorious. The virus was no more.
