Darth Cyron was once a leading member of the original Dark Council within the Jen'ari Empire. One of the most powerful Sith of his time, his understanding of Sith alchemy approached that of even the Emperor. In time, his lust for power became too strong and he made an attempt for the throne, at the head of an army of alchemically created soldiers and mind slaved Sith.

The fighting was fierce, and many lives were lost in the brief civil war that engulfed the Jen'ari Empire, but in the end the Emperor emerged the victor, casting Darth Cyron down. He escaped however with a small gathering of his followers."

In the dark void of space Darth Cyron has slowly been rebuilding his forces, gathering what disples will come willingly, and enslaving all others. His fleet of vessels is fast becoming a threat to the growing might of the Jen'ari Empire, the Emperor directs the new Dark Council to wipe out their traitor comrade.

PHASE I
The Jen'ari Empire fleet has met with Darth Cyron's fleet. The Jen'ari Empire must engage the fleet in a dog fight to disable the command ships and lower the number of enemy fighters so Phase II can commence.

 

[Jack Anderson]

Jack was on the bridge of the DDC Hotdrop, a Farstar style CR90 corvette, his ship was flanked by a wing of starfighers, six squadrons of ARC-170 starfighters, Nova wing the group was named, they had been without a contract for a few months, Jack managed to scrape them up and add them into Blackwing’s rosters at an absolute bargain. They were going to help clear a path for any sort of bordering action Jack and the 701 might end up undertaking later on in the battle there were plenty of targets for it, while at the same time that meant there would be plenty of resistance.

“Alright you apes!” Jack said over the comms to Nova Wing, “S-foils in attack position, shoot straight, and remember proton torpedos cost more than you make in a year, you waste one on a fighter and you’ll be washing dishes in your spare time to pay it back.”

The last one was mostly a joke, to help lower some of the tension while at them same time remind the fighter jockeys to pick their targets wisely when it came to the heavy ordinance. He know that they wouldn’t waste a torpedo, but sometimes if you lose your cool in battle you don’t thing about things like that.

The sensors pinged Darth Cyrpn’s ships were accelerating to attack speeds and launching fighters, without needing to wait for orders Nova Wing was off, moving to intercept so that the Jen’ari Fleet could scramble their own fighters and brace for the attack.

[Darth Rowe]

The The Black Widow comes out of hyperspace to see Darth Cyron's fleet already in attack position. But Rowe was already one step ahead. During the hyperspace flight she ordered all pilots ready for take off and battle in their fighters, all gunners to be ready on the Black Widows Turbo lasers before they arrived. Rowe was impressed as the Black Widow hadn't even came to a full stop yet and she watched from the bridge as hundreds of Sith fighters left the hangars of the black widow all working together on a full scale assault of Cyron's fleet. Even all weapons from the black widow had begun firing upon Cyron's fleet. This was a simple plan, kill that tratorious Darth Cyron by any means. Rowe knew he was on one of those capital ships, but which one. Rowe closed her eyes and begun reaching out with the force to find him. There. She found him. The biggest capital ship hidden beyond the entire fleet. So the Emperor was right, we cannot go straight for him, we have to destroy his army first. Rowe looked to her Imperial officer commander. Admiral I want all weapons from the black widow focused on those enemy star destroyers. We need to break through to that large one in the back. The Admiral nodded and bowed. Right away Mi'lady.


The Admiral quickly gave the orders. Rowe begun watching as Turbo lasers begun lighting up Cyron's Star Destroyers. Rowe then noticed over on the DDC Hotdrop Corvette her apparentice [member="Jack Anderson"] begun scrambling fighters to handle the enemy fighters. Rowe cracked a smile. Very good my apprentice Rowe thought to herself. Rowe watched as one star destroyer had been completely destroyed by the Black Widow's weapons. The explosion was glorious. A sight of pure beauty, one Star Destroyer down, numerous to go. It was only a matter of time before Cyron would meet his end.

[Xi Rell]

Not much use in a straigt dogfight, Xi has taken her cloaked fighter around the perimeter of the massing enemy fleet, after she left [member="Darth Rowe"] flagship. Scouting. Doing recon. Covert scans of enemy cap ships, that the Blade's Fury advanced scaners wer capable of gathering. Enemy fighter-squadron atack vektors. Intercepted comunikues. All of vhich wuld be useful, to transmit to her allies. Using her fighters amazing speed to its ful advantage.

"Efektive inteligence, is the most deadly weapon on any batlefield." she remynded her-self.

Xi didnt like operating as part of a squadron. She vas ofered one, to lead in-to this battle, but she refuzed. For one, her fighter vas a recon craft, not a real fighter. Haveing a squadron means haveing to look after the other pilots. Haveing to think not just for her own objektives, but her squadrons. And also a lack of freedom, in picking her own way of kontributing in the battle. Static battle plans ver rigid, slow-to-adapt things. They tended not to survive kontakt vith the enemy. And vhen they failed, soldiers got killed.

So, she taken it upon her-self, to alert her allies of enemy moves, in advance. Until and unles time wuld come for the fighting to get up-close and personal, in boarding actions, that wuld be Xis kontribution.

ALERT - ENEMY SQUADRON C21 ALTERING CORSE TO FLANK OUR SQUADRON V11

"I see it..." the Bladeborn woman noded, alredy staring hard at the real-time tactical map on her HUD.

"Squad V11, this is Xi Rel. You got flankers, inbound from yor 9 o clock!" she commed the squad leader, using a encrypted chanel.

She got a aknowledgment, and watched in satisfaktion, as the squad split in 2 parts, one of them moving off to cut-of the flanking move. Then the other part of the squad flanked them, and put them at a disadvantage.

Vith a private smile, she continued scaning for threats. One thing catched her eye... she kuickly keyed for the com agen.

"Darth Rowe, be alert, a pair of enemy Star Destroyers have split-of from the defence line. Telemetry vektors sugest they are preparing to pincer the Black Widow." she reported.

Not waiting for a reply, trusting the Sith Lady to akt on her warning, Xi continued to scan and obzerve the enemy movements. One thing did catch her eye... at the back of the enemy batlegroup, there vas a gap in the line... one vhich culd take her all the way to Darth Cyron's flagship. She wudnt try it yet, since she suspekted a Sith as powerful as him wuld sense her, if she tryed to board, but it vas something to keep in mind, for later. Vhen he got more ocupied vith the battle.

 

[grammaticus]

The Eternal Fury dropped out of hyperspace several hundred kilometers away from the Black Widow. Before the starfighters from the vessel had even been launched a single shot from the Harbinger Class Assault Cannon ripped through space between the combating fleets. The single round pierced through the shields of one of the two Star Destroyers moving against [member="Darth Rowe"], secondary explosions ripping through the ship before finally resulting in a final crippling explosion. The Star Destroyer was ripped in two down the middle as it slowly died, the shattered pieces being brushed aside by the sheer size of the Eternal Fury as it continued forward.

Darth Animus stood with his hands folded behind his back on the bridge of his newly completed flagship, watching with curiosity as the remnants of the Star Destroyer burned to either side of the ship. He knew the Harbinger Class Assault Cannon he had developed was powerful, but seeing it in action was entirely different then data projections. He made a mental note to congratulate the firing crew later, it appears they had had hit the enemy vessels primary power generators. Such accuracy at a moments notice deserved praise, even he admitted it.

"Well, now that we are here, it is time to show that traitorous dog the might of the Jen'ari fleet. Send word to [member="Nicole Callix"] and the rest of the Dark Eagle Squadron to move out at once and begin recon of the enemy ships. I want to know which ship Darth Cyron is on. We will show that fool that fool the true power of the Jen'ari Empire!" A cheer went up across the bridge as Darth Animus spoke, though it quickly quieted down as they all turned back to their tasks. Hundreds of weapon emplacements roared to life across the Eternal Fury, raining fire and destruction upon the enemies of the Empire. Following close behind the flagship of Darth Animus, several dozen other Jen'ari Empire ships dropped out of hyperspace. Numerous Vyrassu class Star Destroyers supported by Bane and Reaper Class Cruisers, as well as several Renegade frigates moving between the ships. Hundreds of starfighters were deployed from the First Fleet, as they moved to form up with the Eternal Fury as it drove headlong into the flank of Darth Cyron's fleet.

"Send word to my apprentices to take charge of the boarding parties. The moment we identify which ship belongs to Darth Cyron, I want them to lead the charge to secure and cripple the vessel."

There would be no mercy for traitors this day.

[Darth Aegis]

The Forsaken would come out of hyperspace, only several hundred kilometers away from The Eternal Fury. However, most ships in the space conflict would hardly be able to see Darth Aegis or his ship. Due to the black painted hull of The Forsaken, it almost perfectly camouflaged with the background of space. Scanners and radars of all ships in the conflict wouldn't pickup the Star Destroyer due to its reflec coating. The Forsaken was practically invisible as of now on the conflict.

​In the bridge of The Forsaken, Darth Aegis stood. His arms crossed, as he stared out into the conflict. There was an oddly comfortable feeling of knowing the enemy did not know you were there yet. But,the self-proclaimed Lord of Suffering was going to make sure they knew of The Forsaken's presence soon.

​Aegis would analyze the enemy fleet, attempting to logically figure out where the traitor would be.

He'd turn to a communications technician in the bridge on his right.

"Relay to Central Hangar Bay troops to build up a boarding party."

The technician would nod, getting to work on his microphone. Then, Aegis would turn back to the window of the bridge. He'd yell to the other technicians to fire the entire arsenal at a Star Destroyer clearly pumping out fighters at the Jen'ari fleet.

The arsenal of The Forsaken would barrage the Star Destroyer, wiping out most of its defenses and taking out its bridge. This would for sure show everyone in the conflict, the Forsaken was here.

 

[Xi Rell]

As the battle un-folded, Xi taken the chance to slip in-to the koridor she identifyed, to try and get closer to the enemy comand ship, the one she suspekted Darth Cyron wuld be on.

It vasnt easy. Even vith most of the enemy fokus on the front, there vas stil enogh smaler ships and fighters flying around, that she had to be extra-careful in flying, not to get to close to any of them. But, vith some tricky maneuveing, she did get vithin scaning range of the big enemy ship.

"I feel you, litle sneak..."

...sudenly come in-to her head. Xi jerked.

"Vhat...?!" she barked. "Did you say something, AI?"

NEGATIVE

Come the reply. Xi shaked her head, thinking she imagined it, and continued aproaching the enemy comand ship. But thru the Force, she culd sense... she vas being watched.

"Come, young one. Meet yor new master."

Xi's eyes widened.

"Cyron...?" she mutered to her-self.

"Damn it. He can sense me..." she thoght, face hardening.

"Your NOT my master!" she snarled.

A dark laugh come in-to her mind. "Not... yet. But I wil be, young one. You wil kneel at my feet. I hav fore-seen it."

Xi scowled hard, tryig to ignore the voice, and the powerful Force-sugestion it vas trying to in-print in-to her mind...

"Nnno. Mmmhhh..." using the Force to build a mental shild. She vas sukcesful, for the time being, as she culd feel the prezence geting frustrated. But it wuldnt last long.

She opened a wide-area comm, to evry ship in the Jen'ari fleet: "This is... Xi Rel... nnnggghh... I think i know vhere Cyron is. The... comand... comand ship... at the center of the back line. Hurry... hes... hes trying to... take over... my mind." she pushed out, in a strained voice.

"JOIN ME, OR DIE, YOUNG ONE." the voice boomed thru her mental-block, reverberating in her head.

"Never..." the Bladeborn woman groaned, as she started to lose conciusness. Cyron vas too powerful, for her to block out. A tractor-beam from the comand ship sudenly locked-on to her fighter, and started puling her in. She vas too dazed, to do anithing about it.

[Darth Rowe]

Rowe watched [member="Darth Animus"] and [member="Darth Aegis"] drop out of hyperspace in their respective capital ships and helped in the full scale assault. Rowe activated her comms. Lord Animus, Cyron is in the back of the pack, but to get to him we'll need to disable the Star Destroyer directly in front of his, it also includes his Sith leaders, we take them out, it's just Cyron. Rowe stopped sensing Cyron speak to [member="Xi Rell"] Rowe herself reached out with the force blocking Cyron's force communication with Xi to protect her. Rowe scanned the battle for Xi. Once Rowe located her, Rowe deflected the force coming from Cyron. That should handle that Rowe thought to herself. Rowe focused back on the major battle at hand and noticed an enemy Star Destroyer aimed right at the Black Widow but then watched the Eternal Fury intercept it. Rowe then ordered all guns to clear a path to the Nocturnal, Cyron's Sith leader Destroyer. Rowe opens her comms again. I want all Sith Troopers and available Sith ready for boarding parties. It will be time soon. This is to you [member="Jack Anderson"] [member="Darth Necrin"] [member="HK-51"] [member="Nyx Tempest"] if there is anyone else joining the boarding party, be ready to go when the command comes. Rowe shuts off her com and turns on heel. Admiral, you're in charge I'm joining the boarding party. The Admiral looks to Rowe and nods. Yes Mi'lady

Rowe had made her way to the Black Widow Hangar A-1 and started prepping a mass amount of imperial Sith troopers briefing them on the situation as several drop ships and troop carriers were being prepped for the assault.

​

 

[Xi Rell]

Xi culd feel another prezence, shilding her from Cyron. She rekognized it...

"Thank you, [member="Darth Rowe"] ." she sent the other woman a Force message.

But that vas only half the problem. The other half vas the tractor beam, that vas now steadyli puling her fighter in-to Cyron's ship. The Blade's Fury didnt have enogh engine power to brek free, so... she vas comited. She tryed to shoot out the tractor emiter, but the big ships shilds wer too tough for her fighters puny laser and ion canons to have a hope of geting thru.

"I guess you get yor wish, Cyron... for now." she thoght, as she watched the huge hangar of the enemy ship get closer and closer. She shut down the Blade's engines, there vas no point wasting fuel... she culdnt break free.

ALERT - HOSTILE TRACTOR FORCE EXCEDS THIS VESSELS ENGINE POWER

"Yea, tel me something i dont know..." the Bladeborn woman mutered, vith a sigh, as her fighter vas pulled in-to the massive ships hangar. She culd see a mass of enemy soldiers as a reception comite, and a... cloaked figure... just entering the hangar from behynd.

It vas time to meet the locals... if they didnt kill her on sight. But given vhat Cyron implyed... he wanted her alive.

[Eli-Mae Forrest]

Post 1

Nicole sat in the barracks waiting, it had only been a month or so since the loss of her best friend, ever since that day she had never stopped thinking about her friend who so bravely given his life for hers. It didn't make her feel any better that shortly after that fateful operation she had been called before [member="Darth Animus"], he commended her for the way she had taken charge of the squadron in the absence of their leader. He then proceeded to give her the first promotion of her military career as well as naming her squad leader giving her the code name Shadow Hawk. All of this crossed her mind as her earpiece crackled to life, it was the lieutenant, he ordered her and her men to man their fighters and prepare for a fight.

As she stood she slipped out of her night clothes, she then walked over to the closet opening it, she took a few seconds to look over her body, she had several flaws that she didn't like but she had come to terms with them over the past years, her eyes scanned her body and stopped on her midriff, she had a large scar from one of her first days in the academy, she was stabbed during a hand to hand training session by a boy who didn't want to be proven that he was less skilled than a girl, so she pulled a shank from his waist band and stabbed her, she dropped but not before judo flipping him, long story short he was executed for trying to kill her. All of these memories past through her mind as she reached for her flight suit, she slipped in to it with little tug to get it past her hips. Once it was over her shoulders she pulled the zipper up and grabbed her helmet.

With her suit on and her helmet in hand she took off down the cold corridors of the Titan, she very shortly reached the hangar and met with all of her men, she instructed them that their main target was the Capital ships, they were to disable the shield generators so their Star Destroyers could finish them off. Upon them being disabled they would land on board and help the boarding party secure the ship.

Once all of that was said she would climb into the cockpit of her fighter, she reached forward hitting the starter, as the engines hummed to life she smiled, she was in her element in the cockpit, she pulled the visor of her helmet over her face. She reached to her right and eased forward on the accelerator she lifted off of the deck and zoomed out of the hangar.

Once the squad was into open space Nicole noted just how intense the fighting was. There were blaster bolts flying everywhere, as the squad closed in on the first Capital ship Nicole spoke into her com saying "Alright you guys keep it close its gonna be hairy but we will get through it. Alright first Shield Generator coming up 9 o'clock." As she said this she veered towards the target, she began to fire her laser turrets. As soon as her targeting computer locked on she smiled and let loose a missile, as 4 missiles hit at the same time it blew up instantly and the squad moved to the next one not before saying "Shadow Hawk to Command first ship is yours"

 

[Jack Anderson]

Jack got the call from his master, be ready for a boarding action, that was easy, he was already there, his troops were in boarding pods already, as soon as the command was given the DDC Hotdrop would eject it's lethal cargo at whatever ship needed boarding, once again the fighting men and women of the 701st were equipped with boarding shotguns and shaped charges in order to get though bulkheads. Seeing a particularly thick cloud of fighters between him the target he raised Nova Wing on the comms again. "See that wing of interceptors? The karkers have no missiles, the Hotdrop is going to bunt thier edge, hide in the engine wash and get ready for a helluva fight, those little arse holes are going to shred any boarding parties from the other ships, so we're gonna kill them first.

As the wing formed up behind the the Hotdrop the engineers cycled the guns, recharged the shields and then dumped every watt of power they could find into the engines, launching the ship forward at an astronomical speed, well compared to another corvette, they were pulling off the speed of a bomber at best, but it was fast enough to get the attention of the interceptors who were either going to let this ship have a free shot at support vessels or engage on a less then favourable conditions. It seems the commander, eager to add something larger than a shuttle to his kills turned to engage, exactly what Jack wanted him to do, the guns on the Hotdrop opened up, scoring a couple kills, but the real damage came when the ARC-170s slipped out from the engine wash and had a perfect shooting gallery, about half the interceptors were lost as they were caught flatfooted, and the remainder were falling apart like a slow cooked nerf roast.

Jack went up on the fleet comms and throwing all radio etiquette to the wind said "Oi while you guys were drinking tea and eating cookies I made a clear path for boarding parties ya'll might wanna get off your arses and use it."

[Jen'ari Muse]

As Cyron's fleet fell apart from the constant fire of the Jen'ari Empire Imperial Armada, it opened up the defenses for the Jen'ari Empire to board the Nocturnal, Cyron's Sith leader star destroyer. A boarding party of Sith Troopers are loading up to board the Star Destroyer. The Dark Council orders the empire to continue the hunt and eradicate Cyron's Sith council.

\\ PHASE II //
BOARDING PARTY
Board the Nocturnal, kill Cyron's imperial troops and his 6 Sith Lord leaders.

​

 

[Darth Rowe]

Rowe boarded her shuttle and it quickly took off. From the second she was out of the hangar it was constant dodging laser fire and enemy fighters trying to take her and her squad out. The shuttle was at full speed. Rowe watched as 3 enemy fighters destroyed a troop carrier possibly killing 100-200 Sith troopers. Rowe swore under her breath anxious to get on the Nocturnal and kill that Sith council. Rowe kept feeling the shuttle shake as it was under constant attack. Her only hope was to make it to the Nocturnal alive. Rowe also hoped everyone else was making it alright. Then it happened. Rowe felt a very large shake then alarms went off in the shuttle. The pilot alerted Rowe they've been hit hard and are going to crash. Rowe reached out with the force holding the shuttle guiding it to the hangar as the engines shut down. As they got closer to the hangar enemy troops started firing RPG's at the shuttle, one hit the cockpit killing the pilot. Rowe let go of the shuttle. The shuttle begun to nose dive straight into the hangar crashing hard and sliding on the hangar killing numerous enemy troops. Rowe got up and ran to the cockpit. Using the force to enhance her abilities she leaped out through the RPG hole onto a hangar balcony. While in mid air she activated her lightsaber. Rowe landed and got on one knee quickly swinging her lightsaber cutting down two enemy imperial officers. Rowe stood up straight turning to the shuttle wreckage. Rowe used the force to pull the wreckage forward killing the last of the enemy troopers firing at her.

Rowe then quickly turned and ran across the balcony to the hangar command Booth. Once inside she went crazy with flurries of lightsaber swings letting out her anger moving in a blur. After 15 seconds Rowe stopped and looked around. She just killed 8 Imperial officers and 4 Imperial technicians. Rowe breathing heavy focused on the force to replenish her stamina and energy. She had a job to do, and she was going to do it or die trying. Rowe exited the Booth making her way down a hallway.

​

 

[Taru Cadera]

Kao Xusros had been pretty much inactive during the space battle that ensued outside of the Eternal Fury, the Flagship of his Master, Darth Animus. He had been charging his force powers and cleaning his training lightsaber, which for all purposes, looked and worked like a normal lightsaber from damage to a curved hilt, but was one not made by him. It also did not house his kyber crystal, as it currently hung on a chain around his neck. He got the boarding parties into their respective pods and made sure that the one on which he would be boarding from would be the first one to launch and land. Throughout all of this, Kao had an inkling that Scarlett was nearby, but he did not care much about that so he removed it from his thoughts. He boarded his pod, alongside a small unit, and prepared for launch, Even after launch, he remained a calm figure, but his internal emotions were in commotion and filled with thoughts of absolute hatred for the enemies of the glorious Jen'ari Empire.

As the pod doors opened into a hallway on the Nocturnal, Kao deftly stepped forwards. Awaiting him was a host of enemy troops, armed with various weapons. Shots were fired in his direction, and Kao deftly made them ricochet off of his training saber. He then beckoned for the rest of the boarding party to actually board. The troopers cascaded inside, and started shooting immediately at the entrenched foes. Kao waited for the moment when there would be the most amount of blaster bolts in air, and then Force Pushed them all into the general direction of the enemy. If there had not been any casualties on the enemy, then there surely were now. Kao and his men pushed the enemy back further and further into the ship, and it would not be long before the traitor Cryron's Sith leaders met up with Kao... Kao just hoped that he would have reinforcement by then...

[Xi Rell]

Meantime, Xi vas taken to the brig, deep in the bowls of the Nocturnal. She vasnt told much, and she didnt rezist, as there wer at least 6 troops around her, at all times, as wel as that robed figure... vhich turnd-out to be one of Darth Cyrons rogue Sith Lords. If it wer just the troops, Xi wuld have maked her move. If it wer just the Sith Lord, she wuld have also maked her move. But all of them together... it vas a no-win situation.

Siting on a simple bed, in the cell, behynd a force-field, Xi sudenly perked her head up, at the sound of klaxon alarms.

"Looks like you got biger problems then me now... you beter hope my allies kill you, before i get out of this cell, and brek your neck." Xi smirked at the rogue Sith Lord.

The man glared, then sudenly raized a hand, Force Pushing Xi in-to the wall of the cell. Her back hit the metal bulkhead vith a dull thud, and the back of her head banged on it. She seed a couple stars... but the pain only invigorated her.

"Keep it up, Bladeborn queen... your not so tough behynd that force-field, and yor litle swords." the man snarled, red eyes glaring at her.

Xi glared back, for a moment, then given him a sweetly vicius smile. "Lucky for you." In spite of his bluster, Xi culd see the fear in his eyes. Even among Sith, the Bladeborn had a reputation.

He scowled, about to add someting else, but one of the troops interupted, brifly lisening to a report over his helmet com-link: "My lord, we have reports of a enemy dark lord, moving thru Sektor 11, making way tovard the ship's core. Tentativly identifyed as [member="Darth Rowe"] . She is killing evryone in her path."

The Sith lord's face darkened. "Rowe? Good... I am glad it wil be me, who wil get rid of that pretentius queen. Then I shal gain favor, in Darth Cyron's eyes. Troops, keep a eye on our prizoner. I wil deal vith Rowe."

Xi's smirk vas teling: "You... wil deal vith Darth Rowe? You? Wel, i vas wrong about you... your not a coward. But your also not very smart, to take on a Darth, alone. She wil wipe the deck vith you!"

The Sith sneered. "I am stronger then you think... and killing her, wil be my own personal gift to Cyron! Vhen i deliver her head to him, I wil be elevated above the rest of the Council."

Vith that, he stomped out, puling his double-bladed saber, from his belt.

"Famous last vords..." Xi thoght to her-self, stil keeping her smirk.

***

Darth Rowe's progres thru the halway, vas sudenly interupted, by one of the wall-conduits exploding, right next to her. The Sith Lord used the Force to detonate it, distrakting her, as he rushed in. He leaped up, thru the air, landing a power-ful hammer kick to the woman's solar plexus, sending her flying backvard. Then he ingnited his double-bladed saber, twirling it in his hands, in a intrikate patern.

"If it isnt Darth Rowe, the pretentius one. I'm glad its me, who wil cleanse this galaxy of yor faul prezence!" he snarled, then raized his left hand, sending a Force Destruction bolt, tovard her. As the red bolt of pure Dark Side energy slowly traveled tovard the woman, it buckled and melted the walls of the halway, from its power.

Yet, he didnt aproach. Despyte haveing a double-bladed saber, saber combat vas not one of his strong points. But he vas strong, in the Force.

[Darth Aegis]

Aegis watched everyone begin boarding a particular ship. He'd nod, and quickly turn around. He'd march out of his bridge, and to the elevator. Aegis would take it to a the Main Central Hangar. He'd step out, where many sith troopers would be organized into rows.

"MEN! BOARD YOUR SHUTTLES, IT IS TIME TO SHOW OUR ENEMIES THERE IS NO WHERE WE WILL NOT GO FOR THE EMPIRE!"

The giant organization of troops would hoorah in a battlecry, as they were excited for a fight. They would all board several different shuttles, Lord Aegis getting on one. His would lead the assault, straight at the front of the shuttle transport line. The shuttles would take off, exiting the hangar and making a path for the Nocturnal's hangar. Suddenly, a shuttle behind Aegis' would be hit. Aegis would nod, and tell the pilot to pick up the speed. They'd go full speed ahead, maneuvering through ship fire.

"Crash us in there, like Darth Rowe. All shuttles, prepare for intentional crash." Aegis would communicate to his pilots.

Aegis' shuttle would fly through the hangar, slamming down into it's hard floor and into many enemy troops. A few more shuttles behind Aegis would follow, crashing as well. Enemy troops would surround the crashed shuttles, blasters aimed on them, hoping to kill any survivors of the crashes. There was an awkward moment of silence, as the crashed shuttles laid still and the enemies waited for any Jen'ari troops to come out.

Aegis would close his eyes and take a deep breath. He'd nod. Aegis would jump out of a hole on the shuttle from the crash. He'd force crush the shuttle, slamming it down on many enemy troops. He'd block blaster fire, and then throw his saber as their blasters cooled down. Aegis enjoyed every bit of satisfaction from his blade slicing through enemies.

 

[grammaticus]

Animus watched as the fractured remnants of Darth Cyron's fleet fell apart, Jen'ari warships pursuing and destroy those that became separated. The tactic had worked like a charm, he was glad to see. Three separate spear head assaults into a larger enemy fleet, risky but rewarding if you could destroy the enemies unity. Now, the Jen'ari fleet held void dominance. Animus sent word for his fleet to break into squadrons, with a single Star Destroyer supported by cruisers and frigates, and dispatched them to perform clean up operations. The enemy vessels would be boarded or destroyed, and those that surrendered would be given quick merciful deaths. Animus hadn't been around when Darth Cyron betrayed the Jen'ari Empire, but he had heard the stories of how powerful he was. Anyone who became his thrall could never be trusted again.

Turning, Animus made his way towards the hangar bay, three troop transports waiting with several squads of Grotthu Legionaries. The newly created soldiers stood at attention in double rows on either side of the troop transport, their white and red armor gleaming in the light of the hangar. Animus paid them no heed as he walked up the ramp of the waiting transport, the Legionaries marching up after him and taking their positions. Once all were aboard the troop transport lifted off and departed the Eternal Fury, the other transports falling into formation behind them. Moments later three squadrons of interceptors moved in to take up positions around the exposed transports. He had seen the other Jen'ari elements take heavy losses in their own boarding actions, he had no intention of following suit.

The troop transport came level with the Nocturnal and latched on to its side. Cutting beams shot from the bottom of the transport, creating a large hole in the vessel quickly sealed by a connecting tube. Without pause Animus jumped down the hatch that opened in the center of the troop transport, falling several feet before landing in the corridor of the Star Destroyer. He came up at once with both his lightsabers drawn, blocking blaster bolts from defending soldiers as he pushed towards them. behind him, Grotthu Legionaries dropped down, moving into firing positions and marching alongside Animus. In short order they had secured the entire passageway, with more Legionaries coming through to secure the area. He dispatched squads to secure all the lifts on this level, to try and choke off enemy troop movement.

Turning towards his apprentice [member="Kao Xusros"], Animus gestured for him to fall into step beside him. "This is Darth Animus, I have boarded the Nocturnal and am making my way towards the bridge."

Nyx padded down the corridor, she was on the cusp of becoming a Sith knight, this was the most important time for her development as a Sith, she spent most of her time alone meditating and practicing her force powers, she knew quite a few, most of them she had grown quite fond of, she knew most Siths didn't meditate, but when she did she focused on her passion above all else, her love for Vallory her hatred for the entire planet of Coruscant for it was the planet where she was born but also where she was taught that killing was wrong, in the end she had learned that killing was justified so long as it was a crime of rage or passion.

Nyx glanced out the window to her right, she saw as the huge capital ship's defenses were taken offline leaving it open for attack, as she saw this she rushed towards the hangar, she wore just her light combat armor, she left her mask back in her room, she had no need for it here in the vacuum of space. Moving quickly she reached the hangar in a matter of moments, she knew what she was to do, she was to take a shuttle from here to the ship with troopers at her back, once there they were to seize control of the ship and kill the commander.

She quickly took her spot on the shuttle, once on board she would be at ease, even through the dogfight happening outside. The ship made it safely to the Capital ship, Nyx stepped off and began to survey the damage, the smoldering wreckage of the shuttle that [member="Darth Rowe"], had taken. She began to follow the corpses and wreckage

The call for reinforcements had not gone unanswered, and Kao's Master, Darth Animus was the first to arrive. Kao immediately fell into step with his Master, so perfectly that it sounded as though there was only one person instead of two. Sure, there were the Sith troopers clearing out hallways and rooms, but otherwise they were mostly alone. They were nearing the bridge of the Nocturnal, when Kao decided to say while twirling the hilt of his training saber: "Master, I believe that the time has come for me to make my lightsaber. After these traitors are dealt with, of course..." With this said, Kao started to build up his energy for the fights ahead, both by enraging himself slightly and by refueling his stamina for Force usage. Once done so, he believed that he was ready for what would surely come next, and this time he would not be fully wrong.

Together they made their way to the bridge, with Kao stopping for a tiny bit more than a split second to turn the training saber on as in the hallway he had been twirling it and had been holding it backwards for the past minute. Not waiting for anyone, Kao immediately rushed at one of Cyron's Sith Leaders. He Force Pulled the opponent's hand to try and ensure a clean kill with no retaliation, but the enemy managed to sidestep out of the way at the last second and had only part of his cloak cut out. Angered at missing, and overwhelmed with his loyalty towards the Jen'ari Empire, Kao jumped over his opponent, slashed upwards and to the right, only stopping his swirl of attacks to parry and defend himself. He had caught the enemy off-guard, and there was no feasible way to surprise him again.

The main reason as to why Kao had been having an easy time in this fight was because he was fully convinced in what he was doing (his opponent had to deal with the fact that if they lose they will be totally destroyed, if they win then they survive to fight another day. Kao would lose only in the fact that he would have to battle again, or if he won, then everything would be good.{This being without either party dying}.) Also, his opponent with whom he was currently locked in battle was one of the newer additions to the traitorous leadership role, so his experience and skill was less than that of the other enemies...

Kao had gotten a few good cuts and slashes into his opponent, and had taken a few cuts and bruises himself, but he was enjoying the fight, and his passion soared. And when a Sith's passion soars, bad things happen to their enemies. Bad things like death...

Nicole took a deep breath as the signal was given for them to take the ship, Nicole smiled gently as she remembered the last time she was part of a boarding party, it had gone extremely well, since then she had along with her normal Z6 Riot control baton she had a brand new GHL-1B blaster rifle and duel R-1 blaster pistols. She normally didn't take them with her when she went on missions but she knew that today she would need them being as they were taking the ship.

She would circle around the ship taking out the last of the fighters before angling into the hangar, upon landing she directed half of her squad to land in a second hangar just 100 meters from there, she would quickly hop out of her fighter landing with a light thud. Upon landing she pulled her GHL-1B off her back, it was synced with her DNA so only she could use it. As she took it out she blasted several Chiss right in front of her. She would then continue forward slowly, she turned on her heels and moved down the corridor, towards the other hangar, her stomach tightened as she heard blaster fire ricocheting off the walls, she came around the corner only to see half of her squad pinned down. She went off, blasting 6 Chiss in a fit of rage before pulling her dual pistols and capping the rest.

"We move forward and link up with the rest of the boarding party"
