Forge Ahead [ CIS Kamino Raid ]

Enemies: [member="Koda Fett"]

As she continued down the hallway it appears the bounty hunter she seen leave the battle had returned, probably really pissed, the familiar sound of the classic carbine sounding behind her. Though she could have used to the force doge such an attack, or deflect the round back at the attacker, but such an act would reveal her force sensitivity, no she would save that until it was necessary for now Kurenai would act and move like a regular human solider. As such she allowed the enemy blaster to hit her in the back, her armour, using the momentum of the hit to roll into the next corridor, taking cover from any more shots, 'Fuck that stung, his a good shot'.

This person would be a problem if she didn't get them out of the way before collecting the DNA, especially and Mando, and with the current veil around the complex thanks to Bane no one would be able to properly detect their fight. Taking a spent cartridge from her belt she used the force to bend the metal and jam it into the trigger of her repeating blaster, laying the gun down, making a stationary turret that continued to pour fire down the hallway.

Using this cover Kurenai draw her vibrio knife and pistol advancing down the hallway towards the Mando, intent on killing the man, or at least incapacitate him long enough to achieve her goal and get out. As her reaping blaster ran dry Kureani rounded the corner in a wide birth, skidding along the ground, attempting to lay several shots into the Mandos chest with her blaster pistol.

The orders came in so the battle group responded. Deck rumbling under his feet the Verpine felt the Lucerhulk and it's escorting Munificents drop out of warp. They were at long range from the enemy fleets. With orders already set up all Sko had to do was sit and watch as the hangers in front of the Lucerhulk spewed out Wasps and B-wings. Was always good to see that, once the fighters were clear of the ship the Lucer became one of the most dangerous threats on the battlefield and usually forced the enemy to respond. Nearly impossible to flank, covered in guns, and with extremely strong shields the ship was truly a match for most small fleets. Escorted by ships with their own heavy guns and fighter complements a battle group would be nearly impossible to beat. The ship was just to big to dispatch in a quick manner.

Fighters taking a attack array in front and below of the battle group they started going towards the enemy fleet. B-wings and attack Wasps were screened by a group of standard Wasps forming a wall in front of them. In front of those the point defense and Genie carrying Wasps formed their own wall. Each squadron was formed so that the leader was on the top and they divided into a downwards triangle. This created a trap for any ships that tried to engage them from the front. If they survived the initial missile bombardment they'd find themselves in a head on where an entire squadron could focus down their targets with heavy cannons. If they made it past that the second line would open up and then the third. The upwards V was ideal for engaging enemies when out numbered in a head on attack. Verpine made craft always packed the biggest cannons they could put on them making them superb anti-starfighter platforms since shields would be rapidly worn down by the high energy hits.

The Munificent's meanwhile had maneuvered into their positions the moment they'd come out of warp. Taking a diamond formation with the rear Munificent lower then the rest to allow a clear firing line they formed two groups of four ships each. One above and one below the Munificent. Once in positions the computers began receiving data and bringing their Summer heavy mass drivers to bear. With the fleet's eleven giant guns aimed at the enemy fleet they began firing. All guns focused on the nearest SD hoping to cause critical damage in two or three volleys.

Sko meanwhile was eyeing the scans on the enemy fleet. One of the SD's seemed to have an unusually high amount of energy building up. Flagging and sending it all allied ships involved in the operation he turned to the sensor operator. "Watch that vessel, if it begins turning towards up let me know. May have to play our hand early."

 

[Desmond C'artyom]

“Move the fleet, sway the ship's two hundred meters starboard to engage that lucrehulk, keep us in our wedge formation,” Desmond barked these orders angrily and his crew responded quickly.

This would mean he could only fire on Arlox’s fleet with one of the Conqueror class Star Destroyers, or he could fire on the lucrehulk with both. Desmond would choose the latter.

“Move both Victory IV’s out of the line of fire. Prepare the Wrath and Fury, single reactor ignition... “ Desmond ordered as he tapped the arms rest of his captain’s chair.

“Target sir?” One of the ensigns asked stupidly and Desmond’s brow quirked slightly in irritation.

“The Lucrehulk fool! Fire both Proton beam cannons at that damned ship!” Desmond shouted in frustration.

It was slow moving and big, so Desmond doubted it would be able to dodge one conqueror blast, let alone two. The ship's center axis began to glow a powerful emerald hue. Shields were drained from the Wrath and Fury to fuel the weapons power. The beam lit up in the center of the concave dish, adding to the numerous stars that dotted the void of space. Then they both fired.

Great arching green beams of plasma raced out of the dual dishes and headed straight for Sko’saht’s lucrehulk. Desmond felt the pulse of the ship as the beam cannon fired and smiled delightedly. It was a beautiful ode to these ships destructive power that they had managed to destroy a Sikune class ship in one blow. Now Desmond merely had to wait as the enemy vessels approached, hopefully diverting their attention to face the new threat that was him.

Aedan smirked and snapped his fingers suddenly spreading his arms wide as he let loose a bark of wild laughter watching as the holomap before him suddenly flashed reformatting itself and refreshing its view as the remainder of the Blood Fleet jumped into the system filling the area around his beachhead force with its friends. He kept laughing as the Aurora-class siege destroyers moved into position and started to fire their long range weaponary the Shield-class cruisers he had moving into position around and in front of his fleet activating their umbrella shield generators creating a protective barrier for the whole of the fleet. He brought his hands forward and smirked whispering softly. "And they shall block out the stars they are so numerous." At this the fighter control operator sent the word for all of his fighters to launch filling space around his fleet with what could be called a true hodge podge of fighters ranging from Republic ones to Aedan's personal creations and everywhere in between. All of them forming up behind the umbrella shield as his eyes flicked towards his opponent it appeared Arlox had already engaged the smaller force his target was the biggest ship out there and its defensive force. Smirking savagely he sent a quick shouted order to the fire control operator's of his fleet. "I WANT ALL LONG RANGED WEAPONARY TARGETED ON THAT SSD! Also get a targeting solution on it from one of our allies and fire missiles." With a nod the fire control operator got to work setting up with the help of a more advanced allied forces ship a firing solution for the SSD sending it to the rest of the fleet before giving them the all clear to fire. Aedan watched with a savage smirk as the space before his ship filled with missiles and long range weapons fire as every ship in the Blood Fleet almost literally released hell on his chosen target.

He turned and nodded to the fighter control operator who sent a quick word to all superiority fighters that they were clear to go hunting and almost instantly after that a mass of fighters broke off from the cloud hurtling towards where the enemy fighters waited. Aedan closed his eyes and slowly moved to sit cross legged as he meditated drawing upon the use of Battle Meditation for this battle sending it towards his fighter pilots knowing that they would need it where they were going.

​

​

​

Kyrel could feel something odd about Tmoxin the moment he saw her. He, of course, walked around all the hustle and bustle that was taking place in the lab, cargo getting lugged and droid models were everywhere, this had him curious for the most part. He, of course, was no stranger to the business of labs, but this seemed strange to him that caused him to slightly raise an eyebrow as he followed along, following her replies with his own Core World thick accent. "I am very aware of that Tmoxin. I have business of my own and time is short." He then was approached by a clone stormtrooper wearing a hat that practically irritated Kyrel and was considering on destroying it quickly. Nonetheless what did make his hair stand up was how he said that an attack by the Confederacy of Independent systems was underway. 'So an attack is happening is that so' He thought to himself looking back at Tmoxin wondering if that was the reason for being in a hurry.​

​

As she chastised the droid, he didn't reveal what he had heard from the droid just yet, as he wanted to play her game a little further until dealing with her for this outrage as of course he knew her ties to the CIS, and attacking an Imperial Holdout was an act of war, an ultimate betrayal and so he would have no choice to take care of his servant.. He then thought of Varas. What would she think? Would she even care at all about her Mother's death? Then again Tmoxin was never a mother anyways and so if it came down to it, he wouldn't say a thing to his daughter. ​

​

He followed her slowly throughout the room, telling by her rage and then the sudden happiness in her steps signaled that something was up. Still he kept up the charade nodding at her words at first. When she mentioned taking him to a more private area not to mention mentioning concern for his daughter. He gave her a look for a moment and then spoke in a cold tone, raising his hand for the moment using the Force to open a shutter he revealed the battle was in full swing, the roar of TIE Fighters and Vulture Droids clung to the stormy skies, blasts of turbolaser fire both Green and red filled the skies. "You really think you can trick me Tmoxin... Did you not think I would know about your involvement with the CIS. You dare attack an Imperial Holdout.. I should execute you right now." ​

​

With a snap-hiss his lightsaber activated, the red blade coming to life as he kept the blade to his side, and was about to move when something made him froze making him say in surprise. "I-I sense something I haven't felt since..." He could feel it.. It was the presence of one of his own and then with a booming mechanical sound, a sound almost like his own when he was a monstrosity. In fact, the individual standing there looked too familiar despite the appearance of a monster. It all came back to him slowly it was none other then Herodias Ren which he had recognized, during the visit of Sieger Ren and when he was going through intense pain at the hands of the Praetorian Guards. ​

​

Kyrel looked at him, his eyes flashed yellow before retreating to the dark orbs. He looked at Tmoxin only for a moment but kept his eyes on the man. Saying in a surprised but a tone that nonetheless did not sound pleased to see him said. "Well then... It seems I will be bringing back a Traitor to the Supreme Leader as well. Brother Herodias you will come with me quietly back to First Order Space, By the Supreme Leader's will, or else I will eliminate you." He then gave a look at Tmoxin raising his saber as if battle would soon happen in mere seconds before speaking. "And you will not go unpunished for attacking an Imperial world. You will be dealt with too as I find it far too easy to kill you." He was prepared of course, but he sensed more Force Signatures coming. Time was short and so it was either fight or die because he will not let his mission with dealing with his servant, and bringing back a traitor go quietly. ​

[Theme]​

The battle within Tipoca City raged on violently. The local garrison were holding their ground well enough, but progress was slowing in terms of driving back the enemy. That could no longer be allowed to persist. A large group of Battle Droids had rushed blindly into a trap as they entered one of the cloning facility's darkened corridors. A door sealed behind them, preventing them from turning back. The Droid Commander in charge of the group spoke nervously as he gazed at the utter darkness ahead of them. "I...I can't see anything! Anyone got a light?", he said, a hint of fear in his mechanical voice. From the darkness came a reply. "I have."

A red glow suddenly appeared at the end of the corridor as the Grand Inquisitor ignited his red-bladed lightsaber. The droids took up a defensive position, and opened fire. Morcus strode forth at a steady walking pace, effortlessly deflecting the oncoming blaster bolts towards those firing them, swiftly cutting down several of their number. Another droid bravely charged forward, only to be flung up into the ceiling by the Grand Inquisitor with the force before being quickly cut in half with one quick strike of the Baron's lightsaber blade, it's severed chassis falling to the ground with a loud thump.

One frightened B1 unit quickly dropped his weapon and turned around, trying desperately to pry open the door that would enable their escape to little avail, and soon began pounding on it with his hands. "Someone! Anyone! SAVE US!", he shouted, before shaking in fear. The droid turned around, only to witness the rest of his comrades destroyed mechanical forms upon the floor, and the oncoming lightsaber blade which was swiftly impaled through him.

​Fett's trio of bolts hit their target, causing a searing pain through her but not enough to take her down. Must be the armour he figured, nothing else would keep her going. As he remained at the edge of the corridor, half concealed by it's corner, bolts came back towards him in a timely fashion at a high-rate of fire, too high in fact to step out, he was successfully pinned down for the moment. Although, over the sounds of blaster fire, more came in addition to closing in footsteps. Even if those steps were drowned out by the blaster fire, the enclosing blaster fire was definitely notable. She was coming, and she was coming in fast.

To survive this long you never made stupid decisions. A Bounty Hunter's best tool in fact was Cunning and Sound Judgement. Both of which were about to play a key role. In a hasty fashion, a holographic still of Koda Fett was in the position of where he once stood. When one could afford such high-tech, they often made use of it. As the Energy Vampire slid around the corner, the bolts entered the hologram, forcing it to fall over and appear incapacitated it as if it were a real person. Meanwhile, amidst her probable confusion, Fett stepped out from across the hall. The hallway had many divots that one could hide in. With the same pinpoint accuracy, more shots were fired in her direction in an attempt to either kill or incapacitate her, yet this time there was hardly a distance between them. Surely someone such as herself would have a bounty on her head somewhere.

[Mitth'rae'leios]

Nothing replaced the value of pacing on the subject of combat. As soon as the alert came over the communications, an alert that the Chiss had trained himself for, he rose from his chair in his quarters and swiftly took his position on the bridge. His arrival, however, did not warrant an immediate response. Rather, as he stood and observed the various signals and requests coming across the comms, the Chiss poised himself to contemplate his next move.

Nothing was ever as simple as the surface it presented. Even in a situation such as this.

Even still, contrary to delaying his entry into the battle to protect the capital, the Chiss brought his arms before him in a contemplative posture and glanced silently over to the control deck. It didn't take long for the officer there to catch his eye, the Chiss to nod and the Captain to move briskly to the forward operators and issue the command to depart into hyperspace.

"Captain, bring this destroyer out of hyperspace first. I want the enemy to see and acknowledge us before the rest of the fleet arrives." He breathed and turned his attention back to the viewport, his posture tightening as he stroked his curled forefinger across the tip of his chin. Drawing in a breath, he observed the composition of his fleet in the corner of his eye before watching the Captain move to the communications deck.

In a matter of moments the tell tale signs of hyperspace encompassed the viewport and ahead of plan they arrived in Kamino's orbital space just in time to see the numerous ships engaged in a heated battle over the watery world below.

"Very good, Captain," he mused as he took a leisurely walk towards the controls. Stopping behind the crew operating the direct operations, the Chiss leaned forward and pressed the comm channel to the weapons deck of the ship. "Lieutenant, prepare the weapons systems for combat but leave them on stand by. I want to see what the enemy does before we make our move."

Leaning back away from the comm, the Chiss took a few steps back and looked to the Captain, his expression cold and intent as he drew in another slow breath.

"Bring all shields online and prepare for enemy assault. I have no doubt the enemy will anticipate reinforcements." It was then, as he spoke, that the rest of the Chiss' fleet dropped out of hyperspace in a formation identical to a narrow W. It was the placement of said ships that made for a particularly curious formation. With the Pellaeon in the center of the formation, the Interdictors positioned in the middle of each wing flanked by the variety of warships designated for their capabilities.

"Assess the damage and report all peculiarities," he breathed slowly despite the gravity of the situation before him. "Bring the Hammerheads to the underside of the Interdictors and the Lancers to a similar position beneath this ship and the Imperial II's. I want our openings accounted for and the fighter squadrons prepped for launch."

His commands issued, the Chiss took to silence and moved to a comfortable position at the fore of the bridge. Lowering his arms from his chest and clasping them behind his back, he quietly observed the motions of his ships. It was a long lived silence, but nothing was ever quiet about the Chiss. It was apparent, such, that the moment the Pellaeon's weapons alarms came online the Chiss turned his gaze to the command deck.

"Open fire on the closest warships, or the Lucrehulk, with the long range batteries," an order exhaled on the notion that accuracy would be traded for a potential shake in the enemy morale. "None of our other vessels are to fire until they are approached in threatening range, their forward shields will prove their effect for now."

Orders given, the forward turbolaser batteries began to open fire on the Lucrehulk if only to draw away their attention.

The game had begun.

Enemies: [member="Koda Fett"]

He blaster shoot hit their mark, and most people would have assumed the target was dealt with, but Kurnai had faced thousands of tricky and cunning people over the years, at least a hundred of those being Mandaloirans, she knew darn well is would take more than that to kill one, even if she did hit the actual person. Combined with the shift in her opponent’s life force it did not take her more than a second to become aware of their new position, meaning that she was exposed to another attack. '

Continuing her slide Kurenai took cover into one on the nook dotted throughout the hallways as another set of rounds whizzed by her head, clipping her shoulder as she went, though giving her enough time to eye the Mando more fully. His armour was battered, worn but still had a definite shade to it that borough back a flood of memories of a certain bounty hunter from long ago, a marvel for his time, 'He he, figures, I already fought a Darth Vader wannabe, why not a Boba Fett one as well, though this guy seems much more skilled'.

Behind cover Kurenai cocked her pistol as she contemplated what to do next, perhaps if this person was a mercenary he could be swayed with enough credits, and hell had she accumulated a large sum of cash over the year. "I must say, you are a very skill person mister Mandalorian, that armour suits you very well, may I ask how much the Galactic Empire is paying you to defend their complex, perhaps we can come to some sort of arrangement". While she talked her eyes also scanned the surrounding area, though they were close she did not think getting close enough to engage in CQC wound be possible, not without taking a serious wound or using the force.

 

[Lemon]

Kurenai had made an attempt at a bargain, offering Fett a price in exchange of her life or so it seemed. Although any self-respected bounty hunter or mercenary for that matter wouldn't accept such a thing, the only thing that mattered in this trade was honour and one's own code of conduct no matter how shady. Though here and now an Imperial Contract hung within the balance, and that was hardly something to scoff at. In this trade you never let anything get personal, for when you do you die, but that DNA she was after was his and he could not let her have it.

Fett remained leaning around the corner after he fired his shots to watch one strike it's target in the shoulder. A reply to her words was promptly made as a wrist rocket was fired upon her location, but not at the target or an attempt to hit her solely. Instead, it was aimed towards the ground right beneath her feet, there wasn't much to hide behind in these divots and a rocket would certainly do the trick. She was tough, but how tough? He wasn't betting on this killing her, let's just hope it takes her out for now at the very least.

[Arlox]

Arlox watched as he saw his Sikune-Class Battleships continue their barrage of ion cannons at the Victory IV until the shields went down, and stopped their fire. Arlox grinned after seeing the shields go down and before he could order for the bombers to go in, he got a report of one of the Conquerors spiking up once again, it's preparing that deadly beam again... Arlox guessed from the direction it's looking at, it's aiming straight at the right Sikune-Class Battleship. Arlox said "Order the right Sikune-Class Battleship to fire a full conjoined firing of Ion cannons at it's left." some were questionable of his orders but still followed it, the Sikune-Class Battleship started to shift it's firing platforms to the ordered direction and started to fire, the force of the conjoined firing started to force it back tens of meters, in an attempt to dodge the proton beam cannon. "Order the left Sikune-Class Battleship to stay behind the left Heavy Cruiser, but keep it's distance so it can't be targeted by enemy Starfighters, order the same for the right Sikune-Class Battleship but to the right Heavy Cruiser."

The Sikune-Class Battleships then started to move towards their ordered spots, meanwhile the Starfighters were engaging the enemies Starfighters. Arlox then set up a comlink to all of his Jackal Interceptors and Grunt Starfighters, giving the order. "You have permission to use the concussion missiles on the Starfighters, wipe them out quickly and then focus on defending the Heavy Cruisers, get the Star Destroyers attention and keep the heat off the Heavy Cruisers." He then opened up a comlink to the captains of the two Heavy Cruisers. "Shoot at the enemy Starfighters, but when they're numbers are significantly down start firing back at the Tyrant Star Destroyers with the turbolasers, but fire your long-range turbolasers at the Victory IV with the shields down."

Arlox received the report that his Heavy Cruisers are undergoing damage since their shields didn't last very long, especially because of the long-range turbolasers and most of Arlox's hunter bombers were destroyed because of the numerous fire from the Tyrant Star Destroyers. "Not bad, but they're not my only plan, remaining Hunter Bombers... keep the Tyrant Star Destroyer's attention, while the Victory Star Destroyers are focused on the Heavy Cruisers..." he then opened up a hololink to 25 Jackal Interceptors. "Break out of your battle with the enemy starfighters, and aim straight for the Victory Star Destroyer, the one with their shields down, deal some damage but make sure the damage is substantial, use your self-destruct mechanism on the enemy ship if you have to." and with that, 25 Jackal Interceptors suddenly went out of the battle between the enemy starfighters and started to head straight for the Victory IV.

[Tmoxin Temi]

The situation inside Morpho was quickly deteriorating, no thanks to the BX with the rodeo hat. From an open shutter, Kyrel revealed the unusual sight of a dogfight directly in the skies above the domed building, lightning illuminating the sight of CIS and Empire ships chasing each other. Yet the Master of Ren with his new human form was not the only one who’d recently transformed.

The Mandragora ceremony on Ryloth had given her a wealth of new powers, and if push came to shove, she’d use them on Kyrel. In fact, Tmoxin would relish it.

“I should execute you right now."

“Ha! Do you know how many times I’ve heard that in my life, and still I stand before you? You underestimate me, Kyrel. A pretty redhead with freckles poses no threat, right?” He would see her eyes turn a sudden amber with rage, her composure leaking like a nuclear facility breach, the toxic radiation about to spill out of her. The deep brown irises returned, but like any darksider would, Tmoxin use the spiraling situation to her advantage, embracing the cacophony and disruption.

She gave him a feral smile as he ignited his blade. A trickle of blood ran from one tear duct and down the side of her nose.

The sight of the one Kyrel called Brother Herodias provided enough of a distraction that Tmoxin turned her palm over, and a whoosh of fire shot up in a wisp. The long-sleeved, black executive dress she’d worn had covered her fresh tattoos, but as she rolled up the sleeve gracing the hand which held the fireball, both men would be able to see the brand, a black intricate pattern which had been seared into her skin, courtesy of the Doashim spirit.

“You’re not the only one with healing scars, Master."

Sko'saht turned his attention to the new force that came out of warp on his rear right side. That wasn't good, the forces protecting the shield gate he was supposed to be engaging were to his front and all of his starfighters were committed to engaging those. Then his upper Munificents started getting hit. As he began to issue orders he was quite pleased to see the commander of the lower Munificent group had already done a hard turn into the new force and their long range guns had begun to open up. "Get the top group to start pulling back. I want the ones currently being targeted to get below the group and take cover behind the Lucer if they keep firing. All vessels open fire on the Interdictors. Also get our fighters turned around."

The guns opened up in a rather fierce barrage of long rage fire. With four Summer heavy mass driver's per Interdictor, twelve shots each, and sixteen Lusankya super-heavy turbolaser's firing on the two small vessels they would be quickly eliminated or forced to withdraw behind the cover of the Star Destroyers. Of course that was just the Munificents, the Lucerhulk sported enough firepower to take on a small fleet by itself. These guns had their own target, the escorting Turbulent Destroyers would come under a bombardment of twelve Toprawa cannons. The Summer's on the Lucer meanwhile focused on the bridge of the Pellaeon class hoping to cause sensor disruption as the shields in front of the sensor systems got hit. Heavy long range firepower was something that this fleet was focused on and the enemy commander had made the critical mistake of engaging the SJO battlegroup at the range where the incredible firepower could be put to best effect. In addition the fighters that the SJO were known for had turned and began a mad dash back to cover their carrier. They would likely manage to get to the front of the battle group and reform before the enemy fleet had disgorged all it's starfighters and had them formed ready for combat.

 

[Kyrel Ren]

Kyrel stood his ground surrounded now by enemies, and more on the way he had to act quickly of course. Raising his saber he kept his eyes on Tmoxin, but was slightly wary of Herodias. He had no idea what the former Ren would do, but he doubted that it would be anything good. That moment she gave him almost a feral look, blood dripping slowly on her face. Was he intimidated no not in the slightest, the very power that was wielded by her seemed to be new, as he took a step back to save himself raising his saber in defense?

The way that she spoke had carried a mocking tone. She revealed numerous tattoos adorning her flesh to which Kyrel raised an eyebrow too. Whatever power she possessed it was something that Kyrel had not foreseen, but no matter he would still take her out and capture her, kill her if need be. The way that she said Master was as if to mock him.

Kyrel started to approach her slowly at first, not letting his guard down he said to her, his yellow eyes showing more due to the power that was coming from his emotions and his saber. "If you think you can win against me. You are mistaken."

Then he made the first move, moving quickly raising his blade for a downwards slash attempting to catch her off guard, and perhaps maim her in the process. No words needed to be spoken now as the battle between the two was now in full swing.

[Kurenai Yumi]

Location: Lower levels of Research Facility
Objective: engage and remove the Mando
Enemies: [member="Koda Fett"]

Silence engulfed the hallway for a moment, but if Kurenai knew anything about Mando’s is was that they were honourable, so she did not expect the man to have a change of heart, not she was just trying to buy time to plan, one that did not involve any over display of power. Whatever the case she needed to act and when the familiar sound of a rocket being fire sounded she concluded it was time to drop the act, she had wasted too much time with this nuisance already, time to go all in.

As the rocket careened towards her location Kurenai rolled out for cover, using the force to change is direction upwards, making the rocket zoom past her and down the corridor, in turn she activated a thermal detonator, rolling the device in the direction of Kodas hiding hole in attempts to force him out as well. "Come out and play 'boy' ".

 

[Lemon]

The Bounty Hunter's rocket that came from his wrist was magically diverted as Kurenai stepped out from cover. Forcing the rocket over her head and into whatever may be behind her. At least he now knew that she was force-sensitive, though to what degree was entirely unknown. Regardless of the fact, caution was to be taken with a force user of unknown capabilities. Yet still, Fett was confident he could take her, after all she wouldn't be the first Jedi, Sith or non-aligned user that he'd taken down for that matter. He could get in close, she didn't seem to have a Lightsaber. Surely his size compared to hers and armour would be enough to brutally dominate her in that instance, especially with the addition of Crushgaunts.

As the CIS member stepped out from cover, Fett's hand made it's way back towards the carbine, but even before then he was firing at her. An easy target to hit, especially considering she decided to roll a thermal detonator towards him. If she wasn't incapacitated by the shots sent her way before the thermal detonator was primed, Koda would make his way towards her with the carbine raised ready to take her away, sell her off to the Empire as a prisoner, though that didn't seem likely.

​If the thermal detonator made it towards him a quick dart to his left would of been made with the help of his jetpack, moving across the hallway and escaping it's blast radius to which he would be firing blaster bolts in threes at her the entire time. She was crafty, but how long until she ran out of tricks in that bag.

[BX-25233]

Location: Kamino
Allies: CIS and co
Enemies: GE and co
Objective: run, Hope the CIS don't charge him for cowardice

BX-25233 realised his mistake too late and his shard could feel the anger [member="Tmoxin Temi"] had due to his mistake and before the poor commando droid could fix his mistake the Ren had called her bluff and there was clearly a fight brewing. The droid could not do much against the lightsaber wielder as his only weapon that could be used against a lightsaber was a tomohawk he was gifted that he had no practice with. One thing BX-25233 knew was that if he fought [member="Kyrel Ren"] or if Tmoxin lost to the ren was that BX-25233 would be sliced to pieces and is Tmoxin won she would probably turn BX-25233 into scrap for making her mission fail. So Bx-25233 did the only thing he could do and that was run. He wasn't sure where he was running to but he might bump into GE forces or CIS forces or somehow not run into anyone and just keep running away for the entire battle or somehow run around kamino and get behind the Ren but only time would tell what happens.

 

[Dalton Kenway]

Objectives: Cripple the cloning facility
Location: Tipoca City, Kamino
Allies: CIS in area

The CIS has certainly let the Empire know they were here for business. There was enough show and spectacle above and on ground in the aquatic raised Tipoca City to give Dalton Kenway the chance he needed. Blaster fire could be heard echoing around the level he was on, so danger wasn’t far away. It never was.

In the bowels of the cloning facility, small doors were being breached to see where they led. Dalton swung his E-11D rifle around as a trooper took the circuitry and blasted it, sending a shower of sparks up and a jet of smoke into the air. As soon as it opened, he ran inside with the trooper. A communications hub; relaying closed circuit feeds to ground support manned by clones themselves.

”Freeze, you bloody bastards!”

Dalton swung to the command console in the ivory room.

”Freeze!”

A female officer had blaster in hand; not for long. The bolt from the E-11D knocked it out and to the ground.

The trooper raised his and moved up, pushing her back at blaster point away from the consol. Dalton looked on at the clones, seemingly unaware of their surroundings and simply relaying CCTV feed.

He moved to the console, aimed and fired two bolts into it. Another fizz and spark and small bang, and the feed died from this particular hub. The clones stayed silent, and he could see they were effectively plugged into the mainframe by the neck; no feed meant no operation.

”Come on, keep going – take out what you can!”

It would be a small disadvantage to those watching certain areas of the facility, so it was time to head out and find another to buy the CIS forces time both on ground and in the air.

"Energy surges, BRACE, BRACE, BRACE." One of the sensor operators came over the com system throughout the ship. Before Sko could get a good hold of the chair he was sitting in the ship lurched, rocked, went black, and was filled with the wailing of alarms. Red emergency lighting flashed informing the bridge crew of critical damage. Viewscreen flickering back to life as power returned to the ship Sko saw just how bad the damage was. The right arm of the Lucer had half of it blown off. Debris filled the open part of the Lucer and the melted front half was spinning wildly out into space clearly devoid of all life. What remained of the right base wasn't fairing much better. Damage reports began to rush in, fire fighting droids had started battling the inferno that raged. Quickly grabbing up his datapad he passed down an emergency order. Vent any compartment that had a fire burning. The rear of the hanger deck was filled with fuel and munitions that would detonate if any flames reached them with the state the Lucer was in.

Looking over the diagram of the ship showing active systems and comparing them to the sensor data that came in on the shots that hit his ship it started to make sense. The two giant beam lasers had been only partly absorbed by the cap drains. Such large blasts hitting at almost the exact same moment had overloaded the Hijarna stone inlays and while one blast could be absorbed by the shields two had overwhelmed and then overloaded the starboard shield generators. As tough as the Lucerhulk a several hundred meter wide hole had been created in the front right portion and extended back. With over a fourth of his vessel vaporized or in pieces he didn't have many options. "Begin charging the hyperdrive. Inform the fighter squadrons we will be withdrawing to our original staging position and any critically damaged craft are to retreat to there. Also inform the Admiral that the Munificents and starfighter complement will be staying in system under his command."

 

[Kurenai Yumi]

As the carbine sounded off again Kurenai quickly brought up her knife using the small blade to block and ricochet the shots away from her person, not as good as a light saber, but she was saving that for when it was needed, besides she preferred the feel of a combat knife anyways. As the thermal detonator rolled closer to her target she used a small force push to send it closer, while continuing to duck a weave down the hallway, once again opening fire once more with her side arm as she kept advancing towards Koda.

She cursed slightly to herself as the man activated his jet pack, evading the blast range of her detonator, 'This guy is tricky to catch, I better stop playing around'. At that moment, she put both arms forward, using the force to crush the supports of the hall way behind Koda, bending the durasteel walls inward and blocking off any escape, proceeding to then launch into a force dash quickly attempting to close the distance between the two and deliver a 'close line' to said Mando.
