Blaster rounds ricocheted off the armor of the tank, sparks flying as the bolts flew away, some fizzling against the tank's mighty hull. His gunner turned and loaded another shell, the Droid brain of the tank also doing it's part. Meanwhile, Rolin was outside of the tank on the turret, manning the hastily-bolted on machine gun.
Bolts went by, zombies, Sith, and others still coming. Still coming. Guardian 4 had become a hotly contested area, concentrated Alliance forces had urged the Sith to attack their foes with renewed resolve- the only type that the Sith knew. Absolute, unyielding. The machine gun went dry again as the heat dissipated, venting as Rolin hurriedly reloaded the gun, placing another charge pack into it.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw it light up. A bright red beam. Not a blaster bolt.
A lightsaber.
A Sith Warrior screeched towards Locals Only, and came straight for the first target- Rolin. Rolin swiveled the gun in vain, but the Sith sliced the receiver, barely missing Rolin. Rolin and him were on top of the tank- and Rolin had no options left. He narrowed his eyes, screaming in pure hate as he rammed his shoulder into the Sith.
The Jedi always preached "love and tolerance" and other bullshit about the Sith, and not letting anger fuel themselves. But Rolin was pretty damn angry. And the Sith was gonna feel it. The Sith and Rolin went crashing down off the tank, Rolin's commander helmet and earpiece being ripped off in the ensuing struggle.
BOOM!!!
BOOM!!
BOOM!!!!!!
Both he and the Sith recoiled in pain as the shockwave and soundwave- even though they were not in the direct blast wave, was massively hard to bear to unprotected ears. He grit his teeth, pressing his palms to the duracrete below them. The Sith seized Rolin by the throat, and raised his lightsaber above his head to strike him down, wasting no time in their fight. He had to admire the brutal efficiency. Rolin wasn't able to see his eyes or what he looked like under his mask.
Shame.
He would've liked to have seen what his face looked like when he drew his sidearm and shot him twice in the knee. The Sith gave a yelp of pain, recoiling back and took a defensive stance to stop the rest of Rolin's shots. Rolin rolled his shoulders as the gun went empty, and threw it at the Sith. The Sith, not expecting such a fight, found himself getting hit in the face by a fast-moving sidearm, and turned his head slightly.
It gave Rolin enough time to draw his shovel from his belt, and swing it at him. The Sith brought his hand up to stop the swing, but Rolin, a cheap and dirty fighter, dropped the shovel into his other hand, and uppercut the Sith in the neck with it. The sharp blade tore through the flexible armor mesh at his neck, nicking what he assumed to be something important, causing the Sith to recoil back, holding his neck. The Sith pressed the fight still, and shoved Rolin to the ground with the force, causing him to scatter.
Standing over him, the Sith held his throat with one hand, and raised his lightsaber with the other. And chuckled.
That fucker chuckled.
Rolin looked up defiantly, spitting blood at the Sith's figure from the ground.
He closed his eyes as the Sith raised his weapon, ready to meet his end.
