Heralds (Silver Jedi/Ask)

[Jsc]

Lakeview Silver Jedi Temple
Divide & Conquer

The next few hours saw the Jedi Library of Shri-Tal transform from a once blue dawn into a brilliant red firestorm of activity. Students running here, phones being answered there, red flashes of light on every tiny computer screen, and massive blue holograms being projected into every open space imaginable. The Jedi Temple had done it all. Braskan and her remarkable Silver staff had done it again. They were accomplishing the impossible.

~ "Then try it again. Emma get me line one and tell Kerr not to bring those supplies any further south..."

~ "We have more incoming craft onto lane one down by the borderlands..."

~ "Seven units have reported in ma'am. Their commander is requesting reinforcements be sent to..."

~ "Torr. Come in Torr. This is Temple Command. Repeat. Come in. This is Temple Command..."

Madness. It was as if it was all happening at once. Which, well, was probably because it was all happening at once. The Jedi Library had become a hub of communications for distress-signals and radio frequencies from all over the planet. More and more students were being diverted to rescue-and-relief efforts that even the hallways outside the chamber were teeming with computers and activity. Remarkably, even the local militias were requesting Jedi support in key places planetside and beyond. Emma almost completely lost track of time, and space too. So much was the hurry that surrounded her. It was so completely overwhelming that she had to take a moment to get away. Just put down the phone and shuffle to the door.

Leaving her duties to another student Emma Prinn escaped the hustle and took a moment to clear her head outside. A moment that should have been filled with clean air and finally a fresh breath of peace amid the storm. Alas, only the sights, and sounds, and smells of a terrible war greeted her outside in the summer's air. You could almost see the ship's overhead. Bickering and blasting for control of the skies. It was terrifying, wonderous, and beautiful all the same. She could almost cry and shed a single tear.

"Emma? What are you doing girl? Now is not the time for loitering about? Good heavens. Just look at that view. Force help us."

"Oh. I'm sorry Master Fargan. I was just taking a break from the phones. I'll get right back to it. I promise? I..."

"Nonsense girl. You look ravished. Simply drowned. Oh no no no. Go down to the cafe and get yourself cleaned up. The combat volunteers have already left the planet to assist the Fleet and those phones aren't going anywhere soon. No. You won't do anyone any good out here now. I only meant to find you away from the spectacle as it is. It's not safe out here near the windows anyway. ...Quickly now. Get back inside girl."

"Yes Master. I... Ugh. Yes. ...Thank you."

Emma tossed her tears aside and stepped back inside the silver halls. Master Fargan closed the balcony doors behind her and locking them shut against the burning wind. It had been some hours since the fighting started nearby and it was only showing signs of getting worse.

Much much worse, indeed.

[Camellia Swift]

[member="San-Ji"]

Well, Camellia got what she wanted. As she stared at the projection being created live through their sensor feeds, and vastly more accurate she hoped as a result of the battle analysis computer's input, the CEO of Rendili Stardrive found herself wondering if managing to divert two more of the enemy's warships was a decent enough feat. In all honesty she had hoped they would send more ships toward them all things considered. After all, they couldn't intend to board and gain a foothold on the station when they had to fight their way through so much counter fire from all five stations in the defensive net with just two ships taking the spearhead.

Whatever the enemy commander's thinking was, Camellia kept her eyes focused on the battle plan being project as it changed somewhat widening the angle of the Hammerhead Cruisers turn arc so that they came around more behind the invader's fleet and herded them into the stations heavy laser cannons. So it appeared as if the BAC was truly adapting to the changes on the battlefield from what it could gather from the sensor feeds from everything linked to it. Now Camellia found herself wondering how much more accurate and effective the technology could be when it was programmed properly for specific systems and it was hooked up to a vessel designed specifically to provide it with those sensor links it needed.

Perhaps given an advanced enough communication system, sensor suite, and vast enough satellite array with links to the Silver Jedi's ships it could even direct an entire system's defenses automatically upon detecting incursion before anyone else would normally know what was happening, and do so from anywhere in the system as it sent courses and targets to the reaction forces.

Such grand dreams would have to wait though. This was the prototype's test run. And the operation time started now. Camellia couldn't help but smile as the timer hit zero, and the Hammerhead Cruisers having made their trek outbound swung in their arc to come back and barrel towards the enemy fleet above to their left and behind, aiming to shove as many of the invaders warships towards the Bavos and Firestar stations or risk being singled out by the six Rendili Frigates alone. For those on the far right of the enemy formation safe from that assault a different threat would come. Thirty of the Honorable Class Elite starfighters would fly toward them and their own fighter escorts, looking to spearhead the path for the RAET dropships carrying the Rendili Security teams and Elite Battlemaster commando squads that were going to attempt to take control of the enemy ships on that end of the battlefield.

Hopefully they'd have a foothold in the flagship's hanger by the time any jedi could come and support them. Camellia wondered if she ought to be more annoying on the comms soon. . . .

 

[Anastasia Rade]

Objective: Fight Giants

As Ana walked along the ground began to shake which caused the young woman to lose some of her balance. Reaching for a tree to steady herself Ana looked up to see the trees swaying a bit to her left. It looked as if she may have found what she had been looking for.

The woman waited for the ground to stop shaking before heading in that direction. She had never faced something so huge before but Ana was not about to back down from a fight from anyone. She was no coward whom ran from any sign of danger. It may be bull headed of her but Ana faced it all head on.

Being small may look like a bit of a disadvantage to some but Ana took it as an advantage. Sure she could easily be stomped on but she was quicker than the giant and could hide. The giant couldn't hide and there were many spots of it she could stab!

The trembling of the ground beneath her feet became worse as she got closer to the giant but at the same time Ana was able to better see what she was up against.

The giant carried a giant spiked club with it as it walked along destroying everything in its path. As it came closer Ana began to climb up a tree with every intention of jumping on it as it got closer. A sneak attack in hopes of catching it off guard.

 

[Nima Tann]

On the Ground​

Shri-tal​

Objective: Rescue Civilians​

They kept coming and coming, kill one, and you'll find thousands... She wasn't sure that she could keep them away from the civilians that long, she was tired already. Of all the more basic but effective stances, she had to choose Ataru, of course. Why keep it simple, right? She jumped towards the bug, activating her ligtsaber mid-air, splash, the blood of the bug made its place to her face. "Ugh... disgusting." She immediately cleaned it, hoping that she won't get ill or infected, considering the wounds. But there was no time to think, she had to fight, she had to keep the civilians safe. One... two... three... How many were there? She lost the count... Just kill them, one less to worry about, she was surprised that she didn't die already, the trainings were useful after all. And she heard a familiar voice, telling her to get down, she left herself to ground, seeing the lightsaber fly and cut one of the bugs, and looking at its stance, it was attacking her, and the lightsaber came in just in time.

"Thank y... Watch out!" she shouted to the Master standing before her, with reflex, took one of the blasters on the ground and shot the bug in its head. Holding his hand, she gained her balance back. "I... I am okay." She stopped for a second to catch her breath. "Thanks for saving me, I didn't even see it coming." She called her lightsaber from the ground and activated it back. "How about you, Master Heavenshield? I still have some spare bandages." Smiling, she attacked the nearest bug, they were a lot, they had a skin that was a little hard to pierce, but they weren't invincible of course. Looking to the situation, the numbers were a little scary, For only one Jedi, there were ten thousand bugs to kill, but of course, numbers didn't matter that much in wars, the history proved that.

They fought alongside, now having a Master near to her, she felt much more secure, secure like not safe, but he could prevent her dying when she wasn't looking. "Master Heavenshield, we need to regroup with others. They'll easily hunt us like this." She wasn't scared, but scattered they had less chance of killing bugs or saving more civilians, or it was better this way and the heat of the battle clouded her judgement, she didn't know that. She was still sensing her master around, which was a good sign.

[Nagate Hei]

Standing on a rooftop wasn't the blessing Nagate thought it would be. The Nagai were on opposite roofs, taking pot shots at him. A few he shot grappling hooks and were scaling the gap to reach him. Nagate donned his mask, drew his knife and pistol and ran from his place of cover to meet the first arriving Nagai.

Sprinting up to the first, Nagate drop kicked him off the building, sending him screaming to his death below. Dodging incoming fire like an acrobat, Nagate moved to the next opponents. Five Nagai had reached him, though, they weren't ready for him to run at them. Sinking his knife into the chest of one, a perfect throw, Nagate fired off a few rounds at the others, dropping two and wounding a third. He jumped, stepping off the chest of the man with the blade in his chest, withdrawing it at the moment of contact, he propelled himself at the last two. Spinning in the air, he gave himself the momentum to slice both soldiers in two revolutions. As he slid on his knees away from the staggering pair, Nagate shot one of the grapple-lines, dropping a handful of Nagai to the streets below, to their deaths.

He moved to the soldiers he'd killed and grabbed ammo and a rifle. There he took up a position and started shooting back at the Nagai on the adjacent building. Then he heard the blood-chilling cry of the bugs below as some began to climb the buildings. Nagate aimed down on them and began to methodically pump bolt after bolt into their carapaces. They died slow, unrelenting deaths. Would he be able to survive alone?

 

[Iratann'Dira]

Putting a hand on her head, the young Padawan stood up, still dizzy after crashing against a wall. Well, to be more exact, after one of those big, hulking giants sent grabbed her and threw her against a duracrete wall inside what it once had been a store. Fortunatelly, the giant had kept on causing mayhem on the city, killing and destroying everything that stood on his path, believing that he had killed the Twi'lek, which gave Ira time to recover.

Walking clumsily, she picked up her lightsaber, which had been thrown off her hands during the attack, she tried to reach the streets, that were by this time, ravaged, and destroyed, the buildings burned, and debris were scattered all around the street. Suddenly, between the gunfire and explosions, she heard a screamed, coming from behind a huge metal piece. Starting to feel better, her senses returning slowly to her, the Padawan moved closer to the heap, and climbed over it, finding at the other side a woman, being cornered by what Ira would just describe as a "Mean, giant, hungry insect." Something was clear, however. It wasn't going to stop if she didn't intervened. Using the force, she pushed the creature a few feet away from the woman, and then jumped from above, turning her lightsaber on. With the green blade, she managed to sever the left uppermost leg. The mindless creature reacted as soon as Iratann was on the floor, and opened it's maw to grab and hopefully kill the Padawan, however, the Twi'lek reacted faster, and cut the creature's upper mouth, finally killing it by stabbing it on the small eye that the alien had.

She took a deep breath, after freezing for a moment. She had killed a living being. A... living being....

The sentence started to play on her mind, like a broken record. Although she had trained in the Temple, nothing had prepared her for this. She felt guilty, and ashamed of her actions. However, soon, a voice reminded her why she had done it.

"T-Thank you..." The woman suddenly spoke, and Ira turned around. "I-I..." She started to speak, shyly as always. "Y-You... y-you are... w-welcome..." The Padawan said, turning off her lightsaber, and putting it into her belt so that she could help the woman to stand up. "A-Are y-you alright? T-The c-creature h-hurt you?" The Twi'lek asked, and it wasn't long before she saw the nasty wound that the To-Chw had inflicted her in the arm. "O-Ok... l-let me c-cure y-you..." Ira prepared herself to cure the lady with the force, however, she suddenly heard a loud shriek behind her, as more of the giant insect-like aliens appeared from an alley. "I-It's n-not s-safe here. C-Come w-with m-me." Taking the girl by the wrist of her other uninjured arm, she started to move, trying to find somewhere safe, and more survivors to help. As she paced, reaching the end of the street, she was meet by several corpses of the bug-creatures, and the hue of several lightsabers nearby. "H-Hello!" She exclaimed, trotting between the corpses, trying to find her fellow jedi. "H-Hello?! I-I f-found a survivor!" She screamed again, until she finally found a group of jedi, that were trying to protect a group of civilians, fighting off an ever increasing number of To-Chw. The Padawan decided to make a run to reach them, and turning her lightsaber on, she started to race through the street, always making sure that the woman didn't was left behind, and that the blades of the creatures didn't touch either of the two.

[Coci Heavenshield]

On Ground Shri-Tal
Objective: Investigate Priests/Priestesses

In the distance, the black moving shape on ground coming from the north disappeared behind the tall buildings. These hideous bugs devouring everything in their path, wanton destruction of life without cause or understanding. Killing for killing sake. Her heart trembled at the thought of Thurion in the midst of it and hated the idea she was not beside him in this hour. She knows he is a warrior and not alone but Duty of a Jedi is cruel.

A loud rumbling sound filled her ears, her head turned as a building close by began to fall, as if pushed by an strong force of power. Her force sense acute and sensed the presence of evil near at hand. Below in the streets, there is mayhem, people fleeing for their lives in panic, others taking advantage of war zones pilfering whatever their hands happen to find, other more filled with ill intent corner others in alleys to either rob or worse and Coci could not walk passed this even though her mission is to locate the enemy.

Jumping from the roof top, she landed unseen or unsensed in the alley, wasting no time Coci ran toward a man with no nobility in his heart, assaulting a woman. As she near Coci came out of consealment raised her hand and lifted the man off the woman. In the not so distant past, she would have simply ended his life, she has changed however, but the anger remains and so with one strength of action, Coci slammed him against the wall, on impact she heard his bones in his back crack and she let him drop to the ground.

"Get out of here now", she whispered as she passed the woman and entered the streets. The scene before her, showed much destruction.

 

[Connor Harrison]

Connor Harrison squeezed his hands tightly on his temples, pushing against the bone of the skull in an attempt to force out the vision flooding before his tightly closed eyes. He crouched down against his bed, holding his breath in sharp gasps and tensing every muscle in his aching body to quell the nightmare and the pain he couldn’t stop feeling.

The mutilated body of [member="Coci Sinopi"] dangled from a rope in the Isolated Gardens of the Silver Jedi temple. Beneath, Jedi [member="Serena Bouie"] rocked back and forward, crying loudly. [member="Aika Kawakami"] sat above in the trees, swinging her legs and clapping slowly.

The world around where Connor stood with his crimson blade was swirling, a vortex of dark colours and shadow. A blood-red sky hung overhead the Temple, and screams of the Taung could be heard inside the body of the Jedi – the Sith – the one responsible for killing his Shadow Sister.

Amber eyes, bubbling flesh and silver armour that reflected the bright red moon above was all that Serena could see of Connor, a traitor to the Order and those who cared for him.

The screams were echoing in his head – those of Coci, of [member="Nima Tann"] and [member="Thurion Heavenshield"]…and Sith Lord Matsu Xiangu, which turned into a goading laugh.

He ran the blade along the scorched grass, through the ruins of the garden and around Serena as if he was toying with her. Fighters screamed overhead and a flurry of blaster fire rained down around Connor, who stood still and triumphant.

Coci’s body convulsed; muscle, internal organs and skin rotting away with the breeze and covering Connor with his reward for giving into his true calling as a Dark Lord -

”ALRIGHT!!”

The vision ended as quickly and as surprisingly as it had begun – brought on by his emotional state with returning to Voss, and so soon seeing his fellow Jedi enter into another war against evil, this time on the planet where his troubles had all started.

With a thick sweat matting his black hair to his brow, strands of hair dangling over his eyes, Connor held his face in his hands and breathed hard. It seemed the encounter with Matsu Xiangu had left more scars on him than just physical ones. The right side of his torso was sore from where his wounds had been treated a day ago, his flesh resembling something alien and uneven with scars on the holes where he had been pierced by stones.

He felt tears sting his eyes, and felt truly foolish.

Lifting his head, he bit his tongue and inhaled deeply to compose himself. He stood quickly and leant over the small table in his chambers, using the Force around him to help sooth his mind and calm him.

”Darkness prays on the weak – you’re not weak anymore. You are a defender of hope.” he whispered to himself.

Standing in just the thin medical trousers he had left the medbay in for recovery, Connor refrained from looking at his body, as he couldn’t bear the sight that would greet him.

He looked up out of the window to the peaceful planet below the Temple. He could almost hear them in battle; fighting, dying, protecting. He wanted to help…but something was stopping him.

 

[Darth Ren Malgus]

[SIZE=12pt]Then she felt it she turned to look she was awake right? This wasn’t a continuation of the dream, or vision, or whatever it had been at first.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]Serena reached over and pinched her arm “OW!” ok she was awake, or at least able to feel pain. There was a sound, squeaking? Squealing? Serena shook her head, no screaming. It was screaming.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]In her mind she could see a ring of red, looking up she could see nothing. She had to be hallucinating terribly, had the slabs that she had been looking at more than what they seemed.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]The civilians around her had stopped, they were perfectly still as they all turned and looked at her. She could feel nothing from them. “Hurry you don’t want to be caught in the open” They needed and then all pointed towards the hills above the city.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]It was moving. Serena nodded, “Go, and get to safety”[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]Was there any place to be safe? And what was going on that she felt this otherness again. Serena began walking toward the giant form. As she reached the edge of the city something else stopped her. Something she had not seen before. Was it…? She narrowed her gaze once more. It was a giant.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]Her mind quickly adjusted to knowing what was before her, it reminded her of the tales her mother had told her as a child. But this, this was no story this was a GIANT.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]In his hand he carried a great club that he swung with great effort taking out the buildings in one swing, people screamed again once the shock had worn off, they ran passed her away from this.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]Foolish as it sounded, “HEY!!” She jumped up and down, she would take him out of the city. Then with the adrenaline that she used when cave jumping she ran at it, ducking down as the club swung her way, taking her light saber she stabbed him in the foot, it bellowed and stomped. The ground shook beneath her, and cracks began to open around her.[/SIZE]


[SIZE=12pt]Goddess, Serena ran the other way the Giant on her tail now heading into the hills leaving behind them open crevasses that seemed to be doing more damage than good.[/SIZE]

 

[Quenladose]

[member="Serena Bouie"]

Quenladose was observing the bugs as they continued to fight with the locals and then she moved when she felt it. Her padawan was in danger and she was moving now letting the cloak drop while she moved activating the saber and leaping into the air. her blade sliced into the legs of the bugs to get it down while she sliced through it more and more. She was moving quickly with the force while she saw it, large creatures that were towering over everyone else... and she had a moment of pride...Ah ya now you know how it feels to be the smallest thing in the room. She didn't say it outloud but she was thinking it loudly while she moved shouting for her padawan. "Serena this way."

 

[Nagate Hei]

Nagate was beginning to run low on ammunition, but he wasn't going to wait around to find out how he'd fare without a gun as more bugs began to crawl the side of the building. He got a running start on one of the grapple lines that remained from the Nagai on the other building. He sprinted as fast as he could, then jumped. He used the rifle as a catalyst to slide the expanse between buildings like a zip line. He crossed the sea of bugs below, screeching and clawing at him from stories below. Once he'd reached the other building, he crawled up and found that the Nagai had left. A few had died from Nagate's pot shots, they still had weapons and ammo, he grabbed what he could and found a building on the far side that was connected via a maintenance walkway.

He jumped as a few bugs began to climb this building. Sliding the fifteen feet to the walkway below, he rolled as his feet me duracrete. Already running as a few bugs landed behind him on the walkway, but their combined weight collapsed the floor beneath their feet, it was a classic race against the falling floor and the other side as Nagate pushed his feet as hard as he could to not fall.

 

[Darth Ren Malgus]

The screaming was finally fading away, the red circle that seemed to follow her disappeared just as quickly as it had begun.

Serena kept running unable to stop the ground beneath her feet seemed to be crumbling away. The Giant still followed swinging his club his intent clear, repayment for the damage she'd done to his foot.

Serena could feel the presence of other force users, their presence growing. But there was one that felt far away one that seemed bathed in a bright light that shifted from white to red. She wished she could stop and concentrate on that if she could she would know that that light that seemed so far and away from her was [member="Connor Harrison"]. Was he alright? And why now could she suddenly feel him within the force were questions she would have asked.

Then she heard it her name, just as the Giant stopped something was catching his attention. Oh they seemed easily distracted by the simplest changes or loud sounds it was their size that gave them a bit of an advantage. She took the pause for a brief moment dancing forward as if on hot coals to avoid the cracking of the ground beneath her. She finally was able to stop as well not needing to replenish breath or strength but to sense out the direction of [member="Quenladose"]

Only once she was sure of the direction did she begin to run again, and then as if the Giant had been waiting gave chase swinging wildly now at her as she ran, each swing of his club missed her by mere inches she could feel it missing her. Such was the Giants effort that he grunted with each swing.

In her mind she was questioning why this had begun so unexpectedly where did the Giants come from?

 

[Thurion Heavenshield]

Blocking blaster fire and cutting through bugs non-stop, Thurion was amazed at the padawan's skill in taking care of herself in such a literal warzone. It also made him feel sorry for her; this was no place for anyone so young where their lives may end so suddenly. "The Grandmaster is just up ahead. I'll have the Rangers clear a path for you so that you may reach her. Stay with her and assist her in rescuing the civilians!" Then turning to shout order via his comm-link to one of the officers, a gunship appeared to blast through any opposition between [member="Nima Tann"] and their forces to the North, where [member="Iella E'ron"] was holding them off. "Go on, kid! I'll see you once this is all over!" It was a hopeful sentence, perhaps more focused on making himself believe that she would make it through unharmed rather than her. She'd been through the aftermath on Shri-Tal, after all.

"Grand Paladin, we've cleared out all the buildings between us and the evacuation zone!" another officer reported via his comm-link. "Well done, Captain! Take your men and provide the civilians with escorts back to the evac zone. More will follow, and when they do I want you there to greet them and lead them to safety." Without hesitation the officer replied. "Aye, sir!"

Off in the distance, more giants appeared wielding weaponry far larger and heavier than any normal being could ever carry. They were targetting buildings, leveling them with ease in a matter of seconds. Immediately Thurion dashed off in their direction, cutting down any hostiles in the way. He leaped into the air and planted his lightsaber firmly in the giant's chest, putting it on its back. That wasn't enough to stop it, however, and it even took a few swings at him while he was trying to pull his azure blade back out of its chest. Before it could do any further damage, fortunately, a couple Rangers showed up to put a few rounds in its head at point blank range, ending its life. "You alright, sir? Tough bastards, aren't they?" They helped him get back on his feet. "Thanks for the assist. I'll be fine, go on."

There were many more of these giants roaming the area, and lots more work to be done. He was given a brief moment to search for his beloved [member="Coci Sinopi"] through the Force and took comfort in knowing she was alright.

 

[Coci Heavenshield]

On Ground Shri-Tal
Objective: Investigate Priests/Priestesses

The sound of another building falling to the ground, and the plumb of dust and smoke billowed up the street toward her, thick and cloaking. Coci ushered the on coming people away to a more safer location, telling them to head to the edge of the city and they would be found by the Silver Jedi and the Antarian Rangers.

The streets are becoming more and more empty as the people flee and leave what possessions they carried behind them to lighten their loads for flight.

"Move in on my position", she said into her commlink to the dispatched Jedi Shadows, "Enemy sighted".

Enemy is sensed as well and not far ahead, a strange sense through the force of pure unbridled evil with the intent of destruction and little else. Such a waste of energy, such a waste of the force.

Then she felt it, the gentle wave of his presence washing over her through their force bond. He is searching for her and so she responded to her [member="Thurion Heavenshield"], with a wanting of him and of love. War reinforces love especially when one is staring into the face of danger, the fear of loss palpable and all she want more then anything in the galaxy was to be with him, by his side. If they are to die she would prefer to die alongside him.

However, her love issued through the force and directly to Thurion, along with a surge of energy to aid him if needed. A message sent to him as well, that if they are to get out of this she would remind him of her love for him. The adrenaline of war? perhaps. But all she wants is to touch him.

 

[Coci Heavenshield]

[member="Thurion Heavenshield"] / [member="Nima Tann"]

She shoulders began to ache. However the wave of bugs had been stopped, for now. The Silver Jedi along side the Antarian Rangers had held their position and the people taken to safety but they had to move forward into the rest of the city. Iella took in a deep breath as her dragon essence waned and the white mist sucked back in to her for another time. Her head turned first followed by her body, she could see Nima and Thurion standing near the dead body of a giant. And without hesitation she regrouped to them.

Master Heavenshield stood covered in the sweat and gore of the battle, a respite in the battle allowing all of them to take breath and stock. Words seem irrelevant in these situation, those that had tasted the 'blood' of battle and war know what the others go through. As for her Padawan is it a blooding, this is what she and all the others are trained for, an unfortunate fact of life for a Jedi. She remember her first battle, Metalorn. Only a member of the Jedi Order for a week when Iella was thrown into the deep end, it was a true bloody campaign in which Iella had learned much in a matter of hours. She had been targeted for two reasons, one she was the weakest on ground, untrained and without much support and she was the Padawan of Master Syn, that along put the bulls eye on her back. A near miss that day, and she still has the armour that bears the burn of the Sith lightsaber on the back of her armour.

Although she stood in front of Thurion and Nima, her eyes looked around the immediate area, Thurion had succeeded in the evacuation and the peoples owed him their lives. Now she looked over them both, blood and dirt covered but well, physically at least.

"We need to regroup and move forward into the rest of the city", she said with lowered voice only because Iella still needed to catch her breath.

 

[Saki]

[member="Ven Odium"]

Saki could feel it as she felt the hammer smack into her face as she gripped the staff and flew with it. Her skin was using soft to solid, her armor protective but you could still feel it as her face and mind went jelly for a moment and Saki flew... launching back towards the one building as she tucked in a little to protect her head and neck. Saki flew into the air and arced to the other end of the city as she impacted with a crash while she laid there almost snarling and shaking her head. "Oww..... that might have been a mistake." She was laying there and her comlink was broken from the hit while she stretched out feeling the energy in her body go away for a bit. "Going to rest for a moment or two."

 

[Basaba Willamina]

Engage fleet in space

Basaba had arrived with the Yaim'la, her friendship with the Silver Jedi extended to one thing.... she trusted them to at least honor their bargains as she was moving about with her armor on. The sisters she had were there with her as Basaba secured her helmet clenching her arm tthe mechanical equipment finally becoming like a second limb while she spoke securing her Horak rifle on her back, her pistol then the dar'yaim cannon. "Alright we are boarding that ship and going to take what we can, move quickly towards the engines and bridge." The nods and agreement while they had the cannons. "Make sure those get down there to help the Silver jedi." She was speaking to the sisters who were heading down to the planet.

 

[Ayumi Pallopides]

Ayumi was moving about, the ship had been flying when the first wave came and now there there was more there she was looking at them. Heading towards the roof of the medical facility as she let out a breath she had realized she was holding. Those bugs were large, in the millions it looked like. She wasn't looking forward to fighting those things as she ran off towards the door and spoke. "This is Ayumi, I am on the roof with a transport for evacuating if we need it. I also brought a few more silver jeid."

 

[Quenladose]

[member="Serena Bouie"]

Quenladose was moving as she saw her padawan running. Quenladose jumped letting her hands reach for the sabers and she kicked off a building to get more height before she was on the shoulder of the Ren, making it look at her and try to swat her. The giant soldier smacked its own shoulder with a large palm. Her eyes watching it before she jumped again smacking the saber on the creatures helmet before crawling onto its helmet and jumping down the back. She could see more of the ugs and was moving while she shouted. "Serena get into cover and I'll distract it."

 

[Syn]

The monitoring station was getting new crew for their shift as Syn sat on the ship delivering them. He had a look on his face while he felt and saw it. He saw it through the force as he was moving tpwards the bridge and speaking standing on the ship. "We need to move, protect the grandmaster and council. Return us to Shri-Tal."
