Even with the familiar presence as a constant tingling at the back of Teckla’s mind, the local Moff and Crusader Grandmaster was working hard at finding a way into the Jotunheim station. She was not sure why the presence from Tion was even here on Dac. It was a constant distraction however, preventing Teckla from concentrating on finding the best way into the station. Each time she found a way in she talked herself out of taking it. The personnel on the inside of the facility were obviously not going to be able to hold it long.

Then the shockwaves of energy from the bombardment of Nilfheim and the loss of the station’s shield that followed. The morale of the local forces was low. The rebels had the Quarren backing down. And the capabilities of these rebels had been drastically misreported by the interim Staff Director of the NISB. Changes were going to happen quickly. Alicia Drey had caused trouble in her methods. But at least the Empire wasn’t woefully under prepared at any situation as it had been on Dac. Whether they kept Dac or not, things in the Empire needed to be tightened up. Teckla would see to the changes personally if the Emperor would allow it.

Those changes would start in the Calamari Sector. And they would start sooner than later. An explosion went off from somewhere inside the station. ”Useless Quarren,” Teckla growled to herself. Reached out a hand and pulled a panel off the outer wall of Jotunheim with the Force. She held the water from entering the station and opening a comm to her own troops. ”Lieutenant Viper, it’s time to reassert our dominance over this planet. Begin the fallback plan.” There was a simple click of acknowledgement from the clone platoon. Teckla smirked and opened herself up to the Force. She found each and every Quarren soldier that was surrounding the station and filled each one with cloudy confusion. At the same time she flooded her clone troops with confidence. Moments later there were no longer Quarren presences in the field.

With the inconveniences eliminated Teckla waited for engineers to drop into the room, she then released her hold on the water and gracefully guided it to flood into the reactor room to give her people a chance to do their work. More explosions were heard in the station. The rebels were being thorough. But their plan was not foolproof. And better than that Teckla would allow squire Lissa Lissa and Skyria Kyrtan Skyria Kyrtan to complete their business. In the end the engineers might not be able to save the station. Even if they were there was a lot of work that would go into reconstructing the planetary shields. It was time to get things moving back in the direction of the Empire. Dac and Lothal would only be the first rebellions unless people were held responsible for their betrayals.

Lightsaber
As Jasper saw the submersible of Drenn Drenn off a chill ran down his spine. Force use. Strong at that. Jasper made his way over to a nearby terminal, plugging a scomp link into it to do a little bit of slicing. He'd go through the internal logs of the facility, updated in real time. Sustained damage to the outer wall, flooding in the reactor room despite seeming to have no breach... were they attempting to repair it? Perhaps it was to assist the Quarren engineers or cool down the machinery. That would be impressive after the thermal detonators went off. Still, if they could fix it he couldn't take that chance. Jasper turned his head, laying his eyes on...

The submarine, the vessel he had come in.

"Come on, Pyf," Jasper stated, grabbing the little droid and securing him back in his pocket. "Things are gonna get messy."

"They always get messy," Pyf whirred, muffled by the pocket.

Jasper slipped on his Anti-Toxin Face Mask, priming the rebreather within it before climbing in. He looked over the on-board weapons as he began to drive it out of the station and maneuvered it above the structure. Torpedo tubes? That was probably enough. The young Jedi Master opened up the hatch, letting water rush inside the vehicle. He began his work, inputting an auto pilot command before swimming out the top hatch. He mustered up all of the Force energy he could, rotating the submarine so it's nose would face the roof of the structure, estimating where the reactor room was.

Its engines flared to life. Thrusting forward with incredible speed, also assisted by a subtle Force push, the submarine rocketed towards and ripped through the top of the station into the reactor room. The torpedoes would go off, reducing everything in the room into slag. If water hadn't been spilling in before it certainly was now.

The Master gave a heavy exhale, his energy getting to it's natural limit. He was done. Jasper had done everything that he could have done. Now it was in the hands of the naval battle.

He began to swim to the surface.

Justice was dodging and weaving through the fray, trying to get eyes on Esmeralda's position. His eyes found her just as she jumped at the man she had and then the brightest flash of light had ever seen made him cover his eyes. What the nerf was that...? was all he could think about before he heard the announcement and looked up to see the two small crafts sporting red and white coloring schemes descended over the battlefield, saying that they should give up and surrender before they all died in a fiery explosion due the shield generators reactors melting down. While he didn't doubt their words (after such a bombardment, the shield generator must be at best damaged and at worst totally pulverized), he did doubt that whoever Phoenix Command was would let them walk out of here consequence-free. It was more likely that he would be in a cell or worse blindfolded against the wall with blaster trained at him. It was clear that he needed to make a plan to get out of here now and quickly. After taking a couple seconds shifting through what he could think of, only one came to the top If I live another day, I'm going to really hate myself in the morning for this...

He worked his way back towards the spot he had watched the young girl run off, following her path up to the piece of transport from one of the ships the base's turbolasers had brought down before the giant fish above had turned it to slag. The footprints that lead behind it confirmed his suspicions and he quickly reached over and covered the small teenage girl's mouth, dragging her over the wall and upright as his sword was brought to her throat. He then turned to where his ally and enemy stood both... looking like nerfdung was the best way to put it, like both armies. and shouted loud enough for both to hear. "ENOUGH JEDI! Our terms are we'll stop resisting if we imperials get to keep our weapons, and we get to keep the child as collateral till we get to the spaceport where we can get offworld!" The Battle for Station Nilfheim was over but the negotiation for the freedom of himself, Esmeralda, the garrison and unknowingly to him Yol's Auxilia had just begun.

Oola watched as Skyria took down her target with swift, yet brutal finesse. Of course, the Twi’lek had not needed to watch, but even given the importance of their mission, she could not pass up an opportunity to see the blonde in action. In doing so, Oola flashed the woman a brief glance, her own indigo-hued gaze meeting Skyria’s sky-blue orbs as her cheeks flushed in response to the wink. Then, shaking her head, Oola called her lightsaber back into her grasp, the weapon still ignited as she idly twirled it around.


Sky looked at the two fallen bodies and then at Oola. She gave a knowing wink. ”That was fun, but I’m pretty sure there’s plenty of work still to do.”

“Indeed.” Oola agreed.

From there, Oola took the lead once more, leading Skyria deeper into the control center in the process. Before long, the two came up on another enemy, this one far more imposing and cat-like than the last two combined. Indeed, the creature’s massive frame significantly dwarfed the two women, especially Oola herself given her already diminutive stature.

For all of her initial hopes of outright avoiding the massive Togorian (or at least getting the jump on him), Oola sensed that this fight was one that she would have to take directly. Fortunately, Oola knew that she wouldn’t have to be alone in the task.

For that, Oola touched Skyria along her forearm, allowing herself a brief moment of intimacy before the fight. Then, while moving around the massive Togorian in the hopes of getting to the side opposite from Skyria, the Twi’lek settled into a low stance as her lightsaber floated in front of her via telekinetic will, primed to lash out at a moments’ notice. All the while, Oola moved in such a way as to maintain her distance, avoiding any situation which might force her to close in.

“You’re a big one, Togorian.” Oola purred. “Let’s see how well you can use your size.”

Looking up, he saw the flying opponent and raised up a hand, pushing out with his intention, his hand, and very much any part of his body not covered with the light armor he did wear, flashed brilliant white, able to send someone seeing stars, at best, and overloading any electronic visual interface at best.

It was an incandescent, searing light, so potent and intense that it overwhelmed her helmet’s light filters and made Esmeralda wonder if she had finally been caught in the bombardment. Her thoughts briefly went towards the latter possibility, as she imagined a stray turbolaser turning her body to ash and char. However, it was only the insistent warnings prodding at her awareness through the Ghost Link which made Esmeralda realize that she was still alive and intact.

Albeit, blind.

Caught in mid-air, her armor’s automated defensive systems kicked in to spare her body from further injury upon landing. The lyra gravity system slowed her down just before she would have struck the ground, at which point Esmeralda groaned as she landed, blinking her eyes in quick succession as she tried to regain her sight. All the while, the Siren held onto her light repeating blaster—hard-trained instinct compelling her to always maintain a tight grip on her weapon.

And still, even without sight, Esmeralda was compelled to fight.

The Siren pushed herself back onto her feet. She didn’t have any visuals, but she had sensors and automated defensive systems to warn her of any approaching threats. It was just enough to orient her to surroundings, at which point she brought her light repeating blaster to bear in the rather vague direction of the Force wielder, ready to empty the power cell at the pull of a trigger.

And just then, her ears registered a familiar voice cutting through the silence in her comms.


"ENOUGH JEDI! WAVE THE SHIPS OFF OR SHE GETS IT!" The Battle for Station Nilfheim was over but the negotiation for the freedom of himself, Esmeralda, the garrison and unknowingly to him Yol's Auxilia had just begun.

One minute she was hunched behind some debris, plotting on her next steps on how to escape. Iona had been debating comming Jared, but in case he was hiding, she thought it a bad move. Instead, she was going to move from debris to debris, looking for escape or simply reaching out with the Force to try to find him.

Somehow she had pissed off the guy she was just fighting, despite barely engaging with him. What to do now? She was remembering SING. Yet it would only work if her captor was human. Or human enough. Plus he was wearing armor - time to go with just I and G.

Foot stomped on his instep and without missing a beat, attempted to elbow his groin, which if was like any other human male, would have him lamely crying for weeks on end. No time to roll her eyes about that, she was busy trying to twist away from Captain Crazy.




 






As Tirin stands before the reactor, its chaotic energy thrumming violently through the room, he knows the fate of the entire island—and possibly more—rests on his shoulders. Summoning every ounce of his strength and skill, he plunges his consciousness into the Force, determined to avert the impending catastrophe.

With the reactor teetering on the brink of meltdown, Tirin frantically channels the Force, using Force Absorption to draw the reactor's excess energy into himself. The power surges through him like a storm, threatening to tear him apart. He grits his teeth, absorbing as much of the lethal energy as he can, his muscles quaking with the effort. But the sheer magnitude of the reactor's power is overwhelming, and he realizes he can't contain it all. His body begins to convulse and quiver, racked with immense pain.

Desperate, Tirin shifts to Force Manipulation, extending his senses into the reactor's systems. He repairs circuits, adjusts coolant levels, and realigns the magnetic field with surgical precision, but the reactor resists, its instability only growing stronger. Sweat pours down his face as he battles against the reactor's chaotic fluctuations.

The reactor's energy continues to build, pushing Tirin to his limits. He quickly switches to Force Drain, trying to siphon off the excess power. The chaotic energy floods into him, a raging torrent that threatens to overwhelm his senses. A sharp scream emanates from him as he strains his will against the power. He feels the strain on his body, the immense power cracking his resolve, but he knows he has to hold on.

Seeing that the reactor is still spiraling out of control, Tirin desperately uses Force Stasis, trying to freeze the core in time. The chaotic energy halts, momentarily suspended in a bubble of stasis. But the strain is immense—maintaining such control over the reactor's power drains him rapidly, and he knows this can only buy them a few precious seconds.

Realizing that time is running out and conventional methods are failing, Tirin reaches deep into the Force once more, his mind racing for a solution. His eyes catch the distant shimmer of the light atop the ocean through the ruined walls, and an idea forms—he will harness the sea itself.

Summoning all his remaining strength, Tirin extends his hands toward the distant shoreline. The Force ripples through him, flowing out like an invisible wave to connect with the vast body of water. He feels the cool embrace of the ocean in his mind, the immense power of the tides responding to his call. The ground beneath him trembles as the sea begins to obey.

With a fierce effort, Tirin pulls the ocean's waters toward him. The waves rise, swelling and growing, pulled by the sheer force of his will. The distant roar of the surf grows louder, and soon, a massive wall of water begins to surge toward the facility, crashing over the shattered walls like a tsunami unleashed.

The water floods the facility, pouring into every crack and crevice, rushing toward the reactor. The air fills with the hiss of steam as the cold seawater meets the burning heat of the reactor's core. Tirin can feel the temperature drop, the cooling effect of the water starting to take hold, but it's not enough to stabilize the reactor completely.

Tirin grits his teeth, pushing the water further, directing the torrents to engulf the reactor entirely. The facility groans under the pressure of the rushing water, the walls trembling as the sea forces its way inside swirling about the reactor. For a brief moment, it seems as though the water might do the impossible, quelling the reactor's fury.

But the energy within the core is too great, the damage too severe. The water slows the reactor's meltdown, but it cannot stop it. The sea's cooling embrace buys them only a little more time, and Tirin's vision begins to blur as the strain of his efforts takes its toll. He staggers, feeling his connection to the Force flickering as his strength wanes.

The facility is now a churning maelstrom of water and steam, the reactor still on the brink of disaster. Tirin knows there's nothing truly more he can do—the situation is beyond even his considerable power. He stumbles back, the weight of failure pressing down on him, as the reactor's energy surges once more, threatening to break free.

Realizing he can't absorb or contain all the energy, Tirin makes a split-second decision. He tries to release some of the energy he's absorbed, attempting to channel it out of his body and away from the reactor, and towards the skies abouve. But the energy, already chaotic and unstable, becomes even more volatile as it escapes his control.

A violent surge of power erupts from Tirin, sending arcs of raw energy crashing into the walls and ceiling. The room shakes violently, consoles explode in showers of sparks, and the very air hums with the raw power being unleashed. Tirin struggles to direct the flow, but the energy is too wild, too powerful to fully control.

Tirin's small form becomes engulfed in a blindingly bright light, a radiant aura that pulses with the immense energy he's struggling to control. His form is nearly lost within the resplendent glow of sheer power he wields in this desperate moment. The light shines with a fierce intensity, as if every ounce of his being is channeled into containing the chaos. His features blur, consumed by the brilliance, making him appear almost ethereal.

The reactor, now further destabilized by the violent display, surges with a force beyond Tirin's ability to contain. A final, overwhelming burst of energy lashes out, sending Tirin flying backward. The console in front of him shatters, and shrapnel tears through the air. Tirin cries out as several pieces of metal slices through his side, the impact knocking the wind out of him.

The room is left in chaos, filled with the smell of burning circuits and the crackle of residual energy. Tirin, clutching his bleeding side, tries to push himself up, but the pain and the exhaustion are too great. The reactor, though temporarily slowed by his efforts, is still on the verge of catastrophic failure.


Valin rushes to Tirin's side, eyes wide with concern as the facility shudders around them. "Tirin! We need to get out of here—now!"

Tirin, barely able to stand, shakes his head weakly. The weight of his failure presses down on him like a physical burden. "Go… leave me… I can't…"

But Valin won't take no for an answer. "Not a chance!" he growls. Ignoring Tirin's protests, he hoists the smaller, trembling form of his friend from the cold, churning water. The effort is immense—Tirin's body is limp, his energy spent, but Valin's resolve is unyielding.

The facility groans ominously, the reactor's imminent meltdown sending violent tremors through the ground. Water cascades around them as Valin struggles to find his footing, his muscles straining as he drags Tirin toward the exit. Every step feels like a battle against the raging forces that threaten to engulf them.

Just as they reach the shattered entrance, Tirin musters the last of his strength. Through sheer force of will, he extends a trembling hand, summoning a shield of pure Force energy. The air around them crackles with power as the shimmering barrier forms, a translucent dome that hums with energy.

Behind them, the reactor finally detonates, the core imploding with a blinding flash of light and a deafening roar. The shockwave tears through the island, obliterating everything in its path. But Tirin's Force shield holds firm, the energy of the blast washing over it like a tidal wave against a cliff. The barrier refracts the light in a stunning display of colors, a kaleidoscope of brilliance that contrasts sharply with the destruction it holds at bay.

Valin stumbles out of the collapsing facility, still carrying Tirin's fragile form, just as the shield begins to flicker and wane. They barely make it to safety as the shield finally gives way, the last remnants of Tirin's power dissipating into the air.

As the dust settles, Valin gently lays Tirin on the ground, his breath ragged, his body broken. The island is silent now, save for the crackling of dying flames and the distant rush of the sea. The mission was a success, but the cost was high.

Valin kneels beside his friend, his chest heaving with exertion, but his grip on Tirin's shoulder is firm. "You're not leaving me behind, not today," he whispers, his voice thick with emotion.

The brilliant light that had once surrounded Tirin fades, leaving behind only the dim afterglow of their escape. Valin kneels beside Tirin, his chest heaving from exertion, but the sight before him brings a new kind of fear—one that grips his heart and won't let go.

Tirin's breath is shallow, his eyes half-lidded as he gazes up at Valin. His hand, trembling and weak, reaches up as if to say one last thing, but the words catch in his throat. The effort is too much. His fingers barely brush against Valin's arm before they go slack, falling limply to the ground.

For a moment, the world seems to stop. Tirin's chest stills, his breathing ceases, and a profound silence falls over the desolate island as those violet eyes fade off and gain a dull blank stare. Valin stares in disbelief, the realization hitting him like a physical blow.

"No… No, no, no!" Valin's voice cracks, raw with panic and emotion. "Tirin! Stay with me—don't you dare leave me!" His hands, usually so strong and sure, shake as he presses them against Tirin's chest, desperately trying to revive his fallen friend. The cold, damp ground beneath them is unforgiving, a harsh contrast to the warmth that is rapidly fading from Tirin's body.

Valin begins to perform CPR, his movements frantic, tears stinging his eyes as he pumps Tirin's chest and breathes for him. "Come on, Tirin… please…" he pleads, his voice breaking. "You can't give up now… we're almost home. You're stronger than this—don't you quit on me!"

He counts the compressions aloud, his voice growing more desperate with each passing second. "One… two… three… breathe!" But Tirin's body remains still, unresponsive, and a wave of helplessness crashes over Valin, threatening to drown him in despair. He presses harder, pushing his own fear and sorrow into each attempt to bring Tirin back. "Please… please, don't leave me…"

The memories of their battles together, the shared laughter, the unspoken bond—they all flash through Valin's mind in a chaotic blur. The thought of losing Tirin, of being alone in a galaxy that suddenly feels much colder and emptier, is unbearable. Tears spill down Valin's cheeks, mixing with the sweat and grime of the battlefield as he refuses to give up, his voice trembling with raw emotion.

"Tirin… I need you… I can't do this without you…" His words are barely more than a whisper now, choked with grief. He leans down, pressing his forehead against Tirin's, a final plea escaping his lips. "Please… come back…"

As the fighting between the TAC and EOTL rages on the surface, the Eggman: Emperor Velran Kilran Velran Kilran flagship continues to careen at a frightening pace from orbit. Large chunks of metal were violently ripped from the burning hull and striking the surface as if they were asteroids. The Super Star Destroyer losing all control, continued to tear itself apart plummeting onto the ground hull first. As soon as it made contact with the land, a large, violent tremor was felt followed by a large cloud of dust began which spread across the field.

Fervos was taken aback by the almost sensual tone of the Twi'lek's voice. Was this a call to battle, or some kind of odd flirtation? Surely someone on the side of tyranny would not take the time to make bedroom eyes at the enemy! Regardless the felinid warrior drew one of his bastard swords, hefting it around with just one hand.

"Truly it is a shame that we meet on opposite sides of this conflict. A beautiful maiden such as yourself shouldn't be scarred by the horrors of war."

He felt a bit odd returning the diminutive woman's flirtations, but on the other side, he did find the woman beautiful. He truly did wish that they could reach a settlement to the conflict without bloodshed. But, such was the tragic nature of war. Then, there was the matter of the two dead soldiers on the floor. It was too late for them, and if anyone was to blame, it was Fervos. If he had been here, perhaps they would still be alive.

"As for my size," He paused, raising his free left arm into a curled flex. "You'll find me quite adept at leveraging my strength!"

With that, he padded the floor, trying to plan how he would attack Oola. To charge in would be a blunder. Her lightsaber was being wielded by the invisible hand of the Force. Meaning that it wasn't bound by the limitations of a humanoid's range of motion. It could strike him from any angle, but perhaps there was a way to counter this. No doubt this feat required intense focus. So maybe drawing Oola's attention somewhere else might be fruitful?

There was also the matter of Skyria, who seemed to be quite the capable woman herself. If she jumped into the brawl, it could get very dangerous for Fervos. Still, he wouldn't step down from a challenge, no matter the odds! For now he would observe her movements, keeping his main focus on the Twi'lek.

”General,” one of the Pakuuni engineers approached Teckla as she paced, feeling great upheaval in the battles above the waves. ”The generator is a total loss. For the shield to function again it will require a complete rebuild. But the structure is now secure.”

Teckla nodded her acceptance of this news without saying a word. She could still feel Squire Ven and her aide Skyria in a battle within the walls of the station. That they didn’t have another enemy in a great explosion or walls collapsing allowing water to rush in was a comfort of sorts to the General, Moff and Grandmaster. She wasn’t one to make many friends. Oola would not see her that way, Skyria might not either. Teckla still was invested in their futures. To see that end here would have been a shame.

Another presence that Teckla was expecting to feel was no longer as close as it should have been and it was alive but lacking in its usual sign of life and moving away from the station. ”Ready my submersible. I’m leaving the station in your hands. When Kyrtan arrives she is in charge.”

Empire-Divider-removebg-preview.png

Teckla was halfway to the surface. Finally the Mon Cal submersible that held Drenn Drenn - in whatever state he may be in - was within his sight. She opened herself to the Force so that she could control the rise of the vehicle. In doing so Teckla felt a tremendous change in everything going on around Dac. She frantically pressed buttons on her sub, gripping tightly to Drenn’s with the Force and rising to the surface as quickly as possible.

As both craft came to the surface, pieces of starship debris were raining down. Teckla tugged on the other sub to bring it alongside her own. She pried it open glad to find Drenn’s frozen form. Pushing a sense of confidence into her motionless bodyguard she transferred him into her sub and started towards the closest island (where Nilfheim had once been housed) ”Imperial Command this is High Moff Tane. Get me the Emperor. I need to know what is going on in orbit. All this debris is going to cause havoc with our defenses.”

”Sorry High Moff. The Emperor is no longer leading forces in the battle. His ship has been destroyed. I can put you in touch with Moff Mecetti, Darth Rasnuhl or Captain Von Strauss.” a monotone voice responded to the request.

”Nevermind!” Teckla growled. If the Eggman had fallen the rest of the naval commanders would have their hands full. ”Open me a systemwide Imperial channel. Military and civilian.”

”All ears are on you High Moff,” the system’s comm control replied.

Teckla calmed herself. She had been face to face with the Emperor enough times that with her powers she would be able to find his presence even in all this chaos. It was not there. The Emperor was gone! ”Attention all Imperials. This is High Moff Teckla Tane. This outlaw rebellion has taken away our guiding light. The Emperor has been killed. Push these bastards like you’ve never pushed before. Give it all you got. FOR THE EMPEROR!!”

Teckla closed the comm as her vessel made shore and was met by a battle ravaged group of clones. ”Move my bodyguard to my shuttle. Have it prepped for take off as soon as myself, my aid and squire Ven arrive. I have something I need to do. I won’t be long…” The clone leader nodded and Drenn was taken from her sub. She then closed it back up and went out to look over the debris as it floated atop the ocean. The Emperor’s life was gone. She knew that much. But she owed it to him to find what was left. At least until things got too dire or Skyria returned from the bottom of the seas. With Velran Kilran Velran Kilran gone there was work to do. Others could take up the search if and when the time came.

Skyria closed her eyes and savored Oola’s light touch. They were on the precipice of what promised to be a much more challenging fight than the executions they had just performed. Oola’s flirtatious tone continued on their opponent, something that made Skyria a bit jealous. Though she had been a bit playful herself, it wasn’t like she had a leg to stand on in any complaints. The Togorian returned the statement with regret at the manner of their meeting. And called Oola a beautiful maiden. ”What am I chopped liver?” Skyria growled. ”I think you’ll find beautiful maidens are quite adept at war in these times. Sometimes even better than big kitties like yourself.” For all of Oola’s playful tone Skyria’s was sharp and sarcastic.

The Togorian’s display of his muscle was quite impressive, even if it didn’t exactly make Skyria swoon the way the shift in Oola’s hips did. For the bravado of the statement and showing off of his muscles the Togorian was more cautious at actually beginning the fight. Perhaps it was weighing the odds. Deciding which opponent should be the first target. Maybe he had something at his disposal that would allow him to attack both adversaries. Of course his eyes were more often drawn to Oola. Skyria couldn’t fault him for that. She was the personification of beauty and she was wielding a lightsaber in an unorthodox manner. Skyria was merely a blonde girl with a knife.

Skyria guessed that their enemy knew that Oola was a threat even at range. That being the case Skyria started to slide slowly to the large catman’s left side. She now had both knives in her hand, the one in the right twisted around playfully in her palm before she decided she would strike. She gave Oola a wink, hoping that it would translate to the twi’lek as a sign of her readiness through the Force. With no wasted motion Skyria lunged out towards their enemy, knives slashing across her body at the lower rib level of the Togorian. The first move had been made. A test of the girls’ prowess was about to occur.
 



Valin's hands, slick with sweat and blood, pound desperately on Tirin's chest, his voice a frantic plea in the chaos around them. The super star destroyer looms above, its massive form tearing through the sky, but Valin's entire world has shrunk to the limp figure beneath him.

"Come on, Tirin! Don’t do this to me!" Valin's voice cracks, raw with panic. He counts out the compressions, forcing air into Tirin's lungs, but there’s no response. A dark, desperate thought flickers through his mind, and he hesitates for only a heartbeat before surrendering to it.

His breath catches as he taps into the Force, but not the calm, serene energy he's known before. No, this is something darker, more primal—a well of power that burns as it answers his call. His eyes narrow, glowing faintly as the dark side surges within him, a forbidden strength he never thought he’d touch.

Lightning crackles at his fingertips, a dangerous, volatile energy that arcs through the air before plunging into Tirin’s chest. "Breathe, damn you! Breathe!" Valin's voice is a guttural snarl.

Tirin's body convulses violently, the shock forcing life back into his lungs. He gasps, his chest heaving as his eyes snap open, but there's a haunting emptiness in his gaze, a flicker of something broken. Valin’s breath catches in his throat, tears of relief welling in his eyes even as a gnawing dread takes hold.

“You’re alive… you’re really alive!” Valin whispers, but the joy is tinged with something darker—an awareness of the unnaturalness of what he’s done.

Tirin blinks up at him, confusion and exhaustion clouding his eyes. His voice is weak, barely more than a whisper. "Valin… what have you done?"

The question hangs in the air like a curse, and for a moment, Valin can’t answer. The weight of what he’s done presses down on him, the realization that he’s crossed a line he can never uncross. But there’s no time to dwell on it, no time to think about the cost.

Without a second thought, Valin scoops Tirin into his arms, holding him close as if he might slip away again. His grip tightens, a mix of relief, fear, and something darker coursing through him as he rises to his feet.

Above, the super star destroyer begins its catastrophic descent, the sky alight with fire and debris. Valin doesn’t look back. He runs, every muscle burning with effort as he flees the impending doom. The ground shakes, the roar of the falling behemoth deafening, but all that matters is the precious weight in his arms.

As the colossal ship crashes behind them, the shockwave propels Valin forward, but he holds tight to Tirin, shielding him from the worst of the blast. They tumble to the ground, the force of the explosion reverberating through their bodies, but Valin keeps moving, driven by the pure, unyielding need to get them both to safety.

He doesn’t stop until they’re clear of the falling debris, collapsing to his knees with Tirin still cradled against him. The sky is filled with fire, the ground littered with wreckage, but in this moment, all Valin can feel is the steady rise and fall of Tirin’s chest.

But in that rhythm, there’s something wrong, something off. Valin can feel it—a lingering trace of the dark power he unleashed, a shadow that clings to Tirin’s life. He tries to push the thought away, to focus on the fact that Tirin is alive, but Tirin’s weak voice cuts through his thoughts.

"Valin… what did you do?" Tirin's voice is filled with fear and confusion, his eyes searching Valin’s face for answers.

Valin can’t meet his gaze, can’t face the truth of what he’s done. Instead, he pulls Tirin closer, as if holding him tightly enough could keep the darkness at bay. “I saved you,” he whispers, but the words feel hollow, a fragile lie against the weight of what he knows is coming.

The cost has been paid, but at what price?

You are always focusing on that which is right in front of you. Never the bigger picture. That is why you’re only an operative. He could hear the voice of Scall McLean, one of the elder Warbirds, the ones who flew with his father before the time in carbonite. He was a teacher to Jared in his youth, teaching the adolescence how to fire a rifle, and how to track his prey in the Force. Scall, like Coren, was a Force user who was a soldier by chance.

Not always by choice.

And it meant that they knew learned how to fight the war and pay attention to what was out there. Scall lead the ground forces of the Wing, and knew better than to sacrifice an eye to the sky for two eyes on the ground.

With the message in his head, he was seeing what was about him. The soldier with the flight, the Rangers that came with him and Iona deep out of the uncharted worlds of Levant space, Iona herself, the trooper that had her. But not least of all the falling star destroyer. He needed to get Iona over here, and away from the foes.

Jared stood, slowly, he knew he was bleeding from somewhere, and there was at least two sprains in as many bones somewhere in his body. They were going to need to get out of here. “Release her.” He said, in a commanding voice, trying to affect their faculties with the Force. One lightsaber pointed at the trooper, the other at the flying Siren. If they didn’t, he had one hell of an illusion prepped.

But if they did? Iona and Jared were hightailing it back to the ship, or, more likely, into the water.

Yol didn't turn back around, or so much as glance behind him.

It was his sensors that reported on the truth: Almost 200 of his Auxilia decided to stay behind for the 'rescue' by enemy forces.

Just over 300 stayed with him.


They made good time with their Bounding Boots. Nearly two kilometers in a matter of minutes. They looked like Jackolutes, the two-legged hopping mammals of Veridian Prime. Making mighty leaps of ten meters at a step, they bounced forward towards the ruined generator station, its damaged form growing in size with each bounding leap.

Then something happened which did demand that Yol turn his head... for he couldn't believe what his HUD was reporting to him. That's when he saw it: A massive shape descending from the heavens. Not just a destroyer, but a Super Star Destroyer. Yol knew it could only belong to one figure.

For a moment, he had the fanciful thought that the Emperor had decided to punish the surrendering Auxilia. Like a proper madman, he'd made a dive down from space to personally stab his ship into the midst of them.

But that was just a single moment's crazy notion. The truth was much more dire. The Emperor's ship had been brought down, to crash on the very island the Auxilia had been sent to help secure.


Those who'd stayed behind for rescue were almost certainly dead. Intentionally or not, the Emperor had killed them. But the danger would not end there.

A Super Star Destroyer was a formidable craft. Kilometers long. With powerful Hypermatter Reactors. Kinetic forces would be bad enough to turn solid stone into magma. But there was more than just matter in that descending dagger. There were Kilotons of energy brewing in its reactors, even if they were in a standby state.

Yol Kan turned, gave a single order to his remaining troops, "RUN!"

Then he bounded onwards with renewed vigor, increasing the pace and distance of each advance.

His loyal troops were nearly two kilometers away from ground zero.

It wouldn't be enough.

All discipline fell from their ranks. It was every man, woman, and otherbeing for themselves, bounding with maximum force for all they were worth as an expanding wall of flame extended towards them...

Well, atleast the kid had more spunk than he thought. Even his metal boots didn't help prevent the pain from coming as she stomped on his foot and his armor certainly didn't help from the "Stranger danger" elbowing to his crotch. While his grip did loosen up for a second, he still was doing his best to try to hold on as he winced through the aftermath. "Kid... Please don't make this harder on us than this already is..." He looked back up as he heard what he assumed to be her Master get up and look at him with the intensity of the Death Star laser, growling out for him to release her. Yeah... He didn't have time to argue with Papa Bear right now and that look he was giving the clone was giving him the willys. "Fine, but just so you know for next time, don't bring a pre-teen whose only offensive move is yelling "Eww you got cooties!" to a battlefield!" Grabbing the back of her girl's shirt, he boosted forward using his and slipped two things into the girl's hand, one was a lit smoke grenade and other being a key chain of a creature he hadn't had the chance to put on his gear yet. It was the least he could do for what he had put her through. He then tossed her at the scary jedi, hoping it would be causing enough of a distraction so he could zoom down and help Esmeralda Io Esmeralda Io walk away from the pair towards whatever safety was left.

As they walked away, he heard the massive explosion from inside the base as the reactor detonated around Tirin Raene Tirin Raene and looked up to the fiery Super Star Destroyer that had started falling from the sky. Then he had heard the order.
”Attention all Imperials. This is High Moff Teckla Tane. This outlaw rebellion has taken away our guiding light. The Emperor has been killed. Push these bastards like you’ve never pushed before. Give it all you got. FOR THE EMPEROR!!”
Things had apparently fully hit the fan. One of his troopers had come up to help guide them both asked "What do we do Boss?" Justice sighed, thinking before finally saying. "Get the transports ready. We are going home" The trooper must had looked at him like he must have been mad as he said questioningly. "But Boss the orders..." The orders, the orders... The orders to defend a undefendable place without any real chance of winning. Yeah, he didn't give a womp-rat's ass what the orders were anymore, all he knew that the garrison was his responsibility, and he needed to keep it alive. "The Moff can stuff it for all I care, she isn't one in the firing line or going to die by a tidal wave of fire when that SSD hits the water. Neither will she care any bit about us as we rest in our graves! I'll take the responsibility if need be. Everyone ready to move" Knowing that Justice wasn't going to change his mind, the trooper timidly nodded and went to do his task. A starship launch that housed a squadron of "Stork" dropships lie dormant in waterproofed hangers. These ships had been used to help bring materials to set up the shield generator and the base itself. The dock had been lowered into the sea to hide the massive ships so they could be used as a last-ditch escape plan. Hopefully there would be enough space for both the garrison and Yol Kan Yol Kan 's mercs behind. As he rushed Esmeralda inside one of the ships as the huge engines sluggishly start to hum to life, he hoped these slowboats would be able to make it off-world before it was too late.

As Yol frantically bounced forward he would see a line of large sliver ships soaring towards him, their large frames becoming as to make out the closer they got. Inside one of the cockpits, Justice was breathing down the pilots' necks to make sure they could get to him in time. Needless to say, it was going to be close, much closer than either man wanted. But these men and women hadn't forsaken him for dead in his hour, he wasn't going to do the same to them in theirs, even if it was his demise.

From the bridge of the command ship Nimian felt a little more at home than he otherwise would. Waterborne operations were not his forte, and it showed by how many tabs he had devoted to study on his personal data pad. He was trying to anticipate the moves of the rebels before they happened, which was rarely his strategy. Usually he was the force's recon element, relaying intel as it came. There was little need of that when the enemy was at the gates.

No, now survival was the name of the game. Something that made the commander's hair stand on end. He was never this close to the front, never so close to death.

Soon the alarms began ringing out. filling the ship with lights and noise. Sensor indicated a high speed projectile headed straight for them! "Commander! Enemy fire inbound! Sensors indicate possible torpedo attack!"

"Why in the hell are you wasting my time talking then?! Fire all point defense munitions at the incoming munitions, or find someone with a brain who can!" Bloody useless peons, always requiring him to tell them what to do. Now was not the time for...

And then he saw it, these were not torpedoes, these were Jedi. They had formed some kind of bubble around themselves and were firing themselves straight at the defensive line. No doubt hoping to board the ship and take out anything inside. This was something he'd long dreaded, an up close and personal battle with masters of the force.

"Have all defensive teams mobilize! Call Sergeant Morita and Breaker team to the bridge. I want us on high alert to repel boarders!"

A lone warrior bulleted through the water, a master of the elements moving the water around her like a spear.

The incoming point defense lasers were redirected, and Jonyna attached herself to the side of the imperial command ship. It was moments like this that made her miss her old crew. She could imagine it, the plan they would've come up with. Zash waiting above with an X-wing while Kraden tried to weasel his way into the ship with Hep at his side, all while Giran, Sevs, Odfrex and her took a different angle, all culminating in a masterpiece of rebel planning.

At least, that's how she remembered it. More often than not, their plans were hodgepodges of improvisation. Right now though, she missed it.

Alright, enough nostalgia. Get inside. For a moment, she focused entirely on keeping the bubble of air that she had made for herself stable, as she pulled her saber out with her tail, and began the process of cutting into the hull of this ship. She didn't need to flood it, though she knew that would be a byproduct of it. With an offhand, she pulled a rebreather from her utility belt, and prepped it, as she finally cut a large enough hole to-

And there it went. The bubble gave way, as Jonyna slipped into the ship with the massive wall of water behind her, controlling it's flow with the Force to not smash her into the wall, and flow her deeper into the ship.

She was sure they'd close that hole, but that wasn't the goal. She wasn't here to sink a ship, she was here to kill a Moff.

Her mind wandered back to that day on Cathar. The rebel knight standing tall over the body of a man she had just impaled with a katana. She'd do it again.

She wasn't afraid of imperials anymore. They had no Inquisitors, no Death Troopers, and certainly no Darth Vader.

Iona wanted to retort back she was seventeen and could do more than just be a nuisance on the battlefield. Her training had been guiding her in a different direction and unlike those in the Galactic Alliance's New Jedi Order, she did not wantonly kill. Even when it was the enemy. Always the last resort, even in this situation. If she was being on honest, the explosion and falling Star Destroyer were going to see a number of deaths - no need to add when she had not needed to. The shields were blown up, goal achieved.

Stumbled back to her cousin, their enemies were retreating. The pair had bigger problems literally on the horizon. The Star Destroyer was going to toss a massive tidal wave in their direction. Not all the friendlies would make it in time. They certainly wouldn't make it in time. There were a few options : drown, create a barrier around where they stood, or try to push the wave back.

"I think we can split the wave, save a lot of people."


Reaching out to the Force around her, with Jared's help, they would create a 'wedge' around themselves and TAC friendly-forces. In theory, the tidal waves would brush off to both sides, they may be sprayed with water but it wouldn't be the total devastation that was awaiting them. The biggest challenge? Holding the wedge long enough for things to calm down. For the waters to recede.

With such violent force, it shouldn't take long.





 
The hull of the ship gave way to the heat of the lightsaber attack, the durasteel armor meaning nothing to the Jedi's weapon. Nim could see the breach on his command console, and a chill ran down his spine. Such a hole was not the work of common explosives, this had to be something more...unique... "Jedi..." He said to himself.

Meanwhile a noticeably tall and broad stormtrooper made their way into the bridge. He was the aforementioned Sergeant that Nim had sent for. Not necessarily a friend, but a tool which Nim leveraged. Nim didn't have a friends as such, rather pawns that he played with, and Morita was possibly his favorite.

The screen nearest Nim lit up showing security feeds of the Jedi making a watery egress into the ship. It couldn't be, the Cathar from Christophsis! "I can't believe this! I know this Jedi... She is finally here to finish me off!"

"You know this crazy cat? No matter, she'll be dead soon enough... Breaker team! Form a defensive formation around the High value targets! Today we kill a Jedi!"
