Faction Shadows Reborn

[The Red of Sinner]

Rolling his shoulder where Adan had hit him, Romeo nodded at Stardust. "Normally....I wouldnt ever ask anyone to take point, but I kinda need to ask it this time." He was afraid of who he'd become once the adrenaline started pumping and the darkside began fueling him. Last time he let himself steep low, and take overkill tactics. It wasnt who he wanted to be.

The ship was now reaching the Shadow Realm system, the commandos were now shouldering weapons and prepared to jump if need be. Another thing that made Romeo a little unsure was his ability to be a leader still. He once failed them, twice. Now he was asking for them to trust them again for a third time....they did say third times were charms.

"Alright...we're approaching Eclipstica guys, pray the codes work or we're jumping off this ship real quick like."

Adan grabbed his friend by the shoulder, "Dont worry my friend everything will be alright, the codes will work. If not we will jump, I trust you with my life. If we have to jump do I need to put you on my back?"

Adan laughed as he said his last statement, but he felt something was bothering his old friend. Trying to comfort him with a joke before a invasion because this is exactly what this was, may have not been the right time. However thats how Adan was it was his way hyping up his allies and companions. Then he turns to Stardust and winks. "And you, I owe you a date and a good time after this."

Adan looked at them both. "We will be fine this is no different than old times, we come down kick ass and take names. Lets do this POODOO!!!"

Stardust turned towards her old friend, slamming a hand on her chest plate loudly as she spoke

I'm a Australis, we dont run from a fight, we embrace it and kick shebs to come out on top, believe me, with me on the front I can soak up fire with the beskar and throw back their blast with my sabers

She moved towards the drop ship door, rolling her shoulders as she glanced to Adan and chuckled before facing the door as she got in front

I'll hold you to that! And if we need to jump wouldnt be my first!

Romeo started to relax a bit. It was go time. So far the hailing the ship got from the planet seemed to be going okay. The commando flying explained they were on route to the keep to provide supplies ordered by the man on the throne that wasn't his. Not anymore.

"Alright, as soon as we land, we charge. They wont know whats coming." Romeo explained.

The ship was now nearing Eclipstica with all codes checking out. Within the next few moments, the ship breached the atmosphere, and made its way to the keep's personal landing pad. There was a hiss of the landing joints, and then silence as the hatch of the ship opened. The Commandos rushed out first, blaster fire, and launchers wrecking turret placements and soldiers of the First Order, A few commandos behind Romeo had the speeder prepared to move out, and provide cover fire.

Adan stood up slowly threw down his coat underneath having a heavy tactical vest with short sleeves. Also revealing his broad arms. He stepped out of the ship looking around. "I'm following your command boss man" He said as looked back at Romeo. Today was the day eclipistica got its king back and it freedom once more. "Damn you can smell the gloom in this air, its quite disgusting." There was alot going on from the get go. Explosions and blasters firing, commandos everywhere. It was war. It felt good for once.

War
A lifetime of war
That's what stars life was, at first she tried to escape it avoid it however later in life she embraced it when she became a mandalorian and soon after reveled in the heat of battle earning her title emerald dragon with pride

Soon as that door opened she began her push forward, leading the fight as she drew a blaster and saber, the white blade spring forth as blaster fire pinged off her armor, sounding like a target being hit except this target didnt stop moving sending bolts back before she grew irritated with a certain entrenched squad

Running forward her saber deavriced as she hopped up onto their defenses and inhaled, then roared out as burning flames leapt forward, like a dragon shooting flames she spread the flames then hopped into the trenches that was now aflame and began to tear through those that charged

This was the new dragon, 35 years of training before them

The mood inside the shadow keep was grim. The lack of men the the first order had kept on Eclipstica was proving to be fatally small. An enemy drop ship had managed to make it all the way to the landing pad on the keep without so much as a rock being thrown as a deterrent. The good general was seething, Salvor drank in his anger through the force, it was bitter and exhilarating.

“Does anyone know who these people are!?” Kjark shouted over the din of first order officers who were rushing around trying to gather intel on this most unexpected invasion.

“There are force users among them.” Salvor said to the general who stared dumbfoundedly at the yellow zabrak whom he had assumed was only a mere slave. The two knights of Renn left immediately at his words and headed for the platform looking to even the odds as much as they could.

“How do you know this?” Kjark quizzed Salvor

“The dark side is strong with them.” He said as he let the black cloak he had been wearing drop to the floor to reveal him standing in smoke colored tunic and pant with a lightsaber clipped to his left hip.

“And with me.”

The battle had began, shots were being fired on all sides with explosions indicating the commandos were winning. Romeo was walking down the ramp, keeping an eye out for anybody that might need that special kind of attention only Romeo knew how to give. It was, however, amazing to watch his old friends battle. Stardust had become quite the fighter with initiative. Watching her breathe fire was a fascinating, not even he had learned how to breathe fire.

But there was something else here, it had Romeo's attention to the fullest now. Romeo removed his weapon, a normal lightsaber, from his jacket inner pocket, and moved towards the keep doors. Every once in a while, he had to deflect stray blaster bolts back to senders, or duck to avoid being hit. However, by the time he reached the door, there were now two Knights of Ren standing before him.

"Adan, assist Stardust, there will be reinforcements soon, I'll take these guys." Romeo spoke as he stepped inside, closing the doors behind him.

"Just us now." He said as he activated the lightsaber in his hand. "Lets see of your First Order stands against my wrath."

Adan whistled a certain pattern and his howl runner came flying out of the ship. He whistled again and pointed to stardust and the howlrunner ran towards her and started attacking near by enemies releasing a loud, fierce, and shreaking howl. Adan ran up and attacked another group of enemies with a slam of a fist to the ground making it ripple and shake. He knew if felt good again to fight and destroy what needed it. "Reinforcements wont be enough to hold us even though we are clearly outnumbered. Time to start evening the odds." Adan using his pyrokinesis and flew up into the sky and reigned down fire as he flew around damn near engulfing everything he flew over. Stardust Solus Skirae The Red of Sinner Salvor Arnex

“Our order is eternal.” one of the Renn answered in a heavily modulated voice.

The two ren ignited their own weapons ready to duel with the dark Jedi master who had just entered into the keep.

“You two go outside and kill the other two force sensitives before they over run our defense.” a voice called from the far side of the hall opposite the door at Romeo’s back.

The two Knights tilted their helmeted faces over their shoulders to glance back at whomever had the gall to give them orders. The shock of seeing the yellow-skinned zabraki slave was hidden behind their masks but it was nothing compared to the shock they felt when he ignited a lightsaber!

“Your sith?” one of the knights of Renn exclaimed at the sight of the crimson-bladed weapon.

“Go.” Salvor commanded as a response. Yes, he was Sith, an apprentice only but that was not something that needed to be shared at this moment.

The two Knights deactivated their weapons, turned and took off the way they had come in passing Salvor as they went to find an alternate route to the landing pad.

“Just us now.” The Zabrak called out to The Red of Sinner

 

[The Red of Sinner]

The presence he had felt before was now here, coming every step closer to Romeo. A Zabrak with golden skin appeared from the darkness behind the Rens, a young man full of hatred and darkness. It was if the Force had lead them both here, Romeo could feel it, a certain destiny that was meant to happen here.

"You're on the wrong side, Sith." Romeo spoke as he got into a offensive position.

Within him, the Force began to pool up, giving him powers beyond his natural standing. The Dark Side fueled him, and seeped out of him as he continued to overflow with it. His connection deepened as Romeo was in full focus now, prepared for the duel ahead. Romeo's grip on his saber tightened as he took in a breath, and as the air escaped his lungs in a single action and blink of the eye Romeo had already cleared the gap between them with an overhead chop ready to come down on the Zabrak's head.

Fire...by all that was glorious fire was one thing stardust found such a glorious beautiful thing. Within this moment stardust was in the middle of a fire storm commanding it as enemies fell before her, either by saber or blaster, to the heat of the combined flame of Adan and stardust bringing a harsh judgment on those before them

She was
At peace

The chaos and destruction was a symphony to her, each movement as she flowed around blaster fire and vibro blades was a dance of death. However the crescendo was yet to come

Within the back of her mind she felt the real challenge approaching, away her blaster went to draw that second saber, black blade springing forth as she took a deep breath.

Adan...we have company it would appear...

A man tried to charge her bayonet affixed, however a raised hand dropped him, his body writhing as shatter points would coursed through him and shatter hin...leaving but a armored body bag

[Adan Jax]

Adan landed from his flight, the firery blaze he caused flickered in his eyes. He whistled a pattern again and his howlrunner came flying through a wall of fire and she had an enemies head in her mouth. "Good girl" He petted her head as he looked up he saw what Stardust was talking about. A couple of Ren showed up to have some fun. Adan pulled out his saber it came on with a hum and a red glow. "Lets have some fun, you ready star?" Adan yelled out to her. They were going to foght together as team and having a damn good time doing so. "Ladies first" he held his hand out and winked.

Salvor’s opponent leapt through the air with blinding speed but Salvor was ready. He had been training to become a Sith lord, to achieve his destiny for the last five year at the foot of a blade master. Battle with a lightsaber was Salvor’s greatest strength, something the man before him would quickly learn.

Salvor’s feet shifted slightly and his hips opened up as he brought his own red bladed saber up to meet the attack of the opponent not just to block but to turn the attack away. If he was successful Salvors opponent’s momentum would make it so everything below his waist was facing toward Salvor but his upper body would be turned leftward enough that Salvor would have a profile view of the Dark Jedi. More over if Salvor’s parry was successful he would immediately disengage his saber from Romeo’s and take a swing at the back of his head.

If however it was not successful, the most likely outcome would be the two of them with their sabers locked together in a block position.

And so it began, the instance had become a locking of energy blase, the sizzling of the power crackled between the two as Romeo got a better look at his opponent. Up close and personal now, Romeo stared into the man's eyes as their weapons continued to hiss with anger. Who ever this man was, he was good. His reflexes and wit were true, and suspension began to rise that this fight might take more than speed to win.

Still, the dark side was swirling around them, a whirlpool of emotions. Romeo leap back, ending the locking of their weapons. It became quiet as the two stood only a few feet from one another.

"I felt the pressure, you were trying to parry my saber out of my hand." Romeo started. "It would have worked on a novice, but clearly you understand Im not a dueling partner of fresh blood. It will take more than that to win against me, Sith."

She chuckled, bowing a little and then turned towards the ren, neck popping as she spun her blades around and let a roar out. A few soldiers got in her way were soon turned into nothing but corpses in pieces

Then there was that ren, funny enough she had fought alongside them, now she was fighting what remained of the once great first order...honestly made her sad a bit...however now wasnt the time for emotions like that.

The two would meet, sabers clashing sending flashes across the area, the two wrestled for control before splitting and danced around the area, dodging their respective sides blaster fire and occasionally sending few bomts back

 

[Adan Jax]

Adan whistled to his howlrunner letting her know that they will fight as a team two on one. Adan didnt need it but if there was a free option to do so he would take it. The Adan charged at one of the Ren with lighting speed which was possible for him because of his implants and a second later his howlrunner did the same. They started brawling left and right dodging eachothers attacks but then the howlrunner came up from behind tearing into the Ren he would turn around swing at it hitting it but it would prove useless the least he would do is knock it back. At that moment Adan leaped forward grabbing the Ten with his hands lifting him and bending him backwards and breaking his back folding him legs to shoulders. "Ive come to liking my kills with my bare hands." He threw the Ren as he spoke. Stardust Solus Skirae Salvor Arnex The Red of Sinner

 

[Salvor Arnex]

Salvor stared at the man standing across from him and snarled. Salvor slowly stalked forword with strong deliberate steps, swinging his saber at the shoulder on the left side of the man standing in front of him stopping just shy of striking and instead spinning and slashing now on Sin’s right, once again slowing his strike at the last second, pulling his shot just short before adjusting the saber in his hands and taking his true strike low hoping to slice off his enemy’s legs.

The Zabrak was now coming at him, with some intensity too, it was a little comical that someone had to put that much effort into steps to come at Romeo, but he stood his ground. He allowed the Force to once more swell, and guide his movements. With the Zabrak on him now, there was a ping in the back of Romeo's skull, with each strike at him, there was no immediate danger coming from them, so Romeo made minor adjustments to play along until the Sith came with his true swing.

Blade coming down, once more the sabers locked as the Force told Romeo this was the dangerous strike. For a moment, they held this locking stance. Once more able to see each other closely.

With a shake of his head, Romeo let the Force expel from him as his foot moved forward, grinding against the floor. This caused massive flames to erupt from under his foot, coming a wave towards the Zabrak.
