A hoarse cry came from Abel as Loske slapped her hands onto his back, her fingers touching a long patch of torn and burnt flesh that had been obscured by the tattered remains of his cloak. Blue eyes welling with tears of pain turned to look up at her. She was saying something. He couldn't hear it, but it was clear she needed his help.
The young padawan struggled to rise, pushing with all his might, willing himself to stand not for himself but for those in need. Abel made it to his feet and swayed, unlit lightsaber in hand, eyes sweeping the dark horizon. They needed to get out of here and get those people to safety.
"We should-"
Contrails in the sky.
Fireballs blossoming in the slave pens in brilliant bursts of red-orange flame. All at once, dozens upon dozens of presences vanished from the Force. Abel felt as though the air had been knocked from his lungs. He couldn't breath and he couldn't tear his eyes away from those crackling flames.
The whole of it happened in silence, nothing but the terrible ringing in his ears.
I failed. They're all dead now, because we failed.
Abel stumbled forward, heedless of his own safety, determined to search the pens for someone, anyone who he could help.
