I had also thrown up a barrier to protect myself and the troopers near me and when the flames clear, I grimace. However, I wasn't convinced either of them was dead. "Well...we're back to square one..."

"I don't give a damn! Hayden, Jakito, Becca, focus everything you can into breaking that shield!" I focus a powerful build up of the Force into the palms of my hands after deactivating my lightsabers. "Your time ended centuries ago, Traya! Go back to hell!"

Spotting the droids, I curse under my breath and use the Force to send one trio flying. "And how did surrendering and coming in for questioning end for Becca and Jakito Twilight?!" Reaching out with the Force again, I yank one of the handlers towards me and spin, slicing the man in two. "When are you going to realize that you're little more than puppets to that man?!"

I slice through a pair of troopers and turn to see the Chaos that's erupted, deflecting a shot from the Supreme Commander in his mechanized combat suit. Not entirely sure what was happening, but acknowledging that we had the edge, I jet back into the fray, unleashing one of my prototype cryoban rockets into the mechanized armor to see what happens. "It's over, Supreme Commander! How about we avoid getting more lives wasted here?"

"Indeed she is." Even from here, it was becoming clear that the Republic forces were already loosing the fight and their morale was failing. If they were not told to surrender soon, it would turn into a route.

"Any other day, I'd argue with you about this. Today?" Twin rockets impact the two squads in front of me, sending them flying through the air as I ignite my sabers. "Lets just get this over with." Lunging forwards, I engage a third squad from well within their discomfort zones.

I had followed Hayden's gaze and even though we had wanted him dead, I wasn't convinced that he would stay that way as the blood started to pool. Still, the sounds of approaching Republic ships couldn't be ignored and I lower Hayden towards the ground at a pace matching mine. Opening a channel, I try to reach Ava. "Manda'lor, resume your attack! This is a limited window of opportunity!"

I spot the tumbling forms as they fall and catch a wisp of white hair in the second form's shape. "Hayden!" Jetting after them, I push my jetpack as fast as it would go. As I get closer, I recognize that the person she was in the midst of pummeling was Jorg Sucal. "Hayden, he's not worth your life!" Finally getting close enough, about a hundred feet from the ground and grab her with the Force and pull her off the doomed man, or hope he's doomed. Hayden kicked and strained against my invisible hand and I keep her far enough from myself that she can't get me with her hands. "You're welcome by the way."

I look around, trying to find any of the others, but not having any luck. Sucal couldn't be allowed to escape and so when Becca's message came through, it caught me off guard and I almost flew into the building. "Ah! Becca, sorry. Was just a little too focused. Satele appeared, clashed with Sucal. I don't know what exactly was happening on her side of it all, but she got close enough to him that there was the explosion. I can't find her, Sucal or Salazar."

The explosion of energy sent me sailing through the air and I lost sight of Salazar, Satele and Sucal, tumbling before I was finally able to activate my jetpack and steady myself in the air. The balcony we had all been on was destroyed and the walls scorched black and no sign of where the others had landed, not that I could see.

"Now's not th-" I realize what Satele is going to do and I turn my attention back to her. "Satele, no!"
