Star Wars(AU) - After Knightfall

Talia Je'and-The Citadel, Mandalore

"She's gonna kill me, she's so gonna kill me!" Wearing her favorite cyan dress with its pair of matching heels, Talia Je'and ran to where she was supposed to meet with her sister and their friends to go out and enjoy a night of rest after they'd all gotten back from a rather long series of escort and guard missions making sure that Mandalorian Republic's transports and cargo ships made it to their destinations with as little raider interaction as possible. Of course, the threat of lightsaber-y death wasn't always enough to convince pirates there was safer prey and so a few corpses had to be made before they left the ship alone. Right now, however, she was more worried about how her sister was going to react to her tardiness.

To be fair, as she dodged around a pair of Padawans talking excitedly about the Founding, it wasn't entirely her fault. She had been in a section of the archives and had simply lost track of time while reading about the history of the Jedi with that of the Mandalorians. Admittedly, it wasn't as great as her initial research had suggested. It was the Jedi Knight Revan who'd broken the Mandalorian push during the Mandalorian Wars and while the clans held Revan in high respect, it had set the Mandalorians to have several more clashes with the Jedi over the next several centuries. From what the young woman could find, those conflicts had been incredibly bloody and cost both sides more lives than the previous wars.

Caught up in her reminiscing on her findings, Talia only barely managed to avoid another group of Jedi. One conflict in particular during the course of the Mandalorian Wars had always interested her, and that was one of the final battles, that of Malachor V. Rumor had it there were still lots of ships, both old Republic and Mandalorian, floating in orbit around the world and she'd always-"Watch our, young Je'and!" Startled, she barely managed to stop herself before crashing into another Jedi, this one being none other than the librarian Airus.

"Master Airus, I'm so sorry! I was caught up in going over my findings in my head, I might have let my awareness of my surroundings slip. Combine that with being in a rush to meet up with my twin sister, and, well," Talia smiles sheepishly, "again, I'm so sorry."

I use the Force to cushion the blows as Trayus slams me into the ground, though it still hurts. I wait until he lifts me again before launching another blue fireball at him. While he claimed to be all powerful, his clothes still burned and that alone was an unpleasant experience, no matter who you were or how powerful. Picking myself up, I shake my head. "No, only a fool would seek to unbalance another fool in such a way. I had hoped to remind you that you stood for something, that you stood on your own, once upon a time. You had proven yourself a capable fighter without the Force, had helped lead the Republic's forces to victory when the Oricon fleet's admiral gave in to the Dread Master's terror inflicting abilities. Your only concern was Nox."

Jerus Je'and

"Of course she is...alright, guess we're boarding then! We need to find an opening, like a hangar bay."

Jerus Je'and

"We'll leave Trayus to the others. This Station has to fall. Everyone, bring it down!" Punching my thrusters, the Shadow Stalker soars forwards and unleashes a barrage of concussion missiles on the station, aiming for anything that looked like an amplification dish.

Zar'kun Je'and

"No retort for that, Trayus? Or should I call you the ghost of Jorg Sucal? Even the ghosts bound to you weren't done by your own will, they were stolen from another and bound to you through Kreia." Trayus and I begin circling each other. "None of that power is truly yours, but you're too blinded by how it feels to see that. What would the patriot you used to be say to what you've become? Or your parents?"

HK-49 "Hank"

"Bold Statement: Charge weapons and attack, Master HJ. We might not be of much help against the Sith Lord, but his Station we can fight." As if to punctuate my statement, a familiar voice crackles through on the com.

Jerus Je'and

"Did somebody call the cavalry?!" The combined Aderaanian, Republic, and Mandalorian fleet drops out of orbit and begins to open fire on the station as fighters soar out of their bays. "Where are the others HJ?"

Zar'kun Je'and

Blue flames still roil along the length of my sabers as I stand ready to cross blades with Trayus again. "Indeed it is unfair. That six trained and experienced wielders of the Force are against the meat puppet of an old hag being fed the power of lives they forced a young girl to take by force. Truly a terrifying sight."

Zar'kun Je'and

"That's time we don't have!" Closing my eyes, I allow the Force to guide each stroke of my blades as I slash through the lightsabers hidden in Sucal's sandstorm. After a couple of minutes, I focus on building energy in the palm of my hands. "Focus the Force into a ball and then slam it into the ground at the same time! That should dispel this sandstorm."

Alice Durana

My saberstaff spins around me and intercepts all the sabers that it can, and those it can't, a liberal use of my telekinetics prowess helped to redirect or use rocks to block. I couldn't find Zar'kun in the mess of blades after Trayus forced him away and I am still trying to fight my way to the ghost possessed husk.

Zar'kun Je'and

Another Force Repulse, lighting crackling through out it, knock away the wave of sabers, shorting them out, and I cup my hands briefly before igniting a blue fireball and hurling it into Trayus' back to hopefully give Salazar an opening. "Quit hiding behind Sucal, Kreia! Face us yourself!"

"A super weapon called the Death Star. Such a weapon had already had its construction begun by the end of the Clone Wars and it does not give us time to evacuate entire planets like Anubis' show here did. A single beam which takes mere minutes to power up, if that, and the planet's core detonates. We can't let that stay floating around out in the nether."

Zar'kun Je'and

My twin black blades lock against the pair in Trayus' hands and Alice spins away, scattering her rocks in multiple directions to destroy many of the sabers as her saberstaff sliced through as many more as she could. "Your ending, Kreia, was centuries ago when the Jedi Exile Meetra Surik put an end to your ambitions." I push back against Trayus and exchange blows with him twice more, blue flame alighting both my saber blades in response to the electricity crackling on his. "And hiding behind a broken man who's lost everything he cares about is a new low, even for the Lord of Betrayel."

Zar'kun Je'and

I don't move as the barrage of sabers flies towards me, and Alice joins me. We glance at each other and then nod. With an shout, the two of us slam our fists into the ground and unleash a pulse of Force power, scattering the sabers in all directions as they collided with the wave. It even reaches Trayus, sending more of the sabers around him flying away. "All that power, Trayus, and still no real control. Like an infant with a new toy."

Alice Durana

"Are you sure," I ask as we stand, "that antagonizing the man who just threw hundreds, if not thousands, of lightsabers at us is a good idea?"

Zar'kun Je'and

I shake my head and slide into my own ready stance and close my eyes. "To think all this came from a man who feared the Sith so much he could no longer see the difference between good and evil. It's sad really."
