Nocturno stepped out onto the sandy wastes which Utapau was made of, such a place did not suggest it was of importance but Nocturno knew well of the systems worth in the galaxy. The droid commander turned his head to gaze upon his droids exiting the shuttle, they marched in lines as if they were preparing to go into battle with flintlock rifles. The droids may not think as freely as organics, but they felt no fear and they did not think twice to sacrifice their "lives", sometimes that was all that was needed to win a battle.
"We're going to have to repel down, give the enemy a surprise. Our first target is the anti-air fixtures. Whist we attack those, the additional troops can focus on holding the line and preventing the entire city from falling to these rogues." The Grandmarshal notified, his blaster rifle at his shoulder.
Nocturno nodded, stepping towards the ledge of the pit and gazing down into it with his icy, robotic eyes. With his unnatural eyesight, he scanned and took note of where the rebel troops were across the walls of the pit. There were major skirmishes towards the bottom and multiple Tolmalok Anti-Aircraft Walkers were scaling the sides of the settlement to get a clear shot at any shuttles looking to insert men inside. There was no doubt that the walkers could use their laser flak canons to annihilate them as they repelled down, they would need a distraction.
"
I agree, but those walkers are in our way." Nocturno said calmly as he knelt down, fighting through the immense pains, and stroked his hand across the side of the rock. The rock was chipping away easily in his hands, it was obviously not the most stable. So many centuries must finally be causing the rock formations to decay, the buildings themselves are probably what was keeping Pau City together. Once again, Nocturno looked down to the very depths of the pit. At the surface he could see that there was a command post of sorts that was crawling with the rebels, who worse dark red uniforms to signify their loyalty. If Nocturno had to guess, that command post was where the rebels first launched their attack from. It made sense really, the buildings seemed strong and sturdy and it was segregated from the rest of the city so when it was attacked no one would notice right away if it was fast enough.
"
I think now would be a good time for me to pay the rebels a visit." Nocturno looked to the Grandmarshal before calling over his squadron of droids "
I'll take the express way down." Nocturno purred in a sadistic manner that made his joke burn the senses like dry ice "
Follow me." He commanded plainly to his troops before stepping off the side of the pit as if it were nothing. The droids followed in suit, plummeting off the side and leaving Genesis's men to stare off in awe.

Air pushed past the metal body of the droid commander as he fell through the air, his body slowly shifting so that his right arm was nearly hugging the wall as he fell. The droids above him fell in suit, their weapons ready to fire the grappling hooks inside. No fear, no regret, just focus and intentions to kill the enemy. Nocturno, watched as he fell straight towards his target, an anti-aircraft walker clinging to the side of the wall. 500 meters, 400 meters, 300 meters and closing. Nocturno knew exactly what he was going to do and executed it without fault.
The droid commander shoved his metallic fingers into the stone as he fell. Sparks shot out in every direction and the unstable rocks began to shower across the metallic hull of the walker. As the 60 meter mark approached, Nocturno quickly grabbed a charge from a hard case in his leg and threw it down towards the walker. As he did this, he called for his droids to fire their grappling hooks, so that they would not fall to their death. Then, without hesitation, Nocturno clicked the detonator as the charge fell between the four legs of the walker.
The explosion shook the entire pit, smoke, ash and rock debris shot out in every direction as the flames spat into the air. The walker was mainly unharmed, but the rock face it stood on was not. Within seconds a large slab of the cavern came loose and a vertical rock slide began, throwing boulders and slabs of stone down to the bottom of the pit with the walker. That had gotten the rest of the walker's attention and now they all turned their flak cannons on Nocturno's position. The commander was able to let go just in time to miss being obliterated by the green flak rounds that began showering the rocks. Again he was free falling towards the bottom of the pit, his droids doing the same as they detached their grappling hooks. All of the walkers were focused on destroying this lunatic of a soldier, igniting the air with explosions of green lasers and distracting them from anything that Genesis and his forces may do.
Nocturno fell through the hail of laser flak, watching as the stones began impacting with the ground below and demolishing multiple buildings. At the last moment, Noctuno forced his hand back and grabbed his pistol. Taking quick aim, he shot the hook into a nearby rock face and came to a violent stop a few meters off the ground. Quickly the commander dropped to the floor, his droids copying his exact movements and lowering themselves to the ground around him.
"
Leave none alive."
