It took a few minutes to pound her way through the blast door. It had been more heavily reinforced than she had thought, maybe a tougher material than the one she had breached further down. It did not matter. Soon enough there was an opening beaten into the door big enough for her seven foot frame (219 cm) to walk through. As soon as her form, wreathed in green flames was visible, heavy blaster fire caught her. Through the haze of the force, and her abilities, none of them hit particularly hard, but many left marks. It only took her a second to begin weaving between the bolts, not much different than predicting their path with her saber, just dodging instead of deflecting.
The bridge had a little chokepoint before it opened to the consoles and command station, this was where a dozen armored troops, two of which were manning a big repeating blaster, and almost twice that in officers. Enough to fill the bridge of it's main roles at least, but no obvious captain, though that could simply be because of the skeletal nature of the ships crew. Khamesi focused on the bigger threats first, ducking below another hail of bolts from the repeater, and coming up under the barrel. Rather than smashing the gun, she grabbed hold of it, one foot snapping around in a vicious kick to the temple of the man that had been firing it. He careened to the side, landing in a heap on the floor, face burning. Next her claws flashed and cut down the man next to him, giving her total control of the blaster. Not that it would last for long, it was a properly made military weapon, but even they didn't like exposure to flames fueled by the force.
She turned the blaster in an arc, pressing the trigger down and simply spraying without any care for what she hit. Three of the officers dropped while they were trying desperately to back away from the crazy Sith who obviously favored being close. Two troopers were injured, but their armor kept them alive. Once she was done with the spray, she lifted the heavy blasted, and used it as a massive bludgeon to smash one of the injured troopers into the floor, leaving her there as the life faded from her body. She turned on another trooper as a bolt nearly catches her, the rest of the group was recovering from her charge.
She yanked the still living but injured trooper from the ground, using him to absorb several bolts, before flinging him into the cluster of troops, knocking two off their feet as the third manages to scramble out of the way. She moves in a blur of power and motion, one fist catching an officer in the jaw, and snapping her neck as the other lifted her partner from the ground and slammed him onto the floor with a
crunch. Weaving back to the other side of the room as they resumed trying to shoot her, she used her foot to send a trooper flying through hole in the blast door and into the elevator shaft. He could survive if he's fast enough to recover and catch himself somehow, but he'd be out of the way for awhile. A cyroban grenade pops free from her belt and she tosses it deeper in where several officers and a pair of troops are retreating. She doesn't wait for it to go off before she's breaking the neck of another soldier.
With half the armored troops dead, the rest were beginning to panic as she used her shoulder to drive a seventh into the wall, the metal denting and keeping him upright as he got one of the faster deaths in this group. She whirled around as two tackled her, finding her an imposing wall of muscle enhanced by the brutal energies of the dark side. They must have been confident their armor would protect them from the flames still wreathing her, and they were correct, but not much else. Her knee came up on one of them, caving his chest in. She turned her attention to the other trooper who know had a vibroknife in his hand. She caught it as it came in to try and stab her, twisting his wrist it snapped like a twig and she caught the knife as it dropped. She proceeded to drive it through the visor of his helmet, and kick his body across the room, where he slid limp down the wall.
At this point her grenade exploded, one of the troopers escaped but the three officers and the last trooper are frozen in place as the supercooled chemical sprays across them. That leaves eighteen, with only two being armored troops. She turns to find them having retreated behind some of the consoles on the bridge, a grenade clacking to her feet. She reacted quickly, redirecting it into the elevator shaft where the concussion grenade detonated. She growled and surged forward, catching one armored trooper in the face with her fist, before spinning and kicking his body hard enough that he slammed into the viewport on the opposite end of the room. The final trooper raised her rifle, shaking as she pressed the trigger, trying to spray Khamesi with automatic fire. She raised her hand and caught a few of the bolts, negating most of the energy resulting in only a tender spot on her hand before ripping the rifle from the woman's hand. Turning it, she pressed it against the woman's chin, and pulled the trigger, the helmet held for the first shot, but the second and third punched through.
She turned and grabbed an officer trying to knife her, and used him like a ragdoll, slamming him into another officer, and then raising her foot and finishing them both. The rest was fairly easy to mop up, most dropped with only a single strike, some were lucky or skilled enough to need a second. As she turned to finish off the last two, she found them having thrown their guns to the side, surrendering to the crazed warrior before them. She let the flames fade from her body before grabbing them both by the throat.
"
Codes. Now."
They stuttered out the codes for the ships systems, which she put in after dropping one to the ground, and found herself in the computers. She smiled.
"
You will be most useful."
Before knocking them both unconscious and binding their hands before blindfolding them. With her now in control of the ships systems, she began lifting various blast doors in the paths of the forces boarding it, and unlocked the elevators for everyone as she rerouted power from the life support in the crew quarter. It'd take some time to get uncomfortable, but at least now they had control of the ship, it was just about wrapping up what resistance was left. She used the ships intercoms to make a broadcast, alerting everyone on the ship.
<<
This ship has been seized. The bridge has fallen. Lay down your weapons, or you will suffer most painful deaths. Continue to defy us, and I will begin venting sections of the ship. Our troops at least are protected from the void, can you say the same?>>
She knew most would not surrender, and most other Sith probably wouldn't accept it, but her own Ash Dragons were trained to take prisoners, whether for intel, ransom, or to break into new recruits, there'd be at least a few survivors. She went ahead and locked down the boarding pods. They could be overridden, but that would take time the remaining dredges of resistance could not afford. Even if they sent everything they had to retake the bridge, they would be cut down like all the rest. She spent a moment to reconfigure the ships IFF, broadcasting a Sith signal now, indicating to the rest of the fleet that at least the bridge was now under Sith control.
