Invasion Oderint Dum Metuant | The First Order Invasion of Galactic Alliance held Mustafar Hex

[Elpsis Kerrigan]

Location: Mustafar, Vader's Castle
Objective: Making an exit with [member="Taryc Ap'Irae"]

"This is bollocks. Why are we retreating? We were wiping the floor with the Sithies," Elpsis exclaimed, feeling rather baffled by the sudden and in her opinion illogical order to withdraw. However, there was no time to ponder this, for more of the droids appeared. Her bolter roared, expelling ion rounds to wreck them up, and she helped Taryc to stand when her lover stumbled and fell. Up they went and boarded one of the waiting ships. Soon their transport lifted off, leaving the fire and brimstone world behind them.


Elpsis felt angry, but then Taryc's condition took precedence. "I'll stay with you," she promised when Taryc was taken to the medical ward. "We'll fix up your hand. Or get you a new one. Don't melt it again!" She was at the Inquisitor's side when she was sedated, touching her face with her callused hand while using her empathic gifts to make sure Taryc would have sweet, pleasant dreams. In her haste, Elpsis had not noticed the grenade canister till it was discovered by a GA minion, but it was found to be inactive and harmless. The eggheads got something to study, Elpsis stayed with her lover and eventually joined her in the realm of Morpheus.

[Asmus Janes]

Location: Mustafar skies over Mining Facility
ALLIES: [member="Elliot Locke"] | [member="Choli Vyn"] [member="Alyce Hawke"]
ENEMIES: [member="Rexus Wenck"] [
Gear: TX-110 and blaster in Sig, Sniper Drone

The Sniper drone that had dropped from his ship wasted no time in stabilising itself and hunkering down behind a pile of smooth, obsidian rocks. Asmus had already given it a priority target. The long ranged laser cannon swivelled around as it honed in on Rexus. It fired with machine precision. The heavy cannon bolt lanced across the ground for the stormtrooper's chest. It gave it's position away with the shot, but the drone always came with a limited lifespan. Cut a few officers in half and slow the advance before being taken out.

Asmus had decided to take a risk. The enemy was starting to gather again after the reactor went critical. The Subversion was moving far above the world, ready for an emergency pick up. The Wraith and former Rogue diverted the power from the missile launcher, most engine power and the hyperdrive to shields. His craft crossed the space in a heartbeat, keeping barely above the terrain. If she couldn't hear him she might see him at least.

The canopy of the two-seater pilot swing back as he cruised past Choli, dipping his wing in her direction.

 

[Choli Vyn]

[member="Asmus Janes"]

Things were moving so fast, and Choli was in such pain. The grenade hit the ground, bursting with shrapnel and expelling the gas out upon the pilot. A cry fell from her lips as she was struck, causing her to stumble. The sear of the gas bound to her clothing, and in a natural desperation and wanting to get away, Choli took a breath.

The whirr of [member="Asmus Janes"] over head along with the cover of [member="Alyce Hawke"] provided a small window of opportunity. By the time the Wraith commander came, Choli knew she had very little time.

Bundling the Force within her, using what bit of knowledge she'd gleaned from her training, the woman bunched her legs up and gave a jump.

She landed, hard, rolling into safety within the cabin amidst the volley of blaster bolts and staggering pain that made her feel as if her lungs were on fire.

Everything hurt, nausea took her, and her sight began to fade.

By the time Alliance forces had pulled out of Mustafar, the Rogue was in critical condition.
