Public Raid on Kattada

[Vodet]

Well, at least Quill was honest. The Yinchorri nodded. Not everyone had a past of a crusader. Maybe that was part of what Starchaser saw in Vodet to make him the Steward. That or some gross tomato eating skill.

The being that was in front of them was sending Bryn’adul vibes and Vodet did remember the Scar Worlds. It was what threw him into this life in the first place. With the shots coming from the direction of Jend-Ro, it quickly became an explosion. His arm was up to protect his face, but he also partially withdrew into the shell, additional species protection. Being of his size, however, the Yinchorri did not move.

The rain was picking up outside, and Vodet was going to use that to his advantage. The Jedi Sage called on the rain that was entering through the destruction of the temple, hands together, saber in one, but not primed for attack, Vodet bent the water to create a geyser from his hands, pointed at the hammer and face of this Sith.

Arris twisted her gaze to see if Jared was still following. That was right when a flying coconut smacked her square between the eyes. It threw the cyborg off enough that she lost her stride, smashed into a structural beam, and fell to the temple floor with an audible crash. She swore one of her servos popped, but she wasn't sure where - that was going to bite her in the ass later.

The scoundrel groaned and scooped her pistol as she sat up. The impact had disoriented her cyber eyes, like a migraine for a camera. Her vision kept cutting in and out as she stumbled down the hall. A yellow lightsaber ignited before her, held by a wounded Jedi who looked to have been hurt by the recent rubble. Were it not for the rush of stimulants and that feeling again, he might've got her.

Instead, Arris fired another cortosis shell, which shorted the weapon. The Jedi didn't even notice until the end of his swing. His confusion was to be his undoing, as Arris drew her slugger and fired point-blank. Her eyes flashed again. For a second, she thought she saw Vagabond ...

No - it was the Jedi, dropped and lifeless.

A dark feeling overwhelmed her senses, like the Kaggath was intent on haunting her every step of the way. The violence, the rush... she looked down at the wound Jared gave her. She could even sense fear in the air, that most familiar friend. Not only from those they had been fighting, but those they had come for. The padawans were nearby, and the Force swirled around them, preying upon their anxiety.

The surge in the Force was enough to make Valery's focus snap forward. She felt the Sith's intent even before the crimson blade came into view, and her own saber hissed alive, violet light cutting through the chaos around them.

The moment Anathemous came down with the weight of her power, Valery moved. Her body shifted with a burst of speed, feet sliding across the torn earth as the kinetic force of the strike ripped into the ground where she had been standing. Shards of stone and dirt burst outward, the impact echoing like thunder across the field.

Straightening from her evasive roll, Valery brushed a loose strand of hair from her face. A smirk curved at the corners of her lips, orange eyes steady on the armored figure before her. "Sword?" she echoed, "Do we know each other?"

Her stance shifted, blade lifted into guard, her presence burning brighter in the Force as she anchored herself for what was to come. "Come then," she said, her voice carrying over the sounds of battle.

"Try again."

[Jared Starchaser]

The chance to use his environment was something his father and ‘aunt’ always had him do. A coconut wasn’t as great as some of the rubble, but it was right by his hand. Still, he was on his feet and running. And the chance the hit would land? He wasn’t even certain it would have. As he ran, he pulled his saber from the sand, and into his hand.

The handle was gritty and covered but he leapt through the hole. This was going to need some repairs. But first, kicking these people off the planet.

As he landed his flip, bare feet bleeding from cuts of glass and small stones, he was projecting into that place Jedi went, where they could leave their body behind and focus on their goals.

"You have the chance to leave..." E-Wings entering atmosphere above them. "If you go, now."

Quinn could feel eyes on her, from where — she couldn't tell. Still, she needed to get inside. Slipping easily into the holes created by the others, the Princess continued on her way. The vault should be nearby, but as she drew closer, the sound of fighting continued to grow louder. Perhaps it was a foolish thought that she could enter the temple and face no one.

Up until now, it had been a seemingly easy endeavor for her to use the cover of others. But now she was drawing closer to the fighting, to the point she even heard the echoes of the Sword of the Jedi being summoned to fight.

'Interesting,' she thought quietly. She hadn't expected to have the appearance of the former Grandmaster of the New Jedi to appear. The woman from Quinn's knowledge seemed to have disappeared after Coruscant. Still, those were rumors, and they couldn't always be trusted. Either way, it was best to steer clear of her.

Quinn continued to tiptoe, her cloak pulled up over her head and tightly wrapped around her shape. The Force started to feel dense, the light clinging to items, which only meant that she was drawing closer to the vault. A part of her wondered what could be locked away. What items could she grab easily and head off the planet? Quinn smiled, knowing that because they were protected, it meant they were valuable.

Her footsteps echoed under the guise of combat as she moved. Each hallway twisted into the next as the fighting continued.

It was sudden, but the hallway and the vaults seemingly had been suddenly cut off from her. As the titans barreled through the wall, Quinn covered her face and instinctively threw a barrier of the Force to protect herself. Her cloak billowed in the wind that was created from the fighting.

As the initial effects wore off, Quinn cursed and decided she needed to find a different route. Trying to weave her way through the battle between Gerra, Quill, and Vodet was going to get her killed.

Turning on her heel, she ran back the other way.

Still, she felt the eyes on her, whoever it was, seemed to be drawing closer.

Voices began to fill Arris's mind. They weren't words she could really make sense of, but the feelings stuck to her thoughts like old resurfaced traumas. They were the thoughts and emotions of this place - of the padawans, the Jedi, even her fellow raiders - though she hadn't consciously realized it.

She only snapped out of it when Jared's voice called to her. Gave the dead Jedi a little kick, just to make sure, and turned around.

Arris twirled both guns and holstered them, then sauntered towards him. One metal hand felt up the cauterized cut of her synthflesh. She rubbed the ash between her fingers.

"Hey, man. We've all got babes waiting on us, so let's make this quick."

With that, the cyborg summoned a burst of speed and entered a full sprint towards him.

 

[Aris Noble]

Dun Moch, right? Aris leapt forward, his blade high as he brought down a heavy slash. A first, just to give Acier space to get up after the push. Then the Knight fell into rhythm. He was much taller than the other two, and he was clearly skilled at using it to his advantage. More so, he was watching and reacting with Acier.

Every strike from the other boy was accompanied by one from Aris trying to punch through the Sith's guard, to upset and unbalance. It was eerily precise, as if he knew just how Acier was going to strike to capitalize with his own. Again and again, trying to swiftly overwhelm before the Sith could counter.

​

Even when closing the distance, The blaster rounds flinging themselves into the pillar that she hid behind. Barely, I could hear words being spoken. And in that very moment, with no kind of latiency, a hail of fire rained down from the ceiling. Blasting through whatever defenses that the Enclave had, no matter the distance between the outside walls and the ships raining down overhead. Called as if they were waiting there.

Already being on the move, I reached the other side of the pillar in which this Sith was on. Breathing heavy as I looked to my arm. A gash searing through the clothing and the jacket. The bolt close enough that it barely went across the skin. Another centimeter closer, and it would have taken my arm off. It burned heavily on my skin. The Blaster moved from the ground in which it fell from from the injury, back into its holster.

In that moment, Blaster bolts came screaming at me from another direction. I almost felt it first. Looking up to see the man who fired them. Yet, the bolts were going wide of me. Ducking down against the pillar as I noticed, finally, two others who had joined the fight.

A quick sense of them showed they weren't dark, but they weren't light either. Carrying weapons of different kinds. Were these also hunters coming down on me? Were they going after the Sith. I didn't ask. Wasn't going to. My hand reached out Two fingers opening from the grip of the dagger to yank some debris towards me. Creating a barrier between myself and these new people.

"Why can't anyone just leave me alone!"

More so spoken to myself, I was really hating this situation now. So many people in such close proximity all fighting. Hoping to use it to my advantage, I spoke out more loudly now.

"They here for you Sith. It hurts the more you resist!"

I kept my voice sharp and commanding. Letting it point out that they were firing at her. It didn't look like they were after me. So I would go with that assumption.
