Eoto sighed with relief as he heard Aurelie's voice. She sounded fearful, as was to be expected, but at least she was alive. It was good to hear she had found Daven as well. "Just took a tumble that's all." Eoto lied as the woman asked if he was alright. His injuries were severe and would need medical attention soon, but at least for the time being he was in good enough condition to keep fighting. The moment she said she needed help the Bothan took in a deep breath and forced himself to stand up straight, rushing forward and ignoring the pain as he quickly made his way down the stairs. "On my way." He assured her.
He got to the bottom of the stairs and sprinted down the hallway. arriving just in time to spot the four pirates at the door to the room. One blasted the door open and rushed inside, followed promptly by another. Already he could hear more blaster fire as they attacked those inside. "No!" Eoto shouted and raised his rifle, firing a shot and winging one of the pirates still in the hall in the shoulder. As the man spun to the ground his ally cursed and took a defensive position somewhat concealed by the doorframe.
The pirate returned fire and Eoto retreated, hiding in the stairwell. He could hear more footsteps above him. Reu Lai and whatever remained of her forces were coming for them. He had to act. Eoto paused to catch his breath, then rolled out from behind cover. As he came to a crouch and took aim both he and the pirate fired simultaneously. The pirate hit him in the arm, Eoto his him in the head. Both men collapsed, but the Bothan managed to pick himself back up again with great effort. Three spots on his armor were now scorched black from blaster fire, blood seeping from the wounds. He stumbled forward with all the strength he had left, rounding the corner into the room the pirates had entered and raising his blaster rifle again, prepared to fight to the last. In the back of his mind he knew if L5 didn't arrive soon they were almost surely doomed.
