Nimarra had been made unsteady by the initial shudder through the ship. She had to grab on to the frame of a nearby door in order to stop from falling. Her veiled face whipped left and right, searching for the source of the disturbance. Rokuro was long gone, having retreated to his room. Below, several dark presences had emerged in the hangar of all places. They quickly made their way into the greater ship, one of them charging toward the holding cells. The paladin had to make a choice. Defeat the rear guard, or secure the prisoner. Nimarra made the only choice she could, given her circumstances. She darted toward the holding cells, twin blades of blue-white springing to life with a snap-hiss.
The Jedi Knight ducked low beneath a damaged overhang before sliding to a halt near the entrance of the holding cells. She could feel someone nearby, her sightless eyes taking in details others could not. She opened her hands, reaching out with the force and wrapping her mind around the hilts of her blades. They levitated in the air, slowly making a circuit around her body. She would be ready when she faced the enemy.
She slid toward the door, only to have it open in front of her. A blue skinned Chiss stood there, his very being stained with rage and hate. Both lightsabers spun once, pointing at the Sith, while she brought her armored fists up. "I do not suppose we can settle this matter peacefully, can we, sith?" She asked, though she didn't hold her breath. She had one ace up her sleeve in case things got dicey, though. Not nearly as powerful as Vosrik's, but it would be enough for self defense.

A black wellspring of fire broiled in the crucible of Lord Cain's soul. The flames growing brighter and brighter, even in the everdark of their shadow. It was a strange juxtaposition inside of him, his devotion turning into power. Even so, the effects were explosive. Cain whirled and lashed out with the dark side, a single bolt of lightning piercing a jedi like a blaster bolt would. He whipped his hand, clawing at the minds of two defenders. One dropped to his knees, terror welling up inside until he punctured his own eyes to stop from seeing what he saw. The other ran himself through with his own lightsaber, falling to his knees in a fetal position.
Cain's lips curled in disgust.
Then he felt something, a presence, he glanced up at the door leading out to the halls of the vessel. He smiled, flicking his lightsaber once, its blade seemingly passing through the blade of another jedi. The Jedi stared at her own weapon in confusion as her severed legs fell to the ground separate from her torso. "Rokuro..." He muttered, striding towards the doors. "Come out, dear Rokuro!" Cain called, kicking a defender in the chest and dropping to a knee, skewering him. "Show your face! It might slow the death toll." He snarled.
