From The Skies...

[Pierre Lindegaard]

Oh boy, what a sudden turn of events. The Empress is dead, killed by Darth Vrael, the Jedi reveal themselves to the galaxy, Communications go black in Imperial Hutta, not good for Imperial Republica none of it. But there was a silver lining to it, two pieces of silver lining actually. He doesn't know how it happened, only rumors but the Old Empire found locations of otherwise hidden rebel/Jedi bases. That and there is a new Sith Lord in the Old Empire by the name of Varyn Rask. The Old Empire is now kicking into gear. Although it pains Pierre so, to want to flock from the Imperial Republica and finding himself more interested in the decadent Old Empire. But above all, he'd be lying to himself if he didn't think that Imperial Republica was a sinking ship. It will be good to be on the winning side of things once the dust finishes clearing.

For today, the Empire is going after the previously-hidden terrorist base on this planet 'Naboo' as it's called. Honestly Pierre has never heard of this planet. An obscure planet such as this would have allowed the rebels to plant seeds here of course. Not any more as he Old Empire are going to take what's left of this place and bring this planet into the fold.

Pierre would be standing about 30 meters in front of the base's front gates, having arrived moments before. The Sith Acolyte isn't alone, as he is working with another Sith here today. She is an Acolyte under the Old Empire from Serenno. He hasn't met her previously to this or no much about her really, but suffice it to say Pierre is ready for battle, having all his normal gear on him and such. Pierre would glance to the side. "What a nice looking planet..." Pierre would then smirk. Really is easy on the eyes. The skies are as clear as day and the birds are chirping as they are in flight. This planet, once it falls into Sith hands will make for some real good prime real estate. Enough of that, Pierre would set his gaze forward, he would reach out through the force to extend his senses, his hands would be near both his sabers.

The Empress was dead, she had to put her feeling to one side for rebellious faction. They where one empire now, their Emperor had seen to that. That if she was honest was yet to be formalised, but the reason for the rebellion was possibly still in existence. She was here to meet one of them, she had keep a decorum with him. After all they may soon be under same government, though they may still be at war, if something breaks down. As a result, she made herself look as nice she could, as she did not want to let the side down. As she approached him, she was wearing her Sith Marauder armour, and a lightsaber at her side. Though she had the helmet under her left arm, so he could see her face. Her was tied up, so not to get in the way, when she put her helmet on.

They where here to put down a rebellious alliance, with a name that supersedes their capabilities. The so called Galactic Alliance, galactic really they had few base here and there. Sure it was in more one part of galaxy, but they where nothing more than a bunch rebels without real infrastructure, not even acting in unison. Well today they going to lose one more little base, and be even smaller. They should just grateful, that they have the empire in charge, rather trying to resurrect the Jedi Order, who stand for nothing but stagnation.

She head down to other acolyte, and told her it was nice looking planet, and smirked. To be fair it was, the birds where singing, though she knew what the birds where really saying, and it was not polite. She replied to him It is quite nice, maybe I will look around afterwards. She then gave him a pleasant smile, before donning her helmet. She then took her lightsaber in her hand, and prepared to move forward......

Looks like Sabrina shares the same sentiments. "Yeah, I might have to get a house built here." the Corulagi native said as he smiled while glancing at Sabrina. She looks like she's good to go for a fight, and Pierre is too. The task here is to make a straight forward attack on the front, but only to gather their attention so that others can go in the rear and attack them from there. Acting as a distraction. But so far their hasn't been any movement from the defenders yet really. Oh well. Perhaps when the occupants evacuated, they didn't leave anyone behind and thus there would be nobody here to defend the base. If nobody shows up, maybe the Sith might go cut their way in through the gates themselves, and pillage what they can and then leave before the Sith warships from orbit turn the place into smoldering craters. Nonetheless, Pierre would see Sabrina take up her lightsaber into her hand, and Pierre would do likewise, drawing his lightsabers in hand as well, his purple lightsaber in his right hand and red lightsaber in his left. While keeping his eyes peeled, he would be drawing the Force to himself as well. "Ready?" he asked.

She turned to look at him, her helmet was now on. She listened to him as he spoke, a was nice idea to build a home here. That was not in her plans though, she wanted one on Serenno. That was her ambition to rise through the ranks nobility, from the bottom of it to near the top as she can. To do that she need to stay on Serenno, and not move to this world, shame it would be cheaper. As the retail value is going to drop after those warships arrive, and begin there orbital bombardment. They both where ready to fight, and they both ready to move in. As he ignited his purple lightsaber, she ignited her red blade. She was slightly jealous of his blade, as she wanted a purple blade but was unable to make one. She would ask him about it later, how he managed it, so she could copy him. As purple was so much prettier than red, and she wanted like it, though if he died she take it off him. She then put herself into fighting stance, and replied to him Whenever you are ready, I am. I was time to make a move, and take out what was left of the personal here.

Well, looks like they aren't going for the bait. They are either all gone or dug in, maybe a combination of both. Either way, Pierre is a man of action, not content to just stand around. He is going in. Pierre would then be moving forward. Sabrina ignited her lightsaber blade, and then Pierre ignited his brilliant purple and crimson red lightsaber blades and then strode forward with a purpose ready for fighting. As they had 30 meters to cross before they get to the gates so they would get their all in good time.

At the fifteen meter mark, the front gates would then start openning, pouring fourth seven Gungans, equipped with the energy shields and pikes. Pierre - underneath his mask - raised an eyebrow as he saw the strange fish-looking aliens. Those must be the local wild-life. They look strange. And for those natives to be here at the location of this rebel base means the natives have taken a liking to them and give them aid.

That means only one thing, that once this world is claimed by the glorious empire, these xenos will be punished. Maybe they will be enslaved, or exterminated. Who knows. Not Lindegaard's problem though. The Sith Acolyte would finish darting up towards the incoming Gungan Warriors. When they would be coming charging at him, Pierre would stop before they would enter melee distance with their spears and then raise his left hand, unleashing a torrent of lightning at the Gungans. Although normally a Sith Acylote's lightning isn't very powerful, Pierre did gather the force a little bit ago and then put it to use project it as a cone. The cone of lightning would strike four of the warriors that were committing to attacks and were surprised and couldn't bring their shields to block the attack in time. The lightning didn't have a lot of power behind it, but it did shock those four, which would stun them and put them out of the fight for a bit. The remaining gungans weren't in range, but they gasped for the first time they saw a human shoot lightning out of their hands.

These Gungans are not going to have a good day.

She headed in behind the other acolyte, she was taking in the view. As they both entered what seemed like an abandoned base, she could sense a few sentintian species. As they walked down the corridors, after roughly thirty meters they saw a small group of defenders. They where a group of seven gungans, why these ugly stupid creatures. She thought to herself, atleast they will be easy to dispatch.

Her fellow acolyte moved his hand upwards, and used force lighting. He was impressive, someone she wanted to get to know later. Though that would be later, as they have gungans to kill. His lighting struck four of them, and stunned them. She was impressed, but she was not going to be out done by him. As if she was, he would forget about her, after this mission. She needed to make an impression, to help prevent that.

She took a deep breath, and filled her lungs full of oxygen. She then focused inwards on her lungs, infused it with the force. She then let rip, a powerful blast. Though the problem was the gungans shields, where overlapping and by strange coincidence, running at same frequency she used force bellows at. This caused it bounce of them, straight back at her. she was hit by her own attack. The blast sent her flying back, she hit deck with a bang.

The back her head, had a lump on it, and she was completely dazed and disoriented by it.

After the lightning struck those four Gungans, Sabrina he can see attempted to use the force to blast the remaining gungan's with a powerful sonic wave, but it seems that those creatures use their weird shields to deflect it back at her. He can't stop that, but what he can do is go in and stop them from capitalizing on the woman dazing herself and stabbing her with their crude pikes. That won't happen on Pierre's watch. Pierre would then quickly dash forward towards the Gungans to intercept. He used up a lot of power with that lightning previously and he needs to pace himself just in case. The Sith Acolyte would then - once in lightsaber striking range - would catch the attention of the gungans.

Pierre was more than ready to fight in melee.

The gungans, the one on the right, would attempt to jab Pierre on his chest with his pike, but the Sith Acolyte is pretty nimble on his feet, he side-stepped to dodge to the right (thus the gungan on the left would have his partner obstructing him from attack) then Pierre would swing his red lightsaber horizontally. The gungan would bring his shield to defend against it, but it only stopped it for a moment before the shield would give out, aft that the lightsaber slash would cleave through the Gungan's torso. bisecting him as it cleaved through him like a blade through air. Pierre had a devious smirk on his mask as he cut through the hapless foolish xeno. Now just one more to deal with before the others before they might wake up, they are already stirring up.

Quickly, Pierre would have the other Gungan coming right at him, going for a full thrust. Pierre would raise his red lightsaber to cut the primative non-saber resistant spear on the shaft before it could land a hit. In quick succession, Pierre would swing his purple lightsaber. The Gungan would use it's shield in vain to block, only for it to fail quickly and get cut in half.

She began to stumble to her feat. her head was ringing in pain. As she got her feet, she saw her lightsaber and bent over to pick it up, she was still dazed and not quite sure what was happening, but she felt she needed it. As she picked it up, she felt sudden surge form her stomach, and she threw up in her own helmet. As she retched the vomit sprayed back in her face, as it impacted on her helmet. This clogged up her visor, she take her helmet off. This was just so she could see, adn get rid of the smell. As it came off, she had chunks in her hair, and it vomit dripping of her face. She still was starting to come to her sense, and then realised there was gungans here.

She turned to face what was left, her combat pose left much to be desired.

 

[Pierre Lindegaard]

Pierre was smirking still behind his mask, still delighted with the slaughter of these aliens. Who knew this could be so much fun. However, after cutting down the last fish-alien thing he looked to the side to see where his partner is and then saw Sabrina... appearing to be having some trouble... He had a open-mouthed puzzled expression on his face as he wondered what those vomit-colored chunks are in her hair. And what is that smell?

As Pierre wondered, the dazed Gungans were on their feet. They were ready for battle once more and didn't hesitate to jump into the fray. Two of them went for Pierre, and then the last two went for Sabrina. These creatures are determined he will give them that. The gungans charged at Pierre with their pikes raised. Before they could hit, Pierre would pivot wide to his right side in time to dodge both of them. As he comes out he would twist his body and then swing his purple lightsaber horizontally from his left side to the right, cutting the gungan in two pieces.

Pierre could almost taste their deaths through the Force, and it's a sweet sensation. That just leaves one more to go for him, and then Sabrina should be able to handle herself... hopefully.

She was not in great battle pose, when gungan went for her. He was fast and had long poll arm, and was compos mentis than her. As he lunged at her, she stepped back to buy her time. Swung instinctively to block it, as it came towards her. Her blade managed to push it away from her, but it skimmed her armour, and sparked as it did with the speed of his blow. He had over stepped himself, and lost balance temporarily as he did. She managed to bring her lightsaber up in time, as his pole arm was passing her. She then stabbed him in the chest, as she did its oversized tongue flopped out of its mouth. The lightsaber made hissing noise, as the gungan fell to the ground. The lightsaber cut it further as cut through him more, and loud clatter brought her to her senses. This came from the falling polearm, as it hit the ground. She stared at is dead body, it had cut from its chest where balde entered. Then it moves upward, to side of his neck where the blade left his body, when he slumped backwards.

She then gave him a smile, but she must looked off putting. As had forgotten, she had vomit, in her hair and face, as well as down the front of her armour.
