A pike and a staff, was it? How interesting. Both Jedi seemed determined, if nothing else, not falling to simple taunts. It would be less entertaining if they had. Wolfgang rose an eyebrow behind his helmet as he looked over the two Jedi and listened as they spoke. One's words could easily give away a flaw or two, even if they hadn't meant it, and Wolfgang rather enjoyed his verbal games.
Midway through the insect's threats of dismemberment another Sith showed up, wearing a macabre mask that seemed to hide a sort of dark glee. Wolfgang recognized the mask and presence from Nar Shaddaa, which was good enough for the moment. But back to the Jedi. One with threats and a flash of anger, one with an odd reversal of Wolfgang's own words and a moment to focus. Fascinating. Wolfgang stepped forward, his lightsaber down by his side as he moved ahead a couple meters and his datapad placed back on his belt. He settled in a side-face stance, right foot forward and his lightsaber lowered before him.
"Oh, very well then," he replied to Jerex, looking between the two Jedi for a moment. "Do you not value the lives spent to buy you time?" he asked them conversationally, indicating one of the corpses as an example. "Step forward. You cannot pass, elsewise." The two Jedi had taken up defensive stances, but Wolfgang understood tactics well. The goal of the boarders was to disable the ship, whereas Wolfgang's goal was simply to prevent that. The boarders were horribly outnumbered and every minute the Star Destroyed remained operational it rained fire upon other ships. Even a half-functioning Imperial class was brisling with heavy firepower, and its sheer size meant a few small groups of invaders could do little unless they took down something important. In other words, the Sith merely had to stand in the way.
