A Distressing Start
(Notes: Disclaimer: I own nothing none of the characters places or anything else are mine and I gain no money so please don't sue I mean really I own nothing it would be pointless to sue really. This is my first fan fiction it goes throughout the KOTOR world timeline so there are some spoilers).
There was a huge shake and Alora who leapt and turned to the door from the sounds of things there was a fight going on. She groaned the republic had never been able to prove she was a smuggler so how had they convinced her to work on this thing. The door opened a republic soldier ran in and shut the door he introduced himself as Trask ulgo a soldier and they were both needed on the bridge. Alora nodded here blue eyes gleaming with fierce intensity she grabbed her things and got changed she checked her pistol and stealth field generator before telling Trask she was ready to go.
"Okay I'll open this door as I have the codes but you'll need to splice the next one okay?" he asked as the door clicked open. Alora just nodded as she rushed forward this door was open faster than Trask's door she turned around smirking at her skill he was smirking himself she turned back around and there were to Sith commandos who did not look happy, actually they could have been grinning their heads off she just couldn't tell. She raised her gun but two power shots came from behind and the sith dropped like flies. She turned to Trask eyebrow raised.
"Hey, didn't you learn as a smuggler to pay attention?" He asked grinning broadly happy for once she had looked like the idiot instead of him.
" Nope the republic and well the sith usually make so much sound could hear them a mile off." Alora giggled, as Trask seemed to get very frustrated before she could say anything Carth beeped in.
"Things are getting real bad get here as fast as you can I've sent the most recent map to you only one route is left open the other doors get here as fast as you can." The com-link faded into static.
"Carth has seen more trouble than the rest of the crew put together if he says things are bad you know it's true. So we best hurry up or…" Trask didn't need to finish his sentence Alora remembered one of her best business partners got tortured and killed after the sith found him smuggling a ship load of heavy riffles one a trade route to Coruscant she shuddered. They managed to get to just two doors from the bridge without serious injury, when Alora took to blasts to the arm and they had to stop for ten minuets applying the equipment. Alora nodded and grabbed her gun her arm was sore but she could hold the pistol and a short sword in that hand now. She opened the door Trask grabbed her back telling her about the dark Jedi she understood but couldn't help wanting to help the Jedi as they finished talking, the fight ended the Jedi seemed to notice something but as she got ready to fight a grenade landed and she collapsed. Alora managed to shield herself from the shrapnel whilst Trask started shooting the sith who had thrown the grenade Alora finished the last one off with a blaze of shots. She switched weapons to her twin blades with amazing speed and checked the bodies for anything of use before opening the door to the bridge Trask spun the blade of his single long sword at one of the sith in a challenge, Alora merely swung hers together slicing along the sith's throat and body he started falling too slowly in her opinion so a roundhouse kick seemed to help. He wasn't standing and the gashes in his uniform suggested he was more than asleep. Trask seemed to have finished his off and started watching her.
They had lost the ship there wasn't much time they had grabbed all they could and Trask had shown Alora how to use the power blast technique by bypassing the safety on her gun before they rushed through the door on their way to the starboard section of the ship. Trask rushed forward to investigate and opened the door before Alora could mutter a warning she could feel something behind that door and it looked like she was right.
"Damn a dark Jedi. I'll try and hold him off you get to the escape pods. GO!" Trask yelled shutting the door behind him. Alora stood stunned shook herself and rushed forward she tried to open the door, to help Trask but it had been sealed shut, she couldn't open it that dark Jedi would be she was sure of it. With one last remorseful glance Alora opened the second door and walked into the starboard section.
"This is Carth Onasi. Besides myself you're the only other crew member alive. There's a sith trouper up ahead you could try to sneak past him using or stealth skill I can't hold the sith off much longer. Onasi out." Carth chimed in.
Alora activated her stealth generator and stole forward about two meters to distract the sith she through a small piece of debris and then as the sith blindly started firing at the other door she opened the door that with any luck would lead to freedom. Two more sith Damn it! What had she done to deserve this? She thought as she readied her blades she snuck past the one on her right, the blaster could have killed her but no blaster in the galaxy would help with a slit throat, the second turned too late Alora had already switched the blades for her two guns a single power blast made sure he was down.
"This is Carth. There's a whole squadron in the next room you won't be able to take them out on your own. You could repair the combat droid or slice the computer and overload the power conduit it's your choice. Onasi out." Alora nodded absorbing the information she decided to slice the computer; she was better at it she checked the room gaining all the computer spikes she could her blue eyes showing her determination she tugged on her brown hair almost pulling it out of the ponytail it was in. Her fingers were a blur over the keyboard she watched on the monitor as the electricity dispersed making it safe to enter the room she checked the bodies for anything of use then opened the next door along.
"There you the sith are the only other living things on the ship. Bastila's escape pod is away so the sith could decide to destroy the ship at any moment." Carth said walking forward to make sure she was fine Alora stepped back.
"Who are you? And more importantly how do I know I can trust you?" She asked suspicion evident.
"I'm a soldier with the republic. Look we really don't have the time so you'll just have to." He answered sharply walking to the last escape pod. Alora wasn't sure what to make of the tall dark and handsome man in front of her. His brown eyes showing the mistrust she felt and his brown hair was such a mess, Alora hated all mess in smugglers circles she was often referred to as the neatest freak of the galaxy as well as the best. Alora walked forward and followed Carth into the pod as the entrance shut there was an explosion the pod jumped out of the ship Alora was thrown forward. Carth groaned she was out of it and by the looks of it she would be dead to the world for a while yet he saw the wound on her are and started treating it properly.
(okay that's the beginning tell me what you think I'm not sure if I have the timeline exactly right sorry in advance for any mistakes).
