"What do you mean?" Sev asks.

"If the rift does what I fear it will, the Sith that are buried here will resurrect," I answer. Sev curses.

"Get us down there as soon as you can. I don't want Obi-Wan to get killed by undead Sith," Sev says.

"I'm trying. Go in too hot and we're fried," I remind him. The radio goes quiet after that. Once we break through the cloud layer, I see a temple with several Sith warriors standing outside. I open up with the plasma cannons, killing them as I land with open doors. The squad gets out and runs towards the entrance.

"I want you two to be my eyes in the sky," Sev says over the radio.

"Will do. We'll keep anyone from surprising you from out here," Seely says, frustrated that she can't go in with them. I take off again and begin a regular patrolling pattern around the temple, keeping an eye out for anything that doesn't belong. The commandos make it inside safely, and I can hear them chattering over the radio. As we're circling, a blue box suddenly zooms past, landing right by the entrance of the temple. It's the TARDIS!

"Hey Sev, if two humans run in, and one of them has a little tool with a blue light at the end of it, they're friendlies. They're reinforcements," I warn him.

"Sounds good," he says a few minutes later. "We found him. But there's a ton of Sith down here. There's no way we can do this on our own." My personal com starts beeping so I answer it. It's one of the droid commanders.

"The droid army is still yours to command. Where do you need us?" He asks.

"Korriban. Assemble a team of commandos, droidekas, and supers," I tell him.

"Roger roger. They will be there soon," he says. I cut the transmission and continue circling, watching the TARDIS as well. The doctor and a blonde haired woman exit the TARDIS shortly after I pass it for the fourth time.

"Your friends are incoming," I tell Sev. Suddenly the incoming missile warning comes on. I take evasive action and Seely shoots the missile down with one of the remote turrets.

"Nice shot!"

"Thanks cyar'ika," she says.

"We're on our way out," Sev says a few minutes later. I get the ship around to the entrance, under fire from laser cannons mounted in the temple. Seely uses the remote cannons to take out the cannons she can. I use the hyperspace cannons to take out the rest. Sev and Mira rush out carrying Kenobi between them, the rest of the squad and the ysalamiri trailing close behind. I open the doors so they can get in quickly and then take off again as they close. As we're leaving the atmosphere several Sith fighters follow us. Seely shoots them down and I make the jump to hyperspace. When we arrive on Mandolore, the Doctor and his TARDIS are already waiting for us in the hangar. The woman that was with him is nowhere in sight. We get Obi-Wan to the medical area, and Mij gets to work.

"Is everybody else ok?" Seely asks.

"Other than Fixer, yes everybody is ok," Sev answers. I can hear the anger in his voice. The Doctor walks over to Fixer and releases some of his Time Energy onto him, causing his wound to heal almost instantly.

"What was that?!" Sev exclaims.

"As I told you before, I'm a Timelord. We can regenerate ourselves, and that energy I just released is what allows me to regenerate," he explains.

"Where are you from? You sound different than Lo'gaan over there," Sev says, a small amount of disdain in his voice.

Galifrey. But it was destroyed in a war not too different from this one," he says, looking through Sev and out at some distant world. Sev just snorts.

"Life was going normally until you arrived here Lo'gaan," Sev says, turning on me.

"It's not my fault Fixer got hurt on Myrkr. I also want to remind you that you were the one that thought it was a good idea to go back for him with the squad instead of letting me go like I had promised I would," I say standing up quickly. The Doctor sighs frustrated and turns away from us.

"Are all humans this divisive?" he asks, his temper rising too. Then Rose walks out, a worried look on her face.

"We've got a bigger problem boys. Daleks are close. They're invading the whole galaxy," she says.

"Let's let the Empire kill them off," Sev says. "That way they'll kill each other and we won't have to lose more men."

"The Empire isn't strong enough. Those droids you have and the remaining clones wouldn't stand a chance against a hundred Daleks. There's a hundred thousand on Mandolore alone," The Doctor says. Sev's face reddens.

"Calm down everyone. The gunship has specialized weapons. Maybe it would be strong enough," Seely says, nearly shouting herself. Everyone looks at her, shocked that she could be so loud.

"What kind of weapons?" The Doctor asks.

"Seismic rockets, plasma cannons, and twin hyperspace cannons," Seely answers automatically.

"What exactly do the seismic rockets do?" he asks.

"Here I'll show you," I say and get him the footage from my encounter with the star destroyer. He watches and listens as the situation plays out. After it finishes, he sits for a moment, scratching his head.

"That was brilliant. Just brilliant. Dalek shielding is nowhere near as strong as all of that armor and shielding, but it is strong enough that your rifles and rocket launchers are toys to them," he says.

"Will the seismic charges work? Because if they will, I can make them into a makeshift grenade. The only problem is containing the blast range. I think with Qail's help I might be able to though," Scorch says.

"They will be plenty strong. What about the hyperspace cannons?" Rose asks.

"They can cut through pretty much anything," Scorch says.

"Sev, you need to go calm yourself down cyar'ika," Mira says, pulling him into a hug so she can kiss him and make him forget about everything else. Seely hugs me tightly and rests her head against my shoulder.

"You're right cyar'ika. Scorch, Qail, you two are on R&D on those grenades. Detpacks are good too of you can't get a grenade to work," he says and returns to making out with Mira. I hold Seely tightly as well and look at The Doctor. He appears to be deep in thought, and then randomly snaps out of it.

"We need to find a way to close that rift if we're going to keep any more Daleks from flying in here," he says.

"I think I know why it's here in the first place," I say.

"Why?" The Doctor asks.

"Because I don't belong in this time or even this universe. I was sent by my people through a black hole to see what happened to people. If I leave via the rift, it should close," I say. the room goes silent and Seely looks at me, her eyes watering.

"What will I do without you? You've shown me love that I've never known before," she says. I rub her back slowly, trying to comfort her.

"Let's liberate Mandolore first and then worry about the rest of the galaxy," I say. she nods, still teary-eyed.

"There has to be another way around this," The Doctor says.

"What do you mean another way?" Sev asks.

"There has to be another way to close the breach without sending Lo'gaan through it," The Doctor answers.

"Well I'm afraid that's not going to work this time Doctor," I say. "Why don't you make yourself useful and help Qail and Scorch," I suggest as I run for the gunship. Seely runs to join me.

"No cyar'ika. You're staying here. I don't want you getting hurt or killed," I say.

"You think I'm going to let you go? You're mistaken cyar'ika. Especially if you're going to be leaving me soon. I want to spend the rest of my days with you," she says and pulls me into a deep kiss. I kiss her back, and when she breaks away, I smile at her.

"We've got a planet to save. Let's get to it," I say. She nods and we both get in. I take off as soon as she's in. When we get into the atmosphere, it's chaos. There are Daleks everywhere, civilian and military craft are flying about in a tangled mess, and there is laser fire everywhere.

"Seely dear we're headed for their command ship. Our seismic rockets should be able to take it down," I say.

"Sounds good to me cyar'ika," she says. I punch it to space, and when I get up there, there are droid ships blockading the planet, using their banks of laser cannons to hold the Dalek mother ships back. Some of the Dalek ships show signs of serious damage. I target the main ship with one of the rockets and launch it. The rocket careens to its target and destroys it. The command ship explodes in an epic display of flame and debris. the force of the explosion takes out several other ships near it and severely damages some of the others.

"Now it's my turn," Seely says and opens up with the hyperspace cannons. the remaining Dalek ships fall by her hand, we return to the surface, one ship among hundreds of thousands. When we land in the hangar, there's bombed out Daleks everywhere and rubble piled up from the fighting. Seely and I frantically dig through the rubble to get into the main part of the base. When we do, everyone is pointing a rifle or lightsaber at us. In the case of The Doctor, it's a sonic that greets us. Sala and Rose run up to us and rub against our legs, chirping happily. Suddenly Seely collapses, crying out in pain.

"Must...go...to Felucia...sister...is in...grave...danger…" she manages to get out. I sit next to her and cradle her.

"Who is your sister?" I ask.

"General Aayla Secura," she answers, slowly regaining her breath. I get up and look around.

"I was attached to Aayla's division before I met you all. I might be able to get her clones to stand down if we get there in time. We can't bring Fixer along, so someone has to stay behind and protect him while Seely and I are out rescuing her sister," I say.

"Delta Squad will stay behind," Boss says. Seely starts to cry. I hold her close and work my way to the gunship once more.

"We will get your sister to safety, I promise." She hands me her lightsabers.

"You go. I'm in no shape to follow," she says. I nod slowly and get into the Z-95 instead. I slowly maneuver around all the rubble and get into the open air once more. After I get clear of the planet, I make the jump to Felucia. The Z-95 gets there much faster than the gunship would have, and I quickly locate General Secura. She is fighting off a large group of Daleks, which I quickly clear with the Z-95's rotary cannons and a few thermal detonators.

I circle around and land in a small clearing so Aayla can get into my ship. When she gets onto the wing I pop the canopy so she can slip in. It's crowded, but we make it work. She flies and I sit in the chair to keep her in place. One of the Daleks that I missed makes a lucky shot and hits two of the engines. The Z-95 starts bucking and slowing way down. Another two rounds takes out the other two engines and before I know it we're speeding towards the forest. Once we get low enough, the two of us eject and fall through the branches. I hit the ground first and catch Aayla before she hits the round. She's dazed for a second when the impact she was expecting doesn't occur.

"Lo'gaan! what a pleasure to see you again," she says.

"And you," I reply, gently setting her down.

"How'd you know where I was?" she asks, perplexed.

"Seely," I respond.

"My sister?! She's ok?!"

"She is doing quite well old friend. Where can we find a ride out of here?" I ask her.

"I don't know. But we better move. More of those things are coming," she answers.
