Summary/Disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Shattered Order. Enjoy the 900- word chapter. I don't own Star Wars, Lucasfilms and Disney does.
(Felucia, Outer Rim territory, Felucia System)
Levder's appearance didn't surprise Bail Organa, Levder sat on the same Juggernaut tank he had been standing on before the battle.
"She said she isn't leaving until the Dark Side is purged from the planet… Its small, but I sense it… The Imperials are going to return here with reinforcements. They took losses, but so did we… I don't know how many soldiers Kota lost, we're still counting, I know we lost 4 A-Wings and they lost a dozen TIE Fighters." Levder explained, Kota nodded.
"We should head out and leave a small garrison here to protect Master Ti, we can't afford to stay here… This is a very defensive planet, but we can't wage endless war on this planet." Kota stated, Bail shook his head.
"No, we need Master Ti for the Alliance, our losses in the Lothal System show the need for the Jedi to return to the frontlines… I propose one Jedi stay behind and the rest move onto the next mission." Bail stated, Shaak Ti walked over, still wearing the ripped cloak and backless top.
"My apprentice can stay behind and continue my work… But she needs the tutoring of another Jedi… And I cannot come to your headquarters, I would bring the empire to your location due to my strength in the force." Shaak Ti stated, Levder turned to her with surprise.
"I thought you said you were going to stay to deal with the planet and its imbalance." Shaak Ti put in, Bail spoke up.
"The best I can spare is 2 platoons and a squadron of A-Wings, Master Ti, the Rebellion is strained on man power as it is… How long do you need to stay for? The Empire is going to send reinforcements to kill you, they've already tried one assault, their try another invasion soon enough." Bail asked.
"I need another week, she's nearing the end of her training… After that, I'll be fully able to leave the planet… But I cannot ever return to the headquarters your using." Shaak Ti stated, Levder turned to Bail.
"Bail, I'll stay here and wait for the training to end… The Empire took a lot of casualties trying to get to use, we found a few patrols taken out by the plants and Rancors… It's going to take a lot more than a direct assault to wipe out the Felucians here and Shaak Ti." Levder put in, Bail nodded.
"I will have to talk to the rest of the council, but I think we can handle that. I have to organize the invasion on Kamino." Bail stated, Shaak Ti crossed her arms and then she turned to Levder.
"Levder has stated he would be staying here until the training was done. He said you were putting him in charge of his own Rebel stated." Shaak Ti, Levder twirled his saberstaff between his fingers.
"Yes, we were, we have people recruiting soldiers for Levder and General Kota to be in command of." Bail stated, Levder turned to Kota.
"We still have to get those scientists who were going to teach us how to get more A and Y-Wings, we do that and an invasion of Kamino, and we're have a perfect military force…" Levder stated, Shaak Ti leapt to the top of the Turbo Tank.
"If you could invade Rothana, you'd be able to manufacture more fighters and vehicles for your war." Shaak Ti put in, Levder blinked and he turned to Shaak Ti.
"She's right, Rothana used to be where half the ships and assault craft for the Republic's military, if we were able to invade there, we'd be able to group the navy and army at the same time." Levder put in, Bail rubbed his chin.
"We could attack there, but we'd need one of you to walk us through the invasion we launch, we'd take massive losses if we launch an invasion without proper intel." Levder heard from the Senator.
The communication cut off, Levder turned to Kota who leapt off the tank, he needed to make sure Liberty had enough men to spare and still be able to leave on time.
Levder looked at Shaak Ti, the Togruta Jedi Master looked at him and smiled.
Levder blushed, but turned away. He crossed his arms and then walked into the jungle, Kota would be leaving and he'd be spending a week on Felucia. That wasn't so bad, it would be if Vader came to personally kill them that bothered him. He couldn't handle Vader, and Shaak Ti was the only one of the groups that he would probably lose to, they couldn't afford to not recruit her.
Their only chance would be to recruit the Jedi Master, she would be the only chance the Rebellion had to resist the Empire and actually put up a fight against the Sith.
The galaxy would be destroyed if they weren't able to connect the Jedi Order again.
Author notes.
