Hey everyone happy Star Wars Day! In honor of May the 4th I decided to post three new chapters for Brothers At War. I hope you all enjoy them. Star Wars is owned by Disney.
Chapter 7: Slaves Of Kadavo
Nightstalker: Zygerria (Adam's POV)
After the bomb went off at the governor's tower, on Kiros, the team and I contacted the Jedi Counel to inform them about what happened to the people and how Trickster was hired by the Separatists to do some of their work. Master Winud asked me if we had him, however I mentioned that he got the drop on me and that he escaped.
After we were finished talking to them the council informed us that there were rumors that the Togrutans were being sold as slaves at Zygerria. The Counsel then told us that we need to find out where the slaves are being sold, and free them while some of us find out who is in charge of this. All of us agreed that since Ahsoka is Togruta, she will have to play the part of the slave while she, and Anakin will locate who is in charge and while Obi wan and Saber Team will locate where the slaves are and where they're being sold to. Since we had two groups exploring Zygerria, Ahsoka, Anakin, and Obi wan took a Zygerrian ship and disguised themselves as Zygerrians and slaves.
At the same time the rest of us took the Nightstalker to Zygerria and since we didn't want anybody to recognize us, all of us grabbed cloaks to cover our bodies and cloths that wrapped around our faces. As both ships started to land on the planet, I looked at the team and said, "Alright guys here's the plan. Since Ahsoka is with Anakin and Obi wan, we'll have two teams of two. Anthony, you and Barriss will go together andl search the north east side of the city. And Jason, you and I will go search the west side of the city."
"Anything else?" Anthony asked.
"Yeah. Whatever you do don't blow our cover." I said as we exited the ship and went to our locatioins.
City (Anthony's POV)
After we left the Nightstalker, Barriss and I wondered the streets of the city, looking for where the slaves were being sold. As we continued walking, the both of us noticed how there were slaves being treated like animals. "Can you believe this?" Barriss asked.
"I know. This is insane." I said to her. The more we searched the city, the more salves we saw being treated bad. Every time we saw a slave being whipped, the more I wanted to grab the whip and beat the person to a pulp. The two of us then saw a Zygerrian whipping a Togruta.
"On you knees slave!" The Zygerrian said. "Five lashes to remind you to stay in line." Before he could whip the slave, I grabbed his harm and crushed his wrist. "What is the meaning of this?!"
"Don't even think about it!" I said to him as he snarled at me.
Before the two of us almost fought each other, Barriss placed her hand on my shoulder and said to the Zygerrian, "Please excuse my husband. He's got a big temper."
The Zygerrian then calmed down and allowed us to walk away. "If I see you again, I'll kill you!"
"I looked forward to that." I said as we walked away and continued our search.
While we were searching the city, Barriss said, "Remember what Adam said. We can't blow our cover."
"I know I just hate watching crime go by and not do anything." I said to her.
"I feel the same way two." She said.
"You do?" I asked.
"I feel like I'm trapped behind a cage and can't do anything." She said. "But we need to continue with the mission if we are going to free these slaves." I nodded at her as we continued to search the city.
(Adam's POV)
"Got anything?" I asked Jason.
"I see slaves walking through the streets but I can't tell where they're coming from." Jason said as he took of his binoculars. While Anthony and Barriss were searching the streets of the city, Jason and I decided to get a better view of it by walking across the rooftops. As we looked down at the city we noticed how the slaves were being treated by the Zygerrians. "Man can you believe this?" Jason said as he looked through his binoculars. "Are you seeing this Adam?"
"I'd be lying if I said I wasn't." I said to him as I saw the same thing through my helmet's visor. "I just hope Ahsoka is fine."
"I can't imagine what she's going through. Watching her own kind being treated like animals." Jason said.
"The same kind of thing happened on my planet when poor and less educated people were being sold as slaves, but eventually the slaves revolted and regained their freedom." I said to him. "We'll free these people and we will make sure the people responsible for this, will pay." Jason nodded at me as the both of us jumped from rooftop to rooftop, searching for the slave market.
As we were walking across the rooftops of the buildings, the two of us noticed two Zygerrian gaurds standing in front of us, with their backs turned to us. Jason and I looked at each other and nodded as we started to creep up behind them and grabbed them by the mouth and nose, knocking them out, quietly. "These guards wouldn't be here if there wasn't something to look after." I said to Jason.
"Then we must be getting close." Jason said as we started to run across the rooftops and starting to notice more guards on the rooftops.
(Barriss' POV)
As me and Anthony continued to walk through the city, the both of us started to realize that there were more and more guards walking through the streets. I looked at Anthony and asked, "Hey Anthony, do you notice something."
"Yeah." He said. "We must be getting close to the market. Let's keep our eyes open, but don't drag any attention." The two of us then started to look around the area to see where the slaves were being sold until we came across a building that looked like and arena from the outside.
(Jason's POV)
After running across the rooftops and silently taking out guard for about half an hour, Adam and I were lead to an arena like building. As the two of us were stood on top of a rooftop across the street from the arena, my eyes caught something. "Hey Adam I see Anthony and Bariss down below. It looks like there heading inside the arena." I said to him but then I realized he was looking at something else. "Hey Adam did you here what I just said?" I asked.
"Huh… Yeah I heard what you said. Listen you go inside with them. I'll be right behind you." He said as I go off the building and went to join Anthony and Barriss.
After I got down the roof I walked towards them and said, "Hey guys."
Barriss turned towards me and said, "Jason what are you doing here?"
"We figured out that this was the place where the slaves were being sold." I said to her.
"We though the same thing too." Anthony said.
"Let's go inside and see what's going on." I said as the three of us entered the arena.
Anthony then stopped and asked, "Wait where's Adam?"
"He's coming with us. Now let's go." I said to him as we entered the arena.
Alright everyone that's it for chapter 7. So what will they find in the arena? Stick around and find out.
