Part 7 -
The fire started to die and Otus was dead asleep on his hammock. A hand snatches over his mouth and pulls him behind a board. He opens his eyes to see Master Arous holding his mouth.
"Shhh.. Be quiet Otus." Arous whispers to him, removing his hand from Otus' mouth.
"Why did you do that?" Whispered back to Tyron calming down his heart beat.
Arous looked at him slowly, "We're not alone.." He signaled to peak over the board.
The two men peered over the tiny board to see two beings in black and yellow armor in the middle of the compound. They were speaking in their native tongue. Tyron understood every word, he heard them talking about a "Jedi."
"They are looking for me." He whispered.
"Why?" Otus asked.
Arous shook his head signifying he did not know and Otus asked, "Where are Gwaine and Barkley?"
"Barkley was killed before I awoke," Tyron said. "I managed to hide Gwaine's body behind the cog pile."
Jonto's voice was heard, "Hey Otus! Get your lazy ass up and open the gate!"
The black and yellow armored hostiles slowly crept to the gates. One climbed to the top of the wall, and without revealing himself he pulled the lever, opening the gates.
"They are gonna be killed." Otus warned.
As the returning crew walked into the compound the enemies readied to kill. Otus jumped out from the board, blaster in hand and cried, "Watch out!"
Jonto did not understand what was going on and turned around to see the slimmer hostile jump from the wall with two vibroblades wielded in each hand. Gallagher managed to back up enough to get his chest plate slashed. Cassor'go whipped out his own vibroblade and rammed his shoulder into the enemy, knocking him away from Jonto.
The other armored man got the surprise on them and used his rifle's stock to knock Eleya unconscious and shooting two blaster rifle shots into Skeeto's right arm and leg. Skeeto fell to his knees and the enemy kicked him in the head, knocking him out as well. Otus fired a burst of shots at the enemy nailing him in the chest, knocking him back. As Otus aimed for the next enemy facing off with Cassor'go, but he was interrupted by Guark, who kicked him in the face. Jonto stood to his feet and placed his helmet on his head, then turned to face Guark.
Cassor'go was fighting the slender enemy, however the black and yellow colored being was to quick for him. It cut him down, finishing him with a stab to the back of the neck. The slender enemy then charged at Jonto's back, blades drawn for the kill. Before he could reach the leader, Tyron used his force abilities to push the enemy back into a rod, placed in the wall for gas filters, impaling and killing it.
Arous then used the force to pull one of the blades that the enemy dropped. He lunged over the Guark's head and swung the blade for his neck. Guark moved his head just enough for Tyron to miss his neck but cut through his helmet exposing his lizard face. The Jedi landed and readied to fight with Jonto, but he stood still.
"Wait, Jedi." Jonto said removing his helmet. Jonto and Guark made eye contact and their eyes did not break view. "Guark,.. You're alive?"
