Ch 11: Alien allies (please review)

Inside the forge Darth Malice and general Pierce were with a large squad of imperial guardsmen. "Prepare to move out, we're going to link up with Lord Druak" Malice said. "You heard him let's move" Pierce said.

Darth Malice was in the front with his saber held out. The group walked through the coordinators until they reached a large corridor with a series of walkways over a massive chasm. On one of the upper walkways a squad of imperial traitors were in position and began firing at Darth Malice and his guardsmen.

Darth Malice quickly turned and deflected the blaster bolts sending several back , killing two of the imperial traitors. General Pierce and 3 of his guardsmen were armed with blaster rifles. Pierce and these guardsmen took aim and fired back. The traitors were shot down one by one until they were all dead.

Darth Malice saw another group of traitors take position on another walkway. Malice reached out with the force and ripped the walkway out of it's position then threw it down the chasm with all of the men on it screaming as they fell.

With the area clear Darth Malice and his guardsmen walked down the walkways until they reached the next area wotj the same kind of walkways. The first thing Darth Malice saw when he entered was an imperial navy trooper being hurled at him.

Malice quickly cut his own man in half just to keep him from hitting him. Darth Malice then saw it was a wookie warrior that had hurled the navy trooper. The wookie had dark brown almost black fur and gad a few patches of armor over his chest and arms.

The wookie saw Darth Malice and roared before charging at him. Darth Malice gripped the wookie with the force and crushed his skull before hurling the body over the edge. Behind this wookie at least a dozen more were waiting.

Several of these wookies's were armed with bowcasters, while the rest had viroblades. Despite the wookies brute strength and tenacity Darth Malice tore through them easily. When all of the wookies on the walkway were dead Darth Malice saw a pair of wookies on the platform above them activate several rakatan war droids.

Darth Malice quickly gripped both wookies with the force and snapped their necks, but by the time he did the droids were already activated. The rakatan droids were massive; each standing over 8 feet tall with 4 legs round the chassis and a pair of large guns on the end of the arms.

The three droids leapt down from the upper walkway down to the platform Darth Malice was on. Malice deflected the high velocity blasts from the droids then force charged to the nearest one and cut it on half. The second droid switched from blaster bolts to a continues beam from both its turrets at Darth Malice.

Darth Malice held his offhand out and used the force to deflect the beam back at the droid cutting it in two. The last Rakata droid began to back up as it continued firing at the dreadmaster. Darth Malice gripped the droid with the force and crushed it into a crumpled up piece of metal.

"It's a good thing the dreadmasters are the most loyal sith, I'd hate to have to bring one of them down" General Pierce said. One of his guardsmen nodded. Although imperial guardsmen were not suppose to know fear, even they feared the power of the dreadmasters.

With the area clear Darth Malice and his men walked deeper into the forge. Darth Malice entered a normal sized hallway that went straight for 20 feet then turned left. Just as they began down the next hallway a cry of pain came from around the corner.

Darth Malice hurried down the hallway and across the corner to see two imperial navy troopers on the ground being butchered by some kind of primitive creatures. The creatures looked like overstuffed teddybears with cloth hoods over their heads.

Each one weilded either a wooden spear or hatchet. "What the hell are those things!" General pierce said. When the creatures turned him one shouted "Ayyiah!" followed by the creatures running at them. General Pierce and his men gunned down several of them as Darth Malice force charged to them.
When he landed he crashed into the ground creating a massive burst of red force lightning all round him , killing all of the creatures. Pierce and two of the guardsmen came up to the bodies of the two navy troopers. "Dam and I thought sith were sadistic" one of the guardsmen said. " I think they started to eat them" Pierce said.

"Malgus must have manipulated them into serving him" Darth Malice said. Malice and his men continued down the hallway until the entered a massive room that was big enough to hold a capital ship inside. The room consisted of walkways over large cylinder shaped devices that brought liquid metal down the top and into a containment device filled with some kind of clear liquid (not water) that cooled it off almost instantly.

Droid arms lowered the cooled metal onto a holotram below each one. Throughout the chamber dozens of Imperial Navy troopers backed up by imperial guardsmen and a pair of elite sith marauders were in a fierce melee with imperial traitors, wookies, and the small savage creatures.

On one walkway a pair of navy troopers were gunning down several of the small savage creatures when a group hit them from behind. The creatures cut , stabbed , and gored the navy troopers as they screamed out in pain. On another walkway two wookies used their bear hands to rip two navy trooper's arms out of their sockets.

Backing up a group of imperial traitors were a group of wookies each with a pair of orange lightsabers. "Dark Jedi wookies, well i'm impressed" Darth Malice said. Darth Malice used the force grip to move one of the pylons that was spitting molten metal at the ewoks who were eating two dead navy troopers.
Darth Malice relished the sound of the ewoks screams as the liquid metal hit them. He then force charged to the walkway with the most ewoks on it. Darth Malice tore through the ewok ranks in a savage fury enjoying every moment as he massacred the sadistic little bears.

Darth Malice didn't know why but there was something very satisfying in killing the ewoks. While he tore through the ewoks General Pierce and his men with blaster rifles exchanged fire with a group of wookies. Pierce shot down 2 of the wookies before he saw 3 ewoks running at him.

Pierce put a blaster bolt through the first one's head. He almost took the second one's head off with his electrostaff. Finally he knocked the last one on it's back then crushed it's skull with his foot.
An imperial guardsmen with an electrostaff backed up as a wookie wielding a viroblade came at him. The wookie swung his blade, but the guardsmen ducked before hitting the wookie in the gut with his electrostaff.

The wookie bent down trying to staff on his feet but the guardsmen quickly came back and hit the wookie in the back of the head with his staff ending the wookie's life. Back on the other walkway Darth Malice saw three wookie dark Jedi rushing at him. These wookies had been trained in only the basics of the darkside and against Darth Malice they were nothing.

The first lunged at the sith pureblood with his sabers only to be impaled by Malice's lightsaber. Before he even pulled out his lightsaber Darth Malice force gripped the second one and crushed his throat. The third wookie dark Jedi force jumped over Darth Malice and swung both his sabers.

Darth Malice blocked the orange lightsabers then forced them aside before decapitating the wookie. Malice killed the last few ewoks in the chamber with a massive deathfield as the last two wooke dark Jedi were butchered by the elite Sith marauders. "My Lord area secure" General Pierce said.
Darth Malice and General Pierce continued on into an elevator on the other side of the chamber and went down.

When the elevator door opened Darth Malice saw his son and a team of imperial guardsmen waiting for him. " Lord Druak" Darth Malice said. "Father" Lord Druak said. "General Pierce , you and these guardsmen continue on. My son and I will find Darth Malgus alone" Darth Malice said.

General Pierce bowed then stepped off the elevator as Lord Druak stepped on. When Lord Druak reached his father's side the elevator door shut and the lift went up.
