Chapter 20 – The Battle for Radr
Ships fired everywhere as the desperate New Resistance kept on pushing at the blockade of pure evil. Hir Jondi raced up from the surface of the planet as he and Iqua Joll looked up at the blockade.
"You know cap, we could get one of those Star Destroyers and make a gap in the blockade so our forces could get through," Iqua told Hir as they raced towards the blockade.
"Good idea, straight ahead Iqua, we need to finish this," replied Hir Jondi as they put their S-foils in attack position and sped up.
An admiral stood at the bridge of a Star Destroyer looking at the failing Resistance as they pushed harder, but did not make a mark. Suddenly, an officer came behind him.
"Admiral, we have detected two Resistance fighters-"he began before the ship jolted and lost power and began drifting downwards.
The two pilots raced through the enlarging gap and into the battle above.
Captain Ackbar was in control on the Home One. The battle was not going his way. They could not break through. Suddenly he saw the chance, a break in the blockade.
"Captain Jondi did it!" he yelled, "Full speed on the fleet through that gap!"
The fleet began to race through the gap. Suddenly, there was a loud roar as the Demon's Fist jumped into the gap sending New Resistance ships crashing into it. Yuin and stopped more than half of the ground attackers from getting to the surface.
"Admiral, we have successfully stopped part of the New Resistance fleet from entering the atmosphere of the planet, however, a group of them have managed to enter and are coming closer to the entry point," an officer told Yuin.
"Tell all ship to fire on the ships that broke through, we will crush the New Resistance and if we don't we will all get killed by the Emperor!" yelled Yuin as he looked down at the attacking fleet get battered by laser fire.
The two shadows got closer.
"Ah, King Skywalker himself," said a low soar voice, "It is time to get my revenge."
"Rees, I see you've been hired by Darth Matty to come and kill me with Darth Briady," replied Ali.
"I'm more than that now you fool, you left me to rot in that trash compactor, I was destroyed, the Emperor restored me like my hero, General Grevious of the Separatists," snarled Rees, "I'm more than a bounty hunter, fool!"
"We'll see about-"started Ali.
"We won't see anything Skywalker, apart from you and your padawan's dead bodies falling down there," Briady interrupted as he ignited his red lightsaber.
"Oh no we won't!" yelled Shade as he force pushed Briady into the air igniting his yellow lightsaber and lunged at Rees clashing blades over his head barrel rolling behind him.
Ali ignited his green lightsaber as they surrounded Rees as he drew out all four arms igniting a further three red lightsabers.
"You fools, you will never beat me!" he yelled as he lunged at Ali kicking him off the edge with himself as they landed on a metal beam. Shade jumped down too as sliced at Rees who blocked it as Ali lunged forwards being blocked by his other lightsaber.
Briady picked himself up and jumped towards Ali as he ignited his lightsaber in the air clashing blades behind Ali as they duelled across the beam.
"It is time to get my revenge, Skywalker!" yelled Briady as he used a force push to attack Ali who blocked it and they both struggled to gain more power until they both flew off the beam and down below. Ali grabbed onto a beam and used the force to leap back onto his feet. Briady flew through the air towards Ali and they clashed blades as they duelled along the beam.
Shade flipped around whilst he attack the four arms of Rees.
"Your Resistance friends will never stop us they will never destroy the blockade," snarled Rees as he pushed his lightsaber against Shade's.
"I'd look up if I were you," joked Shade as Rees looked up to see transport ships and X-wings descending rapidly into the hole.
Shade kicked him in the face sending him flying off the beam and down below. He landed ontop of a transport ship.
Shade saw a TIE fighter about to shoot an X-wing and he jumped on top of it using the force to choke the pilot and control the fighter to fly it towards Rees.
Ali duelled Briady along the beam. Briady's eyes glowed red as he used the force to throw Ali along the beam sending his lightsaber flying behind him. Briady got ready to launch force lightning at him when the beam exploded sending Briady flying downwards as a grey piece of 'junk' flew past Ali.
"The falcon…" Ali whispered to himself.
He jumped up and onto the wall of the hole climbing up it.
Shade duelled with Rees on their separate ships. Rees kicked Shade in the face sending him flying down as he escaped in the TIE fighter.
Shade landed on the Millennium Falcon as the door opened and he climbed in and ran to the cockpit.
"Rawwww!" said the big furry creature.
"I don't understand what you are saying," Shade told him.
"Raghhhhhh!" yelled Chewbacca as piloted the ship out of the hole as lots of transport ships landed and soldiers charged out firing down stormtroopers.
Ali reached the top of the hole as stormtroopers fired his way he threw his lightsaber into one's chest drew it back out and beheaded the rest. He ran through the immense battle towards the city. Jundok had told him that a major objective was to protect the Queen of Radr.
The city was huge with towering colourful and grand buildings lying in the beautiful hills. He ran to where a battalion of stormtroopers were running down to and did not hesitate to follow them until they reached an opening where they were holding the Queen captive.
Ali snuck around the corner and saw that down from the building he was climbing was indeed the stormtroopers holding the Queen captive. He wasted no time and jumped in the middle where the Queen was using the force to kick a few stormtroopers in the face and throw his lightsaber around in a semi-circular shape to kill the rest.
"Your highness, it's not safe here, I recommend you hide somewhere they won't find you, I will tell you when it is safe," Ali instructed her before running off to take down the rest of the stormtroopers.
Jessike, Andy and Aljan fought the soldiers in the tunnel slicing them down and using thermal detonators to destroy the walkers.
Suddenly, Aljan's comlink went off.
"They're breaking through the other side."
