And here's the other chapter that was supposed to be out 2 days ago, but noooo my timetable said otherwise. Oh well, I'll try not to screw up again, but it's likely this will happen again.
The Leviathan stood at the head of the Sith fleet around Taris, since the battle the fleet had grown significantly. This Sith capital ship was impressive in it's own way, hundreds of turbolaser cannons, 60 squads of Sith fighters and a garrison of over 4'000 troops – this truly was the head of the Sith fleet. Admiral Saul Karath stood at the bridge, staring over his fleet, it truly was a sight to behold. Suddenly a flash was spotted on the planet's surface, a squadron of ships thought they could outrun the Sith fleet. Karath simply did nothing, as the ships left the planet's atmosphere and came in range of the guns, Karath continued to watch their pointless struggle, as they were in the median range of the auto guns he gave the order and the turrets began firing. Every single ship in the entire fleet began firing it's autolasers, a barrage of death caught up with the ships as each one was engulfed in explosions, their hulls tearing apart like wet tissue paper. In a matter of minutes, there was nothing but a debris field.
The door to the bridge opened up and a tall figure entered, he seemed to pulsate dark side energy and everything around him shivered slightly as he entered. Without regarding the guard, the figure waltzed past everything on the bridge until he was stood directly behind the Admiral. He wore a jaw brace, likely covering a wound. His skin had turned a sickly grey colour that permeated the air around him
"Lord Malak." Karath turned around and knelt down in front of his leader.
"You may dispense with the formalities, Admiral. I trust that the blockade has been successful?" Malak asked with an air of superiority, Karath stood to address his master.
"Yes, Lord Malak. No ship has been able to breach our defences. The planet is contained." The admiral replied with a clinical sense of urgency, almost waiting for Malak to leave.
"Good. What of Bastila? How is the search coming along?" Malak asked while squinting his eyes which caused the admiral to visibly shudder.
"We have followed up on some leads, however some have been false. Evidence has pointed to the planet's gangs, however they are currently engaged in a bloody gang war that is hindering our efforts considerably." Admiral Karath replied almost gulping, recently an officer suffered at the mercy of Malak himself for committing a minor offence.
"Do not take too long. I want her alive, but I will take drastic action if necessary. Do not fail me, Admiral." Malak replied while scolding his subordinate, but Karath had proved himself a formidable ally, his part in the bombing of Telos was impressive and had brought the Republic to it's knees.
"Y- yes, Lord Malak. I will begin an operation to silence the gangs and bring Bastila to you, alive." Admiral Karath backed up and replied to Lord Malak, his presence was making the Admiral much less comfortable.
"Good. Now tell me what you have discovered about our surprise guests."
