I wrote this and played it through a role-playing dice game of Star Wars at
the same time, so all battle sequences are based through the combat of the
game I played. I'm the only player, so I controlled each main character.
Write a review so I know what you think. This fic will gain a new chapter
every Friday.

Episode I
New Conflict
*****
The universe seams very peaceful after many wars that raged across the galaxy and planets. In the middle of the galaxy, in the Core Worlds near the Koornacht Cluster, a planet that is one big city floats in peace. The entire city and planet is known as Coruscant, sometimes known to be the capital of the universe for the location of the Jedi Temple and the Galactic Senate.
In the noise filled capital, many people of many different species race to get to their destination. Each person rides on several different lanes; some even created some of their own lanes.
In the mixed species filled city, stands a giant building, called the Megazaign Corporation. Its sign glows in the night sky, as many vehicles passes right by, paying no attention to the building.
*****
At the front doors, three guards stands in ready, watching for any intruders that may sneak in or attack the building. All three guards are human, two of them talking to one another and watching a game on a monitor they brought into work. The third waits outside, keeping his eyes open.
Unnoticed by the third guard, six rebel soldiers' sneaks towards the building, attempting to attack.
Out of the darkness, each of the rebels fires a single round at the alone third guard. The first two rebels miss the guard, putting him on high alert. The third rebel barely hits the guard, only causing a small scratch.
As the guard turns to run to take cover with the other guards, the forth rebel shot and kills the third guard in the back.
As the two other guards quickly gets out of their posts from the monitor, the other two rebels fires their shots, using the darkness for their cover. Both of the rebels miss their target.
The two remaining guards stand in front of the buildings entrance, returning fire. Both sides exchanges energy blasts from their blaster pistols. A couple of rebels and both guards barely dodging the blaster pistol fires from the opposite side.
Both sides exchange more rounds of energy. One of the two remaining guards gets shot in the shoulder, knocking him down to the ground. The last remaining guard turns to check on his fallen comrade and then is shot in the leg.
The two wounded guards remain on the ground, baring the pain of being shot by the attackers. As they look into the darkness, six figures walks out of the darkness, and into the light.
"Surrender or die," one of the attackers yells.
The two wounded guards toss their blaster pistols out of their own reach, and hold only one of their hands up, keeping the other on their wound, signaling that they surrender.
Three of the six attackers move towards the front entrance to gain access, as the other three takes care of the two wounded guards, tying them up in their post station. As the three rebels runs over to the front entrance after tying the guards up, the other group finally unlocks the door.
"Garth," says the rebel leader. "You go in first."
"Yes sir," Garth went, moving into the building first.
Garth takes point as the rest of the rebels follow from behind. Garth races ahead to the end of the hallway where it splits. Garth peeks around the corner, spotting two guards, who in return spotted him.
The two guards immediately fire their blaster pistol, forcing Garth to take cover behind the corner wall. The rest of the rebels immediately move faster to catch up to Garth in order to give him support.
Garth returns fire, missing both guards completely. The two guards return fire, one almost hitting Garth.
Garth takes a steady cool breath, as he reaches around the corner and fire his blaster pistol again. Again he misses, and the two guards return fire, one barely misses him. Sparks as the guard's blaster pistol hits the corner, and the sparks scratches Garth in his left eye.
The rest of the rebels comes out of the corner, surprising the two guards, shot and killed them both. Garth becomes a little surprise as well, but is little glad that his comrades have helped him.
Garth starts to get up, but then one of the rebels stops him, "hang on Garth."
The rebel looks on the scratch on Garths face. It is bleeding, but nothing to worry about.
"That's going to leave a scar," the rebel said. "But at least you wont bleed to death, it's nothing too serious to even pay any attention too."
"Good," says the rebel strike leader, "then lets go and finish our mission."
The rebels continue on, as Garth is still getting up. This time the rebel strike leader takes point as the rest follows, and Garth following from behind.
*****
Watching through a monitor in another room, a group of security guards watches the intruders as they continue on.
"Are they the rebels that has been a pain in the rear for the last year?" Asks the head security guard.
"Most likely sir," answers one of the security guards watching the monitor.
"Activate the droids," the head security orders.
"Which of the droids should I activate sir?" The security guard asks.
"Send out those destroyer droids from the Trade Federation," the head security orders.
"But those destroyers are out of date, they haven't been used since the Clone Wars." The security man mentions.
"I am aware of that," says the head security. "We'll use those droids to hold them until we get Hellzoid activated."
"Hellzoid, are you sure that's wise sir?" The security man asks.
The head security glares at his security man, forcing him to follow the given orders. The security man types his orders into the computer, given to activate the destroyers.
The head security turns to another security man, "finish whatever is needed to finish the Hellzoid, and report back to me."
"Yes sir," the security man said, and then leaves to follow his orders.
*****
Garth and the rest of the rebels continue running through the hallway, looking for their target.
The strike leader stops in front of a door that says: "Corporation Information Room."
"I think this is it," says the strike leader. The leader turns to one of his men and orders, "unlock it."
The rebel with his technological gear starts working on deactivating the lock and the security in the room.
As everyone waits in silence, a rebel suddenly breaks the silence, "hey, does everyone hear that?"
The tech specialist stops working, and everyone listens. It sounds like a metal ball rolling very fast on the steel floor. The sound is getting louder, meaning that something is heading their way.
"Spread out," the strike leader orders.
All the rebels' moves to take cover behind the wall pillars, pointing their blaster pistols towards the direction of where the sound is coming from.
The tech specialist rebel continues working, trying to unlock the door and deactivate the security in the room all at the same time.
Everyone continues to wait in silence, getting irritated from the sound, as it continues to get louder.
The tech specialist is beginning to sweat, from the nervousness of doing his job, and wondering what's coming at the same time.
Finally, the rebels spots three metal balls rolling in their direction. The rebels raise their weapons to start firing. The tech specialist stops working, in order to see what is coming, glad that a pillar is giving him cover.
The three balls stop about less then five meters from the rebels. The rebels continue to stare at the three balls, which are just still standing there.
Suddenly, the three balls transforms into three droids with four spider type legs connected to the ball shaped waist. The droids has two skinny arms with double barrels. The head of the droids has a small head.
"Take them out," the strike leader immediately commands.
The tech specialist immediately start working again on the door and the security in the room, as the rebels starts firing their blaster pistols.
The three droids immediately activate their shields before they start firing their blaster pistols built into their arms.
The three droids shields weaken from the rebel's blaster pistols. Though the rebels taken good cover, the strike leader barely dodges physical damages from the droids blasters.
Garth fires his blaster pistol at one of the destroyers, that neutralizes its shields, leaving it defenseless. After both sides continue to exchange fires, Garth fires another round into the droid, damaging it almost completely.
The tech specialist struggles to concentrate as the firefight is going on behind him. The specialist takes another look at the destroyers, then immediately back to his work. "How could they still be active after all this time."
After the long firefight, all three droids shields are now deactivated, and the rebels are getting tired from the current battle.
The strike leader has finally managed to destroy one of the three destroyers, leaving only two damaged destroyers left to continue the battle.
The tech specialist rebel finally manages to complete his tasks, "success." The rebel then immediately jumps into the room, to take better cover from the remaining two destroyers.
Garth fires another shot into the destroyer he tried to destroy earlier, finishing it off completely. Another rebel also fires another single shot, to destroy the last destroyer.
"Alright, everyone inside now," the strike leader orders.
Everyone didn't waste any time, and moves into the room, locking it once everyone is inside.
The rebels catch their breath as they barely escape from that battle.
The strike leader waist no time, "get to work so we can get the hell out of here."
The tech specialist sits down in front of the computer and start working.
*****
"The rebels are in the Corporation Information Room sir," the security man reports.
The head security walks up to the computer and activates the communications link to the security working on the Hellzoid.
"How's it coming?" The head security demand.
"We're almost done, another few minutes and it'll be ready for combat. However, we can't get the shield to work, but the structures and armor is strong."
"That'll be good," said the head security. "Just finish whatever you need, and then report back to me when you're finished."
*****
The rebels stay in standby and ready, waiting for any opposing enemies to rush into the room.
"I just don't understand this at all," the tech specialist thought aloud as he works.
"Huh? What?" Garth asks, watching the security camera pictures outside of the room.
The tech specialist answers, "those destroyers were old, almost an antique."
"Huh?" Said a rebel nearby, catching his interest.
The tech specialist continues, "Those destroyers are old fashion, very old. The last time those models were used was when the Trade Federation was defeated after the Clone Wars ended. Ever since the war ended, the Trade Federation stop producing that model class."
The strike leader steps in, "this corporation specializes in bringing the old fashion technology back to the present. The corporation is even rebuilding the old Galactic Empire Star Destroyers and the Old Republic Clone Army Attack Gunship."
"That answers my question," the tech specialist went. "Now my next question is, why?"
"We still don't understand ourselves," the strike leader answers. "They probably want the New Republic to think that the corporation is bringing history back to the present for good use."
"What about the Jedi?" Garth asks.
The strike leaders turns to Garth, "they're fighting their own war right now."
"Oh yeah, that's right," a rebel went. "Against the Jedi's who left the temple, right? 'Cause they no longer believe in the Jedi code?"
"That's right," the strike leader answers. "The Jedi's chased the Rogue out of Coruscant, so no one knows where the Rogue temple or headquarters is located. But the New Republic believe that we're threatening their economy, so the Jedi's may be sending some help against us."
"That wont be good," another rebel said.
"Jedi's aren't invincible," Garth argues. "They're good, but they can still be killed."
The strike leader gives Garth a deep glare, "we will not fight anyone from the New Republic, only this corporation."
"I know," Garth argues back. "But if anyone from the New Republic tries to kill me, I'm going to kill them in return."
The strike leader clenches in anger as he grabs Garth's armor, and lifts him up. "Listen, I don't care how you fight this war, but as long as your in the Alderaan Freedom Fighters Force, you will follow our rules. If you don't follow our rules, then I will execute you myself."
The strike leader then pushes Garth back into the chair. Garth still filled with anger, he didn't care what his strike leader thinks, if someone from the New Republic is sent to kill him, he will kill in return.
"How long?" The strike leader asks.
"I just locked the security out of this system so they wont know what we're doing," the tech specialist answers. "Now I'm searching for everything I need right now."
*****
"Sir, I can't get in, they locked us out," the security man reports.
"What?" The head security went.
"The rebels has locked us out somehow, I can't get in. They changed the codes."
"Damn it, we underestimate these rebels," the head security admits. "Just try and get in."
"Yes sir," the security man said, and starts using his computer skills to get back in.
"Sir, the Hellzoid is complete," says another security man through the comlink.
The head security walks over to the comlink, "good, I want the Hellzoid to intercept the rebels at the garage, the rebels will escape through there. These rebels are smart, they never escape through the same way they came in. The garage is the closes area from that room."
"No," the security man who is trying to get back into the computer system.
The head security looks back to the security man.
"Those rebel bastards put a virus in the system. I'll have to reboot, delete some programs, rewrite the programs and then try again."
"How long will that take?" The head security asks.
"Ten, fifteen minutes," the security man answers.
*****
"Done," the tech specialist said, taking out a disk that he put into the computer.
"Well?" The strike leader asks.
"There wasn't any useful information we could use. But I did complete the other task though."
"Good," the strike leader is pleased. "Then lets move out, the garage isn't that far from here."
The rebels grab their gear, and heads in the direction of the garage.
*****
The rebel's runs through the hallway, with their guards up, but no one to fight, making them nervous.
"Where's the enemy?" One of the rebels asks.
Garth thinks to himself, we're must be running into a trap. No way the security is stupid enough to send all of their security in the same area, let alone to have a small group of security.
The rebels reach the end of the hallway, with a door at the end.
"Zen," the strike leader orders.
The tech specialist runs up to the door to unlock it. After a short while, the tech specialist Zen said, "it's already unlocked."
"That's new," a rebel went.
The strike leader swallows a deep breath, as he enters the garage first.
The garage seems empty enough, except for a few air speeders. Nobody is present in the garage, except for the rebels.
Walking into the garage, looking for a couple of good speeders.
Suddenly, a loud clank sound breaks the silence, as the rebels spun around in fright, seeing that a giant spider shaped droid blocking the entrance of the garage. A large cannon barrel is attached onto the back. The droid has three separate blaster barrels, one on the each side, and the third on its head.
"Let's do this," the strike leader commands.
One of the rebels fires a blaster into the droids structure, causing a large clank sound.
The tech specialist Zen immediately went, "that sound means that the structure is very strong."
The rebels continue to fire at the Hellzoid, not dealing any damages.
The Hellzoid charges up it's cannon, and shot its cannon at the rebels. The rebels quickly dodge the attack, but the strike leader sprains his ankle while escaping. Before the strike leader could hit the ground, the Hellzoid's weapon hits him, blasting him to oblivion.
"No," one of the rebels yells out, as he fires more shots from his blaster, scoring a hit, but causes no damages.
The entire remaining five rebels including Garth continue to battle the Hellzoid, barely damaging the giant droid.
The Hellzoid returns fire with its three-blaster barrels, injuring another rebel very badly. The other two shots missed Zen and Garth completely.
"Oh no," Zen went, watching his comrade falls after watching his commander officer gets killed.
The rebels continue to try an damage the Hellzoid, but none is working. The Hellzoid then returns fire with its three-blaster barrels, all at Zen. Zen barely escapes the attack.
*****
In the security office, the security man is still busy rewriting many programs, in order to see what the rebels took.
The head security watches the garage battle through the security monitors. The rebels did dealt some damages to the Hellzoid, but not much.
The head security smiles, "this is perfect."
*****
The rebels continue to battle the Hellzoid, even the injured rebel still continues to battle. Even though they're barely damaging the droid, they're making some progress.
The Hellzoid continues to counter attack, and the rebels are growing tired of dodging the lasers.
As soon as Garth hits the floor from dodging, Garth makes his shot head on, but the Hellzoid is still standing.
"Damn it," Garth thought aloud.
Another rebel steps in place, fires another round at the droid, damaging it.
Zen can tell that the droid is almost dead.
*****
"Damn, it's almost dead," the head security went. "The rebels are winning, but yet at the same time weakening." The head security turns back to the security man, "how's it going?'
"Needs to be rebooted one last time," the security man went, "then I can see what the rebels were after."
*****
The Hellzoid fires it's cannon again at the rebel towards Garth, but the beam flies right past him, causing a large explosion from behind.
The rebels continue their battle, seeing signs that the Hellzoid is weakening. Each of the rebels taken it's own shot at the Hellzoid, barely damaging it at all. When Zen takes turn, he shot a critical damage on the giant droid.
The Hellzoid shakes violently after receiving the last shot. Electrical currents cover the entire droid, before it falls.
"Let's get the hell out of here," Garth yells out.
Zen grabs the wounded rebel, and everyone chosen their own speeder and escapes through the garage opening.
*****
"No," the head security cries out, watching the rebels escape after barely defeating the Hellzoid.
"I got it," the security man reports, as he gains access to the computer that the rebels used.
The head security walks over to the screen, hoping their might be something that could save his job.
The screen appears, showing only a alien number, counting down.
Both security men eyes widen as they both realize what the countdown is for.
*****
The rebels separate as they fly off in their stolen speeders, just as the building erupts into flames and explodes.
Garth looks back, watching the building erupts, proving that he has accomplished his mission.
Garth raises his comlink, "mission accomplished. I'll meet the rest of you back on Alderaan."
Just as he turns his comlink off, his speeder shakes violently as if something hit him from behind.
Garth looks behind, seeing that the back of his speeder must've been hit by something.
Garth fight to pilot the speeder to crash onto a building in order to save his fall onto the ground.
The speeder speeds through the skies with intense speed, barely dodging the other speeders that fly by in front.
"Come on, come on," Garth urges as he continues to try and pilot the speeder.
*****
In the middle of the street, a woman walks along, wearing a hood and cape, walking silently, staring at the ground.
"What am I going to do?" The woman asks herself aloud.
Then suddenly she hears something whistling in the sky. She looks up, seeing a speeder has just flown past her, with the rear covered in fire.
"What was that?" The woman asks herself aloud again.
*****
Garth grinds his teeth, as he struggles to keep his speeder from crashing head first into the bridge that he is heading for. His plan for crashing into or onto a building has changed when he couldn't control his steering anymore.
The speeder will crash onto the in a manner of seconds. Garth quickly raises the speeders sticks, in order to lift the front end of it.
The speeders rear then hits the bridge with intense force, as it slides across the surface, making intense ear piercing sound as it slides. The speeder gradually slows down as it continues across the bridge surface.
Garth looks out the glass shield, seeing that the speeder is continuing to slide towards the bridges side, about to go over.
"Oh no," Garth went.
Garth quickly opens the hatch, and jumps out of the cockpit, just before the speeder hits the bridges rails and flies over and down into the ground below.
Garth looks up, seeing that the bridge is empty, nobody is coming nor going. His speeder is now history, now he must find a way back to Alderaan, or anywhere near it.
With the area still empty, Garth gets back up, shacking it off after that experience. Catching his breath, Garth senses that he is safe for now.
The bridge remains quiet as Garth walks away, hoping that he wont run into any more trouble, at least not right now.
*****
Garth walks along the side of the road, looking for a good place to rest. As Garth looks, he realizes that he isn't alone.
Garth looks behind him, realizing that there are three men walking towards him. Garth reaches for his blaster pistol, but realizes that he left it in the speeder.
"Damn it," Garth thought aloud.
Garth looks back at the three men, they're possibly from the law enforcement.
Garth yells out, "If you want me, then come and get me."
Garth gets into a martial arts stance, ready to fight hand-to-hand combat.
The three men stop, as several speeders moves into view. Each of those speeders is from the local law enforcements.
Garth knows he doesn't stand a chance here, "damn." Garth turns around, and starts running, away from the local law enforcers.
The law enforcers chase Garth, on the empty streets of Coruscant high in the sky. Garth couldn't allow himself to be captured. After destroying that building, he's now considered as a terrorist, especially since his group didn't collect the information they were looking for.
*****
Watching the law chasing a criminal from a distance, the woman in the hood watches.
"What's going on?" The woman asks herself aloud.
*****
Garth turns a corner into an alley, entering the backdoor of some building. The law enforcers follow through into the same door of the same building.
As the law runs through the door, hiding behind it is Garth, who walks out of his hiding place, and back into the alley. In the alley, the law enforcement speeders comes out of nowhere, shinning a light into the alley.
"Surrender now," the enforcer in the speeder commands.
Shielding the light from his eyes, Garth thinks to figure out what to do now, surrender is not an option.
Looking back into the building, seeing the three men that were chasing him are about to flank him.
Garth grinds his teeth, and runs further into the alleys, towards the edge.
The speeder fires some lasers to stop him, but Garth makes to the edge, and jumps into the darkness.
*****
Blackness fills Garth's sight. When Garth opens his eyes, dim lights began to restore to his sight.
Garth stands up with such quick speed that his head nearly rolled right off.
Grabbing his throbbing head after landing on a pile of junk, Garth is glad to have survived the fall, somehow.
"Are you alright?' A woman voice said that came out of nowhere.
Garth quickly turns in the direction of where the voice came from, finding a woman in a hooded cloak, sitting on a box near him.
*****
To Be Continued...

Next Episode:
Garth waits in silence, hearing several pairs of footsteps are echoing closer towards his position. His sweat slowly rolls down the side of his head, as he struggles to control his breathing, staying as quiet as possible.
After what felt like an eternity, Garth sees several law enforcers walking up the alley, each carrying their own blaster pistol
Garth continues to struggle to control his breathing. If he breathes to loud, he's caught.
"Hold it," says one of the law enforcers, holding a hand-held radar device. "We're not alone, there's something here."
All the law enforcers places themselves on high alert, with their blaster pistols and rifles ready, they start searching the area.
Damn it, Garth thinks to himself.

Watching through a monitor in another room, a group of security guards watches the intruders as they continue on.
"Are they the rebels that has been a pain in the rear for the last year?" Asks the head security guard.
"Most likely sir," answers one of the security guards watching the monitor.
"Activate the droids," the head security orders.
"Which of the droids should I activate sir?" The security guard asks.

"Huh?" Said a rebel nearby, catching his interest.
The tech specialist continues, "Those destroyers are old fashion, very old. The last time those models were used was when the Trade Federation was defeated after the Clone Wars ended. Ever since the war ended, the Trade Federation stop producing that model class."
The strike leader steps in, "this corporation specializes in bringing the old fashion technology back to the present. The corporation is even rebuilding the old Galactic Empire Star Destroyers and the Old Republic Clone Army Attack Gunship."
"That answers my question," the tech specialist went. "Now my next question is, why?"
"We still don't understand ourselves," the strike leader answers. "They probably want the New Republic to think that the corporation is bringing history back to the present for good use."
"What about the Jedi?" Garth asks.
The strike leaders turns to Garth, "they're fighting their own war right now."
"Oh yeah, that's right," a rebel went. "Against the Jedi's who left the temple, right? 'Cause they no longer believe in the Jedi code?"
"That's right," the strike leader answers. "The Jedi's chased the Rogue out of Coruscant, so no one knows where the Rogue temple or headquarters is located. But the New Republic believe that we're threatening their economy, so the Jedi's may be sending some help against us."
"That wont be good," another rebel said.
"Jedi's aren't invincible," Garth argues. "They're good, but they can still be killed."
The strike leader gives Garth a deep glare, "we will not fight anyone from the New Republic, only this corporation."
"I know," Garth argues back. "But if anyone from the New Republic tries to kill me, I'm going to kill them in return."
The strike leader clenches in anger as he grabs Garth's armor, and lifts him up. "Listen, I don't care how you fight this war, but as long as your in the Alderaan Freedom Fighters Force, you will follow our rules. If you don't follow our rules, then I will execute you myself."
The strike leader then pushes Garth back into the chair. Garth still filled with anger, he didn't care what his strike leader thinks, if someone from the New Republic is sent to kill him, he will kill in return.
"How long?" The strike leader asks.
"I just locked the security out of this system so they wont know what we're doing," the tech specialist answers. "Now I'm searching for everything I need right now."
*****
"Sir, I can't get in, they locked us out," the security man reports.
"What?" The head security went.
"The rebels has locked us out somehow, I can't get in. They changed the codes."
"Damn it, we underestimate these rebels," the head security admits. "Just try and get in."
"Yes sir," the security man said, and starts using his computer skills to get back in.
"Sir, the Hellzoid is complete," says another security man through the comlink.
The head security walks over to the comlink, "good, I want the Hellzoid to intercept the rebels at the garage, the rebels will escape through there. These rebels are smart, they never escape through the same way they came in. The garage is the closes area from that room."
"No," the security man who is trying to get back into the computer system.
The head security looks back to the security man.
"Those rebel bastards put a virus in the system. I'll have to reboot, delete some programs, rewrite the programs and then try again."
"How long will that take?" The head security asks.
"Ten, fifteen minutes," the security man answers.
*****
"Done," the tech specialist said, taking out a disk that he put into the computer.
"Well?" The strike leader asks.
"There wasn't any useful information we could use. But I did complete the other task though."
"Good," the strike leader is pleased. "Then lets move out, the garage isn't that far from here."
The rebels grab their gear, and heads in the direction of the garage.
*****
The rebel's runs through the hallway, with their guards up, but no one to fight, making them nervous.
"Where's the enemy?" One of the rebels asks.
Garth thinks to himself, we're must be running into a trap. No way the security is stupid enough to send all of their security in the same area, let alone to have a small group of security.
The rebels reach the end of the hallway, with a door at the end.
"Zen," the strike leader orders.
The tech specialist runs up to the door to unlock it. After a short while, the tech specialist Zen said, "it's already unlocked."
"That's new," a rebel went.
The strike leader swallows a deep breath, as he enters the garage first.
The garage seems empty enough, except for a few air speeders. Nobody is present in the garage, except for the rebels.
Walking into the garage, looking for a couple of good speeders.
Suddenly, a loud clank sound breaks the silence, as the rebels spun around in fright, seeing that a giant spider shaped droid blocking the entrance of the garage. A large cannon barrel is attached onto the back. The droid has three separate blaster barrels, one on the each side, and the third on its head.
"Let's do this," the strike leader commands.
One of the rebels fires a blaster into the droids structure, causing a large clank sound.
The tech specialist Zen immediately went, "that sound means that the structure is very strong."
The rebels continue to fire at the Hellzoid, not dealing any damages.
The Hellzoid charges up it's cannon, and shot its cannon at the rebels. The rebels quickly dodge the attack, but the strike leader sprains his ankle while escaping. Before the strike leader could hit the ground, the Hellzoid's weapon hits him, blasting him to oblivion.
"No," one of the rebels yells out, as he fires more shots from his blaster, scoring a hit, but causes no damages.
The entire remaining five rebels including Garth continue to battle the Hellzoid, barely damaging the giant droid.
The Hellzoid returns fire with its three-blaster barrels, injuring another rebel very badly. The other two shots missed Zen and Garth completely.
"Oh no," Zen went, watching his comrade falls after watching his commander officer gets killed.
The rebels continue to try an damage the Hellzoid, but none is working. The Hellzoid then returns fire with its three-blaster barrels, all at Zen. Zen barely escapes the attack.
*****
In the security office, the security man is still busy rewriting many programs, in order to see what the rebels took.
The head security watches the garage battle through the security monitors. The rebels did dealt some damages to the Hellzoid, but not much.
The head security smiles, "this is perfect."
*****
The rebels continue to battle the Hellzoid, even the injured rebel still continues to battle. Even though they're barely damaging the droid, they're making some progress.
The Hellzoid continues to counter attack, and the rebels are growing tired of dodging the lasers.
As soon as Garth hits the floor from dodging, Garth makes his shot head on, but the Hellzoid is still standing.
"Damn it," Garth thought aloud.
Another rebel steps in place, fires another round at the droid, damaging it.
Zen can tell that the droid is almost dead.
*****
"Damn, it's almost dead," the head security went. "The rebels are winning, but yet at the same time weakening." The head security turns back to the security man, "how's it going?'
"Needs to be rebooted one last time," the security man went, "then I can see what the rebels were after."
*****
The Hellzoid fires it's cannon again at the rebel towards Garth, but the beam flies right past him, causing a large explosion from behind.
The rebels continue their battle, seeing signs that the Hellzoid is weakening. Each of the rebels taken it's own shot at the Hellzoid, barely damaging it at all. When Zen takes turn, he shot a critical damage on the giant droid.
The Hellzoid shakes violently after receiving the last shot. Electrical currents cover the entire droid, before it falls.
"Let's get the hell out of here," Garth yells out.
Zen grabs the wounded rebel, and everyone chosen their own speeder and escapes through the garage opening.
*****
"No," the head security cries out, watching the rebels escape after barely defeating the Hellzoid.
"I got it," the security man reports, as he gains access to the computer that the rebels used.
The head security walks over to the screen, hoping their might be something that could save his job.
The screen appears, showing only a alien number, counting down.
Both security men eyes widen as they both realize what the countdown is for.
*****
The rebels separate as they fly off in their stolen speeders, just as the building erupts into flames and explodes.
Garth looks back, watching the building erupts, proving that he has accomplished his mission.
Garth raises his comlink, "mission accomplished. I'll meet the rest of you back on Alderaan."
Just as he turns his comlink off, his speeder shakes violently as if something hit him from behind.
Garth looks behind, seeing that the back of his speeder must've been hit by something.
Garth fight to pilot the speeder to crash onto a building in order to save his fall onto the ground.
The speeder speeds through the skies with intense speed, barely dodging the other speeders that fly by in front.
"Come on, come on," Garth urges as he continues to try and pilot the speeder.
*****
In the middle of the street, a woman walks along, wearing a hood and cape, walking silently, staring at the ground.
"What am I going to do?" The woman asks herself aloud.
Then suddenly she hears something whistling in the sky. She looks up, seeing a speeder has just flown past her, with the rear covered in fire.
"What was that?" The woman asks herself aloud again.
*****
Garth grinds his teeth, as he struggles to keep his speeder from crashing head first into the bridge that he is heading for. His plan for crashing into or onto a building has changed when he couldn't control his steering anymore.
The speeder will crash onto the in a manner of seconds. Garth quickly raises the speeders sticks, in order to lift the front end of it.
The speeders rear then hits the bridge with intense force, as it slides across the surface, making intense ear piercing sound as it slides. The speeder gradually slows down as it continues across the bridge surface.
Garth looks out the glass shield, seeing that the speeder is continuing to slide towards the bridges side, about to go over.
"Oh no," Garth went.
Garth quickly opens the hatch, and jumps out of the cockpit, just before the speeder hits the bridges rails and flies over and down into the ground below.
Garth looks up, seeing that the bridge is empty, nobody is coming nor going. His speeder is now history, now he must find a way back to Alderaan, or anywhere near it.
With the area still empty, Garth gets back up, shacking it off after that experience. Catching his breath, Garth senses that he is safe for now.
The bridge remains quiet as Garth walks away, hoping that he wont run into any more trouble, at least not right now.
*****
Garth walks along the side of the road, looking for a good place to rest. As Garth looks, he realizes that he isn't alone.
Garth looks behind him, realizing that there are three men walking towards him. Garth reaches for his blaster pistol, but realizes that he left it in the speeder.
"Damn it," Garth thought aloud.
Garth looks back at the three men, they're possibly from the law enforcement.
Garth yells out, "If you want me, then come and get me."
Garth gets into a martial arts stance, ready to fight hand-to-hand combat.
The three men stop, as several speeders moves into view. Each of those speeders is from the local law enforcements.
Garth knows he doesn't stand a chance here, "damn." Garth turns around, and starts running, away from the local law enforcers.
The law enforcers chase Garth, on the empty streets of Coruscant high in the sky. Garth couldn't allow himself to be captured. After destroying that building, he's now considered as a terrorist, especially since his group didn't collect the information they were looking for.
*****
Watching the law chasing a criminal from a distance, the woman in the hood watches.
"What's going on?" The woman asks herself aloud.
*****
Garth turns a corner into an alley, entering the backdoor of some building. The law enforcers follow through into the same door of the same building.
As the law runs through the door, hiding behind it is Garth, who walks out of his hiding place, and back into the alley. In the alley, the law enforcement speeders comes out of nowhere, shinning a light into the alley.
"Surrender now," the enforcer in the speeder commands.
Shielding the light from his eyes, Garth thinks to figure out what to do now, surrender is not an option.
Looking back into the building, seeing the three men that were chasing him are about to flank him.
Garth grinds his teeth, and runs further into the alleys, towards the edge.
The speeder fires some lasers to stop him, but Garth makes to the edge, and jumps into the darkness.
*****
Blackness fills Garth's sight. When Garth opens his eyes, dim lights began to restore to his sight.
Garth stands up with such quick speed that his head nearly rolled right off.
Grabbing his throbbing head after landing on a pile of junk, Garth is glad to have survived the fall, somehow.
"Are you alright?' A woman voice said that came out of nowhere.
Garth quickly turns in the direction of where the voice came from, finding a woman in a hooded cloak, sitting on a box near him.

Next Episode:
Garth waits in silence, hearing several pairs of footsteps are echoing closer towards his position. His sweat slowly rolls down the side of his head, as he struggles to control his breathing, staying as quiet as possible.
After what felt like an eternity, Garth sees several law enforcers walking up the alley, each carrying their own blaster pistol
Garth continues to struggle to control his breathing. If he breathes to loud, he's caught.
"Hold it," says one of the law enforcers, holding a hand-held radar device. "We're not alone, there's something here."
All the law enforcers places themselves on high alert, with their blaster pistols and rifles ready, they start searching the area.
Damn it, Garth thinks to himself.
