YAY! Chapter 2!
The sound of blaster fire broke the wind swept waste land of Rennvar, Clones and Rebels lay dead across the icy lake, Rebel snipers perched atop the old towers of an ancient Jedi Temple. The 3 massive AT-TE Walkers and a massive wave of Clones trudged through the snowy plains and made there way onto the frozen lake, across the lake, an invisible battle could be heard echoing with the wind.
"Anything?" the driver of AT-TE 35-927 yelled to the gun man,
"Nothing but ice and snow Sir, no sign of an ambush!" The Clone gunner yelled back lowering his long-rang-bio-vision-goggles.
"Good, then their still unaware that we have 3 Walkers and 2000 more troops headed for their rears" the driver said quietly to himself.
"How many are there?" Jar Quall asked the private standing watch,
"Three Walkers and a half dozen of battalions, the cold suit generator is working, they haven't been able to pick up our heat signature," the private responded.
Good, then they don't realize that their ambush is becoming our ambush, Jar Quall thought to himself. Jar Quell had been one of the few Jedi who had survived the Sith overthrow, and he was also the Captain of the Rebel Army Research facility on Rennvar. Jar Quell was a skilled Jedi, though never aloud on the council because of his "history" Master Yoda had let him train under Master Windu, he wished he could see Master Yoda again, and wondered if the old Jedi Master was still alive, the only surviving Jedi he himself had met was Master K'Nobi. Master K'Nobi had placed him on Rennvar because it was too important to loose, the weapons factory and research facility hidden under the Ancient Jedi Ruins had been supplying the Rebellion with weapons and Intel for many months.
The Padwan's and their Masters had begun to evacuate, but it would take well over 7 hours before they could all get off the planet. Jar Quall had heard that Sideous' knew lackey had arrived on the planet, but he could not feel any sign of the Dark side, other than the Clones. But Jar Quall had a bad feeling in the back of his head, something was about to happen, he could feel it nagging him in the back of his head.
Jar Quall moved the binoculars over his eyes, he watched as the Clones drew closer to there trap, a few more yards and they would open fire, after troopers were taken down, they dispatch the AT-TE's with a few missiles and shots from their plasma turret. Everything was going according to plan, but then all the Clones, and the 3 AT-TE's stopped, just, stopped.
"Private what's going on?" Jar Quall yelled over too the private,
"I don't know sir, they just stopped…" the private responded.
Then Jar Quall felt an enormous surge of Dark energy appear as if from nowhere, he took the long range bio vision goggles from the private and looked toward the small army. Two figures cloaked in black, making them look like sorrowful eyes in the white and gray background, stood at the front of the ambush party.
How could no one have noticed them? Who are they? Why don't I ever attend those meetings the General holds! Jar Quall scolded himself.
"Captain, orders?" said the private next to him.
"Send out a scout droid and make it like a routine sweep of the area" Jar Quall ordered, he knew how to be sneaky, but the two figures disturbed him some how, it was as if they shared the amazing Dark energy he was sensing, but Jar Quall knew that one of them must be a decoy.
Darth Rakraf had ordered a full stop; he stood about 3 yards in front of the first battalion.
A single droid could be seen coming closer to him, he watched as the little hovering ball wobbled and rose and dropped, the wind was playing with it like a child plays with a ball.
Rakraf knew he had sensed something, this was no scouting droid, it was an old battered Recon Droid, which meant that the Rebels had spotted them, which would have meant that he was mere steps away from either entering a mine field, no, they were smarter than that; putting mines on a frozen lake was suicide. So there must be a trench or hill of some sort up ahead, they were planning to ambush his ambush, and what was this he was sensing, A JEDI!
Darth Rakraf located the Jedi quickly, there, to the north, he could make out small shapes and outlines moving about, but how could they not have seen them in the bio-vision goggles? Unless they were using a cold suite generator. Darth Rakraf turned on his heal and gave the order to fire on them, and then they would march strait through.
Jar Quall gave another look at the Clones, the two figures had disappeared again, but the Dark energy was still being emitted. What Jar Quall saw made him yell.
"EVACUATE THE TRENCH!" Jar Quall yelled.
Blue hot plasma erupted on the west end of the trench, throwing soldiers and chunks of ice into the air. He had not prepared for this, some how the Clones had spotted them, but not all of them, and he would make sure that the rest of his troops were out and up the ice cliff before the next plasma bolt hit.
Hope you liked the 2nd chapter! Even though no one sent me any reviews I'm still gona continue this story!
