The Clone Wars
Chapter 3: The Battle
Obi-Wan and Zare took their place at the front line of the garrison of troops.
"Alright troops." Obi-Wan started his speech, "This should be an easy battle, we're going to defeat them in the battlefield, and then take it to the city itself. We should be able to take the city back and make this planet Separatist free. Let's just hope the other two can complete their mission." Obi-Wan took a brief pause, then continued, "Alright, now let's go!" The troops roared in excitement, and they started their march. LAAT Gunships soared through the sky above following the army, along with a couple of AT-TE walkers trailing along.
They marched until they caught the first glimpse of the droid army. Obi-Wan and Zare ignited their lightsabers. They gave the signal to charge, and that's exactly what the Clone troopers did.
The droid army did the same thing, and in just a few seconds, there were dozens of Clones and droids falling from enemy blaster shots. The LAAT Gunships and the AT-TE walkers firing at the opposing side, the same as with the Hailfire droids and Vulture droids on the Separatist side. Tons and tons of enemy droids found themselves cut into pieces by the blue or green beams of plasma of the lightsabers held by the two Jedi Masters.
Obi-Wan deflected a few blaster bolts back at the droids who fired them, then as he spun his blade around in his hand he cut a battle droid's chest panel causing it to malfunction and start shooting wildly. It shot a few of it's own until it finally blew a circuit and fell to the ground. Obi-Wan severed another droid's head from the rest of it's body, then quickly spun around and did the same to another battle droid. He deflected another blaster bolt and thrust his blade into another battle droid, then as he withdrew it, he severed another battle droid's body from it's legs.
A Hailfire droid went up in a heap of smoke and debris as the AT-TE finished it off with a powerful blast, the debris crushed several of enemy battle droids. However, the Hailfire droid managed to shoot off a few of it's rockets before it blew up, that collided into a LAAT Gunship and caused it to hurtle to the ground and crush a line of Clones.
Zare ducked under a stray blaster shot, then brung his blade up into a nearby battle droid's back in a flash of light. Then as he used the force to guide him, he jumped up into the air and brought his blade down on another battle droid cutting it in half, and then his blade severed another one in half. He deflected a few more blaster shots back at the owners, then as the force coursed through him, he released it from his hand causing a group of battle droids to fly through the air and crash into the ground. He then dodged another blaster bolt, then deflected another as he drove his blade into another battle droid.
The commanding Clone trooper blasted a battle droid into pieces, and a few others after that. He threw a thermal detonator at another group of droids and blew them into oblivion. After rolling out of the way of a thermal detonator along with a few enemy blaster shots, he found himself face to face with a super battle droid. The super battle droid took aim, but before it could fire, a beam of blue plasma jutted out of it's chest plate, then in a few flashes of light, it was cut up into pieces. "Thanks for the assistance General Kenobi." The commander said as he stood up straight and looked at the Jedi Master standing there holding his lightsaber.
"My pleasure commander." Obi-Wan flashed a grin. They quickly focused back on the battle at hand. The commander blasting several battle droids into pieces, as Obi-Wan continued slicing his way through tons of battle droids.
One of the AT-TE Walkers were taken down after a barrage of enemy fire from Hailfire droids and Vulture droids. The other AT-TE returned it's own barrage of fire and took down a few of the opposing vehicles to avenge the other deceased AT-TE.
After dispatching a few more battle droids, along with a couple of super battle droids, Zare encountered a Spider walker that was giving some Clones some trouble. With the force to guide him, he soared through the air toward the Spider walker, and landed right on top. He slashed away at the control panel of the Spider walker exposing it's circuits, then he thrust his blade down into the circuits, short circuiting it. Zare jumped off of the Spider droid before it blew into thousands of little pieces. Zare flashed a quick smile and continued his onslaught.
A few AAT Hovertanks made their way from the Separatist city to the battlefield. The droids seemed to be at their last resort. The AATs opened fire on all enemies, alive or inanimate. One of them fired at Obi-Wan, but Obi-Wan was able to evade the shot and jump up onto the top of the tank. A battle droid popped up from the top hatch of the tank, and quickly met it's demise at Obi-Wan's lightsaber blade. Obi-Wan then turned his attention on the tank's cannon and severed it from the rest of the tank. The tank had no means of attacking now, so Obi-Wan left it alone and jumped off, but what he didn't realize was that the tank AAT had extra laser turrets implanted in the sides as they shot overhead at a few Clones.
"That's perfect..." Obi-Wan scowled.
"No worries General, I got you covered." A nearby Clone trooper said as he climbed up on top of the AAT and threw a thermal detonator through the top hatch. He jumped back down off the tank and watched the fireworks.
"Much appreciated trooper." Obi-Wan complemented.
"My pleasure sir!" The trooper replied. After those final words came out, the Clone trooper was blasted down by a super battle droid, right before Obi-Wan's eyes. Obi-Wan turned his attention to the super battle droid with a scowl on his face. The super battle droid took aim and fired, but Obi-Wan reduced the droid to pieces in just a few seconds.
Zare kept cutting and thrusting through droids as he made his way through the battlefield. He eventually met up with Obi-Wan, who was also cutting through several of droids. They were side by side, cutting through what seemed to be an endless stream of battle droids and super battle droids. Just when they thought it couldn't get any worse, a droideka showed up. It uncoiled from it's ball mode and quickly raised it's built in shield. The droideka started it's rapid firing at the two Jedi Masters, both of them returning every shot directed at them, to no effect, the shield blocked everything, it could even block a lightsaber blade. But everyone knew that a droideka could only keep it's shield raised when it was stationary. Obi-Wan and Zare simultaneously force pushed the droideka back through the air, it collided into a few other battle droids conveniently lined up.
An AAT exploded into thousands of tiny pieces that pierced through battle droids when a LAAT Gunship fired it's last rockets at it. That same LAAT Gunship was shot down by a tailing Vulture droid. The battle waged for less than an hour. After the Clones and the two Jedi Masters were beginning to drive the droid army back into their city, they prepared themselves. They were going to storm the city after they finished off this battle.
