Since tonight I had no HW I was typing madly so here it is the final chapter.
Chapter 9 First Attack of War
About Five Months After Previous Chapter
Maul had a better army than he thought he would have. He had made plans for the first attack. The ocean planet bordering Coruscant, Maanan would be the first. The native species were Selkath, and the planet was essential because the Republic harvested Kolto there, Kolto is a healing substance and without it the Republic would cripple.
Although Maul was not aboard any ship on the fleet that was heading toward the place he would ensure victory. Tavion instead led the army. It would be quite easy to slip past Selkath defenses for her, even though there would probabley be none. But anyway the plan was to get onto the only city above water on the planet, Ahto city. Then they would quell any rebellion and take the rest.
Afterwards a base would be established and Selkath would be forced to make turrets to guard the city. If this doesn't sound realistic listen to this. Almost a thousand years ago a war raged between the Republic and the Sith and one battle field was Manaan.
The Selkath were so determined to stay neutral that they let both sides occupy the planet as long as there was no fighting. If the Selkath had been that easy to persuade they would be much easier to force. And the new army needed a crew, droids were not as suitable as organisms are and the Selkath would work for them. This was fool proof. And if the Republic attacked they would be ready.
Ten hours ago on Maanan
A battle will be fought but not now, people will die but only one side shall come out victorious. But now to focus the present not the future. The Sith had landed on Manaan, the thousands of droids had conquered the city in two hours. And Tavion had been very persuasive and gotten the mayor to surrender. They were now making the final preparations to fortify the city and then Tavions commlink chimed.
" What is it?" She hissed into the microphone.
" We are sorry to interrupt you, but the Republic has attacked and Jedi have boarded your ship." A battle droid said on the other side of the call.
" Fine I will be there, in the mean time stall the Jedi, send droids to ambush them, do something! Tavion out." With that she turned off the stupid thing and crushing it in the process.
" You!" She cried at a droid walking past her.
" Roger, roger." The droid answered.
" Ready my shuttle."
A few hours later
It had been very difficult to get to the hanger for Tavion's unarmed shuttle. The pilot had done it though and now she was on her way to the bridge of her flagship that she had nearly died landing in. Once she reached it the lieutenant droid greeted her.
" Greetings, the battle is going quite well the Republic is being driven back and has already lost ten ships." The droid said.
" Very well but I'm concerned about the Jedi!" Tavion sanpped.
" Yes I have been informed they are headed to he hanger bay."
" Damn." Tavion muttered and left quickly leaving the stupid baffled droid behind her.
Present Time the Hanger bay
Tavion had finally reached it and when the doors opened to the hanger who should she find there but Luke Skywalker dragging a wounded Mara Jade across the metal floor.
" Hello Skywalker." She said manically." I've been told about you."
Luke immediately set down his injured wife and activated his forest green saber. His eyes narrowed as Tavion did not draw hers.
" You don't know how sorry Maul will be when he hears he wont be able to kill you." Tavion said in completely feigned sadness.
" Why is that?" Asked Luke gripping the silver hilt of his saber much tighter.
" This is why!" Tavion cried activated her two blood red Sith blades and leaping at Luke. Her strike never hit as Luke parried. Quickly he struck back and was gutted with disappointment, as he knew now this fight would last a while.
This woman was no near as fast as Darth Maul but she had been trained by him, Luke could see this. Both he and she struck and parried, they leapt about the hanger striking unexpected blows at each other and never hitting. Luke knew he had to hurry if he was to get away alive but there was no way Tavion would let that happen.
But then for a brief moment as Tavion spun around Luke saw an opening. He took it. His forest green saber went right through Tavion's hip and between her legs and into the other. Instantly she fell down whining in pain. Luke grabbed his saber.
" Wait Jedi… finish this now." Tavion muttered weakly. Luke turned back to her.
" No, suffering in your shame of being bested is enough for you." Luke replied and he turned around grabbed Mara went into a ship and took off just as the est of the Republic fled.
Today the victory went to the Dark Army, but the Republic would live to see another bright and victorious day, but that day was not today. This was the first attack of war and the last chapter of this story.
Hoped you liked it. It was kind of short but don't worry, I'll make a sequel. I don't know what it will be called but look for it under the category Luke S. since you can't look under Luke S. and D. Maul because there is not one. Anyway thanks for reading and look for the sequel. Well actually I know the name it shall be called The Dark Wars. Hope that's a good title, I was thinking of a few and picked this one. Oh and there might even be another sequel to my sequel, but now I'm going to shut up. Review please.
