48. Battle for New York Part 3: UN Rumble

So, I went back and revised a few chapters without taking them down. Glad to say I did, some of them had quite a few spelling, grammar and several other mistakes I made and missed when I first put the chapters up.

WHO ELSE SAW THE FIRST BAD BATCH EPISODE AND LOVED IT!? I DID! Sorry, I have been waiting along time for the return of the Clone Wars so it can get a proper send off before Disney up and canceled it before they could actually finish it. I heard that those in charge were planning on doing a Top Gun themed episode and the first introduction of the Yuuzhan Vong. Wish we could have seen them, aw well.

Now then, while I only got two reviews for my last chapter, I am glad everyone enjoyed it. I'll be honest, when I was first planning this story out, I was just going to focus on the battle for the American continent and leave the rest world up for the rest of you to think would turn out, but I changed my mind and now here we are.

Onto Reviews/PMs:

42: Thanks man. Those kind words mean a lot to me.

Mpowers045: I think I just might use that idea for Ahsoka's wedding dress. As for Robert spending time with his kids, trust me he'll be spending a bit of time with his kids this chapter.

Spartan-626: Originally, I was going to have Robert be the one to kill Jana, but I'd figure let someone else kill a bad guy so Barriss was the one who did it and the best part, she didn't embrace the dark side. I always liked her better when she didn't betray Ahsoka and fall to the dark side, it kind of made no sense to me in general.

Alright, lets get this thing started. Disclaimers are the same as before, please enjoy.

Chapter 48: Battle of New York Part 3: UN Rumble

September 21st 2020 19BBY

0826 hours

New York City

Times Square

Normal point of view

Life was starting to return to the once bustling city. But pockets of resistance and others who had sought to use the chaos to do whatever they wanted to do were still in lurking around. One such group was looting a TD Bank outside of Paramount Plaza and had taken several civilians who didn't evacuate the city hostage.

One of the looters carried out a bag of money which was then loaded onto a truck while others went back for more money. "Anyone who so much as fucking moves or tries anything stupid will get riddled with lead. Just do what we say and you won't end up like those poor SOB's over there!" a looter with a T821 submachine gun shouted while another with a Micro Uzi threw the body of a dead officer onto a pile of bodies killed by the Rikers a few days earlier.

One of the hostages coughed loudly that it angered one of the baseball wielding looters who then started to beat the hostage senseless. The other hostages looked away from the scene, some of them comforting their children who were scared. "Shut that kid up or I'll blow his head off!" another of the looters shouted pointing their magnum at the family.

Meanwhile, behind the bank one of the looters had finished taking a leak behind a dumpster while his buddy kept watch. "Hey, you done yet? We need to get this money loaded up before those bastards show up!" the looter said, scanning the area with their stolen MP5K. His buddy didn't answer and when the looter turned around, he saw that they were gone. "Mac? Where the fuck are you!?" the looter shouted, but there was no reply.

Suddenly, they spotted a figure in a nearby alley and raised their submachine gun and fired. The noise of gunfire echoed all around the area and when the thug let go of the trigger, he saw that the figure he saw was gone. "Where are you?!" the thug shouted while reloading his weapon.

"Here." a voice behind him said and the thug was soon beaten senseless.

Back inside the bank, the thugs were still loading the money into the truck when they realized the two, they sent out back hadn't returned. When one of the other thugs was about to go check on them, the wall nearest to the vault soon had a large hole cut into it. The cut part of the wall collapsed and when one of the thugs went to check it out, they were pulled out of the bank dropping their weapon in the process. "SHIT!" another thug cursed and fired their RPK-74 out of the hole.

The other thugs fired their own weapons as well, emptying a full magazine from their weapons hoping to score a hit on who ever was attacking them. Once the gun fire stopped, they were all shocked to see that they hadn't hit a thing. Before any of them could figure out what happened, the same figure from before leapt over their heads and landed behind them. "Hey look, its someone who thinks he's Batman. Waste him!" the thug with the machine gun said, getting the rest of his buddies to aim their weapons at the figure, who was Robert.

(I Will Win, starts)

Raising his hand and pulling it towards him, Robert relieved all the goons of their weapons with the force. Without their guns, the thugs charged at him with nothing but their fists or in the case of some, their makeshift clubs.

Robert brought his arms up to block a strike from a baseball bat, he then kicked the attacker away before he punched another thug in the gut, rendering them unable to fight. Another thug swung their 9-iron at Roberts head, forcing him to back flip a couple of times only to find two other thugs were about to swing their bats at his head. Bending backwards, the two bat wielders hit each other in the head before they were given a split kick to the head, knocking them out.

"Try this you punk ass kid!" one of the knife wielding thugs shouted swiping his knife at the young soldier. Ducking and dodging each knife swipe, Robert gave the goon an uppercut to the jaw before kneeing them in the gut. Following this, Robert lifted the attacker up into the air and threw them into several of their allies.

"It's a strike!" Robert joked only to see that one of the few remaining thugs had picked up one of the handguns he relived earlier and started firing at him. Moving fast, Robert avoided the shots before he moved in close, ducked down and punched the thug in the groin. "Cup Check!" he joked again, kicking the handgun away from the thug in pain. "Anyone else!?" he asked.

He got his answer in the form of one bigger heavily armored thug's. "I had to ask." He said to himself and ducked to avoid a punch from the thug. He dodged one but failed to avoid the second one. This time, it was Roberts turn to get tossed around and he was thrown into one of the walls. "Ok, that hurt. Now I'm pissed!" he said with a snarl. His opponent on the other hand didn't say a thing and just charged at him like a Rhino.

Robert leapt out of the way and landed behind his opponent who soon picked up a metal baseball bat and swung at the Lone Wolf once they got close enough. Dodging the attack, Robert whipped out one of his sabers and sliced the bat in half before sending a series of fast hard-hitting punches directly towards the brute. Each punch he sent towards the big guy was a devastating hit, knocking the wind out of this criminal and keeping them focused on him while Police officers rounded up the knocked-out thugs before they came too.

A final hit from Roberts fist severely hurt the thug's ribcage before he hefted the thug into the air and threw them into one of the teller windows, shattering the glass and groaning in pain. "I hate these guys!" Robert said before he turned to one of the goons that was still awake.

(End song)

"You come in here again. In fact, if you ever do anything like this in this city praying on innocent people, I will find you and cut off both of your arms, and then both of your legs and I will cut your head right off your body. Do you understand?" Robert asked threateningly as he lifted the thug into the air.

"Y-yes…" the thug whimpered.

"Good. Cause if you don't, you'll be this armless, legless, headless thing, won't you? Rolling down the street, like a turd, in the wind. Do you feel me?" Robert asked again, bringing the thug closer to his face. The thug soon pissed himself out of fear before he was knocked out like the rest of his friends.

He dropped the knocked-out thug before he turned back to the hostages. "Thank you, thank you!" one of the hostages said gratefully. "If you need anything, let me know." He added. Robert thought for a moment and finally gave the man his answer. A couple of minutes later, he had all the DVDS of the first six Thomas and Friends seasons for the kids at the Post Office to watch, plus something he could show his kids when he and Ahsoka finally had a chance to relax after all the fighting they had done over the last few years.

When he returned to the Post Office, he was greeted by the children who were playing with Boomer and several other dogs. "Thomas and Friends has arrived kids!" he said handing the bag of DVD's to one of the post office staff who left to go play one of the DVDS for the kids, while the Lone Wolf went to spend a little time with his kids.

He didn't get very far before he found a few soldiers interrogating one of the LMB defectors. "This bastard wants mercy!" one soldier said.

"You don't deserve mercy!" another soldier said, slapping the soldier.

"What mercy did you show the world!" the third said, kicking the defector.

"Stop it! Please! Do not kill me! I never followed the orders we were given when it came to executing civilians! I only joined so I could provide for my mother, she's sick and that bastard of a president wasn't going to give her the healthcare she needed!" the defector shouted, begging for his life.

"Quit your begging, time to die!" the fourth soldier said, raising their M4 at the soldier.

"Wait, wait! He can help us!" a nearby clone trooper said, trying to stop this war-crime.

"Help us? He can die for us!" the soldier said and prepared to fire, but before they could fire, the rifle was pulled away from the soldier by Rahm Kota who was looking very pissed.

"That's enough! We need to be better than the enemy. What you are doing is exactly what the Separatists and Sith do to prisoners! Is this the kind of thing you want to be remembered for!?" Kota asked. The soldiers looked at each other while the clone took the defector to the medical center for treatment.

"That wasn't war! It was murder! Stone and his men already proved that they are willing to fight with us for what they believe in. Either you trust him and his men, or you guys can leave!" Robert added, having witnessed the whole thing.

The soldiers continued to look at each other before they just left the room. "That is not how you win a war! Payback is one thing, but taking it out on prisoners and those who have defected is going too far." He said.

"Rules of Engagement I take it?" Kota asked. Robert nodded while the two of them made their way to the room where Roberts children were with Shaak Ti holding her grandchildren. "I still find it hard to believe that Master Ti is Ahsoka's mother. I always knew there was something similar about the two of them, but I didn't think it was like this." Kota said with a chuckle.

"The universe is full of surprises." Robert chuckled as well, pulling out a small stuffed teddy bear, placing it by the cribs they slept in. "Buts it the nice surprises that are the good ones." He added before taking his son from Shaak Ti and held him tight. When he first laid eyes on his children, he sensed that they had a strong connection to the force. Normally, this would warrant the Jedi to take the children in so they could be trained, but with changes in the Jedi code it was decided that the children should stay with their parents for the time being.

"I don't think I ever saw a Togruta Human hybrid before. Then again, hybrids normally don't usually last as long as other new born children. I just want them to live a happy life, free to make their own choices and not have to live in a galaxy plagued by fear." He said as his son gripped his finger tightly.

"The boy has a good grip, but what are you going to name him?" Shaak Ti asked.

Robert thought for a moment before looking back to his son. "I think the name Orion would work for him. I can sense that he has the heart of a warrior, plus it's like I am the father of Optimus Prime, since he was known as Orion Pax before he became a prime. As for the girl, I'm thinking about Ariel. Maybe Ahsoka has another idea, but I do like both names." He said.

"I think those are nice names. Both of them have potential to be great individuals and with you and Ahsoka as their parents, they may be something more." Shaak Ti said with a smile. Robert smiled as well, before putting his son back down and heading out with Master Kota to meet up with the others in the war room.

When they arrived, all of the Jedi generals and their second in command were looking at a display of United Nations building. "With our combined forces, we would be able to move into the enemy headquarters and secure the building. However, it would also give Sidious, Tarkin and the Separatist leaders the chance to escape. If they leave the planet, we'll have to find them all over again." Obi-Wan said.

"Let's not forget that they have also fortified a few blocks with their remaining troops and armor. Their air-forces and artillery may be severally depleted, but that doesn't mean they won't be a problem. And then there's this." Anakin began before looking towards the front entrance of the UN. "These turrets are the biggest threat to our forces. Unless we take them out, the soldiers are going to get killed." He added.

"Only way we can do that is by getting inside the enemy perimeter and that's easier said then done." Robert said in agreement before an idea came to him. "That's crazy. So crazy it might just work." He said aloud.

"I know I am going to regret this, but what is this crazy idea you have in mind?" Anakin asked reluctantly.

"Velvet, remember that level in War for Cybertron, the one with Optimus, Sideswipe and Bumblebee allow themselves to be captured by the Decepticons in order to rescue Zeta Prime?" Robert asked the older sister of Laphicet.

"Oh, I remember that level. Laphi beat it easily on hard." Velvet answered before she realized what Robert was getting at. "Wait you're not suggesting…" She began before Robert looked to her and smiled.

"Yep. I think I'll take a page from Optimus's book and let myself be captured. By letting myself be captured, I can take out the turrets, plus if it will give me a chance to rescue Ahsoka." Robert admitted.

"I don't know about this. You show up completely unarmed and try to surrender, the enemy might just out right try and kill you without even a second thought." Barney said, voicing his concern against the plan.

"Well it's a good thing I'm not going alone. If we're going to pull this off, we'll need a few of you pulling the old wolf in sheep's clothing maneuver. A couple of guys in LMB or Black Tusk uniforms with the right equipment and they can pose as the enemy, escort me into the enemy camp and let me wreck some havoc behind enemy lines. The only downside is that I can't bring my armor, the BFG, Smart Gun, Morita, Punisher or Pulse Rifle. It's a risk I'm more than willing to take if I can get Ahsoka out of enemy custody." Robert responded to his uncle.

"So that means you'll be completely unarmed if you plan to carry out this plan." Kasumi said with a worried look.

"Then I guess that'll mean I'll need to help myself to the enemies' weapons. Plus, I'm sure someone can smuggle in my sabers and handguns, minus the Punisher of course." Robert answered. He then handed his two handguns over to Barney along with his sabers. "I know what I am doing." He added before Breach could voice his concern as well.

"Now for the next part. There's a service tunnel that leads into the basement of the UN. A platoon could sneak inside and capture the separatist leaders. While I go after Ahsoka, the platoon can capture Gunray and the others. The stealth team can also sabotage as much of the enemy helicopters and artillery as possible." He added.

The other jedi and their commanders looked to each other with concern but it was Cham who spoke up first. "If you are willing to take this risk, then I will support your decision." The Twi'lek said. Everyone else agreed.

A little while later, Barney, Lee, Gunner, Velvet, Kasumi and Caesar disguised as LMB and Black Tusk soldiers escorted a captured and bruised Robert into the UN building basement, their story saying that they got lucky and captured the Lone Wolf who was taking a leak. The enemy bought it and through his commlink in his ear, Barney confirmed that phase one was complete. Cassie confirmed that she, Lincoln, Ray, Billy, Toll Road, Doc, Max, Faye, Breach, Honoka, Marie, Hitomi and Rally had entered the sewers, heading for the maintance entrance to UNs lower levels. Robert spat out some blood from his mouth while the binders around his arms kept him from even trying to escape. "You know, when I told you to make it look believable, I didn't mean for you give me a black eye." Robert whispered to Velvet.

"Shut up!" Velvet said angrily, shoving her friend with the barrel of her MP5 slightly as they walked with their 'prisoner' to the main entrance where Tarkin was waiting for them.

"So, we meet again boy." Tarkin said, walking over to Robert. "Last time we met; I took the girl you love from you. Now, here you are. Oh, don't worry. You'll see your lover again, just not in the way you expect it. Take him away." The former Republic Admiral said to the droids who were with him. Robert just glared at Tarkin as the droids escorted him to his new 'quarters'. "I'll make sure that all six of you are rewarded for your capture of the Lone Wolf. As you were." Tarkin said to the disguised soldiers before following the droids.

"Phase one complete." Barney said as Gunner handed them each a small amount of C4 too each of them. "Place these on your targets when no one is looking and make sure it's hidden from sight. He then turned to Velvet and Kasumi. "Velvet, follow Tarkin and make sure the kid isn't killed. Kasumi, find Ahsoka." He added, handing Velvet Roberts sabers and handguns while Kasumi nodded and went looking for Ahsoka. Both of them had some C4 to use when they felt the need.

While each of them went their separate ways, Robert was brought to the buildings basement where he was put in a stasis field much like he was during his time on Ryloth. Tarkin walked towards him and motioned for a Magna Guard to jab him with their electrostaff. "I'm going to enjoy this." Tarkin said as the electricity from the staff surged through Roberts body.

Roberts point of view

One hour later

For the entire time I was suspended in the field, Tarkin kept asking me of what the New Republic had planned for attacking the UN. Every time I didn't answer, I got jabbed in the stomach by the staff each time more painful than the last. I should have worn some kind of armor underneath my sleeveless sweatshirt. Then again, that would have been a dead giveaway.

Instead of my usual armor, I was wearing a white sleeveless Punisher Skull sweatshirt, forest green camo pants, pair of socks, sneakers and a pair of black fingerless work out gloves. "Seems you got cocky in trying to attack us all on your own with out your weapons and armor. Trying to be a normal soldier from a back-water planet? How pathetic." Tarkin mocked me before he motioned for the droids to shutdown the stasis field. Velvet was right behind him, watching with anger.

I fell to the floor with a thud and faked like I was out cold. Tarkin bought it and left the basement leaving only me, Velvet and two battle droids. No sooner had the bastard left, Velvet quickly took out the droids before they knew what hit them. "I really wanted to waste that bastard. But if I had done that, I would have alerted them to our little plan." Velvet admitted, unlocking my binders and helping me up.

"You're not the only one who wants to plug that bastard. Especially after all he's done. I can't believe he did that to Ahsoka. I'll castrate that 'man'." I admitted. I then followed Velvet outside the basement to one of the storage rooms where the forces guarding the building kept their weapons, armor and ammo. "Time to even the odds." I said to myself.

(Rambo gear up theme starts)

Aside from my handguns, knife and lightsabers, I grabbed a Black Tusk ACR as well as a Spas 12. I grabbed several scopes, magazine attachments and laser sights which I attached onto my weapons. A red dot sight, laser pointer and an extended magazine capacity of eight shells were added to my shotgun. As for the ACR, I equipped it with a holographic sight, laser sight and a fifty-round magazine. I also attached an M203 to the rifle while Velvet handed me a red bandana which I knew was Laphi's favorite after I put on an LMB cross draw holster tactical vest.

Tying the bandana around my head, I grabbed as much ammo as I could carry while Velvet placed her C4 charges on the weapon stockpile, setting the timer for thirty seconds before she grabbed a Steyr AUG A3 9mm submachine gun, equipped with a forty-round magazine, red dot sight and laser pointer.

Once we had what we needed, we quickly vacated the armory just a few seconds before it exploded. "Let's kick some ass." I said.

(End theme)

The blast shook the entire building causing every hostile in the building to be on alert for me. Velvet and the others still had their cover, but that wouldn't last for long. Knowing Tarkin, he probably suspected that the 'friendly's' that captured me weren't who they said they were. Guy was smart, but not that smart.

"The second they spot us; they'll know that it was a setup." Velvet reminded me, from the women's restroom having said that she needed to change out of the enemy combat fatigues and into her Ghost Recon armor.

"They're probably already aware of our presence. With a guy like Sidious in charge, he would have sensed our presence the moment we stepped foot onto the UN building grounds. The force is a sixth sense to those connected too it." I said to her, waiting outside the bathroom like a gentleman and too avoid being called a pervert by my friend, keeping my eyes open for any hostiles that might be looking for the cause of the explosion.

Velvet soon came out a few minutes later all dressed in her Ghost Recon getup, including the bandana wrapped around her face. "Come on, lets go get your girl." She said, gripping her own ACR tightly.

"Yes ma'am." I said jokingly, only for her to give me the 'evil eye'. I would have countered her glare, but we ran into a few battle droids coming down to find the source of the explosion.

"Hey! You're not one of us!" one of the droids said before Velvet and I gunned them down with our assault rifles. The droids may have been destroyed, but the alarm started ringing all around us.

"Shit!" I heard Velvet curse before she pulled out her commlink. "Velvet to Barney! We've been discovered. Tell me you planted those charges on your targets!" she said urgently into the commlink.

"Yeah we did and we're now taking fire in the general assembly room from all sides. Cassie and the others are coming through the service tunnels now, but they've run into some trouble. Mainly a lot of hostiles, we haven't been able to reach Kasumi but from last we heard she said she found Ahsoka." Barney said frantically over the commlink before his voice was followed by noise of an AK-M. "If you guys can give us some help, we'd really appreciate it!" he added.

"We're on our way. Blow the charges and that will signal the Republic to start their assault." Velvet shouted back over the commlink before pocketing her device. "We need to move now!" she added. I nodded and we raced out of the basement as fast as we could. We did encounter more droids after we made it up a set of stairs, but they were nothing to our combined firepower. Both of us downed the droids in seconds before we kept moving forwards.

Velvet kicked open a locked door which got us to the ground floor of the UN building. However, we weren't even close to the general assembly hall and soon found ourselves taking fire from numerous enemy soldiers.

No sooner had they spotted us, they quickly opened fire on us forcing us to take cover. "Great! That's all we needed." I said, spotting a crate of grenades nearby. Using the force, I pulled the crate towards us and opened the grate grabbing a couple of frags. Velvet did the same thing and we both pulled the pin on one of our grenades and threw them towards our attackers.

(Take the Wave, starts)

The grenades exploded taking out several hostiles upon exploding which caused several them to scatter and take cover. "Thanks for leaving us some grenades fella's!" I shouted, popping out of cover and fired my ACR, taking out a few LMB grunts with deadly accuracy. Velvet followed suit firing her own ACR which was of the chambered to the 6.8mm, taking out a few droids with several bursts of her own. "Move up?" she asked me, ducking down before tossing another grenade.

"What do you think?" I shot back as her grenade exploded and sent a blown-up droid right behind us. "MOVE UP!" The two of us bolted out of cover and moved up taking out any enemies that got in our way while the others started to retreat to better positions at the top of the escalator. This position gave their snipers a better line of fire at us forcing us again to take cover, this time behind a few barricades they had set up. Good thing we did, cause several hostiles with machine guns and repeating blasters soon started to rain down on us.

"Damn it. I really should have taken that M60 before we torched the armory!" I cursed, peaking out slightly from behind cover before I nearly got my head blown off. "Got any ideas on how to get past these bastards!?" I asked Velvet.

Before she could answer, gunfire from behind us took out a few enemies. Looking behind us, I was shocked to see that Captain Price, Roach, Ghost and Soap were lending some support, backed up by Foley, Dunn, Ramirez, Griggs, Vasquez, Jackson, Connor Morgan and Robert Jacobs. "Captain Price! You're a sight for sore eyes! Same goes for the rest of you as well!" I shouted.

"You can thank your aunt for that, kid! She had us accompany her team knowing that you were going to need some help!" Connor explained, firing his M4 and hitting one of the droid snipers while Jacobs fired back with his M249, this time getting the enemy to take cover from machine gun fire. "Like she had to ask us anyway! We're planning on helping you storm the fucking building!" Connor added, throwing one of his grenades up the escalator, which didn't make it as far as he wanted it to go.

Price however had another plan. "You two. Take these and throw them on my mark!" he shouted too us and threw me and Velvet a pair of smoke grenades. "HK-47, are you in position!?" he shouted into the commlink, firing back with his M4.

"Answer: Affirmative Captain!" the assassin droid said over the commlink. I didn't know why HK-47 was here, but I would find out later.

"SMOKE OUT!" Price shouted and tossed a smoke grenade. The others followed suit and thick cloud of white smoke blanketed the escalator. "MOVE UP!" he shouted and began to move forwards. Velvet and I followed suit and we pushed forwards up the escalator, wiping out the enemy forces at the top of the escalator. "Barney and the lads aren't going to last much longer. We need to move light and fast! Don't get pinned down!" the TF 141 captain stated. I nodded my head and followed his lead after HK-47 soon joined us.

We swept through the offices and were making good progress but soon ran into a snag in one of the galleries of the building, which the enemy had turned into a prison cell. Dozens of captured police officers, national guardsmen and soldiers who were captured during the invasion were dead, all executed with shots to the head. "Bastards!" I cursed. I then sensed a few LMB and Black Tusk soldiers arrive behind us and watched as HK gunned them down with his MG5.

"Annoyed Statement: Master, get your head out of the gutter! You can't die yet!" HK-47 said. I looked up and quickly returned to reality. Soon enough, we reached Barney and the others who were still pinned down by the doors to the assembly hall.

"Bout time you showed up!" he shouted, firing back at the enemy soldiers with his M4's M203. The grenade blew up a few droids just as a blast from a concussion rifle rippled a few feet ahead of us. "Damn Lizards are using the second floor as a sniper position. We haven't been able to move up since you blew up the armory in the basement." My uncle explained.

"I can see that!" I stated in an annoyed tone as Lee fired off a few shots from his SCAR-H while Gunner and Caesar fired off several rounds at the same Trandoshan. Gunners shot missed the shooter and Caesar's shotgun lacked the range to hit them. Thankfully, Rally, Hitomi and Marie were able to take out one of the concussion rifle wielding enemies with their rifles, allowing Cassie, Lincoln, Billy, Ray and Faye to move up to another set of seats before taking cover.

Breach, Max, Toll Road, Doc and HK-47 followed suit after Price and the boys that followed us started to unload a few rounds on another enemy sniper. "MOVE UP!" the TF141 captain shouted too the rest of us who moved from cover to cover. "Soap! Take Roach, Morgan, Jacobs and Ghost. Take out those snipers, we're not going to last much longer unless we knock them out. Maybe grab a few of those concussion rifles while you're at it!" he added, turning back to the others while reloading his M4.

"COVERING FIRE!" I shouted, upon hearing those words. Immediately everyone one of us ahead of them opened up with our weapons. Griggs, HK-47 and Lincoln sprayed the enemy with machine gun fire while Gunner and Maire fired their grenade launchers at a couple of super battle droids. Caesar unleashed a barrage of shotgun rounds from his AA12 before Ray, Billy and Cassie lobbed a few frags at a couple of LMB rifleman.

Jackson, Dunn, Vasquez, Foley and Price downed a few battle droids with rifle fire while Ramirez, Velvet, Breach and I took out several other hostiles that attempted to flank us from behind. One of the enemy snipers fell from the second floor. Looking up, we saw that Connor was the one who tossed the body over the side and had an M249 in his hands. "This shit just keeps getting better and better!" he shouted, firing his newly acquired machine gun at the enemies that were trying to attack us from the rear. Jacobs followed suit with M110, nailing hostile after hostile with a single headshot while Soap, Roach and Ghost opened up with their own assault rifles.

Barney, Toll Road, Doc, Faye and Lee quickly reloaded their rifles before they resumed firing back at the enemy, wiping out a combined total of five droid squads.

"Retreat!" one of the Black Tusk soldiers shouted from behind. Their allies followed suit, some of them being killed in the process by a vengeful Connor, who I was told saw a lot of people killed with out a second thought.

"Cease fire!" I shouted and the rest followed suit.

(End song)

Once the last round clattered too the ground, the assembly hall was riddled with spent bullet casings, numerous bullet holes, blaster marks and the bodies of dead enemy soldiers and wrecked droids. None of us were killed, but Breach took a blaster bolt to the shoulder. It wasn't a fatal wound, but Doc told me that he wouldn't be holding a rifle or shotgun for a while. Honoka showed us something she had found in the hall. Turns out, that Bliss and Schaeffer were funneling weapons and equipment to terrorist groups and warlords across the world for the past four years, many of those weapons were distributed by Stonebanks and were meant to be given to the military. It certainly explained why the Inner Circle was able to build a few of the bombs that Hitomi and the Russian operators of Rainbow got rid of.

"Kasumi should have reported in by now." Rally said with concern. She wasn't the only one who was getting the same feeling. I wanted to think this was like that stunt she pulled on Canto Bight, but I knew it wasn't. I felt a great disturbance in the force.

"Doc, patch Breach up as best you can and gather every bit of intel you can find here. We'll need the evidence to bring up these two groups on war crime charges. Everyone else, spread out across the building and search for the Seppie leaders. You find them, take them alive. Just leave Tambor to me, I've got a score to settle with green skinned bastard." I said. The others nodded and were quick to depart for the other floors.

Everyone that is except for Price, Velvet, Soap, Roach, Ghost and Rally. They all decided to stay with me. "Well, guess I have more company then I wanted. Ahsoka's on the 29th floor. Its obvious they locked down the elevators, so we better get climbing." I said and followed the others up the stairs before they went to search the other floors for the enemy leaders. Little did I know, I was going to be in for quite a revelation when I reached the top.

Normal point of view

Meanwhile, on the fifteenth floor of the building, the separatist leaders were starting to become afraid that they would be arrested, losing all the power and wealth they accumulated over the course of the war. "None of this would have happened if you had killed the Lone Wolf when he arrived on Ryloth!" Gunray spat to Tambor.

"How could I have known that the boy would become a threat to the Separatist Alliance? Need I remind you Viceroy that your Senator in the Senate has been arrested not once, but twice and this time he is now in prison for good!" Tambor countered. None of them knew that outside the room they were using as a safe room, Barney, Honoka, Marie and Hitomi were listening in on their entire conversation and were readying a few flashbangs. Poggle than spoke in his native tongue with his protocol droid translating.

"Lord Poggle says that no one could have seen how powerful the Lone Wolf would become when he arrived. He also states that Count Dooku is the one too truly blame for allowing his connection to the boy to become strong. Had Dooku killed the boy, none of this would be happening." The protocol droid translated.

"Do we get a say in this?" one of battle droid guards asked. The Separatist leaders all shouted no and the droid just sighed. "I had a feeling that was the answer." The droid said in defeat. It was then that the door to the room opened briefly and four grenades were tossed inside. "IS THAT A GRENADE!?" the droid asked before it detonated, blinding the Separatist leaders.

"GO, GO, GO!" Barney shouted to the three girls who followed his lead and gunned down each of the droid guards, leaving the separatist leaders unharmed. "Put your hands up!" Barney demanded to the Separatist leaders. Everyone of the leaders did so, with the exception of Tambor who tried to reach for the personal blaster he had hidden on him. He didn't get the chance, for Honoka spotted this and rushed towards him.

She then disarmed the Skakoan before headbutting him right in the face. "THAT'S FOR ALL THE FAMILIES YOU'VE KILLED!" She roared, hitting the Techno Union Foreman in several places all over his body. Through out the entire beatdown, Tambor begged for his life while the other Separatist leaders looked in fear as the Salmon haired girl in armor delivered one final punch to the Skakoan leaders face, knocking him out. "I'm good now." She said after giving Tambor a few smacks.

"Barney to all points, we got the Separatist leaders. Uh, be advised, Tambor might need medic, Honoka really did a number on him." Barney said into his commlink, still shocked by the scene he had seen. Obi-Wan than responded over the commlink that they would dispatch a medic as soon as friendly troopers could enter building. Barney understood and then began to place binders on each of the separatist leaders' hands. "Now then, why don't we chat?" Barney said to the captured enemy leaders.

The other teams reported that they had found numerous documents and files further convicting the enemy leaders of war crimes and the locations of said crimes. This would also prove to be useful in the trials to come after the war ended, but there was still no sign of Tarkin or Sidious.

While the others swept the other floors, the droids and PMC forces on the 29th floor had setup numerous makeshift barricades for the ensuring firefight. About three-fourths of the floor left intact while the remaining section of the floor were removed and turned into a prison cell, a prison cell that held Ahsoka.

A squad of Black Tusk soldiers kept their rifles trained at the stairway entrance while LMB machine gunners and battle droids finished loading their weapons. No sooner had the soldiers finished checking their weapons, a figure behind the glass window of the door could be seen and the enemy forces opened fire. Rifles, machine guns, blaster rifles and other weapons roared to life with each of their shots hitting the door, some of them breaking the glass and blowing the door too pieces. A few enemy grenades were thrown to the door which exploded. Finally, the enemy stopped firing but much to the surprise of the enemy soldiers, not a single body was found.

Some of them thought the person fell over the stair well while others thought they had retreated down to a lower level. In both cases, they were proven wrong as a bright blue blade started to cut the ceiling above them a few doors down. The blade cut a perfect circle in the ceiling before it was retracted and the cut roof slab fell to the ground, some enemy soldiers scrambling out of the way before they were crushed, the same couldn't be said for a few battle droids that ended up being crushed instead of them.

The enemy soldiers looked up to the hole only too see a few flashbangs and droid poppers tossed through the hole which detonated. The droids nearest to the hole in the ceiling were disabled while the PMC soldiers were dazed from the non-lethal grenades. "FAIRY TAIL HAS COME CALLING!" Robert shouted, leaping through the hole and firing his twin handguns at those who were still dazed. "I've always wanted to say that!" he said as the others dropped down from the hole.

(Strike Back starts)

"You watch way too much anime." Velvet said, rolling her eyes and firing her submachine gun at a few LMB soldiers, killing them. She then charged towards one of the enemy machine gunners and kneed them in the gut before giving a powerful uppercut to the face.

"Hey! You're the one who said I do a good Makarov voice. And I'm not talking about the terrorist." Robert replied, holstering his handguns before firing his SPAS-12 at a few hostiles that got too close. An LMB soldier fell to the ground dead while a Black Tusk rifleman took a shot to the leg before being taken down by a shot from Ghosts ACR.

"Focus on the mission! We need to push forwards! Your girl's up ahead, so let's get her out of here and then go after Sidious and the rest of these bastards!" the SAS Lieutenant shouted as he lobbed a grenade towards several enemies which exploded spewing deadly grenade fragments into the bodies of several unlucky enemy soldiers. Roach followed suit, but threw a thermal detonator which was caught by one of the droids who soon became nothing but a pile of scrap metal.

"Are these droids really that stupid they would pick up a live grenade?" Roach asked, firing back with his G36C, taking out a few more droids in the process.

"B1's aren't the brightest battle droid the separatists have in the shed. Their only strength is that they can overwhelm their enemies with sheer numbers, some have even been used as cannon fodder to clear out minefields!" Rally answered, firing her two CZ-75's and taking out several droids. "If you look at it, there kind of like the Strike Daggers, cheap and easy to produce." She added, emptying her pistols clips before ducking behind a desk and avoid getting her head shot off.

"You kids and your anime's! Whatever happened to the days of comics and movies!?" Price asked jokingly, loading a fresh magazine into his M4 before quickly returning fire.

"Times have changed Captain! But you can't beat the classics!" Robert answered back, running forwards with his shotgun raised and ready to fire. One pull of the trigger sent several pellets into the body of an unarmored LMB soldier while their buddy took the shotguns butt to the face. A punch to the enemies face soon followed, knocking them out before Robert continued forwards firing his shotgun at anyone who he choose to target. "COME ON!" he shouted to the others behind him. He then yanked the barrel of an enemy blaster and started to use the droid as a shield. The other droids couldn't fire at their own and were taken down while the PMC soldiers fired back.

The members of TF141 were surprised to see the Lone Wolf do such a feat without his armor while Velvet and Rally just followed their friend, taking out the enemies he missed. "You heard him lads! Let's go!" Soap shouted, firing his SCAR-L's M203 launcher just ahead of Roberts position, killing several enemies with a single shot. "Can't let the kid have all the fun!" he added following after the three teens.

His droid shield reduced to a wreck, Robert threw the droid into several incoming enemy soldiers, knocking them back before his shotgun was blasted out of his hands by a Super Battle Droid. "Oh, you really shouldn't have done that!" Robert said in a sort of menacing tone.

"Uh-oh!" the droid said before Robert pounced on the droid, pulling out his custom handgun and emptied a full magazine into droids' body. The pistol rounds did little damage to the droid, but thankfully the droid was eliminated by a burst of rifle fire from Velvets ACR.

"Never wreck a shotgun. Especially the SPAS-12!" Robert said with passion. He then reached out with the force and sent a blast wave towards the enemy, knocking them out or into pieces depending on who they were. "Ahsoka is up ahead! Right through those doors." He added.

"Stack up!" Price instructed the group. They did so and the captain tossed a flashbang through the door which detonated. He then ordered them to move in where they mopped up the remaining hostiles. The last hostile fell to the ground and Robert spotted Ahsoka.

(End Song)

Again, Ahsoka was held in a stasis field but this time she was bound by a set of binders which kept her arms pinned behind her back. Behind her and holding her tightly was Tarkin, holding a handgun of his own a Desert Eagle which he then fired. "I would throw down your weapons if I were you. That is if you want to see the death of one of your girls?" Tarkin said. Before anyone could ask why, several battle droids appeared behind him, hold Kasumi in their grips. "Your friend fooled everyone else, but I saw through her disguise easily." The traitor gloated.

"You may have saw through her disguise, but Kasumi is more than capable of getting out of these situations on her own." Robert retorted. The next thing Tarkin knew, he heard the sound of two droids being bashed together and Kasumi leaping over him, landing by her girlfriend. "Told you!"

"YOU BITCH!" Tarkin roared, pushing Ahsoka down to the ground and raising his pistol. Before he could fire, the handgun was knocked out of his hand by a well-placed shot from Rally's pistol.

"Looks like you've been disarmed!" Rally joked as Robert returned his own handguns to his holsters and dropped his rifle.

"Not really." Tarkin stated and simply walked forwards towards the group. "You want to kill me like a man or a like a Sheep?" Tarkin asked the Lone Wolf.

"I just want to kill you for all that you've done to Ahsoka." Robert answered, walking towards Tarkin much like the traitor did earlier. "I know what you did, I've felt it every time. You tortured her, assaulted her and raped her. You disgust me." Robert spat.

"I find that those who aren't human are meant to serve their lords and masters. Togruta's, for instance have such a…" he began before Robert surged forwards and sucker punched him in the gut.

"You want to man up, I'll man you up!" Robert said, cracking his knuckles after throwing his lightsabers aside.

"You must want to hurt me badly." Tarkin asked, practically announcing his intentions of goading Robert into recklessly making the first move.

"I'm not going to hurt you; I'm going to take your life!" Robert declared. He then waited for Tarkin to charge at him and grabbed the man by the waist and slammed him into the ground.

(My Demons starts)

Using his years of training against the republic traitor, Robert brought his opponent up and rammed them into several lockers before landing a series of rapid punches to the man's gut. His punches ended and he threw Tarkin down to the ground on his back, brought him back to his feet and would have attacked again, but Tarkin headbutted him, causing the young warrior to lose his grip on the enemy who then kicked him in the face.

"All those weapons, armor and training. All those victories and this is what you have to show for it? It appears you are just as weak as your whore of a mother. Oh, I know all about her and who she is. In fact, I think I will personally thank the man who snuffed her out when I am done with you." Tarkin gloated, pulling Robert up by the collar of his shirt and punched the Lone Wolf several times in the gut before throwing him into the bars of one of the nearby cells.

Robert said nothing and the two soon began to trade punches and kicks with each other. "Unlike you, I had proper military training compared to you being trained by several money-grubbing mercenaries you call family. Real combat is all about using every opportunity to kill your enemy and show them that you are more powerful then they are. But you, you're nothing without your armor." Tarkin spat.

"SHUT UP!" Robert shouted and punched Tarkin square in the jaw, causing the former Republic to spit a bit of blood out of his mouth. "Taste's good doesn't it?" Robert spat.

"You talking too me, child?" Tarkin mocked, grabbing a nearby by chain after giving Robert a left hook to the jaw. He then wrapped the chain around Roberts neck and began to choke him to death. "Time to cut off the wound. Oh, when I'm done with you. I'll take care of your friends, family and the girl you love. You'll have failed them all and your children will also join the Jedi in death." He said with a snarl.

Tarkin then turned Robert around and kicked him away, the chain still wrapped around his neck into another cell, the impact causing Roberts knife to drop out of its sheath to the ground. "Its funny, the last time we met I left you too die. This time, I'll finish the job personally. Like I should have done on Canto Bight. It's a shame that you lose everyone you care about. Your adoptive family, young Crowe, your mother and your squad mates. You really have to ask, 'is it me? Or is it them'?" Tarkin mocked again, picking up Roberts knife. "What was your friends name again, what did you call her? Oh well it doesn't matter. Your about to join her."

It was at this point; Roberts inner animal awoke. The mention of Courtney dying and the thoughts of her dying by his side flooded his mind and once again, he bared his fangs. Grabbing the chain that would have taken his life, Robert draped it over his neck. "Come on you bastard! One of us is going to die. So, let's get it over with!" Robert goaded before he swung the chain around several times, hitting Tarkin in the face, causing him to bleed before he kicked them into the wall and too drop his knife.

He dropped the chain and reached for his knife while Tarkin caught his breath. "Get up Tarkin! Get. Up." He said with anger as his enemy slowly got back to his feet. "Now turn around you sack of shit!" he demanded, picking up the chain he used earlier as Tarkin walked a few feet towards him.

"Now what!?" Tarkin demanded. The next thing he knew, the chain was wrapped around his neck.

"GET OVER HERE!" Robert roared and pulled the chain and Tarkin towards him plunging his knife into Tarkin's gut. His opponent looked to the Lone Wolf before the knife was twisted and pierced his skin. "Her name was Courtney!" Robert said before pulling the knife out of his enemy, whose body fell to the ground.

(End song)

"Damn it kid! You really kicked ass!" Soap said impressively.

"Yeah, well he shouldn't have pushed me." Robert answered before he looked to Ahsoka who's binders had been removed by Anakin who arrived earlier during the brawl and who was wearing some Jedi armor Kasumi had smuggled with her. "You ok?" he asked.

"Yeah, thanks to you." Ahsoka answered, pulling her future husband in for a kiss. "I knew you'd come for me." She said, tears flowing from her eyes.

"That's one down and one to go. All that's left is Sidious and his transport on the roof is destroyed. Now all we have too do is bring him in. How about it Ahsoka, you up for some payback?" Anakin asked his former padawan, handing over her lightsaber to her.

"You know it. Let's kick that bastard's ass!" she said determined.

"Now that's what I like to here. Captain Price, secure the rest of the floors and then join us at the top of the building. We need to cut Sidious off incase he has a back up plan." Robert instructed. Price nodded and took the others to secure the building.

Kasumi ditched her LMB disguise and changed into full black and blue bodysuit with black arm guards. "I may not be a Jedi, but you're going to need some help. After all, I know my way around a blade." She said.

"Ok then, lets end this war for good." Robert said and rushed to the stairwell. It seemed like they were climbing forever but at long last they reached the top of the building and came face to face with Sidious, who was standing by his wrecked personal shuttle.

"Welcome, my young friends. Welcome to your doom." He said evilly.

And with that Tarkin is dead. One more fight to go, but it will certainly be one to remember. I'll tell you this much, there is going to be a lot of anger unleashed next chapter during the final battle.

Now, I have been considering a voice cast for all of the OC's I have brought into the story. I would like to here your thoughts on who should voice who in this story, if it were like the Clone Wars series, which I have to say is awesome, despite not seeing the nose art of Padme on the Marauder, but I have to say I am loving it.

Again, give me your ideas for the people who you'd want to voice each of the OC's I have brought in, please read and review and I will see you all again with the second too last chapter.
