(P.S just for convenience, I'm going to start using Maul and Savage's names so you don't get confused who's fighting who)
Immediately, the bounty hunters began shooting at the three intruders. The two Zabraks turned on red lightsabers and began deflecting shots while Vizsla began shooting back. Marrok ran at the Zabrak leader, Maul, attempting to attack him, but Maul used the force to throw Marrok back into Embo, knocking him backwards off the table. Embo quickly climbed back up.
The Nikto and his guards must have heard what was going on, because they came in and began shooting at the intruders, taking the attention away from the bounty hunters for a moment. The yellow Zabrak, Savage Opress, angrily chopped through the Nikto guard and threw him at Dengar, also knocking him off the table. Sugi glared at the intruders, a small growl escaping her mouth.
Maul was also fighting some of the guards. He chopped one down easily, then he began to force choke another. Instead of just dropping him though, he threw the body at Latts, who lost her balance, and fell onto the table. So maybe this wasn't going to be as easy as they had thought.
Pre Vizsla shot two guards before using his jetpack to get to the center of the semi-circle. He activated his flamethrower, sweeping it across the bounty hunters jumped down before the flames reached them, though. The Zabraks, thinking that the bound hunters were defeated, ran out the door the way they came in, and Pre Vizsla used his jetpack to follow.
"Kill them!" Jabba ordered the bounty hunters.
They ran through the halls not far behind the intruders. It seemed like they were trying to get to the landing pad to escape. On their way, they saw bodies with singed slash marks in them.
"What the heck are we doing?" Dengar asked.
"Our job." Sugi said.
"This could go down hill very fast." Latts stated.
"We'll just have to leave when we can't do any more." Embo said, mostly to his partner who he knew would want to stay until the last possible second.
They reached the landing pad shortly after the intruders had. Marrok gave a bark as they started shooting at them. The guards had them surrounded. It seemed like this was actually going to be shorter than they thought.
Suddenly, there was an explosion where three guards had just been. They saw some more Death Watch troops who were hovering with their jet packs.
"I see negotiations have gone as planned." they heard the Lutenant, Bo-Katan, laugh.
"Secure this platform!" Pre Vizsla yelled to her.
The three Death Watch troops swooped down and fired off some more missiles at a line of guards in from of the bounty hunters. Most of the guards had gotten caught in the explosion. The bounty hunters split up, Embo with Sugi and Latts with Dengar, and used some crates as cover. Marrok had been smart and was already behind the crates.
More Death Watch troops came soaring in with jet packs. Latts holstered her blaster and used her grappling boa as one flew over her. She yanked it, causing him to fall to the ground.
"Retreat, retreat! Back inside!" Latts yelled to any of the guards who were left on the landing platform.
The four bounty hunters sprinted inside. They had a short amount of time before the intruders were back inside. Latts and Dengar went down a side hall while Sugi and Embo stayed on the main one.
"Embo, I think I have a plan." Sugi smirked.
"Yeah, what?" Embo asked, scratching Marrok's head.
"Can you get me to the ceiling?" She asked.
"OK, we'll wait down here and give them back up when they need it." Latts stated.
"That was a pretty smart move back there, calling that retreat." Dengar said.
"Uh, thanks. I just thought we'd have more cover in here." She explained, blushing slightly at the compliment.
They heard the intruders coming and the flattened themselves against the wall. The intruders ran by without seeing them.
"That was a little too close." Latts muttered.
"Hey, just in case we don't make it out," Dengar said, pulling her into a kiss. At first she was completely freaked out, but then she realized what was going on and wrapped her arms around his neck.
Sugi, from her place on the ceiling, could see what was going on. Embo has given her a boost up and now, she was using all her strength to keep herself up. Good thing the architecture on Nall Hutta was similar to the planet's rural areas, so the ceiling had vines to hold onto.
The intruders ran around the corner chasing some of the Hutts' guards. The Death Watch were pretty good warriors, she had to give them that. The three who seemed to be the leaders of their group came striding into the hall, all with weapons drawn except for Maul. The Death Watch troops used their flamethrowers on some unfortunate guards. Sugi leaned slightly down to make sure she timed this right.
Right when the three leaders were below her, she jumped down from the ceiling onto Maul, knocking him down. She then swung her blaster at Pre Vizsla's helmeted head, sending him sprawling down the hallway. Savage turned on her and swung his lightsaber at her. She quickly ducked and Embo threw his hat at him, getting him in the face and knocking him over.
Sugi stood up from her crouched position on the ground and Embo caught his hat, running to go fight Savage. She must've not knocked Maul out, because he tripped her and stood up. He took out his lightsaber and swung it at the ground where she had fallen. She rolled to the side each time he swung down again, dodging the blade by just inches. She didn't know how much longer she could keep this up. Suddenly, she saw Marrok jump over her and land on her attacker, pinning him down. In the process, Marrok caused him to drop his lightsaber.
Meanwhile, Embo was fighting Savage. Savage made to punch Embo, but he flipped over the Zabrak before he could. At first Embo had the upper hand, but it didn't last. Savage threw some punches at Embo with all his strength. Embo held up his hat to shield himself, but Savage was just too strong, sending Embo falling backwards into the wall.
Pre Vizsla stood back up, seeing an explosion and some guards near the Hutt Grand Council Hall. Pulling out his dark saber, he began cutting down guards left and right.
Sugi stood up and watched Marrok, snarling at the pinned down Maul. Maul finally got the Anooba off of him and stood up, turning to Sugi. She ran at him, attempting to punch him, but he blocked all of her attacks. He dodged her, causing her to go around behind him. He quickly turned around and grabbed her wrist, blocking yet another attack. He spun around, pulling her left arm behind her back. He then kicked her one leg, causing her to loose her balance and fall. Sugi then surprised him by doing a back flip to get up while kicking him in the face. She landed and turned back around to face him. Maul had gotten tired of playing around, though, and lifted her up into a force choke. He then threw her into the nearby wall. Marrok barked next to her as she landed, feeling like she had broken something.
Savage had, by this time, weakened Embo. He kneed the bounty hunter, who doubled over in pain. Savage then proceeded to throw him across the room into a wall near Sugi. Pre Vizsla strided over, dark saber in hand, ready to finish off the bounty hunters. Sugi and Embo both attempted to stand up. It looked like it was over for them.
"Hey, look!" Latts said, breaking up the moment. Dengar followed her finger to where she was pointing. Sugi and Embo both looked like they were about to be carved up by Pre Vizsla and the two Zabraks.
"Let's give them a hand." Dengar said, pulling out two smoke grenades. He gave the second one to Latts. They threw them down the hall, landing and emitting smoke right between their friends and the attackers.
"Come on, let's get out of here!" Latts yelled to them.
Sugi turned around looking quite grateful. She held her stomach as she attempted to run over to her friends. Embo also held his stomach as he waited for Marrok to retrieve his hat before running to the others. They decided to take a different exit than the one to the landing pad.
"That was a little too close." Sugi winced as the ran down the hall.
"Now we have to find a way off this planet." Dengar stated as they ran out the back door into the mucky swamps of Nal Hutta.
OK, sorry if that one part was really fluffy but I had to do it! I hope you all liked it! Please review!
