Chapter 34: Plan in Action
When the CorSec ships that are similar to the Grand Army of the Republic LAAT, they straight away got off and rushes in the direction where the Empire's two Providence-class Destroyers are located. They rush through the Corellian forest to the location.
Some of the members of CorSec have a hard time moving through the brush of the forest do to the fact that they some of them have less experience with field work that did not take place in any civilized area of the planet. There were some that was doing well at making headway through the brush of the forest. Either they have experiences on crimes for going over this type of terrain or they were in the Corellian Military before they join CorSec.
Lillian, Maria, Rachelle and Obi-wan are up in front. They decided that the use of Speeders or Speeder Bikes would be a bad idea due to the noise will give them away. Even with the military providing to disable the two Providence-class Destroyers, they still want to maintain a little bit of the element of surprise they still have.
They rushed up a small hill the rings around the clearing where the two Providence-class ships was station. Due to the fact that they can see the two large warships without any lights on, told them that the ships have been disabled.
As more approach the hilled ring around the clearing, they were met with blaster fire and some cannon fire that was firing plasma. Obi-wan and Rachelle who were standing close to each other have to jump different ways. Obi-wan grabs those who were closest to him, which was Lillian and one other CorSec agent, when he jumps.
Rachelle did the same and grabs Maria and a CorSec agent. Maria was firing as they fly through the air. Before they landed on the ground, the CorSec agent that Rachelle grabs a hold of was missing exactly half of her body. She must have gotten hit by the cannon plasma fire. Rachelle did remember out of her and Obi-wan she was later from taking off.
She drops the half corpse to the ground and mumbles an apology to the dead girl. The girl was younger then she was and it hurts her seeing someone that young dying. "Do not get so upset about it. Lives will be lost, but do not let her death be in vain." say Maria as she fired of a few more rounds with her blasters. A few more criminals fall down due to Maria's deadly aim.
Rachelle notice that the person Maria fired at as they were going though the air was dead to. Since Maria have a handle on things in this area, Rachelle figure she does not need her help, and that was a good thing because Rachelle sees a couple of Dark Jedi moving in on some CorSec agents to the right of her.
Using the Force to speed up her time, Rachelle kicked one of the Dark Jedi hard in the head before the CorSec agent could have been stabbed. Rachelle then uses the Force to pull the other one away and send her flying though the air. The Dark Jedi she kicked tried to stab her in the stomach, but Rachelle side step out of the way.
She is glad for her intense training underneath all her mentors she had, even through 2 of the four she did not get a long well with. She ducks from another blow and draws her Lightsaber in time to block a Force Lighting that was directed at her.
The impact of the Force Lightning almost knocks her Lightsaber out of the firm grip of her hands. The impact made her slide over the ground slightly. Rachelle notices in the corner of her eyes the Dark Jedi she thrown in the air with the Force send a couple of Force Blasts at her.
In a few seconds Rachelle did a couple back flips aided by the Force for speed and performance to avoid both the Force Lightning reaching farther for her and the blasts that came at her. The Force Blasts nails the Dark Jedi that was using Force Lightning on her. The Force Blasts made Swiss Cheese out of the Dark Jedi torso. The Dark Jedi falls down dead.
Rachelle use the Force to summon the fallen Dark Jedi Lightsaber and using the Force to keep it activates manages to slice off the Dark Jedi who send Force Blast hands off. The sliver plasma bladed Lightsaber slashes through the Dark Jedi hands as it spins around like a disk. Half of the Dark Jedi palm along with the fingers fall down to the ground.
Rachelle runs away but a Dark Twi'lek Jedi stand before her. "Well, well. Look who we have hear. The runt Jedi who manage to escape us on Kashyyyk, I remember you well; you have killed my brother in your escape. Prepare to die, you filthy inbreed Jedi slime!" snaps the Dark Twi'lek Jedi as he unleashes a powerful Force Lightning.
Rachelle uses the Force to grow the planets around her until they were taller then her and the leaves on the stems grabs the Dark Twi'lek Jedi. He just laughs as he uses the Force to burn the planet.
The Dark Twi'lek Jedi actives his Green Lightsaber and rushes forward at Rachelle. Two green plasma bladed Lightsaber meet. The Dark Twi'lek Jedi use the Force to slams a metal crack that was laying around into Rachelle. Rachelle stumbles a bit and falls to her knees as the back of her head, neck, and upper back hurt.
"Foolish little girl, seem like all that training that the so called great Jedi Master Mark Zane did for you did not help you. Maybe he is not so great or maybe you not intelligent for such a great Jedi Master to teach you." laughs the Dark Twi'lek as he spins his Lightsaber to the right as he takes a couple steps closer to Rachelle.
It wasn't his insult that made her angry; it was his insult about Mark. Without saying a thing, Rachelle uses the Force to rip out the Lightsaber from the Dark Twi'lek Jedi and stabs slashes across his chest.
Then the Lightsaber reaches for Rachelle's hand. "You never insult my Master!" snaps Rachelle swings the Lightsaber forward. Then her mentor words appear in her head. When the Lightsaber got near the Dark Twi'lek Jedi's neck she yanks it upwards almost slashing off his ear. She cannot believe she let her emotions get to her. She forgot to force her emotions down. If she strikes him down like she was going, it would have tainted her soul. She was close to using the Dark Side.
One thing her mentor always told her was to never let your emotion get to you. You can fight if you hates that person but do not let that hatred fuel you. "Pathetic Jedi, you should have killed me when you had the chance." say the Dark Twi'lek as he draws a second sword. Through the Force Rachelle sense he is dying slowly due to the deep cut of the wound.
She drops the Dark Twi'lek Jedi's Lightsaber to the ground. She steps out of his way. "I am sorry for your bother." say Rachelle as she dodges the attack. She will not finish this Dark Jedi up. He is already dying. She keeps her emotion in check; she must not let her emotions get the better of her. She would hate to fall to the Dark Side. She knows once she does, she might never be the same. The last thing she wants to do want to be on the side that is against Mark. Not only will it break her heart at the thought of fighting against him, but also the fact that she will be a person standing in his way to protect the Republic and the Jedi Order.
Even without the Force, she notices that death is approaching on the Dark Twi'lek Jedi she is facing due to the fact that he is slowing down. Then the Dark Twi'lek Jedi falls down to the ground breathing his last breathes. "Curse you!" was the last thing he utters. Rachelle senses that he is now gone to the other side of the Force.
She stills feel bad about letting her emotions get to her. She could felt the power of the Dark Side channel through her a bit. Even more reason why she is glad that she caught hold of it before it was to light.
Someone tried to sneak up on her. Rachelle leaps through the air and landed behind the female human Dark Jedi that was approaching her from behind. "I advise you to leave, while you still have the chance." say Rachelle as she activates her Lightsaber, making notes that she has all her negative emotions in check.
The female Dark Jedi laughs as she actives a red plasma bladed Lightsaber and tried to stabs Rachelle through the chest as she hold the Lightsaber under her left armpit. Rachelle uses the Force to slide backwards out of the blade reach, forcing the female Dark Jedi to turn around and face her.
Then they lock into a Lightsaber battle. Green plasma blade smashes against red. Up, down, left, right the Lightsaber went. Every hit seem to hit Rachelle's Lightsaber harder. Rachelle raises her Lightsaber above her head and the female Dark Jedi takes the chance of throwing a very powerful Force Lightning at Rachelle which sends her sliding and then head over heels.
Rachelle landed on some dead CorSec officers. She stands up and barely had time to block when the female Dark Jedi strikes her again. Rachelle defended herself by having her Lightsaber going diagonally up to the left side, Protecting her torso from a deadly slashes that the female Dark Jedi try to hit her with. With a quickly twist and a downward slash, Rachelle brings her Lightsaber down the female Dark Jedi's Lightsaber, which scarps against her chest and then cut destroys the Dark Jedi's Lightsaber hilt.
Rachelle then use a massive Force Push to send the female Dark Jedi flying away into the forest, unknowing killing the female Dark Jedi due to the force of the impact against a tree branch that pierced her heart. She turns around and sees her older sister being surrounded by criminal gang.
Rachelle used the Force to speed up as she races toward her sister. She used the Force to power up a jump and landed behind her sister. Rachelle focuses on the Force and used a Force Wave. This is similar to a Force Push but goes in all directions around the person who uses it. The Force Wave was so strong that it sends people flying through the air.
Rachelle saw a grenade being thrown toward them. She used the Force to send it back. It destroys a group of the criminal gang. "At this rate, there would not be any to take in!" say Lillian looking over her shoulder. It did not take her long to realize if it was not for her younger sister she would have been dead.
"Still you can find the insider, it just will be harder. Sometimes taking the easy path is not always the best." say Rachelle as she blocks a blaster fire with her Lightsaber. Rachelle decides it is time to scare some of these criminal gangs. Due to the ability Force Illusion, Rachelle made it seem like that there were tons of military ships in the air in the eyes of the criminal gang. The criminal gang begins to run as fast as there legs can carry them, right into the awaiting arms of the CorSec agents.
Rachelle took a deep breath and was surprise she was able to create and illusion for some many people at once. Lillian looks at her with a confusing look. "Why did they all run?" ask Lillian. "I used the Force to manipulate them into thinking they see a bunch of Corellian Military ships. See the Force can manipulate the minds of those who are weak minded into seeing or doing stuff that they would not normally do." say Rachelle. "Hmm, seem like being able to use the Force is good." say Lillian. During one of the nights, Rachelle was told by Lillian that their family hated anyone who was able to use the Force. "Depends how the Force is used makes it good or bad." say Rachelle.
Without any farther chatting the two sisters, climb into the open hanger bay. Rachelle looks around in the darken ship. There was no humming of the engine at all. She is not use to be in a ship that is this size without some sort of power being on. One with their blasters pointing out in front of them and the other holding and activate green plasma bladed Lightsaber in front of her to cover her own torso.
In order to protect her sister more, Rachelle walk close to her but in front. She sense Darth Destria is somewhere nearby. Makes her wonder where Obi-wan is. She senses that he not inside the ship, but somewhere outside going against a group of Dark Jedi. She has faith that Obi-wan Kenobi has more than enough skills and experiences that he would be okay. He did take down a Sith Lord when he was a Padawan on Naboo.
While Rachelle is reaching out through the Force, her older sister is straining her ears to hear if anyone or anything is coming. She knows if there is a Dark Jedi or heavens forbid a Sith, she would not stand a match against them. She expect only someone who was trained in the Force would be able to stand up to them.
The only noise they hear is the echoes of their footsteps along the metal floor. As they walk around the hanger, they notice a bunch of different ships sitting on the ground. Rachelle knows Darth Destria could be hidden anywhere within the hanger bay. Add the several of stolen ships, Darth Destria have a tons of place to hide. Rachelle's main worry is Lillian. She just found a member of her family a family she has outside of the Jedi Order, and she does not want to lose that only member she knows about.
Through the Force, she knows Lillian was more than ready to put her life on the line for her. Even through Lillian does not have any control over the Force; she knows that Lillian in ways is similar to the Jedi. She always seems to put people before her. That was why she gave Rachelle to the Jedi Order when they came to the planet all those years ago.
"Lillian, you should get out of here." say Rachelle as she looks at her older sister behind her. "I am not leaving my baby sister alone without protection." say Lillian. "Lillian, I am glad of what you are trying to do for me, but you really got to get lost. Darth Destria is somewhere aboard the ship. After our last encounter, I bet she wants me dead since I escape from her. She will use you to get to me. Now get lost!" say Rachelle.
Lillian eyes narrow as she looks at Rachelle. "No, I am not leaving you. That is not what families are for. They stick together." say Lillian. "How would you know? You went against our family, and I do not even know our family that much. I know you care a lot about me, that why you kidnap me from our parents and why you left the Jedi Order take me. Against Darth Destria, all you would do is delay, not stop her from getting to me. You are no match against her. She was trained by a person who is a master of the Dark Side, a person who hurt Master Zane a lot, and he is one of the strongest in the order." say Rachelle.
They hear someone's feet hit the metal floor. Rachelle turns around and sees Darth Destria standing there with two activated red tinted purple plasma blades holding at a 15 degrees angle from her. "How's touching. Now drop your Lightsaber or your sister will perish." say Darth Destria using the Force to lift Lillian through the air.
Right away Lillian is having a hard time breathing as she try to remove the invisible hands from her neck. Rachelle looks conflicted, she knows if she drops her Lightsaber, then Darth Destria will kill her. She will be defenseless but her sister will be safe.
Rachelle sighs as she deactivates her Lightsaber and looks down. She tosses it to the floor. Out of the part of Darth Destria face that she could see was an evil smile. "Pathetic!" shout Darth Destria as she flings Lillian to the side. Lillian nails a metal wall of the hanger hard with her head. She falls down to the ground. Rachelle senses her sister is alive but knocked out and injured very bad.
Before Rachelle could react she was engulfed by a powerful blast of Force Lightning. At first she manages to stand there but falls to her knees. "Didn't Master Zane ever taught you, to not to trust a Sith! After I kill you, I will kill your sister." laughs Darth Destria.
Rachelle screams in pain as the Force Lightning engulfs her. There was nothing in her training with Mark could prepare her for this. She left her guard down to save her sister for a little bit, but that was still enough to give Darth Destria her opening.
