Chapter 10 Battle Of Endor, The Ewok Counterattack

Solo and his team were moved out of the shield bunker under gunpoint. "All right move it." Said a scout-trooper.

Suddenly a voice from the forest cried out "Hello! I say over there, were you looking for me?" said a protocol droid.

The troopers surprised by the voice turned to look for the source. An officer spotted the droids right away. "Bring those two down here." He ordered

Three storm-troopers rushed up and surrounded the droids "Freeze! Don't Move."

C-3PO raised his arms "We surrender!"

Then another high-pitched cry, more like a battle-cry than anything else sounded from the forest. Suddenly three Ewok warriors attack the storm-troopers from behind and beat on them with rocks and whatever else they could find. Then two separate groups of archers opened up on the Imperials. The situation degraded into a free-for-all. The Rebels taking advantage of the confusion broke ranks stole Imperial weapons and started to fight back. They were back in front of the hatch to the bunker within moments. The Hazard team had stayed outside to provide sniper cover. Phaser fire ripped through the forest downing trooper after trooper and even a few officers. Solo called for R2 but Chell heard the call to and came running over. "Cover me!" he yelled. He got his tricorder out and began working on the door. The other Hazard team members were spread out among the forest, Munro and Murphy, Chang and Oviedo all taking part in the fighting. Munro told Murphy "Chell is over at the shield bunker, go give him some cover. I'll stay right here." He ordered as he picked off another scout-trooper. He tapped his combage "Munro to Voyager."

"Voyager here Lieutenant, report."

"We've begun our attack captain but were forced out of the generator; we're now attempting to reenter the facility."

"Acknowledged, hurry Lieutenant the Death Star just took out another Cruiser we need those shields down ASAP."

"Yes ma'am Munro out. Munro to Chell, how's it coming?"

"Almost got it sir, might want to have some demos ready to go in when I get this door op- ahhhhhh!"

"Chell!"

"I'm hit!"

"Munro to Murphy are you at the bunker yet?"

"Yes sir, Chell is ok, just a shot to the shoulder I'll finish opening the door."

"Good" he said then he opened a general channel "Hazard team, re-group at the bunker immediately. Standby to set demo charges and blow the generator."

A chorus of acknowledgements and Munro headed back to the generator. On the way he ran into a squad of storm-troopers who pinned him down. Then a group of Ewoks hit them from behind and he was able to continue on. By the time he got to the generator Telsia had the door open. "Let's go." He said. The team rushed inside and placed detonator packs along with rebel demolitionists. When the charges were set Solo yelled "Move, move move, MOVE!!!!" as they evacuated the generator. Solo took cover behind a bush and watched satisfaction as the generator blew up.
