Sabine grabbed and picked up a piece of Beskar shoulder plating from the disintegrated body and armor of the Mandalorian warrior that she was kneeling over before the piece of Beskar disintegrated and flew out of her hand.
"There were rumors the Empire was working on a weapon to neutralize Mandalorian armor that it had even been tested on our people," Bo-Katan spoke up as she stepped forward, "I-I didn't believe it."
"Not the Empire. Me. This is all my fault," Sabine corrected her.
"Sabine, you can't blame yourself for this," Satele told her, "You tried-"
"Everything I told you after you, Kanan and Zeb rescued me and Hera from Fort Anaxes all those years ago was true, Satele!" Sabine said, interrupting her as she stood up as tears rolled down her face from her eyes, "This is my work! May I remind you that once I told you why I escaped the Imperial Academy, you snapped at me in anger, because of me, the Empire is going to turn our world into a graveyard! Because of me, our fellow Mandalorians are going to die! Our mother, brother, aunt and uncle are-"
"Sabine!" They suddenly heard Ursa say in the distance, causing them to gasp as Sabine stopped crying and saw Ursa, Tristan, Leto and Ara emerge from the smoke near the wreckage with all four of them injured and their armors being battered with Tristan helping Ursa as he had his arm over the back of her neck, while he held his helmet under his other arm as Leto did the same thing with Ara.
"Tristan! Uncle Leto! Aunt Ara! Mother!" Sabine cried with relief as she ran towards them, "Mother, Tristan, Uncle Leto, Aunt Ara, I… I thought that me and Satele lost you."
"We were caught at the edge of the weapon's range. Thanks to your warning, we made it out," Ursa explained.
"The others weren't so lucky," Tristan stated.
"Including our Clan Qarl warriors that were present at the battle besides us didn't survive the weapon either," Ara added.
"Was it all of your clan or just a hundred warriors?" Janus asked them.
"It was at least a hundred," Leto answered.
"Yeah, not enough to destroy our entire clan," Ara said, agreeing with Leto, "You know our clan isn't as big as Clan Wren is as we just have at least a few hundred warriors at most compared to Clan Wren where they have at least a thousand."
"That's good to hear," Janus told them, "I wouldn't want the clan that my girlfriend's father was born in decimated by a weapon that targets and destroys Beskar."
"Chopper's picked up something," Kanan as Chopper suddenly rolled up to Rau and grunted as his transmitter began beeping as it rotated around in a circle.
"Survivors?" Bo-Katan asked as Rau placed his helmet back over his head as he began to scan the area in the distance.
"No," Rau answered as he saw over a dozen Imperial super commandos fly towards them on his helmet's built-in rangefinder, "The Empire's coming back to finish the job."
Satele and Janus placed their helmets back over their heads as the Imperial super commandos flew towards them as she grabbed both of her lightsabers from her armor's belt and ignited them as she grabbed them in a reverse grip, while Janus pulled out both of his WESTAR-35s as Sabine grabbed both her lightsaber and the Darksaber from her armor's belt and ignited them as well and yelled a battle cry as the Imperial super commandos started to fire upon them with their blaster rifles.
"Get back, Mother. I'll cover you!" Satele told her mother as she deflected the Imperial super commandos' blaster bolts, while she was being dragged back by Alrich, while Leto and Ara were taking cover to avoid the Imperial super commandos due to their injuries as Tristan and Janus flew towards the Imperial super commandos after Tristan placed his helmet back over his head.
Sabine yelled as she used the Force to jump up and flew towards one of the Imperial super commandos with her jetpack after using the Force to throw them at the ground beside the wreckage of an Imperial troop transport as she extended her arm out towards them and slashed her lightsaber against the Imperial super commando's blaster rifle's barrel, making the rifle useless.
Rau fired his WESTAR-35s at the Imperial super commandos as Kanan stood next to him with his saber ignited as he deflected the Imperial super commandos' blaster bolts with it, while Bo-Katan flew behind them, firing her WESTAR-35s at an Imperial super commando that was chasing her.
"Get your mother, father, uncle and aunt out of here!" Kanan ordered Satele.
"Mother, Father, Uncle Leto, Aunt Ara, come on!" Satele said, calling out to both of her parents and her uncle and aunt as she began to head towards the speeder bike that Kanan used to get there, only for one of the Imperial super commandos to fire a rocket at the speeder bike from their jetpack, destroying it instantly.
"Are you all right, Satele?" Ursa asked her youngest daughter as the five of them laid on their stomachs.
"Yeah, are you all right?" Leto asked his niece, "If not, we can get you some Bacta later."
"I'm fine," Satele answered in a groaning tone, "Actually better than the bike. But uncle, I think you, Aunt Ara, Mother and Tristan need it more than I do."
"I suppose you're right, Satele," Leto told Satele as he knew that she was right.
"Sabine!" Kanan called out to his other Padawan as he rushed over to her after deflecting blaster bolts with his saber and grabbed her by the arm as he was deflecting the Imperial super commandos' blaster bolts back at them with her lightsaber, "Sabine! We have to leave now!"
"All right. Let's go," Sabine relented after a few seconds of hesitation as Tristan, Janus and Bo-Katan landed in front of Satele, Chopper, Ursa, Alrich, Leto and Ara with Ursa, Leto and Ara firing their WESTAR-35s back at the Imperial super commandos.
"They've cut us off!" Satele said as Bo-Katan, her boyfriend and brother fired their WESTAR-35s at the Imperial super commandos when Rau, Kanan and Sabine approached him with both Rau and Sabine firing their WESTAR-35s at the Imperial super commandos after Sabine clipped her lightsaber back onto her armor's belt when they suddenly heard and saw TIE fighters flying towards them but before the TIE fighters could fire their laser cannons at them, a Kom'rk-class fighter painted in the blue and silver colors of Clan Kryze suddenly appeared, rotating its wings around as it fired at the TIE fighters, shooting one of them down before firing at the remaining Imperial super commandos, killing two of them with the final one evading the Kom'rk-class fighter's lasers.
"Come on!" Bo-Katan urged everyone as the Kom'rk-class fighter landed nearby with its ramp lowering as the TIE fighters began to fire their laser cannons at them before everyone entered the Kom'rk-class fighter with Bo-Katan entering the Kom'rk-class fighter last before the ramp raised back up as the Kom'rk-class fighter began to take off as the TIE fighters began to chase them.
"Weapons are down," Rau reported to the Clan Kryze Mandalorian warrior that was piloting the Kom'rk-class fighter as he sat next to him in the co-pilot's seat as the alarms began blaring as one of the TIE fighters fired a laser at one of the ship's thrusters located on one of its wings with its laser cannons, "We're losing power!"
"I can keep us in the air but we can't take another hit like that," Sabine said as she entered the cockpit and climbed underneath the dashboard as she went to repair the ship's weapons and shields.
"Where are you going?" Satele asked Bo-Katan as she saw her heading to the cargo bay doors as they stood in the cargo hold, "Rau said our weapons are down."
"As you know, Satele, a Mandalorian with a Jetpack is a weapon," Bo-Katan replied before jumping out of the cargo bay doors as she activated her jetpack.
"Then it looks like I'll go with you, my lady," Satele muttered to herself as she moved her cape over her right shoulder and followed Bo-Katan out of the cargo bay doors as she activated her jetpack as well.
Bo-Katan flew past one of the TIE fighters from underneath, evading its lasers from its laser cannons before turning back around and flew towards the TIE fighter that she flew underneath from behind as another TIE fighter started to chase and fire upon her from behind before she grabbed onto the TIE fighter's hatch.
As Satele flew around with her jetpack, she evaded from crashing into the viewport of a TIE fighter that was in front of her and swirled back around before grabbing onto the TIE fighter as Bo-Katan punched open the TIE fighter's hatch that she grabbed onto and threw a thermal detonator inside of the pod, surprising the TIE pilot that was piloting the TIE fighter before flying away as Satele opened the hatch of the TIE fighter that she grabbed onto before grabbing one of her thermal detonators from one of her armor's bags and threw it inside the TIE fighter's pod as well before flying back to the Kom'rk-class fighter.
Back at Sundari, on Tiber Saxon's Star Destroyer, he and Rook Kast were showing a video demonstration of Sabine's weapon named the Duchess on her, Satele and Janus' fellow Clan Wren Mandalorian warriors as well as Leto and Ara's fellow Clan Qarl Mandalorian warriors during the battle after Sabine and Satele rescued their father, Alrich Wren to a hologram of Grand Admiral Thrawn, who had his arms behind his back with Captain Hark standing behind them.
"In this recording, you will see the first test trial of the weapon used against Clans Wren and Qarl," Tiber told the Chiss Grand Admiral as the video showed a beam of energy latching onto Mandalorians of Clans Wren and Qarl as the beam of energy flew out of the Duchess, attached to a modified AT-DP, causing the Beskar from the armor of the Mandalorian warriors to turn red before falling to the ground seconds later after their bodies disintegrated into nothingness.
"As you see, Grand Admiral, the Arc Generator's energy pulse is drawn to the Beskar alloy in the Mandalorian's armor, superheating it and instantly vaporizing the target and all the while, doing no harm to our Imperial stormtroopers," Rook added as the recording began to show stormtroopers searching the area as the beams of energy passed through them, harmlessly and not even damaging their armor.
"The weapon is fully operational as promised, Grand Admiral," Tiber finished as the recording of the demonstration of the Duchess turned off.
"Effective, yes but you miss the true artistry of this weapon, Governor Saxon," Thrawn said as he turned around towards Tiber, "It turns an armor legendary for its strength into a crippling weakness and it strikes at the very heart of your people's tradition."
"You said the Emperor wanted this uprising dealt with quickly," Tiber recalled, "This will end it."
"You're different than your brother, Governor," Thrawn told him, "How would Gar Saxon feel about you betraying your heritage?"
"He no longer feels anything," Tiber answered, recalling his brother's death on Krownest by Ursa Wren, "I have evolved. Mandalore must evolve with me."
"Once your people see their sense of security turned against them do you believe they'll swear loyalty to the Empire?" Thrawn asked him.
"A Mandalorian without armor is no more than a common soldier. Fear will compel them to join the Empire," Tiber answered.
"In other words, they'd be a Dar'Manda, Grand Admiral," Rook added, "It's Mando'a for no longer a Mandalorian."
"I know what it means, Commander Kast, I've studied Mandalorian culture," Thrawn told her, "But I want to know why you want it used as well."
"I only want it used as long as I get revenge on Ursa and her daughters," Rook answered, "So I can avenge Gar Saxon."
"Yes, but how will you be safe if you use it on them with you standing nearby, Commander?" Thrawn asked her.
"When we looked through the plans for Sabine Wren's weapon when she was a cadet, we found that she had some plans for some undersuit that protects the wearer from the Arc pulse Generator's energy pulse," Rook answered, "Which I'm currently wearing under my armor."
"We shall see," Thrawn said before turning back towards them, "Of course, the weapon's range is far more limited than you promised, Governor Saxon. Or perhaps you thought I wouldn't notice?"
"We only had pieces of the prototype. We've done everything we could," Tiber explained.
"Neither of you cannot make it work properly because you both do not truly understand it. You both need the weapon's creator," Thrawn told them, "You both need Sabine Wren." Tiber and Rook then nodded a response, knowing what they must do.
"Governor, Commander, I mean no disrespect but what will stop the Empire from using the weapon on us as well?" Hark asked Tiber and Rook as the hologram of Thrawn switched off as Tiber crossed his arms.
"Unquestioning loyalty, Captain," Tiber answered, "Now, find Sabine Wren."
"And if you find either her sister or their mother with her, then bring them to me so I can use the weapon on them," Rook added as she and Tiber walked away from Hark.
As the Kom'rk-class fighter that belonged to Bo-Katan's faction of the Mandalorian Resistance, Ursa and Alrich stood next to each other with Alrich comforting his wife as he held his hand within her hand as she had her other hand on her elbow with Leto and Ara standing nearby, talking with their helmets under their arms as Tristan stood across from Kanan with his helmet under his arms with Janus standing next to him with his face somewhat filled with anger as he held his helmet under his arms as Satele sat on steps behind them with her helmet under her arms as Sabine stood on top of the steps with her helmet under her arms as well, conflicted on how it was that her weapon still existed after her sabotaged and destroyed it years ago after it killed her mother's cousins along with a few Clan Wren Mandalorian warriors as they all stood inside the ship's cargo hold.
"You told us you destroyed it," Tristan told Sabine with confusion as he approached her.
"I did. The Empire must have rebuilt it. They…" Sabine began to say, only to be grabbed by Bo-Katan, throwing her against the wall of the ship as the leader of Clan Kryze grunted.
"You're a Mandalorian! Why would you create such an abomination?!" Bo-Katan scowled at her with disbelief, "This is a weapon of a coward." Satele was about to step in to defend her sister for her actions as everyone began to approach them, only for Kanan to stop her as he placed a hand over her armor's pauldron.
"I was young. It was a challenge and I was arrogant. But when I realized the Empire tested it on my mother's cousins and a few of our Clan Wren warriors and actually planned to use it to crush rebellion on Mandalore, I sabotaged the prototype and destroyed the plans," Sabine said, explaining her actions from when she was an Imperial cadet at the Imperial Academy on Mandalore, "I thought that would be the end of it, I swear to you!" Bo-Katan was still angry but relented as she released Sabine from her hold.
"What's so important that you Mandalorians have to use Beskar for your armor rather than something else like Durasteel?" Kanan asked everyone, oblivious to the importance of Beskar to his Padawans and every single Mandalorian, which caused everyone to stare at him, shocked at what he just asked.
"It's not that simple, Kanan," Satele told him, "It's the material that we Mandalorians have used since the Taungs, the original Mandalorians found Beskar in the Mines on Mandalore and its moon of Concordia after they were exiled from Coruscant by the ancestors of humans."
"She's right," Sabine said, agreeing with her sister, "Like what she said just before we first met Thrawn on Ryloth, my armor is 500 years old, hers is 300 and Tristan's is 600. We reforge them to our likings but the battles, the history, the blood all lives within them. And the same goes for every Mandalorian."
"This armor is part of our identity," Alrich told Kanan, agreeing with his daughters, "It makes us Mandalorians who we are."
"And now it's going to make us dead," Bo-Katan said, staring at Sabine before walking away in anger.
It was night as the Kom'rk-class fighter soon arrived at Bo-Katan's camp with Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors approaching the ship as it flipped its wings upwards as it landed with its ramp lowering to reveal Satele, Sabine, Rau and Bo-Katan behind them as they stood on the top of the ramp as the twins along with Bo-Katan holding their helmets under their arms, while Rau held his helmet in front of his chest as Chopper stood in front of them.
"Sabine Wren!" One of the Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors said, calling out to Sabine with anger in his voice as he and the other two Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors that were standing next to him and pulled their WESTAR-35s out from their holsters and aimed them at her.
"We know you built that weapon," one of the other Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors added as Satele and Janus pulled their WESTAR-35s in retaliation, "You betrayed us all!"
"You're a traitor to Mandalore!" The Clan Kryze Mandalorian warrior that greeted them told Sabine.
"Lower your weapons!" Alrich said as he, Ursa, Tristan, Leto and Ara began to walk down the ship's ramp with Tristan helping his mother down the ramp as Leto did the same for his sister, "Sabine did everything she could to stop this from happening. You must believe us."
"Any attack on any of my daughters is an attack on Clan Wren," Ursa stated as she and Tristan pulled out one of their WESTAR-35s and aimed them at the Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors.
"I agree with Countess Wren as an attack on either Sabine or Satele is an attack on Clan Qarl as well," Leto said, agreeing with Ursa as he and Ara pulled out one of their WESTAR-35s and aimed them at the Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors as well.
"No," Sabine muttered as she dropped her helmet.
"What are you doing, Sis?" Satele asked her sister with confusion and disbelief.
"I'm prepared to take responsibility for my actions," Sabine explained before turning to the Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors, "It's true I designed the weapon as a loyal student at the Imperial Academy. The Empire is using my prototype, but it's only functioning at a fraction of its capacity. At full power, it will destroy armies. So you've got a choice to make. We can fight each other or we can destroy this weapon once and for all."
"I understand your anger," Bo-Katan said as she stepped forward to her fellow Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors, "In many ways, I feel the same. But Sabine is right. Now is not the time to be divisive. She knows most about this weapon and how to destroy it. We need her," the Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors then reluctantly placed their WESTAR-35s back in their holsters and walked away as Bo-Katan turned to Sabine as everyone except Alrich walked forward into the camp, "It's time to prove your loyalty, not just to your family, but to all of Mandalore." Bo-Katan then began to walk towards the camp as Sabine grabbed the Darksaber from her armor's belt and looked at it before turning to her father, who was still standing on the ship's ramp and nodded to her.
"Saxon and Kast have both worked hard to keep the weapon a secret so they likely have it aboard his Imperial Star Destroyer, outside of Sundari," Alrich said as he had his arms crossed as Chopper projected an image with the plans of Tiber's Star Destroyer with his holoprojector after Tristan helped the astromech droid before he stood back up as he placed both of his arms behind his back as the rest of the Wrens, Leto, Ara, Rau, Kanan and Bo-Katan stood in the center of one of the buildings in the camp with Rau and Bo-Katan having their helmets under their arms as one of the Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors standing next to Alrich, while two of the Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors were guarding the building from outside next to its doorway, "Needless to say, it will be very well guarded."
"Once we get inside that ship, we'll need two teams, one to find the weapon and to wipe out every shred of data on it from the Imperial computer systems," Sabine told them.
"This weapon, is there any way it could be turned against the Empire?" Rau asked her.
"I've studied stormtrooper armor and while the thought has crossed my mind, that-that isn't our mission," Sabine told him.
"And if we even attempt that, we'd be as bad as the Empire or even Death Watch when they massacred the people of Carlac," Satele stated before looking at Bo-Katan, "No offense, my lady."
"None taken," Bo-Katan responded.
"I agree with Satele, there would be little gain on doing that and we'd look like terrorists like Saw Gerrera and his partisans are seen to the Empire and the Rebellion," Janus said, agreeing with his girlfriend.
"They're right, we have to destroy it," Sabine said, agreeing with her sister and Janus.
"I will lead the attack team," Ursa volunteered.
"With respect, Countess, you can barely hold a blaster and the same goes with Ara as you both were injured heavily by Sabine's weapon more so than Tristan or Count Qarl were," Rau argued.
"I'm just as good with my other hand," Ursa assured him, as both Alrich and Tristan placed their hands over both of her armor's pauldrons.
"Same with me," Ara said, agreeing with Ursa, "My other hand is still good with holding a blaster."
"Yes, Mother, but we'll need you and Aunt Ara for tactical support," Sabine told her.
"So be it," Ursa relented, going with Sabine's request.
"If I can get to the weapon, I can make sure it's destroyed," Sabine told them.
"I'll get you there," Bo-Katan assured Sabine.
"As will I, Sis," Satele said, offering to help her sister get to her weapon with Bo-Katan.
"Janus and I will take Chopper to the data core," Kanan told Sabine.
"All right, let's go over our infiltration path," Sabine said as Chopper switched his holoprojector off for a second before switching it back on with the plans of Tiber's Star Destroyer as Rau and Bo-Katan walked away to the side.
"I'm surprised to see you so swayed by Sabine Wren. You seem to be impressed with her as well as I am," Rau told Bo-Katan, "Besides, I'm also impressed with Satele taking up her role as Sabine's second-in-command."
"I had my doubts with Sabine, Rau, but she came back to face her past with her sister and her bold initiative has impressed me, so has her sister," Bo-Katan explained as she stared at Sabine, who was planning their attack with Satele helping out, "Sabine has become a courageous leader. Even though she and Satele are Jedi, they both remind me of the best of who we were and could inspire us to become more than we have been of late. I will not allow Sabine's efforts to be wasted."
Soon the Mandalorians along with Kanan and Chopper flew towards Tiber Saxon's Star Destroyer, which was docked outside of the domed city of Sundari with their jetpacks, which Chopper used his rocket booster and grabbed onto the ledge of the floor of one of the two hangar bays with Sabine looking around and saw an Imperial shuttle in the hangar bay along with three TIE fighters as a stormtrooper walked past the TIE fighters towards the Imperial shuttle as she saw the modified AT-DP that her weapon that she built from when she was a cadet at the Imperial Academy was attached to earlier but was missing from the modified AT-DP as it stood in the back of the hangar bay before climbing up the ledge with everyone else doing the same as they began sneaking around as they held their WESTAR-35s in their hands before Sabine gestured to them to stop before she flipped down her helmet's macrobinocular viewplate's rangefinder.
"I can't help but notice the weapon's core isn't here," Rau observed.
"Thank you, Fenn Rau. That's helpful," Sabine replied, sarcastically before looking up at a deck above them and behind the modified AT-DP before flipping her helmet's macrobinocular viewplate's rangefinder back up, "Best bet, they're working on the Duchess up there."
"The Duchess?" Bo-Katan repeated with disbelief, "You named your weapon after my sister? The former ruler of Mandalore?"
"It was a series of bad decisions, OK?" Sabine explained as she looked at her when they suddenly heard someone walking down a ladder behind them and turned around and watched a TIE pilot walk down the ladder.
"Hey. Hey!" The TIE pilot yelled as he noticed Satele in front of him through the ladder's steps, causing Bo-Katan and Sabine to rush over to the TIE pilot and knock him out.
"Hold it right there!" A stormtrooper ordered them as he walked down the Imperial shuttle's ramp, causing Bo-Katan to fire her WESTAR-35 at the stormtroopers as Sabine and Satele grabbed their lightsabers from their armor's belt with Kanan doing the same with his lightsaber and ignited them as they began to deflect the stormtroopers' blaster bolts as they began to fire their E-11 blaster rifles at them.
"Hold them off!" Sabine ordered Rau as they hid behind a TIE fighter's wing as she deactivated her lightsaber and clip it back onto her armor's belt and pulled both of her WESTAR-35s out, "Satele, Bo-Katan and I will get to the weapon."
Rau then left Sabine and Bo-Katan as he and the other Mandalorians including Tristan and Leto activated their jetpacks and began firing their WESTAR-35s at the stormtroopers as they flew up into the air as both Sabine and Bo-Katan left from cover behind one of the TIE fighter's wings as they activated their jetpacks as Satele did the same as she joined them as she deactivated both of her lightsabers and clipped them back onto her armor's belt and pulled both of her WESTAR-35s out and flew under the Imperial shuttle as two combat drivers entered two AT-DPs that they were standing on from their hatches and closed their hatches before turning the AT-DPs' pods towards the Mandalorians.
"Those will complicate things," Rau muttered as he noticed the AT-DPs staring down at them as Sabine, Satele and Bo-Katan landed on containers behind the AT-DPs and ran across them as Bo-Katan threw a thermal detonator near some of the stormtroopers as it began to beep rapidly.
"Look out!" One of the stormtroopers yelled as he noticed the thermal detonator behind him before it exploded as the Mandalorians excluding Satele, Sabine, Janus and Bo-Katan fired upon the AT-DPs as Janus, Kanan and Chopper left the hangar bay for the data core, while Sabine, Satele and Bo-Katan stood on a lift next to them, which began to rise upwards.
Sabine, Satele and Bo-Katan aimed their WESTAR-35s around as the lift stopped at the deck above as they entered the room.
"There it is," Sabine said as she saw the Arc pulse Generator in the center of the room and began to approach it as she placed her WESTAR-35s back in their holsters.
"It doesn't seem so dangerous like this," Bo-Katan stated as she placed her WESTAR-35s back in their holsters as well.
"I don't think you really should say that, Bo-Katan," Satele told her as she also placed her WESTAR-35s as they began to follow Sabine towards the Arc pulse Generator.
"What's that sound?" Bo-Katan asked as they suddenly heard a loud sound from the weapon.
"Oh, no. It's been activated," Sabine muttered as she approached the weapon as its Arc pulse energy flew out from the rotar-like device within the weapon and latched onto the three Mandalorians, causing them to scream in pain before falling to the floor.
Tiber Saxon then walked in, wearing his Jumptrooper helmet with Rook Kast, who had her Imperial super commando helmet over her head as well along with Captain Hark behind them as both Tiber and Rook removed their helmets and placed them under their arms as Sabine, Satele and Bo-Katan groaned in pain.
"Stay back, Captain," Rook told Hark as she looked at him with the corner of her eye before she and Tiber continued to walk towards Sabine as Tiber kneeled down towards her as she panted and groaned in pain.
"Sabine Wren. You truly are brilliant, except for thinking you could infiltrate my ship unnoticed," Tiber said, looking at Sabine as she began to breathe heavily as he placed his helmet on the floor, "Sadly, as much as me and Commander Kast would love to end your life as well as your sister's, we need you alive. You are going to upgrade your experiment and deliver a weapon that operates at its full potential."
"Never!" Sabine snarled, panting as she removed her helmet.
"Let's see if I can persuade you," Tiber told her.
"Governor, stop!" Hark protested as he approached Tiber and placed his hand over his right pauldron, "This is too much. I understand using the weapon against the rebels, but if she makes it more powerful, how will we prevent the Empire from using the weapon against all Mandalorians?"
"Oh, here we again," Rook muttered to herself, "Captain, as I told the Grand Admiral, I only want the weapon used as long as I get revenge on Ursa and her daughters for the role they played in Gar Saxon's death."
"I am the Empire!" Tiber declared as he stood up, "Palpatine has shown me the way to true power." He then turned around and pressed a button on his armor's control pad, causing the Arc pulse Generator's energy to fly out from the weapon and latch onto Sabine, Satele, Bo-Katan and Hark, causing the Imperial super commando captain to fall on the floor on his back, "This is not enough to kill you, just to teach you a lesson that in the end, all of Mandalore will bow to me."
"Gar are dini'la, gar Dar'manda!" Satele yelled at Tiber in Mando'a as she screamed in pain after removing her helmet.
"Oh, I'm insane and a Dar'manda?" Tiber said with disbelief, "Enlighten me on how I'm insane and a Dar'manda."
"You want all of Mandalore to bow before you and your Empire and you're a Dar'manda for not wearing any Beskar and using my sister's weapon on all Mandalorians who don't submit to you," Satele explained as she continued to groan in pain, "And you're more insane than your brother, Gar Saxon and Manda'lor the Ultimate were."
"As I told Grand Admiral Thrawn, Mandalore must adapt to survive and if we have to forgo our armor then so be it," Tiber stated.
"But how is she not being affected by the weapon?" She asked him, looking at Rook as she continued to groan in pain, "She's wearing armor that has some Beskar in it and the weapon only targets Beskar."
"Because I am wearing an undersuit designed by your sister that protects myself from the weapon's energy," Rook answered.
"No," Sabine gasped with shock, "I thought I destroyed the plans for that as well when I destroyed the plans for the weapon."
"It would seem that you didn't try hard enough, Sabine Wren," Tiber told her.
Chopper grunted as he rotated his scomp link around as it was inserted within an astromech inside of the data core before taking it out as he rolled away from it as stormtroopers began firing their E-11 blaster rifles at Kanan and Janus as Kanan deflected one of the stormtroopers' blaster bolts back at them with his saber as Janus fired his WESTAR-35s back at them before extending one of his arms as he fired a sonic wave from a repulsor from one of his vambraces on his wrists, pushing the other stormtrooper towards a wall, knocking them out.
"We don't have all day, Chop," Janus told Chopper as he and Kanan rushed over to one of the data core's computer terminals after Kanan deactivated his lightsaber as Chopper grunted a response as he rotated his scomp link around the astromech port after inserting it back into the astromech port and soon data of Sabine's weapon and the undersuit that Rook Kast has been wearing to protect herself from the Arc pulse Generator's energy appeared on the monitors of the data core's computer terminals.
"Erase everything," Kanan ordered the astromech, "Every piece of data on or relating to that weapon they've got."
"Sabine, Satele, we're in," Janus said into his helmet's comlink, pressing its button as he walked away, "What's your status?" He got no response from his girlfriend or her sister, causing him to call them again, "Sabine?! Teal?!" He then turned to Kanan as he knew that something had happened, "They're in trouble."
"Go! Chopper and I will finish here," Kanan told him as Janus went to leave the room.
"Don't move!" Kanan heard a stormtrooper order him from behind as three stormtroopers behind him entered the room from the other side of the room and behind Kanan with one of them getting down on one knee as they aimed their blaster rifles at the blind Jedi Knight.
"Oh, I'm moving!" Kanan told them as he reignited his lightsaber and entered the combat stance known as Ataru.
"Now, this is a battle," Janus said as he saw the battlefield within the hangar as the blast door slid open as he saw Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors firing upon AT-DPs that were walking around as Rau with Tristan and Leto standing next to him fired their WESTAR-35s at the stormtroopers, who fired back at them with their E-11 blaster rifles.
He then proceeded to enter the hangar bay as he pulled out both of his WESTAR-35s and fired them at a stormtrooper as he activated his jetpack as he began to fly towards one of the AT-DPs, only for the AT-DP to fire its laser cannon at him, causing him to change direction and accidentally crash between some containers.
As this happened, the Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors continued to fire upon one of the AT-DPs and was about to step on them, only for the Clan Kryze Mandalorian warriors to activate their jetpacks and avoided from being crushed and flew up into the air as they continued to fire upon the AT-DP before one of them fired a rocket at it from their jetpack as the AT-DP as the AT-DP turned to them.
"Janus?" Tristan said as he noticed his sister's boyfriend come towards him, Leto and Rau.
"What are you doing here?" Leto asked Janus, "Shouldn't you be with Kanan removing every shred of data that the Empire has on Sabine's weapon?"
"Kanan said he could finish removing that data of Sabine's weapon with Chopper without me," Janus explained.
"Will you three knock it off?" Rau told them.
"Do you know where Sabine and Satele are?" Janus asked the Protector.
"They're up there," Rau answered as he pointed to the deck above them.
Tiber pressed the button on his wrists's control pad again as the Arc pulse Generator's energy continued to latch onto Sabine, Satele, Bo-Katan and Hark before the energy stopped as the Duchess deactivated as two stormtroopers entered the room.
"Are you impressed by how well your weapon works?" Tiber asked Sabine as Bo-Katan removed her helmet, "I believe you can do better." The stormtroopers then aimed their E-11 blaster rifles at Bo-Katan and Satele as he and Rook grabbed out their own blaster rifles from their hips and did the same, "Help me and Commander Kast increase the range of the weapon or they will die."
"Stop!" Sabine pleaded as she didn't want them to hurt Bo-Katan or her twin sister, "I'll do what you want."
"Sabine, don't!" Bo-Katan and Satele both protested as Sabine stood up with her arms up.
"You're doing the right thing, Sabine," Tiber told Sabine as she walked over towards the Arc pulse Generator and went to readjust its settings, "This weapon of yours, it can unite the houses. It can bring peace."
"As long as our people are on their knees before the two of you and your Emperor," Sabine retorted as she clicked some buttons on her wrist's control pad.
"Mandalore must adapt to survive," Tiber explained, "Would you rather we destroy ourselves in a fight that cannot be won?"
"At least we'd die free, as true Mandalorians," Sabine answered as she stood back up as her weapon was fully readjusted as it sparked to life, "It's done. The weapon is at full power now but I'm begging you both, don't use it."
"We'll take that into consideration," Tiber told her as he clipped his blaster rifle back onto his armor's belt before pressing the button on his wrist's control pad again, causing the Arc pulse energy to fly out of the Arc pulse Generator but instead of latching onto Beskar like before, it latched onto the Imperial stormtroopers' plastoid armor that he and the two stormtroopers that were with him wearing and the undersuit that Rook was wearing under her Imperial super commando armor, causing them to fall to the ground as she dropped her Imperial super commando helmet.
Hark got up as this happened and ran out of the room in fear as both Tiber and Rook looked at Sabine in pain and fear as she stood before them with anger on her face as the Arc pulse energy soon flew out of the room and latched onto the Imperial combat drivers within the AT-DPs, knocking them out on impact before latching onto the stormtroopers below, knocking them out as well.
"What's happening?" Tristan asked as he was confused by what was happening.
"I think I might know," Janus told him.
"Me too," Leto said, agreeing with his niece's boyfriend.
"You're both right," Rau told them before explaining to everyone what was happening, "The weapon's been turned against the Empire." Janus then began to leave them for where his girlfriend, her sister and Bo-Katan were.
"Hands up!" A stormtrooper that entered the data core as he began to surround Kanan with the other stormtroopers ordered the blind Jedi Knight when suddenly the energy from the Arc pulse Generator flew towards him, causing him and the other stormtroopers to scream before the arc pulse energy knocked him and the other stormtroopers in the room out.
"This isn't enough power to kill you, just to make you suffer," Sabine told Tiber and Rook as they continued to look at her with pain on their faces as the energy from the Arc pulse Generator continued to surround them, "How does it feel?!"
"Sabine, stop!" Bo-Katan said, pleading with her to stop.
"Sabine, please listen to Bo-Katan on this, you have to stop using your weapon against them," Satele said, agreeing with Bo-Katan.
"Mandalore must be free!" Sabine argued.
"At what cost?" Bo-Katan asked her.
"To beat the Empire, this is the only way," Sabine answered.
"It's not our way. It's their way," Bo-Katan told her.
"It is also what Death Watch's way was, Sis," Satele said, agreeing with Bo-Katan, "Remember what me and Janus said while we were planning this attack, we said that if we do this, we would be as bad as the Empire and what Death Watch was."
"Your sister's right and besides, you came here to make things right," Bo-Katan told her, "Will the future of Mandalore be one of honor or cowardice? Hope or fear? The choice is yours."
"Do the right thing, Sabine," Satele pleaded with her, "For Mandalore."
Deep down Sabine knew that both Satele and Bo-Katan were right as she grabbed the Darksaber from her armor's belt and ignited its black blade as she approached the Arc pulse Generator, ready to slash the Darksaber against the weapon, "For Mandalore."
"For Mandalore," Bo-Katan said, agreeing with them before Sabine slashed the Darksaber's blade against the Arc pulse Generator, destroying the weapon with the energy from the Arc pulse Generator dissolving as it released Tiber and Rook as Janus, who was on the same lift they came onto the deck from appeared behind them with Sabine, Satele and Bo-Katan sensing him as they turned to him as both Satele and Bo-Katan pulling one of their WESTAR-35s out and aiming them at him, while Sabine aimed the Darksaber at him, thinking he was one of the Imperials.
"Wait, I'm not one of the Imperials," Janus told them as he removed his helmet and placed it under his arm before he noticed the Arc pulse Generator, which began to implode, "We'll that was fast as now your weapon is beginning to implode, Sabine."
"Kanan! Power core's been breached," Sabine said into her wrist communicator as she contacted her and Satele's master.
"Well, the data's wiped but the stormtroopers are recovering and heading this way," Kanan reported.
"Don't worry about them because this entire place is about to blow," she told him.
"We should probably go, then!" Kanan said as Bo-Katan handed Sabine back her helmet as the four Mandalorians placed their helmets back over their heads before rushing onto the lift with Janus as Tiber and Rook regained their composure as Tiber extended his hand out towards the Arc pulse Generator as the lift that Sabine, Satele, Bo-Katan and Janus were on lowered back down to the hangar bay.
Soon everyone entered the hangar bay as the Arc pulse Generator began to spill some lava-like liquid from the deck above onto the modified AT-DP that was used to house the Arc pulse Generator on Clans Wren and Qarl earlier when Sabine, Satele and the others were rescuing Alrich while Ursa, Tristan, Leto and Ara were battling Tiber Saxon and Rook Kast's forces and flew out of the Star Destroyer with their jetpacks and in Chopper's case, his rocket booster as the Star Destroyer began to explode from within as it began to fall from where it was docked and exploded as it crashed down below on one of the sides of Sundari's dome, killing everyone who were still on board the Star Destroyer.
"This is only the beginning. The Empire will send everything they have to crush Mandalore," Bo-Katan stated the next morning as she, Sabine, Satele and Ursa exited a room on her Kom'rk-class fighter, which was stationed outside her camp along with a couple other Kom'rk-class fighters nearby outside the camp as Ursa and her daughters now had their jetpacks removed, while Ursa had cleaned her armor from the damage it took from the Duchess when she, Tristan, Leto and Ara were battling Tiber Saxon and Rook Kast's forces as Sabine, Satele and the others were liberating Alrich.
"That is why you should lead us, my lady," Sabine told her as she turned around towards her.
"You had the courage to make a difficult decision," Bo-Katan reminded her.
"Yeah, but you did help Sabine make the right choice, my lady," Satele told her, "And it was with your guidance along with mine that helped her from making a terrible mistake."
"She's right, and you have the wisdom of a ruler. There's no one I trust to wield the Darksaber more than you," Sabine told Bo-Katan, who just stared at her, "And I am not alone."
The ramp of the ship began to lower as they walked down the ramp and saw thousands of Mandalorian warriors from different clans standing together including Tristan, Leto and Ara as they had their helmets under their arms as Tristan, Leto and Ara had done the same thing with their armors as Ursa did and cleaned them with Alrich, Janus and Rau standing on both sides of the ramp.
"Clan Vizsla is with you," a male Mandalorian with light skin, blue eyes and blond hair wearing Mandalorian armor colored black, silver, a slimmer of red around his Iron Heart and white stated as he held his helmet under his arm.
"Clan Rook is with you," a dark skinned female Mandalorian wearing armor colored in black, silver with a slimmer of yellow on the sides of her pauldrons along with the symbol of her clan in the center of her breastplate told Bo-Katan as she held her helmet under her arm.
"Clan Eldar is with you," a dark skinned male Mandalorian wearing black, silver and orange armor said, agreeing with the other two Mandalorian clan leaders as he held his helmet under his arm.
"Clan Kryze is with you," one of the Clan Kryze Mandalorians told Bo-Katan as they were wearing his helmet over his head.
"Clan Qarl is with you," Leto said, agreeing with the other Mandalorian clan leaders and the Clan Kryze Mandalorian warrior.
"Clan Fett is with you," a male Mandalorian with light tan skin, black hair and brown eyes wearing green, red and gold armor stated as he held his helmet under his arm.
"Clan Ordo is with you," a male Mandalorian with light skin, black hair that was graying and gray eyes wearing silver and black armor said, agreeing with the other Mandalorian clan leaders and the Clan Kryze warrior.
"Clan Skirata is with you," a male Mandalorian warrior with light skin, blue eyes and brown hair wearing sand-gold colored armor stated.
"The Protectors are with you," Rau said, agreeing with the other Mandalorian clan leaders and the Clan Kryze Mandalorian.
"Clan Wren is with you," Ursa told Bo-Katan.
"The Mandalorian sect of the Jedi Order will stand with you," Satele stated.
"Now I understand why the saber came to me," Sabine said as she walked up to Bo-Katan and placed her hand over Bo-Katan's armor's right pauldron, "It came to me so I could pass it to you."
"I accept this sword for my sister, for my clan and for all of Mandalore," Bo-Katan said, finally accepting the Darksaber as Sabine passed it to before igniting its black blade as she held it in the air with every single Mandalorian in the crowd kneeling down to their new Manda'lor as the twins along with Janus smiled at each other.
