The Forced Rider 555 Chapter 6

(I bring you the next instalment. Sorry for the lateness, UNI is a pain and writers block sucks.

Last Time:

Junk Wolf retrieved another Holocron Sphere, rescued R4G3R from Grevious' attempts of stealing his data. Accel deleted the previously stolen Tech Data. All while dealing with Grevous' base and revealing R4G3R's secret ability.

I own Nothing.)

:Chapter Six Start:

A day since last Chapter-Endor Orbit

The Wolf Blade made final approach to the forest planet of Endor. Junk Wolf sat silently as he stared at the planet before R4G3R beeps causing Junk Wolf to sigh and says, "No, I don't think we will have to move," the droid beeps again before the armoured pilot shouts, "Look I don't care that you scanned everyone, and I especially want you to delete the scans of Ahsoka," he calms down and says, "If you don't delete them I am removing your improved sensors." R4G3R beeped one last time and Junk Wolf shouts, "Delete those Naked Pictures!" that was when R4G3R beeped in acknowledgement.

The Wolf Blade cut through the sky until he reached the ancient Mandalorian Dreadnuaght and entered the hanger that closed behind him.

Jedi Cruiser Resolute-A month Later-Ahsoka's cabin

Ahsoka slept sleeping like a log with the pad holding the stories of five colourful protectors on the floor next to her bed. Her dreams become more intense as she has visions of a wolf howling before she sat up in shock. She breathed deeply before calming down as her communicator went off.

She activated the device and her master spoke, "Snips, need you on the bridge, the council has a mission for you."

Ahsoka speaks, "I will be there in a few minutes," she looks to the hook on the wall and looks at the vest Junk Wolf had given her on the Malevolence. She grabs it and puts it on as she leaves her quarters and goes past the a group of clones who salute her.

She reached the end of the hall to the elevators and rode them to the top with her eyes closed. The doors then opened once she reached the main bridge where after opening her eyes she saw Anikin Skywalker at the communication panel.

"Ani I am fine, Jar Jar saved me," Senator Amadala spoke calming Ahsoka's master of his worries.

"I understand," Anikin replied under the watchful eyes of Masters Windo and Luminara, "But this is the second time you have been targeted by the Seperatist. Plus I have met Senator Binks," he did not elaborate but instead changes the subject, "Senator, perhaps until a later date you should avoid diplomatic missions," his look of concern was prominent as he adds, "We cannot be saving you every week, Lady Senator," slight amusement in his voice.

Master Windo spots Ahsoka and says, "Hello Padawan Tano, You are giving you a mission with Master Luminara," he then turns to Skywalker and adds, "She will be taking one of your cruisers to aid master Luminara in transporting Nute Gunray to Corsaunt." The two Jedi nod in understanding before Mace Windo adds, "Skywalker take the remainder of your fleet to escort supply transports to Rodia, Chancellors orders."

What happened next was Ahsoka heading to the cruiser placed in her care but she quickly went back to her quarters and collected her terminal pad and went to the hanger to use a drop ship to reach her destination. After an hour the craft was ready to set off to meet with Master Luminara. Where it will take her a full day to reach the Rodia system, where she decided to continue reading the story of Andros.

Count Dooku's Castle-Serenno-local morning time.

Dooku meditates as his communicator beeps causing him to awaken and activate the holo-table to reveal his Master, Master Sidious.

"I have need of your assassins, Junk Wolf and Ventress," Sidious speaks before adding, "Nute Gunray must be freed, he has knowledge and resources we need to win the war."

Dooku was silent before speaking, "Master, Junk Wolf is not an assassin, he is under contract."

Sidious growls under his breath before saying, "Then hire him," Sidious calmed himself and adds, "Then have him pay off the debt of the station he destroyed."

Dooku was silent before nervously stating, "He did," Sidious was surprised before becoming shocked at what Dooku stated next, "He paid for the next full wave of battle droids and donated the engines for three heavy cruisers."

Sidious nods before stating, "Have them complete their mission immediately," before shutting down communications.

Count Dooku then sent Ventress' orders to her before opening a secret panel to revealing stylised communicator simular to Junk Wolf's phone but styled like Dooku's light sabre.

Forrest moon of Endor-Five minutes later

Junk Wolf out of his armour sat infront of a strange computer covered in equations and designs. One in particular was the bots from the Titus temple and one design he had been looking for, for years. A black wrist device that has three buttons labelled one through three, that when used amplified the power of the user. What Junk Wolf wanted it for was only for him to know at this time.

Junk Wolf leaned back in his chair with a sigh before his phone went off and he answered only to hear, "How does this infernal thing work," Dooku's voice on the other side.

Junk Wolf chuckles lightly before pressing a sequence of buttons on his phone and says, "It is verbal communication not visual. What do you need Dooku?"

Dooku takes a deep breath on the other side of the call and says, "My Master wishes for you aid in saving Nute Gunray from the Republic."

Junk Wolf rolled his eyes before saying, "You want me to rescue a criminal?" Dooku repies with a yes before Junk Wolf adds, "The guy who has been vocal about killing a single senator being the whole reason for this war?" Dooku was silent as Junk Wolf adds, "am I being paid?"

"Yes, enough for a whole fleet of ships," Dooku answered.

"Deal," Junk Wolf answers before asking, "Does he need to be intact?"

"Unfortunately yes," Dooku admitted before adding, "You and Ventress will be infiltrating a Republic Cruiser with Battle droids, use whatever you have at your disposal."

Junk Wolf looked over to his workbench, looking at the octagonal gold disks and says, "It will give me a chance to test a new invention. Where do I meet Ventress?"

"You will meet her at the edge of the Rodia system," Dooku answered, "A Seperatist Cruiser will attack with boarding crafts that you and Ventress will be on." Junk Wolf nods before Dooku states, "You will need to leave the Wolf Blade behind."

Junk Wolf sighs and says, "I will meet up with Ventress," before hanging up, He presses a button on the computer causing it to compress and fold to the size of a small box. He grabs the handle and stashes it in his shuttle before heading to the Wolf Blade as Accel finished loading the craft with R4G3R finishing the prep work. Junk Wolf enters the Wolf Blade as he begins the think of Ventress, of the time that things took a turn for the worst.

Flashback-first year of Junk Wolf's training-The time that a friendship ended-Junk Wolf's point a view.

Junk Wolf in full armour duelled with Count Dooku as Ventress duelled with several early MagnaGuards with her green and blue light sabres. I honestly had to admit, Ventress is strong and capable. Junk Wolf then focused on Dooku as he increased the speed he attacked along with his form.

I managed to block several slashes as my teacher spoke, "You are learning quickly my student, soon you will have master your second form of Jedi Light sabre form, next I will teach you the third form of Sith Light sabre form."

Dooku's smile showed how proud he was of me, but the glare I received from Ventress was filled with anger and a hint of something else he could not place. After this I should install the stabilisers. That would really throw Uncle Dooku for a loop, literally attacking while standing on a wall.

It has only been two months and already I can say that I have had fun, plus seeing Serreno when not training has been a huge help. Add onto the knowledge I have received from Holocron Sphere.

What do I still need, I think as I avoid another slash. 'A Kaiba Crystal cruiser grade, the other four holocron Spheres and my inheritance.' Dooku then kicks me in the chest when he realised I stopped paying attention.

Dooku Shouts, "You must focus! Never ignore your opponent! It will be your end!"

I look down in shame and says, "I am sorry teacher," before getting back into a duelling stance.

Dooku shook his head and says, "That will be all today," Dooku then turned to Ventress, "Both of you," Dooku then went to his meditation chamber.

I went outside and started walking towards the local preowned ship dealership, figuring I could at least look for the type of craft I wanted to go with my future ship. As I was walking Ventress tackled me to the ground with a crazy glint in her eyes and says, "You are such a strong Sith," she traced her hands along my chest going down to my waist as she adds, "Perhaps you can show me how strong you can be?" At that moment I was tempted by the Dathamiran Female but I knew that this could not go on.

"I am sorry," I said hopping to let her down easy, "But I can't," the look of anger on her face morphed into crazy laughter as she used the force to slam me into multiple trees. When I recover I dodged her light sabres as she laughed. I start to speak, "Wait, seriously it would never work, but I can't tell you why." That was then I was thrown with the force and landed on a preowned Spaceship unconscious. Which probably saved me.

Present-With Junk Wolf-Just before he reached the system he was meeting Ventress.

"All because I can't get to close to anyone," Junk Wolf, now in his armour, muttered to himself as he flew through space, towards the lone light cruiser. He looks at the damaged cruiser and sighs while saying, "Let's get this over with."

He flies into the light cruiser with his ship and reveals himself in full armour he exited the Wolf Blade as he was surrounded by battle droids. Junk Wolf then jumped down as Accel's arm blocked him while holding his light sabre. Junk Wolf slaps his head as he says, "Thank you Accel."

Junk Wolf then went through the ship until he had to take an elevator to the bridge to find Ventress finishing receiving order from Darth Sidious, who spots him and hangs up as Ventress turned to Junk Wolf and scowled before turning away from him in anger. The holopad then went off, that when answered revealed Count Dooku who after spotting Junk Wolf sighs and says, "Ventress, Junk Wolf will be aiding you in your mission."

Junk Wolf then zoned out as Ventress informed Dooku about her plan to 'rescue' Nute Gunray. Though when he hears Ventress speaking of killing the entire crew he speaks, "If you kill the crew, we will have to deal with Republic forces chasing after us. Disable the ship we can cause the Republic to focus on recovery."

Ventress growls but Dooku nods and says, "So they waste time and resources," Dooku stroked his beard and adds, "Very well, Ventress kill the majority of the crew and clones while Junk Wolf disables the ship. Do not fail me."

Dooku cancelled the transmission before Junk Wolf asks, "So anything I should know before the mission?"

Ventress just gave him the cold shoulder and walked off the bridge as she says, "Get me an hour before the start of the mission," to a couple of battle droids guarding the elevators.

Junk Wolf sighs as the cruiser enters HyperSpace while muttering, "This is so slow!" ending with a shout as his body slumped lightly at the idea that It would literally take two hours to reach the Ambush zone then they were going to have to wait a maximum of a day to spring the trap.

Ahsoka's Ship-The Dumbluck-Four hours later Rodia orbit-Lower Hanger air lock

Ahsoka leaned on the wall next to the airlock while she waited for the Republic Transport to dock. She had given orders to the clone captain, explaining that once the ship was docked and locked in they were to make way to Corasant at best speed. Ahsoka was pretty much waiting for about half an hour at this point before the doors opened to reveal Master Luminara, Captains Emerald and Green, being followed by Nute Gunray as he was surrounded by Senate Commandoes in their faded dark blue centurion styled armour.

"Senate Commandos?" Ahsoka question silently before greeting Master Luminara, "Welcome aboard," only to be interrupted.

"Thank you youngling," Nute Gunray spoke in arrogance, "I expect fine dining and-"

"Master Luminara, I have ordered the captain to make best speed to Coresant and the prisoner will be placed in our smallest cell," Ahsoka interrupts the prisoner causing the two Clone Captains to chuckle before Ahsoka added, "Though none of the closets could be adjusted to not open from the inside."

"The nerve of," Nute Gunray was interrupted again.

"Unfortunately due to a lack of supplies the prisoner will be going hungry," Ahsoka spoke but before Nute Gunray could speak she adds, "Though if the prisoner keeps speaking, the heating in his cell will suddenly suffer a melted hole."

Nute Gunray was about to speak before he shut up as Ahsoka's hand rested on her light sabre. Master Luminara then spoke, "Greetings Padawan Tano, I am impressed with how you handled that situation," The two Jedi, two Clone Captains, Commandoes and prisoner walked through the ship as Luminara spoke, "I wish to speak with you about your encounters with the Sith Junk Wolf."

"Sith? Ha, like that goody good would be a Sith," Nute Gunray mocked, "That reclusive inventor, not only does he create new tech that makes our droids look redundant, he could buy the entire Seperatist armies and fleets and still have enough to buy a hundred planets! What does he do with it, buys a broken ship and hordes his money."

That caused the two Jedi to stop moving at this information, before turning to Nute Gunray and Ahsoka asks, "You willing gave us that information without bribes or threats?"

Gunray simply says, "You don't know? There is a bounty on his head large enough to buy multiple planets of Kaiba Crystals and then buy an army."

Luminara was the first to ask, "Then why haven't you done such a thing?"

Gunray growls and says, "He is a Phantom against tracking. Bounty Hunters have hunted him, by the time someone reaches his last known location he would at the other end of known space, within a day. That bastard refuses to release how he does it."

The rest of the walk was just Gunray speaking of his hatred for Junk Wolf which left Ahsoka and Master Luminara with questions. They locked Gunray into his cell and let Luminara's Captains handle the securing the prisoner as the two went to the elevator to get to the bridge giving them time to speak.

Ahsoka asks the wise Jedi, "The fight you had with Junk Wolf, what happened?"

Luminara stamped on the feelings of anger before she answered, "He humiliated me in front of my troops and I have a sneaking suspicion that the incident was recorded."

"Well everything up till a minute before you serendered, visuals failed," Ahsoka answered.

Luminara sighed before saying, "He straight up humiliated me and he basically broke my calm connection to the Force. Every time I tried to use the force to predict his moves but-"

Ahsoka answered, "It was like he was never there," Luminara nods while Ahsoka adds, "Like a void in the Force that is only noticeable if he was right in front of you."

"Yes, but that is impossible, the only living things that have no Force signature is," Luminara paused and before finishing, "The living dead." Ahsoka was confused by the Master's words as Luminara added, "A myth in the oldest text in the Jedi Archive, and in some Sith texts, an clan of creatures of grotesque physical deformities of immense power."

"I have never heard of such a thing," Ahsoka mentioned.

"That is because it is sealed in the Holocron Vault at the temple," Luminara answered before the elevator starts to open, "We must get back on task."

"Yes master," Ahsoka replied. The two Jedi enter the bridge just before the ship went into Hyperspace.

Seperatist Ambush Sight-That moment

The Seperatist finished releasing large boulders in the path of the Rupublic Cruiser with Junk Wolf watching, as the droids jettisoned droid sized boulders. Junk Wolf sighed again even the battle droids loosing count of the number of times he had sighed.

Junk Wolf looked out the front window and thinks on the simple plan, many fail to realise that travelling at hyperspeed a tiny rock floating through space can smash through an unshielded craft, but having larger rocks in the thousands will cause a star destroyer size craft to stop long enough for the little ambush, the only issue is that the lane will be unusable until the path was cleared.

Junk Wolf tapped his foot as he continued to wait, when Ventress entered the bridge and says to the battle droid captain, "Have the fighters ready to launch, the Republic Cruiser will arrive in the hour."

"Good," Junk Wolf jokes, "I was getting bored," Ventress just ignored him as he sighs before adding, "You have been giving me the silent treatment for two years, do you really think that is healthy?"

Ventress just ignored him as she went to the hanger, with Junk Wolf following behind. Once they reach the hanger Ventress gave orders to the droid crew, "Once the boarding craft are jettisoned, head to the extraction coordinates."

With that Ventress entered the boarding craft, which closed shut in front of Junk Wolf before he could enter, forcing him to take another craft that was really cramped with the fifty heavy battle droids. Junk Wolf was pressed against the door of the boarding craft as the communicator of one of the battle droids went off.

"When we board the ship slowly make your way towards the brig," Ventress spoke before hanging up before Junk Wolf could speak.

Junk Wolf sighs before saying, "Guess I will just have to make my own plan. Am I right?" his question to the droids were left unanswered before he tapped his arm to reveal a holographic computer terminal that wrapped around his arm with the blue prints of a republic cruiser as a disk appeared through the left arm of Junk Wolf's armour. As he appears to program the hologram the disk had a series of red lights turn green around the circumference before five lights flashed on around the middle causing him to nod and to smile under his helmet. He then looked to his crono timer and sighs as he still had to wait fifty nine minutes until the mission start.

Republic Cruiser-The Resolute-That moment

Anikin Skywalker walked back and forth in his cruiser's main bridge as Admiral Yularen walked forward with a terminal and says, "General, it appears we will need to take a detour to Rodia," Skywalker took the terminal from the Admiral as he adds, "Apparently intelligence believe that we will be targeted en route to Rodia, We have been ordered to add three parsecs."

Skywalker sighs and says, "But it would take five parsecs to reach Ahsoka if she is attacked," he takes a deep breath and adds, "We will have to hope that they can handle an attack," he then focuses on the void outside the main window of the bridge.

Ahsoka's Cruiser-Brig-thirty minutes later

Ahsoka was silent as Master Luminara questioned Nute Gunray on who his boss is, only to receive more information about Junk Wolf that they started to suspect was untrue, "Junk Wolf has been the cause of many planetary occupations and atrocities."

Ahsoka then shouts, "We have been asking you, 'Who is your boss?' not whatever you can think of from the top of your head."

Nute Gunray then shouts, "It is the truth!"

Ahsoka then argues, "That is what you said ten minutes ago when I call you out when we asked you which planets and where the atrocities occurred. Instead of answering, you went and started repeating what you already said."

Nute Gunray then childishly argued, "Doesn't mean its not true."

Master Luminara then spoke, "We would believe you, if you give us proof."

Nute Gunray just shouts, "It's the truth I tell you, Junk Wolf is a monster!"

Ahsoka growls before jumping on the table and says, "WHAT you going to say next, blame Junk Wolf for Naboo? Oh how about the death of Jedi from a thousand years ago," She then draws her light sabre and adds while pointing it at Nute Gunray's throat, "We want information on your boss, not what we fully know is the person you hate the most!"

"Padawan," Master Luminara pulls Ahsoka away with the force, "Fear is not the weapon of the Jedi."

"I know, It's just that we have been asking the one question since we started this interrogation," Ahsoka answered before adding, "Seriously we just want answers about the Sith. Not Junk Wolf at this moment."

Nute Gunray calmed down from his fear and says, "Perhaps we can refocus on the matters at hand." The Master and Padawan duo looked to one another before focusing on the prisoner. "I need to know that the Republic can protect me?"

Master Luminara was about to answer when the battle cruiser shook from collisions, and her communicator goes off, "General, we have been forced out of hyperspace and we have several dozen Seperatist Boarding craft."

The two Jedi exit the cell and Master Luminara locked the cell door and relays orders, "Have all troops defend all key points of the Ship, any that can be spared send to the hanger bay."

Ahsoka adds, "Have then focus on guard key systems closer to the outer hull, the corridors near the gun placements. The hanger would also be their best target if they want Gunray alive."

Master Luminara nods and repeats what Ahsoka said before speaking, "Padawan you stay here and protect Gunray."

"Like I need protection, my compatriots are clearly here to free me," Gunray spoke with courage.

"Or they are here to silence you," Ahsoka taunted scaring Gunray as Master Luminara exited the brig leaving Captain Emerald with the Padawan.

Main Hanger-a short time later

The boarding crafts pierce the Republic Cruiser with the majority in the main hanger. Ventress' craft stabbed through the side wall of the hanger while Junk Wolf's pierced the ceiling and had him fall out as soon as the crafts door opened. Then the heavy battledroids dropped out and landed on him. For the next ten minutes Junk Wolf lied there is pain as the battle droids captured the main hanger.

When he did sit up it was to see Ventress killing a clone before he could message his superiors. Junk Wolf stands and heads towards Ventress who with a Republic Communicator jumped into the vents. Junk Wolf sighs before walking towards the control room, used to coordinate fighters and other spacecrafts exiting and entering the hanger. Junk Wolf sighs after finding the room empty and most of the computers deactivated before saying aloud, "Talk about a security breach waiting to happen," he activated the main terminal and placed the disk on the main terminal and says, "Not even firewalls or passwords. I mean really," he fiddled with his gauntlet computer the computers flashed green he then moved a vertical slider causing all the lights to dim and brighten repeatedly before returning the lights to normal, then changed the gravity slightly before undoing the change.

Junk Wolf nods to himself and opens the vent hatch and makes his way towards the brig while asking himself, "Why does everyone build everything with vents that even a Hutt could sneak in with?"

With Ventress-Engine Room

As Ventress listened to the Republic fores' orders with her stolen republic communicator. She smirks as the battle continued in other sections of the ship, nowhere near her current position. She opened the vent slightly as she avoided the light beams from an engineering droid. Using the force to keep the vent closed as she exited and jumped around the room planting low yield explosives.

Eventually she finished placing the bombs and returned to the vent as two clones had checked the room.

With Master Luminara Unduli-Corridor leading to the main hanger.

Master Luminara deflected bolts of red plasma back to their source as she continued to defend the ship with the clones and after ten minutes the droids were defeated, but almost all of the clone soldiers had fallen with many more wounded. Master Luminara turned to Captain Emerald as he rubs his shoulder from a stray bolt and says, "Captain have those wounded secured and able body clones patrol the ship for intruders."

Captain Emerald nods before Master Luminara runs back to the elevators.

The Brig

Ahsoka paced as she waited, while the commander of the Senate Commandoes spoke, "A good soldier follows orders but knows when to do the right thing."

Ahsoka exhaled and says, "Well I know that, but really it's just a case of boredom," she taps her terminal on her belt before pulling her arm away and adding, "I mean, I have been in a couple battles and so far I prefer to be at the front."

Captain Green then adds, "Well, it's understandable, us clones hate it the most when our brothers are fighting while being held back."

Ahsoka nods before hearing the muffled sound of two light sabres above, before she force pushed to senate commandoes back as Ventress cuts her way through the roof above the brig control panels. Ventress dropped down and cuts down three Senate Commandoes before they could dodge the attack. The remaining stood back while Ahsoka stood between the Sith Assassin and Gunray's cell. Ventress glares at the young Padawan before loud shouting was heard, "Really, what is with these people, security is crap and these vents can have Grevious' fat ass."

Junk Wolf then drops down to see the Senate Commandoes aiming at him before he sighs and says, "You have five seconds to drop your weapons, before everything goes upside down," The commandoes just aim for his face before Junk Wolf brought up the hologram of the cruiser above his left wrist and press on circle and flipping the hologram upside down causing everyone else to fall up to the roof while Junk Wolf whistled and walked to Gunray's cell. When everyone recovered he undid the change in gravity, causing everyone but Ventress and Ahsoka to land on their butts, but everyone to glare at Junk Wolf.

Junk Wolf leaned next to the cell in a very casual pose as he checks his fingers as Nute Gunray spoke, "Hurry up and get me out of here!"

Junk Wolf was silent before saying, "Well there is one small matter," he pulled out a piece of paper and says, "From the poker game you owe me a planet, and a space station."

"What!" Gunray shouts, "I only owe you a shuttle!"

"That was before interest, the rescue and the data you bought from Grevious," You could feel the glare from under Junk Wolf's helmet.

"Stole?" Ahsoka questioned before defending herself from Ventress, who managed to kick her back towards that main controls of the brig.

Ventress reached the cell with a force enhanced sprint before then opening the cell and pulling Gunray out of the cell before tripping Ahsoka into the cell, locking her in the room. Gunray laughs and taunts Ahsoka before she growls and slashes the energy door, scaring the former prisoner.

Junk Wolf sighs as he continues to lean on the wall next to Ahsoka's cell to say, "Can't a guy just taunt a ass, Am I right?" Ahsoka just glared at Junk Wolf before he rubbed his jaw and asks, "Why haven't you cut your way out?"

Ahsoka looked at him like he was stupid before looking at the door frame and growls before stabbing the wall around the energy door and successfully piercing the wall of the cell.

Junk Wolf walked away towards Ventress as the Sith Assassin deflected bolts of energy before Master Luminara exited the elevator one hand on her head, a light green blush as she glares at Junk Wolf.

Junk Wolf looks between the three females and sighs, "Great, all three women I have pissed off in my life are here," it was at that point Luminara released Ahsoka, who attacked Junk Wolf only for him to catch her wrist, "Seriously it's like this was stagged."

No one questioned him as this was 'clearly' his crazy talk that he 'constantly' speaks. Ahsoka kicked Junk Wolf's side to release herself from his grip before getting to Ventress, as Nute Gunray was caught by a clone faking death. Ventress and Junk Wolf reached the elevators when Ventress activated the explosives she planted shaking the entire ship.

Ventress jumped down the elevator tube and was quickly followed by a shouting Junk Wolf, "DID YOU SERIOUSLY BLOW UP THE SHIP!?"

"Let's get them," Ahsoka shouts as she was about to jump down the shaft only to be stopped by Master Luminara who saved her from a speeding elevator, "Thank you," Ahsoka spoke in embarrassment.

"Stay here, I will deal with Sith," Luminara spoke then adds as Ahsoka was about to argue, "I can handle the Sith, you guard Gunray until I return," before jumping down the elevator.

With Junk Wolf and Ventress-Engine room.

Junk Wolf messed with his wrist terminal examining the ship blue prints, covered in red sploshes. He messed with a couple dials and growls before saying, "You destroyed most of the ship systems," he glares at Ventress, "If you wanted a distraction, you could have just asked me."

Ventress glared at Junk Wolf as he paced back and forth in anger, she reached for her light sabre before pouncing and stabbing Junk Wolf in the back. He struggled to stand as his suit sparked with red energy before fading to reveal Junk Wolf's casual attire, his grey hair covering his face as the smoke coming from his back. Ventress reached down an took his belt and says the first words she has spoken in three years, "Nothing personal, Dooku will reward me when I give him your ultimate weapon." Junk Wolf grunts as he tries to stand as Ventress goes to end him, "This is for your betrayal," she swings down her light sabres only for a green blade to stop her.

Master Luminara spoke, "Sith Betrays Sith, I would say I was shocked but clearly, it is well known that even Sith Assassins would betray their masters if given the chance."

Ventress growls and says, "Well I was going to give him everything only for him to betray me!" she then laughs like a maniac as the two skilled force users began to fight.

Junk Wolf groans and asks, "Why do women hate me?" he was silent for a second before adding, "Oh yeah, they are crazy," the teenager then groans again as green blood dripped from his stomach.

With Ahsoka.

Ahsoka ran down the hallway to the engine room, after listening to last remaining Senate Commando, she chose to help Master Luminara. She ran down the hall to find Master Luminara about to be struck down and intervened. Ventress spoke, "So Skywalker's pet wants to play," she began to attack before Ahsoka used the force to push the Sith back.

Ahsoka then uses her lightsabre to cut Master Luminara free from the pipe pinning her to the ground. Ahsoka speaks, "I know, I was meant to guard the prisoner."

Master Luminara interjected with, "I would have been one with the Force if you had not, we need to take down Ventress."

Ventress Jumped down with both of her light sabres causing both Ahsoka and Master Luminara to block the Sith's downward swing. Ventress laughed hysterically while Ahsoka notices Junk Wolf's belt around Ventress' waist, before being kicked in the stomach. Ahsoka groaned as Master Luminara was kicked in the leg that had been pinned under the pipe before Ventress went to kill Ahsoka only for her arm to stuck unable to move, "I would like my belt back," at this point Ahsoka was witness to Junk Wolf's face to see three fangs tattoos that as they got to the middle of the face they were smaller, along with two upward fangs that extended from his mouth.

'He is barely older than me,' Ahsoka thought before freaking out as Junk Wolf's concealed left arm then combusts into flames revealing a metal arm intact from the light sabre, while the flames travel up his arm before extinguishing at the shoulder. Junk Wolf reached down and took the belt before kicking Ventress back as she tried to slash him.

"This is mine," Junk Wolf held up the belt which still held the control box.

That was when Master Luminara kicked Junk Wolf in the side and taking the belt from him before Ventress attacked, "Throw me the belt!" Ahsoka shouts and Luminara complied.

Junk Wolf avoided Ventress' attempt to remove his head before chasing after Ahsoka while shouting, "Give it back!" but made no attempt to attack the Jedi Padawan. Junk Wolf's childish shouting caused Ahsoka to struggle to hold in a laugh, though she was forced to laugh when Junk Wolf appeared to trip on his own feet. Ahsoka snorts in amusement but is forced to dodge Ventress' two lightsabres Master Luminara reached them and went to apprehend Junk Wolf and Ventress.

Junk Wolf stood before bending over to avoid Ventress attacking him again causing him to shout, "You stabbed me in the back and steal my stuff," he then had a look of realisation as he adds, "Wait is this about you coming on to me!? I was barely a teenager! Hell I barely reached Puberty!"

Ahsoka was the first to shout, "Why do I see that happening?" Ventress went to attack the young padawan while stealing the belt back. Master Luminara attacked Ventress, before a metal rock was kicked into Ventress' face causing her to drop the belt that Junk Wolf took.

Junk Wolf jumps back and his right leg collapsed causing him pain as he says, "Damn, I haven't healed yet," he touched his stomach before looking at his fingers to reveal green blood that turned to dust and his fang 'tattoos' to increase in size slowly before stopping.

Ventress jumps at him with a downward swing forcing him to roll out of the way, and kicking another chunk of metal at Ventress. Ventress then speaks, "I WILL DESTROY YOU AND GIVE DOOKU YOUR ARMOUR AS A TROPHY!"

"Really, That is funny, considering Dooku already knows about my armour and what can really do," Junk Wolf taunts as he steps slowly to the side so that his back was pointing at a wall covered in pipes. "I mean, finding someone to wear the thing is going to be a challenge. I mean not just anyone can wear it." Ventress then managed to slice Junk Wolf's right arm causing him to groan in pain as his shirt was cut below the elbow and him to say, "Can you stop trying to dismember me," he shakes his right arm in pain only revealing a grey mark along where Ventress slashed, "I mean all you are doing is making it harder to control finer movement control."

Ventress was shocked before being kicked across the room while Junk Wolf fell over from losing his balance. Master Luminara went to fight Ventress while Ahsoka placed her lightsabre against Junk Wolf's throat and asks, "What is the deal with the belt?"

Junk decided to be stubborn and says, "None of your business, That would be like me asking for your lightsabre, right?" and then with his left mechanical hand he knocks her lightsabre out of the way.

"Okay then," Ahsoka steps back before adding, "Why is your left hand able to touch a light sabre's blade?"

Junk Wolf looked at her strangely as she noticed the marks on his face seem to shift in detail as he answers, "What you think that there is no materials that remain unaffected by the superheated plasma your weapon creates."

Ahsoka was confused while Junk Wolf stared at her before time seemed to slow down and his eyes widen and he pushes Ahsoka out of the way and faces the metal pipe spear that stabbed into his right shoulder causing him to scream in pain and be launched back into a wall. His scream of pain was heard with the crazy laughter from Ventress. Ventress got past Master Luminara sped forward to retrieve the dropped belt only to have Ahsoka beat her to it, and put the belt on. Ahsoka then got ready to fight only for the entire ship to shake violently.

Master Luminara's communicator beep and the clone captain's voice spoke, "General, the ship has drifted into a decaying orbit over a local planet. The Engines will not respond."

Luminara was forced to defend herself as Ventress attacked and threw another Explosive towards the control panels located in the room. Once the system were destroyed Ventress laughed and says, "Well looks like someone broke the auxiliary controls for you ship, after someone broke the connections to the main control room. Who would do that?" Ventress' taunting was directed towards Ahsoka, but was truly focused on Junk Wolf as he opened one eye in pain. "A pity the pathetic life forms on the planet will be killed when the ship crashes," She threw another bomb on the ground before jumping through a vent and rocketing away.

Junk Wolf breathed deeply and groaned in pain from a second piece of metal that lodged itself in his stomach. Junk Wolf screamed in pain while Master Luminara spoke, "Stay with the prisoner, I am heading to the bridge." Ahsoka nodded as Luminara left.

With Luminara

As she was running through the ship she was contacted by Captain Green, "General, Gunray was freed, The Commander of the Senate Commandoes killed his fellows before getting past me to escape with Gunray. I am sorry General, Gunray surprised me."

Luminara growled before speaking to the bridge, "Captain we need to regain control of the ship, Do not let any escape pods, detach," the entire craft shook causing her to sigh and say, "Or the Transport in the lower hanger to detach. I am on my way there."

With Ahsoka

Junk Wolf groans and says, "Can you please just cut this stupid pipe," while tugging on the pipe in his shoulder. He had already pulled out the metal lodged in his body.

Ahsoka was silent before saying, "You would just escape," though she felt guilty knowing this could be considered wrong.

Junk Wolf was silent before sighing to say, "This is going to hurt," before grabbing the pipe and began pulling himself forward along the pipe with slow progress.

Ahsoka then stopped him as she says, "Are you crazy?!"

"Well let's see," Junk Wolf started, "I have had a target on my back since I rebuilt that armour. I faked my death to gain a freedom that I would never have and frankly if I bought a planet, I could buy another ten. All I want to do is see the Universe but I will do it my way," he pulls himself forward until he falls off the pipe and breathed deeply on his hands and knees in pain before standing, "But first thing first," he walked to the broken control board before breaking a cover on his robot hand to reveal the circuitry inside says, "The sublight engines are dead," he checked the systems on the Republic cruiser and says, "Shields down, most secondary systems are broken or dead, the nav system working, the hyperdrive?" He smirks and says, "That would work," he attached cables from his robot hand attached to the broken terminal as the entire ship began to heat up.

"What are you doing," Ahsoka questioned in disbelief.

"Do you know that in the past many space craft did not have physical sublight engines?" Junk Wolf questioned.

With Master Luminara

Master Luminara reached the bridge and sees the orange tinge of atmospheric entry. Luminara shouts, "What is our statis?!"

The clone captain speaks, "Everything is down except Navigation, which indicates that we are about to collide with a pre-space fairing city and we have nothing to stop our decent."

It was then that a clone helmsman started to panic, "The HYPERDRIVE IS ACTIATING! IT WONT SHUT DOWN!" The ship shook for a second before the orange tint on the windows turned blue and instead of being shot through the planet the entire ship levelled off and began to travel over the city and slowly reached a large empty field large enough to land the cruiser. The same clone helmsman spoke, "The hyperdrive is powering down. It appears we are seeing activity from that city we flew over."

Master Luminara spoke, "Damn, have all the bulkheads sealed and contact Skywalkers fleet and I need a security team sent to the engineering."

It was at that moment Ahsoka contacted the bridge, "Send a medical team to engineering."

With Ahsoka

Ahsoka was crouched next to Junk Wolf, who had collapsed next to the control panel with green blood leaking from his mouth that turned to dust before hitting the deck below him. Ahsoka spoke, "Junk Wolf collapsed after saving the ship." She looks at his face revealing four fangs and small triangles above his eyebrows.

:End of Chapter Six:

(So another chapter written, another long wait completed and the start of another wait. With this Junk Wolf is now the prisoner of the Republic, Ahsoka has his belt and Ventress is into young boys.

What could possibly happen next? Why did Junk Wolf save those lives on the planet? Why refuse to slaughter the crew? These questions are left for either your imagination or later in the story.

So UNTIL NEXT TIME...BEWARE THE WRAITH!)
