Issa P.O.V.

I watch the ongoing battle from the trees as I'm patched up by my bloodline's natural healing factor. Marcus is missing an arm, and leaking a fluid from the wounds in his chassis, and Y/N is running out of energy fast. It's become little more than a war of attrition.

Either one or the other has to fall. It's going to be a close one.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Y/N P.O.V.

I open my hand in a clawed motion, and swipe at the ground, causing six new spikes to burst from the ground, hurtling towards Marcus. He jumps forward, avoiding the spikes, and putting himself directly on my warpath. I split my saber, and toss a half at him. He bats my flying blade aside, leaving himself open to my thrust - or so it seems. He grabs me with the force, and tosses me over his head, causing me to slam into a pillar, falling to the ground.

I get to my feet, still reeling from the previous blow. 

(BD-1) - (Kid! Kid, you alright?!)

(Marcus) - Not so fast.

He uses the force to suspend BD-1, and grabs me with the force. With the way he's holding me, it feels like wires and strings are worming their way into my veins.

Marcus and I had our own unique force abilities that set us apart back in the squad. My Overhaul is practically common knowledge at this point. Marcus was a lot more secretive about his.

'Puppetmaster', he called it. He tosses BD-1 a good ways behind me, and directs my arm to the ground, forcibly activating my Overhaul, placing a wall between me and my medic.

I look at the wall, then back at Marcus.

(Y/N) - You thought that was smart?

He grabs me, and tosses me over his head again, putting more distance between me and BD-1.

(Marcus) - Yeah. Because I was hiding something from you. You're not the only one with tricks up his sleeve, o schemer.

...What the fuck does he mean by that?

BD-1 P.O.V.

As I recover from Marcus's throw, I begin to look around the surrounding arena. I'm horrified by what I find.

A glowing red eye with two bulbs shaped like inverted satellites. I thought these guys were decommissioned before the rise of the empire! WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?!
