Chapter ten.

"I got eyes on the tower," 

The navigation tower was to be destroyed. This stopped all communication between the Destroyers and effectively letting the Rebels create a destress signal to get more help.

"Got you covered," Poe responded to Finn, shooting down the surrounding TIE fighters as Finn and his team headed down to the tower. 

"The navigation tower has been deactivated," 

Poe cursed as someone else replies through comms, "They have figured out what we are doing." 

"Retreat all ground forces," Poe commands, pulling up the x-wing inches from the ground and letting the following TIE fighters crash into the planet. 

"They have relocated the navigation system," Finn says, looking at the main Destroyer, "Its on that."

"How do you know?"

"A feeling."

Aurora jumps first, arms wrapping around the thick chain link before Ben follows landing with a grunt. The two climb down, rushing down the dark corridors. Aurora ignites her lightsabre, breaking it in half to throw one behind them once they had turned the corner, killing two guards then using the force to bring it back to her as Ben deflects a shot right back at the other guard. Rounding the last corner, the two stop as three guards walk towards them, looking over their shoulder, another three come from behind them all holding different weaponry. 

"A blaster?" Aurora tilts her head with a teasing smile as the guards circle them, "Are you flirting with me?" 

Ben can't help but chuckle, the two stood back to back, lightsabres ignited at their sides. Ben uses the force to send one flying back as Aurora flips over the guards opposite her, spinning the lightsabre in her hands, she deflects two blasts before kicking one back as her lightsabre scrapes up the others chest. Ben spins on his heel, dragging the lightsabre across the knees of one of the guards. Aurora uses the force to block a blast, the red beam sitting between herself and the guard, with the flick of her wrist, she sends the blast through the head of the guard and one behind them. Ben and Aurora stand side by side, facing the last guard, who drops their weapon and starts running in the opposite direction. 

"Coward!" Aurora shouts at him making Ben chuckle before he uses the force to send the guard flying.

Poe watched as the fleet around him fell. His piolets, his friends, his family all falling around him. He squeezed his eyes shut before looking back up at it all; the explosions, the screams, the fall of the light side.
