Meet a real King of the Monsters

Chapter 18: I Am Tired

The Ghost came in low with the Juggernaut burst into the battlefield. The other Rebel forces were already moving up as the Hail Fire droids bombarded the Imperial and Decepticon positions. AT-TEs moved up alongside the AAT-1s, firing into the sieged Stormtrooper lines. It was admittedly hard to tell at the moment if any explosions were doing anything though. The AT-ATs for their part returned fire, blasting at the Rebels as they approached. The closer they got, the more accurate the giant walking death machines would become. With that in mind, the Juggernauts held back. They still had soldiers on board, no sense putting them in more danger than they had to be, Right now, it was probably the safest place to drop off Sabine and Adam.

The back doors of the ship opened up and Sabine looked down at the Juggernaut below. For a bulky behemoth of a war machine, it moved pretty fast. The Mandalorian activated her 'liberated' jetpack, grabbed Adam and rocketed down towards the massive vehicle. They eventually managed to match the speed of the Juggernaut and placed themselves over the main body. Sabine then turned off the pack and let them roll across the top of the vehicle until they stopped.

"I'll provide what support I can from above," Hera contacted them on the Comms. "See you and the others inside the complex."

"Yeah, if the retro army we've cobbled together can get us there," Adam responded sardonically.

The Mandalorian and Bull Faunus scrambled towards the cockpit for the Juggernaut, and Sabine watched the battle unfolding before her. AAT-1s and AT-TEs were pounding the forward positions, but they were taking fire from  the Imperial AT-MPs. Missiles struck one of the old Federation tanks, blowing a hole clean through the armor. Worse yet, the AT-ATs that were still in play were firing on the Rebels sporadically as well. One AT-TE was struck in the side and set on fire. Luckily, some of the Raider starfighters managed to force the giant walker's attention away from the ground troops. That wouldn't last long though, unless they took those giant four legged monstrosities out soon.

Thankfully, the smaller ground troops were doing a bit better, harassing the AT-MPs and Stormtroopers moving too close off their way inside the complex. One speeder bike raked several shots on a squad of Troopers as it raced past them. As she watched that though, she saw two TIE Fighters racing towards her from above. Sabine quickly tucked and rolled as a series of green laser bolts strafed the Juggernaut's roof. They luckily missed her and Adam by the slimmest of margins.

Just then, a red and blue blur  raced through them and they exploded. Adam smiled slightly as he made eye contact with Kara briefly before she looked away to the crash site down in the icy tundra. Adam looked down to it as well while Sabine went to do her own thing before shaking his head. He honestly had a belief that the male Kaiju was alive. He survived a black hole, I doubt he survived that just to die here.

However, it wasn't just a Star Destroyer or two that crashed onto him. He was stabbed and a laser beam shot through his midsection.

"Sabine, Adam, you two there?" Kannan Jarrus' voice suddenly asked over the duo's Comms. "What's our damage?"

"The Rebels got hit hard, but they're still pushing," Sabine assured. "Plenty of bucket heads between us and the big hole in the wall though. I'd rather not have to go through all of them by ourselves here."

"We're dropping off the squads we have inside the Juggernauts to reinforce the attack," Ahsoka spoke next. "We'll send Zeb and the Turtles out to join you. We'll be along in a bit."

"What about Ezra?" Adam asked, confused as to why there was no mention of the Jedi Padawan.

"And where is Optimus?" Rachet asked next. 

"Ezra took off for the Star Destroyer crash site," Kannan explained, growling slightly. "He's trying to see if Gojira is still alive. Optimus went after him."
