The 501st Legion, A Star Wars Story

Chapter 11, The Final Act

We finally made it to the Command Center, the plans had to be here somewhere in this room, but right now our main focus was to scrap every single droid in this room. The Tactical Commander Droid ordered the droids in the room to open fire on us. The Commander attempted to call for reinforcements as it began to access the main terminal panel.

"Defend the Command Center, let none escape!" The Commander exclaimed.

The droids opened fire at our direction as it quickly became a firefight in the room, each of us ducked behind control panels and opened fire back at the droids. Some droids were shot and fell, being deactivated, others continued firing attempting to flank our position.

"Agh! I can't move up, there's too many of them!" Jesse said as he crouched down after firing a couple shots.

I tried to push forward to the next terminal panel, but there was too much blaster fire going around, if I made one false move I would've been shot dead. Suddenly, a door slid open in the very back of the room, seeing a Clone Trooper come out with a Z-6 minigun.

"YOU WANT SOME?! COME AND GET SOME!" The Clone screamed as his minigun began to rotate and suddenly blasted a bunch of rounds at the droids.

"GET DOWN!" I yelled as blaster bolts flew everywhere.

Duple peaked out slightly, recognizing the Clone Trooper. "That's...that's Thirty-Ninety!"

Many droids started to turn around, but before they could they were quickly shot down by the incoming blaster bolts from the clones minigun. Taking the chance, Jesse and Tup joined in the fight, blasting at the remaining droids.

"Duple, let's go!" I yelled at Duple, realizing the opening we now had because of Thirty-Ninety.

Duple and I ran down the Command Center, blasting battle droids that were in our way before suddenly a Super Battle Droid stepped in front of the direction we were headed and raised its wrist blaster, spraying shots at us. I grabbed Duple and forced him to take cover as the Super Battle Droid stepped closer and closer to us. The droid was suddenly shot at, as it focused it's attention on the other clones.

"Keep moving, Sharp!" Jesse yelled, firing at the Super Battle Droid.

I nodded and signaled Duple to move up with me, The Tactical Commander Droid ran over to a different room as the door closed behind it. The Commander locked the door from the other side. Duple and I ran up to the door, setting a position in front of it, Duple would then examine the door control panels as I aimed my weapon, guarding the door, firing a few droids that attempted to get closer to our position.

"Get that door unlocked, Duple. We don't got much time." I said, quickly glancing back at Duple.

"Working on it!"

While Duple was working on unlocking the door, Jesse, Tup and Thirty-Ninety continued to fend off the droids, eliminating the rest of the droids in the control room, as the Super Battle Droid from earlier finally fell and sparked. They all ran up to our position, still having their weapons aimed and glancing around the room to make sure it was clear.

"Command Center secure, Sharp, least so far..." Jesse said.

"Heh, droids didn't stand a chance." Tup chuckled.
