Eye Of The Needle (Star Wars)

Chapter 54: Whose Side Are You On?

~Naexle's/Storm's P.O.V.~

It began to rain as I rejoined Alto, Sev'rance, Tol, and the rest of our troops. I rejoined them when they were less than 100 klicks away from the Shelter Base, where the Jedi, the Republic, and the rest of the Loyalists troops had retreated to. After going over a plan, we marched to the base. The base was giant base that was heavily guarded in the front. A laser gate separated us from the enemy, stretching all the way to two towers on either side. Alto brought forth the Nationalists soldiers that carried missile launchers. I raised my hand. 

"Hold on. This is a laser gate, it's strong enough to withstand a lightsaber. And if anything should touch it, then it will be vaporized." I mentioned.

"Then what do you suggest, Supreme Commander?" Alto inquired, sounding irritated. 

I scanned the base, finding the generators responsible for the laser gate by the gate on their side. A smile grew on my face. "I know exactly what to do, Alto. When I raise the generators, order your men to fire them all down. Understood?"

I didn't wait for a response. I focused on the generators before lifting them up in the air. Before the Republic forces could do anything, our soldiers fired down each one of the generators, deactivating the laser gate. Once the gate was down, the Republic and the remains of the Loyalist troops began firing blasts at us.

"Soldiers, fire your missile launchers now!" I ordered.

At my command, the soldiers with middle launchers fired at the base, destroying some of base. I led the others as I charged forth into the base, slicing down all those in my path. It wasn't long until I entered the base. I then heard a familiar voice. "Storm, stop this now."

I turned around to see Ahsoka with her two lightsabers at her side, prepared to fight.

"Storm, this isn't you. What happened?" Ahsoka asked.

"Ahsoka, dear. You have no idea what I'm capable of." I warned.

With that, I ignited both sides of my dual lightsaber. She moved into a defensive stance. I took the opportunity to lunged towards her. Ahsoka deflected my attacks with her green and yellow-green lightsabers. I grew frustrated and allowed my anger to guide my fighting as I swung my lightsaber. Ahsoka dodged my attack, leaping behind me. I whipped around, swinging my lightsaber just in time as she clashed her lightsabers against the two blades of my lightsaber.

I used all my strength to push her back. I combined my strength with the Force, managing to push her back. At that moment, a blast hit the ground between us, sending us both flying back in different directions. I glanced over to see three Republic walkers heading our way. I groaned as I climbed up on feet. My outfit was drenched in mud, yet that was the least of my worries. I wasted no time in contacting Sev'rance and Tol through our comms.

"Tol, Sev'rance, we got three Republic walkers heading towards the base." I mentioned.

"What's the plan, Naexle?" Sev'rance inquired.

"We each take down a Republic walker." I ordered.

"Copy that." Tol replied.

With that, I rushed towards one of the three Republic walkers. I sliced the legs of the walker, causing it to fall over with a huge thud. I then impaled my lightsaber into the top of the walker before barging inside. In one movement, I impaled a Loyalist soldier. I then heard a gruff voice from behind me. "Storm Ca'ana, so we meet again."

I turned around to find myself face to face with Master Sirrus. He had black medium long hair with some facial hair, fair skin, and brown eyes like his cloak. The last time I saw him was before I became a Jedi Shadow.
