"That's enough, Antaeus." Tarom's voice rang out.
"Tarom, no! Get out of here!" I exclaimed.
"I'm not leaving you, Storm." Tarom protested.
Antaeus furrowed his brows. "And who are you?"
"Her brother." Tarom replied.
Once Tarom lunged towards Antaeus, his concentration was broken, allowing me to fall to the ground. I watched as Tarom swung his lightsaber, clashing his purple blade against Antaeus' red blade. As they fought on, I noticed Antaeus' attacks becoming quicker and more aggressive. I used all my strength, trying to climb up from the ground, but I was still weak from Antaeus draining me of my power.
I was forced to watch as Antaeus raised a hand towards Tarom, sending a blue blast of energy at his face. Tarom was then thrown back against one of the walls. I weakly stretched out a hand, reaching out to the Force. However, Antaeus saw what I was doing, and he lifted me up in the air. I let out a gasp as I felt my neck tightening. I kicked my legs around as it began more difficult for me to breathe. Tarom noticing that I was in trouble, quickly scrambled up to his feet, and he rushed towards Antaeus. But Antaeus could see Tarom heading towards him, so he dropped me before spinning around to face Tarom. Tarom managed to block Antaeus' attack, but it was short-lived. Antaeus' attacks grew more aggressive that Tarom struggled to keep up. I was forced to watch as Antaeus impaled his blade in Tarom's stomach. My eyes widened in horror. "No!"
I watched as Tarom collapsed onto the ground. My heart clenched. My snapped back towards Antaeus. I clenched my fists as I rose from the ground. In a matter of seconds, my entire body was engulfed in blue flames, even my eyes were glowing blue. Sensing his fear, Antaeus fired many blasts of blue energy towards me. I extended out my hands, absorbing all the energy at once. Antaeus' eyes widened as his fear grew. He then shouted out. "Garrett!"
At that moment, a blue ball of energy appeared around Antaeus and Garrett emerged. He wore a grin on his face. "Wow, Viky, you killed her already?"
Antaeus hesitated. "...Not exactly."
Garrett then turned to see me. "Oh shit! Time to go!"
I used all my power and strength that I had left, firing huge beams of blue energy towards them. However before I could hit them, both of them vanished, no doubt teleporting back to the Zephyr. The beams ended up hitting the wall behind where the once stood, destroying nearly the entire wall. I grimaced. I'll have to explain this to the team later. Remembering that Tarom was on the ground, I quickly rushed over towards him. Tears formed in my eyes as I saw a pool of orange red blood surround Tarom. Part of his face was charred from the blast that he was hit with.
"Tarom, stay with me." I pleaded.
"...Did you get them?" He croaked out.
"No, I couldn't...he escaped with Garrett." I explained.
"Get him for me." He urged.
I nodded vigorously. "Of course."
"And tell Gida that I love her and our children very much." Tarom mentioned, letting out a cough.
"You can tell her that yourself. We just have to get you to Alotren. Everything will be fine." I assured him.
"You and I both know that can't happen. If Alotren tries to heal me, he will die in my place. I am beyond saving. I can't let that happen." Tarom argued.
"I'm not letting you die." I protested. "You're like a brother to me, Tarom."
I could feel him slipping away from the Force. He reached out a hand towards me and I quickly grabbed his hand. Tears streamed down my cheeks. "Don't go, Tarom. You can't leave us..."
