The Light and the Dark - A Star Wars Story

Chapter 30

The whole hangar of the Star Destroyer was on fire. Everyone was either knocked unconscious or dead. Alinah was the first to wake up, seeing her three friends unconscious. She sighed in relief when she realized that they were alive. She crawled over to Rose first, shaking her awake.

"Rose! You okay?" Alinah asked her, putting a hand on her shoulder.

"I'm okay!" Rose replied.

"Good," Alinah said. "I'll wake Kaydel and Finn up. You go find a shuttle or escape pod that we can use to get to the Resistance!"

"Got it!" Rose said, getting up to find their escape.

Alinah then crawled over to Finn and Kaydel. She shook both of them, trying to wake them up. Kaydel woke up and then Finn did, both gasping as they did so. Alinah smiled when she saw that they were okay, but she needed to help them up.

"Alinah!" Rose called out, running over to them. "There's a shuttle back that way! We got to go!"

Rose and Alinah helped Finn and Kaydel up and they began running to the shuttle. Debris was falling as fire spread around the hangar. Whatever happened had done a lot of damage to the Supremacy. No Stormtroopers were showing up, so the four hoped that it would stay that way.

As they got halfway to the shuttle, they all stopped. Phasma was approaching out of the flames with many Stormtroopers by her side. Finn and Alinah both reached for their lightsabers, getting ready for a fight. They knew that this would be a fight to the death.

"TRAITORS!" Phasma shouted as she held up her blaster. Before she could fire, an AT-ST started firing at her and the Stormtroopers. "What?!" She exclaimed, aiming at the AT-ST.

The AT-ST shot at many of the Stormtroopers, killing them and sending them flying back. They tried to fight back, but it was no use. The head of the AT-ST lifted off to reveal BB-8 inside. He had hacked into the machine and was using it to aide his friends. Finn, Alinah, Kaydel, and Rose exchanged glances, surprised that the little droid could do that.

A laser blast interrupted their exchange as they all ducked out of the way. Rose and Kaydel went behind some cover as Finn and Alinah both ignited their lightsabers.

"FINN! ALINAH!" Rose cried out, knowing that they were about to fight Phasma. She and Kaydel tried shooting at Phasma, but her armor was bulletproof. The Stormtroopers shot back at them, keeping them from helping Finn and Alinah. Rose and Kaydel had no choice but to stay covered.

Phasma took out a spear and spun it around. Finn and Alinah exchanged glances before glaring at the Stormtrooper. They charged towards her, yelling as they did so. Along the way, they stabbed some Stormtroopers that tried to fight them. The two then swung their blue blades at Phasma, but she blocked their every move. They pressed their blades against her spear, doing what they could to keep her from killing them.

"You are a bug in the system!" Phasma sneered.

"Let's go, chrome-dome!" Finn said, breaking off from their block. Phasma tried to swing at his head, but he ducked just in time. Alinah swung at her, but was blocked. Phasma was advancing towards them, making Finn and Alinah back up during their fight. Phasma was at the offense while Finn and Alinah had to defend.

"Come on!" Finn yelled, trying to make Phasma mad. It worked as she swung at his neck, but he managed to move out of the way.

"Is that all you got?!" Alinah yelled, swinging at Phasma. She and Finn were once again caught in a stance with her again. Phasma then broke the stance and swung at them, causing for them to fall to the ground. The impact made Finn let go of his lightsaber and it fell into a hole. He was now defenseless against Phasma.
