Jabba da Butt Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Hey guys, this is my first fan fic so please bear with me if it stinks. I dont know that much about old republic EU so sorry if it has any clashes with EU history. This story takes place about ten years before Kotor 1 and follows the story of a younger Jedi Master Kavar, at this point still a Jedi Knght. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Travels of Kavar Part 1 Never trust a Hutt Nurka the Hutt was having a very good day. He half closed his eyes, smiling in satisfaction. Two smugglers had arrived with their illegal cargo today, a new bounty hunter had been roped into his service, and 6 new dancers and musicians had shown up hoping for a better life in his palace. Oh, they would get a better life all right. Nurka chuckled to himself. The new Twi'lek dancers danced across the room as the Biths played their exotic instruments to Nurkas favorite tune, and bounty hunters chated darkly in the corners. Perhapse the Tawahi sector was not going to be so bad after all. At first Nurka had disliked being ousted and moved halfway across Tatooine. But what did it matter, he was already ruling this sector, setting up smuggling practices, and even starting a new swoop track, (in which he got part of all winnings, of course). "Yes," he muttered in Huttese, this place is going to be all right" Just then, as if just to spoil Nurka's fun, a tall silent Duros walked into the crime lords den. "Ahh, Karuto, you have finnaly come to bring some of your bad news, my loyal scout. What have you found?" the slobbering Hutt spoke in his native tongue. "A Jedi, your greatness, a republic ship landed in the spaceport this morning. Inside was but one passanger. One that I beleive to be a Jedi Knight." Karuto had been roped into the job because he was a natural at remaining unseen, and because he spoke fluent Huttese, which removed the need for a translator. "What are his purposes for being in my domain. Jedi ruin everything. Breaking down every opperation that we set up. Only the Jedi would be stupid enough to mess with a Hutt!" "His reasons for being here are unknown, my lord." Karuto spoke timidly. "But I assure you, I will find out." "No!" shouted Nurka "I do not want to know why he is here! Kill him quickly, before he causes any harm! Send a bounty hunter. One of our finest." Here Nurka turned and gestured towards the opposite wall where many bounty hunters were sharing news. "Oh, and make it look like an accident. I don't want the Jedi Council as an enemy." "Yes sir" said Karuto, walking out of the room. Nurka closed his eyes. This day was going to be more difficult than he had thought. Perhaps it was time for a nap. Pt. 1 of Travels of Kavar To be continued... -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any comments? If you hated it, tell me, if you loved it, even better.

Diego Varen Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Well for a first try it is very good. I think the Mandalorian Wars was ten years before KOTOR, but you could make an excuse saying it was after. Nurka is a very good name for a Hutt, better than what I could come up with. I noticed two spelling errors in this Fic (Your spelling on the left and the correct on the right): Perhapse = Perhaps Survice = Service And tatooine needs a Capital as it is a noun. Good so far and I'm looking foward to more and if you feel bored, feel free to check out my Fanfics, listed below in my Sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabba da Butt Posted July 25, 2006 Author Share Posted July 25, 2006 Thanks for the compliments, and sorry about the spelling errors. I just got rid of them. I checked on the Knights of the old republic website, and the mandalorian wars happened (luckily) 7 years before knights of the old republic. However, I am probably going to have the the mandalorian wars and the Jedi civil war during the story in parts 2 and 3. The next chapter is pretty short and easy to wright so Im going to try to get it out by the end of today, if not, then by tommorow. Oh, and this is off topic, but I started reading your fics, they are both really good, and Im going to have to take the time to read the rest of them sometime. Jabba, thanks for keeping your thread tidy, we do appreciate it. -RH Your welcome =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabba da Butt Posted July 25, 2006 Author Share Posted July 25, 2006 Ok, here it is: Never Trust a Hutt Travels of Kavar Part 1 Ch. 2 Ornic Dakeq shuffled his way through crowds of people. Humans, Grans, Niktos, Jawas, Duros, Weequay, droids (of various shapes and sizes), Humans, Dewbacks, Rontos, and even a few things that Ornic didn't recognise, Tatooine had it all. This time, however, he wasn't after any of these exotic species. Today he was after someone even more strange. A Jedi Knight. The twin suns of Tatooine beat down onto the bounty hunters head as he weaved in and out of the pedestrians, looking for a trace of a robe, a lightsaber on a belt, a hooded figure. Every once in a while he would stop, his brow furrowed in concentration as he listened to the crowds. Nothing here, he thought, and moved on. The market place was always a great place to pick up tips on the latest bounties. Aproaching an aging old man on a street corner he smiled. "Got any news for me, Remnar?" The ancient human laughed through a wrinkled mouth. "Nothing yet, what are you looking for?" Ornic got ready to whisper it to him when something cought his eye, or, actually, his ear. "I'm looking for a Jedi Holocron, very old, made about 2,000 years ago. Do you know where I could find something like that?" said a voice from across the street. Ornic's large Rodian ears perked up suddenly. "Sorry, Rem, I'm going to have to go now, be back later." Ornic spoke fluently in basic, although it sounded a little strange in his Rodian voice. He crossed the street to where the man was standing, acting uninterested. The person was a tall male, his features masked by his hood. He was wearing robes too, and a lightsaber hung from his beltloop. Ornic was no expert on Jedi, but this man looked like he fit the description. "Thanks for the information" said the man, in a deep, slightly chilling voice. he then proceded to walk down a few sidestreets and alleys, closely followed by the Rodian hunter. It was too crowded here, he needed to wait for a better time. Finnaly Ornics prey stopped in a deserted alleyway. The bounty hunter drew his blaster from his belt, pointed it at the robed figure's back, and yelled "Die, Jedi!", before pulling the trigger. Immediately, a rod of red light shot from the mans hand, swinging in an arc over his head and deflecting the blaster bolt. The man's other arm shot up, and lightning arced from his finger tips, hiting Ornic full in the chest and sending him reeling, in terrible pain. The Rodian screamed, but fought his way to his feet, just in time to see the red lightsaber hurled through the air, slicing across his chest, and killing him instantly. The battle was over in seconds. As his would-be killer collapsed, the figure clipped his short lightsaber back onto his belt, and laughed coldly. "Jedi? I am no Jedi." He pulled up his the hood of his black robes. "Can't you tell a Sith when you see one?" Chapter 3 coming soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabba da Butt Posted July 26, 2006 Author Share Posted July 26, 2006 Well, no one has commented on chapter two yet, but Im going to procede to chapter 3 anyway. And yes, Master Kavar actually does appear in this chapter. Enjoy! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 3 A crowd had gathered in the marketplace. Instead of talking to each other, however, they were hardly speaking at all. For in the middle of the gathering lay the corpse of a charred Rodian. And not just any Rodian, this was the corpse of the famed bounty hunter, Ornic Dakeq! Everybody knew that he was dead, but no one knew how. No one, except for a robed figure to the back of the crowd. "Does anyone know who the killer was?" he asked in a commanding voice, pulling back his hood. One of the men standing near the body, probably an investigator, walked over to the Jedi. "No sir, there are no fingerprints or DNA samples to be found anywhere on the body. There is a slash mark on his chest, but there was no blood to be found, it had been cauterised! And he has electrical burns all over his body! Maybe he was just messing with something electrical, got shocked real bad, and accidentally shot himself with his blaster. Still the strangest blaster wound I've ever seen. I guess he deserved whatever happened to him, this place is better off without their type of scum. Anyway, I dont even think It was murder, don't have any idea of who did it." "I do." said the robed man, and walked quietly away from the noisy crowd. Master Kavar was a young Jedi Knight, 22 years old, with short, light brown hair. He had taken the path of the Jedi guardian, and excelled at physical combat. A blue lightsaber hung from his belt. And it was time for his first mission. "Just find the sith, and kill him. Simple. Just trace his steps until I find him," he thought Kavar walked down several alleyways until he came to the site of the murder. Yes, he could feel it now, a Sith had been this way before. Kavar smiled. It was time to prove himself to the council. Kavar knew he was close. Now he was racing down the streets, he could sence a disturbance in the force, and it was getting closer. The young Jedi Knight rounded the street corner, just in time to come face to face with three bounty hunters, blasters raised at his chest. "Nurka wants him dead boys, just shoot him quick!" The man in front said, obviously the leader. Three blasters fired. One man fell dead. And it wasn't Kavar. Kavar had dropped to the ground at the last minute, and the third bounty hunter, trying to corner him from behind, had met an untimely death by his own allie's blaster bolt. "You really need to watch your aim, we don't want any unneeded accidents, do we?" Kavar taunted as he jumped up from the ground, igniting his lightsaber. "Shut up and die Schutta!" the lead bounty hunter yelled, firing randomly at the Jedi, only to have the bolts deflected by Kavar's bright blue saber. Meanwhile the second Bounty hunter, a Twi'lek male, had snuck up behind and was attempting to decapitate Kavar with his vibroblade. Unfortunately Kavar ducked at that moment, and the Twi'lek decapitated his own partner by accident. Kavar spun around whirling his blade, and the final bounty hunter met his fate. "Nurka, who's Nurka?" Kavar wondered, and and ran down the street and out of sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabba da Butt Posted July 26, 2006 Author Share Posted July 26, 2006 I will, once I get done reading them. And it's ok, the website was all screwy for me too yesterday, it took me like an hour to post chapter 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabba da Butt Posted July 26, 2006 Author Share Posted July 26, 2006 Yes, I know that I have been coming out with these very quickly, but I really like writing these so I'm going to go ahead at my current pace. So, um, here's chapter 4... -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 4 The young Sith had found what he wanted at last! Dismounting off of his swoop he walked slowly through the sand dunes to the east of the city. Pulling back his hood, he observed what appeared to be a small dark hole in one of the sand dunes. Yes, that was it. He mounted his swoop bike and sped off, sending a wave of sand flying behind. ---------------------------------- Kavar had tracked the Sith through town to the East side of the city, only to find that another person had been killed in the area and his swoop bike stolen. "So, he's left town," Kavar muttered to himself. "Then I'll just have to go after him." In a louder voice, he yelled to the man across the street. "Can you lend me that land speeder?" "Sorry, I can't lend it to you right now. I need it for later." Kavar dropped something into the mans hand. "There, 5,000 credits, and it will be back by tonight." "Um, well, I guess I could change my schedule, just a little bit." Said the man, and handed over the keys to the speeder. ------------------------------------ Arriving at his destination, the Sith jumped off his speeder, staring at an enormous cavern, dug straight into the sand. "Ahh, a Krayt Dragon cave, I should have known it would be somewhere difficult like this." he said, drawing his short red lightsaber and going inside. The cave was littered with bones, dead creatures, and random junk that the Krayt Dragon had dragged to its lair. But there was no Dragon inside. Not quite ready to let his guard down, the young sith continued down the dark passages, his lightsaber flooding the rooms with red light. And there it was. In the middle of the chamber farthest in, surrounded by heaps op bones and trash, lay a small jedi holocron. Pocketing it, the Sith smiled and began to make for the exit. And just then, as if to ruin a so-far perfect mission, the Krayt Dragon decided to come back from it's hunting trip. Stunned by the massive size of the ferrocious lizard, all he could do was hide in the shadows and wait for the right moment. Turning off his lightsaber, the robed Sith waited until the monterous beast was within inches of him. Then he struck, leaping from his hiding place onto the Krayt Dragon's back, igniting his lightsaber in midair and stabbing it in the back repeatedly. The lizard gave a mighty lurch and threw off it's attacker, preparing to snap him in half with it's massive jaws. The young man fumbled in the sand for his lightsaber, finding it just in time. The monter struck, but he swung, slicing it in the mouth, then leaping onto its haed, were he drove his lightsaber downward through it's skull, killing it instantly. The Sith checked his pocket, and finding the holocron still there, made for the exit. As the Sith emerged into the light, he found someone already there. Kavar was standing there, next to the parked speeder. He had already taken the time to destroy the swoop bike that had been the Sith's means of transportation. "What were you doing in there, Sith? Killing Krayt Dragons for sport?" "Retreiving an item for my master. I'm not sure we've met. I am Darth Xyrus." "Nice to meet you. I'm Kavar." And with that, both men ignited their lightsabers and charged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabba da Butt Posted July 27, 2006 Author Share Posted July 27, 2006 Chapter 5 Blue and red blades clashed in mid air as their owners met in battle. Kavar stared into his opponents eyes for a moment, then withdrew and struck again, with a devastating blow at the knees. Xyrus blocked, then struck upwards throwing Kavar off balance. Back and forth it went, Xyrus hacking away with his lightsaber, then Kavar blocking and launching his own attacks. Sand flew as the young Jedi leaped over the Sith's head, landing behind him and slicing at his head, only to be thrown backwards by a force push. Xyrus smiled, rushing forward and attacking Kavar, who was still on the ground. Kavar just managed to block with his lightsaber, then rolled to the side and jumped backwards, away from the relentless assault by the red blade. Kavar centered his blade in front of his chest, preparing for the next wave of battle. However, Xyrus didn't move. Instead, he closed his eyes, and lowered his lightsaber. The Jedi prepared to rush the Sith, but was suddenly consumed by a feeling of helplessness a fear. Laughing, Xyrus opened his eyes, his hood whipped back by the wind. Kavar looked into the face of his enemy. He was human, with short unkept hair. Streaked tattoos addorned his face above his eyebrows and on his cheeks. His eyes were a grey so dark they seemed almost black. With a grin full of hate, the Sith ignited his lightsaber and prepared to charge, new determination within him. "Was that ...?" Kavar began to say before raising his lightsaber to meet his attacker head on, blue and red beams swirling in hypnotic patterns. "Yes, it was. Battle meditation. Not many Jedi have ever mastered it, and even fewer Sith." Xyrus said, smiling at his demoralized opponent. "Works great, doesn't it?" Kavar felt himself once again emersed in despair, collapsing to his knees. Xyrus raised his saber, preparing to give the killing blow. Kavar hung his head, preparing for his death. Then, came a memory. There is always hope, said the voice of Master Vandar in his head. Center yourself, find your place in the force, and find peace, you will. Kavar raised his head to his attacker, his head begining to clear. Swift and strong, a Jedi must be, always triumph, the lightside will, if it's pupils remain strong in the force. Kavar looked up into his attackers eyes, his bravery restored. And as Xyrus' lightsaber came flashing down at his head, he ignited his lightsaber, swinging it to deflect the Sith's blow, then, smiling, sent a counter attack at Xyrus' chest. Confused, Xyrus, stumbled, only to be met by more of Kavar's onslaught. Relentlessly, Kavar's lightsaber fell again and again, driving Xyrus back. "Not on a true Jedi!" He yelled, swinging his lightsaber at Xyrus, then stabbing and swinging again. Barely able to block Kavar's attacks, Xyrus retreated. "This is not over!" he screamed, leaping into the rented speeder as Kavar closed in on him. "No!" Kavar yelled, throwing his lightsaber at the frightened Sith. But it was too late. Xyrus had stolen the speeder and was rocketing out of sight. Kavar turned around slowly, looking for a way back to town. Then a way back to town found him. But not in the way he had wanted. "Freeze, Jedi!" came a voice from behind, as a laser sight appeared on his back. Turning arround, Kavar found himself facing at least a dozen bounty hunters. "Yeah, that's right Jedi, you can't fight us all, we've got 16 men with guns trained on you, so you had better get in the speeder and come with us quietly. Nurka wants a word with you."

Jae Onasi Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm a big fan of Kavar, so I'm happy to see a fic about him. I write my fics in Word (any word processor will do) and run a spell check on mine before I post it here. Also, put line breaks between each new speaker and when you start a new paragraph--it makes it a lot easier to read on a forum. Slow down and take your time when describing things. It helps us 'see' what you're seeing even better. I liked how the memory of Vandar's instruction helped him break out of the battle meditation. I'm looking forward to seeing more of Kavar's adventures, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, no worries--I hope I didn't sound harsh--I know you're trying hard and you're doing pretty darn good. By slowing down, I mean take your time and describe the scenes and actions in more detail--we can't see the picture you have in your head, so you have to tell us what you're seeing. How would you describe the action and scenery to someone who couldn't see? What sounds can we hear? What smells are there, if it's relevent to the story? That kind of thing. If it makes you feel any better, I had to go back and fix a spelling error in my previous post.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabba da Butt Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 Chapter 6 Kavar was led in to the throne room of Nurka the dreaded Hutt. Hands bound, with 16 guns trained on his back, all he could do was comply. For now. Nurka laughed. Seeing things working out according to plan pleased him. "Ahh, so here is the famed Jedi. Didn't put up much of a fight did you? I was surprised, after you killed Ornic, he was my best bounty hunter." A translator droid stood between them, translating from Huttese to basic, and back again as they spoke. "I was, otherwise distracted as your men snuck up on me." Kavar answered, deciding to hear the Hutt out. "And besides, it wasn't me who killed Ornic, the Sith Apprentice Xyrus made short work of that." Nurka's eyes widened as the droid rellayed Kavar's message. "A Sith! First Jedi, and now Sith!" Nurka paused for a moment, thinking. "Ahh, it seems I do have a use for you, Jedi. Perhaps a deal? I will let you free, and then you will bring the Sith to me. Sith tend to cause even more damage to the galaxy than the Jedi do. If you find me the Sith, I will cease hunting you. You can go free. That is my offer. Bring me the Sith, or rot here in my prison until you change your mind." Now it was Kavar's turn to pause. "Deal, Nurka. I will bring you the Sith. Now let me free." Nurka smiled. This was all going according to plan. "Men, show him outside and set him free!" Then to the translator droid he told his final message for Kavar. "Do not betray me, Jedi, or I will hunt you to the edges of the galaxy. No one double crosses a Hutt!" Kavar nodded, and was led out into the sunlight above. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Edit:"Kabar" is now fixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabba da Butt Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 And, because the last one was so short: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 7 Kavar sighed, happy to be out of the dark passageways of Nurka lair. He breathed in deeply, enjoying the fresh air, and soaking up the sunlight. Then, slowly, he exhaled, sat down, and began to meditate. For nearly an hour he sat there, in front of the great, copper plated doors of Nurka's palace. Meditating, sensing his surroundings, and feeling things with the force. Many things he saw. There were children playing across the street. A food vendor advertised his product. A swoop race was being held downtown, and many people were attanding. Life was going on as normal. But something else was their too. A dark energy, twisted, evil. There was more going on here than met the eye. A plot was unfolding, the dark side moving. And Nurka was pulling the strings. It was time for Kavar to pull a few of his own strings. The situation was not lost. Not yet. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Xyrus had stopped in at the cantina for a few drinks. Around him sat thugs, alien mercenaries, space pilots, swoop racers, drug dealers, and a whole lot of people who seemed down on their luck. The Cantina was a dangerous place, yes, but also a good place to hide if you knew how. As neon lights flashed near the ceiling, illuminating the bar, Xyrus waited. It would only be a few days. He had what he wanted, now he just had to lay low for a while, and avoid that Jedi. In a few days the Sith fleet would arrive, to escort the valuble Jedi artifact back to Korriban. It wouldn't be long now. Xyrus got up and walked over to the center of the room, where the bar tender stood behind the counter, next to an asortment of loud, rusty brewing machines. "I'll have another drink, same as last time." he mumbled. Taking the drink, he walked back to his table and sat down. As a Sith, Xyrus had greater physical stamina, and was more immune to alchohol than most people. Still, he was beginning to feel the effects of too many drinks. "Ok, last one," he mumbled to himself. "Don't wan't to be drunk if more bounty hunters show up." He smiled to himself. Two bounty hunter corpses already lay in the corner of the cantina, where they had been dragged after Xyrus had mercilessly slaughtered them. It was time to be going anyway. The Sith got up and walked to the door. Instantly, a blade of blue light shot across the doorway, and Xyrus found himself with Kavar's saber across his throat. "What do you want from me?" asked Xyrus, stepping outside, the blue lightsaber still dangerously close to beheading him, "If you wish to kill me, then get it over with." "I wish for your cooperation," Kavar repied. "I have a proposal to make." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabba da Butt Posted July 29, 2006 Author Share Posted July 29, 2006 Chapter 8 "Why do you chose the dark side?" Kavar asked his new ally as Jedi and Sith walked the long path to Nurka's palace, "There is good in you, I can feel it, but instead you use your anger." "Quiet Jedi, It's not too late for me to kill you and forget our agreement." Xyrus replied. "Yes, but I really doubt that you could avoid Nurka's mercenaries for long now that they wan't you dead. I don't know what powerful freinds you have on Korriban, but until that Hutt is dead, your not safe on Tatooine, or anywhere in the system." Kavar glanced at Xyrus. "I need your help, and you need mine." "I don't need anyones help. I am a Sith." Xyrus said, loud enough to show his anger. "But I will answer your question. I chose the dark side because it is powerful. I need power. Power to change the galaxy. The power to make it the way I want to be." Ahh, now I'm getting somewhere, thought Kavar. "Power? The Jedi have power, but they use it for good. We change the galaxy, but without destroying those who oppose us. Is it worth it to destroy the galaxy in order to rule it?" "But the Jedi do things too slowly! The galaxy rots while Jedi take their time doing their peaceful work! The Sith know how to change things. You conquer it, then rule it, then change it. And kill anyone who tries to stop you." "Those are Sith lies. The Sith only want power for themselves, they don't want a better galaxy, they don't care about what happens to the rest of the people, as long as they get what they want!" Kavar smiled, seeing that his message was getting through. "You know what I'm telling you is true. You have seen it. Sith destroying just for pleasure. Sith gaining power to use it for their own ends. You are different. You want to make things better. The Sith don't do that, they change things quickly yes, but they change them to meet their own ends. Come to the light. You can help heal the universe, one peace at a time." Xyrus looked torn. "I will,... consider what you have said. I'm not sure I beleive in the ways of the Sith. But I am no Jedi either. Perhaps someday I will come to the light. Right now I need more time. The two walked in silence the rest of the way. Coming to Nurka's palace, they were led down through dark passageways, winding and lit only by torches. "This way" the droid guide chattered as they were led through Nurka's den room, which, surprisingly, was empty. "Where are we going?" Xyrus asked, begining to sence a weird disturbance in the force, "I have a bad feeling about this." "Through this door." the droid said, and the Jedi and Sith walked through the door. Only to find themselves immersed in bright sunlight, with over one hundred blasters aimed at their heads. They were in a sort of execution coloseum, with no roof, and the sky above their heads. Nurka smiled. "Kavar has done a quick job, defeating a Sith and taking him prisoner is no easy feat. And now I have you both! It's time for you to die!" Nurka stopped, allowing the translator to finish up. "Kavar, you foolish Jedi, you should have known. You should never trust a Hutt." Now it was Kavar's turn to smile. "I didn't." he replied, and the Republic fleet rocketed into the atmosphere, right over head. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Edit: "Jadi" fixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabba da Butt Posted July 29, 2006 Author Share Posted July 29, 2006 Chapter 9 "What?" Nurka screamed, as Republic ships descended through the atmosphere, sending down a hail of laser fire that blew enormous chunks off of his prized palace. "Come on!" Kavar said to the amazed Xyrus, "I told you I knew how to take care of Nurka!" "You betrayed me?" Xyrus asked, "I should have known not to trust a Jedi. You just wanted to turn me in to the Republic!" "No, I need you to take care of Nurka's men while I disable the Hutt's anti air craft turrets." Kavar said, smiling. Xyrus smiled, turned around, and charged the confused bounty hunters, his short red lightsaber drawn, as Kavar disapeared from veiw. Nurka's men pulled out blasters and began firing, but nothing could stop the young Sith now. Blocking blasts, he leaped into the air, landing in the middle of a large group, and then spun, his lightsaber flashing as it brought swift death. Rising up from the ground, he blocked two more shots, then swung and cut down another man. Xyrus laughed, and lightning arced from his finger tips, sending another wave of mercenaries to the ground. Nurka's men were no match for the Sith one on one, but now they were becoming more organised, forming a semi cirle around Xyrus, closing him in. It was an impossible battle. The Sith cut down man after man, but more would just take their place. Quickly growing tired, he continued to fight, using Sith prowess against all odds. He couldn't win this battle alone. Then hope arrrived. A blue flash of light arced through the air, and sent three mercenaries to the ground. Kavar charged through the ranks, hacking through Nurka's men as he went. "Turrets are down!", he shouted, and ran to stand side by side with Xyrus. New strength within him, Xyrus backed up and began to concentrate. It was time for battle meditation. As the waves of enemies closed in, they felt sudden waves of fear and sadness, an in Kavar's heart, a new hope was born. Both men looked at eachother, nodded, and charged, lightsabers flashing in unison as they met with the on comming attackers. Demoralised, most of the mercenaries fled at this new assault. Those who didn't were dead in seconds. Victory was at hand. That was when the Sith fleet came out of hyperspace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
