Inqusitions (Open/Seph)

[Oege]

Oege watched as the opposition responded to their brutal assault. They sent out a good 500-600 men from what Oege could tell with his Force Seeing. Oege's men finally caught up with him and he fell back behind them a bit to be able to concentrate less on self defense.

"Men hold position here and keep suppressive fire on those Storm Troopers! Don't let them get past this point!"

Oege barked these orders to the men around him and over his comm. He then pushed the button on the side of his shoto and took the blade back, then strapped it back onto his thigh. He focused closely to the force and examined every ripple. There were many powers of dark side around him but he could focus on the area at hand with ease still. He noticed the Commandos and AT-STs moving up closer. He saw Eaon respond before he could, destroying one of the two squads, but only after they fired their rockets. Oege quickly responded and grabbed both sets of ten rockets, and Force Pulling them. This redirected them at the enemy AT-STs. Two AT-STs, two sets of ten rockets, perfect. As both the flaming metal corpses hit the ground, Eaon destroyed the area near the east temple entrance. This caught the squad of commandos in that area off guard and Oege took notice of this.

"First two squads of mandalorians, move up to frontal position and destroy that commando squad!"

Oege watched as the 100 mandalorians do what they do best, kill. They disposed of the small squad easily and switfly, before the enemy could even reload for a second assault.

"Great, now cover me on my assault with precise suppressive fire! Squads three and four of Mandalorians, each squad covers an AT-RT and keeps an eye out for anti-vehicle, while keeping fire on whatever the AT-RT fires at! All infantry rebels and freedom fighters, redirect all fire at killing the left and right flanks of those advancing Storm Troopers. Same goes for the AT-RTs! I'll drive the assault up the middle!"

Oege drew the extremely intimidating blade from his back and force jumped over his men and exposed himself to the front-most line of battle. Oege used his Force Speed and Form IV: Ataru to get right in the face of the furthest forward Storm Trooper.

Oege swiftly swung his giant sword, taking out 5 storm troopers in one swing do to the confined quarters of the temple, the storm troopers were nice and close. Oege then tensed his muscles and tapped into the force more heavily in combat than he had in years. He focused on his Force Seeing and Force Repulse. He saw all the shinies in front of him as they began to be flung backwards from the intense kinetic energy sent out by Oege. Wave after wave pulsed from his body as he moved from Form III: Soresu to Form IV: Ataru. This way he could defend himself from the few blaster bolts headed his way, and still move swiftly up the middle of the enemy forces. Defending his body was easy due to the size and girth of his massive weapon. He continued to push forward as his men out number the flanks 3 to 1, not mentioning the AT-RTs. They cut through these inexperienced military units like a hot knife through butter. This was the best escape route for Eaon when he returned in a matter of seconds.

[Darth Keitavon Fox]

The building rumbled and explosions could be heard outside as Fox swiftly dashed down the hall in a blur. He had to find his queen. She must have orders for him to fulfill. He had to prove himself to her and become greater than their enemies. He was a mere blur to the troopers crowding the halls. Often dodging and leaping over heads without single hesitation or haltering of his speed.

"My Queen you are hard to find." Murmered Fox as he sprinted through another group of troopers. The shear mass of numbers of the Sith's own troopers had begun to annoy him. They were not so much hindering him but annoying him by the fact that none but troopers could be found. He scowled and continued his search. One trooper had broken away from thr group and was running down the haul alone. Fox lunged forward extending his blades and severed the troopers head with a swift slash to the neck. As the head fell slowly Fox grabbed the body and flipped with it through the air. As he did a full forwards turn he pushed off the troopers lifeless body with his feet using extreme force to propell himself through the air even faster.

As Fox landed he was able to keep his newly gained speed from the corpse of the trooper. He sped down the hall before finally making a turn placing behind his "Queen". Fox instantly haulted and dropped to one knee before adressing her. "My Queen! What is this situation? I am here to serve as your right hand and servant! Please my Queen let me deliver punishment in your place for our Empire! What shall you have me do!" As sure of himself as he was he would always humble himself to the Empress, for she would surely sever his tongue for his impudence. At least until he had become strong enough to hold his own against any who oppossed him.

[Sephiroth The One Winged]

Taisho didnt do that much he wasn't to sure what was going on but he enw he sensed something, he noticed the soilders aiming there guns at him, that was mightly rude of them. He thought for a moment a gun pointed at him. Then he heard the sithy boy talk, he listened and some what giggled in his head, oh good job Eaon, your master was wise to teach you. Your pretty good for a child.

Then out of the blue he was punched in the face. He yelped in pain slightly. and some what screams out making sure his buddys perhaps could hear him. "OH GODS NOT THE FACE!!"

He lowers his head smirking as he does so, his senses where some what fuzzy but he new what he had to do, do you really think a master could be held like this, Foolish children, the only one who could be a match for his skills would be there empress and she was just a old hag. He bring shis head back again his hair sliding over his face, his eyes open and some what flash blue as all around him starts to take hold. he was going to use his force repulse. And doing that, The sith and the two guards before they could do anything where now apart of the walls around them, This would give time for his ally jedi knight to get Taisho out of here. He senses Eaon and smirks lightly and speaks to him useing the force. He also seemed to use the poor guards as doors as they smashed right threw the room into the hall way.

"I made a door way..well perhaps two. Hurry this other sith seems to be on a higher level and i highly don't think he likes begin a picture frame."


[WHY THE FACE YOU ASS!!]

[Draque]

The entire Storm Trooper platoon got obliterated before the sheer strength in numbers of the opposing rebel forces. Along with the troopers, the elite Commandos were easily taken down by the heavy tank-which placed itself in a very strategic position. Even the two walkers were destroyed by their own forces' projectiles. The remaining 200 Clone Veterans fell back and took cover, blind-firing from cover to avoid getting shot. They took out at least 20 Rebels as they sprayed the battlefield of well over 2000 men.

Unfortunately, for the heavy tank, the Commandos on the east top level balconies heading their way were not interested in the heavy tank. They continued on until they had a clear view of the battlefield and took cover to avoid detection. As did the Commandos on the west top level balconies. Draques south squad turned the corner only to be met with the heavy tank's weapons looking them in the face. "Take cover!", Draque shouted out as he and the Commandos rolled to the other side of the corridor, while the ones that were too late remained on the other side. "Damn, they have a Jedi with them. Why the hell didn't I sense it before?!" The captain of his Commando squad proposed a plan. "Alright, go for it trooper!" The commandos stood ready. 15 around the east corner of the corridor leading to the tank and 15 on the west.

The captain barked orders to his squad. "Pop smoke."[/i] One man lobbed a grenade into the middle of the corridor, in a second smoke started to spurt out of the small object, covering the entire corridor with it. "Open fire!" 10 Commandos remained at their positions, 5 on each corner of the corridor. Their red blaster bolts emerged from the smoke and created a volley of red death spraying the 20 commandos, easily killing 10 by surprise. The remaining 20 of Draques commandos rushed through the side of the smoke, 10 emerging on each side of the corridor, taking aim and firing upon the commandos. Draque leaped into the air and emerged from above the smoke cloud, coming down-saber in hand-with a vertical strike at the Jedi atop the tank.

The commandos at their west and east flanking positions popped up and opened fire upon the two walkers on ground level. With 30 on each side, only 10 on each side fired their rockets upon the walkers while the other 20 on each side opened fire on the amassed infantry below them, killing 20 Rebels combined. The walkers exploded and fell with a fiery sting. They lay smoldering on the ground. The rocketeers ducked and covered, reloading their rocket launchers.

((Rebel losses: 50 Rebels, 2 walkers))

[Astren Rosalba Chevalier III]

Waves of bullets rained in the building before the Empress who watched with a slowly falling expression. How many of her men were to be bested? It was an embarrassment and one she wasn't prepared to handle gracefully. Even though she couldn't see what was going on, her empathic abilities allowed her to at least tell that they were losing men and even if they would have certain victory, she felt no pride in losing any large number of men in the process.

“My Queen! What is this situation? I am here to serve as your right hand and servant! Please, my Queen, let me deliver punishment in your place for our Empire! What shall you have me do!”

Fox appeared, sudden but expected. She turned to face him and felt somewhat relieved that he'd come to find her. He was powerful enough, more than likely able to hold his own in such a situation.

“Ah, Darth Keitavon Fox, my apprentice” her voice came almost cheerful stateliness as she waved her right hand- the one that was not concealing the light sabers in its sleeve, propped between her arm and the body of her dress- bidding him off the floor. “It seems that rebel forces are trying to best us and have infiltrated the Temple. High Inquisitor Draque has already started to control the problem, although,” she allowed her words to trail off, a sentence that would never be finished. The smile changed slightly, a new look of giddiness pulling at the edges of her expression.

“Follow me, it stands to reason that we should be present in the event something goes awry” Code, for 'you'll probably get to kill something so allow me to show you where to go'

She hurried out of the building, down the many halls and flights of stairs that lead to the exit and soon found herself nearing the Temple itself, outside which a battle was waging.

“Fox, seek out the Grand Inquisitor and ensure that he's not been taken captive or injured.”

She watched and waited, and felt the strongest urges to burn everything. The Temple could be repaired, and it was better off a little scorched than full of bullets. Alas, Draque had his own plans and though he was beneath her rank, he was more involved in the situation than she was and his plans would, perhaps, be more effective.

[Eaon's admin account]

"SIR, COMMANDOS IN THE OPEN!" One of the Freedom Fighters shouted as the Commandos began to roll in from the Eastern Flank. The AT-TE's main turret turned towards the units and fired a shot, reducing them (and most of the platform they stood on to a pile of smoldering ruin. Eaon turned around just in time to see another group approaching from the west. One immediately fired a rocked that Eaon was able to deflect quite easily using the Force, however the other ten would be a problem. Eaon was forced to abandon his AT-TE.

Just as Eaon began to abandon his AT-TE he turned in time to see an Inquisitor making a jumping slash towards him. Eaon thought of fighting him, but the man's own trap would do him in quite well. Eaon kicked off of his AT-TE's main cannon and landed in the hallway along side the AT-TE that Taisho was undoubtedly in. In a split second though Eaon saw as the rockets slammed hard into the back of the AT-TE and it went up in flames, sending debris in every direction with a powerful shock wave. One of the pieces of debris bounces off the temples walls and penetrated Eaon's right knee bringing him down in pain. To make things worse Eaon was rather dazed, and when he finally realized what was happening four freedom fighters had dragged him out of the hallway and pulled the screw out of his knee.

Eaon stumbled to his feet and gave his blue lightsaber to one of the Fighters and told them get it to the Captive in the room the tank was outside of and they followed orders. The Freedom Fighter in all the confusion made it to the back room and one of the holes that another human being had made and threw the lightsaber towards Taisho. The only hope was that Taisho would catch the weapon before the Inquisitor in the room did.

Meanwhile Eaon regained his focus and took notice that his men had killed off the remaining Commandos in the area. The victory had not come without a great loss though, half of them were dead as well and the Dark Aura of the Sith who'd attacked Eaon still lingered on. Eaon pulled his purple Lightsaber out of his pocket and ignited it before limping around and using Force Heal to sooth the pain in his knee a bit.

Hopefully the Sith would surrender quickly or else they'd turn him to mince meat. Even though Eaon's knee was in bad condition he could still fight this guy, Eaon wasn't out of it yet. Eaon moved back by the burning Debris of the tank that now smoked from within the Temple and found the Sith once more. "Surrender or we'll be forced to kill you." Eaon growled.
(
Aww sadface only +10 now)
(- all the commandos who were with Draque)
(- 15 of my 30 men. -5 of my additional men due to the AT-TE's explosion So -20 Total.)
(+10 from my Medics.)

[Lumina]

An AT AT slowly lumbers into view of the old Jedi Temple as it walked to ward's the main entrance into the Jedi Temple, It easily was able to see over the outer walls of the structure into the courtyard outside the main entrance and the stairway. Some random blaster fire still echoed out of the main hall. Cima moved her left arm up to her mouth to speak into a small com she had under her sleeve. "I want you to wait here don't let anything come out of that building alive, see anything take off bring it down with the twin lasers." She says to the AT AT commander, knowing she doesn't any really any authority over them, but she was the one who rallied these soldiers in a hurry to get them to the scene once the Temple was under attack.

(Cima's Reinforcements)
1 AT AT

400 Clone Veterans
2000 Storm Troopers
200 Clone Medics
300 Clone Commandos


Cima orders 40 of the Clone Veterans and 100 of the Storm Troopers to guard the outside Entrance with the AT AT, they formed a lose perimeter around the main entrance mainly their to insently warn the AT AT of anyone trying to escape. Cima pulls out her blaster pistol, and leads the rest of the Clone Troopers up the stairway into the main hall. The Clone Medics stop by every trooper's body to see if there are any signs of life and even some of the rebel soldiers. She orders another 100 Storm Troopers to start picking up the blaster rifles and other random weapons off the ground, cleaning them out of the hall and dragging bodies of injured and wounded away to a safer location so the medics can do their work.

Cima looks around and brings her left arm to her mouth again "Is there anyone left in the building?" she cries out over an Imperial Frequency that all troopers can pick up perhaps she can get a fix of the situation. She looks around the hall to see if anyone is around who is in charge of what few troops remain in the hall from the earlier battle. She points to have the remaining storm troopers fan out in the hall to all the doorways and up another flight of stairs to the balconies, she keeps the Clone Veterans and Commandos close as well as the other half of the medics waiting for an update of the situation, she has no idea where the intruders have gone.

"Maybe I can capture a Jedi i can get a instant promotion..." She thought to herself, she moves herself closer to pillar just in case of random blaster fire from any stragglers, she waves her hand to one of the squad leaders to do the same, and they spread out across the room waiting for any sign of information.

( Soldiers with Cima 300 Clone Commandos, 100 Medics, 1800 Storm Troopers if I plan to take them as well, 360 Clone Veterans)
(assuming Dag gets 100 of his troopers back because of my 200 medics?)

[Oege]

Oege saw as the well directed squads of the enemy commandos destroyed his two AT-RTs.

"Damn it!"

The enemy sprayed some random fire into our numbers, obviously outmatched. But their goal didn't seem to be Oege and his men, they were after the AT-TE. Oege knew he couldn't help Eaon anymore than Eaon could help himself right now. So Oege dashed into a hallway and brought the comm to his mouth.

"Mandalorian squads one through four, form up on me in the nearby hallway! All Rebels and Freedom Fighters, squads Gold through Green, back off out of the main area into the hallways, and help the Doctors with whatever they need!"

Oege used his Force Seeing to detect the Jedi Master and anyone else in the halls. He found what he assumed to be the Jedi Master as the man's intentions were to escape using the force, and he was close to a being thats intentions were to kill the man. Oege knew he had to get to this Jedi.

"Mandalorian squads, pan out and clear the hallways nearby then hold positions for further updates."

He told the four squads next to him. Right then he heard an ear-shattering explosion. Oege used his Force Seeing again and saw Eaon, he was ok and intent on escaping alive. The explosion was the AT-TE. Shortly there after Oege saw that Eaon had thrown an object to the other Jedi, after he came to his feet in the hallway. Meanwhile Eaons remaining men killed off the Commando squads and Eaon was to confront the Sith that had come to confront him. Oege then noticed a lot of commotion in the main hallway. He peeked a look around the corner and saw a lot of reinforcements, including an AT-AT that was very close to the temple. He watched for a moment more as they were instructed to gather weapons and clean up the area. Some where commanded to sweep the hallways. Or so he thought, with the way a few enemy squads rushed into the hallways. Oege quickly spoke into his comm.

"All units in the hallways, he on high alert. Enemy squadrons have begun a sweep of these hallways. Whatever you do, do not let them get past you, use the element of surprise and ambush. Hold positions and do not, I repeat do NOT enter the main hallway. They have an AT-AT stationed outside so anyone out there is as good as dead."


Oege knew this changed the plans drastically and unfortunately they would have to have massive casualties now. Oege quickly thought of a plan and spoke into his comm.

"All Mandalorian squads, status report on all explosives."

"Full up sir! We have plenty of rockets, thermal detinators and detonation charges!"

All four squads returned his answer at the same time.

"Good, be on stand by to form up on me and move out, prepare all explosives!"

Oege then spoke to Eaon though his comm.

"Hold off that Sith and wait for the code 'Rise Phoenix', on that code you have 15 seconds to escape the temple and make it outside. Do not go out the main entrance instead stay on the far side of the building, the enemy has an AT-AT covering the main area. After the 15 seconds is up, wait another 30 seconds and then call in the freighter to pick youand the Jedi up in the confusion. We will regroup at the cantina((only Eaon knows which one))."

Oege ran down the hallways and spoke into his comm.

"All Mandalorian squads, form up on me!"

He watched as the near 200 men followed him down hallway after hallway. They continued down and down. finally to a point were the tunnels were so old only about every other light worked. Oege used his Force Seeing to make sure he could see just fine even in these low-light conditions. They continued and finally after a few minutes of running, they came to where Oege knew. He knew the layouts of the temple from being the Grand Master Artisan, he also had to know architecture. Oege thought it would never come in handy till now. They had entered the under area of the Jedi temple. It was a massive vacant room with four giant pillars near the corners and one in the middle. Oege commanded the Manalorians.

"Ok one squad per corner, use all rockets and thermal detinators and whatever else you have, but save your detonation charges for the center pillar! Move Move Move!"

Oege barked at them. They didn't have a lot of time. His strategy would obliterate the center pillar, but probably only crack the outer for. But with the loss of the center, they would collapse inward and break from stress on the fractures and cracks.

Oege saw that they were done lacing the pillars after sixty seconds.

"Good job now lets get out of here!"

Oege barked, running for the hallways that lead down a few flights of stairs and to the exit onto the streets of the Black Pit Slums. It was a completely sealed door. Oege drew his double bladed lightsaber and ejected only one side of the blade. He used it to cut down the door as quickly as possible. Behind the door was a concrete wall, to disguise it from the people on the outside. Oege cut through it as well. He then retreated his blade and re-holstered it. He used Force Push on the concrete rectangle he had cut and it fell into the alleyway. Oege quickly jumped out and looked around with his Force Seeing. No one. He signaled for his men to exit.

"Great job today men now get out of here, when I pull this trigger its gonna be ugly."

Oege ran down the alleyway and across the street, then into a nearby cantina. As he was walking in he yelled into his comm to Eaon.

"Rise Phoenix!"

Shortly after the command he hit the button on the detonator. The explosions went off as it shook the very ground at his feet. After about ten seconds Oege heard it. The creaking and waning of bending and collapsing metal. His plan had worked and collapsed the temple! Now Oege made his way to the cantina he told Eaon he would meet him in. Hopefully he made it, unlike their men.

((Oege can't see this but the whole temple is sunken in and collapsed. The ground around it also sunk inward towards the temple.

The AT-AT that is outside the temple would have lost its balance on the tilted ground, and fallen over. This would cause it to be damaged but not dead. But it would be on its side and useless at the moment.

All NPCs in the temple are crushed and killed easily.

All players do NOT die. They are most likely unconscious and may be transported to the hospital.

Overall NPC losses:
Our Side:
-all units besides 190 Mandalorians

Imperials:
Cima's:
-300 Clone Commandos
-100 Medics
-1800 Storm Troopers

Overall Player "knock-outs"
Cima
Grahm
Eaon and Seph(if he doesn't make it outside)
Draque
NOTE: THESE ARE ALL CONDITIONAL LOSSES FOR THE IMPERIALS AND PLAYERS, IF YOU POST AND YOU ESCAPE IN YOUR POST OR RETREAT IN YOUR POST, THEY DON'T DIE. REMEMBER, NO METAGAMING THOUGH.

((exit))

[Eaon's admin account]

Eaon got Oege's Message and despite his situation turned and ran. He couldn't save his men, but hopefully the damage that was about to be done would be more than enough to avenge them. As Eaon escaped back out to the balcony he jumped and free fell several hundred feet before catching a ride on a Speeder zipping through the air. They were more than happy to help Eaon get to safety and Eaon explained he'd fallen from a building.

((sorry it's short, but it's an exit))

[Sephiroth The One Winged]

Taisho caught the Lightsaber with ease and Ran by the man who had handed it to him, he sened the building was moving oh this was great, he didn;t now where he was but with the force he sened where to go, he wouldn;'t have time to deal with anyone or help anyone what some what amde him up set. He began to sue the force and run faster threw the halls until he got to a open area what was open to the out side. He jumped out and landed on the ground and quickly sytarted to run forward until he seen a speeder drive off in the sky, ah that kid, He started to run once again sensing where that speeder would go and he would travel any way to get to where this jedi knight would get to.

[EXIT..Its bad yes..have a problem with it...i really dont care at the moment. ^^]

[Darth Keitavon Fox]

"Yes my Queen!!!" Fox saluted the empress and dashed towards the exit of the building to do her bidding. He was more than willing to be sent into the middle of a battle. It had been a while since he killed anyone who actually deserved it. Now he had his chance he thought as he approached the doorway. Suddenly the building shook and and Fox skidded to a halt in front of the doors. He peered out seeing all the carnage that had just taken place. It mattered not what he did now. He had to inform his Queen. Fox turned and sprinted back to his Queen to inform her of what happened.


(((EXIT)))

[Draque]

Draque nearly leaped at the escaping Jedi but the ground beneath him unbalanced him and he could not move easily. There was nothing he could do. These bloody Rebels would go to such lengths to save one of their own, they care not of their own. Shameful is the word. More like Hypocrites. The lot of them. He turned and sprinted toward the window on the far corner of the corridor. "Remaining Commando units! Retreat! The building will merely crush the rebel scum; our mission here is over!" The 2 Commando squads on the east and west balconies ran past their corridors and grapple-hooked their way down the temple. The Imperial Veterans down below ran for the exit, screaming at the Imperial Cadet and her reinforcements, "Fall back! The Temple is collapsing!" They ran past and evaded the building's collapse in time. Nothing but the broken ruins of the Jedi Temple. A grave for the unfortunate rebels who aided the Jedi.

Draque and his remaining 60 Commandos gathered in from of the temple with the reinforcements. Good job men. You fought hard, but in the end the failure was mine. I could not foresee the enemy's plans. Rest easy on a job well done." The men saluted, along with the Veterans and walked at ease base. Draque himself made his way for the Empress.

[Exit Draque]

[Lumina]

She feels a sudden shake to the structure, her eyes widen as she ponders what just happened, many of the troopers around here start speaking out of turn as well, until cracks start to form on many parts of the building's interior. "Fall back! Everyone get out of the building, carry and drag the wounded out now!!" She yells to the troopers around here, the medics, and many of the other troopers in the other room not far from the main entrance to the old Jedi Temple start carrying several dozen wounded of Imperial and Rebel alike out of the building before it collapse, having so many troops scattered about, such a fast effort to pick so many souls who would of other been helpless was speedy and almost orchestrated proficient. Cima and all of the soldiers she had in the main hall got out of the building safely plus extra and even prisoners because of their position to the exit was only a short sprint away.

She turned around after getting out to the Court Yard, seeing a few of the troopers rushing out as the main columns inside start to collapse and tumble down, the force of it, bringing down the floor which was dramatically weakened from the shock of the earlier explosions.

"Just proves the Jedi are a lost cause." She said out loud, her person feelings. toward the Jedi has become more bitter than before, originally seeing them as failures, now as Vale traitors to their own cause.

(rescued 100 wounded soldiers)
