Chikami patiently waited for the bombs to detonate, and then it happened. The organic shields around the gungan city rippled as they were frozen solid. An evil smile crept upon Chikami's face as panic began to ensue. Off in some other part of the city he could here Lupercus starting his reign of terror, and then a funny message came from his apprentice. Chikami couldn't help but chuckle at this new game, and decided to play along. Reaching behind his back Chikami pulls out a lightsaber given to him by his apprentice, a gift.

Igniting the lightsber Chikami begins to walk forward when he is stopped by a gungan patrol guard.

"Yousa comin' wit' me jedi. Wesa took yousa friendsa to thesa prison, and yousa goin' too." The gungan pulled out a small blue orb readying himself incase the 'jedi' tried anything.

Chikami laughed at the pitiful display and mocked the gugnan saying "Do you really think that blaster will stop me from claiming what is ours?"

Without another word Chikami lept over the gungan cutting his orb in two in mid flip, and delivering a shocking experience to the gungan. Upon landing Chikami spun around on his heel and decapitated the guard. Reinforcements could be heard heading his way, as the civilians scattered.

Reaching inside his cloak Chikami pulls out a small metal orb with a small gap around its center. Pushing the two halves together a beeping sound can be heard and lights at either end begin flashing. Silently counting to three Chikami throws the thermal detonator into the fleeing crowd. Seconds later a large explosion is heard as the thermal detonator goes off in a wave of fire and shrapnel. The cries of gungans can be heard nearly all throughout the dome as the explosion subsides and the real pain begins. Three or four homes were completely destroyed and many more have caught fire, leaving those inside to burn alive.

Chikami walks toward the oncoming guards laughing the entire time. His saber in front of him ready for the worst.

The small group of guards all stop 25 feet in front of Chikami and pull out more of the blue orbs, but these gungans are also equipped with blue shields similar to those that hold the water out of the city. The lead gungan yells out "Yousa bad jedi. Mesa gonna tell the council about yousa. Guards, attack!" The gungans behind him start throwing the orbs at Chikami.

Chikami stops laughing and says "I dont think you'll be telling the council anything." Chikami begins to destroy the oncoming projectiles with his lightsaber edging ever closer to the gungans. Growing tired of their games Chikami dashes into the group of guard and begins slashing the low-rank soldiers into small pieces. The leader he saves for last. Pulling on the darkside Chikami uses a combination of force push and force choke to lift the gungan by his throat up off the beast he was riding. The gungan begins to sputter and claw at his throat as his air flow has been restricted. Looking up at the gungan Chikami asks "Are you still gonna tell the council?" Chikami doesn't really care what his answer would be, once the gungan slumps dead in the air Chikami drops him and moves on deeper into the city.

A small cell was Vonta's quarters in the city in a bottle as she thought of the construct that held air in the city. She was being watched by the self same guard that she had first met. He eyed her closely. His partner and fellow guard was toying with vonta's Light saber and other confiscated weapons.

Turning her head Vonta looks directly at the gungan. "The darkness is approaching. I can feel it. Did you at least warn your superiors as I asked you too?" She asks.

the gungan took to looking the other way. "Wesa tolding thees Bigsa Bossman. No do nothing though."

Vonta was torn at that thought. The SIth were coming and the Gungans had no defense.

A blast rocks through the cell sending the two guards and vonta to the ground. "Whatsa That.?!!" The second guard cried out.

Vonta stood. "That is the sound of the evil that I told you was coming cuasing many bad things to your people." She turns to them with her eyes pleading. "Let me loose and I well do my best to stop them."

The pair of guards did nothing but look at her. Another explosion rocks the city. "For the Sake of the Force and the Innocents out there set Me FREE!! I Promise I well lay down my life to save your people just set me free SO that I MAY AT LEAST HAVE THE CHANCE!!" She was becoming desperate the sith were sloughtering innocents and she had no control to do any thing about it.

The Second guard stands. "You maya be with them we nosa letin yous g..." He stoped mid sentence. The first guard that Vonta had met at the gates of the city the one that had taken her in had used the Force pike to knock his fellow Gungan out cold. He turns to the cell door and deactivates the force feild. "If Yousa was on'a deem out der nows. I wouldn'a be talkin to yous'a now."

Vonta places her hand on his shoulder. "I promised I well lay my life on the line to save your people and so I shall. Now get away from here as you go tell people to stay away from the action this is my fight now."

Rearmed Vonta speds out the door. Finding a riding beast still tieed down she jumps it cutting the ropes that hold it in place. She rides as fast and hard as she can. Leting the screams of death guide her.

She stops short of the carnage. Walking through the feild of bodys. Where in the center of it all there stand two force users wielding light sabers. With Trench coat trailing in her wake she stands before the two warriors. Chikama has grown stronger. But she is a practioner of the ancient ways. With powers that well be reckoned with this day.

Jordan gave himself to the Force and felt for a semi-familiar presence. He searched for Kenshin.

He was supposed to go out and help against the Sith invasion, but he was supposed to help with Kenshin. He found his presence and ran towards it.

As Kenshin comlinked Master Leia, he noticed someone running toward him. Feeling for the person's Force signature, Kenshin gave a small sigh of relief when he noticed it was Jordan, a fellow padawan, and not a sith. He used the Force and spoke to Jordan.

"Glad to see you here, Jordan. Do you have any specific orders from Master Leia? If not, I hope you're ready for battle...

His gaze never left the chaos on the horizon. He waited for Jordan to reach him.

Leia had no sooner put away her comlink than it was beeping again. With a hint of annoyance in her movements she pulled it out again.

It was Kenshin.

"There are no further orders. From this point on, if you see any trouble... deal with it."

She thumbed off the comlink and replaced it on her belt. A speeder was gliding down the street towards her....


And that would be the mysterious patrol problem...


The speeder came to a stop not far from Leia, and the doors opened. Two Republic soldiers emerged first, and then turned and pointed their guns back into the speeder. Next out was a guy dressed all in black. The blaster rifles of the soldiers tracked his every move. The other two guards were the last out of the speeder.

Leia approached the group with an almost casual air. The guards had formed a square around the captive, if he could be called that, and Leia walked in between them, to some to a stop in front of the mysterious newcomer.

"So you must be the troublesome one in the outskirts..."

She addressed him with a nod.

"What is your name, and your purpose here?"

Dante stood before her, calm, relaxed.

"As near as i have been able to discover, My name is Dante. I came searching for the jedi, trying to find a peace within myself that i can neither feel, hear, see, smell, or taste. I am lost, the force is the only thing that seems to be able to try and restore my sense of self, and i find that i can not embrace the force as i feel i should be able to." His head lowered to a bow, eyes down. The conflicting emotions were evident, but everythign else seemed locked away, hidden behind a series of doors that would not open....

"Well, I see trouble so I'll have to deal with it..."

Kenshin mumbled mostly to himself as he put away his comlink. He then looked to Jordan.

"Come with me...We go that way."

He pointed to the fighting on the horizon and dashed off, leaping from building top to building top.

*Han kept his presence cloaked, as he made his way towards the strongest force presence he could find, which happened to be leia organa Solo. He made his way towards her closing his cloak over his face, until he got within Viewing distance of her, and then dropped the cloak he had held on his presence, allowing leia to be overcome by who stood soemwhere near her.*

Jordan caught up with Kenshin when he stopped on one building top. Having not been able to speak with him before he did so now, "She said that we as padawans may be better off together than if we fought seperatly."

They kept jumping from building to building getting closer to the battle. Jordan concentrated and let the Force flow through and around him.

Malice had finally reached his destination. Entering the city, he noticed a few citizens running from him. Grinning he continued on, walking around shrowded by a black shadow. Squads of troopers walke past him, not knowing he was there. But instead only seeing a shadow.

Continuing on his trek, he noticed a couple huddling together in their house. The window was wide open. Malice saw this as his chance to start his chaos. Reaching out a hand,t he sobbing woman soon found herself choking, gagging. The man tried helping her but didnt know what to do. The woman scratched her neck, tryin to stop whatever it was that was squeezing her throat, but to no avail.

As she fell limp onto her living room floor, the man broke out into tears and screams of anger.Captializing on that anger, Malice drew on it, fueling hi darkside power. Using a dealy technique, he felt around in the mans head, touching his blood vessels and veins with the force. Plucking here and there, Malice started to rip the man up from the inside. He died instantly, blood pouring out everywhere.

The sith walked away quickly. Masking his presense. He would find another location and star the chaos once again.
