Before you can touch your blade to the door, it slides open automatically.
Beyond is a dark chamber, filled with flashing lights.
"Do we proceed?" Kay asks.

Tanic reaches out with the Force, trying to determine what awaits them.
"It is your decision, Master."

Kay nods, then advances into the room, lightsaber held up and tilted away from her.
The moment you enter the room, the heavy blast door behind you suddenly slides shut again. It beeps once to indicate that the security lock has been successfully activated.
Control panels cover the room, monitoring the gas tank and machinery and all other parts of the Alpha Station. The dim yellow-red glow of the buttons and screens provides you with enough light to see by.
A figure stands at the far end of the control station, his back to you. He is facing the reinforced transparisteel window, watching the starfield beyond. You cannot make out distinct details, but he is clad in black.

Tanic doesn't say anything, but glances at Kay, still scanning for other lifeforms.

You sense... absolutely nothing. Not even the man standing before you, or Kay at your side.
Kay furrows her brow in concern.
"Who are you?" she asks, approaching the man.

Tanic stays a pace behind, eyes searching the darkness, lightsabre raised.

The dark-robed man turns away from the starfield, facing you. His features are hidden by a dark hood.
"Welcome, Jedi," he greets, his voice eerily calm and cold. "Why do you come with weapons drawn? There is no need to fight... when you can obey."
The man thrusts his open hands towards both of you and you experience the sensation of knives being jabbed into your head from all different angles. The rhythm grows louder, Tanic, until you can hear nothing else.

Tanic fights back, trying to clear his head. He's terrified by the sound, which he so accurately predicted in his dreams.
"Kay!" He screams, as he realises he can no longer hear her.

As soon as you fight back, the knives withdraw and it is over as soon as it began. You can hear yourself panting hard from the effort to maintain control of your own mind.
Flustered, your enemy lowers his hands abruptly.
"Perhaps you Jedi possess a stronger will than I thought," he snarls, turning back to the starfield. "Very well. Take care of them."
Somewhere nearby... you hear a noise.
Tap. Tap. Tap.

Tanic spins, looking into the darkness, then back to the man. If he has any flares, he throws one (into the darkness, that is).
"Master? Do we take him?"

Your only source of light is the green glow of your lightsaber and the blue glow of Kay's.
"Yes," Kay decides, striding into the room...
...when a blaster bolt cuts through the darkness from one side of the room. She deflects it easily.
Another strikes from the other side of the room, heading for you.

Tanic whirls his lightsabre, aiming to send the bolt back where it came from. He strides forward to the psychic fella.

Your attacker rolls a 16... a miss by one. That gives your Reflection a skill of 1, which has no hope of hitting anything against your opponent, who slips to the side easily and smoothly draws a small pistol from his robes.
His evasive maneuver has forced him to relent his smothering of your senses. With your mind cleared, you are able to sense the troopers moving into the room from maintenance hatches, armed with heavy assault blasters and led by the fearless Commander Hargan.
The first two troopers through the hatches had fired at you...

...and now they're going to fire again. They stomp their feet to the tapping rhythm in your head as they raise their blaster rifles.

Tanic runs to the centre, twirling his blade. He cuts through the first two he comes to, Defending all the time.

You rather easily deflect many of the incoming bolts, but you do note that these troopers are of some considerate skill, and their heavy blaster rifles award them an increased chance of hitting you, much to your chagrin. Two of the mooks score close calls, inflicting 16 damage to you.
Kay fairs better against her enemies, only taking 7 damage from the troopers. Commander Hargan tries to blast her down, but he misses.
The dozens of bolts that pass harmlessly by yourself and Kay explode brightly against the blast door behind you, charring the surface and scattering sparks.

You advance to the middle area of the control room, pushing yourself into the midst of your foes. But they will fire again as you approach.
The hooded man simply watches.

Tanic will Defend again, and then cut apart two guards. Will their aim get worse if we're that close?

Yes, they face a -2 penalty at close range. Especially with those bulky assault rifles of theirs. None of the troopers manage to clip you.
As you don't have any powers for cutting down multiple foes, I will make that a standard attack on a single target. An 18 sees him cut down easily as your lightsaber swipes across his chest.
Kay sacrifices her frame advantage to Defend, and only Commander Hargan manages to score a hit on her. She then moves up by your side.

The robed man, thumping out the Tap. Tap. Tap. with a heavy boot, is going to fire at you this time, Tanic.
Your Force pool refreshes.

Tanic'll go to cut down Hargan using Blur, then use Reflection on the robed man's attack.

The troopers fire before you close on Hargan, but all miss. Without their burst fire advantage, it will take them some high rolling to gun you down.
The robed man also fires, but you intercept his poorly rolled shot (a 4), reflecting it back with a skill of 6. You roll an 18... a hit! He twirls to the side as his own shot zips past him, taking 7 damage. He was not expecting that.
Kay does not take a defensive action against the troopers, thoughtlessly flicking away all the poor shots against her. Hargan misses.

No need to Blur to Hargan. Since you're in the same area, it is considered that he is nearby.
However, the troopers and Hargan are going to fire again. You have player advantage over the robed man, however.

Oh well, Tanic continues to cut down troopers. No defence this time.
