USH'S GAME EPISODE I-"AVALAR" - Dark Side (Edna Witch, queeq, Captain Rex, yerssot)

Kuylen smirks.

"Are you coming to this fight or not?" he says. He starts to jog towards the orbital defence control room.

-

Edna, you can vaguely make out three fitures moving. You hear Hade's voice

"Set some charges," he says.

Edna decides she can't risk blowing herself up and focuses hard with the force to create a mini landslide from some of the rubble she just collapsed from the ceiling.Who knows, if she manages to set off any charges they may have set for her, the blast might even hit Hade. Yeah right, she should be so lucky!

You start a fresh slide.

"He's still out there!" yells Hade. His three remaining men start to blast weapons fire down the corridor. One is bound to hit you son!

" I don't know what the hell I'm doing here..." , Quam mumbled to himself as the blaster started charging with a weird hum as he reluctantly followed Kuylen.

Is something actually confusing you, queeq?

Edna reaches out with the force to move some of the rubble a little way away from her to try and give the illusion of someone moving quickly through it. She had to draw their attention and their fire away from herself.

The line of fire follows your little distraction.

Two guards are firing with large, heavy blasters worn with shoulder straps. The third, with a proton torpedo launcher, is loading and preparing to fire.

Hade has sheathed his pistols and is preparing a grenade...

Edna watches Hade to see f hs attention is on her diversion or whether he knows what he is facing. A jedi. If he does, he would be looking for a place where there was no disturbance. She hoped that if this would be the case, she would disturb more rubble closer to her to keep his grenade from her

"Hold your fire!" orders Hade. Then, at his signal, the proton torpedo launcher fires and he throws his grenade simulataneosuly...

Edna uses the force to Jump forward and up as high as she could go. She just reaches the hole in the ceiling and swings herself through. She does this almost subconsciously, concentrating deep into the force, almost in a trance, she has been focusing on the grenade. Trying with all her might to send it backwards the way it came

Several things happen at once. There is the blur of movement as you leap upwards, thge whoosh of the torpedo slamming into the corrdior, the sudden reversal of the grenade and the cires of terror from Hade's men as it comes back towards thgem.

Then everything explodes at once.

You are stunned for a few moments, Edna. You have landed back on the ground. Everything is a bit fuzzy. Someone is coming towards you.

Immediate jedi defensive reflexes cause Edna to somersault up and land several yards behind where she was on her feet, lighting herlightsabre mid air, not only for defence but so she can see her attacker.

A shit flies just beneath you asd you jump and twirl. As you land, you see Hade in front of you. He spins and levels his guns at you.

"Well well. It seems it's just you and me now Hade, now the odds are more even!"

Edna takes up a defensive stance, feeling deep within the force, remembering what Kuylen had taught her and trying to anticpate when he would make his move

Hade takes steps backwards.

"You and your friends are all fools," he says. "Friendless and alone. The Republic will destroy you all."

Hw fires both his guns...

Edna, anticipating both shots, volleys them with herlightsabre then takes severl steps forward to counter his.

"The republic? Don't make me laugh! Their might is no match for ours!"

Hade keeps backing away, best he can, and keeps up his rate of fire making it hard for you tro advance as you try to block his shots.

"You people are nothing. You HAVE no might. The Jedi Order numbers 10,000, better trained and organised than you. Did you really think you had any future, with us or anyone? You will be hunted down and terminated like so many pointless wamprats."

If she can just keep hi talking long enough!

"Oh really and I suppose once we are eliminated, you and whoever you are working for will take all the credit for the work WE have done! You don't surprise me one bit Hade. You always were a snivelling coward who hid behind others who did your work for you!"

Letting herself go into the force, she lets her arms flow, not having to even think about where the shots are coming from. And the same time she tries a risky attempt at lifting some debris behind him and lobbing it at him with as much force strength as she can muster. She must dislodge atleast one of those blasters.

Hade, still moving backwards with a sharp eye fixed on you, fais to notice thw wobbling debris behind him, as he keeps up the shots in your direction.

"Take credit? Don't you understand, little girl? You don't even MATTER enough to take credit for. The Republic is starting to come apart. There's a lot of power coming to those with the will to take it. And your pitiful band of common thugs won't even come close..."

His shots come faster and faster, and more intense.

"Oh and I suppose YOUR little band of thugs will matter? You think you really have what it takes to salvage anyting from the fall of the republic? Pelloran really does think too hghly of himself!"

Edna hurls the lump of debris at him as hard as she can and then all her attentions turn once more to her defence.
