STAR WARS: RETROSPECTION- Rescue

"Amazing. You do have a decent idea every so often..."

That can definitely be done. Sense can tell you that you detect people below you, meaning there must be a room below you...

Dak starts cutting through the floor to drop in on them.

And Rianna will do the same. Ambush!

After cutting a circular line into the floor, it drops out from beneath you and you land amidst a small group of Shepherds with a crash of metal. Some are crushed, and those that remain draw their swords...

Xavier ignites his twin sabers and prepares for combat.

Rianna will hop down, both sabers out and ignited, as soon as the circle cut from the floor drops.

Dak will immediately leap at the crowd, sabers whirling.

As the floor comes down first and the crazed murderers second, the Shepherds are prepared for you. They seem to have learned from the experiences of their many dead friends; instead of relying on their skills to overwhelm you, they fend off your initial blows with their shields... before turning and fleeing down the corridor.

That does not mean the fight is done, however. They chuck throwing knives back at you while they retreat.

Rianna, remembering quite well what happened last time a Shepherd threw a knife at her, is taking no chances and will immediately duck out of the way (Defend).

Dak will Defend in the same way, immediately pursuing the Shepherds.

Xavier will do the same thing as well.

The daggers whirl and clink around the hallway as the Shepherds retreat into the hatchways at either end of the hall. The blast doors shut and lock, leaving you alone.

"I told you to be obedient," the droid says, speaking down through the hole you all cut. "There is no need for this violence. The Master simply wishes to discuss ideologies with you."

"Oh, shut up," Rianna snarls at the droid, using the Force to throw a bit of debris at it.

She will then proceed to cut through the door with her lightsaber.

Xavier will stand by Rianna, and help with the door.

Dak also helps with cutting through the door. "You two know we're running into a trap, right?"

"Yes, are you worried about it Fido"

"Tell me something I don't already know," Rianna snaps back. "At this point, I don't care."

Do her senses tell her anything?

"Just checking." Dak stabs his other saber through the door, waiting for the metal to melt open.

I apologize for the slow updates- it is final week. All done after tomorrow, we'll be back on track Thursday.

The door falls into a dark corridor that turns left, going further into the space station. This all appears rather stitched together.

You are having trouble sensing things again, Rianna.
