Mevenn ran at the figure. Lightsaber in a low right, letting go of it for a split second she reversed her hand on the hilt before swinging it up in a backhanded motion. The figure in black anticipated the move, hands delicately guiding his own blade into a block before pushing the lower half towards her legs. Pulling back she grabbed her blaster pistol in her free hand firing off three shots. He deflected all three with skill that matched her own. Whoever this man was he had certainly recieved training in some shape or form. Rushing him again she moved into a forward feint, before pulling into a left jab. As she performed the feint he sidestepped the attack entirely. Swearing under her breath she twisted into a rightblock as he threatened to cut into her body. As she strained against the blade, pushing back against him she spoke.

"So what's the test, steal some old artifact, kill a Jedi?" She spun back into a flip, firing of a couple of shots in quick succession while in midair. She didn't expect any of the shots to hit but they were doing their job of keeping her off balance. Laser fire passed over her head as the cannons from the cruiser soared over her head, acting as artillery to shoot at the shuttles. There was an explosion in the distance signalling that at least one of them had been destroyed. "Cause I have to tell you." She pushed out in the Force, and he stumbled back slightly, however he punched his blade into the blade to stop himself from being pushed too far away. Jumping in the air she brought her blade down on top of his. The blades locking as they snapped and hissed, sparks flying everywhere. 

"You picked the wrong Jedi."

Mach shrugged off the comment. "I'm sure the General will send someone for us if it's of extreme importance." In the mean time the Captain stopped the Speeder at what may have once been a set of heavy doors. The blast marks obvious to anyone with even the smallest hint of training. Already icons and images could be seen littering the surrounding area, with several skeletal remains littering the area. 

The Captain pointed through the doors. "At the end of that hallway is a room full of writing, that's where we found the chamber. It wasn't easy to get out, so I'd like for you to tell me if it was worth it."
