Grinning as I hear the order echo over the communications, I open a direct link to Lord Fraxus. "Cease your assault, apprentice. The Republic forces should be surrendering as we speak."

Sure enough, as Imperious told me to stand down, the Republic troops began to put up their hands, and I ordered my forces to stop their attacks. Without any Jedi to reinforce their position, the battle had been decidedly one sided from the get go. "Drop your weapons and head quietly to your shuttles. Anyone tries anything, Republic animals, and I'll kill you myself."

As soon Fraxus confirmed that he was getting the Republic's forces to their shuttles and Cipher Nine had cut the line to Theron, I face him. "You might want to let the Twilights know that we're here to help them. I understand we're receiving reports that an island compound is shooting down Republic and New Imperial fighters."
