There may have been more Revolutionaries, but many of them were simply armed civilians. The Republic team had better weapons, better armor. and better training. After throwing down a few portable shields, the troopers are easily able to raise back out of cover and open fire on the ill fated rebels.

As more Mandalorians fly out in formation, I am forced to call my team to retreat to a better vantage point while we await aid. We give ground, firing over our shoulders down the street.

I turn to one of my Guardian Commandos and laugh in triumph. "Look at them! Fleeing before us." A moment later, a Republic transport flies overhead, carrying a Sith Hunter droid. I releases the droid and it smashes into the ground, coming to life instantly and turning to face the squads of Clan Wren and Saxon. "Ah! They brought us something worthy of our time at last!" I jet off towards the droid, followed closely by the commandos.

I pace outside of Korre's room. I have come to help stand guard while Becca and Xan are 'preoccupied' with Korre's delivery. Luckily, the hotel did have a working team of medical droids, so they were not left entirely to their own devices.
The hairs on the back of my neck stand up, and I hear my father's voice whisper "Mercy". I sign and shake my head. That was the only thing he ever said to me. Ever since I learned of his death, I've been trying to find some way to commune with him, but it never worked. Hunter Twilight may have been Force sensative, but Kamari Ordo was not. I wondered if that would somehow effect my father's ability to speak to me, or if he simply had nothing else to say but Mercy... whatever that meant.
My comm beeps, and I answer. "This is Kam. Go ahead."

My voice calls through the comm. "Kam! We've spotted Republic transports headed this way. Looks like they're hoping to stop the swarm by destroying the nest. We have auto turrets active, but something tells me that won't be enough. Especially if they send in special forces."

"Damn! Do what you can. I'll make sure the inside is locked up tight. Hopefully Jerus, Cosen, and Jakito get back soon." I switch off the comm and bang on Korre's door. "We've got company. We'll stall them as best we can, but be ready in case they try to barge in."

I frown. Why couldn't any births in this family be simple? As I grip Korre's hand reassuringly, I look up at Xan and meet her eyes. I don't say it out loud because I don't want to worry Korre, but my expression is enough to convey my thoughts; [b]They are coming for the child.[/b]
