I nod to Draxxal, making sure to watch him for any sudden movements. “Yes. Thank you for coming alone. We need to build trust if we are going to work together.”

Draxxal


“I wouldn’t go that far. How about this though; you can trust that I’ll bring a quick end to your foolishness if you waste my time.” I look around the dark, empty plaza. “I’m surprised you actually showed up. I’ve heard much about the famous Jakito Twilight. I never pegged you for a traitor or a coward.”

Jakito Twilight


“Because I’m not either. I’m just tired of being dragged into conflicts I have no stake in. This war is between the Republic and the Mandalorians. I don’t see any reason why my family should get involved, so I’m looking to make a deal to get out of it.”

Draxxal


“You’ve said that. I’m not the Chancellor though, so how am I supposed to help? And also, why would I want to?”

Jakito Twilight


“Because your the High Justice. I don’t know exactly what that means, but I assume it has something to do with... justice. You could pass your ‘judgement’ upon me after I’ve proven my worth and give my family a pardon. Does that make sense?”

Cosen Greshh


From the shadows, I watch the meeting. I also keep my senses open for anyone else in the area, but so far nothing. How long is it gonna take for Stoneheart to get here? Or will he even show up at all?

I mentally groan to myself at how ridiculous that explanation from Jakito sounded, but I don't do anything else. I had already cleared one quadrant and didn't see anyone, now I was moving on to the next set of rooms and buildings.

"Alright. Out with it then. What have you got to tell me?"

Jakito Twilight


I hold up a finger. "Hang on. How do I know you'll keep your word?"

Draxxal


I half smile. "I've given you no word for me to keep. You summoned me, after all. You took the risk of trusting me. Accept only that there is no alternative. Either you give me the information you promised, or die here."

Jakito Twilight


"I... see your point. Alright, well here it goes. First off, I have a full list of Mandalorian battle plans and troop movements. Where they plan to go and where weak points in their defense are." I pull out a datachip. The information was partially accurate, but a lot of it was also false. Mand'alor had agreed to sacrifice a few of her lesser plans in order to insure my ruse went well. The weak points mentioned in the file would of course be bolstered before the Republic could attack them, and the patrol routes mentioned would be changed. All in all, nothing too devastating to lose.

Draxxal


I snatch the chip from his hand and examine it. "You don't mind if I check this, do you?" I take my datapad off my belt and plug in the chip. A moment later, a map appears with several highlighted locations and text explaining their significance. "Hmmm... Not bad. Not worth a full pardon yet, but a good start."

Slowly opening a door on a second floor, I sweep the room carefully with my night-vision enabled, a pair of vibrodaggers in hand versus a blaster. I could throw them much quieter than a blaster could fire after all. I glance out the window and note the hologram that Draxxal is looking at. Ah good, he's taking the bait.

"Alright, I also have the names of the top Revolution members and their hideouts..."

Draxxal


"I know that already. Their traitorous friend gave me everything."

Jakito Twilight


"Okay... I know they have some allies from off planet that are coming to help."

Draxxal


"Other than the Mandalorians? Really?" I look around the plaza. "It's Alderaan, right? I saw their message announcing their intentions to 'aid' the people of Coruscant. It doesn't take much to put two and two together. We've already sent a few scout ships to keep an eye on them. If they amass a fleet, we'll know."

Jakito Twilight


"I don't know what you're talking about. Their allies are from Dubrillion, not Alderaan. I can understand why that would be confusing, seeing as how they are both monarchies. But Salazar Greshh's widow is actually the queen of Dubrillion, so..."

Draxxal


"So I'll make sure the Chancellor knows to keep an eye on that sector as well. They didn't lift a finger to help Dantooine when it was blockaded, and they are only a few parsecs apart. Why would Queen Risha come all the way up here to help a bunch of Mandalorians and their criminal friends?" I place a hand on the techblade over my shoulder. "You're starting to run out of good intel. The next thing you say better be worth it or I'm going to be very upset."

Hearing the direction the conversation was going, I take up a position to breach out the window I was by quickly. Whether Stoneheart showed up or not, this was too good an opportunity to take care of one thorn to pass up.

Cursing to myself, I rush out of my hiding spot and activate my lightsaber. "Jakito! How could you betray us like this?"

Jakito Twilight


A spike of panic goes through me. Cosen had made her move too soon. I still had a few tricks I could pull, and I really didn't want her getting caught up in this. "Cosen? You followed me?"

Draxxal


"What's this? Looks like you weren't as careful as you made it sound."

Jakito Twilight


I glance between them. "Allow me to prove myself to you. I will subdue this girl. I know what a pain in the neck she's been." I activate my twin silver lightsabers.

Draxxal


I release my techblade. "Yes, do that. It'll at least be entertaining to watch."

Cosen Greshh


"I'll make it quick, traitor." I briefly make eye contact with Jakito, silently questioning how to play this. A moment later, I get my answer, as he rushes forward and gives a very deliberate wide swing that I can easily dodge. I reply by giving him a jump kick to the side, purposely not putting my full force into it.

This was getting to be too dicey, and I could tell. Quietly sheathing a dagger, I draw one of my pistols. If Stoneheart didn't make a move soon, if he was even here, then I would have to get involved.

This was not going well. I was literally improvising on the spot, and my order of fall back plans was completely messed up. Fighting Cosen was very far on my list, so this was a HUGE jump. If this didn't work out the way I wanted, I wasn't sure what else could be done. Where the hell was Stoneheart? Had we not made this public enough? Or did he know this was a trap? Too late to recalculate now. With a purposely dramatic looking swipe, I easily disarm Cosen and bring her to a knee. "You are beaten! Surrender, and we will treat you fairly."

Cosen Greshh


"I will never give up my secrets to either of you!"

Draxxal
'

"Just as well. I had no interest in taking you alive anyways." I nod to Jakito. "Kill her."

Jakito Twilight


My eyes widen. "You... don't want to question her?"

Draxxal


"Not really. She just said she isn't going to tell us anything. Kill her and I'll grant you and your family amnesty."

Jakito Twilight


"Well... damn. You're really not making this easy for me, are you?"

Fuck. Left with little choice in the matter, I sheath the other knife and draw my other blaster pistol before blasting through the window, my jetpack flaring and my pistols laying down a heavy barrage of fire. "Times up, Draxxal! Hope you made peace with yourself."

I dodge roll out of the way of Jerus' sudden attack. As I come to my feet, I leap behind the monument peak in the center of the plaza, breaking the line of sight between me and Jerus.

Cosen Greshh


I stand back up and pull my weapon to my hand. "Thanks, Jerus."

Jakito Twilight


I hold up a hand to signal Jerus to hold his fire. "It's over, Draxxal. No sense running. Come out and face us." After a moment of silence, I see Draxxal rising over the top of the mountain peak, and I ready my weapons to attack. Then i notice he hasn't drawn his weapon, and he isn't climbing; he's levitating. His eyes are wide, darting in every direction as a light gurgling escapes his stiff lips. Then, suddenly, he is hurled across the plaza and crashes through the window of a nearby restaurant. "What the hell?!"

I spin on the spot, raising a blaster and aiming at two different windows, each one belonging to a building I didn't get a chance to sweep before Cosen had rushed out. "Stoneheart! Come on out, no reason to play cat and mouse and I think we both know that."

I turn in a circle, trying to get a sense of where Stoneheart might be. I cannot sense anyone else here though. "Are you sure this guy even understands what we're saying? From what I hear, he doesn't seem to respond to reason most of the time."

Cosen Greshh


"He understands alright. he just doesn't seem to care." I hold up my lightsaber, ready to defend if necessary.

Jakito Twilight


"Well, I'm really getting tired of enemies like this. I hate the cloak and dagger routine so mu..." I feel something grab my leg, and I am immediatly pulled off my feet. I slam face first onto the ground, then quickly dragged towards the shop close to me. I try to roll onto my back so I can face my attacker.

Lord Stoneheart


I burst through the window of the shop and land on top of Jakito, immediately grabbing his throat with one hand and squeezing. My other hand holds my active crimson lightsaber, which I use to pin Jakito's lightsabers down.

Holstering my pistols and ejecting my lightsabers from their hidden compartments, the silver and orange blades ignite as I fire my jetpack and ram my shoulder into Stoneheart, knocking Jakito free and the murderer away from him. "Not a man of words, huh?" Now that the man was in a well lit area, Cosen could get a good look at his armor.

I see Stoneheart for the first time in the light, and I gasp in surprise. That armor... I would know it anywhere.

Lord Stoneheart


I barely pause after being knocked back, immediately rushing forward again to strike at Jerus with a serious of blows, both from my lightsaber and my fists, that drive him back.

Jakito Twilight


I rub my neck, coughing. I try my best to climb to my feet and help fight, even as my lungs struggle to draw breath.

As Stoneheart rushes me, I deactivate the silver blade and return it to it's hidden compartment to better match the lightsaber wielding murderer. Where his lightsaber strikes, mine blocks and counters and where he uses his fist, I do the same. However, moments into the exchange, it was clear that neither of us was really going to feel a punch from the other and I slam my fist into the ground to unleash a repulsor wave, buying me some space. Knowing Jakito was still trying to get his breath back, I glance at Cosen. "You gonna help or stand there stunned all day?"

I shake my head to clear my wind of distraction. Now was not the time. I rush over to Jakito and help him to stand. “Breath. You’re alright.”

Jakito Twilight


I nod, forcing myself to breath normally again. “Strong grip...” I reactive my lightsabers and rush in to intercept Stoneheart as he tries to come in for another attack. He seems to be holding nothing back now, and every clash of our blade sends shockwaves through my arms.

Cosen Greshh


I have my weapon ready, but my legs seem locked in place. I want to help, but something inside me is holding me back.

I jet forward, catching a heavy downwards blow that would have broken through Jakito's defenses, but it still makes a small crater around me. "Cosen Gressh, snap the hell out of it!"

With a cry of frustration, I blast all three combatants away from each other. I run towards Stoneheart. “Father, stop!”

Lord Stoneheart


Looks up towards Cosen, slowly rising to my feet. After a moment, my lightsaber extinguishes and I silently regard her.

Jakito Twilight


I make a confused face. “Father? What the hell?”

Cosen Greshh


“That’s my father’s armor. Only someone of the Greshh bloodline could wear it.” I look towards Stoneheart. “It is you, isn’t it?”

Lord Stoneheart


Walks towards Cosen, stopping only when I am right in front of her. My mask hides any emotion on my face. The only sound I make is my heavy breathing. Slowly, my hand reaches up to touch Cosen’s face... before slipping down to her neck and squeezing. I easily lift her up by the throat and toss her against the monument peak with a loud crash.

"What the hell?!" Running forwards, I fire off my jetpack and ram my knee into the helmeted face of who could supposedly be Salazar Gressh. "That's your daughter you son of a Sith Spawn!"
